Whoosh …
His face was pale! Ninth Young Master felt like an invisible hand was gripping his throat, making it hard for him to breathe.
Everything that had happened ten years ago was still vivid in his mind.
On that day, Ninth Young Master's strength reached a peak. That day, the Ninth Young Master was full of confidence. He felt that he was not much inferior to the Third Young Master. How excited was Ninth Young Master about this?
The Third Young Master had always been a role model for the younger generation in the Alliance of Nine Cities! He was the target of all the younger generation.
Could he catch up to the Third Young Master?
To Ninth Young Master, this was something to be proud of. The Third Young Master was no longer an existence he could only look up to. What he could see was no longer just the back of the Third Young Master.
However, on that day, Ninth Young Master suffered a crushing defeat.
In an instant, he fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.
Merely three moves!
That's right, the Third Young Master had only used three moves that day to completely suppress the Ninth Young Master.
At that moment, Ninth Young Master realized that what he saw was just the tip of the iceberg.
Just how strong was the Third Young Master?
He still didn't know.
He thought that he had caught up, but in the end, it seemed that the distance was still boundlessly far.
He had even almost lost his life.
If not for that old man's appearance, how could Ninth Young Master have survived until today?
Ninth Young Master had never forgotten Third Young Master's contemptuous gaze at that time.
It was a condescending look, as if he was looking at an ant.
Ninth Young Master had not forgotten the words of the three dukes back then.
"Ten years. I'll only give you ten years. Ten years later, I will retrieve the remnant soul in your body! "
These were the words left behind by the Third Young Master.
During a great fortuitous encounter, Ninth Young Master obtained a Divine Sovereign's remnant soul. Moreover, it was the remnant soul of a True God's inheritor.
The fusion of that remnant soul allowed Ninth Young Master to gain a significant improvement. He had even broken through an unimaginable limit.
The Third Young Master had also taken a fancy to that remnant soul.
"Ten years … it has been ten years now!"
As sweat dripped down, Ninth Young Master suddenly recalled that ten years had passed without him realizing it.
Then, this time, when they meet the Third Young Master …
Was what he said ten years ago going to come true?
Ninth Young Master felt his entire body turn cold.
His body seemed to have frozen at this moment.
He wanted to turn around and dodge, but he couldn't move an inch.
Boom …
Most importantly, when Ninth Young Master forcibly averted his gaze, hoping to avoid Third Young Master's gaze, he saw a scene that made him feel like his head was about to explode.
The Third Young Master, who had been walking forward, suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked in the direction of the Ninth Young Master.
He had been discovered.
Although Third Young Master's eyes appeared calm, devoid of any murderous intent, they made Ninth Young Master feel even more pain than if he had fallen into hell.
This was especially so when Third Young Master showed an indistinct smile. It made Ninth Young Master feel like his heart had stopped beating.
Thud thud thud …
The sound of footsteps rang out, each one seeming to step on Ninth Young Master's heart.
With every step, the blood in Ninth Young Master's body surged.
Third Young Master was currently approaching Ninth Young Master.
When Third Young Master finally arrived before Ninth Young Master, Ninth Young Master was already pale, and his figure trembled faintly.
At this moment, Ninth Young Master no longer had his usual might. Where was his usual demeanor?
"We meet again!"
While Ninth Young Master nearly suffocated, Third Young Master, who had already arrived before Ninth Young Master, smiled.
His voice was very soft, and his tone was very calm.
However, when Ninth Young Master heard it, it was like a clap of thunder.
Instantly, Ninth Young Master nearly jumped up. "I … I did not know that you would appear here!"
Ninth Young Master showed an unsightly expression.
"You did not know? Haha … "
Upon hearing Ninth Young Master's words, Third Young Master revealed a playful smile. "You do not know my relationship with the Dragon Slaying Pavilion?!"
"I …"
Third Young Master gaped and gulped. "I thought you were still in closed-door cultivation!"
"Haha …"
Third Young Master smiled in disdain.
"You seem to be afraid?"
Xiao Chen looked at Ninth Young Master with interest. Third Young Master appeared calm.
At this moment, Third Young Master's bearing as an expert was on full display.
Who could have imagined that Ninth Young Master would be like a mouse before him?
Third Young Master did not need any corporeal aura to display his might.
"It looks like you did not forget what you said ten years ago?!"
Third Young Master continued as he looked deeply at Ninth Young Master.
"Boom …"
His words were startling.
This made Ninth Young Master turn ashen again.
"I do not wish to be enemies with you. We are all … people of the Nine Cities Alliance! "
Ninth Young Master's tone was unprecedentedly weak.
How many years has it been?
How many years has it been since this happened?
Ninth Young Master's tone was submissive, even pleading and trembling.
Sympathy? Am I trying to gain sympathy at this moment?
In the original Ninth Young Master's eyes, sympathy belonged to the weak. He had always looked down on the weak.
However, what about now?
The current me …
Ninth Young Master's heart was in turmoil.
However, he needed to control himself, to endure.
Otherwise, death would not be far from him.
After not seeing Third Young Master for a few years, Ninth Young Master increasingly could not figure out what level Third Young Master had reached.
