Dragon Blood Saint Emperor
Chapter 184 - 185: Celestial Sword Sect
Sword light cascaded down as a group of handsome young men, each with an Ancient Sword on their back, strode through the air.
Their bodies radiated a terrifyingly sharp aura. With raised brows, they carried themselves with an air of absolute arrogance.
Seeing the newcomers, Yinn Su’s face lit up with joy. These were her fellow sect members, arrived at the critical moment to save her.
Ye Wushuang stood his ground, his gaze cold as he watched them.
There were ten of them in total. All had Cultivations at the True Essence Fifth Layer, though the two at the front were slightly higher.
One was at the True Essence Sixth Layer!
The other was a young man with flowing black hair, at the True Essence Eighth Layer. He stood firm in the void like a Divine Sword soaring to the heavens, its aura threatening to sunder the very sky—truly terrifying!
Ye Wushuang immediately felt a strong sense of threat. Clearly, even if this man wasn’t the strongest disciple, he was very close to that level.
Ye Wushuang’s gaze lingered on him for half a breath before shifting to the young man at the True Essence Sixth Layer!
This young man was dressed in white robes, his hair held up by a silver coronet. He was exceptionally handsome, and at this moment, he was holding an Ancient Sword, staring coldly at Ye Wushuang as killing intent flickered in his eyes.
Ye Wushuang didn’t have to think twice. The sword strike from before had come from this man. If he had been any slower to retreat, he would have been a goner.
"What’s your name? Which Sect are you a disciple of?" The young man left the group, descending step by step from the void as he approached Ye Wushuang.
His words were haughty and condescending, filled with a commanding tone, as if Ye Wushuang was obligated to answer and had no right to refuse.
Ye Wushuang felt a sense of revulsion and replied coolly, "Why should I tell you?"
"Why?"
As he spoke, the young man landed. "I just want to know what backing gives you the right to lay a hand on my woman. What gives you the nerve to try and kill her!"
"That bitch deserved to die!" Before Ye Wushuang could answer, the young woman at his side snapped, her anger from before still not having subsided.
"Say that again, and I’ll kill you on the spot." The young man’s eyes narrowed, a murderous glint suddenly flashing within them.
The sharp, cold killing intent made the young woman flinch, a trace of fear in her eyes.
Seeing this, Yinn Su sneered. She shot a venomous glare at Ye Wushuang before walking over to the young man’s side.
But unexpectedly, the moment she reached his side, she began to sob sorrowfully, looking utterly pitiful and stirring one’s sympathy.
"Brother Songg, you have to kill that brat! He... he..."
Standing beside Xuan Song, Yinn Su looked as if she had suffered a terrible injustice, hesitating as if she couldn’t bring herself to speak.
At this, Xuan Song’s brow furrowed. "What did he do to you?"
"WAAAH!" Hearing his question, Yinn Su burst into tears. "Brother Songg, that animal... he was about to molest me! Two of our junior brothers died trying to protect me, and I had to fight for my life just to protect my innocence! But then the brute showed his true colors and tried to kill me!"
Yinn Su turned the tables with her false accusation, every word crafted to be damning. With this group as her backup, how could she not use them? She was determined to see Ye Wushuang dead; otherwise, the hatred in her heart would never be sated!
"To dare touch my woman... you deserve to die!"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Song’s killing intent blazed. He stared at Ye Wushuang as if looking at a corpse.
In the sky, the others who heard Yinn Su’s account all had their expressions turn frigid. "He dared to kill a disciple of our Celestial Sword Sect! He must be executed!"
"He must be executed!"
The indifferent voices called out one after another, each word like a cold sword, chilling one to the bone!
"It was clearly you who tried to kill us for our treasures, and now you’re framing someone else! You’re so shameless!" The young woman beside Ye Wushuang was furious. She never imagined Yinn Su would twist the truth and slander them like this.
"You shut your mouth, or I’ll kill you too!"
Xuan Song rebuked coldly, his tone incredibly domineering. "I don’t care if he was framed. He dared to make a move, so today, he will die."
With that, Xuan Song revealed his sharp aura, unleashing it with a bone-chilling, icy intent!
Ye Wushuang stood there quietly, his expression betraying no emotion as he calmly gazed at Xuan Song.
Beside him, the young woman’s expression changed when she saw that Xuan Song not only refused to listen to an explanation but would kill them even if he did. She hurriedly said to Ye Wushuang, "They’re disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect! They control a powerful form of Sword Dao Slaughter. You have to be careful!"
"Celestial Sword Sect?" Ye Wushuang murmured.
"The Celestial Sword Sect is a Major Influence in the Endless Wilderness," the young woman explained, her pretty face etched with gravity. "They cultivate the Sword Dao, and their Sword Dao Slaughter is terrifying—much stronger than that of ordinary Cultivators."
She was extremely wary of Xuan Song, who was at the True Essence Sixth Layer. After all, if she, at the True Essence Fifth Layer, were to face him, she would surely be defeated in less than ten moves!
"That brat dared to touch Yinn Su. Senior Brother Xuan Song will probably chop him to pieces with his Cold Ice Sword Technique!"
"He’s just a piece of trash at the True Essence Third Layer. Even I could kill him easily, let alone Senior Brother Xuan Song. As if he’d even need to use the Cold Ice Sword Technique for that."
Watching the tense, sword-drawn standoff below, the disciples in the sky began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Silence!"
Suddenly, the young man with flowing hair at the front barked the cold command.
Hearing this, the others flinched, their eyelids twitching. They were all extremely wary of him—after all, this was the Celestial Sword Sect’s strongest disciple, Liuu Yifei.
When he was only at the True Essence Seventh Layer, he had already cultivated the Celestial Sword Sect’s Supreme Combat Skill, the Celestial Sword Technique, to the Great Success stage. With it, he even defeated an elder at the True Essence Ninth Layer.
Now that he had broken through to the True Essence Eighth Layer, he was even more terrifying. Wary of him, they immediately shut their mouths.
Seeing that they had quieted down, Liuu Yifei turned to Xuan Song below and said coldly, "Finish him off quickly. We need to get to the Earth Palace to meet up with the Sect Master and the others. Don’t delay our journey."
Xuan Song replied, "Don’t worry. He’s just a piece of trash. It won’t take long!"
’Trash?’
A cold smile touched Ye Wushuang’s lips. Done with wasting words, he made his move.
He took the initiative, raising a single hand. Countless Thunder Swords shot forth, forming a massive net of lightning.
The lightning flashed, filled with destructive power, as the net descended from the sky.
Words were cheap. Only a real fight would show who the real trash was. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Hmph!
Xuan Song snorted coldly. His Ancient Sword sang as a brilliant radiance shot toward the heavens.
"A pathetic attack! It won’t even withstand a single blow! Perish!"
Xuan Song shouted and soared into the sky. His sword radiance, dozens of feet long, tore through the lightning net with utter ease!
BOOM!
However, the instant his Splendid Sword Radiance tore through the net, a large foot emerged from the void right above his head, growing larger and larger in his pupils.
It was Ye Wushuang’s foot.
The moment of the attack, he had already used Shadow Kill to ascend into the air.
Before Xuan Song could even react, the large foot slammed down on the top of his head. PENG! His body shot downward like a cannonball, smashing heavily into the ground.
The once-arrogant Xuan Song was no longer at ease, now a completely wretched sight!
"Trash!"
Ye Wushuang coldly spat out a single word. His body didn’t stop; he took the opportunity to stomp down again.
’How is this possible?’
Watching this sudden turn of events, everyone from the Celestial Sword Sect was stunned!
