The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 783: Chapter 784: Gu Xingyue Captured

"Bi Hongfei, tie her up for me."

Yuwen Ke said indifferently.

"As you command!"

With a twist of her slender waist, Bi Hongfei walked over and directly tied up Gu Xingyue, "Nice figure, what a pity. Offending Lord Yuwen means a dead end. Quickly hand over the Demon Crystal and half of the Ancient Flame Demon Seed."

"The Demon Crystal and the Ancient Flame Demon Seed are inside my field. Now that my Dantian is sealed, how can I take out the Demon Crystal?"

Gu Xingyue smiled lightly.

Hearing this, Yuwen Ke’s face turned livid with anger. He had completely forgotten about this, only remembering to seal Gu Xingyue’s Dantian. Now, wanting to lift the seal was impossible unless a seventh-tier Seal Artist intervened.

"Lord Yuwen, why not just kill her? If she’s not eliminated, she’ll be the first in the competition."

Bi Hongfei immediately suggested.

"You really want her dead, don’t you?"

Yuwen Ke said coldly, "This Gu Xingyue cannot be killed yet. She has a decent connection with Ye Mo. Spread the word that we’ve captured Gu Xingyue and sealed her Dantian. Anyone who wants this beauty should cough up fifty thousand Demon Crystals to ransom her."

"Fifty thousand Demon Crystals?"

Some City Lords couldn’t help but swallow hard. They really had to push themselves to kill more beasts and rob a few more people; otherwise, even collecting this much wouldn’t be easy.

Fifty thousand Demon Crystals to ransom this ice beauty, who now has no cultivation; such a temptation was something no man could resist. They often fantasized about Gu Xingyue struggling beneath them.

However, now they obviously didn’t have that kind of power, and could only swallow their pride silently. They knew Yuwen Ke was doing this to lure Ye Mo out and eliminate him in one swoop, completely securing the Thousand City Battle’s outcome.

The news quickly spread, and almost all the participating City Lords knew about it, and Ye Mo naturally heard it as well.

"How can this be? Gu Xingyue was actually captured by Yuwen Ke and even had her Dantian sealed?"

Ye Mo was taken aback. Even if Gu Xingyue were overpowered, it made no sense for her to be captured by Yuwen Ke, who was only Half-Step Universe, not true Chaos City.

"Maybe Yuwen Ke still has some card up his sleeve."

The little girl guessed.

"A card? Could it be he has ascended to Chaos City?"

Ye Mo’s heart stirred.

"Impossible, ascending to Chaos City causes such a massive commotion that there’s no way we wouldn’t notice."

The little girl said.

"The worst possibility is that the half of the Ancient Flame Demon Seed in Gu Xingyue’s hands was taken by Yuwen Ke, but with her intelligence, she should have already consumed it."

Hong Ling added.

"Yuwen Ke releasing this news is probably to lure you to your death. If you go, you’ll truly be marching to your doom."

The little girl spoke bluntly as always.

Ye Mo rolled his eyes, "While Gu Xingyue and I don’t have a deep connection, we do have some ties. With my Five Elements Immortal Futu Palm, in a critical moment, even if I can’t kill him with one strike, it would be as good as."

The power of the Five Elements Immortal Futu Palm gave him great confidence.

The little girl’s guess proved accurate, indicating this battle was inevitable.

"Yuwen Ke, you’d better save your breath. I have no significant ties with Ye Mo; do you really think he has no brains? Doesn’t he see that you’re deliberately luring him? Do you think he’d risk everything for me?"

Tied to a giant pillar, Gu Xingyue looked at Yuwen Ke, who was drinking beside her, while Bi Hongfei massaged his shoulders, deeply enjoying himself.

"How about a wager? If that kid comes within three days, you serve me for a night voluntarily. If he doesn’t, I’ll release you immediately. How about that?"

Yuwen Ke smiled faintly, seemingly assured of victory.

Gu Xingyue, hearing this, kept silent, this being the first time her conviction about men not being good wavered.

Seeing Gu Xingyue silent, Yuwen Ke stood up, slowly walking to her side.

Suddenly!

His pupils contracted sharply, his sharp gaze piercing the sky, looking into the distance as if sensing something, and immediately, a smirk formed on his lips.

"Gu Xingyue, you really are smart. If you had accepted the wager earlier, you would have surely lost. That guy, he’s really recklessly coming over here."

In the canyon, noticing Yuwen Ke’s actions, all the City Lords shuddered slightly, immediately understanding, and turned their gaze towards the distance.

Indeed!

Whoosh!

A sound swiftly brushed across, directly hovering in the air.

"That’s Ye Mo, let’s take him down together!"

Seeing Ye Mo, Bi Hongfei’s hatred surged up again. With Yuwen Ke backing her, she arrogantly shouted, and all the nearby City Lords surged forward.

There were over twenty City Lords, with an equal split between Six Star Castellans and Five-star City Lords.

Whoosh!

A black figure stared at the surging crowd of City Lords, and he immediately spread the Red Dragon Wings, with a flap crashing two fierce gales into the City Lord group.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Ye Mo didn’t even lift a hand, yet blood mist exploded everywhere, the bodies of all the City Lords bursting, and some weaker ones were even split in two.

Ye Mo’s aura, his body a blade of death, made the remaining City Lords tremble with dread, their scalps tingling.

"Run quickly, without the strength of a Seven Star City Lord, going forward is suicide."

Some City Lords began to retreat, not daring to confront Ye Mo head-on.

"Yuwen Ke, release Gu Xingyue now."

Ye Mo shouted loudly.

"Haha, Ye Mo, as expected of a young hero. Your performance is indeed dazzling. From anonymity, you’ve grown to such a terrifying degree. Your achievements will be noted by the Chaos Palace, and regardless of your final ranking, you’ll be taken by the Chaos Palace, your future boundless."

Yuwen Ke, with hands behind his back, eyed Ye Mo contemptuously, his calm voice spreading.

"Enough nonsense. The fifty thousand Demon Crystals are here, release Gu Xingyue immediately."

Ye Mo wielded a Sumeru Pouch containing exactly fifty thousand Demon Crystals.

"Heh, how can fifty thousand Demon Crystals ransom such an ice beauty? She is now powerless and cannot resist any City Lord. I want all your Demon Crystals."

Yuwen Ke’s icy voice echoed.

All the Demon Crystals, totaling three hundred thousand, Yuwen Ke would not only secure first place, but also assist his subordinates to secure a top ten ranking.

"All my Demon Crystals? Are you robbing me?"

Ye Mo couldn’t help but laugh coldly.

"Haha, robbing? I am indeed robbing you. Now that you dare come alone, I’ll ensure you never leave."

Yuwen Ke clapped his hands, and a cyan longsword shot out, a power slashing through the void towards Ye Mo directly.
