Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Judging from the azure ripples in the void outside, not a single person had yet set foot on the eighth layer. Even the names of Ouyang Hao and Luo Tong had suddenly vanished.

It was simply too bizarre!

It was so bizarre that even Ouyang Badao, the City Lord who had been certain of victory, was at a complete loss. He refused to believe Ouyang Hao could be dead, and he certainly didn’t believe that an ancestor at the True Essence Ninth Layer would be unable to handle a few juniors.

Therefore, even now, he still clung to a sliver of hope!

RUMBLE!

As everyone stared at the eighth layer, the great doors of the Void Saber Tower opened once again.

"What’s going on? Hasn’t anyone gotten the City Lord Token from the eighth layer yet? Why is the competition ending? What in the world is happening?"

Everyone was stunned. The competition wasn’t over, yet the doors to the Void Saber Tower had opened. ’Could it be that the City Lord’s Order isn’t on the eighth layer, or has someone already gotten it?’

Filled with suspicion, the crowd stared intently at the doors, waiting with bated breath. They were determined to see what exactly was happening inside the Void Saber Tower.

"Run!"

"Get away!"

However, in the next instant, to everyone’s astonishment, a group of people burst out from the doors, their faces filled with terror, as if they had encountered some unimaginable horror!

"Don’t kill me!"

Many of them were scrambling and crawling, their faces pale with fright as they burst out of the doors.

More than thirty people had originally entered, but now, fewer than ten came out. They charged straight past the crowd, so terrified they couldn’t even seem to find their way back to their own family’s section.

In this bizarre atmosphere, some of the more timid people in the crowd were already scared witless just by the commotion, without even laying eyes on the unknown horror. They quickly retreated, moving far away from the main square.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

The people in the three families’ encampments shot to their feet, their expressions grim.

"You bastards, what are you running for? What happened in there?" Seeing a few of his family’s youths take to their heels and utterly disgrace the Luo Family, Luo Xun roared in fury.

But no one answered him. In the blink of an eye, they were gone!

At this, everyone’s gazes hardened. They were all on high alert, their eyes fixed on the doors of the Void Saber Tower, waiting for the unknown horror.

Of course, had anyone paid closer attention, they would have noticed the unprecedentedly solemn expressions on the faces of the three Patriarchs. They all shared the same worry: the ninth layer!

The ninth layer was far too mysterious. It was possible that some terrifying entity sealed within had been released. If that were the case, they would have to prepare to deal with it.

The crowd’s gazes remained fixed, and they stayed on high alert. Time ticked by, second by agonizing second. Everyone felt tortured by the wait. ’If there’s some unimaginable horror, just show yourself already! This oppressive atmosphere is putting everyone on edge!’

"Look, something’s appearing!"

About three or four minutes later, someone suddenly shouted. A shadow had appeared outside the great doors.

At the sight, everyone tensed, secretly readying their attacks. The moment this terrifying thing fully appeared, they would all unleash their power and obliterate it.

But...

...in the next instant, the crowd was dumbstruck, their jaws on the floor!

What emerged from the Void Saber Tower was not some terrifying creature, but a white ball!

No, not a white ball—it was a fat cat!

The crowd quickly assessed the creature. This fat cat was covered in white fur. Other than a pair of shifty eyes that could be seen darting about, the most conspicuous feature was the pair of strange long horns growing on its head.

Of course, its most defining feature was its size. It was so fat, it stretched the very definition of a cat.

"Are you kidding me? *That’s* the terrifying creature? It’s just a damn fat cat!" The whiplash between terror and reality was too much for some people’s nerves, and they immediately started cursing.

All eyes were on the Dragon Cat, and many people were gritting their teeth, looking like they wanted nothing more than to kill the creature!

However, in the eyes of some of the young women, a deep affection bloomed as they stared at the Dragon Cat. It was as if they had encountered a rare treasure, and their beautiful eyes shone with the most intense light.

"What kind of cat is that? It’s so cute! I’m taking it home, and nobody better try to stop me, or I’ll fight you to the death!" Unable to suppress their affection, those young women were about to rush forward.

However, they were stopped by the people beside them. "Are you crazy? Don’t be fooled by its appearance! Have you forgotten how those people were acting just now?"

As they spoke, they watched the Dragon Cat warily.

"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a cat this handsome before?" The Dragon Cat’s sly eyes darted about as it struck a pose that declared Lord Cat was the most handsome of all.

The corners of everyone’s mouths twitched. ’This thing is so narcissistic!’

But in the eyes of the young women, it was just adorable!

Many of the young men watched as the fat cat captured the hearts of all the young women the moment it appeared, and they seethed with wild jealousy.

One of them, a young man with an aquiline nose, was particularly jealous and said to the young women next to him, "Don’t be fooled by its appearance. For all you know, it could be a monster!"

"Monster your mom! Watch your mouth, kid. Be careful, or Lord Cat will dig up your ancestral graves." The Dragon Cat’s hearing was sharp, and it instantly caught the aquiline-nosed youth’s comment. It immediately turned its head to threaten him, looking like it was dead serious.

"Hahaha!"

Its words drew a wave of laughter. A fat cat that could dig up ancestral graves!

The crowd’s laughter made the youth’s expression turn ugly. To make matters worse, the young women next to him shot him a harsh glare, muttered, "Serves you right," and moved away from him.

The youth flew into a rage out of humiliation and directed all his anger at the Dragon Cat. He roared, "You damned monster! What do you think you are? Today, I, Han Jun, will tear off your mask!"

With that, he started to charge, gathering a terrifying attack as he prepared to kill the Dragon Cat.

However...

...before he could get close to the Dragon Cat, a figure in white had already walked out from the great doors, strolling as casually as if he were in his own courtyard.

Behind him followed a group of Ye Family members. They stared at the young man before them as if they were looking at a God of Slaughter, their expressions filled with profound fear.

It was the same look the crowd had seen in the eyes of those who had fled earlier!

Fear!

Immediately, a thought occurred to everyone: could the "unimaginable horror" be the youth in white, Ye Wushuang?

Ye Wushuang reached the Dragon Cat’s side in just a few steps. His speed was enough to make everyone’s pupils shrink.

SKRT!

Han Jun’s body came to an abrupt halt.

"Whose mask were you going to tear off?" Ye Wushuang brushed his sleeves, then sharply raised his head to stare at Han Jun. A fierce, blade-like glint shot from his eyes, piercing straight into Han Jun’s very soul! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Han Jun shuddered and stumbled back several steps, utterly terrified. He was horrified to find that he couldn’t even withstand a single glance from Ye Wushuang!

"Scram!"

Ye Wushuang coldly uttered a single word. A fierce aura, like a solid wall, slammed into Han Jun, sending him flying and crashing to the ground.

SPURT!

Han Jun spat out a mouthful of blood, scrambled up from the ground, and left with his face flushed in humiliation.

No one in the crowd felt the slightest bit of sympathy.

Han Jun was a narrow-minded man. He had picked a fight and even developed killing intent simply because the young women showed affection for the Dragon Cat. Now that he had been taught a lesson, he had no one to blame but himself!
