Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 800: Capturing the Living Sacrifice
Chapter 800: Chapter 800: Capturing the Living Sacrifice
Swoosh... swoosh... swoosh...
One figure after another landed.
The arrivals, all with extraordinary momentum and astonishing aura.
"Sect Master."
"Sect Leader."
"City Lord."
"Commandery Prince."
"Great Elder."
"..."
Voices of joy emerged from the oppressed martial artists around them.
The Boiling Volcano had drawn nearly all the major figures within tens of thousands of miles.
"Break!" roared one after another from these newly landed experts.
The martial artists who had been suppressed all regained their freedom.
"What’s going on? Where’s the Earth Core Flame Fruit? Has the fight for it not started yet?" the experts from various forces quickly inquired among their own martial artists.
The desirability of the Earth Core Flame Fruit was enough to make any martial artist envious.
Meanwhile, following the loud shouts of two old men from the Fire Intent Sect,
And the icy gaze of a Fire Intent Sect elder towards Xiao Yi,
The gaze of all the experts on the scene, all at once, turned sharply to focus on Xiao Yi.
"All three Earth Core Flame Fruits have been taken by this kid?"
"No wonder the Holy Mountain grew angry, and the Boiling Fire Lizards surged out in swarms."
A few Sect Masters commented coldly.
On the other side,
Around the Fire Intent Sect, a group of about a dozen people appeared.
A middle-aged man, leading roughly a dozen elders.
The middle-aged man was the Fire Intent Sect Master, and the remaining elders were all elders of the sect.
"Sect Master," said Qin Hongyi, looking at the Fire Intent Sect Master, "hurry and snatch back the Earth Core Flame Fruit."
"Otherwise, once we’re surrounded by the Boiling Fire Lizards, we’ll be in trouble."
The middle-aged man, who was the Fire Intent Sect Master, waved his hand and said, "No worries."
"As long as the three Earth Core Flame Fruits are not in the hands of one person, the Boiling Fire Lizards will retreat soon."
"Before that..."
The Fire Intent Sect Master’s gaze turned to Xiao Yi, "Kid, I’d like to ask who your family is."
"At such a young age, with such strength and courage to compete,"
"Didn’t your family elders teach you the rules? In the struggles within the Boiling Volcano, aside from the surrounding hundreds of forces, no other force within the territory of the Wind Saint Empire is allowed to intervene."
"Two Heavenly Extreme Realm," Xiao Yi looked at the Fire Intent Sect Master, not responding, but after sensing briefly, he muttered to himself.
"Sect Master, this kid doesn’t care about rules," Qin Hongyi said coldly from the side.
"When he first came to the Boiling Volcano, he attempted to fly, only to be blasted down by the flames of the Holy Mountain."
"Afterward, he even dared try to pick the Fire Heart Grass here."
"Finally, he disregarded the rules and brazenly snatched three Earth Core Flame Fruits..."
Qin Hongyi briefly recounted the previous events.
As Qin Hongyi’s voice fell,
The nearby experts from various forces looked at Xiao Yi with increasingly hostile eyes.
"Repeated offenses against the Holy Mountain, even if you are backed by a great force, my Fire Xuan Sect will not spare you."
"I, from the Jiu Huo County, along with all the martial artists, will not let you off either."
Some Sect Masters and Commandery Princes already showed signs of murderous intent.
Qin Hongyi scoffed and looked at the Fire Intent Sect Master, saying, "Sect Master, this brat has repeatedly offended the mountain."
"He took advantage of our weakened state, suppressed forcefully, practiced despicable acts."
"To top it off, he rudely snatched away three Earth Core Flame Fruits without regard for the rules."
"Such disrespectful, base, and greedy behavior, I propose we take him down immediately and offer a live sacrifice to the Holy Mountain."
"How dare you!" Cheng Suyan snapped coldly from the side.
"Qin Hongyi, what, do you think your Fire Intent Sect is now the head of all the major forces?"
"How to decide, you make decisions on behalf of all the Sect Masters, Sect Leaders, and experts?"
Qin Hongyi scoffed, "Sister Suyan, there’s no need to pin labels on me."
"Everyone saw what happened before."
"You’ve been helping that kid all along."
"Simply put, you’re in cahoots."
"Otherwise, what are you doing standing beside that kid?"
"You..." Cheng Suyan’s face turned cold.
"Nonsense." Not far away, a middle-aged man rebuked sharply, "Suyan, come back."
The speaker was the Huoli Sect Master.
