Death… and me

The inferno from the palace was lighting up the sky like it was daytime. Clouds of smoke rose up from the royal palace. It could practically be seen from hundreds of miles away!

From Continent Center Citadel, the scene was like that of a falling nation!

The eldest young master of the Ji clan, Ji Zhu, was dragged out of bed by a King level master. With his eyes still barely opened, he ran to the royal palace in a blur. Naturally, his path was smooth because there were King level masters to pave the way for him. He was in the process of joining the competition unwillingly. In any case, participating in this competition would allow him to have something to talk about. At that very instant, he suddenly heard, "Awooh… Dog aunt!"

Ji Zhu was stunned for a moment. He then cursed out furiously, "Motherf*cker!" He spat onto the ground and turned to leave.

"Eldest young master! Eldest young master!" Three King level masters chased after him hurriedly as they were completely clueless about his reaction. Each one of them was very frustrated. This eldest young master was not in the least bit aggressive.

They could not believe that he simply took one look and decided to leave. Was he not able to see that all the other clans were fighting one another?

"The Ji clan will not participate in this competition." Ji Zhu glared viciously and bellowed, "Anyone who doesn't listen to me can crawl back by himself."

Subsequently, he went on his way back. Along the way, he cursed under his breath, "Motherf*cker! Motherf*cker! Motherf*cker…!"

Immediately upon leaving the royal palace, he ran into Luo Ke Wu, who asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going back to sleep. Is that alright with you?" Ji Zhu glared at him and spoke angrily.

Luo Ke Wu replied with great annoyance, "You're going back to sleep? You intend to go back to sleep at this crucial moment?"

"Move! Good dogs don't get in the way!" Young Master Ji Zhu was in a really bad state of mind. He thought that he had been played…

"Who are you scolding?" Luo Ke Wu glared back at Ji Zhu. Just as he was about to give chase, the King level masters of his clan held him back. He could only add on a few words, "Ji Zhu! Just you remember, motherf*cker! I will remember this!"

"What an idiot!" Eldest Young Master Ji Zhu spat scornfully and left.

Behind him, Eldest Young Master Luo Ke Wu's group rushed into the burning scene swiftly…

Boom! No one knew who did it, but the main hall of the royal palace had just collapsed…

Ji Mo no longer had any strength.

In fact, he had been exhausted long ago. It was no mean feat for him to be able to hang on while being chased by dozens of King level masters.

Unfortunately, the person that he was waiting for had not yet arrived! Hence, he had to hang on!

Surrounded by the thick smoke and fire, Ji Mo searched around as he ran. All of a sudden, he was filled with joy.

Hahaha, he's here!

Not too far away from him, he noticed a heroic looking Mo Tian Yun running towards him with his clan. From the other direction came Ao Xie Yun, who was also rushing over with the King level masters of the Ao clan.

Meanwhile, other King level masters were also flying over like meteors. Enemies came from all directions. It was truly a heaven-sent opportunity!

"Spare me! Spare me! I don't need this saber anymore…" Ji Mo cried out in a pitiful manner and jumped out instantly.

Upon arriving, Mo Tian Yun, Ao Xie Yun, Dong Wu Lei, and Xie Dan Qiong's groups immediately turned to look in this direction, with burning desires in their eyes.

"You can have it!" Before anyone could react, Ji Mo tossed the saber from his hand and turned to escape.

But… who could be paying attention to him at this critical moment? Everyone's mind and gaze had already been taken by the fascinating saber.

Under the light of the burning flames, Sunlight Saber shined blindingly. It seemed as if its light was burning in the hearts of everyone who rushed after it.

It was unclear as to whether it was intentional that Sunlight Saber flew straight into Mo Tian Yun's direction!

"Audacious!"

"My saber!"

"Motherf*cker! Get the saber for me!" These words came out of Li Xiong Tu's mouth as the eldest young master yelled and gave chase concurrently. At this point, his voice had changed so much that it sounded really passionate.

"Kill…"

Mo Tian Yun was triumphant, while Ao Xie Yun was startled and Xie Dan Qiong was surprised. Meanwhile, Dong Wu Lei gripped his saber tightly, while Luo Ke Wu howled as he rushed up…

A King level master of the Mo clan flew up to grab the saber as it flew in his clan's direction.

Mo Tian Yun had already carefully planned out his future. The moment he possessed the saber, he would leave this place at once and cease his training. Instead, he would return to Middle Three Heavens!

Mo Tian Yun would never have imagined that he would be able to obtain the saber at this very moment. So long as he had Sunlight Saber in his hand, he knew that he essentially owned half the secret required to become a Martial Saint.

As for the other half of the secret, he could always scheme, exchange, or even form alliances… Ultimately, there were many means of achieving this.

"Stop!"

"Stop him!"

Sounds of people shouting through the air rang out. Countless hidden weapons flew in the direction of the Mo clan. Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swish, swish, swish… Hidden weapons flew over the heads of the people of the Mo clan like a relentless downpour!

It was practically raining hidden weapons!

The three King level masters immediately jumped out from the group. A fierce cyclone of energy formed around their bodies within mere moments! In this crucial time, the reaction of the three King level masters had to be extremely fast and accurate.

