Soul Emperor Martial God

The Meteor Sword Master and Fierce Tiger Sword Master glanced awkwardly at Xiao Yi.

But they did not ask him to stay.

They were at the Earth Element First Layer.

Naturally, they could easily discern Xiao Yi's cultivation level.

Only Mystic Breakthrough Ninth Layer.

Whereas the Wanshan Sword Master was a genuine Earth Element First Layer.

Moreover, disciples from the Wanshan Sword Sect were all formidable.

Weighing the pros and cons, they chose not to offend the Wanshan Sword Master.

Xiao Yi turned around and walked away, followed by Ye Ming.

Yu Rulong glared angrily at the Wanshan Sword Master before also following.

"So, you're upset?" The Wanshan Sword Master saw Yu Rulong's angry gaze and couldn't help but laugh.

"Hmph, blame your own weakness."

"We're already being merciful by not taking your sword points."

"But..." The Wanshan Sword Master suddenly laughed sinisterly.

"If you encounter that raiding team."

"And they steal your sword points, don't blame us."

"Anyway, those sword points will eventually end up in our hands."

"Dream on, idiot." Yu Rulong cursed without turning his head.

"You're courting death." The Wanshan Sword Master's face chilled.

In his eyes, a mere newly-achieved Mystic Breakthrough First Layer

dared to speak to him with such a tone, it was nothing short of an insult.

He was about to make a move.

Unexpectedly, a cold aura instantly enveloped him.

"If you want to die, feel free to make a move," Xiao Yi suddenly stopped and gave him a cold glance.

"Gulp" The Wanshan Sword Master swallowed.

That chilling, murderous cold made him panic internally.

"Let's go," Xiao Yi said indifferently.

"Wait." Suddenly, a voice called out.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned.

The speaker was Sword Master Xingmo.

"Northern Mountain Sword Master, let me join you," Sword Master Xingmo smiled.

"Why?" Xiao Yi looked puzzled.

"Hehe," Sword Master Xingmo laughed, "After all, I allied with you first."

"Now there's no reason to leave you for someone else's group."

"I'll come too." Suddenly, a charming voice sounded.

It was the Nine River Sword Master, Zhou Yueyao.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned even more.

"You're coming too? Following me, you're not afraid of danger?"

"Don't flatter yourself, who said I was following you," Zhou Yueyao retorted.

Zhou Yueyao looked at Ye Ming and said, "Brother Ye, we've faced adversity together in Meteor County."

"And have drunk together too."

"Let our Nine River County disciples join you."

"If we encounter that raiding team, at least we'll have a stronger chance of surviving."

Ye Ming smiled and said, "Thank you."

Xiao Yi also smiled, but said nothing.

"You're both crazy," the Wanshan Sword Master scoffed.

"Following the Northern Mountain County's group, you'll soon be robbed of all your sword points."

The crowd didn't answer him.

The three Sword Master groups kept to themselves and left.

They really didn't want to see that nauseating face of the Wanshan Sword Master any longer.

Xiao Yi certainly didn't consider him a threat.

Just couldn't be bothered to argue with such a person.

Of course, if the Wanshan Sword Master really provoked him,

he wouldn't mind killing him.

...

The three Sword Master groups headed into the distance.

Since the other party didn't welcome their group,

they no longer stayed within the same area.

Once everyone had indeed moved far away,

Yu Rulong suddenly asked, "What's wrong with that Wanshan Sword Master."

"Why does it seem like he's targeting our Northern Mountain County?"

Zhou Yueyao pouted and said, "It's definitely because of the Purple Flame incident, he's taking his anger out on you."

"He's already lost face once in Meteor County."

"At Medicine King Valley, he continued to lose face, and multiple times at that."

Sword Master Xingmo also said, "From what I know, Wanshan Sword Master is extremely narrow-minded."

"I've also heard about the refining competition."

"He wouldn't let it go without retaliating against you."

Yu Rulong's face was bitter, "Why does Purple Flame Yi Xiao have so many enemies?"

"I think we should just distance ourselves from him."

"No." Ye Ming spoke seriously, "Although Brother Yi has many enemies,"

"he has helped us multiple times before, his enemies are inevitably linked to us."

