Chapter 55: Surrounded by the accusations of a thousand men, public sentiment surges

~8 min read 1,580 words

"Old thing, I said back then that the next time we met, I would personally cut off your head to avenge the shame of that day."

"Are you satisfied with this result now?"

The Fifth Elder's pupils contracted as he looked at the familiar face before him, wanting to open his mouth to curse in rage.

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle." As he opened his mouth, a spray of blood foam erupted.

Ye Ming laughed loudly, his left hand brushing lightly over the Fifth Elder's neck, and the three Dark Gold Terrorclaw blades attached to the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Left Palm Bone sprang out! With a gentle swipe, he split him in two.

The Fifth Elder died just like that; amidst the fresh blood, his eyes remained fixed on Ye Ming, staring in death.

Ye Ming's expression was indifferent, as if he had done something insignificant.

He stood up and kicked the Fifth Elder's head away.

The head rolled and rolled, rolling right in front of Tang Long and the other disciples.

……

A deathly silence! Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

Around the perimeter of the Yanwu Chang, fiery red flames rose, reflecting a faint, ruddy glow on Ye Ming's face.

On the grounds, the disciples stood like statues, silent and motionless.

Some had their mouths open wide enough to fit a fist. Others had their eyes rounded, nearly popping out of their sockets.

Tang Long, Tang Hu, and Tang Yu looked at the head at their feet, then raised their heads to look at Ye Ming with dazed expressions.

It was not until the outer courtyard wall collapsed in the flames outside that everyone was jolted awake as if by an electric shock.

"I, I... I'll be damned!!" someone shouted in a rage.

"Tang Yeming, what kind of stupid thing have you done!" someone pointed at Ye Ming, trembling all over.

"The Fifth Elder!!" someone wailed, feeling heartbroken over the Fifth Elder's death.

Someone cursed loudly,

"Tang Yeming, have you lost your mind?"

"Tang Yeming, you killed the Fifth Elder, you even plotted against your own blood kin, are you even human?!"

"Waaah, Tang Yeming, you must be a spy sent by those Soul Beasts, a traitor!"

Surrounded by the accusations of a thousand men and with public sentiment surging, Ye Ming smiled faintly: "I am a Third Rank Peak, Sixtieth Level Soul King; who dares to kill me? Who can kill me?"

At this moment, in the Yanwu Chang, the ones with the highest cultivation were only the two Soul Emperors, Tang Long and Tang Hu; among the other disciples, the only one left with a decent cultivation was the Soul King, Tang Yu!

Without the Title Douluo in the sect, he, Ye Ming, could unleash his full combat power and look down upon everyone in this Yanwu Chang!

Tang Long looked at Ye Ming, who showed no sign of remorse, and a look of indignation appeared on his face.

"Ye Ming, you slaughtered an Elder and betrayed the Clear Sky Sect; you have already fallen into the demonic path!"

"The Clear Sky Sect can no longer tolerate you!"

"Today, your blood must be used to sacrifice to the Fifth Elder!!"

At this moment, he had already severed the past ties between the two in his heart! Six soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—appeared on Tang Long's body.

He exchanged a glance with Tang Hu and shouted to the crowd of disciples:

"Everyone, we cannot break through the wall of fire right now; we can only wait for the Sect Master and the others to wipe out a few Soul Beasts before they come to rescue us!"

"Before that, we must kill this beast Ye Ming who betrayed the Clear Sky Sect!"

In the crowd, Tang Yu's expression was conflicted. After hesitating for a long while, he still summoned his Clear Sky Hammer martial soul and followed in the footsteps of Tang Long and the others, charging toward Ye Ming in the center! "Hahaha! Come on then!"

"After today, the Clear Sky Sect will cease to exist!"

Ye Ming laughed loudly, and two translucent blue light wings trailing lightning appeared behind his back; with a 'whoosh', he flew into mid-air.

At this time, the surrounding flames were sweeping inward, and the only path of survival around the entire Clear Sky Sect was above in the sky.

If Ye Ming wanted to leave, he could use the Thunder Wing Gu to depart right now.

But, having reached this point, he would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

The moment he appeared, he had already learned through the Three-Eyed Golden Ni that Chi Wang had already taken it and was preparing to return to the Star Dou Great Forest. Xiong Jun's battle with Tang Xiao was ten thousand meters in the sky, so naturally, he had no time to attend to this place.

