The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1485 - 1486: Who Outwitted Whom

Ao Canngwu could no longer wait. Over a hundred thousand years ago, he already had the ambition to unify Wraith Land. Now that he had fully recovered his strength as a True Energy Realm warrior and successfully cultivated Immortal Martial, he was determined to directly annihilate the Wraith Clan. No one could stop him; whoever refused to submit, he would kill.

That was his character—arrogant and domineering, with an ambition greater than anyone’s.

Right at this moment, two shadows flashed over, a man and a woman, half-kneeling in front of Ao Canngwu, their voices devoid of the slightest emotion.

"Soul Master, are we ready to move?"

"Yes!"

Ao Canngwu nodded and said, "Your strength is almost on par with Zhou Tianmo’s. I will take the two of you and head to the Wraith Clan together."

"Soul Master, I don’t think we even need to make a move. We’ll just watch you unleash your might and kill Wang Mo Luo."

The female Soul Envoy named Leng Shang said, "Soul Master, you have successfully cultivated Immortal Martial. This is something impossible in the entire secular world. In this secular world, there simply cannot exist anyone capable of opposing you."

This Leng Shang was Ao Canngwu’s Great Soul Envoy, and that man was called Leng Mian, the Second Soul Envoy. The two of them, like Fu Rong, were both at Divine Venerable Nine Souls and were Soul Envoys secretly nurtured by Ao Canngwu.

"Three days from now will be the day I, Ao Canngwu, unify Wraith Land. Hahahaha!"

Ao Canngwu threw his head back and laughed wildly.

At this very moment, in that independent space, Ye Mo stood straight, eyes slightly closed, his entire mind beginning to empty out. He was neither anxious nor impatient, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, a crack split open in the space, and a middle-aged man slowly stepped into it.

"Zhou Tianmo, you really came!"

Ye Mo opened his eyes. It was as if he had long since guessed that Zhou Tianmo would come here.

"I have come under the Clan Leader’s orders to interrogate you. You are Wang Qianmo’s heir, so you should have his treasures on you, right? And that beast capable of seizing bodies—hand everything over."

Zhou Tianmo said coldly.

"Hand them over? Sure. As long as you help me remove the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon, all the treasures on me can be yours, including that Ancient Yin-Yang Magnet."

Ye Mo twisted his body a bit and said with a faint smile, "What’s wrong? So this Vice Chieftain also covets the things on me that much?"

"Ye Mo, you are a traitor of my Wraith Clan. You are in no place to be this arrogant. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning. Once I remove the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon, you’ll probably release the Blood Demon Ancestor immediately, right? But let me tell you the truth: once bound by the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon, other than Wang Mo Luo, no one can解除束缚."

Zhou Tianmo said, "Of course, there is another way that can also解除束缚 for you."

"And that is death!"

When Zhou Tianmo uttered the word "death," he especially emphasized it.

"Ao Canngwu sent you to kill me, didn’t he?"

Ye Mo smiled, then changed the topic.

"What are you talking about? I don’t understand what you mean!"

Zhou Tianmo’s expression didn’t change.

"Zhou Tianmo, there’s no need for you to put on an act here. There are only the two of us in this place. You came here for no other reason than to kill me. Since that’s the case, why not just admit it outright?"

Ye Mo said calmly.

"Haha, you’re a dead man anyway. That’s right, I was indeed sent by Ao Canngwu. But don’t think Ao Canngwu can command me. He’s just a chess piece I’m using. In the end, the final victor will only be me, Zhou Tianmo."

Zhou Tianmo laughed loudly. "And you are also just one of my chess pieces. That day when we played three games of chess, you suffered a crushing defeat at my hands. I already warned you: the consequence of offending me is utter defeat."

"Zhou Tianmo, do you really think Ao Canngwu is that easy to deal with? You’re underestimating him far too much."

Ye Mo said.

