Yun Mengzi took a step forward, and in the distance, space-time suddenly split apart. A blood-red sword light shattered, followed by a figure frantically retreating!
That figure was Ye Xuan!
Ye Xuan retreated tens of thousands of meters before stopping. As he did, Yun Mengzi appeared before him.
Looking at Ye Xuan, Yun Mengzi’s brows furrowed slightly!
Unease!
Seeing Ye Xuan, a faint sense of unease stirred deep within him!
Not only that—the stronger his killing intent grew, the more intense that unease became!
Not simple!
Yun Mengzi studied Ye Xuan, hesitating to act for a moment!
At that point, Xiao Xiao and the others caught up. Seeing Yun Mengzi hold back, Xiao Xiao and Zong Shou’s faces darkened.
Worry!
Both feared Yun Mengzi might turn on them, just like the Enforcement Sect’s ancestor had!
Then, Yun Mengzi chuckled softly, “Interesting. You can actually make me feel danger!”
His eyes flashed with killing intent. “But I enjoy going against the grain!”
With that, he stepped forward again. The moment his foot landed, a terrifying force crashed down on Ye Xuan from above!
Ye Xuan opened his palm.
*Buzz!*
A sword light shot skyward.
*Rip!*
The sword tore through the heavens, shattering the oppressive force!
Seeing this, Yun Mengzi’s eyes narrowed. He suddenly threw a punch from afar.
*Boom!*
Ye Xuan was blasted into a mysterious primal space-time abyss. As he fell, a black space-time divine lightning streaked down!
Ye Xuan didn’t dodge!
*Boom!*
The lightning plunged into the Qingxuan Sword, fully absorbed!
Yun Mengzi frowned. Zong Shou hurriedly said, “Grandmaster, that sword in his hand can ignore space-time!”
The sword!
Yun Mengzi’s gaze fell on the Qingxuan Sword. After a moment, a trace of surprise flickered in his eyes. “This sword is indeed extraordinary!”
He opened his right hand and pressed down lightly. Instantly, the space-time around Ye Xuan morphed into a massive net.
Seeing this, Zong Shou and Xiao Xiao’s faces twisted. Damn it—they’d just said this guy could ignore space-time, yet Yun Mengzi was still using space-time power against him!
Far off, Ye Xuan didn’t dodge. He let the net envelop him—and, unsurprisingly, absorbed it completely.
A flicker of astonishment crossed Yun Mengzi’s eyes. “It really can ignore all space-time… interesting!”
Zong Shou hesitated, then said, “Grandmaster, his bloodline is extremely unique. The longer this drags on, the stronger he gets…”
The implication was clear: *Kill him already!*
Yun Mengzi turned to Zong Shou. “Are you teaching me how to act?”
His voice was icy, piercing to the bone!
Zong Shou’s face paled. “I wouldn’t dare!”
Yun Mengzi glanced at him, then back at Ye Xuan. He was about to speak when a blood-red sword stabbed toward him like a thunderbolt!
A flicker of disdain flashed in Yun Mengzi’s eyes. He snapped two fingers together.
Boom!
The Qingxuan Sword was caught—but the next moment, his expression changed drastically. He released the sword and retreated a thousand meters!
The instant he’d gripped it, the Qingxuan Sword had started absorbing him!
Even souls could be devoured?
Disbelief surged in Yun Mengzi’s eyes!
At that moment, Ye Xuan appeared before him again. A sword slashed down from above!
Rip!
Space-time tore apart!
A ruthless glint flashed in Yun Mengzi’s eyes. With a flick of his sleeve, a powerful force erupted!
Boom!
It clashed head-on with Ye Xuan’s sword. Then, Ye Xuan roared.
Boom!
A tidal wave of killing intent and malice engulfed Yun Mengzi, the sheer force briefly dazing his mind. In that split second, the Qingxuan Sword plunged into his skull!
Yun Mengzi froze!
Zong Shou and the others froze too!
Gone, just like that?
Ye Xuan stepped back dozens of meters. The Qingxuan Sword began frantically devouring Yun Mengzi’s soul!
Yun Mengzi glared at Ye Xuan, his face twisted in fury. “You’ll pay for this!”
Ye Xuan raised a middle finger.
Yun Mengzi exploded with rage, roaring like a beast, “You ant! You dare mock me…!”
The Qingxuan Sword trembled violently, then fully absorbed his soul.
Once it finished, it turned into a sword light and returned to Ye Xuan’s hand.
Gone!
Zong Shou and the others stood in silence.
Ye Xuan’s strength grew with every passing moment—truly limitless!
Ye Xuan suddenly turned to them. Zong Shou’s eyes flashed with dread. “Retreat!”
He didn’t want to fight anymore!
Because he couldn’t win!
