Chapter 352: Can’t Hold Back Anymore
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Looking at Ye Changsheng being pushed to the point he had to use his final trump card, the Hellfire Curtain, Xuan Ji frowned.
When she initially suggested Ye Mo to enter the Luosha Prison, it was not for the sake of helping him. Rather, she was trying to get Ye Mo to kill himself at the prison, removing a rival from Ye Changsheng’s path.
Ye Mo’s performance had again and again proved that his talent far surpassed Ye Changsheng. This was something she could not deny.
The shocking attack of Ye Mo landed on the Hellfire Curtain, yet the attack was completely stopped, unable to deal any damage whatsoever to Ye Changsheng.
“Ye Mo, your strength is indeed surprising. With Energy Shaping Eight Realm, you were able to force me to use the Hellfire Curtain. But everything ends here. You won’t be able to break through the Hellfire Curtain’s defense,” Ye Changsheng’s frosty voice rang out from beneath the Hellfire Curtain.
“Is that so? You think you will be safe hiding in there?” Ye Mo sneered. Gazing at the fiery protective barrier, he activated the Rising Dragon Pillar within his body. A black whirlpool appeared within his body and a terrifying devouring force was channeled towards the Hellfire Curtain.
Next, under everyone’s gazes, the seemingly indestructible barrier warped as the flame started being pulled into Ye Mo’s body through the spear.
But before Ye Changsheng had the chance to be shocked by this, Ye Mo waved his spear the moment the Hellfire Curtain was broken and sent a spear light towards Ye Changsheng.
Swish! Swish!
With an extreme sharpness, the spear light broke through Ye Changsheng’s final line of defense and sliced his right hand off.
Immediately, Ye Changsheng’s mournful scream rang in the air, filling the Qingyun Martial Field.
His right arm was his sword arm, and Ye Mo had actually sliced his sword arm off. Blood splashed everywhere, and his Spirit of Hellfire was sent flying away from him.
Instantly, his presence dropped like a leaking balloon.
Ye Mo grabbed at the Spirit of Hellfire, and with a flick of his finger on the blade of the sword, all the energy Ye Changsheng had channeled onto the Spirit of Hellfire earlier was dispersed.
“Ye Mo, I’ll kill you!” After losing one arm, Ye Changsheng lost his mind and charged at Ye Mo.
Wielding the Spirit of Hellfire, Ye Mo pointed at Ye Changsheng and said, “After losing an arm and Spirit of Hellfire, what else can you use to fight me?”
“Bastard!” Elder Yun He roared and soared to the sky with his energy wings unfurling behind him before slamming his palm down at Ye Mo’s head.
Looking at the incoming palm, Ye Mo sneered before pouring his Dragon Power into the Spirit of Hellfire. Then, he waved the sword, sending a destructive power out of the Spirit of Hellfire, setting the incoming palm aflame before the palm ultimately exploded.
This Elder Yun He of the Legal Division was no longer suppressing his strength.
“What is the meaning of this, Elder Yun He?” asked Ye Mo after destroying the energy palm after a sneer.
“A spar between league members should end when a result is determined. Yet you acted so ruthlessly and has severed Ye Changsheng’s arm. Do you know that Ye Changsheng is League Chief Xuan Ji’s adopted son?” said Yun He furiously.
“I have never intended to spare him today. That Ye Changsheng had tried harming me numerous times. In the past, I was too weak and was of no significance to the higher ups. Thus, I have been keeping silent about it. But now that I am strong enough to fight for the Chief Elect position, I no longer mind bringing light to the truth,” said Ye Mo loudly after scanning the vicinity, seemingly intending to vent everything in his heart.
Ye Changsheng had tried harming him many times ever since he joined the Qingyun League. The only thing he could do was stay patient and keep silent about it. If it wasn’t for his great survival skills, he would have died 10 times over.
“Since Ye Changsheng has tried to harm me so many times, I shall kill him before everyone today,” Ye Mo’s firm voice resounded throughout the field.
