The man had a clean and fair face, a sharp chin, and pitch black pupils. His eyebrows were thick, his nose stood tall, and his lips seemed perfectly shaped. His very person was filled with grandeur.
This was a man that could send a maiden into a trance with a single glance.
The Vicious Tiger Triad leader asked, “Kid! Who are you? Don’t dream of leaving after killing so many of my subordinates!”
The newcomer smiled with contempt as he said, “Show me your martial technique. It better be a martial technique with a will. Otherwise, this fight will be boring. If you are able to show me a couple of interesting skills, I might let you keep your life.”
These words caused the woman in white to throw the Vicious Tiger Triad leader a look of pity. She was the only one who knew that the person standing before her was the ruler of Tianwu Kingdom, her brother, Li Tianqiong.
“Hmph. You are but an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior. I have been in Energy Shaping Ninth Realm for over 20 years. Not many people under True Energy Realm can be a match for me. You want to kill me? Can you even spell the word kill?” Then, the Vicious Tiger Triad leader dashed towards the man. He moved like a cheetah and with a few flickers, he traveled a distance of several hundred steps in the span of several breaths.
When the triad leader attacked, the princess’s eyes flickered as she started planning her escape while the others were busy fighting.
“Stay!” One single word stopped the princess. Next, a huge energy tiger pounced on the man with its mouth opened wide. A bloody smell emanated from its mouth.
The attack seemed powerful, yet the man was completely indifferent. This attack contained the Will of Vicious Tiger in it and was sufficient for him to learn something new.
“Emperor’s Seal!” The man activated the Yuanli within him and sent his palm out, creating numerous golden energy palms. The palms seemed mighty and undefeated. With five casual palms, a storm of golden energy swept out and collided with the tiger. The collision filled the air with dust and sand.
Just like that, the huge tiger was defeated with a few slaps. Astonishment covered Ye Mo’s face as he watched the scene unfold. The attack from the triad leader seemed simple but in truth, it was incredibly violent. It had the Will of Vicious Tiger in it, and the triad leader himself had a thick Yuanli. That attack was not something a normal Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior could block.
But that man had easily defeated the triad leader with several slaps. Although Ye Mo was also capable of defeating that triad leader, he would not be able to do it that easily. The man slowly walked towards the triad leader. With each step he took, his presence grew, giving off a suffocating feeling.
“Kid, are you a member of the Imperial Guards?” The triad leader started gathering his Yuanli again as he spoke, “This person is young yet is already much more powerful than me even though he is only at Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. His attack looked light, yet it was filled with power.”
The triad leader was about to condense his Yuanli to unleash his skill again. However, the man sent several streams of sharp sword qi that streaked through the air and blocked all his escape routes.
“Tiger’s Roar!” The triad leader yelled, sending sound waves out of his mouth that gathered to form numerous defensive barriers. The sound waves did not travel far. Instead, they gathered around him to defend against the sword qi that all collapsed when clashing on the barriers.
“Interesting. I wonder how many of my attacks you can block.” Slight astonishment surfaced on the man’s face. Then, he pointed his finger at the triad leader and sent numerous golden energy swords flying towards the barriers, creating numerous ripples on them.
In a flash, the barriers shattered, while blood started dripping from the triad leader’s mouth.
“I’ve already lost my patience. Die.” The man waved his hand and a huge golden energy sword formed in the air. Then, he sent the sword slicing down, cutting the triad leader into two.
No blood was left on the energy sword.
“This person is so powerful. Looking at him is making me thirst for battle.” An intense desire for battle was ignited in Ye Mo’s heart when he saw what happened. He had recently advanced into the Energy Shaping Seventh Realm and had not fought in any huge battles yet. The man before him was the perfect target for him.
“Brother Ye Mo, this is the first time I have seen a warrior this strong. It’s not his strength that is strong. Rather, it’s his techniques.” Even Ling’er was lamenting the strength of that man. It was a surprise that they would stumble upon such a genius here. Could this person be one of the five geniuses of Heaven’s Wall City?
“Not even Cao Zheng is comparable to him. When this person enters the True Energy Realm, he’ll be able to easily beat Cao Zheng.”
After the man was done killing the triad leader, he slowly walked towards the princess. With slight anger on his face, he spoke, “Are you coming out without permission with me not around? If I hadn’t arrived in time, do you know what would happen to you?”
The princess hugged the man and laughed playfully. “This is Tianwu Kingdom. The entire Tianwu Kingdom is yours. What should I be afraid of?”
“So where do you plan to go this time?” The man could never stay angry at the princess.
“I heard that there is a mirage at the southern sea. It is rumored that so long as one make a wish when the mirage appears, the wish will come true. I want to make a wish there so that brother can take the imperial concubine as his main wife, to be blessed by the spirit majestic, to keep the kingdom strong forever,” said the princess as she crossed her hands in front of her chest, as if she was praying.
The man smiled helplessly and said, “Who told you that? The mirage is merely a natural phenomenon. Of course, each time it appears, there are some people who would have had fortuitous encounters... so you are going treasure hunting?” The man immediately understood what the princess had in mind.
“No, I’m not.”
“Do you know how dangerous that is? There are so many treasures in the palace and you never cared much for them. Even if you did find a treasure from your treasure hunting, the treasure would not be as valuable as what we have at the palace,” the man rebuked.
“Only a treasure I find myself will mean something. Brother, allow me go this one time. The warriors there aren’t that strong anyway. I have many trump cards on me. Don’t worry. I am going crazy from boredom staying in the palace all the time.” The princess starting to act like a spoiled child.
“Fine. You can take this chance to toughen up. I will go with you. There are a few months before the league war. We can help you enter the True Energy Realm so you can participate in the league war.”
“Yes!” The princess jumped in excitement.
“Ling’er, can you hear what they are saying?” Ye Mo asked when he saw that the two were talking without stop.
“No, they are too far. The only thing I hear is something about mirage.” Ling’er shook her head.
“Mirage?” Ye Mo raised his brows and said, “Master once told me that each time the mirage appears, a place with bountiful Yuanli will also appear. If anyone can locate that place, one will have a prosperous encounter. Since I have no business at the Qingyun League for now, I might as well go take a look at this mirage and see if I can get any treasures.”
