Chapter 239: What I Said When Falling off Cliff of Death

The sudden change alarmed everyone. Looking at their surroundings that were enclosed in a curtain of energy, everyone’s mood sank. Wen Canghai was a True Origin Realm warrior. With him enclosing us using his origin energy, none of us would be able to escape.

“Society Master Wen, what is the meaning of this? Are you thinking of killing us and robbing the spirit weapon refining materials? Do you know how many pairs of eyes had witnessed us entering your Divine Sword Society? There were also three Qingyun League members here. After killing us, you won’t to bear the consequences that will come when Qingyun League investigates their deaths later,” said the bald big guy as an astounding aura roiled out of him. This was the specialty of an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior – freezing ordinary warriors in place with their aura alone. Unfortunately, this aura was worthless against Wen Canghai.

“You guys are my harvest after two years of hard work. Getting 10 refining materials in two years will definitely allow me to refine a new spirit weapon. This will increase my status once again, to the point even the emperor has to treat me with respect.”

Wen Canghai curled the corner of his lips up as he smiled, “This was how I had successfully forged my previous spirit weapon.”

The success rate of spirit weapon refining was very low. The lack of materials was in fact the reason many weapon refiners couldn’t refine a spirit weapon. This was unlike pill refining as an abundant of materials was available for pill refining purposes. If an alchemist failed his pill refining, he could keep refining. As for weapon refining, when one failed, one would be forced to stop and start gathering materials again.

Ye Mo leisurely walked up and took out the dragon spine from his storage ring. He indifferently spoke, “Society Master Wen, I will voluntarily offer up my material. But I have something I need to tell you.”

“This is a smart league member. What do you want to tell me?”

Wen Canghai nodded in satisfaction when he saw that Ye Mo was voluntarily giving up the material.

Ye Mo took the Blueflame Sword off his back and offered it up to Wen Canghai, “Do you recognize this weapon?”

“A spirit weapon?”

Wen Canghai’s pupil shrunk and spoke in disbelief, “He… he had actually successfully refined the Blueflame Sword? How is that possible? How is it possible for him to succeed in one try?”

“Since you know this weapon, you should also know where I came from. I hope I can have a good talk with you,” Ye Mo said.

“Talk? What is there to talk?” Wen Canghai appeared somewhat agitated as he shouted, “Hadn’t he told you to show me this weapon to prove that he surpasses me in weapon refining? It doesn’t matter. So long as I can refine a second spirit weapon, I will surpass him.”

“He is dead. Everyone in the Sword Whisper Manor is dead,” Ye Mo said with a sigh.

“What?”

Wen Canghai’s expression shifted. He reached out and formed an energy palm that grabbed onto Ye Mo’s neck and yelled, “Kid, what did you say? Do you dare repeat it?”

The Rising Dragon Pillar activated and with a shake of Ye Mo’s body, the energy palm dissipated into nothingness. This sight stunned everyone there.

“Are you interested to talk now?”

Wen Canghai stared at Ye Mo. Ye Mo had a weak aura. At best, he was an Energy Shaping Fourth Realm warrior. Yet he was giving off an unfathomable feeling.

“Follow me into the inner room. Everyone else, wait here,” Wen Canghai spoke and entered the inner room. Ye Mo followed behind him.

“Xue Xiu, should we run? We need to return to the league and report to the elders,” Li Tianhe asked.

“Wait and see.” Xue Xiu waved his hand and said, “That Ye Mo actually has a dragon spine as well. Isn’t that Song Yang’s dragon spine?”

When Ye Mo entered the inner room, the door closed. With a wave of Wen Canghai’s hand, all the windows of the room closed as well. Then, he sighed and spoke with a deep tone, “Is it because of the Yin Poison Society?”

“Yes.” Ye Mo proceeded to tell Wen Canghai everything that had happened.

“Big brother!” Wen Canghai clenched his fists tightly.

“Take it.”

Ye Mo passed the Blueflame Sword to Wen Canghai and said, “Take it. The Sword Whisper Manor needs you. I hope a day will come when the Sword Whisper Manor reappears in its full glory. A true weapon refining technique is one where a person uses all his heart in refinement. If you need anything in the future, feel free to look for me. I might still be weak now, but in the future, I will be an expert of the Tianwu Kingdom. I will be an incredibly powerful expert.”

Ye Mo smiled faintly and left the inner room.

“Big Brother Ye Mo, how are you so sure that he will return to Sword Whisper Manor?” Ling’er woke up from her slumber and asked curiously.

“Intuition.”

Ye Mo’s intuition was indeed accurate. Wen Canghai ended up releasing everyone and the next day, he brought everyone from Divine Sword Society back to Sword Whisper Manor. As for how much Sword Whisper Manor could recover, it was still unknown for now.

However, Ye Mo was in no rush to return to the league. Rather, he behaved oddly and left Tianhe City. Looking at the two following behind him, he sneered. With a flicker, his body flashed and vanished into the forest.

“Why did Ye Mo left the city?”

Xue Xiu and Li Tianhe who was following him were doubtful. However, they did not put much thought into it. Exerting force into their legs, they dashed into the forest as well.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two figures appeared at an open ground and started scanning their surroundings.

“What’s going on? He’s obviously here. Why had he gone missing?” Xue Xiu asked doubtfully. With their speed, they had actually failed to catch up with Ye Mo.

“Do you think you can tail me with just the two of you?”

A voice filled with disdain sounded. Ye Mo appeared on a branch, contempt on his face.

“Tailing you?”

Li Tianhe sneered and said, “Time for confession. Where did you get the dragon spine you took out previously? That was the material we had divided between the three of us. Song Yang and the rest had all died at Skyburn Mountain Range, while their corpse had also been gnawed on by a group of corpses. However, the league is suspecting that their deaths weren’t due to the corpses. With the strength of the corpses, they would never be able to kill Song Yang. The only possibility is that he had been killed by another human. The league is suspecting the Tiandi and Wushuang Leagues, but now that I looked at it, the killer must have been you instead.”

“Li Tianhe, that Ye Mo is now an Energy Shaping Third Realm warrior. It is quite possible that he’s indeed the killer.” Xue Xiu fixed his gaze on Ye Mo.

Li Tianhe clasped his hands on his back. He looked at Ye Mo with a sharp gaze and said, “Ye Mo, tell the truth. Are you the killer of Song Yang? If you refuse to tell the truth, we will capture and interrogate you to force the truth out of you. When we’re done, we will hand you over to the higher ups. This incident had already caused an uproar. Even the emperor is already aware of this.”

As far as Ye Mo was concerned, Song Yang was but an ordinary individual. He had no idea how this had alarmed even the emperor.

“That dragon spine is something I picked up at Skyburn Mountain Range,” Ye Mo answered with a deep tone.

“Bullshit!” Xue Xiu shouted coldly before continuing furiously, “Ye Mo, the dragon spine was hidden in Song Yang’s storage ring. How could you have picked it up? Song Yang is an Inner League member of Jinxiu Sub-league. If they found out about this, we won’t have to do anything. Their Elite League members will kill you. You will then be an enemy of all three major sub-leagues. You will no longer be able to stay in Qingyun League.”

“No longer be able to stay? Xue Xiu, do you remember what I told you when I was falling off the Cliff of Death back then?”

Killing intent covered Ye Mo’s face.
