The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

A stream of blood flowed down from Ye Mo’s mouth. Looking up at Yun Feng, who was in the sky, he frowned slightly.

Seeing the situation, Yun Chuchu immediately rushed forward, hugging Ye Mo’s arm and saying worriedly, “Ye Mo, how are you? Are you okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Seeing what was happening before him, Yun Feng was infuriated as he shouted in anger, “Chuchu, how can you treat an outsider like this? I am your future husband!”

“Ye Mo is my good friend, you cannot harm him,” Yun Chuchu replied stubbornly, continuing to grab hold of Ye Mo’s limb.

“Chuchu, quickly move aside. This kid is extremely arrogant. I’m going to teach him a lesson and let him understand the consequence of having no regard for anyone.” As Yun Feng, who was in mid-air, spoke, the Firecloud Long Sword in his hand flashed once again.

“Enough! Stop it now!”

Elder Yun shouted, causing even the air to tremble. Yun Feng, who was floating in the air, dropped straight down to the ground as his wings instantaneously vanished.

Seeing that his own grandson was sent flying to the ground by Yun Tianxie, the elder frowned and asked in anger, “Yun Tianxie, what do you mean by this?”

“Yun Guxian, don’t think that I am not aware of your Yun Family Clan’s sinister plan. I passed down the Devil Firecloud Sword to Chuchu. You all are requesting for Chuchu to marry into your family over a meaningless marriage contract. Once she is married into your family, my Devil Firecloud Sword will officially belong to your clan,” Yun Tianxie said coldly as he gave Yun Guxian a death stare.

“Hmph, so what if this is true? I have the marriage contract that was personally written by Chuchu’s deceased parents. Are you trying to back out from the agreement?” Yun Guxian laughed mockingly as he took out the marriage contract.

Assessing the situation, Ye Mo understood what was happening: the Yun Family Clan wanted Chuchu to marry into their family in order to get her Devil Firecloud Sword.

“Yun Guxian, the marriage contract is dead, but humans are not. It is Chuchu’s own decision to marry who she desires. Your so-called marriage contract is meaningless,” Ye Mo said.

“Haha, meaningless? Yun Chuchu is ultimately a member of the Yun family. According to the Yun Family’s rules, marriage contracts are decided by one’s parents and cannot be taken back.” Yun Guxian put away the marriage contract and burst into laughter.

Ye Mo asked Yun Tianxie, “Elder Yun, how is my weapon?”

“The Primordial Golden Staff’s refining process has been completed!”

“What? The Primordial Golden Staff?”

Yun Feng, who had gotten up on his feet, was immediately stunned. He said, “Isn’t that the weapon of Saint Skyburn? Legend has it that it is a fire elemental spirit weapon, a high grade spirit weapon too. Our Tiandi League’s journey towards the Skyburn Mountain Range in search for this Saint Skyburn’s tomb ended up with nothing to show for. Don’t tell me you found it?”

“Indeed. The Primordial Golden Staff is in my possession. The Yun Family Clan wants a spirit weapon, don’t they? I will put this spirit weapon on the line!” Ye Mo’s mouth twitched as he announced with a pride-filled voice.

“What? What did you say?”

Some of the disciples in the Yun Family Clan completely did not understand what Ye Mo was saying – betting and putting a spirit weapon on the line? The number of spirit weapons left in the Tianwu Kingdom could be counted on two hands, but this league member before their eyes actually wanted to put one on the line.

Even Yun Feng and Yun Guxian were stunned by Ye Mo’s words – putting a spirit weapon on the line, what confidence!

“What’s wrong? You’re quiet all of a sudden. The reason why all of you want to marry Chuchu into your family is because of the Devil Firecloud Sword. To tell you the truth, Chuchu is a woman that I love. I will definitely not allow her to marry into your family. The Primordial Golden Staff is even better than the Devil Firecloud Sword. If you want to, I will put it on the line for that marriage contract of yours!”

Hearing Ye Mo say that she was the woman that he loved, Yun Chuchu’s eyes widened as she looked at Ye Mo in admiration. Her petite face then started to redden.

“Betting on a spirit weapon? How are you planning on doing this?” Yun Feng recovered from his shock and asked in surprise after coming back to his senses.

“There was no winner decided from the battle just now. Let’s fight again after seven days. If you win, I will give you my Primordial Golden Staff. If I win, you will give me that marriage contract. How about that?”

“Hey, you really think you get to be so arrogant in front of me just because he managed to destroy my Firecloud Sword Aura? I only used half of my strength just now.” Yun Feng slowly walked towards Ye Mo and unleashed an explosive amount of energy, his level of authority far stronger as compared to before.

“So what if you use all of your strength?” asked Ye Mo coldly. “Since you have so much confidence in yourself, after seven days, do you dare to challenge me to a fight? We’ll bet on this spirit weapon!”

“Ye Mo, do not rush into things. While you did not lose the previous clash, you are already heavily injured. Furthermore, he did not even use all of his strength. Even after seven days, there is no way you’ll be able to defeat him,” said Yun Tianxie.

“Ye Mo, do not make the bet with him. You risked your life getting that Primordial Golden Staff. Anyway, I do not agree to this. They can forget about forcing me to marry as well,” Yun Chuchu also spoke up immediately.

“Alright, I shall put that marriage contract on the line. In seven days, I will challenge you as an elite member of the Tiandi League. I hope you don’t regret this.”

A murderous look appeared on Yun Feng’s face and he said, “When the time comes, I will end your life. Hope you won’t back out from it. Grandpa, let’s go!”

With a violent swing of his robe sleeve, all the Yun Family Clan members followed him back, leaving the boxes at the Firecloud Pavilion.

Yun Chuchu evidently heaved a sigh of relief seeing the Yun family leave. However, as she thought about the battle in seven days’ time, a worried look appeared on her face again.

“Elder Yun, Chuchu, what is all of this? How are you two related to the Yun Family Clan?” asked Ye Mo.

“That Yun Guxian is the head of the Yun Family Clan. I am his brother. We always shared different views. He was from the Emperor Clan, I was from the Martial Clan, which led to me leaving the Yun Family. Chuchu is the daughter of a disciple of mine. That disciple was sabotaged by the Emperor’s men the moment Chuchu was born. Hence, Chuchu has been under my care since birth, taking after my family name as well.”

The Emperor Clan and the Martial Clan were two hidden factions in the Tianwu Kingdom. The former protected the Emperor, the latter wanted to overthrow him.

“So, Chuchu is an orphan, just like me!” Hearing that, Ye Mo’s heart instantly felt a connection with Yun Chuchu and could not help but hold her hands tightly. “Elder Yun, Chuchu, don’t worry. I’ve fought with actual Energy Shaping Seventh Realm fighters before and understand how strong they can be, hence I knew that Yun Feng did not actually use all of his strength. However, I still remain confident that I will defeat him in seven days. Do not worry!” Ye Mo exclaimed with a face of confidence.

“Ye Mo, I believe in you!” Being held tightly by Ye Mo, Chuchu could feel the power surging through from Ye Mo’s hands and could not help but encourage Ye Mo and cheer him on.

Ye Mo took out the Spirit Plucking Tool from his Dimensional Bracelet and handed it to Yun Tianxie, saying, “Elder Yun, this is the Spirit Plucking Tool.”

“Alright, I shall begin to combine the weapon spirits after your fight with Yun Feng and create a weapon even greater than a high-grade spirit weapon!”
