Purple Jade Island's second island master, Hu Guang, seemed to have lost his mind. He was forced to his knees by an outsider cultivator, but he didn't resist at all.
Lionheart, who was hurrying back, saw this from afar. His eyes immediately turned red, and he gnashed his teeth. "You dare!"
He couldn't afford to die again!
Ignoring the hundreds of constellations that had been killed, in the Yue Yao realm, first Junior Brother Tiger, then Red Elephant, then Ape Che, Junior Brother Chai, Junior Brother Lang, and now Bao Youyou … In less than half a month, six Yue Yao had died. If Hu Guang died as well, that would be seven. When that happened, Zi Xuan would be the only one left on the Yue Yao realm!
No matter what, he couldn't allow Hu Guang to be killed, especially right under his nose.
As he roared, his body glowed with red light, and his Qi and blood surged. He'd clearly activated a secret technique to increase his speed. He wanted to save Hu Guang before Lu Ye could.
However, this seemingly short distance was actually an uncrossable heavenly tribulation …
On the other side, Hu Guang, who was kneeling in front of Lu Ye, suddenly regained a sliver of clarity when the Coiling Mountain Saber's icy blade touched him. But that was all.
His Spirit Sea was in turmoil, and his soul was in tatters. Even if his body wasn't damaged, he was powerless to fight. He could vaguely sense that his death was near, and he couldn't help but recall the familiar faces of the dead.
How could this be?
When had this happened?
As he struggled to think, he suddenly remembered that all of this had started after that banquet.
Their island had been targeting Three World Island for a year. When Lu Ye appeared and lured him over, First Island Master Lionheart swallowed a cultivator from Three World Island named Wei Po right in front of him.
Before taking action, Zi Xuan knew that Three World Island wouldn't yield. Once conflict erupted, they would definitely fight back.
But no one had expected their counterattack to come so quickly, so fiercely, and so terrifyingly fast!
After Wei Po was swallowed alive, Lu Ye immediately launched an attack and killed Junior Brother Tiger!
After Junior Brother Tiger was killed, Junior Brother Red Elephant was ambushed and killed on the island.
In the late Yue Yao period, they'd led four thousand soldiers to attack Three World Island, but Ape Che had died along the way, and several hundred constellations had been killed as well. They'd had no choice but to retreat.
Today, even Junior Sister Bao had died, and he probably wouldn't be able to survive either.
All of this was done by a single person! It could be said that he single-handedly turned Purple Jade Island upside down. What kind of terrifying ability was that?
Frightening and laughable. Despite being a top-notch spiritual island, it had been utterly defeated by a single person!
Hu Guang suddenly felt regret. He shouldn't have provoked the Three World Island. If he hadn't, then there wouldn't have been so many tragedies, and so many Purple Jade Demon Cultivators wouldn't have died.
However, the most useless thing in this world was regret. Before Zi Xuan made her move, she had never placed the Three World Island in her eyes. Whether it was her dead Junior Brother Hu, Junior Sister Bao, or Red Elephant and the others, all of them felt that dealing with the Three World Island was a piece of cake.
He was about to die, and he could only rely on First Island Master Lionheart to avenge them. He didn't know. He wasn't even sure if the invincible Lionheart was a match for Lu Ye.
His heart was filled with regret, but he was powerless to achieve it.
"A debt of blood!" A cold shout came from behind him. As his transcendence energy was activated, it spread all around. "Blood for blood!"
A sudden pain came from his neck. Hu Guang realized that he was suddenly lifted up. His vision suddenly increased, but strangely, he couldn't feel the existence of his own body.
He blinked and suddenly realized that he had been beheaded.
Yes, a debt of blood must be paid in blood. This was what the Purple Jade Island's Demon Cultivators had shouted at the banquet that day. However, to the Purple Jade Island's Demon Cultivators, this was just a pretense to deal with the Three World Island.
However, they really did it!
Wei Po's death was exchanged for the lives of seven Yue Yao and hundreds of Star Mansions.
And this wasn't the end!
Lionheart, who was rushing towards Zi Xuan, watched as the kneeling Hu Guang was beheaded by Lu Ye. Blood gushed out from the headless neck like a fountain, and the anxiety and worry in his heart turned into boundless anger at this moment. The corners of his eyes burst open, and blood flowed down his cheeks, making him look terrifying. Suddenly, he let out a roar, and a sound wave visible to the naked eye converged into a beam and attacked Lu Ye from nearly a thousand li away.
"I'll give it to you!" Lu Ye kicked out, sending Hu Guang's head flying towards Lionheart.
He turned around and rushed towards the interior of Purple Jade Island. Along the way, he killed a group of Demon Cultivators who were rushing towards him and fearlessly wanted to save Hu Guang. In a flash, he rushed into a large hall and disappeared without a trace.
Not long after the head flew out, it exploded into dust under Lionheart's sound wave attack. This made Lionheart even more furious!
The countless cultivators watching from afar were silent. They were shocked by the terrifying and shocking scene that had just happened.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have thought that a mid-Yue Yao cultivator could kill two late-Yue Yao cultivators in such a short time!
Because they were too far away, they could clearly see Bao Youyou's death. It was because Bao Youyou's strength was insufficient in a real battle.
