Bi Dao's eyes shone with a different light. He did not seem to hear venerable Poisonsword's exasperated words at all.
The voice stared expressionlessly at the spatial door in the sky. That one eye, which could be considered normal, revealed a somewhat grave expression.
The boulder that the sword was stuck in suddenly exploded. An extremely dense energy wrapped around the sword, which was only three fingers wide. After shattering the boulder, it flew into Bi Dao's hand as if it had a mind of its own.
The earth-shattering aura wreaked havoc in the surroundings. Finally, a white-robed old man with a face covered in wrinkles slowly walked out of the Spatial Gate. Immediately, an incomparably domineering aura radiated from his body, deeply intimidating everyone in Hellfire City. It was as if a peerless king had descended.
The old man looked down from above. His face was cold and arrogant. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at Bi Dao in the ruins. He growled, "Who are you? Why did you kill my disciple?"
Bi Dao showed no fear. He stared at the old man and asked emotionlessly, "You're You Zixing's master, the Imperial Protector of the Karl Empire, Mo Jian?"
"That's right, I'm Old Man," Mo Jian coldly replied.
Bi Dao's eyes were icy-cold as he said, "The land beneath my feet belongs to my Bi family. No one can take it away from me. I'll kill anyone who tries."
Mo Jian slightly frowned when he heard that. He glanced at Bi Dao in disbelief and growled, "You're a member of the Bi family?" The Bi family was a powerful clan that possessed a Saint Ruler in the past, so Mo Jian had heard of them before. However, what he did not understand was when such an expert had appeared in the Bi family.
"Yes," Bi Dao's expression did not change at all.
Mo Jian shivered, "Since you're a member of the Bi family, you're a member of my Karl Empire. Technically speaking, you're not an outsider. However, you need to give Old Man an explanation for killing my disciple, You Zixing."
"If you want an explanation, I'll give you one." Bi Dao said with a deep voice. A tremendous battle intent surged from his body, surging into the sky and causing the clouds to churn. The Heaven-quaking Sword in his hand erupted with a shocking sword Qi as well.
"Bi Dao, you brat, my strength is nowhere near my peak right now. I can't afford to waste it like this. Don't resist and let me take control of your body. We need to end this battle quickly, or once I run out of energy, we'll both die," venerable Poisonsword's voice rang out in Bi Dao's head.
Bi Dao said nothing. He slowly lowered his head. At that moment, no one noticed that the light in Bi Dao's left eye was rapidly fading away, becoming hollow in the blink of an eye. However, a strange light suddenly appeared in his left eye. It flickered and was filled with an evil presence.
Right now, both of Bi Dao's eyes had become evil, as if two will-o '-the-wisps were leaping about in them.
Suddenly, Bi Dao's body shot up from the ground, shooting into the sky like a rocket. The Heaven-quaking Sword in his hand also erupted with a bright green light. This was an extremely potent poison.
Not only was venerable Poisonsword powerful, but he was also an expert in poison as well.
Not only that, he was an expert skilled in using poison. The poison he controlled was no weaker than Nubis's poison.
The Imperial Protector of the Karl Empire, Mo Jian, could not help but frown when he saw how resolute Bi Dao was. He actually wanted to fight as hard as he could. Although You Zixing was his disciple, there was no master-disciple relationship between them. Mo Jian was indeed extremely furious when he heard that You Zixing had been killed, but that was mostly because of his pride. After all, his disciple had been killed in the territory of the Karl Empire. It was basically a provocation and an insult to him.
Back then, Mo Jian believed that the person who had killed You Zixing was a Saint Ruler, which was why he had hurried over furiously. However, when he arrived in Hellfire City, he discovered that the person who had killed You Zixing was actually a Holy Emperor. His thoughts of avenging his disciple immediately dissipated by a lot. He would not offend a Holy Emperor for no good reason for the sake of someone he had no feelings for as a disciple, especially when the Holy Emperor was from the Karl Empire and had destroyed the Bloodcloud clan for revenge. As a result, Mo Jian decided not to pursue this matter any further.
He had only asked Bi Dao for an explanation so that he could find a way out of this embarrassing situation. However, he had never thought that not only would Bi Dao refuse to cooperate, he would even force him into a corner.
"Heaven-quaking Sword, Cloudpiercer!" Without giving Mo Jian any time to prepare, Bi Dao struck out first. With a bellow, the Heaven-quaking Sword in his hand immediately surged with poison. Dense green light completely enveloped the sword before stabbing out with a tremendous amount of energy.
With a stab, the Heaven-quaking Sword instantly disappeared into the void. However, in the next moment, it strangely appeared in front of Imperial Protector Mo Jian. The powerful poison and terrifying energy perfectly merged into one, mercilessly stabbing towards Imperial Protector Mo Jian.
