"Sa!"
His cold gaze was accompanied by the sound of flesh being cut; a beautiful color of blood splashed the white snow. The beautiful woman clasped her sword tightly as she removed the head of another man. All along his cold gaze did not churn with the slightest hint of emotion.
On the winter cliff, the woman was only wearing a thin dress. The original white had been covered with endless bursts of red blood.
Near his feet were nearly a hundred corpses scattered in the snow. Their blood and blood mixture flowed like a river.
This whole thing isn't over.
The woman slightly raised her head. Her pale and beautiful face was visible as her deep eyes swept about a hundred meters away. He only saw that he was surrounded by tens of thousands of men and women, everyone staring at him with eyes full of greed as they stood motionless.
His eyes swept from face to face, his lips raised to form an evil and unrestrained arch. He wiped his hands on his stomach as a drop of blood came out of his mouth. Her originally pale lips were smeared with a touch of demonic red.
Seventy-nine people .. Who will go next?
Ye Qingtang had never imagined that one day he would become an enemy of the entire world, ten thousand people surrounded him on top of the Lingyun cliff.
All of this owed to the heart of the Demon Emperor within his chest.
If the Demon Emperor were to truly descend, the sky would be extinguished and the earth would lose all lives.
Ye Qingtang was not the Demon Emperor and he understood more than anyone else why the heart of the Demon Emperor would appear within his body.
But nothing else matters.
All the men and women before him were here today for just one purpose, to steal the heart of the Demon Emperor. After all, the only lucky cultivators who ate hearts would have heaven-defying power Demon Emperor!
No one cared if it meant that Ye Qingtang would die. In their eyes, he was merely a container that currently held the Heart of a Demon Emperor.
How ridiculous is that ?!
Ye Qingtang slightly straightened his body, the blood on his bare feet dissolving in the snow. Despite the wounds on his body, he impressively raised a double-edged sword, directing it towards the crowd. More specifically, he pointed his sword at a woman wearing extraordinary clothing from head to toe surrounded by thousands of guards.
“Ye You, leave this trashy material,” his gaze slightly moved to look at the armed man on the woman's side before he focused again, “if you want heart, come and get yourself.” Ye Qingtang smiled but that was not reflected in his eyes.
Back in their youth Ye You and she were both talents from the Ye household, only the spirit root Ye Qingtang rarely saw a one-in-millennium spirit root. But Ye Qingtang no longer had that spirit root, Ye You had made sure of that. He had torn off Ye Qingtang's body with his own hands and dug out his spirit root for his own use.
You You have put his new spirit root well. In one leap she became a genius that everyone else had to watch out for; right now she was a noble Female Emperor that was respected by both old and young. Ye Qingtang, on the other hand, was not lucky. He lived his days as a cripple, the only person he could rely on at such times, his parents and close relatives, had also been eliminated by Ye You.
This account had been buried within Ye Qingtang's heart for three hundred years.
Hearing his name being called by Ye Qingtang, Ye You's brows furrowed slightly. He looked at Ye Qingtang with eyes full of disdain. To him Ye Qingtang had only made a final struggle, his strength was similar to that of an ant. Such a person did not have the qualifications to move Ye You.
Hearing the order, the crowd started moving towards Ye Qingtang.
Facing the attack of ten thousand men, even if Ye Qingtang had three heads of six arms, he still had no chance of winning.
Behind him was an abyss and in front of him was an army that wanted his heart. But regardless of the situation, no trace of fear could be found on Ye Qingtang's pretty face. All this time he had only looked towards Ye You, the curse of his existence that had destroyed everything he loved.
Ye You wanted the heart of the Demon Emperor, he wanted him to be destroyed.Of course, Ye Qingtang would not let his wish be fulfilled.
At the moment the men advanced to Ye Qingtang, he raised his hand. Curving his fingers, he tore his chest apart and broke the heart of the Demon Emperor that everyone had come over!
"explosion!"
As Ye Qingtang broke his heart, a deafening loud sound burst into Lingyun Cliff.
As the heart of the Demon Emperor was destroyed, the atmosphere between heaven and earth came to a halt, strong winds swept over the cliffs and cracks broke through the path at the Lingyun Cliff.
At this moment Ye You and the others were busy escaping in chaos; neither of them had the time to worry about Ye Qingtang or the heart of the Demon Emperor.
Amidst the winds of storms and earthquakes, Ye Qingtang who had been lying in a pool of blood fell into the abyss along with the earth and the surrounding boulders.
Yet…
In the chaos, everyone failed to notice the golden rays of light rushing at the fallen Ye Qingtang.
Time stopped at that moment.
Falling stones hung in the air, a shadow flashed and a man stood on the suspended stones.
The man was handsome to death suffocating; he was wearing a pure white garment that swayed in the wind. He quietly stood near Ye Qingtang's corpse, staring at the gaping bloody hole in his chest. The familiar feeling he knew gradually disappeared.
"I found you . "
His pleasant voice was torn apart by the strong wind. He crouched down slowly until he knelt beside Qingtang's corpse. He stretched out his slender fingers as he lightly stroked the area of the bloody wound. Seeing a thread of steam billowing from Ye Qingtang's chest, the man began to condense a translucent heart at the curves of his palm.
But just when the heart is about to become steam becomes irregular. The heart in the man's hand parted into many small stars and flew into Ye Qingtang's body where they disappeared.
Admiration flashed in the man's eyes, "So that's why …"
The next instant, the man pointed his finger down at Ye Qingtang's brows. A golden ray quietly entered his brows …