Blades flashed as they sent the hidden weapons flying away. One of them even risked his own life and jumped through the hidden weapons with just his energy field protecting him. He was aiming straight for Sunlight Saber!

At that exact moment, an unimaginable thing occurred!

The flying saber suddenly stopped!

It was hanging in midair!

Thereafter, it immediately flew back!

"Motherf*cker! The saber is tied to a thread!" Mo Tian Yun cursed and spat angrily. This was a behavior that was rarely seen from him. His nice-looking face turned nasty as he yelled, "Bastard! Son of a b*tch!" Encountering a failure when he could already taste the success caused Eldest Young Master Mo to be on the verge of spitting out blood!

Right then, something flashed. Suddenly, the Sunlight Saber, that was flying back, made a pop noise before dropping down from the air.

Ao Xie Yun had a few coins in his hand. He had just used one of these coins to cut off the thread on the saber.

The saber was now falling down slowly. Coincidentally, its position was smack in the middle of the Ao clan and the Mo clan!

The martial experts of the Ao clan and the Mo clan began to rush in like wolves and tigers!

At that very moment, a sudden pop was heard. At the exact place where Sunlight Saber was falling from, something had exploded. A black mist which carried with it a light fragrance slowly began to flood out. Within just a short period of time, it covered an area of 30 square feet.

The moment the black mist rose up, Sunlight Saber fell to the ground with a loud clank.

It was situated right in the middle of the black mist.

A mocking voice said, "All of you should be careful. This is Bone Dissolving Spirit Dispersing Fragrance. Once it touches you, your bones will turn into black liquid. Don't you dare blame me for not giving you a fair warning."

All the martial experts in the room paused simultaneously! The King level master from the Mo clan was the nearest to the saber; one of his hands had already come into contact with the black mist. Immediately, he pulled back, but his hand had turned black. Black liquid began to drip from the tip of his fingers endlessly.

The pain was absolutely unbearable. He could not help but yell at the top of his lungs.

"Petty creature!" Mo Tian Yun and Ao Xie Yun roared angrily as they turned and glared at the figure.

A young man who was dressed in black appeared. He had a shy yet sly smile on his face. He stood outside the circle, with two subordinates in black standing closely behind him.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I had already warned you; why did you put your hand in there?" This young man in black appeared as if he was deeply regretful. He continued, "This, this… This arm of yours is about to become black liquid. What to do? This is a King level master after all."

At first glance, he appeared gentle and weak. Furthermore, he seemed shy and quiet. However, when he had made his move, it was unexpectedly cruel! Worse still, he did it without mercy!

"Take out the antidote!" Mo Tian Yun screamed furiously. The right arm of the King level master from the Mo clan was now swollen and the black liquid was flowing at a faster pace, from the tips of his fingers.

Surprisingly, even with the strength of a King level master, he did not have any way to fight such a poison!

Besides, the saber was now surrounded by this poison!

"Oh, I would love to give you the antidote. But… I want that saber." The young man in black looked at Mo Tian Yun with a sad face, "I'm very weak. Brother Mo, could you please give me a hand?"

Mo Tian Yun's head was boiling.

A look of great conflict appeared in his eyes.

If Sunlight Saber was in the hands of the Mo clan, it would be the perfect opportunity for the Mo clan to rise up. However, the King level master who was injured was also an important person in his Mo clan!

Would people not be disheartened if he did not save his life?

"Brother Mo… Could it be that this mediocre saber is more important than the life of a precious King level master from your clan?" The young man in black asked in an innocent tone.

Mo Tian Yun's face twitched endlessly; his facial expression changed countless times within a short period of time.

At this moment, Chu Yang was secretly watching that youth in black. Judging from his dark stance and natural attitude, Chu Yang came to the conclusion: This person is one of the future top twelve people in Middle Three Heavens, Poison Spirit!

He looked at Sunlight Saber, which was on the ground. At this juncture, the black mist was thinning. The Mo clan was still the closest to the saber! It was almost as if all they had to do was to reach out to grab the saber and it would be theirs!

Mo Tian Yun's countenance flickered constantly. All of a sudden, he glared and yelled, "Uncle Cheng Gui! Your nephew will have to apologize to you today! For the future of the clan, I order you to take Sunlight Saber out!"

Unexpectedly, that King level master was the King level leader of the Mo clan, Mo Cheng Gui!

In the clan, he was actually Mo Tian Yun's uncle!

Immediately, Ao Xie Yun became guarded. Mo Tian Yun was so heartless that his heart had turned absolutely cold. For the clan and his own benefit, he did not even care that it was his uncle's life at stake. He simply tossed the man aside, without even blinking for a moment!

Just then, Mo Cheng Gui's eyes were filled with immense sadness. He knew that their opponent had used the poison for the sole purpose of forcing the Mo clan to help them get the saber. Now that Mo Tian Yun had already denied the request of their opponent, his fate was sealed.

He gritted his teeth and screamed out loud. He then jumped into the black mist. The next moment, Sunlight Saber flew out from within the mist. With his entire body in the black mist, he cried out pitifully, "Eldest young master, the people in the family will depend on your care!"
