Polar Static Domain

Kill Yu Xiaogang?

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened instantly; Ye Xuan wasn't even pretending anymore.

Tang San, filled with righteous indignation, spoke up: "Ye Xuan, isn't this going too far? My teacher never intended to kill you."

"He didn't want to kill me? He simply lacked the ability to do so. Even now, he continues to slander me. Do you think I shouldn't kill him?" Ye Xuan retorted coldly.

"I..."

Tang San was left speechless by Ye Xuan's words.

Every point Ye Xuan made was reasonable.

After all, from the perspective of onlookers, it always seemed like Yu Xiaogang was the one constantly provoking Ye Xuan.

If he were in Ye Xuan's position and someone targeted him like this, he would also eliminate the other party.

As Tang San fell silent, Ghost Douluo asked, "Young Master Ye, if we kill him for you, will you come back with us?"

"No."

"Then will you let us take this spirit beast?"

"No."

This exchange left Ghost Douluo feeling irritated.

He stated bluntly, "Young Master Ye, you refuse to agree to our terms yet expect us to do your bidding—that won't do. Furthermore, we are taking this spirit beast regardless. Are you intending to make an enemy of Spirit Hall?"

Ghost Douluo wasn't just using his and Chrysanthemum Douluo's personal strength to threaten Ye Xuan; he was invoking the full weight of Spirit Hall.

He hoped Ye Xuan would recognize the futility of the situation and obediently return to Spirit Hall with them.

But was Ye Xuan the type to be intimidated?

"Make an enemy of Spirit Hall? That doesn't matter to me," Ye Xuan replied.

"Very well. Old Ghost said you had some skill; I'd like to see exactly what you're capable of."

As soon as Chrysanthemum Douluo finished speaking, he lunged at Ye Xuan.

In an instant, countless petals transformed into razor-sharp blades, whistling toward Ye Xuan.

Just as the petals were about to reach him, streaks of sword energy manifested around Ye Xuan.

The sword energy met the petals, shattering them instantly.

Then, the sword energy continued its assault toward Chrysanthemum Douluo.

"Hmm?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo was shocked. Although he hadn't used any skills, Ye Xuan had blocked and countered a Titled Douluo's attack with such ease. Ye Xuan's strength was indeed as Ghost Douluo had described.

Facing the incoming sword energy, Chrysanthemum Douluo hurriedly unleashed his fifth spirit skill, forming a shield of countless petals before him to block the strikes.

However, even against this most basic sword energy, the shield formed by his fifth spirit skill held for only a few breaths.

The shield shattered, and the unstoppable sword energy continued to press toward him.

Chrysanthemum Douluo quickly took flight to dodge, but the sword energy, guided by Ye Xuan's control, continued to pursue him.

At this moment, Ghost Douluo moved as well.

However, instead of coordinating with Chrysanthemum Douluo, he lunged toward Xiao Wu.

Seeing him closing in on Xiao Wu, Tang San, who had been pulled away by Yu Xiaogang earlier, was too far to intervene. He could only shout a warning: "Xiao Wu, run!"

"Run?" A bitter smile appeared on Xiao Wu's face. How could she possibly run now?

Watching the ghostly hand closing in on her, she closed her eyes in despair.

However, after waiting for a long moment, she realized she hadn't been grabbed.

She slowly opened her eyes to find a tall figure standing before her.

Although Ye Xuan was only just over fourteen, he stood nearly 1.8 meters tall. Standing before her, he felt like a mountain, shielding her from harm.

"Young Master Ye, do you truly intend to make us your enemies?" Ghost Douluo asked coldly.

"This is my friend; I cannot let you take her. You needn't waste your breath. Whatever skills you have, show them. I've been quite curious to see your Polar Static Domain," Ye Xuan said calmly.

"It seems we underestimated Young Master Ye." Ghost Douluo's expression turned grave. Few people knew of the spirit fusion skill he shared with Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Moreover, they had previously identified Ye Xuan as a spirit beast, and it was even less likely for a spirit beast to know such secrets.

"I am quite curious, what kind of person do you think I am?" Ye Xuan countered.

Spirit Hall had been willing to provide him with books regarding spirits, yet they had tampered with them. He was genuinely curious about their true intentions.

"Old Ghost, don't waste time talking to him. Capture him and the girl together," Chrysanthemum Douluo warned, having finally shaken off the pursuit of Ye Xuan's sword energy.

Ghost Douluo didn't dare hesitate. He flew rapidly into the air, and together with Chrysanthemum Douluo, they immediately unleashed the Polar Static Domain.

Their brief exchange had confirmed that relying on their individual strength alone, they were no match for Ye Xuan.

To win, they had to rely on their spirit fusion skill.

As the two soared into the air, the people inside the Great Spirit Arena began to flee in a panic.

Those standing closer heard clearly that they were facing a martial soul fusion skill from two Title Douluos; fearing the shockwaves would kill them, they scrambled to flee.

However, many were only halfway through their escape when the martial soul fusion skill was unleashed.

Starting from the two of them as the center, it began to spread outward in all directions.

Ye Xuan merely watched quietly; had he wished, he could have interrupted their casting earlier.

But since Ye Xuan wanted to see this martial soul fusion skill for himself, he naturally would not interfere.

The moment the martial soul fusion skill took effect, Ye Xuan clearly felt his soul stall for an instant.

Yet, after that brief pause, the power within Ye Xuan began to circulate, and he regained his ability to move.

Ye Xuan flexed his wrists and said with a smile, "Hmm, not bad. This Polar Static Domain of yours is quite impressive."

Seeing Ye Xuan move, their expressions changed drastically.

They were completely unable to control him!

They knew that as long as they successfully unleashed their combined effort, even those with soul power superior to theirs could be restrained for a time.

It was simply that the higher the soul power level, the shorter the duration of the control.

But Ye Xuan did not look like he had been controlled at all.

"Who exactly are you? You aren't a soul beast?" Ghost Douluo asked in terror.

"A soul beast? You think I'm a soul beast?" Ye Xuan was left between laughter and tears. So, the soul beast the people from Spirit Hall came here to capture was actually him?

Xiao Wu had just happened to be in the way.

"If you aren't a soul beast, how can you possess such immense power without any soul rings?" Ghost Douluo demanded.

"So that's why you guessed that? And the modifications you made to the books regarding martial souls you gave me—those were to harm me as well, weren't they?" Ye Xuan asked.

"You were actually able to spot the issues in those books? It seems our Spirit Hall truly miscalculated. However, since Young Master Ye is human, why help a soul beast? No matter how strong you are, you are still just one person. Is it really wise to set yourself against our Spirit Hall?" Seeing that they were no match, Ghost Douluo prepared to resort to persuasion.

"I am just one person, yet I have the ability to wipe out seven or eight-tenths of your Spirit Hall. I wonder, would your Spirit Hall fight me to the death then? If Spirit Hall were to suffer a grievous blow, I believe the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Clear Sky Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family would all be very pleased," Ye Xuan said playfully.
