The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1257: Chapter 1258: Second Prince Hun Wuji

"Damn it, what on earth is happening?"

Ao Zi stared hard at the scene, unable to believe it, and shouted loudly, "Lord Soul Rider, what’s wrong with you?"

Without Ao Zi’s control, Ye Mo effortlessly broke free from the bindings of the Sky-Shrouding Net, leaping and landing on the head of the Soul Rider Sky Master, saying, "What Lord Soul Rider? The Soul Riding Heavenly Lion is nothing special, wasn’t it just taken over by Little Jing."

"What? Possession?"

Startled, Ao Zi recalled the previous scene, where a huge shadow had pounced directly into the body of the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion, which then turned to attack him.

Could it be that the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion was really possessed? Unexpectedly, Ao Zi’s body felt a bit cold; after all, it was a beast formed by condensing the Wraith Energy of Heaven and Earth, which even the Soul Master would treat with respect, yet it was devoured.

What kind of Demon Beast is this Little Jing?

"Little Jing, quickly go help Sister Xiao Yue and kill that leader."

Now transformed into the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion, Ye Mo didn’t bother to make a move, letting Little Jing exhibit its power. Its wings suddenly shook, appearing instantly before Zhang He.

Zhang He was shocked, swinging his longsword repeatedly, striking Little Jing’s body. The clashing of metal echoed, unable to cause any harm to the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion.

Little Jing flashed again, and a terrifying storm swept out, instantly tearing Zhang He, who had opened the Fourth Space-Time Gate, to pieces.

"Haha, well done!"

Ye Mo patted Little Jing’s head, moved his body, and appeared before Ao Zi, saying, "You must be the Soul Master’s son; otherwise, he wouldn’t have entrusted the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion to you."

"And what if I am?"

Ao Zi said calmly.

"That’s even better; killing you will bring some satisfaction."

Ye Mo recalled the scene at the Rune Convention, the oppression from the Soul Master almost killing him, and the deaths of Elder Fu Chen and the little girl, all related to the Soul Master. Moreover, once the Power of Laws of the Vanquishing Martial Realm disappeared, Soul Master Ao Cangwu would lead the army to attack Lingwu Continent.

Killing his son would indeed bring some satisfaction.

"What? Dare to kill me? Do you think you can kill me?"

Ao Zi sneered, "I am the Soul Master’s son; dare you kill me? Killing me, no matter who you are, will leave you in a fate a hundred times worse."

"I don’t fear your father; do you think I would fear you?"

Ye Mo roared angrily, stepping forward, each step shattering the void, thrusting a spear directly at Ao Zi.

This spear contained countless grievances of Ye Mo, even the will of the spear sensed Ye Mo’s resentment, making the Azure Light sword even sharper.

Whizz!

Suddenly, a golden sword light passed through the endless night, instantly blocking Ao Zi’s front, expanding constantly, halting Ye Mo’s spear thrust.

"Who? Sneaky."

With the activation of the Eye of the Divine Beast, Ye Mo immediately detected a subtle fluctuation in the air, expending the last drop of his spirit essences to cast the Immortal Cycle of Life and Death towards that fluctuation.

Instantly, another sword light bizarrely appeared, seeming to freeze space and time, crashing onto the Immortal Cycle of Life and Death, which hummed as it collided with the sword light, twirling like a millstone.

Boom!

Crack!

The Immortal Cycle of Life and Death and the Azure Light sword cracked simultaneously, their collision cleanly obliterating the surrounding area.

The massive impact nearly pushed Ye Mo and Xiao Yue back repeatedly, the space behind them shattering like a glass wall.

"Haha, the Second Prince is here; your death is inevitable."

Having somewhat recovered from his injuries, Ao Zi burst out of the space and sped into the distance.

Another sword light flickered, but this time the sword light instantly condensed into a human figure floating in the void, each step transcending seasons, countless years passing around him.

This was definitely a master who had mastered the Power of Time to its peak.

"This person is very strong, even stronger than a typical Demi-Honored Fighter; even Li Murong might not be his match."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said.

Demi-Honored means having summoned and condensed the Soul origin into a Soul Body, and while not yet capable of performing spiritual attacks, possesses incredibly strong regenerative capabilities.

Ye Mo gazed at the golden figure, his physique was quite slender, not much different from the people of Lingwu Continent, and his appearance was handsome.

Especially his head of golden hair, moving without the wind, a golden light sword in hand.

This person looked young but had already reached the level of a Demi-Honored, undoubtedly the Second Prince Ao Zi spoke of, his strength second only to the First Prince.

"You must be the Second Prince; your sudden appearance seems to break the rules, doesn’t it?"

However, Ye Mo showed no fear. Since their Second Prince showed up, Li Murong would likely appear as well.

Moreover, when a general calls for a fight, others aren’t supposed to intervene.

Now this Second Prince’s sudden action was breaking the rules.

"Ao Zi is the Soul Master’s son; your so-called rules mean nothing compared to his life."

The Second Prince said flatly, "Actually, I just saved you; if you truly killed Ao Zi, the First Prince would never let you go. Heaven and Earth could not save you, and your end would be unspeakably miserable; my methods are not even a fraction of his."

From the Second Prince’s tone, the First Prince must be a brutal character, possibly a strong Divine Venerate Realm fighter.

"Your methods are nothing special; even if his methods are ten thousand times yours, what then?"

Ye Mo said coldly, "Now that the mount of your Soul Master is with me, do you think I would fear you?"

"I may not know what method you used, but the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion is a holy artifact of the Wraith Land, and the Soul Master will eventually reclaim it. Even though under your control, its strength is only at the level of the Fourth Space-Time Gate."

The meaning of the Second Prince was clear, indicating that although the Soul Riding Heavenly Lion was powerful, he did not consider it a threat, easily capable of killing Ye Mo.

"Hun Wuji!"

Suddenly, a stream of light swept past, and Li Murong arrived with many leaders in tow, all staring seriously at the Second Prince.

"Hun Wuji, what are you doing? Don’t you know the rules of the Blood Prison Battlefield?"

Seeing Hun Wuji, Li Murong angrily spoke, though his anger was not overly loud, clearly somewhat apprehensive towards Hun Wuji.

"Rules? If Ye Mo killed a common leader, I wouldn’t have appeared, but Ao Zi is the Soul Master’s son; his death would bring considerable responsibility on me."

Hun Wuji smiled slightly, but his domineering tone changed the expressions of Li Murong and others.

This Ao Zi was the Dominator of Wraith Land, the son of Soul Master Ao Cangwu; naturally, the other side would not adhere to rules and watch Ao Zi be killed by Ye Mo.

This rule was established since the start of the Blood Prison Battlefield.

Otherwise, if one side could not win, countless masters would keep appearing for support, causing never-ending battles.