At first glance, Third Young Master looked like an ordinary person, not giving off any aura.
However, if anyone really treated Third Young Master as an ordinary person, that would be a huge joke. Only a true fool would do so. Perhaps they would not even know how they died.
Naturally, Ninth Young Master did not dare to do so.
He wanted to compromise.
Only Ninth Young Master knew how fearful he was of Third Young Master.
This was because Ninth Young Master understood that they were not on the same level.
Furthermore, Third Young Master was already so strong that even an expert like Ninth Young Master could not muster any will to resist.
This was absolute suppression.
Other than compromising, what else could they do?
"Haha … people from the Alliance of the Nine Cities? You don't want to be my enemy? "
Upon hearing Ninth Young Master's words, Third Young Master narrowed his eyes.
"I need that remnant soul in your body."
The Third Young Master said seriously.
"I …"
Ninth Young Master's face contorted, but he still suppressed his rage.
At the same time, Ninth Young Master's entire body tensed up.
Third Young Master's words extinguished Ninth Young Master's final hope.
That remnant soul? That remnant soul was now Ninth Young Master's foundation and had long since merged with his soul.
If Ninth Young Master wanted to extract that remnant soul, he would definitely die.
How could he accept this?
Ninth Young Master's heart instantly sank to rock bottom.
Ninth Young Master's eyes appeared somewhat bloodshot. He felt rage burning in his heart. It was as if it could explode at any moment.
He needed to be even more wary of the Third Young Master.
If the Third Young Master were to make a move now, how would he deal with it?
Ninth Young Master's eyes flickered.
"What? Couldn't do it? Haha … don't worry. I won't kill you now. Don't forget, this is under the Dragon Slaying Pavilion. No one can behave atrociously here, not even me. So, you are very safe now. However, what about after you leave this place? Perhaps it will be hard to say! "
Third Young Master said with a smile that did not seem like a smile when he sensed Ninth Young Master's change.
"You …"
Upon hearing Third Young Master's words, Ninth Young Master's complexion paled further. "Is there no room for redemption?"
Even at this moment, Ninth Young Master still held on to a final trace of hope.
This was because Third Young Master put too much pressure on Ninth Young Master.
This pressure was already sufficient to break Ninth Young Master's spirit.
"Redemption? Perhaps there is! Don't you want to kill Wang Chen? If you kill Wang Chen, I can give you another three years. "
Third Young Master's eyes flickered as he said this.
Three years?
This time might seem short, but it was sufficient to do many things, right? But it was enough to do a lot of things, wasn't it?
Perhaps Ninth Young Master could do many things in three years.
Perhaps Ninth Young Master could do many things in three years. It was just like the ten-year agreement. Perhaps back then, Ninth Young Master still held on to hope that he could rise up and overtake others.
In reality, Ninth Young Master had risen up. However, overtake others? He had no hope at all.
It was the same now.
However, Third Young Master had reason to believe that Ninth Young Master could not reject his request.
If Ninth Young Master agreed to his condition? Ninth Young Master still had three years.
If Ninth Young Master did not agree?
Not to mention three years, he would not even have thirty days.
Right now, only death awaited Ninth Young Master.
"Wang Chen? What do you want me to do?! "
Indeed, Ninth Young Master asked sullenly, his expression changing after hearing Third Young Master's words.
"Kill Wang Chen. I need his remnant soul. He seems to be more valuable than you, right? "
Third Young Master showed a smile that did not seem like a smile.
"I will kill him!"
Ninth Young Master said sullenly.
He felt very reluctant.
However, he could only accept it.
This was a world where the strong reigned supreme.
Even someone like Ninth Young Master did not have the right to decide his own fate.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Ninth Young Master was an outstanding talent, an expert. However, this depended on who it was.
Before Third Young Master? What was Ninth Young Master? He was the weakling.
His life and death depended on Ninth Young Master.
Right now, he could only clench his teeth and agree.
Survive!
There was only hope as long as he was alive.
Perhaps three years was sufficient for Ninth Young Master to do some things.
This was Ninth Young Master's current mood.
The situation was stronger than the person.
"Hahaha … very good! I hope you won't disappoint me. Remember what the value of your existence is. I don't need worthless things! "
After obtaining a satisfactory answer, Third Young Master smiled and nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly walked forward.
Then, he brushed past Ninth Young Master, not sparing him another glance.
At Third Young Master's height, perhaps Ninth Young Master was really just a speck of dust, just an ant.
"Bastard …"
Ninth Young Master seemed to catch his breath only after Third Young Master was far away. He took a deep breath and cursed angrily with an uncertain expression.
Dissatisfaction. Boundless dissatisfaction. Boundless humiliation filled Ninth Young Master's heart.
This feeling of having someone choking him was not good.
"Why? Why didn't you enter the supreme realm, you damned bastard? Ahhh …"
Ninth Young Master could not help roaring.
The supreme realm …
That was the place where the true experts stayed.
Why did Third Young Master not go? What did he want to do by staying here?
Ninth Young Master showed an extremely ferocious expression.
