It was unexpected that instead of the big figure, several small lords came to visit.

Some came to curry favor, hoping the Wolf Lord wouldn’t act against them, while others came with a slight threat, leaving harsh words before departing.

Ye Qiu didn’t pay them any mind, nor did he take action against any of the lords. He had a premonition that the big figure would soon appear, and compared to dealing with the small lords, it would be faster to resolve matters with the big figure.

Taishan was currently directly managing the entire territory of the half-orcs, busily training them each day.

Ye Qiu was inside his room, holding two red Blood Crystals, which were extracted from the bodies of Golden Leopard and Crippled Wolf, equivalent to the Dantian of human Martial Artists.

Ye Qiu had obtained them in the ancient land before and they had provided him with considerable help. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

But now, even Blood Crystals of the Returning Ruins Realm level were not very useful to him.

Ye Qiu wanted to continue his ascent and transcend tribulations to become a Saint. He had reached the pinnacle at the Returning Ruins Realm.

Handling the Blood Crystals was simply Ye Qiu trying to study them, but it was obvious they were merely condensed essences, similar to pills.

This thing wasn’t needed by him, but it could be used by those around him, so Ye Qiu promptly put them in his Storage Ring.

Afterward, Ye Qiu began cultivating, organizing his martial path. After deducing various Cultivation Techniques in his mind, he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t yet cultivated the fourth calamity technique he obtained earlier.

With a thought, the technique for the fourth calamity flashed in his mind. The Twelve Calamity Technique helped him overcome many hardships in the initial stages, but later on, his strength improved rapidly, and he couldn’t find a corresponding Seal Stone, which caused a delay.

However, two Seal Stones were discovered successively in the Eastern Wilderness, prompting Ye Qiu to take it seriously once again.

It’s unknown whether there are Seal Stones in the Southern Wilderness too, but regardless of that, this Cultivation Technique is extraordinary. If he could collect all twelve Seal Stones, it would be very terrifying.

After all, this is a technique that allows surpassing levels.

Ye Qiu wouldn’t abandon cultivation just because this technique isn’t temporarily helping him.

Once the technique passed through his mind, it started operating within his body, and soon, he easily grasped the fourth calamity.

Of course, this was mainly because Ye Qiu’s current strength far exceeded the level of the fourth calamity technique, making the cultivation easy and fast.

While Ye Qiu was cultivating, a huge vehicle drove into the Wolf Lord’s territory.

Soon, the vehicle arrived at the Wolf Lord’s base, and no half-orcs dared to obstruct or disrespect it because they recognized this vehicle as belonging to the big figure.

When Ye Qiu heard that the big figure had sent someone here, he stopped cultivating.

A young man slowly got down from the vehicle.

"Quite the Wolf King. After expanding your power recently, you don’t even regard me? You won’t even come out to greet me."

A voice spread throughout the base.

To be honest, if it had been the previous Wolf Lord, he would have come out to greet him, but now the Wolf Lord is Ye Qiu’s avatar, and naturally, with Ye Qiu’s disposition, he wouldn’t lower himself even knowing the man had come, he didn’t come out.

The man walked slowly, and the surrounding half-orc troops all knelt down as he walked.

His steps were light, but each step seemed to tread upon people’s hearts. This was a very peculiar sensation and was achievable naturally because of the man’s extraordinary strength.

Instantly, the man stepped into the stone house.

Ye Qiu and the Wolf Lord were both sitting there, looking leisurely.

"Hehe..." The man saw this scene and let out a cold laugh, "Wolf King, do you want to be enemies with my father?"

Obviously, the man was hinting for the Wolf Lord to quickly lower his head and admit fault, but the Wolf Lord acted as if he hadn’t heard, continuing to sit there, ignoring the man.

"You really don’t know your place, do you? You think that killing the Golden Leopard means you can be enemies with my father. Originally, I came to knock some sense into you for my father, but forget it, you’re better off dead."

Boom.

The man raised his hand, causing the entire stone house to tremble and then collapse.

Three figures leaped out, Ye Qiu, the Wolf Lord’s avatar, and the man!

Standing in mid-air, the man didn’t pay attention to Ye Qiu, directly attacking the Wolf Lord.

The man’s strength wasn’t weak, initially wielding the peak power of the Returning Ruins Realm. However, he didn’t manage to defeat the Wolf Lord, and Ye Qiu grinned. Using the technique of soul separation, he controlled the Wolf Lord, making it more powerful than the previous Wolf Lord, after all, this soul now belonged to Ye Qiu.

Aii!

The man was surprised that his moves were ineffective, and his aura began to change.

Swish swish swish...

The aura surged, directly surpassing the Returning Ruins Realm, entering the Saint Realm.

The man spoke calmly, "You can die now."

Whoosh!

A gigantic red spherical light shot over, emerging from the man’s palm.

If it struck the Wolf Lord’s avatar, even with Ye Qiu’s soul, it couldn’t withstand it, for this was a real Saint’s attack, unlike the previous half-Saint Golden Leopard, which could at least resist briefly. But the real Saint’s attack could only be withstood by Ye Qiu himself, or if the avatar’s physical body was strong, otherwise, it could easily be shattered.

The Wolf Lord’s avatar still had great use, so Ye Qiu couldn’t let it be destroyed. Suddenly, he flashed forward, stretched out his hand, and directly blocked the attack.

Bang.

It was like fireworks, that strike illuminated the four directions.

The man frowned because he discovered that his attack didn’t manage to eliminate the opponent, whose aura still persisted.

"You truly are Saint-level. It seems that guy did not deceive me. It really was you who killed the Golden Leopard. I figured, how could the mere Wolf Lord possess such audacity?" the man suddenly said.

The reason Ye Qiu didn’t even bother to pretend or cooperate was because he had already noticed, even before the man stepped down from the car, that there was a half-orc elder inside the man’s vehicle, and that elder was formerly Golden Leopard’s subordinate.

Given that the opponent appeared in the man’s car, Ye Qiu understood the man’s intent — it was to avenge Golden Leopard, so Ye Qiu didn’t bother to cooperate.

Instead, let’s reveal our strengths directly.

"A Saint Realm human powerhouse, tsk tsk... It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a strong human," the man seemed to fear Ye Qiu, even though Ye Qiu had suddenly displayed the power of a Saint.

"By the way, you’re leading the initial attack while your father lurks in the shadows. I can’t help but pity you. If I instantly kill you, and your father can’t save you in time, don’t you think that would be a great loss?" Ye Qiu suddenly said.

Whoosh.

The man’s expression changed, revealing surprise.

"Quite the human. I might as well reveal myself, so what? Don’t think one or two sentences can turn us father and son against each other."

As Ye Qiu finished speaking, another Saint aura appeared. Judging by the presence, Ye Qiu knew that the big figure possessing the Wolf Lord’s soul was this person before him.

Arrived so quickly!

Ye Qiu sighed inwardly.