However, they couldn't understand Hu Guang's death. After Bao Youyou's death, Hu Guang was captured alive by Lu Ye before he could do anything. He was forced to kneel on the ground and beheaded in front of Lionheart.
This tragic scene made the hearts of all the cultivators who saw it tremble.
"Haa!" An old man suddenly sighed. "Killing people is just a matter of time. This Three World Island's Lu Ye … is a bit too much."
From the perspective of an outsider, Lu Ye's method of killing Hu Guang was clearly a humiliation. Many cultivators walked on the edge of life and death all year round. They had experienced countless battles in their lives, and their hearts were tough and tenacious. They didn't fear death, but if they had to die, who wouldn't want to die a quick death?
With so many people watching, Hu Guang was humiliated like this before he died, and his head was even kicked like a ball. It was very uncomfortable.
"Too much?" A cold snort sounded. "Old thing, what nonsense are you spouting?!"
The old man who spoke was a Yue Yao. When he heard this, he was enraged. He turned to look in the direction of the voice, and saw a large man with distinct features. The corners of his eyes twitched. "So it's Fellow Daoist Bi Dang!"
The Great Island Master of the Five Color Island. In terms of status, he was equal to Lionheart. Although he hadn't been in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea for many years, who didn't know him?
Although the old man came from a powerful force, it was still much weaker than the Five Color Domain. Moreover, Bi Dang's cultivation was stronger than his. It was normal for Bi Dang to reprimand him when he saw that he was displeased. The old man immediately decided to swallow his anger.
However, Bi Dang didn't let him off easily. He looked at him coldly and said, "Don't try to persuade others to do good without experiencing their suffering. Old thing, how much do you know about the grudge between Zi Xuan and the Three World Island? How dare you criticize me here?! "
Being reprimanded in such a manner, the old man's face instantly turned green and red. Even a clay figurine would get angry, let alone a Yue Yao like him. He immediately said, "This old man really doesn't know about the grudge between the two great Spiritual Islands. If Fellow Daoist knows, why don't you tell me?"
Bi Dang snorted coldly and said, "Then I'll tell you. A few days ago, Zi Xuan suddenly invited guests from all over. Coincidentally, my name was on the guest list. I had nothing to do, so I went to take a look. Coincidentally, I ran into the source of the grudge between Zi Xuan and the Three World Island."
He immediately recounted what happened that day. When they heard that the Three World Island's Yue Yao cultivator, Wei Po, had killed a few Purple Jade Constellations for no reason when he passed by Purple Jade Island, everyone revealed subtle expressions.
Purple Jade Island was famous. Any cultivator who had spent some time on the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea would have heard of it. Who would be so blind as to kill a cultivator from such a powerful Spiritual Island, especially one so close to Zi Xuan …
Unless that Three World Island cultivator called Wei Po had lost his mind. Therefore, when they heard this, everyone knew that Zi Xuan was definitely trying to frame him.
When they heard that Zi Xuan had offered one billion Spirit Jades, Lu Ye agreed without hesitation to save Wei Po's life. He quickly gathered one billion Spirit Jades. In the end, that Hu Guang went back on his word after he left the island.
Going back on one's word and going back on one's word was not the style of a top-tier Spiritual Island.
Then, when Lionheart devoured Wei Po, everyone revealed looks of disgust.
Many people knew that the Demon Clan had a tradition of blood sacrifice. However, using a living Yue Yao cultivator as a sacrifice still made them frown. Although many cultivators came from different clans, if the Demon Clan could capture a human as a sacrifice today, they could capture their clansmen as sacrifices in the future.
Bi Dang's eloquence was not very good, so his description was not very vivid. However, through his narration, the events of that day's banquet were clearly displayed before the eyes of many cultivators.
Only then did the spectating cultivators understand the origin of the feud between the two Spiritual Islands. Moreover, from the sound of it, it was clear that Zi Xuan was targeting Three World Island.
As for the reason … Three World Island was flourishing with each passing day. Many people were envious of it. It was not strange that Zi Xuan would target them.
"Zi Xuan went back on her word and embezzled one billion Spirit Jades from Three World Island. Lionheart also devoured a cultivator from Three World Island. Lu Ye's actions today are merely retaliation! Does this … still count? "Bi Dang looked at the old man from before.
The old man remained silent. If he were in Lu Ye's shoes, if he had the same ability as Lu Ye and encountered the same situation, he wouldn't have done any worse than Lu Ye. Cultivators were mostly quick to settle grudges. Who would hold back when they were wronged?
"This old man has misspoken!" The old man was also a carefree person. Although he could see that Bi Dang had the intention of speaking up for Lu Ye, he knew that the Great Island Master of Five Color Island seemed to have a personal relationship with Lu Ye. When Three World Island's development was in trouble, Five Color Island was the first to stand up and support it. Opening a branch of the Five Color Chamber of Commerce on Three World Island was the best evidence.
But it had to be said that Bi 'an was right about one thing. Don't try to persuade others to do good without experiencing their pain. The grudges between cultivators were difficult for outsiders to see clearly unless they were involved. Perhaps the one who was being bullied was the one who started the trouble, just like the current Purple Jade Island.
