I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 81 I already have someone I hate.

Faced with the pressure from a genuine master-level martial artist, Yuan Hao remained calm and said, "There's been a small problem, the experiment needs to be temporarily suspended."

"A minor problem?"

Song Yanhai laughed angrily, "Do you know what's going on? If I hadn't stepped in to cover for you, you and your men would have been wiped out by the Martial Arts Association long ago! And now you've caused me such a huge mess!"

"Why should Master Song get angry? The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. If the Song family wants to regain its past glory in the new era, a little risk is actually acceptable."

Yuan Hao maintained his unhurried demeanor: "This time, the main reason for the failed capture was that Ye Qingzhou's strength exceeded our expectations. But don't worry, the Source Blood Society will send experts soon, and then we'll be able to ensure everything goes smoothly."

"The Bloodline Society?"

Song Yanhai's eyes turned cold as he stared intently at Yuan Hao: "Why does this matter involve the Western Extremity Kingdom's organization? I don't want to get involved with these lunatics."

Yuan Hao scoffed, "Master Song, what are you pretending to be so righteous for now? The Eastern Pole Kingdom has long since banned bloodline modification. Currently, only the Western Pole Kingdom and the European Union still allow this technological approach. Where do you think my initial experimental data and funding came from?"

Song Yanhai had long suspected this.

Alas, people die for wealth, and birds die for food.

The Eastern Kingdom intends to cultivate martial arts practitioners from the common people and suppress martial arts families that stick together. People like Song Yanhai will naturally not sit idly by and wait for their doom.

So even if it's risky, he's willing to try and see if he can break through his current level.

If they could gain the combat power of Qi Shengtian and Zhang Xinwu through bloodline modification experiments, why would the Song family have to act according to the whims of others?

Seeing this, Yuan Hao finally smiled and said, "Master Song, martial arts have no borders. As long as you get what you want in the end, what does it matter which side you stand on?"

Song Yanhai snorted coldly: "Let's talk about it when you actually succeed. The current Dragon Blood Potion has no effect on master-level martial artists."

"That's why I need Ye Qingzhou's blood. He must hold the answer I'm looking for."

Yuan Hao's gaze was intense, and burning in his eyes was a fire called ambition.

After leaving the Song family, Yuan Hao drove to the suburbs and into an old villa with mottled walls.

The gate slowly opened, and Yang Da and Wei Qiang came out to greet them.

"Have all the equipment and materials been moved over?"

Wei Qiang was born deaf and mute. He can read lips, but he cannot speak.

Therefore, it was Yang Da who spoke up: "It's all arranged, but Xiao Xinxin's emotions are very unstable, and she almost ruined two more subjects."

The old villa was built a century and a half ago during a time of frequent wars, so a basement was specially dug under the villa.

With just a few modifications, this place can be transformed into a secret laboratory.

Stepping into the basement, the stench of formaldehyde filled the air. Then, there were several freezers haphazardly arranged, their shapes remarkably similar to coffins. Inside lay the very "materials" that Yang Da had mentioned.

Each and every one of them is a living, breathing person.

Among them were Cen Chunhui and Song Li, who were suspected of being missing. These two unlucky guys were captured during wilderness survival training.

At this moment, the two men's eyes were lifeless, like puppets on strings, as they fought each other with complete absorption.

Despite their wounds reaching the bone and their bodies being covered in blood, they showed no sign of stopping.

Yuan Hao walked over to Li Yanxin, patted the little girl's head, and soothed her: "Stop playing. If you keep playing like this, you'll kill them both. The martial arts association is keeping a close eye on things outside, and it's not easy to find material."

Li Yanxin, dressed in a black dress, moved her fingers wildly, and invisible threads between her fingers were now connected to Cen Chunhui and Song Li.

Her expression was fierce yet endearing. She bit her lip and cursed, "Ye Qingzhou, I hate you! I want you dead!"

After saying that, he manipulated Cen Chunhui and Song Li to fight even more fiercely, until their arms were severed and fell to the ground.

Yuan Hao shook his head and sighed, just as he was about to clean up the mess for Li Yanxin, when he heard a familiar whisper in his ear.

"Oh? You hate me? Too bad, I already have someone I hate."

"Ye Qingzhou!!!"

Yuan Hao suddenly turned around, his face showing a look of astonishment and panic: "How did you find this place?!"

Ye Qingzhou's figure slowly emerged from the shadows. His perfected Yin aura made him appear like a ghost in the night, his presence concealed and difficult to detect.

Ye Qingzhou smiled, pointed at Li Yanxin, and then at Yuan Hao: "I left two sword intents on you, otherwise why would I have let you go during the day?"

Cast a long line to catch a big fish!

At this moment, Yuan Hao understood perfectly well that Ye Qingzhou hadn't pursued them because he wanted to find his own stronghold and resolve all the troubles once and for all.

Great!

Yuan Hao was filled with regret. He had never expected that a young man like Ye Qingzhou would be so cunning and shrewd, leaving no room for error.

Ye Qingzhou, however, remained calm and composed: "So, you have the Song family of Linjiang and that so-called Source Blood Society standing behind you?"

"Now that you know my background is not simple, you should understand that killing me will not do you any good."

"Heh, but not killing you would be bad for me."

Ye Qingzhou's expression was indifferent, and his light-hearted words revealed a chilling killing intent: "Moreover, I don't care about offending the forces and organizations behind you. Anyway, I can kill them all eventually, slowly and deliberately."

"you!!!"

Yuan Hao wanted to speak, but the brilliant sword light of the Dragon Abyss Sword had already completely swallowed his figure.

Before his consciousness completely dissipated, Yuan Hao seemed to hear a dragon's roar that reverberated through the river of time, reaching the heavens and earth, shaking the ages, just like a rolling wheel crushing a tiny mantis, annihilating and shattering his soul.

Seemingly because it had recently been nourished by Ye Qingzhou's sword intent, the Dragon Abyss Sword had recovered some of its power, and the Dragon Ascension Sword it unleashed was so powerful that even Ye Qingzhou was surprised.

Gazing at Yuan Hao's fallen corpse, Ye Qingzhou gently stroked the divine weapon in his hand: "No wonder everyone wants a peerless divine weapon; it truly possesses a captivating power."

However, Ye Qingzhou still firmly believes that what is truly powerful is always people, not weapons.

While powerful weapons are desirable, personal improvement is the true path to success.

Holding the Dragon Abyss sword, Ye Qingzhou turned around to look at Yang Da and Wei Qiang, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, as well as Li Yanxin, a gothic-style little girl with a fierce yet adorable face.

"Have you all decided how you want to die?"

Ye Qingzhou gave the three of them a hearty smile, but his two rows of snow-white teeth, under the moonlight, sent chills down their spines.

"Split up and run!"

Yang Da swayed her slender waist and turned to leave without hesitation.

The moment he saw Yuan Hao's body on the ground, he knew that staying meant certain death.
