Remember to bookmark 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. Mo Honglian, who had steadied herself, still had a somewhat pale face, but she had regained her composure. Only then did she realize that a slender, fair hand was gently resting on her waist, and another hand was lightly holding her arm.

Her side face, due to the earlier stumble, was now tightly pressed against a warm chest, and she could almost hear the strong, steady heartbeat. However, the familiar voice that reached her ears made Mo Honglian realize that the person holding her was Ye Wuxie.

Mo Honglian instantly felt a sense of emotion welling up in her heart. When she received the terrible news and was at her wits' end, this black-robed young man had once again stepped forward.

Ye Wuxie was very calm at this moment, his sharp, brilliant eyes meeting Shen Yushu's eyes, which were filled with killing intent.

"You... do you know who you're hugging? Do you know what you're doing? Or are you... asking for death?"

The words came out of Shen Yushu's mouth as if he were chewing ice, each word falling out one by one. The calm gaze he had earlier was now replaced with naked killing intent, and for the first time, he looked directly at Ye Wuxie.

"Do you have eyes? Can't you see who I'm hugging? Can't you see what I'm doing? As for whether I want to die, I should ask you, are you an idiot?"

Ye Wuxie's words, though calm, were sharp and clear, spreading instantly to the ears of almost everyone present, immediately causing several people to chuckle.

The tense atmosphere seemed to ease somewhat at this moment, and almost everyone present watched the scene with great interest.

All those who had safely arrived here were the best among the hundred great battles, each well-informed and most of them recognizing Shen Yushu. His reputation was not the main concern; it was his cultivation, the late-stage Essence Soul Realm, which was almost unmatched among those present.

With the Primordial Yang Inheritance about to open, everyone naturally considered the powerful Shen Yushu their top rival, and they were wary of him. However, as Ye Wuxie's infuriating words spread, everyone found them amusing and unconsciously took Ye Wuxie's side.

You, Shen Yushu, are indeed powerful, but so what? You're still speechless in the face of others.

"Ha ha ha..."

Xiao Baiou was the first to laugh out loud. Ye Wuxie's words were truly satisfying to her, and Mo Qingye also smiled.

How could the chuckles around escape Shen Yushu's ears? His white eyebrows were now inverted, his eyes filled with cold light, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his killing intent towards Ye Wuxie almost boiling over!

Especially when he saw Ye Wuxie still hugging Mo Honglian's waist, with Mo Honglian almost leaning entirely into Ye Wuxie's embrace without any sign of struggle, Shen Yushu was almost driven to the point of anger.

Not to mention hugging Mo Honglian's slender waist, over the years, Mo Honglian had never even given him a smile. This made the arrogant and self-important Shen Yushu endure for years, his possessiveness towards Mo Honglian growing increasingly intense, almost to a pathological degree.

Now, seeing Mo Honglian being hugged by a mere mid-stage Essence Soul Realm cultivator, Shen Yushu simply could not accept it!

"Looking for death!"

"Buzz"

His eyes turned fierce, and the powerful Primordial Energy within Shen Yushu's body began to surge, a terrifying wave of energy spreading out, causing everyone present to change color instantly!

"Buzz"

Having been on guard for a long time, Ye Wuxie immediately activated the Holy Dao Battle Qi, streams of pale golden Primordial Energy surging, ready to protect Mo Honglian behind him.

"Rumble"

However, at this moment, a thunderous sound came from the distant north, and everyone immediately felt a sharp, piercing aura approaching. This aura, with a faint blue glow, swept past and spread in all directions, as if trying to cover the entire Hundred Primordial World!

The blue-glowing sharp aura instantly changed everyone's expressions, even Shen Yushu, who was full of killing intent and ready to attack, had to temporarily hold back and look towards the source of the sharp aura!

Ye Wuxie's pupils constricted slightly, and his eyes had already seen the source of the sharp blue glow!

"It's another inheritance site! Look! The blue light pillar has disappeared!"

