Chapter 39

## Chapter 39: bl**d-Colored Weird Eye, Ye Xi’s Plot!

The An Family has been defeated!

In stark contrast to the roaring cheers echoing around, a thick haze seemed to cast itself over the bodies of the An Family members.

“We’ve lost!”

An Yujun mumbled, solemnly adding, “The An Family accepts the wager and will shortly lift the restrictions on Cangwu Mountain!”

Everyone looked excited.

Ye Xi descended gracefully, dispersing his powers and releasing An Yudu.

An Yudu’s face darkened as he glared fiercely at Ye Xi, saying, “Who on earth are you? Did you lure me into using the alien, just to wipe out the An Family completely?”

Ye Xi chuckled, shaking his head calmly.

His true purpose lay elsewhere.

“Hmph!”

An Yudu ground his teeth and turned to his brother An Yujun, whispering, “Brother, once Cangwu Mountain opens, we’re finished. Let’s fight with everything we’ve got, wipe them out completely, and perhaps we’ll still have a chance…”

“Shut up!”

An Yujun’s expression turned serious as he rebuked with shame, “The An Family has already harmed this world enough; it’s time to pay it back!”

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the crowd, landing on Ye Xi.

“I have one final request—spare the lives of children younger than twelve from the An Family!”

Ye Xi pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.

An Yujun seemed relieved, saying in a deep voice, “Everyone, follow me to Cangwu Mountain!”

Excitement sparked in everyone’s eyes.

The secrets of Cangwu Mountain were about to be unveiled!

Suddenly, an eerie sound echoed through the sky, a voice that was impossible to discern as male or female.

The sky quickly dimmed, turning a deep scarlet.

“Worthless!”

“Wasted my millennia of effort, but I guess I can still absorb some decent nutrients today.”

Everyone was stunned, gazing upwards in horror.

An Yujun and the others looked even more dismayed, a profound terror welling up in their eyes.

A bl**d-red line appeared in the sky.

It sliced through the blue expanse, then suddenly opened wide to reveal a gigantic eyeball, its pupil a bl**d-colored vortex.

Evil!

Terrifying!

A shiver-inducing sensation enveloped everyone.

“What is that?”

People stared in shock, utterly astounded.

Only Ye Xi appeared calm, as if he weren’t even the slightest bit surprised.

From within the bl**d-colored vortex emerged a tall figure, clad in bizarre and ancient attire.

Wearing a mask, he coldly eyed everyone.

Moments later, the masked figure glanced at the three elders of the An Family: “If refining the alien is still a failure, then let it serve as fertilizer!”

“Please, no!”

An Yudu cried out in panic.

Right then, to everyone’s astonished gaze, the three elders of the An Family suddenly floated up into the air.

Like fish on a hook.

No matter how they struggled, they were slowly dragged towards the bl**d-colored vortex of the eyeball.

Once swallowed up, all their power, skills, and laws vanished into nothing.

This scene made everyone’s scalp tingle in horror.

These were three Emperors!

The masked figure turned to face everyone, saying, “Those of you who try to pry into heavenly secrets deserve to d*e!”

“Let them all serve as fertilizer!”

As he finished speaking, the vortex in the giant pupil began to spin, unleashing a terrifying force that began to pull every cultivator present uncontrollably upwards.

Within them, their powers and skills were suppressed!

However, unlike the An Family’s three elders, who had no strength to resist, even the weaker cultivators only had a temporary delay in their struggle.

The lower-ranked cultivators floated up at a slower pace.

“What’s happening?”

“What on earth is that thing?”

Thousands of cultivators floated helplessly towards the bl**d-colored vortex.

At that moment, Ye Xi broke into a smile, pulling out a dark orb and tossing it casually into the air.

Boom!

The dark orb exploded into light, engulfing the area and blocking the scarlet flood.

All the floating cultivators felt a wave of relief.

The odd, devouring force vanished, and they tumbled down to the ground.

Everyone scrambled to their feet, gazing at Ye Xi in shock again.

