The sound of Man Qi falling on the ground jarred the crowd from their surprise, yet the Barbarians were still mostly in shock.
“The young master is dead?”
“How is that possible? The young master is an Energy Shaping First Realm warrior. How can he lose to that brat?”
“It must be that charm. That Charm Master is definitely on another level!”
The angriest of them all was definitely Man Weiwu. He’d never thought that both of his own sons would die under Ye Mo’s hand. His eyes were filled with rage, and veins were visible on his head.
“How dare you kill my son! Men, take him down!” Man Weiwu shouted.
The few dozen warriors who had heard the order rushed towards Ye Mo. Ye Mo swung the Formation-Breaking Spear in a horizontal arc as a wave of energy that resembled a crescent moon shot towards the warriors, slicing all of them in half.
In an instant, the shattered stage filled with blood and bodies.
“I’ll kill you!” Man Weiwu shouted in rage as his energy exploded like a tsunami. He jumped off the ground and extended his hand towards Ye Mo’s head.
“How dare you try to kill him in front of me!” Xiao Yuanshan scolded. With a flick of his wrist, his True Energy formed a sword and pierced the tsunami-like energy as if it was made out of paper. Man Weiwu took a few steps back as Xiao Yuanshan appeared in front of Ye Mo.
Ye Mo stood behind Xiao Yuanshan as his Dragon Energies recovered. He’d exhausted all of his Dragon Energies during his fight with Man Qi. He’d fought with everything he had.
“Xiao Yuanshan!” Man Weiwu snapped. “Ye Mo killed my son with a charm. Do you think he deserves to live?”
“It was a fight to the death between them,” Xiao Yuanshan said calmly. “There were no rules against the use of charms, were there? Man Qi had sworn in the name of the Barbarian God. You’ll have to hand over the Frozen Silkworm and forget everything that Ye Mo has done to the Barbarians. You can even keep the silkworm, but I ask you to take your men and leave the Limestone City immediately.”
“So what?” Man Weiwu replied. “It was my son who’d sworn, not me! Now that he’s dead, naturally, it doesn’t count anymore.”
“How despicable!” Ye Mo scolded.
“Despicable? You killed both of my sons, I’ll have your head!” Man Weiwu roared.
The High Priest that was standing beside him shot his palm forward and a huge palm made out of solid energy shot towards Xiao Yuanshan.
The palm was different than any Ye Mo had witnessed before. Ye Mo had only seen palms that were made out of Spiritual Energy, yet the palm that the High Priest had shot was solid, made from the True Energy, at least 10 times stronger than its gas-like counterpart.
Xiao Yuanshan looked at the palm and let out a breath. He gently pushed Ye Mo away as he thrust his palm forward, sending out the same attack. Two palms clashed as True Energy shot out in all directions, crushing all of the houses around the arena. A few unlucky clan disciples were caught in the True Energy and evaporated into mists of blood instantly.
Qin Hao quickly ordered an evacuation as both clans started to run from the arena.
The Barbarians’ general took the chance and tried to capture Ye Mo, but he was stopped by Madame Xiao midway. Both of them were Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warriors and were equally strong.
Xiao Yuanshan and the High Priest began to exchange blows. Each time their attacks clashed, buildings and mountains were destroyed. It was devastating as the two fought on equal grounds. Madame Xiao and the general had also begun to fight each other.
Man Weiwu took the chance and landed in front of Ye Mo. He looked at Ye Mo who was breathing heavily and laughed. “Let’s see who can save you now!”
“Barbarians will always be Barbarians,” Ye Mo insulted. “You’ll never become a great tribe! Even if you kill me today, you Barbarians are destined to be destroyed!”
“Destroyed?” Man Weiwu laughed. “Once I kill you and rip that treasure off your body, we Barbarians will definitely rise to a higher status!”
Man Weiwu thrust his palm forward, and a huge energy palm inched towards Ye Mo. Ye Mo’s shirt was completely ripped from the pressure as it began to cut his body.
Just as Ye Mo was about to collapse, a huge charm appeared in front of Ye Mo and turned into pure energy. The energy palm hit the charm and caused a huge shockwave that sent Ye Mo flying backwards.
“It’s Ling’er!” Ye Mo shouted in shock and quickly looked inside his Energy Center. The quick-witted little girl turned into a ball of energy as her body slowly disappeared. Ling’er turned into a piece of golden charm and floated in Ye Mo’s Energy Center.
“Hurry up and run!” Ling’er shouted. “You’ll have to find the Goddess’s Tear to restore my spirit in 49 days before I completely disappear.”
Ye Mo was furious as Ling’er turned into a piece of charm.
Ling’er must’ve used all of her Spiritual Powers to use the Defensive Charm. And because she depleted all of her powers, she could not maintain her Spirit Form and reverted into a charm.
Ye Mo began to reminisce about how Ling’er would keep calling him stupid or idiot whenever he did something wrong. She would even sometimes call his name gently.
Ye Mo’s eyes filled with blood from the rage. Even his hair turned red. A rumbling sound came from his body as if his blood was boiling.
The Dragon Blood was going berserk, and this time, Ling’er wasn’t there to stop him.
The Bloodline of the Ancient Azure Dragon was about to activate. If Ye Mo had no control over it, it will consume Ye Mo and turn him into a merciless beast.
“What an enormous power!” Man Weiwu noticed the changes in Ye Mo and scolded. “He has to die!”
He made a bow from his energy and shot an energy arrow towards Ye Mo.
Xiao Yuanshan could feel the danger that was closing in on Ye Mo and wanted to help, but he was stalled by the High Priest as the High Priest landed a punch and sent him flying backward. Madame Xiao also suffered the same fate as the general also landed a hit on her.
The energy arrow soared towards Ye Mo as if it was seeking death. The arrow pierced through the wind, yet Ye Mo formed a claw made of Dragon Blood and tried to catch it mid-air.
The arrow pierced through the claw, but the claw also sent it off its course.
“I’ll see how you block the second one!” Man Weiwu roared and shot another arrow, faster and fiercer than the one he shot before. Ye Mo would definitely perish if the arrow found its target.
“By the order of the emperor, stop!” a voice suddenly shouted.
A man dressed in a white robe appeared in the sky with a golden badge in his hand. The badge was one foot long with a carving of the Dragon God on it as it emitted a golden light.
Every attack turned to nothing under the light, the arrow had disappeared, the energy attacks were dispelled. Even the Dragon Blood had evaporated under the bright light.