Mo Jian immediately became stern. He could clearly sense just how powerful the attack was, which left him extremely shocked. Only at that moment did he suddenly realize that while Bi Dao's presence was fluctuating, his strength was no weaker than his own. He could even sense the mysteries of the world that far exceeded the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor from the attack, which left him even more shocked.
Without any hesitation, Mo Jian drew his Saint Weapon as quickly as he could. His weapon was a huge, single-handed sword that was as wide as a palm. As soon as it appeared, the vast amount of energy within him surged into it. He stabbed out with all his strength, colliding with the Heaven-quaking Sword.
Boom!
With a deafening boom, the two terrifying energies collided violently in the air. Space was instantly torn apart, forming a black hole with a diameter of over 30 meters. The entire sky shook violently.
After the attack, the Heaven-quaking Sword turned around and flew back into Bi Dao's hand. On the other hand, Mo Jian's body violently trembled as his expression immediately became rather ugly. Although he was not injured from blocking Bi Dao's attack, he was at a disadvantage. At the same time, a powerful poison gas had entered his body. He had never seen this poison gas before, but it was extremely powerful, forcing him to suppress it with fifty percent of his strength.
Bi Dao stood in the air emotionlessly with the Heaven-quaking Sword in hand.
The light in his eyes constantly pulsed.
He coldly said, "I wonder if this is enough. If it's not, I'll give you an even more satisfying explanation."
Mo Jian stared at Bi Dao in shock. He stared into Bi Dao's eyes. His instincts told him that there was something strange about the person before him, but he was unable to pinpoint the exact reason.
Mo Jian took a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down. After a moment of silence, he had no choice but to pull a long face and say, "Sir, you are also from the Karl Empire. My Karl Empire has once again gained such a strong person. This is truly a cause for celebration. As for that useless disciple of mine, he dared to occupy your family's territory. He was simply asking for trouble and deserved to die." Mo Jian had already admitted defeat. From the previous exchange of blows, he already knew that he was definitely not the opponent of the person in front of him. Offending such a strong enemy for a person who did not have the slightest bit of relationship as master and disciple was really not a wise choice.
Mo Jian paused slightly before continuing to speak to Bi Dao, "Sir, your strength is extraordinary and you're also a member of the Karl Empire. If you're willing, you can come to the imperial palace at any time to take up the position of Imperial Protector." With that, Mo Jian no longer stayed. He turned around and flew off into the distance.
"Hold on. Just who was bold enough to wipe out the Bi family all those years ago?" Bi Dao coldly asked.
Mo Jian paused. He glanced back at the huge stone pillar in the ruins and said, "I've been cultivating in the palace all year round and haven't interfered with the affairs of the world for several hundred years. If you want to find your enemy, you can go to the palace and find the king. I think he'll be very willing to help you."
Mo Jian hurriedly left through the Space Gate while Bi Dao descended from the sky, returning to the ruins. The flickering light in his eyes slowly calmed down. In the end, his gaze sharpened.
"Brat, you better be more careful when you do things in the future. Just that alone took up twenty percent of my strength. If it weren't for the fact that I had the foresight to deter that person with my absolute strength, I probably would still be tangled up with that person. If the battle had continued for a long time, I would have lost without a doubt, "venerable Poisonsword's exasperated voice rang out in Bi Dao's head.
Bi Dao said nothing. Instead, he focused on his dantian. A thumb-sized pearl silently hovered there. The pearl was completely condensed from energy, so the energy hidden within was extremely terrifying.
The pearl contained venerable Poisonsword's power. It had been sealed in there using a special method, so the venerable could use it as he wished while Bi Dao could use a small portion of it. However, once the energy within the pearl was depleted, it would be very difficult to replenish. Compared to before, the energy sealed within was indeed twenty percent less.
Bi Dao did not go to the imperial palace of the Karl Empire. Instead, he waited silently in the ruins. His instincts told him that those people would definitely come.
In the blink of an eye, night had fallen. The entire sky was shrouded in darkness. In an extremely remote place on the Tian Yuan Continent, a huge, pitch-black palace stood silently in a mountain range. It gave off a cold presence, as if the palace was the residence of a demon. It was hair-raising.
"Yama, a descendant of the Bi family has appeared in Hellfire City of the Karl Empire. He has carved the words' return with the beast fur 'on a stone pillar. Please make your decision," a hazy voice rang out from the dark palace. It was filled with an evil presence.
"What? A person of the Bi family has returned to Hellfire City with the beast fur? Is that true?" A hoarse voice rang out from the pitch-black palace. It sounded like the howl of a ghost.
"It's absolutely true. However, the person of the Bi family seems to be very powerful. He fought against an Imperial Protector of the Karl Empire in Hellfire City and remained undefeated."