Sima Ao blurted out!

At this moment, the faces of the dozens of people present changed, filled with shock. The blue light pillar, which had alternated with the silver light pillar, had now disappeared, replaced by a steep mountain peak that suddenly appeared, standing in its place!

The steep mountain peak was a single entity, becoming finer from bottom to top, until the peak, where it seemed to be just a point!

From Ye Wuxie's angle, this suddenly appearing mountain peak looked like a giant sword embedded upside down, with waves of sharp aura spreading out, the blue glow almost piercing the heavens!

"It seems the inheritance within the blue light pillar has been activated."

Ye Wuxie's eyes brightened, and he instantly understood, his thumb touching his storage ring, thoughts racing.

Meanwhile, Mo Honglian had quietly left Ye Wuxie's embrace when the sharp aura swept by, and now stood beside him, having returned to her usual self.

"The inheritance within the blue light pillar has been activated, but the Primordial Yang Inheritance shows no signs of movement. Could it be that..."

At this thought, Mo Honglian suddenly looked at Ye Wuxie, who immediately nodded slightly upon noticing her gaze.

"Indeed, the activation of the Primordial Yang Inheritance might be directly related to the Primordial Yang Token."

"I only have one Primordial Yang Token, and there must be others among those present, just not showing it. If my guess is correct, to activate the Primordial Yang Inheritance, we need to gather all the Primordial Yang Tokens."

Ye Wuxie deliberately kept his voice low, but it was still clear to the other five people.

The five people immediately became serious, but they hid it well.

"Strange, the inheritance there has been activated, but there's no movement here."

"There must be a reason!"

"Perhaps there's something we don't know, like a key to activate the inheritance."

...

Deliberate discussions spread, dozens of gazes quickly scanning the faces of others, hoping to find something.

After all, everyone present was smart and had already guessed that the key to activating the silver light pillar inheritance might be in the hands of a few people present.

Shen Yushu forcibly suppressed his anger and killing intent, first looking at Mo Honglian and laughing, "Honglian, you are my woman, this is your destiny."

Then his gaze shifted to Ye Wuxie, his eyes filled with unhidden killing intent, and he turned to head towards the other two people in the Flowing Cloud Main City.

"Wait and see, touching my woman, death is too good for you!"

Shen Yushu understood that this was not the time to settle scores; the most important thing was how to activate and enter the silver light pillar inheritance!

"It's him! This person has the key to activate the inheritance... the Primordial Yang Token!"

A sharp female voice suddenly rang out, immediately drawing everyone's attention!

Ye Wuxie followed the sound and saw a female cultivator standing by a large rock dozens of feet away, her face full of resentment, pointing at a thin, flat-headed young man whose face had changed slightly.

"You..."

The thin, flat-headed young man clearly did not expect someone in his team to betray him!

"Does he also have a Primordial Yang Token?"

Ye Wuxie's gaze sharpened, immediately recognizing this person as the thin, flat-headed man he had encountered earlier.

"Hand over the Primordial Yang Token! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Better to kill the wrong one than let the right one go! Hand it over!"

"Don't waste words with him! Attack!"

...

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

In an instant, over a dozen figures appeared, each with a deep silver soul moon, all at the peak of the mid-stage Essence Soul Realm, their Primordial Energy glowing, rushing towards the thin, flat-headed young man.

"Damn!"

Seeing so many experts rushing towards him, the thin, flat-headed young man's face turned ashen. His expression turned fierce, his eyes flashing with a hint of ruthlessness. His right hand glowed slightly, and an ancient-looking silver token appeared in his hand. Without looking at the token, he suddenly raised his right hand and forcefully threw the silver token forward!

The thin, flat-headed young man had actually thrown away his Primordial Yang Token!

"Primordial Yang Token! Quickly!"

"Attack!"

"Be careful! Don't let others get it!"

...

