High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 1294: Fierce Sun Empress! Interception

As the words fell, the entire battlefield plunged into silence.

Everyone’s gaze fell on Jiang Ye.

There was anticipation, curiosity, schadenfreude, and worry.

Jiang Ye’s expression remained calm as he gently tossed the dark golden fragment in his hand and tucked it into his arms.

“This fragment is the spoils of my battle with Mo Yuan,” he looked at You Huang and said lightly, “There’s no reason to hand it over.”

You Huang’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the Supreme Dark Authority slowly surged around him.

“Deserved?”

“Ye Jiang, if it weren’t for the three of us arriving in time, Mo Yuan and Wuyin would have long escaped.” You Huang’s voice was cold: “Do you really think you and the Blue Heaven King alone could hold back two with Star Talent?”

“Even if you hadn’t come, I could have suppressed the two of them,” Jiang Ye said calmly, with absolute confidence.

In fact, in that previous battle, he hadn’t exerted his full strength.

Even if the Profound Celestial Maiden and others hadn’t arrived, he and the Blue Heaven King might have found it difficult to kill Mo Yuan and Wuyin, but with various hidden cards, continuous suppression was not impossible.

Yet these words made You Huang laugh.

“Suppress?”

“Ye Jiang, do you believe it yourself?” You Huang sneered: “From start to finish, it was the Blue Heaven King who was exerting effort.”

“Wuyin was subdued by him, and Mo Yuan was held back by him too.”

“And what did you do? Firing from the periphery, intercepting a few palm seals?”

“I have no problem with giving the fragment of Wuyin to the Blue Heaven King,” You Huang paused, his tone becoming even colder: “But the fragment of Mo Yuan, you have no right to take.”

Jiang Ye’s expression didn’t change, he replied calmly, “Whether I have the right is not for you to decide.”

“Whoever snatched the fragment, it belongs to them.”

“You.”

A flash of anger swept through You Huang’s eyes, and the Supreme Dark Authority suddenly shook.

An invisible sense of oppression surged out like a tide, crushing towards Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye remained unmoved.

The Eternal Night Spear was held at his side, and the Four Great Laws slowly circulated within him, dissolving the entire sense of oppression.

Their gazes collided in the void, sparks flying.

“Ye Jiang, don’t be ungrateful.”

You Huang’s voice was low, carrying a hint of danger: “I, You Huang, have never failed to obtain what I asked for.”

“That was before.”

Jiang Ye responded indifferently, “Now there is.”

The two looked at each other, the air seemingly frozen.

The tension reached its peak.

Qingyao and others watched from a distance, not daring to breathe heavily.

Han Xiang frowned tightly, her palms sweaty.

Two with Star Talent confronted a newly promoted Authority Elder, any slight mishap could lead to internal strife.

“Alright, let’s not hurt the harmony.”

“You Huang, what Ye Jiang said makes sense,” Yue Wuji finally spoke: “The fragment was indeed snatched by him, you can’t forcibly take it.”

You Huang glanced at Yue Wuji, his face somewhat unsightly.

In the Caikun Civilization, strength reigned supreme.

Although he wasn’t very afraid of Yue Wuji, since the other party had spoken, there was no need to continue the dispute.

“Ye Jiang.”

“Are you sure you want to get to this point with me over a single authority fragment?” You Huang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.

As someone with Star Talent.

He had never lost face in front of a Celestial Pride Talent.

Especially in front of the Profound Celestial Maiden!

“You’re being aggressive,” Jiang Ye said indifferently, never fearing anyone.

This You Huang took the initiative to make things difficult for him, so naturally, he would not be polite.

“You!” You Huang’s eye twitched, the Supreme Dark Authority surged around him more violently.

The dark golden light cast a shadow over the surrounding tens of thousands of miles of void.

Just as he was about to make a move——

“Ten drops of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow.”

A cold voice broke the deadlock.

The Profound Celestial Maiden spoke.

She raised her eyes to look at Jiang Ye, those beautiful eyes containing countless stars without the slightest emotion, only coldness.

“For the fragment in your hand.”

The scene went silent.

Yue Wuji was stunned, You Huang frowned, even Qingyao and others watching from afar showed surprise.

Ten drops of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow?

That was a critical resource for a Peak of the Divine Body Realm to assault the Divine Sea Realm, each drop was priceless.

Ten drops, enough to forcefully create a breakthrough opportunity for a mediocre Peak of the Divine Body Realm.

Would Ye Jiang agree?

“Ten drops of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow.” Jiang Ye quickly weighed it in his heart.

The Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow, he indeed needed.

Although he already had several drops on hand, according to Bai Gui’s suggestion, he needed to accumulate enough foundation at the Peak of the Divine Body Realm to push all twelve Dao Planets to the critical point of realization.

The resources needed for that were massive.

Though the effect of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow was far below that of the Void and Reality Dao Crystal, it still had certain efficacy.

More importantly.

Before the battle with Wuyin, he had already secretly transferred the two authority fragments in his hand to his Dao Body.

Counting Wuyin’s fragment, the Blue Heaven King already held three.

In other words, even if he handed over this dark gold fragment, he still had a complete set of three pieces.

Conversely, this fragment was actually superfluous.

“Alright, deal.” Jiang Ye nodded decisively.

He took out the dark golden fragment from his arms and tossed it to the Profound Celestial Maiden.

The Profound Celestial Maiden raised her hand to catch it, placing it into her sleeve.

At the same time, she waved her other hand, and ten drops of pale golden Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow flew from her palm, landing accurately into Jiang Ye’s hand.

The droplets suspended in his palm, emanating a soul-shaking Dao origin fluctuation.

Jiang Ye put them into his storage pouch, his expression calm.

You Huang’s face was gloomy, yet he said nothing further.

Since the Profound Celestial Maiden had spoken, any further dispute would be unreasonable.

“Hmph.”

You Huang snorted coldly, turned aside, and stopped looking at Jiang Ye.

Yue Wuji sighed in relief and patted Jiang Ye on the shoulder.

“Ten drops of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow, not a loss.”
