Soul Emperor Martial God

Xiao Yi transformed into Purple Flame Fire Wings.

In just over an hour, he arrived at Northern Mountain City.

However, from afar, he saw a scene that he could hardly believe.

The Sub Hall Master was bound by a blood red chain.

Unable to move, his expression one of agony.

It seemed there was some power on the chain.

Forcefully drawing his blood, and then forcefully infusing it through the chain.

This kind of torture was comparable to flaying the skin and deboning.

Yet, the victim would not die.

He just endlessly endured this torture.

At the other end of the chain was a young man.

The youth had an expressionless face, but his eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty gaze.

On the other side, the Northern Mountain County King, although not being tortured,

was controlled by two strangers, unable to move an inch.

He could only watch the Sub Hall Master being tortured helplessly.

And listen to the inhuman screams of the Sub Hall Master.

Watching a longtime friend be tortured while he was powerless to stop it.

This feeling of helpless onlooking.

For someone with as hearty a temperament as the Northern Mountain County King, it was undoubtedly even more unbearable.

"Xue Wushang, if you have the guts, torture me too,"

the Northern Mountain County King roared angrily.

Young Master Xue, apart from the bloodthirst in his eyes, remained expressionless.

"Northern Mountain County King, you are the ruler of a commandery, I have no right to harm you."

"But capturing you, nobody dares to criticize me."

"As for you," Young Master Xue tugged at the blood red chain, looking at the Sub Hall Master.

"A mere Demon Hunting Hall Sub Hall Master, dares to impede the business of Blood Mist Valley?"

What Young Master Xue referred to, of course, was the day the Sub Hall Master and the Northern Mountain County King had teamed up to trap Xue Tu,

making it impossible for Xue Tu to kill Northern Mountain Sword Master Xiao Yi.

In fact, Xue Tu, being merely at Earth Element First Layer.

Even if the Northern Mountain County King and the Sub Hall Master hadn't intervened,

had Xiao Yi been pushed too far, Xue Tu would eventually have met his demise.

Of course, Xue Wushang didn't know this.

Nor did anyone think this way.

A kid at Mystic Breakthrough Realm capable of killing someone in Earth Origin Realm?

That was simply laughable.

Back to the matter at hand.

The Sub Hall Master screamed in agony a few more times.

"If you've got the nerve, kill me," the Sub Hall Master gritted his teeth.

He was already covered in wounds.

"Kill you? I'd rather not," Xue Wushang spoke coldly.

"I'd prefer to see how long you can last under my Blood Soul Chain."

Xue Wushang's voice was just like that of a cruel demon.

He would not kill the Sub Hall Master.

After all, the Sub Hall Master was a serving officer of the Demon Hunting Hall, commanding the Demon Hunters in the county.

If he killed him, the Main Hall would trouble him.

But if it's just torture.

The Main Hall wouldn't bother him, the Young Valley Master of Blood Mist Valley, over that.

The Main Hall would most likely take it as a personal vendetta, not interfering.

There was a big difference there.

After all, Xue Wushang had not disrupted Northern Mountain County or caused turmoil.

Nor had he committed extensive killings.

By focusing only on the Sub Hall Master, it had become a personal vendetta.

Of course, for the Sub Hall Master.

The torture now was worse than being killed.

At that moment, a figure swiftly approached from the distance.

With a terrifying force, a fist smashed firmly.

With a loud boom.

Just one punch shattered the bloody chains into powder.

"Hmm?" Xue Wushang, looking at the suddenly appearing figure, frowned.

"Who are you?"

"Hmph," the figure snorted coldly.

He grabbed the Sub Hall Master and quickly retreated.

Creating a distance between him and Xue Wushang.

The figure, of course, was Xiao Yi.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice.

"Cough cough," the Sub Hall Master spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.

"Purple Flame, how did you get here?"

The Sub Hall Master looked at the familiar mask on Xiao Yi's face, initially stunned, then his expression turned to joy.

"Purple Flame, run."

"Go to the Sky-splitting Sword Sect and notify the Great Elder. Have Northern Mountain Sword Master Xiao Yi head to the Sword Sect immediately."

"Xue Wushang wants to kill him."

Xue Wushang dared not kill the Northern Mountain County King nor the Sub Hall Master.

Because both had official positions and significant forces behind them.

But a Sword Master, that was just a symbol of a Sword Dao genius.

A day not reported to the Sword Sect, a day not counted as a Sword Sect disciple.

