“Ye Mo, what was that small demonic beast that jumped out of your chest earlier?” Nangong Yurou asked as they walked. “How come even a Transcendence Realm demonic beast was scared of it?” Newest update provıded by novel-fire.ɴet
“It’s my partner,” Ye Mo said. “Perhaps they’re related, so I was allowed to live. Do you really think an expert in the Transcendence Realm would be scared of my small demonic beast?”
“But it said some something about a Green-eyed Gold Crystal Beast. I feel like I’ve heard those words before.” Nangong Yurou pouted as Ye Mo followed behind her. She couldn’t help but wonder, as she turned around to look at Ye Mo’s figure. Nangong Yurou felt strangely safe around him.
Ye Mo had grown to six feet tall. He was taller than an average adult. With his dragon blood strengthening his body, he was also robust.
“I heard a few palaces want to deal with you,” Nangong Yurou said softly. “Even I was almost dragged into the Heavenly Palace’s influence. Apart from the Human Dao Palace, the other four palaces have all gathered, with their base in a valley or cave. They want to find the Desolate Ancient Pearls together. If they encounter a Transcendence Realm demonic beast, they can leave in time. Jian Kuang from the Heavenly Palace has just reached the Spirit Devour Realm and is ready to deal with you.”
“Then why aren’t you with them?” Ye Mo asked curiously.
“I have the map. I wanted to get more Desolate Ancient Pearls myself. If I went with them, I would have had to share,” Nangong Yurou said as her face turned slightly red. “Who knew that I would run into those people from the Human Dao Palace as soon as I found a pearl.”
According to Nangong Yurou’s map, they were heading towards the Flame Demon Valley. A lot of demonic beasts lived around the valley, and they weren’t very strong. There had to be some Desolate Ancient Pearls in the nests of all those demonic beasts.
At the moment, they were walking into a Fire Bamboo Forest. As they talked, they could hear rapid footsteps from about 30 meters away. Ye Mo frowned as he pulled Nangong Yurou and hid. Nearby was the meeting point for new disciples from the Hell Dao. Four of the disciples were heavily injured as they ran to the meeting point.
“It’s Chen Bei, Zhang Ao, Ma Hong, and Yu Tianjiao’s three brothers,” one of the disciples said. “You guys guard here. I’ll get some Den medicine from our Brother.” The speaker hurriedly ran away, toward a valley in the distance. Not long after, more than a dozen Hell Dao disciples ran out.
Each one had an extraordinary aura. Even the weakest were in the late Energy Burst Realm. The strongest were experts in the late Spirit Devour Realm. Among them was a bald man, who took out a top-grade healing medicine from his Dimensional Bracelet. It was a rank four healing Pill, the Tai Qing Pill. It could heal those in the Transcendence Realm, but it had the best healing effect for those in the Spirit Devour Realm. The bald man was the strongest new disciple in the Hell Dao. He had bulky muscles and was a power-based martial artist. He had reached the late Spirit Devour Realm. His name was Gu Yuan.
“Chen Bei, what happened?” Gu Yuan frowned as he saw that their wounds weren’t made by demonic beasts, but a person. “You three are all in the mid-Spirit Devour Realm. How could someone hurt you so much?”
“A group of black-robed people sneak-attacked us.” Chen Bei stuffed a Tai Qing Pill into his mouth. His injuries started to heal. “They wore bamboo hats and didn’t look like new disciples from the Six Dao Palaces. I think they were disciples who got locked up here in the Desolate Ancient World.”
“How strong were they?” Gu Yuan said. “It’s true that they wouldn’t want us to pass the trial since they were eliminated. But if they were eliminated, they should have the consciousness to not interfere with other people.”
“They were all experts in the mid-Spirit Devour Realm. They were very strong,” Chen Bei said.
“Disciples who were eliminated are naturally weak disciples,” Gu Yuan said. “Living here for a year must have helped them train to the mid Spirit Devour Realm.”
“But I saw the young society head’s lady get taken away by them,” Chen Bei continued. “They threatened to rape and kill her if we didn’t gather 20 Desolate Ancient Pearls to exchange for her within 10 days.”
“What did you say?” Gu Yuan said with surprise. “That woman’s aura isn’t ordinary. How could she be so easily caught?”
“I don’t know. If she dies in the Desolate Ancient World, I’m afraid the young society head will lose his temper.” Chen Bei shook his head.
Hearing this, Ye Mo’s clenched his teeth. Although he didn’t know how strong Xiao Yue was now, whoever dared to kidnap her was a dead man.
A dark shadow flashed by and landed above the Fiery Bamboos, two hands held across his chest. The person was dressed in a black robe and wore a black Bamboo Hat on his head. His aura was very powerful.
“Who are you? I don’t think you’re a freshman of the Six Dao Palaces, ” Gu Yuan’s eyes showed a trace of fear as he saw the black-robed man in front of him. The newcomer’s strength was similar to his, also in the late Spirit Devour Realm.
“Hand over all your Desolate Ancient Pearls or die,” the black-robed man said. He was very confident despite facing a group of Hell Dao disciples.
“Are you a disciple who was eliminated a few years ago?” Gu Yuan asked.
“Eliminated? Haha! With my strength, how could I be eliminated?” the black-robed man asked. “I stayed behind in the Desolate Ancient World deliberately. My purpose is to kill all the Six Dao Palaces’ new disciples. This was the order given to me by the society head. Of course, if you can escape from me, then it is your luck.”
Nangong Yurou, who was leaning against Ye Mo, frowned and said, “They weren’t sent by the society head. They’re from the First Heaven Society.”
“First Heaven Society?” Ye Mo was surprised. It was his second time hearing that name.
“First Heaven Society is a secret group. They are not a group of honest people, and their society head is very mysterious. They’re not very powerful right now. The Door of Desolation is much stronger. But when the First Heaven Society really comes to the surface, the Door of Desolation will have to go to war with them.”
“How do you know?” Ye Mo asked in surprise. This news shocked Ye Mo, but the Door of Desolation had dominated the Desolate City for so long, so of course, there would be other forces who were jealous.
“I overheard it. My father was talking to the society head. I was pouring tea for them, and so I overheard a little.” Nangong Yurou said. “They’re terrifying. They want to subtly eliminate the Door of Desolation. When the time comes, under the command of the First Heaven Society’s society head, they’ll destroy the entire Door of Desolation.”
“Are those men who kidnapped Yue Yue also from the First Heaven Society?” At the thought of this, a burst of anger emerged in Ye Mo’s heart. His eyes were murderous.
Ye Mo would make anyone who dared to touch a single hair on Yue Yue regret the day they were born.