No one expected the thin, flat-headed young man to throw away the Primordial Yang Token, and they were momentarily stunned. Then, the dozen figures turned and abandoned the thin, flat-headed young man, rushing towards the thrown Primordial Yang Token!

"Good move, sacrificing the pawn to save the king! This person is not ordinary."

Ye Wuxie, standing still, showed a hint of appreciation. Clearly, the thin, flat-headed young man's move, though losing the Primordial Yang Token, had shifted the focus away from himself. After all, the Primordial Yang Token might just be a key to activate the inheritance, and whoever got it would eventually open the inheritance, giving him another chance.

"Indeed, he is a remarkable person."

Mo Honglian also spoke in approval.

"Nine Opening Palms! Get out of the way!"

As the dozen figures leaped up to grab the Primordial Yang Token in the air, a fierce shout echoed throughout the area, followed by a twenty-foot gray palm print appearing, grabbing for the Primordial Yang Token!

The one who acted was Shen Yushu!

"Bang" "Boom"

The gray palm print was fierce and domineering, instantly striking several people, then forcing several others to retreat!

"Whoosh"

Shen Yushu's figure flashed, his Primordial Energy surging. After dealing with half of the people, he reached for the Primordial Yang Token!

The other half were blocked by the other two people from the Flowing Cloud Main City, who were also powerful, though not yet at the late-stage Essence Soul Realm, they were stronger than the average peak mid-stage Essence Soul Realm cultivators in Ye Wuxie's perception!

Grasping the Primordial Yang Token in his hand, Shen Yushu smiled confidently, then suddenly felt the ancient-looking silver token in his hand was extremely hot!

His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and Shen Yushu, standing with his hands behind his back, held the Primordial Yang Token.

In a short breath, the three people from the Flowing Cloud Main City, led by Shen Yushu, managed to snatch the Primordial Yang Token from over a dozen peak mid-stage Essence Soul Realm experts, giving everyone a more comprehensive understanding of the strength of Shen Yushu and his team.

However, no one acted again. They also understood that even if Shen Yushu got the Primordial Yang Token, what if there were others hiding it? Ultimately, the inheritance would be opened, and all new and old grudges could be settled inside.

The scene suddenly became extremely strange, everyone on guard, and the silence was deafening!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"

At this moment, two waves of energy approached, and their strength was no less than Shen Yushu's!

Shen Yushu, standing with his hands behind his back, also showed a slight change in his usually cold expression!

Ye Wuxie, who had been standing still, now focused his gaze, as he sensed a familiar aura!

"Whoosh"

First, a woman and two men appeared in everyone's sight. The woman was extremely beautiful, with a touch of heroism, wearing a white and green tight-fitting martial skirt, and behind her stood two young men, one lively and the other silent like a log.

"It's Nalan Yan from the Heavenly Phoenix Main City!"

"Such a strong aura! She is also a late-stage Essence Soul Realm expert!"

"My God! This is bad!"

...

When the words "Heavenly Phoenix Main City" reached Ye Wuxie, Lin Yingluo, and Sima Ao's ears, their faces all tightened. However, in the next moment, Ye Wuxie suddenly felt his storage ring tremble slightly, as if something inside was being summoned!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"

Three figures emitting extremely hot waves of energy followed the Heavenly Phoenix Main City trio from another direction. The leader had a ruddy face, standing there like a tiger crouching and a dragon coiling, radiating a terrifying heavy aura, and in his hand, he held a hot silver token!

"Zhou Huo! The first genius of the Purple Fire Main City, Zhou Huo!"

"Am I seeing things? All three from the Purple Fire Main City are late-stage Essence Soul Realm experts!"

"He also has a Primordial Yang Token!"

...

Yue Chengfeng stood behind Zhou Huo, his gaze sweeping the area, then suddenly met a pair of brilliant eyes. Yue Chengfeng was first stunned, his eyebrows twitching, then a sinister smile slowly spread across his lips, the memory of the humiliation from a month ago rising like a volcanic eruption!

"Scum! I finally found you..."
