The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 850: Chapter 851: Absolute Sword Platform

Whoosh!

As soon as Ye Mo entered the Heavenly Sword Society, he headed straight for Liu Qingtai’s estate.

However, as he passed by the plaza, a number of disciples gathered there, and on the dueling platform, two disciples were engaged in a duel.

Among them, one was none other than Jiang Yuan.

This dueling platform was called the Absolute Sword Platform, located in the center of the plaza. It was the largest platform in the Heavenly Sword Society, and any Martial Artist who stepped onto it and lost would have their Sword Qi abolished. Without a significant grudge, no one would risk stepping onto it.

The so-called Absolute Sword means bidding farewell to Sword Qi and one’s swordsmanship. Losing means having your Sword Qi abolished, and having Sword Qi cultivated over ten years being abolished is no different from having cultivation abolished.

As Jiang Yuan and the other disciple stepped onto the Absolute Sword Platform, disciples from the Tianyi Sect, be they official members, Elite Disciples, or even some Servants Disciples, put their chores aside and came to watch.

"Jiang Yuan, you actually dared to follow me onto the Absolute Sword Platform."

The young man sneered at Jiang Yuan, "Jiang Yuan, I played with your woman, so what? If you have the ability, come and waste me."

Ye Mo, who had just arrived, listened to the conversation between the two on stage and frowned, having almost figured out the cause.

"I heard Jiang Yuan was born into an ordinary family, but he’s quite formidable, having cultivated to the Heavenly Profound Complete Realm."

"Jiang Yuan relies on being ruthless; many noble disciples fear him and call him big brother, but who knew he’d offend Han Xing."

"Having your woman taken by Han Xing is unbearable for anyone. Though both are at the Great Perfection realm, Jiang Yuan’s foundation isn’t solid; he’s probably no match for Han Xing."

The crowd began discussing.

Hearing this, Ye Mo recalled meeting Jiang Yuan for the first time; Jiang Yuan was also aiming to be ruthless, making him share chores so Jiang Yuan could have more time to cultivate.

"Han Xing, what did I do to offend you? Even my woman is not spared."

At this moment, Jiang Yuan’s eyes were red, like a furious lion, completely enraged.

"Just for fun. As Martial Artists like us, are we afraid of not having women?"

Han Xing said nonchalantly.

"I’ll destroy you."

Jiang Yuan immediately grabbed an Azure Light Sword from his field; it was a heavy sword, a Low-grade Celestial Weapon.

"Want to destroy me?"

Han Xing sneered, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body, and he also held an Azure Light Sword, surrounded by flames, showing its extraordinary spirituality.

"Both are at the Heavenly Profound Complete Realm, and both wield Low-grade Celestial Weapons."

Ye Mo observed and was slightly relieved.

Although he and Jiang Yuan had conflicts before, they were now on good terms, and during his time at the Heavenly Sword Society, Jiang Yuan had been helping him manage things. He naturally wouldn’t stand by and watch Jiang Yuan lose.

"Will of the Flames!"

Han Xing shouted, a sword carrying scorching Sword Qi, like a fire dragon, attacked Jiang Yuan.

And Jiang Yuan roared in anger, gripping his sword with both hands, and fiercely slashed out.

Their swords clashed, and both retreated a few steps; neither gained an advantage.

Again, they tangled in a fierce struggle, Jiang Yuan being a power-type Martial Artist using a heavy sword, whereas Han Xing was a skilled contestant. They exchanged over a hundred moves without a decisive outcome.

Han Xing frowned, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, unexpectedly realizing Jiang Yuan’s strength. Then his gaze turned toward one side, where a blue light attacked Jiang Yuan.

"Humph!"

Ye Mo shouted, and a Demonic Dragon Phantom also shot out, colliding with that blue light.

Then, several more blue lights rained down like raindrops, aiming to envelop Jiang Yuan.

Hiding among the crowd, Ye Mo released phantoms of the Demonic Dragon, pressing forward and colliding with all those blue lights.

"Playing Heart Spirit Attack with me."

Ye Mo sneered, the Immortal-Slaying Imprint flashing repeatedly, and another Demonic Dragon Phantom shot out, abruptly attacking Han Xing’s brow.

Instantly, Han Xing, struck by this move, fell into a brief mental stupor.

"Go to hell!"

Jiang Yuan reacted swiftly, fiercely thrusting his sword, piercing Han Xing’s right shoulder, directly sending him flying.

"Ahhh!"

Han Xing immediately cried out in pain, lying on the ground, looking at the approaching longsword, and immediately said, "Brother Hsiao Hai, save me."

With those words, a figure rushed out, identified as Hsiao Hai of the Third Rotation of Qiankun. With a big hand, he grabbed the heavy sword approaching Han Xing, saying, "Since Han Xing has already lost, show some mercy and spare him."

Though Hsiao Hai said this, his gaze swept around, looking for anyone who had opposed him just now.

"Spare him? This is the Absolute Sword Platform. Unless one party has their Sword Qi abolished, it’s never-ending. Brother Hsiao Hai, I ask you to step aside."

Jiang Yuan said angrily.

"How dare you!"

Hsiao Hai immediately put on a stern face and said angrily, "What are you? A Servants Disciple dare speak to me like that?"

Although Hsiao Hai was an official member, his relationship with Liu Qingtai was great. In the Heavenly Sword Society, no one dared to offend him, and even Elite Disciples greeted him with smiles; some disciples even believed Hsiao Hai was the Young Sect Master’s man.

"It looks like Jiang Yuan is doomed."

"But having your woman violated is unbearable for anyone. If it were me, I’d also abolish Han Xing’s Sword Qi."

Glaring at Hsiao Hai, Jiang Yuan knew very well that Han Xing was Hsiao Hai’s lackey, and as a mere Servants Disciple, going against Hsiao Hai was suicidal. But thinking of his woman being defiled by Han Xing, a nameless rage surged from deep within his heart.

"What? You still won’t put down your sword? You have already reached the Great Perfection realm, and your future is bright. Don’t ruin your future. Even if I don’t stop you, the Han family won’t spare you after you abolish Han Xing’s Sword Qi. Do you understand? As a brother, it’s for your own good; there’s no need to dwell on a woman."

Hsiao Hai coldly said.

Jiang Yuan helplessly released the heavy sword, which clattered onto the platform with a crisp sound.

"Brother Jiang Yuan, pick up the heavy sword and destroy him."

Ye Mo directly leaped onto the Absolute Sword Platform, staring coldly at Hsiao Hai, "If Hsiao Hai wants to stop you, I’ll block him for you. If you can’t even protect your own woman, what kind of man are you?"

"Ye Mo? How have you returned?"

Hsiao Hai looked at Ye Mo with an incredulous expression. Ye Mo was supposed to have gone to Living Island, so why did he return immediately? Did he realize he couldn’t complete his mission and came back?

Ignoring Hsiao Hai, Ye Mo looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "Go all out and don’t have any reservations."
