Chapter 2449 - 2454: Tearing Off the Mask

Chapter 2449: Chapter 2454: Tearing Off the Mask

Lingering above the abandoned volcanic crater, Ye Tiandi slowly turned around.

A sinister smile hung on his face.

If he dared not act against Xia Liu now,

he would never muster the courage in his lifetime.

"Hmm, it’s a good place."

Xia Liu cooperated with Ye Tiandi and nodded lightly.

"Interesting, you don’t seem surprised at all."

Ye Tiandi was slightly shocked by Xia Liu’s demeanor.

But no matter how calm and composed he appeared, today he must die!

"When your two subordinates made a move, I understood it was your plan and order."

"Haha! Indeed, later when I couldn’t traverse the desert to reach the fifth layer, you assisted me, allowing you to live for so long. It was my way of repaying your help."

"Forget about repaying your kindness; if we must settle it, let your shattered demon infant be the payment."

Xia Liu’s words were piercing, with not a trace of fear.

"Haha! It seems you’re very confident! Even knowing I’ve calculated against you, you’re not the least bit scared!"

Ye Tiandi laughed, as Xia Liu still wanted to calculate against him.

What audacity he had!

"Are you aware of the recent events concerning the Demon King?"

"What about the Demon King?"

That was not something Ye Tiandi was privy to.

In recent years, the Eastern Region had always been in a sealed state.

Ignoring outside intelligence, and the outside knew nothing about the Eastern Region.

For the sake of fulfilling his inner desires, he had risked it all.

"It seems you don’t know."

Xia Liu laughed.

No wonder Ye Tiandi dared to tear his face with him so brazenly.

It seemed he had great confidence in his strength.

"What about the Demon King?"

Xia Liu suddenly brought up the Demon King, the matter seemed not simple.

Ye Tiandi was curious.

"The Demon King’s demon infant was shattered on a desolate ridge in the Southern Region, and if you, King Ye, choose today, future generations might not be able to hold memorials here."

"Courting death!"

Understanding the implication in Xia Liu’s words.

Ye Tiandi couldn’t help but explode in anger.

"Don’t be impulsive; I originally didn’t intend to do anything to you, especially since this is our first meeting."

Xia Liu continued, "But you, Ye Tiandi, truly left me speechless. I don’t even know when I offended you."

"Your very existence is a mistake! Therefore, you must die!"

Ye Tiandi spoke bluntly.

"I see. Then I have nothing more to say. Just a piece of advice: if you don’t want to die, cripple your own dantian and leave."

...

"Haha!"

"Kid! You probably have no idea who you’re up against!"

"Ask us to cripple our own dantian, can’t you distinguish between reality and dreams?"

"Hahaha! Truly an amusing brat!"

"With King Ye present today, you will die without a doubt!"

...

Xia Liu’s words brought disdain from Ye Ming and others.

He truly dared to talk.

In front of four Demon Lords of the seventh rank and a King.

Where did his confidence come from?

"It seems you’ve already made your decision."

Watching Ye Ming and the others, Xia Liu shook his head helplessly.

There are always those in the world who do not know their limits.

Only when they reach an irredeemable point, do they lower their heads.

How pathetic and lamentable.

"Less talk, let us send you to the Netherworld!"

Ye Ming and the others gathered their demon essence.

They planned to attack together and directly destroy Xia Liu’s demon body.

So that King Ye could just watch the show.

Unexpectedly, when the four approached Xia Liu,

Xia Liu’s energy body suddenly soared to the extreme.

A long, rippling aura of a sixth-rank Demon Lord spread out.

Upon sensing Xia Liu’s sixth-rank Demon Lord aura, Ye Tiandi became even more composed.

Such a fool dares to contend with him.

He had overestimated him.

"Thousand Threads and Myriad Strands!"

Xia Liu wielded the Taiqing Demon-Slaying Sword, revealing peerless swordsmanship divine power.

At an unexpected moment for Ye Ming and the others.

A myriad sword aura suddenly attacked ferociously.

The sword qi appeared like a rainbow, like air, like silk,

attacking from all different angles.

Though the sword qi seemed ordinary,

each strand carried terrifying power.

Piercing the void, shredding the firmament, all were encompassed within!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!

Faced with the storm-like edge of sword might, though Ye Ming and others endured it,

their clothes were already in tatters.

If not for their deep energy bodies, they might have perished on the spot.

After one round of offense and defense.

Ye Ming and the others had scattered inner breath.

Thus losing half of their combat strength.

"Damn it! How could this happen!"

Ye Ming was deeply unwilling.

Yet the chaotic breath within him forced him to accept it.

Xia Liu turned out to be this powerful!

And he was only a sixth-rank Demon Lord?

He couldn’t comprehend how Xia Liu could erupt with such colossal strength.

"Interesting! The sword in your hand, I fear, is an ancient divine artifact?"

Ye Tiandi, watching from the sidelines, saw through some clues.

The reason Xia Liu was strong was mainly due to the divine sword he wielded.

And the unstoppable Ten Thousand Swords Divine Ability.

"Next, it’s your turn."

Xia Liu pointed his sword at Ye Tiandi, wanting to explore his depth.

Not to make a move was impossible.

Once he discovered his bottom line, he should close his eyes.

"Haha! You’re truly unafraid of death!"

Ye Tiandi believed Xia Liu was confident

because of his foundation in the eighth rank of the Demon Lord.

He could so dominantly suppress seventh-rank Demon Lord cultivators.

Naturally, he had the confidence to challenge the eighth rank of the Demon Lord.

Yet what he miscalculated was,

his eighth-rank Demon Lord power was just a facade!

"Release!"

Ye Tiandi’s seal technique changed, unlocking the secret technique within him, elevating his energy body rapidly to the peak of the ninth rank of the Demon Lord!

"Let’s see how you challenge my might!"

Ye Tiandi spread his arms wide, the aura as strong as heavenly might radiated far and wide.

This power granted him the confidence to vanquish heaven.

How could a measly sixth-rank Demon Lord cultivator be his opponent!

Even if given two more ranks,

he still wouldn’t be his match!

Hmm?

Just as Ye Tiandi basked in his own power,

Xia Liu’s aura suddenly rose,

finally stopping at the peak of the seventh rank of the Demon Lord!

Just an inch away from breaking through to the eighth rank of the Demon Lord!

"Seems like you have many secrets! Yet with just seventh-rank Demon Lord power, how can you match me?"

Ye Tiandi remained leisurely confident.

"If I take one step further, how will you block me without reaching the Demi-God Realm?"

Xia Liu smiled bitterly, "Even when the Demon King showcased the bloodline divine ability of demon offspring, he was still slain by me; unless you elevate your cultivation to the Demi-God Realm or the Realm of Demon God, then prepare to go to Hell!"

"Boasting!"

Though that’s what he said.

Yet the mention of the Demi-God Realm, the Realm of Demon God, and the Demon King’s death shocked Ye Tiandi somewhat from Xia Liu’s mouth.

Hence, he could not afford to be careless!

Otherwise, he might truly die!

"One move! If you survive, I’ll give you a chance to continue living."

"Damn it! Nobody has ever dared to speak to me like this! Not even the Demon Mother dares!"

Ye Tiandi was truly furious.

Xia Liu deserves death!

"Three friends, we must recover quickly, ensuring King Ye doesn’t suffer the slightest harm!"