"I am not underestimating him. I know better than anyone how deep his scheming runs. Once I kill you, Ao Canngwu will immediately descend upon the Wraith Clan and kill Wang Mo Luo. At that time, the two sides will definitely fight to the death. And the two great Soul Envoys at Ao Canngwu’s side are actually my people. Do you think I’ll lose this game?"

Zhou Tianmo said with a proud smile.

Ye Mo gave a cold snort. His body trembled, and the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon binding him directly peeled off and was collected into his hand. He said, "Zhou Tianmo, do you really think you’ll win this game?"

"How is this possible?"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Tianmo’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. His gaze was filled with disbelief. How could that Ye Mo possibly break free of the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon?

"Are you wondering how I managed to break free of the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon?"

Looking at Zhou Tianmo’s marvelous expression, the smile on Ye Mo’s face grew even stronger. "Because the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon never bound me at all. From the moment I entered the Wraith Clan, you had already stepped into my trap."

"Impossible!"

Zhou Tianmo’s face flushed red as he roared, "No, impossible!"

"How is it impossible? Are you puzzled as to why the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon didn’t bind me? That’s because I had already colluded with Wang Mo Luo and was putting on a show for you."

Ye Mo said.

"Wang Mo Luo and the Wraith Demon Emperor are like fire and water. How could he possibly team up with you?"

Zhou Tianmo asked in confusion.

"Under the heavens, there are no eternal enemies."

Ye Mo smiled. Back then, during the conversation between the Wraith Demon Emperor and Mengxin, Mengxin had learned that the Wraith Demon Emperor wanted to take back control of the Wraith Clan, but she stopped him. Although Mengxin had her own faction, she had never harbored thoughts of seizing power. After all, over the years, under Wang Mo Luo’s leadership, the Wraith Clan had indeed grown stronger and stronger.

And although the Wraith Demon Emperor’s Cultivation was formidable, he was not suited to be Clan Leader.

With Mengxin acting as a bridge in the middle, Wang Mo Luo was naturally willing to put on this show together with the Wraith Demon Emperor.

"Then how did you know that I was Ao Canngwu’s man?"

Zhou Tianmo continued to ask. He simply couldn’t believe that the plan he had been laying out for so long had actually been completely seen through.

"Naturally, thanks to Dantai Qingyi."

Ye Mo smiled. "Are you wondering how Dantai Qingyi never woke up? The day Dantai Qingyi woke up, he told me he had been hit by the Soul Silkworm Curse. I then had him continue to pretend to be in a coma, deceiving Dantai Zanglian. And you seemed to have used a memory-searching method on Dantai Zanglian. Not only did you fail to discover that Dantai Qingyi had awakened, you also learned about me killing the Lord of Myriad Demons."

"So I simply went along with your plan. When we exited the Holy Soul Domain, I acted out another scene with Zang Lian (Senior Sister Zang Lian), letting you know that I was the Wraith Demon Emperor’s heir."

At these words, Zhou Tianmo’s expression twisted more and more. In his eyes, blazing flames roared, his gaze flickering again and again, before finally locking dead onto Ye Mo.

"So what? Even if you know everything, what can you do?"

Zhou Tianmo sneered repeatedly. "The key to this space is in my hand. No one can get in. Today, I’ll kill you right here. Three days later, even if my plot is exposed, it’ll be too late."

Zhou Tianmo clenched his fists. Within his bones, it was as if magma was colliding. The surrounding space began to rumble and explode from the impact, tides of terrifying aura surging up one after another.

"Zhou Tianmo, you are the only disciple the Wraith Demon Emperor truly favored. He taught you everything, yet in the end you betrayed him, causing him to suffer a miserable defeat at Ao Canngwu’s hands. Today I will kill you, and consider it cleaning house on his behalf!"

Ye Mo put away the Divine Emperor Dragon Tendon, and an aura no weaker than Zhou Tianmo’s erupted from him as well. The two mighty auras clashed ceaselessly, causing the space itself to begin to shatter.