Also, among the top ten on the Flame Martial List, in terms of talent, each was no worse than any of the 36 Sword Masters.

Perhaps even stronger.

Xue Tu did not dare to deal with the Sword Master, but that didn't mean Young Valley Master Xue Wushang of the Blood Mist Valley would not dare.

Their identities were inherently different.

"Kill the Northern Mountain Sword Master, Xiao Yi?" Xiao Yi's face showed puzzlement.

The Sub Hall Master quickly and briefly explained.

"I see," Xiao Yi nodded, then turned to Xue Wushang.

So these guys were all here to trouble him.

"Purple Flame, let's go," urged the Sub Hall Master.

"No," Xiao Yi shook his head.

Then he flew independently in front of Xue Wushang.

"Who are you?" Xue Wushang didn't even spare Xiao Yi a glance,

asking emotionlessly.

"Yi Xiao," Xiao Yi replied indifferently.

"I've heard of this guy," Xue Tu said loudly.

"First genius of Northern Mountain County, Chief Steward of the Demon Hunting Hall, nicknamed Purple Flame, a master of Fire Control."

"Purple Flame? First genius?" A sneer crossed Xue Wushang's lips.

"How laughable."

Having said that, Xue Wushang's figure flashed.

He dashed past Xiao Yi towards the Sub Hall Master.

"Hmph," Xiao Yi snorted coldly, "You really think Northern Mountain County has no one?"

Similarly, his figure flashed, charging towards Xue Wushang.

At the same time, a sky full of Purple Flame poured out.

First surrounding Xue Wushang.

Then, Xiao Yi's fist wrapped in Purple Flame struck out with full force.

"Just a Chief Steward of the Demon Hunting Hall, and you think you can snatch someone from me?"

"How presumptuous."

Xue Wushang sneered disdainfully and also struck out with a punch.

With a loud boom,

the two punches collided.

The disdain on Xue Wushang's face instantly turned grim.

The next second, Xue Wushang was sent reeling dozens of meters back.

Xiao Yi, on the other hand, did not move an inch.

"What? Young Master Wushang was actually sent flying?"

"This can't be possible," Xue Tu exclaimed, eyes wide open.

"Some skill," Xue Wushang narrowed his eyes.

"You may be arrogant, but it doesn't mean you can run wild in Northern Mountain County," Xiao Yi said lightly.

Xiao Yi's physical strength was at Mystic Breakthrough Ninth Layer.

After using Asura Transformation.

His physical strength reached Earth Element Third Layer.

Combined with the Purple Flame on his fist,

it was only logical for a punch to send Xue Wushang flying.

Meanwhile, both the Sub Hall Master and Northern Mountain County King's eyes lit up.

"I almost forgot, this lad even killed the Old Monster Yougu," the Sub Hall Master muttered to himself.

Even though the Northern Mountain County King was held captive by two assassins from Blood Mist Valley,

he also laughed, saying, "Good, Purple Flame Yi Xiao has spoken well."

"Wushang, don't think you can bully Northern Mountain County just because you think it's defenseless."

Now, the Northern Mountain County King no longer addressed him as Young Master Xue,

instead calling him by his name.

...

"It was just my oversight," Xue Wushang sneered coldly.

"Is that enough for you to feel proud?"

"Northern Mountain County, just a bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well."

Having said that, Xue Wushang suddenly conjured a blood-colored chain in his hand,

the very chain previously shattered by Xiao Yi.

"Purple Flame, be careful," the Sub Hall Master shouted loudly.

"Xue Wushang's Martial Soul is the Blood Soul Chain, ranked as Blue Tier."

"Once it binds you, it's extremely difficult to escape."

"But it's very fragile."

"Just shatter it before it binds you."

By this time, Xue Wushang had already launched an attack towards Xiao Yi.

The Blood Soul Chain transformed into a sinister, ferocious blood-colored serpent.

"Hmph," Xiao Yi snorted coldly.

A sky full of Purple Flame poured out again.

"Xue Wushang, I hear you're an assassin."

"Debuted at 15 and undefeated ever since."

"So, are you scared?" Xue Wushang sneered coldly.

"No," Xiao Yi shook his head, still fearless.

"I just want to see if you really have the ability."

Xiao Yi had also been an assassin,

likewise undefeated since his debut.

No, he had lost once, and that loss cost him his life.

As soon as he finished speaking,

the 'Fire Sea' within Xiao Yi's inner Small World was instantly mobilized.

The originally omnipresent Purple Flame instantly went berserk.

Second update.
