Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

WHOOSH!

Ye Wushuang’s body flashed back, landing to one side. A smile touched his lips. He was very satisfied with the speed of Floating Light and Shadow. Without such speed, he never would have dared to take such a risk.

’What a terrifying sword!’

Sensing the lingering killing intent in the air, Xi Jie and Zuo Yi, who were watching from a distance, stood dumbstruck. It took them a long moment to robotically turn their heads and stare at Ye Wushuang in utter shock, a hint of surprised astonishment in their eyes.

Just moments ago, they had been worried that Ye Wushuang’s weakness would hold them back. They had never even considered letting him make a move.

But they never expected that at the critical moment, Ye Wushuang would save the day with a single sword strike. That strike was fast, ruthless, and precise—practically flawless. Even they couldn’t hope to match it.

’This kid is actually pretty strong!’ Xi Jie and Zuo Yi sighed to themselves at the same time. After exchanging a surprised glance, they started walking toward Ye Wushuang.

Meanwhile, Murong Ye stored the corpse of the Jade-Eyed Frenzied Lion and helped Yunn Dao walk over.

Seeing Yunn Dao’s minor injuries, Ye Wushuang asked, "Are you all right?"

Hearing this, Yunn Dao’s expression turned ugly. He shoved Murong Ye away and strode forward, his fierce eyes filled with malice. He roared, "Who told you to kill it? Are you trying to humiliate me on purpose?!"

’Humiliate you?’

The sudden outburst stunned Ye Wushuang. He didn’t understand what Yunn Dao meant. However, seeing Yunn Dao’s vile attitude, his gaze darkened, and he said coldly, "I saved your life!"

"Who the fuck asked you to save me? What gives you the right? Did I, Yunn Dao, need you to intervene?" As soon as Ye Wushuang finished speaking, Yunn Dao grew even more furious. Killing intent flooded his eyes as his tall, burly frame pressed toward Ye Wushuang.

He had already lost face in front of Ye Wushuang before. He’d been holding in his frustration, planning to vent it all on the Jade-Eyed Frenzied Lion. But instead, he’d gotten injured, and Ye Wushuang had seized the opportunity to act, making him lose face once again. In his eyes, Ye Wushuang had done it all just to embarrass him.

Ye Wushuang didn’t know what Yunn Dao was thinking, but his eyes turned icy. He was furious. ’I risked my life to save him, and in return, I get this ungrateful bastard asking "What gives you the right?" He even wants to kill me? What the hell is this?’

Rage surged within Ye Wushuang. The Spirit Sword in his hand hummed, as if thirsting for blood. He stared at Yunn Dao and said coldly, "I can save you, and I can kill you!"

"You can try it. We’ll see who kills who!" Yunn Dao’s fierce eyes turned savage, his killing intent overflowing. He was about to strike.

"That’s enough. He was only trying to save you!" Seeing the tense, sword-drawn atmosphere, Xi Jie stepped forward to placate Yunn Dao, afraid he would actually kill Ye Wushuang with a single slash.

"Was he saving me, or trying to humiliate me? We don’t know that for sure, do we?" Yunn Dao didn’t appreciate the gesture, a disdainful look on his face. With his strength at the Qi Vortex Realm, annihilating ten Ye Wushuangs would be a trivial matter.

Ye Wushuang’s gaze turned cold. He hadn’t expected Yunn Dao to be so petty, holding a grudge over such a minor embarrassment. If he had known, he never would have intervened.

"All right, it was all a misunderstanding!" Murong Ye said, trying to smooth things over.

"A misunderstanding!" Ye Wushuang laughed. He had saved Yunn Dao, and Yunn Dao wanted to kill him. How ironic that this was all just a "misunderstanding."

"Enough!" Xi Jie also shot Yunn Dao a look, signaling for him not to act now.

Hmph!

Yunn Dao then snorted coldly and shot Ye Wushuang a vicious glare.

Seeing that neither of them was speaking anymore, Murong Ye continued, "Our destination this time is the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion. There will be unpredictable dangers inside, so we must all work together."

"The Flood Dragon Cave Mansion?" The others were clearly unfamiliar with the place Murong Ye mentioned and looked at him with confusion.

