Chapter 693: Bloodline Clash

Ye Liuyun also discovered that within Yan Yong's primordial elixir, there was also a bead-like treasure hidden.

It is this treasure that suppresses his realm, allowing him to now only exert the strength of a fifth-layer primordial elixir.

However, he can, during battle, at any time move that treasure aside, thereby suddenly erupting with the strength of a sixth-layer Yin Yang.

"Yan Yong, this is a martial arena; what are you shouting about?"

The steward beside him obviously also knew him, but also, according to the martial arena's rules, intervened to stop him.

"Ye Liuyun is currently challenging. If you want revenge, you can directly sign up to fight. Don't shout nonsense here."

Yan Yong, upon hearing this, directly nodded and said: "Good, I'll sign up!"

After saying that, he also ignored the steward and directly rushed to the rest area to prepare for battle.

Logically speaking, if Ye Liuyun exposed him, he would not be qualified to fight Ye Liuyun.

However, Ye Liuyun merely gave a contemptuous smile; since there is a grudge, it's better to settle it on the spot. He also didn't want to delay further.

Even if he is a sixth-layer Yin Yang martial cultivator, this cheating person is, in Ye Liuyun's eyes, just a clown.

Just as Yan Yong was about to enter the rest area, he suddenly felt a divine sense pressure from a venerable expert sweep over him.

His heart startled: "Is the City Lord also here? Could it be that my cheating has been discovered by the City Lord?"

You should know, the martial arena's rules are extremely strict. Once cheating is discovered, the only result is immediate execution.

For a moment, he felt a bit regretful for being somewhat rash. It would have been better to wait until Ye Liuyun left Yi Cheng before acting.

Just in that instant, sweat on Yan Yong's head began to flow. His back was also soaked through by cold sweat.

However, that divine sense merely swept past. Afterwards, nothing else happened.

"Good, I wasn't discovered!"

Only then did he exhale a breath of relief and walk into the rest area, reassured.

Inside the private room, Tuoba Qi gave a slight smile: "Adding a bit of difficulty for you is also quite interesting!"

The divine sense that had just swept over Yan Yong was emitted by Tuoba Qi.

He has a general understanding of all renowned martial cultivators within the martial arena.

In his impression, Yan Yong should be at the sixth-layer Yin Yang realm, so he went to investigate a bit.

Although he lacks the Golden Pupil and cannot see as intuitively as Ye Liuyun, his powerful divine sense also detected Yan Yong's cheating.

However, he wanted to give Ye Liuyun a bit more difficulty. Indeed, up to now he has won too easily, and he finds it unsatisfying.

If Ye Liuyun truly cannot defeat Yan Yong, he will then intervene, exposing Yan Yong's cheating on the spot, and will not let Ye Liuyun suffer harm.

After all, this would be unfair to Ye Liuyun; if he were to let Ye Liuyun get hurt because of this, he himself would feel uneasy.

After Yan Yong entered the rest area, a steward directly came over to warn him: "No fighting is allowed here, nor is disturbing others' recovery of true essence permitted. Otherwise, immediate execution!"

Yan Yong nodded, then closed his eyes, not looking at Ye Liuyun, lest he could not contain his anger and break the rules here.

He used to be a regular here, knowing the rules. When they say execution, they really will execute him.

The steward guarding the rest area is a martial cultivator of the eighth-layer Yin Yang; he would not dare, in front of such an expert, to openly employ tricks.

Moreover, since he has already cheated, Ye Liuyun will surely die sooner or later, so he is not in a hurry to act immediately.

Ye Liuyun also paid him no further attention, completely not taking him to heart.

As the door to the preparation area opened, he calmly walked onto the stage, facing Qu Xuefeng from a distance.

The two exchanged glances, nodded at each other, said nothing more, and directly began to fight.

Qu Xuefeng, knowing Ye Liuyun is difficult to deal with, as soon as he came up began to circulate bloodline power within his body, intending to suppress Ye Liuyun's bloodline.

Upon seeing him activate, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil immediately also activated in sync.

At the same time, this was also his final check, monitoring whether his bloodline circulation matched Qu Xuefeng's.

"Boom!"

After one cycle of their bloodline circulation, both simultaneously erupted with powerful bloodline pressure.

Ye Liuyun, however, was unaffected; he had been mentally prepared.

Qu Xuefeng, however, was startled, his face instantly turning dark as iron.

Ye Liuyun's bloodline power was actually stronger than his!

Qu Xuefeng exerted his full power, never expecting to be suppressed by Ye Liuyun.

His strength now has twenty percent that he cannot exert.

For a moment, his mind went blank.

He did not expect that Ye Liuyun had learned his technique; he merely thought Ye Liuyun had other techniques that could also instantly boost bloodline power.

But this already far exceeded his expectations.

He himself often relies on bloodline suppression against others; now it's his turn to be suppressed, and he naturally knows what that means.

He now only hopes that Ye Liuyun's bloodline power cannot be sustained.

"Whoosh!"

Ye Liuyun threw a Bà Tiān Divine Fist, which had already come over.

Qu Xuefeng hurriedly returned a punch with all his strength.

"Bang!"

After a booming sound, Qu Xuefeng was knocked back five or six zhang by Ye Liuyun's punch.

At this moment, he was numbed all over by the Blood Thunder blast, his fist charred black by the Golden Crow Holy Fire. Immediately, his throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of blood surged up.

He hastily closed his mouth, gritted his teeth fiercely, and swallowed that mouthful of blood down.

With another "boom" sound ringing in his ears, he immediately felt himself being flung out again.

With a "puff" sound, it was the mouthful of blood he had just swallowed that was finally sprayed out.

This time, after Ye Liuyun had just thrown a punch, he immediately drew his blade.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil judged both sides' strength and Qu Xuefeng's landing point with not a hair's difference.

Qu Xuefeng was directly struck in the chest by Ye Liuyun's Yi Dao, giving him no chance to catch his breath.

Before Qu Xuefeng could even land, Ye Liuyun's figure had already appeared at his side, and another Bà Tiān Divine Fist smashed him toward the ground.

Originally face-up, Qu Xuefeng was hit so that his head and feet collided, accelerating his smash into the ground.

With a 'thud', he heavily smashed onto the fighting platform.

This blow, if not for his Physical Body being also tough, would have been enough to scatter his skeleton!

Qu Xuefeng's fellow sect member Qiu Tianyang had already stood up, nervous.

At this moment, Qu Xuefeng spat blood from his mouth, unable to speak, and was further dazed by Ye Liuyun's three consecutive strikes, utterly unable to admit defeat.

He worried that Ye Liuyun would directly kill Qu Xuefeng. After all, in previous fights, Ye Liuyun's strikes were also quite ruthless, having killed many.

However, Ye Liuyun did not intend to kill Qu Xuefeng.

Although he was looked down upon, he also understood this situation. Even he would sometimes ignore people.

Ye Liuyun wasn't that petty either.

After all, Qu Xuefeng is also a disciple of a great sect; Ye Liuyun didn't want to invite retaliation.

So he knocked Qu Xuefeng unconscious and then directly withdrew.
