“This guy is abnormal.”
One of the people present in the hall muttered as he resisted swallowing his saliva.
“Good boy, I’ve really underestimated you. However, I do not have the time to waste with you.” Xu Qiong’s eyes flashed. He could not believe that Ye Xiao instantly killed his four followers, but he soon came back to his senses and gritted his teeth.
Ye Xiao did not say anything. He simply looked at Xu Qiong and his eyes suddenly turned blood-red.
This was the Heavenly Demon Pupil.
The moment Ye Xiao’s eyes changed colors, Xu Qiong felt his soul being sucked by something. He shuddered in fear and immediately fell to the ground with a plop sound.
It was not just him, in fact, even his followers were in the same situation. They felt being stared at by a monster capable of sucking their soul and shredding the souls into pieces.
In their eyes, Ye Xiao was a giant devil who could insta kill them, and they would have no ability to resist him at all.
“Humph!”
Ye Xiao snorted and spoke coldly, “Don’t disturb me. Otherwise, that will be the last thing you’ll ever do!”
After saying that, he focused on the surroundings once again.
As for Xu Qiong and his followers, all of them were in a trance. As if they’ve lost the ability to even stand up, they did not move from their places. They were so scared that their bodies were still trembling non-stop even though Ye Xiao had already shifted his attention and his eyes had changed back to the original color.
“Who can tell me? What happened just now?”
People present at the scene were also astounded. They did not see Ye Xiao’s eyes changing colors, so they have no idea what happened.
But the people who had seen Ye Xiao’s eyes, they were all only slightly better than Xu Qiong and their followers.
As Ye Xiao observed the surroundings, he saw a floor made of warm jade rocks. Around the main hall, there were ten carved stone statues of strange beasts. They all had ferocious looks on their faces, and even though they were stone statues, one could still feel a tyrannical aura emanating from them.
After scanning around, Ye Xiao found that there were already four to five teams consisting of ten or so people in front of the hall, with dozens of people. However, these people were more or less injured. It was obvious that it was not easy to enter this place through the passage.
Ye Xiao’s gaze only swept across these people before looking towards another gate with no door. It was a huge open gate and seemed to be the path that leads directly to a palace-like structure.
Ye Xiao released his Divine Sense. Immediately, his Divine Sense spread out and headed towards the palace-like structure.
“Thud.”
However, the moment his Divine Sense touched the enormous gate, a heavy bell sound rang in Ye Xiao’s head, his Divine Sense suffered a heavy blow and quickly retreated back into its body. Ye Xiao could not help but let out a groan after suffering such a strong attack. His face was also somewhat pale.
“Damn! I should have been careful.” Ye Xiao’s eyes squinted as he muttered.
“Ignorant brat.” In those dozen or so teams, a few of them saw Ye Xiao suffer a loss and laughed mockingly.
This person was one of the people who has no idea what exactly happened to Xu Qiong and others. However, those people who knew what exactly happened, they did not dare to say a single word.
Ye Xiao did not care about these people. His gaze was fixated on the enormous gate. The restrictions on this enormous gate were extremely strong. It was obviously not easy for him to break it. From this, it could be seen that there was definitely a treasure inside the palace-like structure. Otherwise, how could such a powerful restriction be placed on the gate?
And the treasure hidden inside the palace was very likely a Celestial Spirit or even Celestial Destroyer Treasure.
Thinking about that, Ye Xiao’s eyes flashed with a burning light.
Because of the restrictions, everyone stood still on the spot. At the same time, they moved a distance away from each other in case someone tried to sneak attack them.
And as time passed, more and more people arrived. The first to arrive was one of the big families living in the Floating Cloud City, Lu Family.
After that, a few more teams rushed over. Among them, there were naturally teams from the other few cities as well as two secondary forces of the Floating Cloud Sect.
In a short period of time, other secondary forces also arrived.
It is just that Fang Yun seemed to have disappeared somewhere. He had yet to come here.
“Ok, everyone. Listen here. This hall is now under the control of Eight Secondary Forces of Floating Cloud Sect. You all should get the hell out of here in five minutes. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences of ignoring my words!”
A person named Mo Long stand out from the team of one of the secondary forces and spoke indifferently. It was as if he did not take anyone in the hall seriously.
His words immediately ignited dissatisfaction inside people’s hearts and they started speaking up.
On the other hand, Ye Xiao completely ignored Mo Long’s words and went to observe the restriction on the huge gate without any door. He wanted to look at the essence of this restriction with the help of his Eyes of Insight and break it so that he could enter and explore the palace-like structure.
“Are you deaf? Did you not hear me?”
When Mo Long saw Ye Xiao ignoring his words and staring to inspect the gate, he frowned. He was pissed off.
Although the other people also did not leave, they at least were hesitant about it and were trying to talk things out with them. But Ye Xiao completely ignored his words and started doing his own things which ignited the anger in his heart.
On the other hand, Qin Mu and Yi Xian looked at Ye Xiao with interest. It was as if something fun was about to happen, excitement flashed in both of their eyes.
Ye Xiao frowned and looked at Mo Long, then he turned his attention back to the restriction while saying, “Idiot!”
“You…”
Mo Long was already angry, and Ye Xiao’s words boosted that anger.
Ignoring everything, he immediately pounced on Ye Xiao to kill him. He was a Second Stage of Spirit Fusion warrior. His strength was already very shocking.
As he attacked, his punch brought a great shockwave along, piercing through the air and producing a not-likable sound.
“Bang!”
Ye Xiao suddenly turned and punched as well. He put all his physical strength into this attack.
After the collision, Mo Long was forced back dozens of steps while Ye Xiao only took two steps back.
This exchange shocked everyone, for no one expected a mere Late Stage Chaos Spirit Realm warrior to be capable of forcing a Second Stage of Spirit Fusion warrior back dozens of steps after the collision of their attacks.
The impact of the collision was so strong that Mo Long’s forehead started bleeding.
And his forehead was injured just from the impact of the collision. If one were to look at Mo Long’s hand, one could see the bones of his fingers coming out from his flesh. They were broken.
Mo Long wiped the blood from his face and swallowed a pill that immediately started recovering his bones for him. He looked at the bloodstain on his hand.
He took a deep breath and tried to control his fury, however, his originally white face contorted due to anger as it became somewhat hideous.
“Good, very good. I didn’t expect you to be able to injure me!”
Mo Long smiled sinisterly. He waved his hand and a golden long rod appeared. The body of the rod shook and an extremely sharp golden glow surged out. The golden glow spread and dyed the entire open ground in a golden color. 𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗹．𝐨𝗿𝗴
“Boy, to force me to use my weapon, even if you are going to die, you should be proud of yourself!”
Holding the golden rod in his hand, Mo Long spoke. His moment at this moment was like a god of war. Golden light surged and an arrogant aura rushed straight into the ceilings above his body. At the same time, a vicious aura slowly rose from within the golden light, causing the expressions of everyone present to change slightly.
This was an extremely brutal aura that made everyone’s heart heavy.
“As expected of a Mid Heavenly Soul Weapon. Just this aura alone is stronger than a martial warrior at the Three Stages of Spirit Fusion.” The surrounding crowd burst into noises as they stared at the Golden Rod in Mo Long’s hand with fiery eyes.
