Lu Ye stepped forward and looked condescendingly at Ye Xiong.
Finally, Ye Xiong was flustered upon seeing the man’s impassive gaze.
“Ye Six, I’m your Uncle, so you can’t kill me. I don’t think you want to be accused of killing your relative, do you?” Ye Xiong said with difficulty. Even at this point, he still had the instinct to fight for a chance to survive.
However, only a Saber Light responded to him.
Certainly, Ye Six’s Uncle had nothing to do with Lu Ye.
After Ye Xiong was killed, he was seen with his eyes wide open. It seemed that he didn’t expect Lu Ye to end his life without hesitation.
In the middle of the night, Tyrant Blade Manor descended into turmoil.
The news of Pang Wanhai and Ye Xiong getting killed soon spread. The disciples had all left. Ye Xiong’s Wives had run away as they were worried that Lu Ye would kill them as well.
In fact, Lu Ye wasn’t in the mood to do so.
Although he had to act in a way that matched Ye Six’s identity, killing Ye Xiong and Ye Lang was sufficient. Ye Xiong’s Wives were mostly commoners. Even those who had cultivated were weak.
Lu Ye approached the young girl and dispelled the Defensive Ward before saying, “You should leave as well and start a new life. If there’s anything you want in the manor, just take it.”
Tyrant Blade Manor was a thing of the past in Feng Zhou. Lu Ye didn’t care about the valuables in the manor. Those things were treasures to the commoners, but they were useless to cultivators.
The young girl knelt in front of Lu Ye and pressed her head against the floor three times before leaving in a hurry.
Then, Lu Ye tapped on the Battlefield Imprint and sent Yi Yi a message.
At the break of dawn, Lu Ye was the only one in the manor.
There was an island in the middle of the lake that was shaped like a saber with some simple-looking wooden houses on it. The bamboo forest in front of the houses was in stark contrast to Tyrant Blade Manor’s solemn atmosphere, but it was serene and scenic.
Lu Ye picked up a chair and became seated in front of one of the houses. As he fiddled with a black stone in his hand, he fell into his thoughts.
Although he could be considered knowledgeable, he couldn’t tell what the stone was made from.
However, the stone contained the manual of the Tyrant Blade Technique. It was also the opportunity that Ye Ying had obtained when he was young. Lu Ye didn’t expect to get it easily.
He came to Tyrant Blade Manor to get revenge mainly because of Tyrant Blade Technique. However, he kept his expectations low since Ye Xiong had partnered up with Divine Will Sect this time. Even if there was any good stuff, those from the Divine Will Sect would’ve snatched everything, especially the manual of Tyrant Blade Technique. There was no way it was still in the manor.
Initially, he thought that he would have to destroy Divine Will Sect before he would have a chance to retrieve the manual.
Unexpectedly, he found the manual in Pang Wanhai’s Storage Bag. This came as a surprise to him.
He wasn’t aware that finding the manual in the manor was also a surprise to Pang Wanhai. He had been staying in the manor instead of returning to Divine Will Sect because he wanted to comprehend the blade technique for a few days more.
He didn’t expect to be killed eventually. It seemed that the blade technique wasn’t meant for him even though he had always craved it.
The manual wasn’t the only thing that Lu Ye had acquired.
It had been a long time since Ye Ying established Tyrant Blade Manor, and he had collected many things related to the Way of Blades, which included the insights written by powerful cultivators. They were all placed in the manor’s library, and Lu Ye had kept everything inside his Storage Bag.
He went through them and realised the rewards were much better than he thought.
Due to the limit in this world, the Cloud River Realm was the best the cultivators here could achieve. It was for this reason that the cultivators focused on refining their techniques since their cultivation wouldn’t improve further.
As a result, the Cloud River Realm Masters in this world were generally stronger than those in Jiu Zhou when it came to their combat skills, especially the Ninth-Order Masters. No one knew how ample their heritages were until they got into life-and-death battles.
Pang Wanhai’s death was unfair. He judged Lu Ye’s abilities by what he knew about the cultivators in this world. Therefore, he didn’t expect to be hurt by the wards Lu Ye had set up in advance.
It was beyond anyone’s imagination that a Combat Cultivator was also well-versed in the Way of Wards.
If they had fought head-on, it would’ve been a prolonged battle.
The insights written by the Cloud River Realm Masters weren’t the only things in the library. There were Divine Ocean Realm Masters in Soaring Dragon Boundary back then. Although hundreds of years had passed, the things they had left behind remained intact.
Lu Ye’s trip to this world was worthwhile since he had acquired the manual of the Tyrant Blade Technique and the things in the library.
These items were what he could never find in the martial world of Jiu Zhou.
Just then, a ray of light broke through the air and soon landed on the ground, revealing two similar-looking figures. They were none other than Yi Yi and Ye Liuli.
After destroying Ye Xiong the night before, Lu Ye sent a message to Yi Yi. However, since Ye Liuli was still unconscious at that time, Yi Yi didn’t disturb her.
It wasn’t until Ye Liuli regained consciousness that they came to this place together.
After a night’s rest, Ye Liuli looked more energetic.
“Sixth Brother…” she called out and looked around.
