Chapter 646: Huanying Country

THUD! THUD! THUD!

While he was still stunned, Ye Wushuang had already suppressed all nine Divine Silence Level experts with his bare fists. Tu Qianqian was simply dumbfounded!

He recalled how he had once vied with Ye Wushuang, but now, the difference between them was as vast as heaven and earth!

Their bodies were battered and broken, and they coughed up blood ceaselessly. The nine of them floated wretchedly in the void, propped up by an unseen force that prevented them from crashing to the ground.

Ye Wushuang quickly branded all nine of them with the Soul Slave Seal, sparing their lives only after they were bound to him.

Ye Wushuang then walked over to Tu Qianqian. "I’ve taken care of them for you," he said. "From now on, you are the Sect Master of the Corpse Sect. Go back and get ready. Await my command."

Sect Master of the Corpse Sect!

Hearing this, Tu Qianqian froze. He never imagined that Ye Wushuang would hand over the position of Sect Master so easily.

Before this, he was merely the strongest disciple. Aside from his talent, he had never even dreamed he would have a chance to become the Sect Master!

And now, Ye Wushuang was making him Sect Master outright. For him, this was an unbelievable stroke of luck.

Since the nine Divine Silence Level experts had all submitted to Ye Wushuang, they would surely support him. He wouldn’t have to worry about his standing in the Corpse Sect in the slightest.

With this, he could openly use the Sect’s resources to cultivate and improve himself!

At this thought, Tu Qianqian was overjoyed. But he was also keenly aware that Ye Wushuang had given him all of this. Snapping back to his senses, he thanked him profusely. "Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

Of course, Ye Wushuang knew what was on Tu Qianqian’s mind, but he paid it no heed. His gaze shifted to the two people locked in battle nearby.

When Zong Shuai saw Ye Wushuang dispatch the Corpse Sect experts in just a few moves, his heart trembled. A new layer of fear mixed with his disbelief.

Seizing the opportunity while Zong Shuai was distracted, Mengg Yiren’s peculiar lotuses detonated all around him. Terrible shockwaves of energy relentlessly pounded his Holy Light Guardian!

Even with its formidable defense, the Holy Light Body Protection could not withstand such a relentless bombardment!

Layer by layer, the Holy Light Body Protection shattered. By the time Zong Shuai snapped out of his daze, the Colorful Lotus had already breached his defenses!

"Die!"

As if venting all her fury on Zong Shuai, Mengg Yiren brought her hands together. The Colorful Lotus coalesced into a sword and pierced through Zong Shuai’s body.

"Ye Wushuang! Even if I die, you won’t live much longer! Dii Qingxue has already been severely injured by the Emperor’s Domineering Blood! He’ll come for you soon! You’re a dead man! HAHAHA, I’ll be waiting for you down below!"

On the brink of death, Zong Shuai roared with a savage laugh!

BOOM!

Mengg Yiren made the Colorful Lotus explode, instantly tearing Zong Shuai’s body to shreds!

Ye Wushuang’s brow furrowed deeply. Zong Shuai’s dying words had revealed a critical piece of information: Tian Chang, wielder of the Emperor’s Domineering Blood, had attacked Dii Qingxue.

This was something he had not expected.

’Tian Chang has already started going after the people around me. This time, it was Dii Qingxue. Who will it be next time?’

"Kid, Dii Qingxue isn’t that simple. She’ll be fine," the Dragon Cat said.

"I hope she’s alright. Otherwise, I’ll drain every last drop of Tian Chang’s Emperor’s Domineering Blood!"

Ye Wushuang’s eyes turned incredibly cold, blazing with unprecedented fury. Tian Chang had touched his Reverse Scale. If he didn’t kill Tian Chang, this unresolved matter would forever block his path forward!

’The Emperor’s Domineering Blood is a constant menace. It must be eradicated! Keeping a person like that alive poses the greatest danger to everyone around me. Once I return from the Three Thousand Seas, I will kill him without fail!’

"Let’s go."

Ye Wushuang called out to a reluctant Mengg Yiren, and they continued on their way.

