Ye Mo landed atop the beam in the main hall and prepared to first kill off those bandits idling around. Suddenly, a forceful sound rang from the side. “Who is it?” This was actually uttered by two people at the same time.
Next, two old men, one black and one white charged into the hall.
“Lords, is there anything I can help with?” asked a bandit deferentially.
Black and White Impermanence glanced around the room, and even when their gazes landed on those scantily dressed women, they did not pause.
“Up!” Black Impermanence shouted as he formed a huge shadow whip that whipped towards Ye Mo.
“Black Impermanence’s Black Whip!” This was an extremely powerful shadow technique capable of transforming shadow into a whip. Like a demonic serpent, the shadow whip soared towards Ye Mo, whizzing through the air without making a sound.
However, just as the black shadow reached Ye Mo, he instantly transformed into an afterimage that shot away. The black whip struck nothing, splitting the beam into two instead.
“Who are you? You dare intrude upon our valley?” Black Impermanence shouted as he withdrew his Black Whip. His gaze was fixed on Ye Mo as a black energy undulated around his body. He was prepared to capture Ye Mo at a moment’s notice.
Ye Mo studied the two before him. One was completely black while the other was completely white. These two were definitely the Black and White Impermanence, the two True Energy Realm powerhouses of the Northwest Bandits.
“I presume you are the Black and White Impermanence? I heard that one of you cultivated a black shadow cultivation technique while the other cultivated the white shadow cultivation technique. From the looks of it, you two probably have quite a status among the Northwest Bandits. Tell me, what other powerhouses do you have here? And where is the One Armed Butcher?” Ye Mo spoke as he crossed his arms on his chest.
This valley was very large. As such, he had to gather sufficient information to locate the Star Map spoken of by the bandits. Since the bandits had been murdering and plundering for so many years, there were probably many hidden treasures within this valley.
“Who are you? Probably someone from the Chen Clan Army again? To avoid our detection and sneak into the valley with a strength of Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, you are indeed exceptional. Unfortunately for you, you have encountered us. I will capture you right here and dig your Energy Center out before hanging your head at the mouth of the valley to show the Chen Clan Army that we, the Bloodlust Bandits are not that easy to deal with.
The faces of the Black and White Impermanence were shrouded by black and white shadows, hiding their expressions. But from how they spoke, it was clear they were incredibly ruthless and cruel.
“Capturing me? Just with the two of you? Fine. Since you are not willing to tell me, I have no choice but to kill you two before taking my time to search the valley. Since you two are early True Energy Realm warriors, your deaths will probably constitute a great loss for the Northwest Bandits, right?” Ye Mo said before he moved with no hesitation. He had no intention to drag this out.
When he punched, a shiny Dragon Glove formed on his arm while the sound of a dragon roaring thundered in the air. An intense radiance shone, seemingly capable of piercing through all darkness. When his punch descended, it was as if a dragon had descended from the skies intending to destroy everything. When the Black and White Impermanence saw this, their expressions shifted. Waving their hands repeatedly, they created a black and white shield in the air.
“Your cultivation methods are shadow-based, while my power is the most glorious of lights. Shadows only exist because of light. So die!” Ye Mo howled as he erupted with his Bright Dragon Power. In the blink of an eye, the black and white shield was penetrated, followed by the destruction of their shadow armors.
Black and White Impermanence flew backwards before crashing heavily onto the ground. They were defeated by a single move. Although they were True Energy Realm powerhouses, and practiced the cultivation method of black and white shadows that worked very powerful together, once faced with Ye Mo’s power of light, their cultivation method was completely suppressed and easily defeated.
“How is that possible? We can fight even Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouse when we work together. Is he a Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouse? Not possible! There was not an ounce of True Energy Power in him,” said Black Impermanence with a look of disbelief.
“It’s because of the Light of Glorious Sun contained in his energy. How is that possible? That is the power of the Glorious Sun! How has he so easily mastered it?” asked the White Impermanence with shock on his face.
Some of the women started kneeling down as they kowtowed to Ye Mo and said, “Lord, please save us. We were all kidnapped by them.”
“Don’t worry. The Chen Clan Army will be here soon. Hide somewhere first and don’t let anyone find you. When the Chen Clan Army start keeping the bandits busy, we will be able to save all of you,” Ye Mo said.
“Thank you, lord!” They kowtowed repeatedly before running to hide in a flustered manner.
“You have two options. The first, death. The second, list out all the powerhouses of the Northwest Bandits. Also tell me where your leader is. Tell me everything,” Ye Mo said as he waved his hand and created a Light of Glorious Sun that enveloped the both of them. With the Light of Glorious Sun, he could torture the two who practiced shadow cultivation method to death if he so wished.
Immediately, the two True Energy Realm powerhouses started screaming miserably while blood started seeping from their pores. The Light of Glorious Sun was a divine radiance that repressed sinister powers greatly.
“Ahhhh! You want us to talk? Impossible!” shouted White Impermanence in pain.
“How unyielding,” said Ye Mo as he shot out a Glorious Sun Power from his fingers. Immediately, White Impermanence’s body turned still on the ground. Just like that, a True Energy Realm powerhouse was killed.
Black Impermanence’s pupils shrunk when he saw that. He immediately shouted, “I’ll tell you! Apart from us who are the grand elders, there are two deputy chiefs as well. They are middle True Energy Realm powerhouses and should be resting in their residences at this moment. The chief is not in the valley at the moment.”
Ye Mo grinned and continued questioning him. He needed to figure out the cultivation method cultivated by the two deputy chiefs, and what the chief was doing leaving the valley.
When Ye Mo got all the information he wanted, he shot out another stream of Bright Dragon Power from his fingers and killed Black Impermanence.
“Liar! You promised to spare me!” shouted the Black Impermanence before he collapsed on the ground with a resigned expression.
To be kind to an enemy was to be cruel towards oneself.
Ye Mo’s mood improved greatly when he found out that the One Armed Butcher was not around and that there were only the two deputy chiefs. The pressure he was feeling had lessened greatly with the chief not being around.
His next task was to assassinate the two deputy chiefs before sneaking into the chief’s residence and stealing all his cultivation resources.
