"You are Ye Wang!?"
Mo Xuanyou looked at Ye Xuan up close, his brows furrowed. "An eighth-tier Great Emperor, facing a peak ninth-tier Great Emperor, who has consecutively killed ten ninth-tier Great Emperors."
"And not yet a hundred and fifty years old!"
"Merely by this, your talent is far superior to those old fossils. I will spar with you."
"Do you know... I am invincible among those of the same rank!"
As he spoke, Mo Xuanyou's body erupted with sword energy, and the aura of a second-tier Great Emperor dispersed. However, in Ye Xuan's eyes, it was like a hothouse flower.
"Come."
In contrast, Ye Xuan did not exert any aura.
Seeing Ye Xuan like this, Mo Xuanyou's expression turned grim, "Arrogant!!"
Mo Xuanyou thought he was arrogant enough, but the person opposite him was even more so. He had merely benefited from his age to reach the eighth-tier Great Emperor. Once he reached the Great Emperor realm, he would definitely be more powerful than this person.
"Is that so~"
Ye Xuan smirked.
Zzzt~
Terrifying lightning surged, filling the wooden sword. Crack!
Mo Xuanyou's prideful sword energy was instantly shattered by Ye Xuan's lightning-infused wooden sword. He was then forcefully flung away. The force was such that even a third-tier Great Emperor would struggle to withstand it. Mo Xuanyou gritted his teeth in pain as he was sent flying dozens of feet away.
"Too slow."
Mo Xuanyou, "You bastard!!"
At this, Mo Xuanyou's sword energy crisscrossed, attacking Ye Xuan with terrifying power.
However...
With a crack, he was once again sent flying dozens of feet by Ye Xuan's lightning wooden sword.
"Too weak an attack."
"Impossible!!"
Mo Xuanyou was stunned. He couldn't believe that even with his full strength, he was instantly defeated by someone who hadn't used any of his cultivation. "Again!"
Crack, crack, crack, crack~~
Muffled thuds echoed. Mo Xuanyou was utterly dominated, causing the surrounding crowd to twitch their lips. Especially the Imperial Palace guards. Damn it, this was their Third Prince, being utterly thrashed by King Ye like a child.
And this was happening in front of the Emperor Lord.
King Ye is too ruthless!!
As expected of someone who had consecutively killed ten ninth-tier Great Emperors of the Heavenly Wolf Empire. He even disregarded the Emperor Lord's face, let alone their Third Prince.
Crack~!
With another sword strike, Mo Xuanyou was sent flying again, this time for dozens of feet. Mo Xuanyou's mouth twitched. Damn it, what did King Ye eat to grow so strong?
When did Lightning Cultivators become this strong?!
Mo Xuanyou stopped attacking, as he knew very well he was no match for that guy.
"Cough cough... Alright."
Seeing that his authority had been established, Mo Junlin coughed and said, "Xuanyou, from now on, King Ye will be your master."
"This is what you said yourself, you cannot go back on your word."
He paused, and Mo Junlin continued, "One day, when you can defeat Ye Wang openly, I will no longer restrain you in any way."
Mo Xuanyou, "Father, you..."
"Enough!"
"Everyone disperse."
Mo Junlin gave Mo Xuanyou no chance to speak and vanished from the spot. Today was a double celebration. Not only had they captured the Eighth Prince of the Heavenly Wolf Empire, Di Lin, but they had also gotten rid of that troublesome third son.
In an instant.
Even the Imperial Palace guards who had been sparring with Mo Xuanyou retreated. Mo Xuanyou stared at Ye Xuan with wide eyes, his mouth twitching.
"Come here and perform the disciple ceremony."
"I, don't..."
Huh!?
Mid-sentence, Mo Xuanyou saw the lightning crackling from Ye Xuan's wooden sword, at least several times more potent than before. He gulped and quickly changed his tune, "Master above, please accept your disciple's bow!"
Thump~
Mo Xuanyou knelt directly on the ground. The kneel was fluid, without the slightest hesitation, clearly showing he had been beaten into submission by Ye Xuan.
"First, the first thing, hand over ten thousand high-grade Emperor Crystals as a betrothal gift."
Mo Xuanyou, "!!!"
"You..."
Mo Xuanyou wanted to say something but looked at the wooden sword in Ye Xuan's hand. "Fine, I'll pay!"
He said through gritted teeth. Although ten thousand high-grade Emperor Crystals were precious to ordinary people, they were not much in terms of resources for Mo Xuanyou. After all, if he wanted them, let alone ten thousand, even a hundred thousand high-grade Emperor Crystals were within his reach.
Thus, not only did he kneel to Ye Xuan, but he also handed over ten thousand high-grade Emperor Crystals, almost making Mo Xuanyou spit blood from anger.
Youthful arrogance, nothing more!
"Very good."
"A promising student."
Ye Xuan glanced at Mo Xuanyou. "Since you've taken me as your master, I'll give you a gift too."
Then, with a flip of his right hand, Ye Xuan produced a drop of vital blood, which was surprisingly the vital blood of a young dragon. "Consume this. As my disciple, your strength is too weak, and your talent is too poor."
Mo Xuanyou, "I~!!!"
"Good!!!"
Mo Xuanyou looked at the drop of vital blood. Although he didn't know what it was, he had some knowledge and knew it was extraordinary. Of course, there was also a desire for revenge against Ye Xuan. However, all of this was within Ye Xuan's calculations.
Boom!!!!
After consuming the vital blood, terrifying energy instantly spread throughout his limbs and bones. As expected, Mo Xuanyou, like Feng Chen, gained dragon bloodline.
However, Ye Xuan's actions didn't stop there!
As his cultivation entered the peak of the second-tier Great Emperor, he struck while the iron was hot and had Mo Xuanyou consume a [Emperor Breaking Pill]. His original aura of a second-tier Great Emperor peak directly advanced to the third-tier Great Emperor.
A fifteen-year-old third-tier Great Emperor was a prodigy of exceptional talent even in the Galaxy Empire, a genius that appeared once in a thousand, or even ten thousand years.
A moment later.
Mo Xuanyou stabilized his aura and stood frozen, "I am... a third-tier Great Emperor???"
"How can this be!!"
"To instantly elevate me from second-tier Great Emperor, past second-tier Great Emperor peak, directly to third-tier Great Emperor, this..."
"What a heaven-defying method!!"
After a long moment of stunned silence, Mo Xuanyou finally recovered and said, "King Ye, you..."
Dong~!
Before Mo Xuanyou could finish speaking, Ye Xuan flicked his finger at Mo Xuanyou's forehead. The pain brought tears to Mo Xuanyou's eyes. He, the dignified Third Prince of the Star River Empire, was being bullied like this.
"Call me Master."
Mo Xuanyou, "You bi..."
Dong!!
Crack~!
With another flick of Ye Xuan's finger, the hard floor of the Imperial Palace cracked. Spiderweb-like fissures spread out from Mo Xuanyou's feet.
Damn it!
That King Ye has gone mad, daring to treat this prince like this.
"Master!"
While thinking this in his heart, he didn't dare to delay and blurted out the words. Damn it, he truly feared that the next flick would kill him.