"Kid, Divine Power is a heaven-defying treasure," the Dragon Cat piped up, its thoughts turning back to the Divine Power. "You have to get your hands on it. Even a single trace would be enough to upgrade your Dragon Blood Saint Body. Once you reach the Sixth Transformation Dragon Blood Sacred Body, you’ll be able to suppress a Pseudo-Saint with your physical body alone. You won’t have to fear some guy with the Emperor’s Domineering Blood in the slightest."

A heaven-defying treasure!

’For even the Dragon Cat to call it heaven-defying, this Divine Power must be no simple thing.’

"Is Divine Power a type of power?"

Ye Wushuang asked, puzzled. He knew that the very word "God" was a great taboo—shrouded in mystery.

"You’ll understand what that thing is later. It’s something that even Saints covet. If you obtain it, it will be more than enough to help you forge your Saint Body."

The Dragon Cat didn’t elaborate.

’The Sixth Transformation Saint Body... It seems I absolutely must get the Heart of the Sea God. That, plus the Heaven and Earth Essence, will increase my strength significantly and give me a much better chance of winning.’

Ye Wushuang thought to himself and continued on his journey.

To reach the Three Thousand Seas, they had to pass through Huanying Country. This was the perfect opportunity to settle the matter of the alliance.

「A few more days passed.」

Ye Wushuang finally arrived in Huanying Country.

Over the past few days, with the help of some insights from Lady Xiangg, he had developed a preliminary understanding of the Array Dao. To his surprise, however, the Array Dao proved to be far more difficult than either Artifact Refining or Alchemy.

Upon arriving in Huanying Country, he put it aside for the time being and headed directly for Huanying City.

This city had a feature that surprised even Ye Wushuang!

He wasn’t sure if it was because of the Huanying Empress, but this city—and in fact the entire Holy Country—was a matriarchy.

This situation became apparent the moment Ye Wushuang entered Huanying City.

For instance, to enter the city, Ye Wushuang was required to pay a fee of one thousand Spirit Stones, while Mengg Yiren was exempt. In fact, she was even treated with polite deference.

Furthermore, along the streets, Ye Wushuang noticed that every woman who looked at a man did so with a distinct expression of contempt and superiority.

Stepping into Huanying City, the handsome Ye Wushuang and the beautiful Mengg Yiren were a striking pair, inevitably attracting countless stares.

Ye Wushuang could feel that many of the gazes were on Mengg Yiren, but these gazes also held a trace of fear!

It wasn’t just Ye Wushuang; Mengg Yiren noticed it too.

A mischievous thought occurred to her, and she suddenly looped her arm through Ye Wushuang’s.

Ye Wushuang paused, startled, and glanced at Mengg Yiren. Though she had initiated the contact, her expression was far from friendly; he could see a triumphant, vengeful glint in her eyes.

At the same time, the gazes of countless men on the street, filled with killing intent and jealousy, turned towards them!

Ye Wushuang became the center of attention!

’He knew she was trying to stir up trouble for him, setting a trap.’

Mengg Yiren smirked and quickly released his arm. She felt a deep sense of satisfaction from having played even this small prank on Ye Wushuang.

However, the instant she let go, Ye Wushuang seized the opportunity, his arm snaking around her slender waist and pulling her forcefully into his embrace!

"You..."

Mengg Yiren froze for a second, then began to struggle, her face flushing with a mixture of shame and anger.

"If you like it this much, why struggle... Darling."

The corner of Ye Wushuang’s mouth lifted into a smirk. He held Mengg Yiren even more possessively, and ignoring her stunned expression, he began to walk openly with her in his arms. The scene couldn’t have been more intimate.

The word "Darling" reached Mengg Yiren’s ears, making her even more furious!

Jealousy!

The eyes of some men were filled with intense jealousy!

"Insolence!"

Suddenly, a sharp rebuke rang out.

A young man standing behind a beautiful, green-robed woman shouted and strode forward, heading straight for Ye Wushuang.

"Get your filthy hands off her!"

The youth’s loud shout attracted a crowd of all the nearby men, their expressions menacing!

In front of these men, however, stood several young women. And strangely enough, their gazes were just as hostile!