"Let’s talk on the way." Murong Ye smiled and led the way, with the Hunting Team following close behind.

Ye Wushuang followed behind them, his gaze slightly dark. From their interactions, he had already sensed that these people were not as friendly as they appeared on the surface. They probably hadn’t brought him along out of the goodness of their hearts. He made a mental note to be on his guard, planning to find a chance to break away from the group and go it alone.

Along the way, Murong Ye’s explanation gave Ye Wushuang an understanding of this so-called Flood Dragon Cave Mansion. As it turned out, it was quite a coincidence; it was closely related to the Dragon Emperor Mountain Sealing Stamp he was cultivating.

A thousand years ago, this Flood Dragon Cave Mansion was home to a Demon King Level Flood Dragon Emperor, an expert comparable to a master of the Yin Yang Realm. Its methods were heaven-defying, and its strength was so tyrannical that all living creatures for tens of thousands of miles around groveled before it.

Later, for some unknown reason, this Flood Dragon Emperor offended the Dragon Slaying Elder of the Ancient Spirit Sect. The Dragon Slaying Elder, wielding the Spirit Communication Treasure, the Dragon Slaying Saber, killed it after a great battle that lasted for several days.

After killing the Flood Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Slaying Elder only obtained its ultimate technique, which he modified into the Dragon Emperor Mountain Sealing Stamp. As for the treasures within the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion, he was hastily recalled by the Sect before he had a chance to retrieve them.

However, he recorded the location of this cave mansion, drew a map, and left it for future disciples to use for their training.

And Murong Ye just so happened to have obtained it.

After explaining the origin of the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion, Murong Ye added, "I’ve heard there’s also Flood Dragon Treasure Blood inside. If we can get our hands on it, our strength will increase dramatically."

"Flood Dragon Treasure Blood!"

Hearing Murong Ye’s words, the others’ eyes burned with fanaticism. That was a treasure from a Demon King comparable to a Yin Yang Realm master.

Ye Wushuang’s eyes also lit up. The Flood Dragon Treasure Blood would be of immense benefit to his Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique. If he could devour the Flood Dragon Treasure Blood, he would definitely have a chance to break through to the Qi Vortex Realm in one fell swoop. At that time, he would have more power to deal with Yuan Chong and the others.

’Looks like I’ll have to stick with them for a while longer!’ Ye Wushuang dismissed the idea of leaving and decided to bide his time. He then quickened his pace, following the group over several mountain ridges. Before long, they arrived in a valley overflowing with Spiritual Qi.

The valley was lush and green, filled with exotic flowers, strange plants, and overgrown shrubs. In its center lay a Cold Pool, four or five hundred meters across. A thin mist swirled around it as water vapor rose, giving it an exceptionally tranquil appearance.

On the opposite side of the Cold Pool was a cliff face, hanging vertically like a mirror. On it was a cave entrance, a dozen or so meters above the water, looking deep and mysterious.

Murong Ye pointed to the deep cave and smiled at the others. "We’ve arrived at the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion!"

"So this is the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion!" The others stared at it, their gazes intensely fervent. However, none of them rushed forward impulsively. After all, whether or not there were dangers inside was still unknown.

Xi Jie retracted his gaze, his expression grave. "This is the Flood Dragon Emperor’s cave mansion. Even though it was killed, what dangers lie inside are still unknown."

Hearing this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Murong Ye’s face. He coaxed, "If someone goes to scout it out, then we’ll know, won’t we?"

"Someone go?" Xi Jie, Zuo Yi, and Yunn Dao froze for a moment. Their gazes subconsciously turned toward Ye Wushuang. Instantly, knowing smiles appeared on their faces in unison.

Ye Wushuang’s heart skipped a beat. ’Just as I thought!’

Without even a second thought, they had set their sights on him. Their objective was obvious.

"You want me to go?" Ye Wushuang sneered. Having already anticipated this, he rapidly distanced himself from the others. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"The whole point of bringing you here was to be our vanguard. Otherwise, do you think I would’ve let you live this long?" Yunn Dao’s sneer was thick with malice. The instant Ye Wushuang moved, he, along with Xi Jie and Zuo Yi, blocked off his escape routes. No matter how fast Floating Light and Shadow was, he couldn’t evade their pincer attack.