He hovered in mid-air, translucent blue lightning flickering behind him. Looking at the crowd gathered below, the light of the Treasure Moon Gu on the back of his head flickered.

The Triple Scroll was activated, and a hundred finger-length translucent blue Moon Blades, greatly enhanced by the Treasure Moon Gu, instantly slaughtered the disciples below! The direct descendants of the Clear Sky Sect only possessed the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.

This meant that without the strength of a Title Douluo, they could not fly at all! This resulted in them becoming sitting ducks for Ye Ming! "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!"

A hundred Moon Blades were released, and countless disciples screamed instantly.

In an instant, flesh and blood flew! This single attack alone slaughtered over a dozen Great Soul Masters, several Soul Elders, and even Soul Ancestor disciples!

"How is this possible!"

During the last disciple tournament, only one hundred and eighty disciples of the Clear Sky Sect participated, and when Ye Ming left, he had already killed thirty-seven disciples from the Fifth Elder's faction.

However, there were more than a hundred people on this Yanwu Chang. Among them were also the families of the sect disciples! "Tang Yeming!!"

"You devil!!"

"Beast!"

Curses and screams rang out frantically across this Yanwu Chang.

Ye Ming said nothing and directly mobilized the Blood Skull Gu within his aperture, beginning to absorb the blood of these blood kin.

The reason he did not use a Shajiao to finish them off directly was for fear that his beloved friends and brothers would be shattered into blood foam, leaving nothing for the Blood Skull Gu to absorb.

Tang Long and Tang Hu watched their blood kin fall, blood and tears welling up in their eyes. The two gritted their teeth and wove through the crowd, attempting to block Ye Ming's slaughter.

But it was completely useless!

How could the speed of a Third Rank Thunder Wing Gu be something the two of them could catch up to?

Not to mention that Ye Ming was also driving the Wind Moon Wheel Gu, a Third Rank mobility Gu! Ignoring the pursuit of the few behind him, Ye Ming activated the Triple Scroll and Yumang Gu in turns, and countless amounts of fresh blood poured into the Blood Skull Gu.

After absorbing over a hundred friends and kin, the Blood Skull Gu reached its limit, and the surface of the crystal skull became dripping red.

Ye Ming chuckled and activated the Blood Skull Gu, letting it hover above his head.

The Blood Spring drenched his body, merging into his aperture.

His True Essence Sea churned, and his long-stagnant aptitude began to advance by leaps and bounds! His aptitude of seventy-seven percent instantly surged to eighty percent, reaching all the way to eighty-nine percent! A flash of joy crossed his eyes, which were like deep pools, and he continued to urge the Blood Skull Gu to begin absorbing! The Moon Blade danced, splashing up flakes of blood.

In the end, only Tang Long, Tang Hu, and Tang Yu remained.

Covered in wounds, they stood amidst the corpses, staring blankly at the calm and unruffled Ye Ming before them.

"Madman, you are a madman!"

Tang Hu did not stop his pace, advancing through the pool of blood, using the last shred of his soul power to throw a punch at Ye Ming.

Unfortunately, his injuries were too severe, and this punch only left a bloodstain on Ye Ming's clothes.

"Hum!"

Ye Ming waved his left hand, and the Dark Gold claw blade directly exploded his head.

"No!!" Tang Long let out a hoarse cry, questioning, "Why! Why!"

"If you do this, you won't be able to escape either! The Sect Master and the Elders will definitely kill you!"

The moment Tang Long finished speaking, a whistling sound rang out from above the sky.

The severed corpse fragments of the Second Elder and Third Elder, separated by the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear, along with the Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder slaughtered by Wan Yao Wang, slammed down heavily, shattering into a puddle of mush on the Yanwu Chang.

Ye Ming shrugged, "It seems they won't be able to kill me."

Tang Long was stunned, his inner faith collapsing in an instant.

He let out a roar and charged madly toward Ye Ming!

Ye Ming flicked the Moon Blade in his hand, directly killing this most outstanding Chief Disciple of the Clear Sky Sect.

He turned his head to look at the only person left on the Yanwu Chang, Tang Yu!
