Slaying an Evil Soul Sage Four Ranks Above, Mu En's Extreme Caution

A blade of light, like that of the Light Emperor himself, swept toward the Evil Soul Sage. It also contained Ye Chen's unique "Emperor's Supremacy."

With perfect fusion of the Power of Light and control over Spiritual Power, Ye Chen unleashed this nearly perfect strike, wielding incomparable might as it swept toward the black-robed Evil Soul Sage.

The golden blade collided with the black-robed Evil Soul Sage's Martial Soul Avatar in midair. Compared to the Evil Soul Sage's enormous black hand, the blade of Emperor Aurora Slash appeared somewhat tiny.

Yet Emperor Aurora Slash effortlessly shattered the black-robed Evil Soul Sage's Martial Soul Avatar, the Ghost Hand True Body, as though cutting through tofu.

To the blade of light, evil power was like nourishment, continuously feeding the Power of Light within Emperor's Light Slash and increasing its might severalfold.

After the blade of light Ye Chen had unleashed shattered the black-robed Evil Soul Sage's Martial Soul Avatar, its momentum did not weaken. Instead, it grew even stronger.

Filled with dense Power of Light, the blade carried even more terrifying force as it cleaved toward the black-robed Evil Soul Sage.

"No! I refuse to accept this!"

"Ahhh!!!"

Ye Chen's blade of light struck the black-robed Evil Soul Sage. The power brimming with Light Aura clung to his body like maggots.

Having been struck by Ye Chen's attack, the Evil Soul Sage let out a heart-rending scream before falling from the air.

Upon closer inspection, one could see an enormous wound running from his shoulder to his waist. Power of Light radiated from it, making the Evil Soul Sage suffer as though he had been cast into the eighteenth level of hell.

Ye Chen watched the Evil Soul Sage roll endlessly across the ground and emit agonized screams. He felt no sympathy whatsoever; instead, he found it deeply satisfying.

"That's right. How could a beast like this be allowed to die so easily?"

Ye Chen muttered to himself as he held the Emperor Aurora Sword and walked step by step toward the black-robed Evil Soul Sage.

Looking at the Evil Soul Sage, whose entire body was festering and who had almost completely lost the ability to fight, Ye Chen gave a mocking laugh.

"You committed countless evils in the past. Now that the consequences have come back to bite you, how does it feel?"

With that, Ye Chen raised the Emperor Aurora Sword. Its tip pointed directly at the Evil Soul Sage as he prepared to end his life with a single strike.

Just then, enduring the corrosion of the Power of Light, the Evil Soul Sage threatened Ye Chen.

"You cannot kill me. My master placed a dark curse on me, and he is also in Heaven Dou City."

"If you kill me, you'll expose your location as well. When that happens, no one will be able to save you."

"My master is a legendary Titled Douluo. He is not someone you can resist."

Ye Chen frowned slightly, then raised the Emperor Aurora Sword in his hands a little higher.

Seeing this, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage thought Ye Chen was afraid and was about to continue speaking.

But all that entered his sight was the Emperor Aurora Sword, blazing with golden light, descending at extreme speed.

"No!!!"

"I curse you..."

Before the Evil Soul Sage could finish speaking, Ye Chen's Emperor Aurora Sword plunged deeply into his heart, ending his life.

"What a joke. Even at death's door, you still dared to threaten me."

After killing the Evil Soul Sage with one strike, Ye Chen pulled out the Emperor Aurora Sword and put it away.

Tang Ya came to Ye Chen's side and looked at the dead Evil Soul Sage. The way she looked at Ye Chen was as though she were looking at a true monster.

"Are you even human? A Soul Elder killed a Soul Sage and wasn't even injured much."

Hearing Tang Ya's words, Ye Chen did not become arrogant. His golden eyes looked at Tang Ya as he humbly replied.

"This was only an exception. If he hadn't been an Evil Soul Master, we probably would have had to flee for our lives today."

Ye Chen knew exactly why he had been able to kill this Evil Soul Sage so easily. It was entirely due to the Emperor Aurora Sword's suppression of Evil Soul Masters.

The Power of Light from his Martial Soul alone was enough to make Evil Soul Masters suffer, not to mention the traits of his First Soul Skill, which were a complete counter to them.

When facing Evil Soul Masters, Ye Chen's combat power could increase severalfold or even tenfold. Evil Soul Masters, on the other hand, were the opposite.

Before Ye Chen, Evil Soul Masters could not even display half their strength. For Ye Chen to fight an Evil Soul Master was as easy as an adult beating a baby.

"Alright, we need to leave quickly. Otherwise, if the Titled Douluo master he mentioned arrives, we won't be able to get away."

Thinking of what the black-robed Evil Soul Sage had said before dying, Ye Chen hurriedly spoke to Tang Ya behind him.

Although Ye Chen's Emperor Aurora Sword greatly suppressed Evil Soul Masters, if an Evil Soul Master at the Titled Douluo level came now—

Faced with such an enormous difference in Soul Power Level, Ye Chen would still be helpless. Ye Chen guessed that once he reached the Soul King level, even against an ordinary Titled Douluo Evil Soul Master, he would have the confidence to kill them with a single slash!

Ye Chen then took Tang Ya's little hand and left, heading toward Shrek Academy.

After a while.

A figure appeared at the site where Ye Chen and the Evil Soul Sage had fought.

"Such pure Power of Light? And it even killed my nourishment."

This figure was the master the Evil Soul Sage had mentioned, an Evil Soul Master at the Titled Douluo level.

Upon seeing his disciple dead, his first reaction was not grief, but a hint of regret.

In his eyes, this Evil Soul Sage had merely been a parasite. According to his plan, when this disciple's strength was about to approach that of a Titled Douluo, it would be time for him to harvest the parasite.

In the eyes of Evil Soul Masters, there was basically no such thing as emotion. All they pursued throughout their lives was greater strength, no matter how evil the method of obtaining it might be.

After learning of the Power of Light on Ye Chen, this Titled Douluo Evil Soul Master developed murderous intent.

In his view, if a soul master possessing such pure Power of Light were allowed to grow, he would surely become a future threat to Evil Soul Masters.

"Let me think. Where could that little light brat have run off to?"

"I really want to crush his skull with my own hands, extract his soul, and use it to honor my Martial Soul."

"Hehehe."

As he thought this, the Evil Soul Master let out an evil laugh that made anyone who heard it feel that he was no good.

Just as he was about to set out to search for Ye Chen and Tang Ya's whereabouts—

Endless Power of Light surrounded him, while voices came from every direction.

"It seems you won't have that chance."

Seeing the Power of Light continuously emerging around him and hearing the voice coming from nowhere, the Titled Douluo Evil Soul Master immediately panicked and shouted.

"Who?!"

Just as he was about to look around for the enemy, the next moment, a refined yet domineering figure appeared before him.

"I heard you wanted to kill my disciple? Extract my disciple's soul?"

The one who had arrived was Mu En. Ever since Ye Chen left Shrek Academy, Mu En's gaze had never left him.
