I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 96 How can you sleep so soundly at such a young age?

"Daiqi".

"Team... Captain..."

"What's going on? Why do you sound so flustered? Where's the target? Has he been captured? When can we bring him back?"

"There's...there's been a slight mishap."

"Huh? What exactly happened? Stop beating around the bush and tell me clearly."

"The mission...failed..."

"Why did you fail? Did you encounter an ambush from a martial arts master from the Eastern Pole Kingdom?"

"No, it's Ye Qingzhou..."

Then, Dai Qi, her voice trembling, recounted what had happened to Cecil.

Upon learning that the viper he had painstakingly induced to mutate had now become Ye Qingzhou's pet, and realizing that he was the transport captain Cecil, he was momentarily speechless.

Gan ah!

Despite it being a sure thing, with the Tyrant Black Serpent, a master-level fighter, launching a powerful attack, it was actually countered by Ye Qingzhou's martial arts skills?

"Are you sure Ye Qingzhou's speed broke the sound barrier?"

"I'm certain, I saw it with my own eyes."

Daiqi's answer made Cecil put on a mask of pain, and he understood why the mission had failed: "It seems that we still underestimated the strength of the target. You should take your men and retreat for now."

"I understand..."

Before he could even utter a reply, Ye Qingzhou's figure descended from the sky: "Found you, you little mouse hiding in the gutter."

"Ye Qingzhou!"

Dai Qi's face showed a look of utter horror: "Didn't you leave along the highway?"

"Heh, how could I fool you if I didn't put on an act?"

Ye Qingzhou said with a cold laugh.

He had been pretending to continue on his way, but as soon as he was out of Daiqi's sight, he immediately used the Tyrant Black Serpent to control a swarm of snakes to search for Daiqi's whereabouts.

Because Dai Qi had also been injected with the dragon blood potion, her pheromones were like a guiding light in the eyes of snakes, shining brightly wherever she went and attracting their attention.

Clang~

The sound of a sword rang in her ears, and Dai Qi had already discovered that her right hand had vanished.

"Wait, Ye Qingzhou, you can't kill me!"

In this life-or-death situation, Dai Qi disregarded her pride and quickly invoked her status as a member of the Western Extremity Kingdom's embassy stationed in the Eastern Extremity Kingdom: "I have diplomatic immunity; you can't kill me!"

Ye Qingzhou shook his head speechlessly: "Are you kidding me? This is a life-or-death situation, and you're still trying to talk to me about laws and rules? You're crazy..."

Wind speed, lightning speed, Blazing Slash!

Without hesitation, Ye Qingzhou stepped forward and struck with his sword.

The dragon's horizontal slash cleaved Dai Qi's skull, and the high temperature and pressure even cooked her brains to a crisp.

Then Ye Qingzhou added another sword strike, splitting Dai Qi's body in two like chopping wood from top to bottom. Only after confirming that there was no life left in her body and that she was beyond dead did Ye Qingzhou sheath his sword.

Ye Qingzhou bent down, took off Dai Qi's Bluetooth earphone, and put it on his own ears: "Hello, can you hear me?"

"..."

After a long silence, Cecil's voice finally came through the earpiece: "You're Ye Qingzhou?"

"it's me."

"What did you do to Dai Qi?"

"He's dead."

"..."

Cecil gasped for breath upon hearing this; it was the first time he had ever seen someone so stubborn: "Do you know what you're doing? She's one of our Bloodline Society members."

"Oh, is source blood that amazing?"

Ye Qingzhou spoke calmly, treating the organization behind Cecil as nothing.

This feeling of being looked down upon deeply angered Cecil.

After all these years, is the reputation of the Bloodline Society so intimidating that it can't even intimidate a high school student?

"Young man, don't think that just because you have a little talent, you can be arrogant and ignorant. The world is vast beyond your imagination. And your recklessness will only bring disaster to you and those around you."

"Oh? You're threatening me?"

Ye Qingzhou let out a contemptuous sneer: "What a pity. I'm a cold-hearted person by nature. My father is missing, my mother remarried, and I have no relatives or friends. I'm all alone, with no ties. As for you, do you have any relatives or friends? If they were killed, would you die?"

Listening to Ye Qingzhou's emotionless words, even through the headphones, Cecil felt a chill run down his spine.

This goal is clearly different from any of the goals we've encountered before!

Ye Qingzhou has no weaknesses, which means that the Source Blood Society has very few ways to target him.

On the contrary, Ye Qingzhou has no taboos, and such a person is undoubtedly very scary.

Cecil crushed his phone, his expression a mixture of anger and uncertainty: "We can't let this threat continue to grow. Next time, I'll take action myself."

Although reluctant to admit it, Cecil did feel pressure from a high school student whose talent and temperament were simply too terrifying.

Once such a person matures, he might become another Zhang Xinwu!

"We must nip it in the bud!"

…………

"They actually hung up on me? That's incredibly rude."

Ye Qingzhou casually tossed aside the Bluetooth earphone in his hand. At this moment, the viper stretched out its huge head and rubbed against Ye Qingzhou, asking him if he could have half of Dai Qi's corpse on the ground.

If all else fails, one-third is acceptable.

In the eyes of the viper, the dragon breath fluctuations emanating from Ye Qingzhou were clearly a mark of the dragon race, and one that belonged to an extremely high-ranking being.

As the dragon is the head of all scaled creatures, Ye Qingzhou naturally enjoys the privilege of having priority in eating his prey.

Despite the fact that Dai Qi's corpse looked tiny compared to the serpent's size, seemingly not even enough to fill its teeth, Dai Qi, who had also been injected with a mid-level dragon blood potion, actually had a very high level of life energy within her.

It's just that she hasn't fully tapped into her potential yet.

The Dragon Blood Elixir contains the perfect flesh and blood of the Yinglong, which is an extremely nourishing substance for the viper, hence its intense desire and eagerness.

Ye Qingzhou was speechless: "You want me to eat people? Fine, you can eat them yourself. But let's make this clear first, you're not allowed to eat people without my orders."

The viper gleefully devoured Dai Qi's scattered corpse, along with the surrounding soil, and then nodded frantically at Ye Qingzhou, convinced that it had followed the right leader this time.

Following Boss Ye really means you'll get what you deserve!

As for the snake's claim that Boss Ye wouldn't let it eat people, it scoffed inwardly: 'Heh, what's so delicious about people? They barely have any meat on them, they don't taste good at all.'

As it digested the excess flesh and blood of the Yinglong, the wounds on the snake's body began to heal rapidly. Even the crest horn that Ye Qingzhou had previously cut off had grown back, and its hardness had increased significantly.

The tyrant serpent coiled up on the spot, intending to close its eyes and get a good night's sleep to digest the Yinglong's flesh and blood within its body and accelerate its transformation into a dragon.

Ye Qingzhou kicked him, saying, "What are you sleeping for? How can you sleep at such a young age? Get up and get to work. I have to rush to the assembly point for dinner."
