Chapter 597: Outside the Square
When the next day arrived, the much-antic.i.p.ated battle agreement was about to begin. The Spirit Seal City South District was boiling up; the atmosphere was electric.
Due to the vigorous publicity by the Xi Men Clan, the gamble of this battle agreement was the biggest ever in history.
After all, the two people partic.i.p.ating in this battle agreement were both talented. The showdown of geniuses, coupled with the huge gamble from the clans, made for an interesting show.
The battle had not yet begun, but the square in the South District was already surrounded by layers of people. Everyone was there to witness the result of the battle agreement.
No matter who won this compet.i.tion, it would be famous in the Seals City South District, and even the entire Spirit Seal City.
Ye Mo’s entrance attracted many people’s attention, and even many young girls in the blooming season, who were all rippling in love, were staring at Ye Mo.
“Master Ye Mo, take a look,” Xia s.h.i.+yun said with a smile while following behind Ye Mo. “Your appearance has attracted the attention of more than a few women.”
Ye Mo shrugged helplessly and followed the people of Bamboo Forest Fort to one side.
Later, the people of Youlan Sky Estate arrived. Ding Laoguai entered the square with Ding Badao.
“Haha! Lord Xia Bao, you’re here early,” Ding Laoguai said with a strange smile. “Are you in a hurry to win this compet.i.tion?”
“From your son’s Force, it seems he is still in the Transcendence Fourth Realm,” Xia He said lightly. “It doesn’t matter if you come early or late, your son is bound to lose.”
“Haha! Badao is indeed weaker than Ye Mo.” Ding Estate Lord laughed, then looked at Ye Mo with interest and said, “Ye Mo, Nangong Wushang wanted me to give you a message. You must win this match.”
Hearing those words, Ye Mo’s face fell, and he said, “Ding Estate Lord, what do you mean?”
“Nothing much.” Ding Estate Lord smiled. “Try and guess yourself.” With a wave of his big sleeves, he walked to one side and waited for the compet.i.tion to begin.
“How could he know about Uncle Nangong? Did they capture him? ”
Ye Mo’s heart shook, and he immediately understood the meaning of Ding Laoguai’s words. They had captured Nangong Wushang, and the Estate Lord wanted Ye Mo to surrender.
Seeing Ye Mo’s strange expression, Xia He asked him, “Ye Mo, what’s going on?”
“That old man captured my friend.” Ye Mo never expected that they would use threaten Nangong Wushang to get him to lose this compet.i.tion.
“Ding Laoguai is too sinister.” Xia He’s face grew stormy. “What are you going to do?”
If Ye Mo went to save his friend’s life, he would lose the compet.i.tion. If he did that, the Bamboo Forest Fort would suffer a heavy loss.
“I don’t know.” Ye Mo shook his head. “I don’t even know if they really captured my uncle or not.”
Ye Mo looked at the several people from Youlan Sky Estate. His eyes shone with anger.
Then, he saw Elder Ding suspended in mid-air from a rooftop in the distance. Next to him were five people, Nangong Wushang, Wenren Chuchu, Wenren Dashang, Dong Fangxu, and Dong Fanghong. They were all motionless, as if they were bound.
Xia He also saw the five people on the rooftop and said, “Ye Mo, you can’t admit defeat in this match. There are so many people watching, you can’t just give up.”
“I know. If I want to lose, I have to lose without seeming to do it.” Ye Mo frowned. The five people had disappeared from the rooftop. Elder Ding must have taken them away.
“You stay here and hold on,” Elder Fu Qian said before he left the square. “I’ll go save your friends. As soon as your friends are rescued, I’ll inform you immediately. You try to delay the match as much as possible.”
He arrived at the Youlan Sky Estate. He was in the Profound World Realm; the warrior guards at the door couldn’t stop him. With a wave of his big sleeve, the bodies of those warriors completely exploded. The True Energy was in chaos, as all the experts were dead.
“Ding Wanchi, come out now!” Fu Qian rushed inside the Youlan Sky Estate and roared. The noise was like thunder, and it echoed through the estate. A few of the weaker guards were blown away, just from Fu Qian’s angry roar.
“Fu Qian, I know why you’re here,” Ding Wanchi said calmly. “You want to rescue Ye Mo’s five friends while the Estate Lord is away. To tell you the truth, the five of them are currently locked up in our dungeon, guarded by me and my guard Shen Canghai. You won’t be able to rescue them alone.”
“Ding Wanchi, did you forget the pain from when you got your scar?” Fu Qian asked. “Have you forgotten that you lost miserably to me three years ago?”
Fu Qian clenched his hands and said, “Do you think you can beat me? I’m in the mid-level Profound World Realm and can receive help from the power of the earth. You’re only in the low-level Profound World Realm and can only rely on the power of mountains. You’re far inferior to me.”
“Haha! You’ll only know if you try.” Ding Wanchi laughed, as he sent out a palm attack. Suddenly, the s.p.a.ce around them began to crack. Mountains and rivers shook angrily as an absolute power surged out.
Fu Qian also hit out a with palm, pus.h.i.+ng out three thousand worlds. Layer upon layer of palm prints appeared, and, as each palm print pushed down, the air began to explode.
Boom!
The two men yelled a few techniques at each other several times and were sent backward a few steps.
“You’ve advanced to the mid-level Profound World Realm?”
Fu Qian was shocked. His opponent was no longer weaker than him.
“Last Year,” Ding Wanchi smiled faintly. “I thoroughly comprehended the Xuanmark of the World. You won’t be able to defeat me, let alone save Ye Mo’s friends.”
“It’s enough as long as Master Fu Qian can stop you,” a voice yelled from afar. Ye Mo landed next to Fu Qian and said, “Master Fu Qian, you block him while I go save everyone.”
“What are you doing here?” Fu Qian asked with surprise. “Is the compet.i.tion over?”
“No, my avatar is currently fighting Ding Badao,” Ye Mo said. “That guy’s so weak that even my avatar can defeat him easily. As long as I save my friends, my avatar can defeat him in a snap.”
Ye Mo rushed past Ding Wanchi and kept going. Ding Wanchi didn’t stop him.
Ye Mo grabbed a guard and asked where the dungeon was. Then, he attacked, fighting a path toward the dungeon.
The Youlan Sky Estate was almost like a dead-end. There were countless guards everywhere. Although the guards were only in the low-ranked Transcendence Realm, they could still pose a threat when they fought together.
Ye Mo arrived at the dungeon and looked at the huge prison door. There were dozens of guards at the prison door. With a slap of thin air, the huge prison door blew open. The guards didn’t even have a chance to react before they were blown into powder.
“Ye Mo, how dare you break into the prison?” a man’s voice rang out. It was Shen Canghai.
Behind him stood all the guards of the Youlan Sky Estate. They rushed from every corridor, forming a wall in front of Ye Mo.
“Do you think your useless guards can stop me?” Ye Mo shouted. “It wasn’t a mistake for your second young master to offend me. Your biggest mistake was hurting my friends. Today, you all must die. ”
Looking at the fierce people in front of him, Ye Mo’s killing intent exploded out.