She was the one who built the wooden houses on the island, and it was the place she loved the most. Other than her, no one else in the manor was allowed to come to this place.
It was a place most familiar to her, but the people she was familiar with were long gone. She was understandably sorrowful.
“Ye Xiong is dead. There was also a Ninth-Order Master from Divine Will Sect, but I don’t know his name. Anyway, I killed him as well,” Lu Ye explained.
Ye Liuli had no idea how Lu Ye had achieved that. There was no doubt that the death of her enemies was something worth celebrating, but she felt a lump in her throat as her eyes turned bloodshot. Soon, tears slid down her cheeks.
“It’s all Ye Xiong’s fault. He exposed Ye… our Father’s whereabouts. That was why those from Divine Will Sect conspired to kill him.”
His identity was Ye Six, but he found it awkward to call Ye Ying his ‘Father’.
“Get some rest. I’ll try to get revenge later.”
Ye Liuli shook her head with teary eyes. “That’s good enough, Sixth Brother.”
All her relatives were dead, and she was only left with Lu Ye. Since the culprit was killed, she had basically gotten her revenge. As such, she didn’t want Lu Ye to deal with Divine Will Sect. If Lu Ye was also killed, she would be on her own in this world.
Certainly, Lu Ye was fine with that as he had obtained the things he wanted. Since Ye Liuli had said so, he respected her decision. He nodded and said, “Get some rest. You must be exhausted.”
Despite that, he knew that those from Divine Will Sect wouldn’t let him off. Even if he didn’t go looking for them, they would come to kill him.
After all, Pang Wanhai was killed in this place. The death of a Ninth-Order Master was a huge loss to Divine Will Sect. There was no doubt they would do something about it.
It was unless he and Ye Liuli tried to get rid of Divine Will Sect by leaving Feng Zhou.
However, he desperately wanted to comprehend the rewards he had acquired, so he wasn’t willing to be on the run.
Those from Divine Will Sect were powerful. If he went looking for them, he might not be able to defeat them. Nevertheless, if they had the guts to come to the manor, they would end up in a horrible state.
Ward Cultivators were most adept at fending off enemies. Given enough time and resources, a Ward Cultivator could turn his wards into an army.
Ye Liuli obliged and entered a wooden house to get some rest. Lu Ye told Yi Yi to take care of her before he went around the island to build some wards.
On the Cloud River Battlefield, he had been targeted by those from Thousand Demon Ridge on many occasions, but he was still alive and kicking. Regardless of how powerful those from Divine Will Sect were, they couldn’t be stronger than Thousand Demon Ridge.
While he was busy building wards, those from Divine Will Sect got wind of what had happened.
Many people had left the manor that day, so it wasn’t surprising that the news was spread.
The destruction of Tyrant Blade Manor had already sent a shock wave across the martial world in Feng Zhou. After all, Tyrant Blade Manor was a powerful great force. Nevertheless, what happened next was even more astounding.
Lu Ye returned to the manor on his own before killing Ye Xiong and Pang Wanhai. He had single-handedly gotten his revenge.
If not for the fact that many people had said the same thing, no one would’ve believed it.
Ye Xiong was an Eighth-Order Master while Pang Wanhai was the Deputy Sect Master of the Divine Will Sect as well as a Ninth-Order Master. As far as everyone was concerned, Lu Ye was only a Sixth-Order Master. How did he even kill the two of them?
They didn’t know the details of the battle, but they could only believe it since it was the truth.
Unlike the cultivators who had nothing to do with this matter, those from Divine Will Sect reacted furiously.
It was a serious matter that the Deputy Sect Master was killed in Tyrant Blade Manor. Although it was rumoured that Lu Ye was able to kill Ninth-Order Masters, those from Divine Will Sect couldn’t let him off just like that.
In the past few days, many of them tried sneaking into the manor to find out what had happened.
However, the entire manor was like a bottomless abyss. All the cultivators who tried entering the manor had gone missing, and it wasn’t certain if they were dead or alive.
One of them was an Eighth-Order Elder from the Sect.
They were horrified upon hearing the news and speculated that a mysterious expert was behind Lu Ye. Otherwise, how was a Sixth-Order Master supposed to achieve all this on his own?
Perhaps it was the mysterious expert who had killed Ye Xiong and Pang Wanhai.
After some of them were killed, those from the Divine Will Sect no longer had the guts to act rashly. They only told some people to monitor the manor from afar.
Humans were fearful of the unknown. Those from Divine Will Sect dared to kill Ye Ying and attack Tyrant Blade Manor because they were fully aware of the latter’s power.
However, the entire manor seemed to be shrouded in a fog. Before they could find out what was going on, they wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.
That saved Lu Ye a lot of trouble.
The reason those from Divine Will Sect who tried sneaking into the manor had gone missing was that they had fallen into the wards.
No one in Soaring Dragon Boundary could detect the wards that Lu Ye had built. Even the Sect Master of Divine Will Sect would end up in a horrible state if he fell into the wards, let alone those disciples.
For the past few days, Lu Ye wasn’t in a rush to cultivate Tyrant Blade Technique or comprehend the insights he had acquired from the library.
Instead, he had been focused on meditation to relieve the pressure on his soul.
