Capítulo 1352: Chapter 1352: Attempted Murder Amid Opportunity! First Update That body, still gushing blood, long without a head, had become a headless corpse. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novel fire.net In the eyes of Shang Emperor and Armand, shock was evident. Both of them had lived through that period over a thousand years ago, and had often fought against Elder Mu, always considering him a formidable foe. Yet this very strong adversary had died right before their eyes, and at the hands of Ye Qiu. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, the two would never believe it, but the truth stood before them. Elder Mu was killed by Ye Qiu, his skull blown apart with one punch, utterly dead. Both the angel and vampire clans exchanged glances, sharing the same thoughts as Shang Emperor and Armand. “That old fellow has finally died,” Shang Emperor sighed, a flicker of joy in his eyes. “With him dead, the Taichi Saint Heir he protected is no longer invincible,” Armand said. Ye Qiu killing Elder Mu was both his fortune and his skill. Within the Burial Soldiers Array, Dantian powers were sealed, causing Elder Mu’s powers to decline significantly. Because of the array, his powers diminished further, forcing him to rely solely on his physical strength. Ordinarily, even with just physical strength, Elder Mu would defeat Ye Qiu. But don’t forget, since entering the Burial Soldiers Array, Elder Mu had been constantly fighting, expending his powers in the deadly array previously and never fully recovering. After exerting himself for the Taichi Saint Heir, trying to seize the golden fragment, he consumed even more power and afterward continually pursued Ye Qiu, clashing with him alongside Shang Emperor and Armand. It’s fair to say, bit by bit, he exhausted his physical strength, and Ye Qiu was the final straw that broke Elder Mu’s physical power. No one else could have harmed Elder Mu. Elder Mu would never have thought that a superior elder-level figure would die at the hands of someone at Ye Qiu’s level of human king realm. Killing Elder Mu took a toll on Ye Qiu, causing his muscles to relax instantly from tension, forming a unique state in his body due to the excessive activation of his physical power, as if entering a state of hibernation, neither absorbing external energy nor self-recovering. Shang Emperor and Armand shifted their gaze from the dead Elder Mu to Ye Qiu. “Though we are arch-enemies, this Oriental is too terrifying. Now able to kill this fellow, in the future, he might as well kill us. Besides, he holds grudges against us, now is the best chance to kill him,” Shang Emperor suddenly said. Armand was tempted, Ye Qiu had snatched Shangguan Mingyue in front of everyone, causing him great embarrassment. Taking this chance to eliminate Ye Qiu would surely satisfy his desire for revenge. However, Armand still shook his head: “I, Armand, disdain killing him in such a manner. If I am to kill him, I will do it openly.” Shang Emperor sneered: “You think you have the power to kill him directly? Ridiculous, didn’t you see how he killed that old man? You must know this Oriental is young, yet possesses such strength. If he survives, he will become increasingly terrifying in the future, and the gap between you and him will only widen. Killing him face-to-face? Heh, you’ll never achieve that.” “Since you won’t take action, I’ll do it.” Shang Emperor, regardless of Armand’s response, intended to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end Ye Qiu’s life. Otherwise, facing Ye Qiu directly with his own power, if able to make Ye Qiu appear , he wouldn’t fare much better either. Shang Emperor approached Ye Qiu, raised his fist, speaking not toward Armand but still directing his words to him: “Armand, do you know why your vampire clan has always hidden in the shadows? Besides losing to me in the past, it’s because your methods aren’t clean or efficient, always thinking to defeat opponents face-to-face, ignorant of the phrase ‘winners and losers.’ This world belongs to the victors, regardless of how they claim victory. As long as they win, they’re the truth.” Armand clenched his fist, angrily shouting: “My vampire clan is not shameless like you!” “Ha-ha, whether you call me shameless or despicable, the world believes me, remembers me, not you. That’s my victory,” Shang Emperor said. “Only because they do not know your true nature,” Armand replied. “Indeed, facing the world, I wear a benevolent face, whereas with you, I go all out. After all, only enemies truly understand you best. That’s why I can’t bear to kill you all.” Shang Emperor laughed heartily, then his laughter abruptly stopped, refocusing on Ye Qiu: “Alright, let me kill this guy first, then we’ll settle our past grievances.” Shang Emperor reached out, his white palm able to easily crush steel and stone, let alone Ye Qiu’s body. His palm targeted Ye Qiu’s chest, intending to snatch out Ye Qiu’s internal organs, ensuring his complete death. Just as Shang Emperor’s fingers touched Ye Qiu’s body, a sudden massive force sent him flying. A young girl appeared instantaneously. She picked up Ye Qiu, disappearing more than a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, her speed astonishing, leaving Shang Emperor without time to react. As Shang Emperor regained his senses, he summoned the six angels, immediately pursuing, but after chasing several hundred meters, he found the young girl had utterly vanished. “Damn it! Who on earth took him away?” Shang Emperor’s face soured, he was so close to killing Ye Qiu. When Shang Emperor returned to the battlefield with the six angels, he discovered Armand and the other vampires had vanished. Even Elder Mu’s corpse had disappeared along with them. “Damn it, these cursed blood-sucking worms.” The mere thought of the vampire’s special skills caused Shang Emperor anxiety, fearing Elder Mu’s corpse would enhance the vampire clan leader’s power. “I wonder how much power the dead’s blood can grant them,” Shang Emperor showed a hint of worry. After lingering on the battlefield briefly, Shang Emperor quickly left with the six angels, sensing impending major changes within the Burial Soldiers Array, suspecting the Taichi Saint Heir wouldn’t let this matter rest. In truth, when Elder Mu died, the Taichi Saint Heir already felt it, a jade fragment upon him shattered, it was Elder Mu’s life token. His sole protector dead, the Taichi Saint Heir stood abruptly, startling other Saint Heirs present. “Taichi, what happened?” Demon Lord asked, noticing the sudden pallor on Taichi Saint Heir’s face. “My protector has died, I need to check it out,” Taichi Saint Heir opened his mouth, leaving Demon Lord, Turquoise Pool, Donghua Holy Son and others taken aback. That elder-level strong one, actually died? Who could have done it?