With that, Ye Ming looked towards Xiao Yi and said, "Junior Brother Xiao Yi,"

"Don't listen to Junior Brother Yu's nonsense."

"Hmm," Xiao Yi touched his nose awkwardly.

"What should we do next?" Zhou Yueyao asked.

"Wait," Xiao Yi spoke in a low voice.

"Wait?" Everyone looked puzzled.

"The great battle is about to erupt," Xiao Yi said in a low voice again.

"What?" Everyone was startled.

Xiao Yi's expression turned solemn, "The spiritual energy throughout the forest is mobilizing."

"It's happening quickly."

"It seems that among the team composed of geniuses from various counties,"

"there is a formidable powerhouse."

Although Xiao Yi was only at Mystic Breakthrough Ninth Layer Cultivation,

his physical strength had reached Earth Element Fifth Stage, which made his senses exceptionally sharp.

"Now, it depends on who that team targets."

"If they target us, we fight."

"If they target the Wanshan Sword Master and his group, then we shall go and watch."

After Xiao Yi spoke, he chuckled.

"Watch?" Zhou Yueyao slightly frowned.

"Yes, go and spectate," Xiao Yi smiled.

"You really hold grudges," Zhou Yueyao laughed covering her mouth.

Just as Zhou Yueyao finished speaking,

the next second, the ground shook.

Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy suddenly surged rapidly from all directions towards one direction.

That direction was previously where Wanshan Sword Master and his team were located.

"It looks like that team has targeted Wanshan Sword Master and his group," Xiao Yi said.

"Such a terrifying momentum." Sword Master Xingmo's face changed.

"It's definitely a Martial Artist above the Earth Origin Realm," Zhou Yueyao stated confidently.

"Let's go and take a look," Xiao Yi said.

As he spoke,

the entire forest trembled violently again.

"He's really no ordinary person," Xiao Yi muttered to himself.

The ground was shaking so much that the group could hardly stand firm.

They could only fly through the air to get there.

Of course, since they had previously moved away,

the return trip by flying took several minutes.

By the time they returned,

indeed, the Sword Master's team had begun fighting with a team of geniuses from various counties, numbering around two thousand.

But, it seemed like the Sword Master's team was at a disadvantage.

The Meteor Sword Master was firmly restrained by a cold-looking youth.

"Jie Mo?" Xiao Yi was slightly surprised.

That cold youth was none other than Jie Mo.

Jie Mo was the son of the Commandery Prince of Xingmo County,

as well as a renowned genius of Xingmo County,

but he was not a disciple of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

Further away, another youth in a black robe,

completely restrained both the Fierce Tiger Sword Master and the Wanshan Sword Master single-handedly.

"That guy…" Xiao Yi looked at the man in the black robe, feeling somewhat familiar.

On the other hand,

the nearly two thousand geniuses from various counties were besieging the other Sword Masters and Sword Sect disciples.

Although the Sword Master's team was stronger,

they only amounted to about a hundred people.

Under siege, they were at a significant disadvantage.

Fortunately, a few of the stronger Sword Masters managed to stabilize the situation.

"Should we go out and help?" Zhou Yueyao asked.

"Not yet," said Sword Master Xingmo.

Suddenly, the ground trembled again.

In the distant fight,

the youth in the black robe suddenly shouted loudly, and three huge Tree Giants appeared out of nowhere.

Together, the Tree Giants completely overwhelmed the Wanshan Sword Master and the Fierce Tiger Sword Master.

"Hahahaha," the youth in the black robe suddenly laughed loudly.

"You two trashes, especially you, you useless fool."

The black-robed youth was clearly speaking to the Wanshan Sword Master.

"Weren't you very arrogant before?"

"Northern Mountain County is the weakest county? All are useless Martial Artists?"

"Who gave you the courage to say that?"

"Now the useless ones are you."

"I'll tear your mouth apart."

The words of the black-robed youth were ice cold.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yi, hiding in a dark area, suddenly had a change in expression.

He finally recognized the black-robed youth.

"Heavenly Tree Martial Soul?" Xiao Yi looked surprised.

"Zhong Wuyou?"

Indeed, that black-robed youth was the Young Tower Master of the Shadow Tower from Northern Mountain County, Zhong Wuyou.
