Ye Mo let out a sigh of relief as soon as the two men disappeared into the forest.

“Hey, beautiful. Smile a bit, will ya?” Ye Mo teased.

“Don’t try and flirt with me, little kid. I know you’re just playing with them,” Cai Ling said without any expression and ignored Ye Mo’s teasing. “But I can’t deny the fact that you just saved me. I will definitely repay the debt.”

“You sure are smart, City Lord,” Ye Mo said as he stowed the greatsword into the Dimensional Bracelet. “Looks like you saw through my disguise.”

“Knowledge is also a part of my powers,” Cai Ling said and sighed. “The cuffs on me are the Beast Cuff. It can only be broken by a Spiritual Weapon or opened with a key. I hope that you can escort me back to the Women City. Even if you’re just a Spirit Cultivating Fifth Realm warrior, we should be able to survive back to the city with your cunning wits.”

That cunning wit is also part of knowledge, right? Ye Mo laughed at Cai Ling’s words.

“Oh no!” Cai Ling’s expression suddenly changed as she shouted. “They’ve found out that you are fake! Hurry up and run!”

Two people landed in front of Ye Mo.

“You little brat!” the skinny man scolded. “You almost tricked us! How dare you impersonate a True Energy Realm warrior? A True Energy Realm warrior can emit shocking energy from his body naturally, but we did not feel any of that from you! You’re just a kid that happened to pass by! Trying to save the beauty in the Pleasure Valley, are you?”

“I’ll teach you what happens to people who oppose the Pleasure Valley!” the short-hair man shouted. “I’ll destroy your cultivation, make you swallow the Pleasure Pill, and feed you to the women to enjoy!”

As its name described, the Pleasure Valley was a place for people to enjoy pleasure, a wonderful place to train in the Sex Cultivation.

“Let him go,” Cai Ling sighed. “I’ll follow you.”

“No!” the skinny man replied. “He’d just make fun of us! We’ll have to kill him, or else we’ll be the joke of the whole valley!”

“It’s been five days since I last killed an Energy Shaping Realm warrior, I think I’m becoming rusty,” Ye Mo said as the Formation-Breaking Spear appeared in his right hand. “Both of you could’ve ran away safely, but instead, both of you chose to try and kill me. Looks like I’ll have to end both of your lives.”

“Killed an Energy Shaping Realm warrior? What a joke!” the skinny man laughed, and his energy exploded. He jumped 30 feet into the air and thrust his palm towards Ye Mo.

His movements were sleek and smooth without any hesitation.

Cai Ling sighed and looked at Ye Mo but didn’t find even a hint of fear on his face. She was intrigued whether Ye Mo really did have the power to fight an Energy Shaping Realm warrior.

Purple lights flashed where Ye Mo was standing, and he disappeared. Another flash occurred, and this time Ye Mo appeared in front of the skinny man.

Ye Mo swept his leg like a dragon swinging his tail, aiming at the skinny man’s waist. The man raised his arm and tried to block the kick as the waist was the weakest part of the human body.

It was as if the kick had crushed the air as Ye Mo landed a blow on the skinny man’s arm. A vast amount of energy charged through the man’s body, and before he could even react, he was sent flying horizontally, crashing into a huge tree.

With 60 Dragon Energies enhancing all five of Ye Mo’s Mortal Gates, he was much stronger and faster than any Half-Energy Shaping Realm warrior, and with the Rank One Dragon Energy Blood reinforcing his defense, no Half-Energy Shaping Realm warrior could harm him.

Ye Mo did not give the skinny man any time to get up. He thrust the Formation-Breaking Spear and evoked the Twin Dragon Emerging from the Ocean with the Will of Sky Blood Spear. A hint of red appeared on the dark spear and inched towards the skinny man.

“Run!” the short hair man shouted as he knew he didn’t have time to save his partner.

Just as the skinny man was about to stand, agonized screams echoed around him as his surroundings were dyed blood red as if he was in a living hell. He looked at the incoming attack but could only see a woman dressed in silver armor wielding the spear.

It was the Sky Blood Lady.

“No!” the skinny man shouted just before the spear impaled his head, and his head exploded along with the tree behind him.

The Evil Merging Realm of the Will of Sky Blood Spear, a realm of will so powerful that it could cause its victims to see illusions.

Both Cai Ling and the short-haired man looked at Ye Mo in shock. They thought the skinny man would have time to evade the attack, but instead, he sat there and did nothing.

Only the person who was the target of the Will of Sky Blood Spear could witness its devastating power.

“We could’ve ended this without any casualties,” Ye Mo turned and said to the short-haired man. “Now that I’ve killed your companion, I have no choice but to kill you too.”

“Not good!” the short hair man gasped and ran. He was weaker than his companion. If the skinny man had died in just two moves when facing Ye Mo, he would’ve died in just one.

“Trying to escape, are we?” Ye Mo said. He held the spear with both of his arms as the energy around it turned into a Water Dragon. It was as if the spear was diving under the ocean as it thrust forward, splitting the short-haired man in half.

“Water Dragon Emerging from the Ocean!” Ye Mo shouted.

Half-Energy Shaping Realm warriors can shape a portion of their energy. They were the pinnacles of the Spirit Cultivating Realm, yet Ye Mo’s power was already in between the Half-Energy Shaping Realm and the Energy Shaping First Realm. To Ye Mo, killing any of them was just like a stroll in the park.

Plus, the two men were weaker than Man Hu.

Ye Mo put the Formation-Breaking Spear away into the Dimensional Bracelet as Cai Ling stared at Ye Mo in awe. She could not believe that Ye Mo was able to achieve a feat like that as just a 15 years old kid.

Is he an Energy Shaping Realm warrior? At such a young age? Even thinking of it makes my hairs stand!

Even though Cai Ling’s powers were sealed by the Beast Cuff, she was still able to detect energies with her unusually strong Spiritual Energy. She could feel that Ye Mo was indeed a Spirit Cultivating Fifth Realm warrior, and she’d also seen people defeating warriors a few levels stronger than them.

But what Ye Mo had just achieved was defeating warriors one realm stronger than himself.

“Which big clan are you from? What are you doing in the Pleasure Valley?” Cai Ling asked as she believed that only disciples from big clans could achieve the feat that she’d just witnessed.

“I’m from the Limestone City,” Ye Mo said. “I’m actually headed to your Women City in search of the Goddess’s Tear.”

“I see,” Cai Ling said. “The Goddess’s Tear is indeed our sacred object. If you can escort me safely back to the Women City, I’ll give you a chance to get your hands on it.”