The masked figure’s eyes flashed with astonishment as he screamed, “Who are you, and how do you possess the suppression stone?!”

The suppression stone could ward off the invasion of the alien, which was why it helped everyone escape the devouring fate.

Ye Xi’s atmosphere shifted; a terrifying aura erupted from him, intertwining with his voice as it resonated throughout the land:

“You may not know my name!”

“But my master, the Eternal Emperor, you can call me Nicholas Great Emperor!”

This declaration left everyone stunned, their faces awash with shock.

They all suspected Ye Xi’s background was extraordinary!

But no one dared to think he was actually the disciple of the Eternal Emperor!

Even the masked figure standing before the giant eye was speechless, shock dominating his thoughts!

In the next moment.

Ye Xi soared into the air, his domain erupting!

A celestial mountain appeared beneath his feet.

Alongside it, there were layers of celestial palaces, heavenly rivers cascading, and streaks of radiant light dancing, the sounds of celestial music echoing.

This was his true power—his domain was like the celestial realm, and he was its sovereign!

“Attack!”

Ye Xi conjured a spear and hurled it towards the giant eye, releasing seismic power.

Then, in the distance, a black fog surged, boundless and oppressive, swiftly covering the sky.

Purple Paulownia Great Emperor had arrived!

Seeing this, Ye Qingge and Yuan Ruoyu also soared into action simultaneously, ready to unleash their assault.

Boom!

Bang bang bang!

In an instant, everyone felt as if the heavens and earth were flipping upside down.

Space shattered like cracked glass, revealing numerous hollows.

The ground shook violently.

Mountains exploded, creating abysses hundreds of yards deep.

Suddenly, with a burst of power, it quickly receded into calmness.

The sky gradually returned to its brightness.

“Is it raining?”

Everyone opened their eyes, feeling droplets cascading down.

But upon looking up, they realized it was a bl**d-red downpour, the stench overwhelming.

Not rain, but bl**d, showering down.

In the sky, the massive eyeball was slowly closing, the masked figure retreating into it, a spear still stuck in the eyeball.

bl**d flowed continuously like rainfall, staining the land scarlet.

The masked figure’s voice roared with fury, “Nicholas Great Emperor, very good! You’ve thoroughly enraged me!”

“Even the Eternal Emperor in his prime has never left me this wounded!”

Ye Xi, his white robe splattered with bl**d, declared proudly, “That’s because we chose different paths.”

“He walks the path of survival!”

“I, on the other hand, walk the path of dominance, a road to invincibility!”

In that moment, Ye Xi radiated unyielding power; his calm yet forceful voice echoed like thunder across the universe.

“I will not let you escape!”

As the masked figure’s voice faded, the giant eye fully closed, vanishing from the sky.

Ye Xi’s killing intent surged: “I will definitely root out your kind and eliminate every last one of you!”

Looking at that grand silhouette.

Everyone understood, a new Emperor had arisen in this world.

Nicholas Great Emperor!

Though the name sounded peculiar, he was undeniably a titan of unparalleled strength.

At this moment, Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge approached.

Ye Qingge shot him a cold glance, saying, “Stop pretending, or I might just have to take measures!”

Ye Xi’s expression instantly soured!

He feared no one, but disrespecting the Master’s Wife was out of the question.

A flicker of doubt crossed Ye Qingge’s eyes, then she said, “This was all your scheme, wasn’t it?”

“Ever since the appearance of the Purple Paulownia Great Emperor!”

“The three elders of the An Family wouldn’t have needed to refine that alien if a Great Emperor hadn’t shown up.”

Ye Qingge continued, “If they hadn’t attempted to refine that alien, that monstrous eye would never have bitten the bait!”

At this point, Yuan Ruoyu had also turned her attention towards him.

Ye Xi felt pressure building and began to explain, “I didn’t mean to keep this from you…”

He thought to himself, none of these Masters’ Wives are a walk in the park.

Ye Qingge smiled enigmatically, her icy tone adding, “If you don’t clarify things, don’t blame me for not giving face to your Master!”
