Chapter 1125 – The winner and loser is decided

Translator: Aran

At the sight of the black ships that were like Immortal palaces flying in the void, as well as the celestial horse corps around the gigantic ship and the soldiers of the military camp, they could not help but cheer in a low voice.

And in the eyes of the black-haired Dark Ones, were the shadows of death coming.

The power and might of the army of Central City had accumulated for a long time was extremely terrifying to the black-haired Dark Ones of the surrounding villages. They were used to shivering in front of the Guardians, and any resistance would lead to brutal and merciless retaliation.

At this moment, Eleven, who was acting as a justice trial judge, finally stopped what he was doing. In fact almost all the several hundreds of soldiers of the military camp who followed Shao Xuzheng and Yao Xin before had already been put on trial, and the soldiers that had been stained with the blood of the villagers of Ten Kilometers Village had all been killed.

“Lord, the City Lord is here.” Eleven stood next to Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu nodded.

According to the memory of Little Ten, Zhang Longcheng of the Luoshen Ridge was also one of the murderers that killed Mister Ren Puyang, but it was not certain. Ye Qingyu, through the Emperor Detection Technique, had learned of the killer's appearance and physique, thus whether Zhang Longcheng was the real murderer or not, he will know when he sees him.

Everything was going to be over soon.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

There were several flashes of light.

On the dirt field were suddenly another hundreds of figures.

Ye Qingyu looked over with an indifferent expression.

The leader was tall and imposing-looking, like a fierce general who had fought hundreds of battles. While Shao Xuzheng was standing beside him like a servant. He was evidently the City Lord of Central City of Luoshen Ridge, Zhang Longcheng.

And next to Zhang Longcheng, in addition to a dozen experts of different ages all clad in ordinary robes, there was a young man around seventeen or eighteen years old. The corners of his mouth was curved upwards in a sinister smile, brows bushy, and he gave off a domineering and arrogant air. He must be the young City Lord who had a habit of letting the pet beasts eat the Dark Ones.

“Is this the madman you're talking about that killed my pet beasts?” The young City Lord asked Shao Xuzheng, pointing to Ye Qingyu and saying in an arrogant and bossy tone.

Shao Xuzheng swept a glance over Ye Qingyu, a sinister smile coming to his face. “It is this madman. He said he killed young City Lord's pet beasts, and not only that, he also wants to kill you too.”

At this time, he naturally desperately fanned the flames.

It would be best if both sides did not waste time talking nonsense and break out in a fight. At that time, the City Lord would capture this madman and torture him, without asking clearly about the whole story. Thus he would not have to take responsibility.

As expected, after hearing this, the young City Lord sneered, moved a few steps forward, and stared at Ye Qingyu. “Where did this trash come from, dare to come to my Luoshen Ridge to cause trouble, killed my pet beasts, and humiliated my father. Today, I will let you know what is worse than death in this world... Trash, report your name.”

Who would have thought that Ye Qingyu did not even take a glimpse at him.

Ye Qingyu's line of sight was firmly fixed on Zhang Longcheng, comparing him to the figure that had appeared in the Emperor Detection Technique in his mind.

“What, you don't dare to tell me?” The young City Lord moved forward threateningly.

Eleven suddenly sneered, “Child, you are immature and inexperienced. You have no idea of death or danger, hurry and back down... What kind of thing are you? What qualifications do you have to speak to my Lord?”

“You are a servant, how dare you talk to me like this?” The young City Lord was going berserk from rage. Ye Qingyu did not take him seriously, and even a hideous-looking servant dared to speak to him like that. This pair of master and servant really did not know how to write the character ‘death’.

“I am a servant, but I also know that the laws within the camp are strict. Although the Dark Ones are lowly people, they are still protected by the law. You do not abide by the law, and let your beasts devour the Dark Ones. You’re so evil and ruthless, you really deserve to be punished with death.” Eleven's scolding ability was simply unmatched.

The young City Lord was enraged.

Had someone ever spoken to him like that?

“Just a few lowly citizens, inferior to the bugs in a ditch, so what if I killed them, it is their honour to be able to be eaten by my pet beasts...” The young City Lord roared, “What did I do wrong? Huh?”

“What a shameless little brat.” Eleven said. “You do have some skills in reincarnations though. Without your Father Zhang Longcheng, you would be inferior to these people, and are just a pile of stinking dung.”

“You... come, kill him for me, kill him...” The young City Lord fumed, stomping his feet.

At this moment---

“So noisy.”

He casually waved his hand.

Swoosh!

A flame flashed across.

Before the infuriated young City Lord could react, before the esteemed masters and experts next to him could respond, the stream of flame light had already penetrated through the young City Lord’s body.

“Gu... you...” The young City Lord widened his eyes in disbelief, his face twisted in horror. He lifted his hand in a futile effort to strike back, wanting to say something, but it was already too late.

“Young Lord!”

“You deserve to die!”

The first to react was Quasi-emperor Xu Shaohua, but it was already too late.

And Zhang Longcheng, after the initial great shock, his mind suddenly went blank. In his mind this was simply something impossible. Someone had killed his son in front of him?

