“The Phoenix Curse is about to be released, and yet the boy chose to remain by the Phoenix girl’s side. He must really treasure her.” The woman smiled. “I never thought I would meet the Phoenix girl here. If she were to come back to the palace with me and train, she might just be the strongest there.”
The woman began to descend towards Xiao Yue and Ye Mo.
“Stop kissing! Someone strong is approaching,” Ling’er said.
“Who’s there?!” Ye Mo shouted as he noticed strong energy vibrating all around him. He raised his head and saw a goddess floating in the air, smiling at him and Xiao Yue.
What the hell? How powerful is she? Ye Mo was surprised by the fact that the woman was floating in the air without the use of Energy Wings.
“Who are you?” Ye Mo stood in front of Xiao Yue.
“Spirit Cultivating Third Realm?” The woman frowned. She’d never thought that the boy would be so weak, yet it was still reasonable as Limestone City was quite an underdeveloped city.
The woman swung her arm, and Ye Mo was blown away by invisible energy while Xiao Yue was pulled towards her. One swing was enough to separate both Ye Mo and Xiao Yue.
“Who the hell are you? Give Yueyue back!” Ye Mo quickly stood up and shouted. He summoned the Formation-Breaking Spear and readied all 37 of his Dragon Energies.
“Wait, Ye Mo. I don’t think this woman is trying to hurt me,” Xiao Yue said as she noticed the woman was trying to help her.
“The Sky Blood Spearhead? Even though it’s damaged, I can still feel the Evil Energy in it,” the woman said and gasped. “Your little girlfriend’s Phoenix Curse will be fully released in about an hour. Not only will she die, but this whole area will also be destroyed by it.”
“I know,” Ye Mo said. “Will you be able to save her?”
“Yes, and not only I can save her, but I can also help her to master the curse.” The woman smiled. “This is one of the four ancient curses. If she were to return to my palace with me, I should be able to find her a suitable Cultivation Method. By then, not only will the curse stop causing her pain, but she could also become one of the most prominent martial artists in the world.”
“Why should I believe you?” Ye Mo frowned.
“Why do you think I would lie to you?” the woman asked. “Your girlfriend is still alive after hosting the curse for so many years. That means she is suitable to train with me. Such talent is hard to come by these days.”
“Ye Mo, I think this woman has already reached the Heaven-Breaking Realm, maybe even further than that,” Ling’er said. “Plus, her Cultivation Method must be one of the Poison Cultivation. She’s either from the Sacred Bane Division or the Sky Bane Palace.”
“The Poison Cultivation? Doesn’t that mean she’s from one of the evil clans? I’m not going to let Yueyue join them!” Ye Mo said.
“You big idiot! Who told you that training in Poison Cultivation means they’re from the evil division?” Ling’er sighed. “The Sacred Bane Division and the Sky Bane Palace are two strong clans in the Lingwu Continent, and they are both decent clans too.”
“Fine, but will I be able to see Yueyue again?” Ye Mo asked.
“Come to the Sky Bane Palace when you’ve reached the True Energy Realm,” the woman said.
“The True Energy Realm?” Ye Mo gasped. He couldn’t grasp the strength of the Sky Bane Palace.
Xiao Yue knew in her heart that she did not have time to control the curse. She was a risk to both herself and the people in Limestone City. She had to leave, even if it meant leaving her family and Ye Mo behind.
She wasn’t someone who made decisions rashly. She knew that it would be just moments before the curse fully released; that was the reason she rode out of the city on the Lion Statue’s back. Now that she’d met someone who could help her control the curse, the only decision she could make was to follow that person.
“Ye Mo, please help me take care of my parents,” Xiao Yue said. “Take me back and marry me when you’ve reached the True Energy Realm.”
“I will. I will treat your parents as if they were my own,” Ye Mo promised. Even if he didn’t want her to leave, her life was more important than anything. He was certain that he could reach the True Energy Realm in a short amount of time. “You won’t have to wait long.”
A bright light lit up the dark sky, and both of the ladies disappeared in front of Ye Mo.
“What power!” Ye Mo gasped.
“Her power is still not even considered strong on the Lingwu Continent. You still have a long way to go,” Ling’er said.
Ye Mo nodded and stood up. Suddenly, he noticed a group of people marching towards Limestone City. With his extraordinary eyesight, Ye Mo could see that they were all riding on beasts, which could only mean that they were the Barbarians.
Ye Mo leaped from the mountaintop and landed on the ground, which shook the whole mountain. He kicked the ground and stopped just moments before the Barbarians could see him.
Ye Mo had guessed that the Barbarians were on their way to take him down.
He found a high spot and checked the Barbarians’ formation. There was a total of eight warriors riding on huge rhinos that were as big as elephants. These rhinos could only be ridden by Barbarian nobles. Eight of them would be enough to fetch a price that could buy a whole smaller clan in Limestone City.
Each of the warriors was big and tall, so the rhinos looked like normal horses when they were riding them.
“They are all either Spirit Cultivating Eight Realm or Ninth Realm. I don’t sense any Energy Shaping Realm martial artist nearby.”
“Since they are here for me, I’ll wait for them here and strike them midway. This should lower their morale a little,” Ye Mo said as he lay prone, waiting for the best moment to attack.
Suddenly, the eight rhinos stopped. The leader of the group was an old man with white hair. Even though he hadn’t reached the Energy Shaping Realm, his awareness was great, as if he could sense everything around him.
The old man was Man Hu, and he was a Half-Energy Shaping Realm martial artist. Even though he wasn’t as strong as an Energy Shaping Realm artist, he was still much stronger than any Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm.
“Who’s there? A mere Spirit Cultivating Third Realm? Are you that eager to meet your creator?”
Ye Mo knew he couldn’t hide any longer and jumped out. He rested the Formation-Breaking Spear on his shoulder and said, “This is my road! If you want to pass, then pay up!”
