“Sure! I guess there are no more tricks for you to pull now. Elder Liu, deactivate the True Energy s.h.i.+eld and let them go!”

Ye Mo accepted the book of the Heaven’s Flaming Sword, put it into his Dimensional Bracelet, and gave this order.

Liu Qingcheng bowed slightly towards Ye Mo, then her skinny arm waved and the True Energy s.h.i.+eld was deactivated, allowing Tais.h.i.+ Dan, Tais.h.i.+ Qing, and the elder in the grey robe to leave.

“Young master, now we have given the Heaven’s Flaming Sword to Ye Mo. What should we do if the clan leader finds out?” The elder in the grey robe’s eyebrows knitted tightly together.

“There is no solution other than playing the delaying tactic now. Losing the book is a serious crime. No matter what happens, none of us can tell anybody about it. Understand?”

“I understand. But was it really appropriate to give the book to Ye Mo?”

Pondering for a while, Tais.h.i.+ Dan became a bit worried. Ye Mo had outstanding talents and always seemed to be reaching unexpected achievements.

“Please don’t worry, my brother. Father put a special seal on the book, which cannot be unlocked even by a martial artist of the Spirit Devour Realm. After a year, when we become the elite heads of Qingyun Alliance, father will only punish us mildly for losing the book. Therefore, this year, we have to work harder at training. Understand?” Dais.h.i.+ Qing said.

“Understood!”

Back at the Xiao family’s palace, everyone was speechless about the results of the fight. They thought Ye Mo would definitely die, and the feast would turn into a bloodbath. But it turned out Ye Mo used unknown tactics to invite a powerful martial artist to the feast, and that martial artist had great respect towards Ye Mo.

“Sorry for ruining everyone’s mood!” Ye Mo apologized to the guests.

“Please don’t!” The guests cupped their hands and laughed.

Ye Mo nodded, then turned to Qin Hao and said, “Qin Hao, you deliberately hid the Kill Order of the Emperor from Uncle Xiao. Uncle Xiao was the City Lord of Limestone City and had a right to know about the content of the Kill Order. I know you planned to use Man Tianhe to eradicate the Xiao family, so you can officially take charge of Limestone City. However, your plan is now foiled and Man Tianhe is dead. Now, do you choose to voluntarily give up the seats of City Lord and bring your armies away from Limestone City or choose to die here? Your choice!”

Ye Mo has Elder Liu at his side now, so n.o.body dared to act against him.

“Ye Mo, don’t push your luck too far!” Qin Hao’s expression became cold. His True Energy was wavering in the air, like a lion going berserk.

“Pus.h.i.+ng my luck too far? If it weren’t for Elder Liu, your conspiracy would have succeeded. There is no mercy in this world for you. If you are merciless to me, I will be ruthless to you. Allowing you and your people to leave safely has stretched the limits of mercy already as it is,” Ye Mo replied coldly.

“I am a relative of the Emperor. Aren’t you afraid of the Emperor’s punishment for offending me?” Qin Hao’s complexion totally changed, turning red as he yelled in rage.

“You were, but not anymore. Don’t threaten me with the Emperor. Your sister, who might not have even met the Emperor herself, used to live in the Emperor’s palace. Now she has pa.s.sed away, so the Qin family has nothing to do with the Emperor. I will grant you three days to gather you men and leave Limestone City. Otherwise, Elder Liu will not spare any of you.”

“Father, a wise man never fights when the odds are against him. Ye Mo is supported by an incredibly strong martial artist, so we cannot do anything without suffering loss. Once I enter the Tiandi Alliance and my strength becomes recognized by the elders in the alliance, I will definitely make Ye Mo pay for what he did,” Qin Tianmu attempted to persuade Qin Hao.

Qin Hao gritted his teeth, then spitted out a promise, “I will. Limestone City will belong to the Xiao family from now on.”

On the roof of the Xiao family’s palace, a gorgeous lady stood.

“It seems like I worried too much. Ye Mo, your growth indeed amazes me.”

“Brother Ye Mo, Qi Ying is on the roof.”

After Ling’er’s reminder, Ye Mo’s pupils contracted and he raised his head up, spotting a silhouette he had missed for so long. The person spotted him looking at her, then vanished into the thin air.

With 68 streams of Dragon Power being directed towards his legs, Ye Mo bent his knees and, like a cannonball, shot himself upwards. Watching the silhouette about to disappear, Ye Mo did not hesitate to accelerate to his maximum speed and chase after Qi Ying.

“Qi Ying, why won’t you meet me after you have come all the way here? You have been worried about me all along.” Ye Mo thought. When the distance between him and Qi Ying grew, Ye Mo became agitated. If he lost track of her, it would be extremely difficult to find her again.

“Brother Ye Mo, Ling’er will help you this time. Don’t forget you owe Ling’er once.”

Ling’er seemed to sense Ye Mo’s emotions and sighed. She waved her hands and released two streams of mysterious power to the Mortal Gates of Ye Mo’s two legs, which also made Ling’er’s body paler.

Ling’er sacrificed her spirit energy and deployed two body seals on the Mortal Gates of his two legs.

As a result, once the two seals were activated, the Dragon Power within Ye Mo rushed towards the Mortal Gates of his two legs, raising his running speed by ten fold.

Watching Ye Mo’s horrifying acceleration, Qi Ying could not be more amazed. What trick did Ye Mo pull which raised his speed to such a level?

“Qi Ying, do you still want to hide from me?”

Utilizing his Dragon Power and the Crossfading Technique, Ye Mo accelerated further and blocked Qi Ying by standing right in front of her. Both of them stood on the same roof.

“Within two months, you have grown from a boasting youngster into a man who can hire a Heaven’s Strength Realm martial artist. The progress you have made is astonis.h.i.+ng.” Blocked by Ye Mo, Qi Ying did not run anymore.

“Are you going to criticize me again this time?” Ye Mo stared at her gorgeous face and asked.

“Ye Mo, I am glad you have grown a lot. But no matter how much you have achieved, you cannot change my fate. You will die for doing too much. I only wish that you train yourself in a humble manner and don’t infringe the divine rules.”

Ye Mo answered faintly, “Why not? I understand the Emperor has great strength and good talents, as well as being the ruler of Tianwu Kingdom. But none of these will a.s.suage my determination. No matter in the past, in the present, in the future, you, Qi Ying, will always be the woman of my dreams,” Ye Mo a.s.sured with sincerity and determination.

“Why are you willing to do so much?” Qi Ying sighed.

“You have given me your most precious belonging. If I cannot give you a future in return, I am unqualified to be a man. No matter who stands in my way, he cannot stop me. Also, you better not show up anymore. My challenge will be a test of life and death. Only after overcoming the challenges will become capable of defeating the Emperor,” Ye Mo said

“Ye Mo, I admit I am touched by your determination. You are about to enter the Qingyun Alliance. The Alliance has dozens of strong martial artists. If you become a head in the alliance within a year, I will no longer stop you from challenging the Emperor. Only after becoming the head, you will be able to give me a glimpse of hope. Only a glimpse,” Qi Ying said, then spread her two wings of True Energy and flew straight into the sky. “Ye Mo, although you progress is quick, it is nothing compared to mine. I have already reached the True Energy Realm. There is still a long path ahead of you.”

After saying these words, her wings vibrated and she became a curving line disappearing into the distance.

“I am looking forward to seeing whether you can change my fate!”
