“You shouldn’t bother someone when they’re busy.” Ye Qing took one step forward and appeared in front of the Evil Body. The young man did not look fine. In fact, he looked terrible. His hair was loose and disheveled, his body was covered in blood and wounds, and the wounds were overflowing with killing intent that constantly ate away at his vitality and prevented his wounds from healing. It had been a long time since he looked this terrible. “You think you can stop me? Get lost!” The Evil Body performed a horizontal cut, and a thread of blood as fine as a cicada’s wing split heaven and earth into two. It was like the beginning of primal chaos. As Ye Qing was standing right in front of the Evil Body, he could only cross his arms in front of his chest and block the attack head on. There was a metallic clang as Ye Qing shot backward into a mountain. The mountain collapsed, and the soil and rocks buried him. The Evil Body reversed his grip on the blade and rushed forward. When he was ten meters away from the mountain, he tapped the ground gently with the tip. One inch was enough to annihilate all life. The collapsing mountain and the falling rocks instantly disintegrated into powder, leaving behind only saber intent and bloody light in the air. One strike later, the Evil Body stopped delaying and rushed toward the Good Body. Earlier, Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou had intentionally or unintentionally—actually screw that, they were definitely plotting this—pulled them apart from each other. That was why he needed to get back and help the Good Body kill Feng Qingyou as soon as possible. When he passed by the pile of powder though, a hand reached out and grabbed his ankle. The hand, no, the entire arm was covered in wounds and bleeding all over. There wasn’t a single intact skin on it. However, the Evil Body felt as if he was pinned down by a mountain. He could not move at all. Ye Qing’s laughter erupted behind the powder. The Evil Body did not hesitate. He immediately cut Ye Qing in the arm. It was like cutting water. The Crown of Butchers easily sliced open his skin, flesh and blood like it was rotten wood even though they were really impervious to most things. However, the Crown of Butchers came to a dead halt when it struck Ye Qing’s bones. It could not move another inch further. “Hmm?” The Evil Body was surprised. He did not think it was possible for a flesh-and-blood body to block his Crown of Butchers. “Come down, you.” Before the Evil Body could respond, Ye Qing dragged him underneath the ground. The next moment, the ground roared like an earth drake. It shook, stirred, cracked, and crumbled non-stop. A dozen or so breaths later, a deafening boom caused the ground within ten kilometers to collapse inward. At the same time, infinite bloody light and killing intent gushed out into the open. Standing amidst the bloody light was the Evil Body. The Evil Body was looking ragged and dusty though. Clearly, he had taken a huge blow during the brief but intense battle in the underground. As strong as he was, not even he could gain the upper hand when fighting against Ye Qing at close range. Black Robe was furious, but he did not allow that fury to overtake his better senses. After shaking off Ye Qing, he surrounded himself in bloody light and flew toward his Good Body. Unfortunately, he had only crossed three hundred meters of distance when he was forced to stop in his tracks. He frowned deeply. It was because Ye Qing had appeared in front of him once more and blocked his path. The young man grinned at him and clasped his hands together. Then, he struck the ground hard. The ground within kilometers of him flipped up like a tidal wave and crashed toward the Evil Body. The Crown of Butchers vibrated softly, and droplets of blood dripped off the bloody thread. At the same time, terrifying murderous intent penetrated heaven and earth. The blade hadn’t moved, but the kilometers long earth was turned into powder. “I see you don’t want to live even a second longer.” The Evil Body stared at Ye Qing with cold, cruel eyes. It looked like he was staring at a dead person. “Yep. Come kill me.” Ye Qing wiped away the blood on his lips and grinned. “Okay then. I’ll fulfill your wish.” At this point, the Evil Body knew that there was no way he could properly assist the Good Body until he killed Ye Qing. Otherwise, the bastard would cling to him like the maggot on his bones and annoy him to no end. The Evil Body decided to excise the maggot first. The next moment, the Evil Body swung the Crown of Butchers. The Evil Body suddenly disappeared into nothing when the swing began. From Ye Qing’s perspective, the Crown of Butchers was swinging toward him by its own momentum. This swing didn’t warp the world around them like before, nor did it fill up the sky with bloody light. However, it abruptly appeared on top of Ye Qing’s head as if space wasn’t a thing. Ye Qing’s expression and smile were the same. It looked as if he had failed to respond to the strike at all. He did nothing when the Crown of Butchers landed squarely on his forehead. The blade sank three inches into his forehead. The penta-colored profound light surrounding him abruptly dimmed into nothing, the vibrant flesh glowing with mysterious dark yellow light instantly lost its luster, and the fresh, lively eyes in his eye sockets turned glassy and empty in no time. It was like a human had suddenly turned into a lifeless doll. There was no life or soul in it. “You overestimate yourself, cur.” The Evil Body reappeared inside the Crown of Butchers, and he was wearing a disdainful expression. By becoming one with his blade, he had imbued it with power that even gods and demons couldn’t resist. It might look like the attack had only pierced Ye Qing’s skin and flesh a little, but it really cut his soul and all of his vitality into nothing. In other words, Ye Qing had just experienced a soul death. When the Crown of Butchers left his forehead though, a bell chime suddenly rang from within Ye Qing’s body. The bell chime didn’t sound high-pitched or loud. Instead, it was thick, profound, and unending. A dot of spiritual light descended from the heavens. An instant of radiance landed on the land of humans. The next moment, infinite power washed out of Ye Qing’s lifeless, wooden body. It was as ferocious as a volcanic eruption, as torrential as the currents of rivers and seas, and as vast and boundless as the cosmos itself. Caught completely off guard, the Evil Body failed to dodge out of the way in time when a hand caught the Crown of Butchers. Like ink dripping onto a pool of clear water, spirit reappeared in Ye Qing’s empty, lifeless eyes once more. Black and white rotating, and a smile blooming across his face once more, Ye Qing grabbed the blade of the Crown of Butchers with his bare hand and declared, “Stop running.” The Crown of Butchers vibrated violently and unleashed its unparalleled killing intent. It was a killing intent that could kill everything and stood opposed against the world itself. It could kill celestials, demons, gods, Buddhas, mountains and rivers, suns and moons, everything.

But it could not hurt Ye Qing’s palm even a little, much less break free from his grasp. “You should lend me a hand too, bud.” Ignoring the Crown of Butchers’ struggles, Ye Qing moved the handle to his right hand, grabbed it, and took a step forward. A storm rose immediately. Pure white flowed down from the nine heavens, and pitch black rose from beneath the earth. The white was flawlessly white, and the black was impossibly black. They combined in the air and transformed into a millstone. The millstone was white up top and black down below. They were also moving in opposite directions. Together, they ground time, life, death, and reincarnation into powder.
