The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 1149 - 1150: The Seal Within

At this moment, the man faced the unusual gazes of the crowd without any fear and managed a bitter smile: "I, Hou Qinglong, dare say my cultivation talent is no less than Lin Yufeng’s. If I hadn’t been born under less favorable circumstances, how could Lin Yufeng have snatched away the woman I love?"

"Hmph, some people’s fates are predetermined at birth. Just like you, no matter how hard you try, you can’t compare to even a single strand of Mister Lin’s hair. Mister Lin is the genius who helped Ye Mo win the championship, while you’re just a punk who can only complain here. If you’re so capable, go to the East Dragon Sect."

The man who idolized Lin Yufeng laughed coldly, "A waste is a waste. Just the strength of a Transcendence Ninth Realm Body, you can’t even defeat me and you dream of competing with Mister Lin."

Upon hearing this, Hou Qinglong’s face turned crimson. He knew that the man in front of him also possessed the strength of a Transcendence Ninth Realm Body, but he was absolutely no match for him. The elixirs he consumed during cultivation were too few, and the quality of his True Yuan far inferior. Even if he charged forward to fight, he would be seeking a beating.

"What’s wrong? Don’t dare to make a move? Since you don’t dare, let me teach you how to behave!"

The man’s body moved, and in an instant, he was in front of Hou Qinglong, gathering a massive amount of True Yuan in his hand and bringing it down towards Hou Qinglong. Hou Qinglong’s expression changed, and he crossed his hands in front of his chest.

"Die, waste!"

The man shouted loudly, but before his palm could fall, he felt his body freeze as if pressed into a steel plate, completely immobile.

"What’s going on?"

The man was astonished; never in his time training had such a thing occurred.

Seeing this, Hou Qinglong was initially stunned, then punched the man’s head, knocking him out, sending him flying away.

"What is going on?"

Hou Qinglong was also somewhat puzzled.

"He hit our boss, let’s get him together!"

Seeing this, the man’s companions were furious, smashing the tables of the inn as they charged at Hou Qinglong.

"You people, if you’re going to fight, take it outside. Don’t disturb us while we’re eating."

Ye Mo said calmly.

As his voice fell, their gaze slowly turned, and then they saw Ye Mo standing up slowly.

"Who are you? If you don’t want to die, get lost. We are from the Ximen Clan."

The group, seeing Ye Mo and noticing his youth, all wore cold smiles in their eyes.

The Ximen Clan, Youlan Sky Estate, and Bamboo Forest Fort are the three major powers of the Southern region; anyone from the Southern region, hearing the name Ximen Clan, would be frightened.

"The Ximen Clan, eh? I recall somewhat."

Ye Mo laughed coldly, "But since you’ve disturbed my meal, you’ll have to leave."

With a gentle wave of Ye Mo’s arm, a powerful gust of wind swept through, and the whole group crashed through the walls, flying out.

People around, who had been gloating, quickly took back their gazes, sensing that the strength of the man before them was exceedingly formidable.

"Thank you, brother, for your timely assistance!"

Hou Qinglong immediately bowed in gratitude, and he could feel that the man before him was incredibly powerful, far beyond his imagination. The earlier strange scene might very well have been his doing.

Ye Mo looked at Hou Qinglong and found him somewhat familiar, for he noticed that the other’s appearance bore a resemblance to his own.

"If you want to win back Xia Shiyun, come with me!"

With that, Ye Mo started walking down from the inn, and Zi Xuan put down a Wheel of Reincarnation Pill, leaving the inn as well.

Hou Qinglong hesitated for a moment but eventually decided to follow Ye Mo.

"When is the East Dragon Sect coming to marry Xia Shiyun?"

As they walked along the road, Ye Mo asked calmly.

"In three days."

Hou Qinglong gritted his teeth and replied.

"Three days, huh?"

Ye Mo frowned, not wanting to intervene personally. This matter naturally had to be handled by Hou Qinglong himself. However, with only the strength of a Transcendence Ninth Realm Body, even if given a month of cultivation in the Space-Time Badge, reaching the level to defeat Lin Yufeng would be impossible.

With a sweep of his large hand, Ye Mo used the Technique of Interchangeability, and the next moment, the three appeared in a spacious location.

"Hou Qinglong, to be honest with you, I am a friend of Xia Shiyun. I’ll help you enhance your strength as much as possible, even if you can’t reach the level to rival Lin Yufeng, you need to have surprising improvement."

In three days, if a Martial Artist suddenly advanced from the strength of a Transcendence Ninth Realm Body to the Profound Heaven Realm, or even the Cosmos Realm, it would absolutely shock everyone. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"You are Ye Mo?"

Hou Qinglong tentatively asked.

"Yes."

Ye Mo nodded, not denying it.

"Indeed, Shiyun often mentioned you to me."

Hou Qinglong said.

"Oh? Aren’t you angry?"

Ye Mo asked curiously.

"Hehe, when I saw your appearance, I realized you somewhat resemble me. You also mentioned you are a friend of Shiyun, so I guessed you were Ye Mo."

Hou Qinglong said calmly, "Initially, Shiyun indeed treated me as your shadow, but my dedication gradually replaced your stature. I wanted to see just how outstanding the man she kept thinking of is. Now it seems I’m indeed not as good."

"Zi Xuan, looks like we’ll need to delay our plans for three days."

Ye Mo said.

"Three days it is; even if it were three months, it wouldn’t matter. We could just go to the Bodhi Cave then."

Zi Xuan said nonchalantly, as long as she could be with Ye Mo.

Ye Mo nodded, sweeping his large hand to envelop Hou Qinglong into the space of the Space-Time Badge, immediately saying, "I’ll now cleanse your muscles and bones, and initiate an awakening to enhance your physique."

Ye Mo overturned his large hand, pressing it against the top of the other’s head, and a powerful stream of Tomb Dragon Power poured into Hou Qinglong’s body. Ye Mo sensed that Hou Qinglong’s body was far below average, with numerous impurities.

"Hmm?"

As Ye Mo helped Hou Qinglong with the cleansing, he noticed a formidable seal deep within the other’s energy center, seeming to seal something within.

"It seems a powerful individual sealed all their cultivation within his energy center, but he still seems unaware!"

Ye Mo was greatly surprised; if the strong individual who sealed their cultivation was a Wheel of Reincarnation Realm master, Hou Qinglong would potentially surpass Lin Yufeng in a month.

"Hou Qinglong, it seems there’s a seal within your body. Do you remember encountering an unusual old man?"

Ye Mo withdrew his hand, asking in astonishment.

"An unusual old man?"

Hou Qinglong seemed to fall into deep thought; then, he suddenly realized and exclaimed: "When I was young, I met a strange old man, with long hair, one black and one white, dressed oddly. He said he wasn’t from Lingwu Continent and wanted to teach me Artifact Refining Technique. At the time, I was young and thought he was a lunatic, but he kept following me until one day I woke up, and he died in front of me. Pitying him, I buried him."

"Long hair, one black and one white, could it be Ancestor Wuji?"

Hong Ling and the Wraith Demon Emperor were both shocked.