My son... has died like that?

Boom!

In the end, the body of the young City Lord, like a watermelon pounded by a hammer, suddenly exploded, red and white substances splattered, which immediately turned into fine blood mist and dissipated in the void.

Even in death, he still could not believe that someone dared to kill him in front of his father.

The experts and soldiers of Central City were also frozen to the spot, completely stunned, like struck by lightning.

What happened?

The... the Young City Lord is dead?

It was a scene that they had never thought of.

Shao Xuzheng was as miserable looking as though he had eaten a dead mouse. He had never thought that such a scene would happen. Thinking about what Ye Qingyu had said before, Shao Xuzheng suddenly realized that perhaps today he also had made a wrong decision?

If this young man with red hair and a red robe could defeat the City Lord and the group of esteemed masters...

With this thought, Shao Xuzheng gave a violent shudder, and almost wet his pants.

“It’s impossible, impossible.”

Shao Xuzheng was praying sincerely in his heart.

As for the Dark Ones they were dumbstruck long ago.

They couldn't understand what was going on.

This was beyond the realm of their understanding.

Silence.

A deathly silence.

The dirt field of the little Bitter Hill Village had never been soaked with the blood of so many high and mighty Guardians, especially an influential person like the young City Lord of Central City of Luoshen Ridge, who usually did not even take a glance at this place. But now, his life had come to an end on this little dirt field.

After a full ten seconds.

“No... My son...” Zhang Longcheng, as though he had awakened from a dream, suddenly emitted a roar of anger like a beast, blood in his eyes, glowering at Ye Qingyu, “You're dead, you...”

“That's what I was going to say to you.”

Ye Qingyu took a step forward and pointed out one finger.

In an instant, there were Dao sounds rising secretly and laws surging in the void.

A magnificent force pressed down at Zhang Longcheng.

At this time, Ye Qingyu had recognized that Zhang Longcheng was one of the murderers who killed Ren Puyang. Therefore he directly took action and did not waste time taking to these scum.

In truth, even if Ye Qingyu did not need to avenge Ren Puyang, he still wouldn’t have been able to restrain his murderous intent. Based on the violent crimes that Zhang Longcheng had committed, including the killing of the black-haired Dark Ones and allowing his men to catch slaves to kill, a ruler like him already deserved to die.

Given Ye Qingyu's strength, he could follow his heart's desires and do as he pleased. He did not need to worry about the so-called Guardian camp and the power of the law. He only needed to adhere to his own beliefs.

In Ye Qingyu’s heart, these black-haired Dark Ones were part of the Human Race.

Since it was a matter of the Human Race, he naturally would take care of it.

The Dao sounds were faintly discernible.

Between heaven and earth there was a majestic force surging.

And following Ye Qingyu's move, Zhang Longcheng's anger was as though extinguished by a bucket of ice water all of a sudden.

A horrified expression came onto his face.

For he immediately felt the terror of the power that was coming head-on, which was not an attack that he, someone who was infinity near the Quasi-emperor realm, could defend against. He realized that the young man, who had long red hair and was dressed in a flame red battle robe, should be a Quasi-emperor existence.

At this moment, he had completely forgotten about the death of his son, but also had no time to think over why a high and mighty Quasi-emperor would come to bring trouble to him.

“Elder Xu Shaohua...”

Zhang Longcheng, like a snail fallen into a swamp, triggered his strength in a desperate struggle, and then screamed for help.

Xu Shaohua’s figure flashed, shielding Zhang Longcheng at the critical moment.

The esteemed Quasi-emperor master had an extremely solemn expression on his face, knees slightly bent, and lifted both hands up from the waist. His left hand drew an arc in a clockwise direction and his right hand drew an arc in the opposite. It was evidently some kind of extremely terrifying technique. A yin and yang pattern suddenly emerged from his abdomen, vibrating rapidly and launched out.

Boom!

Dao sounds rumbled.

But there was no power dissipating.

None of the people around them were affected.

Xu Shaohua reeled back four of five steps, spewed out blood, the glow on his face rapidly changing, and then a scorching hot breath gushed out from his mouth, nose, eyes and ears. This was the scorching hot qi that had entered into his body, which he dispelled.

And opposite him, Ye Qingyu still wore an indifferent expression.

With one move, the winner and loser was decided.

Zhang Longcheng felt that his heart had instantly froze.

He was also a top expert of martial arts, and was one step away from the Quasi-emperor realm. He knew more than anyone else what effect the small gap between the two great Quasi-emperor's on the surface had in the process of deciding on the final outcome of the battle.

“You... who are you?” Zhang Longcheng asked in shock and anger.

He appeared fierce but was cowering inwardly.

“It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that you have to die.” Ye Qingyu slowly moved closer, saying, “From now on, I will rule the Luoshen Ridge, I will open up a new era here... The Dark Realm has been quiet for too long, and the present Luoshen Ridge is already deteriorating, like a ditch filled with bugs and maggots, requiring cleaning and tidying up with the power of flames.”
