265: I will take good care of Yingying.

Blood State.

Outside a hidden cave, the air suddenly distorted and fluctuated, and Cao Bu's figure quietly appeared.

Inside the cave, Ye Cang suddenly opened his eyes.

His clothes were tattered, his body covered in interlaced old and new scars, and his whole being exuded a violent and fierce aura, with a low Dragon roar faintly echoing within his body.

Two years ago, he swallowed that Dragon Consolidation Pill, cherishing the beautiful dream of returning to marry Gu Yingying after becoming stronger, and resolutely left the Red City Gang.

At first, that Medicinal Pill did indeed bring astonishing power.

The demonic dragon blood in his body was exceptionally active, his cultivation soared all the way, and in just one year he broke through several major Realms, even touching the threshold of the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

But I don't know when it started, that violent desire to kill in his heart became increasingly difficult to suppress.

Every time he circulated his Qi, the roar of the demonic dragon blood would vibrate deep within his Soul, leaving him sometimes clear-headed, sometimes insane.

Even more terrifying, he felt his life Origin and demonic Dragon Bloodline were condensing into a core.

It wasn't until half a year ago that Elder Zhong discovered the anomaly inside Ye Cang's body.

"Ye Cang, that Medicinal Pill has a problem! It is devouring you, refining you!"

Ye Cang was suddenly jolted awake.

The so-called Dragon Consolidation Pill was simply a life-ending poison!

He tried to save himself, but it was too late; there was no way to intervene.

In the end, he turned into this state, neither human nor ghost.

His consciousness was also fading day by day.

If this continued, within a year, his consciousness would completely dissipate, and he would be reduced to a demonic creature that only knew how to kill.

"Who?!"

Ye Cang shouted sharply, and a dark red halberd instantly appeared in his hand.

The halberd's body was coiled with a black Dragon shadow, exuding a heart-palpitating Emperors Might.

It was his Low Grade Emperor weapon, the soul suppressing demonic dragon halberd.

From within the halberd, Elder Zhong's solemn voice came: "Be careful, the person coming is very strong."

Cao Bu walked slowly into the cave, the light falling on his calm face.

Ye Cang's pupils contracted, and boundless hatred exploded!

"It's you!"

"It seems it hasn't fully matured yet."

Cao Bu's tone was flat: "However, it is enough."

"Why?!"

Ye Cang roared, dark red Devilish Qi uncontrollably gushing out from all the pores of his body, condensing into a blurry demonic Dragon phantom behind him, silently roaring at Cao Bu.

"Yingying trusted you so much!"

"Why do you want to harm me like this?!"

"What exactly is that Medicinal Pill?!"

Cao Bu calmly gave the answer, his voice piercingly clear: "The fate-devouring dragon transformation pill."

"Using a Child of Luck who possesses Dragon blood as a medicine man, absorbing his life, seizing his Luck, refining his Divine Soul, and finally condensing it into a perfect fruit to assist my Breakthrough."

"You, Ye Cang, with the demonic Dragon Bloodline, favored by Luck, are an excellent medicinal material."

Medicinal material!

So that was it.

All the care, all the gifts, were just to fatten him up, slaughter him, and use him as medicine!

"Ah—!!! I will kill you!!!"

Ye Cang exploded with a heart-wrenching roar.

"Despicable villain!"

Elder Zhong urged anxiously from within the halberd: "Ye Cang, run! You are no match for him!"

Run?

Ye Cang's eyes instantly turned blood-red, and boundless anger consumed his last shred of reason.

Two years!

Two whole years!

He spent two years struggling between life and death, obsessed with becoming stronger to return and see her, only for it all to be a scam.

A vicious scam that raised him as medicinal material!

"Ah—! Give Yingying back to me!"

Ye Cang roared wildly, his demonic dragon blood completely boiling, and terrifying black Dragon flames erupted from his body.

He gripped the halberd tightly with both hands, pouring all his power into the soul suppressing demonic dragon halberd.

The halberd erupted with unprecedented blinding blood light, and a massive Dragon-shaped halberd gleam that tore through heaven and earth, carrying all of Ye Cang's hatred and despair, slashed violently towards Cao Bu!

Under this blow, the entire cave began to collapse.

Yet Cao Bu did not even have a flicker in his eyes.

He merely raised his right hand, splayed his five fingers, and lightly grasped at the roaring Dragon-shaped halberd gleam.