"Sect Master..." Cheng Suyan clenched her silver teeth.
"Come back," the Huoli Sect Master chastised.
Around them, various experts also spoke with cold voices, "Cheng Suyan, we’ll overlook this considering you’re a martial artist from our side, withdraw immediately."
"Furthermore, what Qin Hongyi meant just now is also our consensus."
"Seize this lad immediately, take the Earth Core Flame Fruit from him to repel the Boiling Fire Lizard."
"And, let him be a living sacrifice to quell the wrath of the Holy Mountain."
"You all..." Cheng Suyan wanted to say something.
Xiao Yi glanced at her and said, "Go back."
Having said that, Xiao Yi looked at the experts surrounding him.
"Capture me? A living sacrifice?"
"You speak so righteously, but if your eyes weren’t fixed on the Earth Core Flame Fruit in my hand while saying this, perhaps I would think more highly of you."
Indeed, no matter what murderous or furious words the surrounding experts were speaking, their gazes always lingered on the Universe Ring on Xiao Yi’s finger.
"How presumptuous," a Commandery Prince rebuked coldly, "You impudent brat, dare to speak so rudely?"
"Although I don’t know which great power’s scion you are."
"Yet, no one can withstand the full wrath of the hundreds of powers surrounding the Boiling Volcano."
"No..." Just at that moment, a cold rebuke rang out.
"To be precise, it’s just this lad who can’t withstand our wrath."
"Hmm?" The surrounding experts all turned to look at the Fire Intent Sect Master.
The one who had just spoken was indeed the Fire Intent Sect Master.
At this moment, the Fire Intent Sect Master stared at Xiao Yi with a mocking smirk on his face.
"Lad, you’ve been recklessly bold since arriving at the Holy Mountain."
"If I’m not mistaken, it’s not that you disregard the rules, but that you simply don’t know them."
"Within the territory of the Wind Saint Empire, there’s no one who doesn’t know of the Boiling Volcano, and there’s no major power that doesn’t know the rules here."
"You have no major power backing you."
The words of the Fire Intent Sect Master dropped.
The surrounding experts’ faces lit up with glee, "Turns out he’s just some unknown brat that popped up out of nowhere."
"We needn’t be concerned then, capture him immediately."
Swoosh... swoosh... swoosh...
Several figures attacked swiftly.
Xiao Yi remained calm and unruffled as he slashed out with his Blizzard Sword.
The Sect Master who was the first to attack was instantly blown away by a single sword strike.
The few who came after were sent flying by Xiao Yi’s punch, vomiting blood and severely injured.
"So powerful," the countenances of the surrounding experts shifted.
"He does have some skill," the Fire Intent Sect Master sneered coldly from a distance, "However, a mere Earth Extreme Seventh Layer is far from enough to act recklessly here."
The Fire Intent Sect Master summoned a red flame in his hand.
Just as he was about to strike, an elder behind him suddenly changed his expression, "Sect Master, wait."
"Great Elder?" The Fire Intent Sect Master looked back at the elder.
The elder was the Great Elder of the Fire Intent Sect, an Extreme Realm Expert second only to the Sect Master.
"Sect Master," the elder spoke gravely, "This lad seems strangely familiar to me."
"Do you know him?" the Fire Intent Sect Master frowned.
"No," the elder shook his head, "But, I feel as if I’ve seen him somewhere before."
"Never mind that, let’s capture the lad first," the Fire Intent Sect Master said coldly.
"Take the Earth Core Flame Fruit from him, deal with the Boiling Fire Lizard later."
Having said that, the Fire Intent Sect Master struck in an instant.
Xiao Yi stood there, without a move.
Only when the attack from the Fire Intent Sect Master came did Xiao Yi punch out forcefully.
On his fist, lightning flickered.
At the same time, the Fire Intent Sect Great Elder’s expression changed once again as he exclaimed, "I remember now!"
"The Sword Dao Practitioner, the body cultivation expert, it’s him..."
"He is Xiao Yi, the fugitive that’s recently been wanted by the Wind Saint Empire."
"Sect Master, come back, that kid is feigning weakness to catch the strong unaware."
"Xiao Yi?" The Fire Intent Sect Master who was attacking Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.
Before he could react, a loud boom erupted.
The Fire Intent Sect Master spat out a mouthful of blood and was blasted away.
"Damn it, is it that Xiao Yi, the infamous little thief of recent times?" The Fire Intent Sect Master’s face turned deathly pale.
Second update.