Everyone was hit by a realization when they heard this. So these two were not only fighting over the Chief Elect position. They were already enemies.
“You are getting too arrogant. Even if Ye Changsheng has harmed you before, you should let the Legal Division deal with him. How can you act as you wish here?” Yun He berated furiously. He then shouted, “Elite league members, move together, capture Ye Mo and take him to the torture chamber.”
“Enough. Yun He, you may back down,” suddenly, a calm voice rang out. Then, a white figure flitted past before Yao Qingyun appeared on the middle of the Qingyun Martial Field.
“League leader!” Ye Mo cupped his fists at Yao Qingyun in respect.
“Xuan Ji, how do you plan to deal with this?” Yao Qingyun waved his hand at Ye Mo before looking up at League Chief Xuan Ji and asked.
“After losing one arm, Ye Changsheng can no longer battle True Energy Realm experts. As for Ye Mo, his punishment is death!”
Xuan Ji’s voice rumbled on like the rumble of the war drum. The sound wave roiled everywhere, enabling everyone to hear her clearly.
Xuan Ji’s opinion shocked everyone more than the might she displayed. She actually wanted to execute Ye Mo, one who was an even bigger genius than Ye Changsheng was.
“Haha, Ye Mo, so what if I harmed you before? Lord Xuan Ji will help me. Your life for an arm? This is worth it,” said Ye Changsheng with his hand on his severed arm. He had a twisted expression on his face as since he had lost an arm, no pills could help him regrow an arm.
Ye Mo’s appearance had completely ruined his future. For him, even killing Ye Mo would not be sufficient to satiate his anger.
Some elders of Qingyun League were extremely astonished when they heard Xuan Ji’s words as well. A genius like Ye Mo should be nurtured instead of executed.
“League Chief Xuan Ji, I can’t accept this. I am also a member of Xuan Ji Sub-League and has the qualification to fight for the Chief Elect position. With my victory today, I should be the next Chief Elect of Xuan Ji Sub-League. If you insist on punishing me for severing his arm, let me ask you a question. Do you think I will even stay alive if I was the one defeated instead?” Ye Mo questioned fearlessly.
“That does not matter. Today, you shall die,” suddenly, a shout rang out. Yanzhi appeared, riding on a crane. Behind her was Li Tianhe.
The crane landed slowly before Yanzhi and Li Tianhe leapt off the crane.
“Li Tianhe, speak out. Say everything you know,” said Yanzhi as she glared at Ye Mo coldly.
Ye Mo frowned when he saw Li Tianhe. Had Li Tianhe revealed everything?
“Ye Mo, we initially have no grudges with each other, but you are the one who forced my hand. League leader, Lord Xuan Ji, Ye Mo was in fact the culprit of Xue Xiu’s death. He first forced me to kill Xue Xiu before forcing me to keep that secret and framing the Yin Poison Society instead. He was the one who ordered me to do everything,” shouted Li Tianhe loudly.
“Li Tianhe, what nonsense are you saying?” Ye Mo’s face fell as he asked.
“Hmph. Ye Mo, I could have hidden everything for you. But since you have killed my brother Li Tianyang, I would rather die together with you. You must pay for my brother’s life.”
Li Tianhe spoke with his face flushed red, venting the sorrow within his heart.
“What? Your brother Li Tianyang is dead?” Ye Mo was alarmed. Then, he shifted his gaze to the couple. Seeing the sinister expression they had, Ye Mo instantly understood the truth.
“It’s you two?” Ye Mo pointed at Yanzhi and Ye Changsheng before asking furiously.
“What are you talking about? Li Tianhe, you seem to have forgotten to mention something?” said Yanzhi with a smile. Her smile was as charming as an succubus, yet when she looked at Ye Mo, her gaze was like a viper’s gaze.
“Song Yang was killed by Ye Mo as well!” Li Tianhe no longer cared about his own life and declared loudly.