Hum—!

The halberd gleam, capable of splitting mountains and breaking rivers, stopped without warning three feet in front of Cao Bu's palm, then shattered inch by inch, turning into nothingness as light spots dissipated.

Ye Cang's eyes were filled with unbelievable horror.

His full-power strike with the Emperor weapon didn't even touch the corner of the other person's clothes!

Before he could make a second reaction, Cao Bu's hand had already pierced through the remaining turbulent energy and precisely grabbed the blade of the soul suppressing demonic dragon halberd.

"Emperor weapon?"

Cao Bu's tone was flat, his five fingers slowly tightening: "Just garbage."

Crack!

The ferocious Dragon shadow on the halberd body let out a shrill wail, Elder Zhong let out a short, miserable scream, and his spirit body instantly collapsed.

The incredibly sturdy halberd body shattered inch by inch in Cao Bu's hand.

"No—!"

Ye Cang suffered a backlash, spitting out a large mouthful of blood, his aura rapidly wilting.

He looked at his empty hands, then at the unfathomable Cao Bu in front of him, and despair drowned his heart.

Two years of struggle, in the other's eyes, perhaps just a joke.

"Why."

Ye Cang knelt on the ground, blood continuously spilling from the corners of his mouth, his eyes beginning to lose focus: "Does Yingying know?"

Cao Bu walked in front of him, looking down from above.

"She doesn't need to know."

As he spoke, he reached out his hand and pressed it vaguely on top of Ye Cang's head.

An irresistible suction force came.

Ye Cang felt his hard-cultivated power, his boiling demonic Dragon Bloodline, that ethereal Luck, and even the most fundamental essence of his life, all flowing into Cao Bu's palm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His skin lost its luster, his hair turned gray, and his body rapidly shriveled up.

At the moment before his consciousness completely sank into darkness, Ye Cang used his last bit of strength and murmured: "Yingying."

Cao Bu withdrew his hand, and in his palm was a mass of dark golden blood essence exuding surging Dragon might.

It was the final fruit condensed by the fate-devouring dragon transformation pill—the Dragon Origin Blood Essence.

He looked at Ye Cang, who had turned into a dried corpse on the ground, and spoke calmly: "Rest assured, I will take good care of Yingying."

After speaking, he turned and took a step, disappearing outside the collapsing cave.

In place, only the withered corpse and the remnants of the Emperor weapon remained.

...

Demon State.

Former site of the Yin Yang Sect.

Two figures stood in the air, Devilish Qi surging around them; they were the two Great Emperor Realm powerhouses under the Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor.

Desire Emperor and Blood Emperor.

"Sect Master, you have finally escaped!"

Desire Emperor's voice trembled with excitement, and he knelt on one knee in the Void Realm.

Blood Emperor followed closely behind, bowing respectfully.

In front, a figure wearing black and white Daoist robes stood with hands behind his back, the Yin-Yang Two Energies flowing ceaselessly around him, forming a huge taiji diagram.

It was the Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor who had escaped.

He turned slowly, and on that face carrying endless vicissitudes, a cold smile appeared.

"These years, you have worked hard."

Desire Emperor quickly said: "It is our honor to serve the Sect Master!"

"How many people are left in the Yin Yang Sect now?"

The Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor asked coldly.

Blood Emperor and Desire Emperor looked at each other, grief and indignation appearing on their faces simultaneously.

"Reporting to Sect Master."

Blood Emperor's voice was low: "Since that great war back then, the Elders and Disciples in the sect were killed or injured, and only the two of us managed to escape by chance because we were out on a mission, plus Gu Qingtian was chasing you at the time."

"Now, the Yin Yang Sect exists in name only."

The air suddenly solidified.

The Yin-Yang Two Energies around the Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor rotated crazily, and the sky for ten thousand miles brightened and darkened suddenly, day and night inverted.

"Gu Qingtian! Gu Clan!"

He said word by word, his voice containing monstrous killing intent: "This Emperor swears, I will definitely make the entire Gu Clan flow with blood! Leave not a single living thing!"

The killing intent turned into a tangible black and white storm, sweeping across the entire world.

Desire Emperor and Blood Emperor trembled under this pressure, not daring to even lift their heads.

After a long while, the Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor retracted his aura and returned to calm.

"Follow me, it is time to make the Gu Clan pay the price."