Without hesitation, Zong Shou led the few remaining Yun Realm experts in a desperate escape!
But Xiao Xiao didn’t flee!
He stared at Ye Xuan. “Ye Xuan, I know you’re not mad. I know I’m doomed. Before I die, I want to see the one behind you! This request…”
*Rip!*
A blood-red sword pierced his forehead, blood spraying from the back of his head!
Ye Xuan’s lips curled. “Not worthy!”
With that, he turned into a blood-red sword light and vanished at the horizon.
The Qingxuan Sword devoured Xiao Xiao’s soul. Moments later, it too turned into a sword light and disappeared.
Xiao Xiao was no more!
Ye Xuan didn’t pursue Zong Shou and the others. Instead, he went straight to the Enforcement Sect. By now, chaos reigned there—the Sect Leader’s soul tablet had shattered, signaling his death!
Not only that, all the No-Path Realm experts who’d gone out were gone!
Some quick-witted ones had fled, but others remained…
That day, a blood-red sword flew into the Enforcement Sect. The next moment, screams echoed ceaselessly.
Ye Xuan stood above the sect, eyes closed. Blood waves surged from his body, soon turning the sky into a sea of crimson!
Little Pagoda suddenly spoke, “Young Master, are you actually mad or not?”
Truth be told, it couldn’t tell!
If he was mad, he was still cunning as hell and even mocked people. If he wasn’t, it could sense his bloodline power fully activated.
Ye Xuan didn’t respond, his eyes shut tight. A closer look revealed his body trembling slightly!
Little Pagoda pressed, “Young Master, are you really mad or faking it?”
Ye Xuan opened his palm, and Little Pagoda appeared. It stammered, “Y-Young Master, what are you…?”
It knew the terror of the Mad Demon Bloodline. Back when its original master activated it, he’d been unrecognizable to even his closest kin.
Ye Xuan didn’t act. He just stared at Little Pagoda, his eyes like a blood sea—utterly terrifying!
Seeing he wasn’t attacking, Little Pagoda relaxed a bit. It was about to speak when Ye Xuan suddenly punched it.
*Bang!*
Little Pagoda was sent flying thousands of meters!
“Ahh!”
A shrill scream echoed from the horizon!
Ye Xuan vanished, reappearing to punch Little Pagoda again.
*Bang!*
It flew off once more…
At the sky’s edge, Little Pagoda roared, “Young Master… are you really mad or faking it?!”
No answer!
Ye Xuan kept chasing and beating it!
After about fifteen minutes, he stopped. Little Pagoda cowered at the edge of the sky, trembling.
Ye Xuan opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword—now a vivid, demonic red—flew to him.
Below, not a single soul remained in the Enforcement Sect!
Sect annihilated!
Ye Xuan stowed the sword, turned into a blood-red sword light, and vanished at the horizon. But he soon doubled back, appearing before Little Pagoda. He grabbed it, pulled it into his body, and then shot off again.
Inside Ye Xuan, Little Pagoda was dazed. “Damn it… Young Master, are you mad or not?”
No response!
Little Pagoda fumed!
This Young Master might not be mad… Did it just take that beating for nothing?
Should it rebel?
The thought startled it—lately, it’d been getting a bit too bold!
…
**Dao Lin Kingdom**
King Zhongshan stood on the city wall, gazing at the sky, a bewildered look on his face.
Ye Xuan had killed dozens of No-Path Realm experts!
That was the news he’d just received!
King Zhongshan fell silent.
He’d assumed Ye Xuan’s backer would step in. He never imagined Ye Xuan would wipe out those No-Path Realm experts single-handedly!
It was beyond belief!
Then, Hidden Blade appeared. He said gravely, “The Enforcement Sect is gone!”
King Zhongshan asked softly, “He destroyed it?”
Hidden Blade nodded. “He’s headed to Yun Realm now!”
King Zhongshan went quiet.
Hidden Blade did too, feeling a surge of relief. Initially, he’d wanted to kill Ye Xuan—hoping to preempt the Enforcement Sect and Yun Realm, take Ye Xuan and Yan Banshan’s inheritances for himself!
But King Zhongshan had convinced him otherwise!
Good thing he hadn’t acted—otherwise, Hidden Assassination Pavilion would be history!
Hidden Blade looked at King Zhongshan. “What now?”
King Zhongshan laughed, “The Enforcement Sect’s gone—their territories… haha…”
Hidden Blade hesitated. “He’s the one who destroyed them. Is it right for us to take them?”
King Zhongshan grinned, “Easy fix. We claim the territories and pay him in Divine Extreme Crystals!”
Hidden Blade nodded slightly. “Alright!”
King Zhongshan was about to speak when a shadowy figure appeared before him. After hearing something, his pupils shrank. “There’s a change!”
