Chapter 1189 Blood Gathering
Why did Yang Haoran know that Wan Wu Yi was hiding here? It was because he had secretly left behind some minor tricks when he departed the Ancient Demon Palace. These small tricks weren't for grand purposes, but they could sense power fluctuations within a certain timeframe, no matter how subtle.
Before employing this method, Yang Haoran hadn't known Wan Wu Yi's hiding place. But when the blood energy Wan Wu Yi had transformed into began to emanate from the murals, Yang Haoran, who had just returned to the Death God Temple, immediately sensed it.
Subsequently, Wan Wu Yi's blood energy coalescing into a physical body, and then Wan Wu Yi setting up a forbidden barrier, all fell within Yang Haoran's perception. However, at that time, he couldn't be one hundred percent certain that this person was indeed Wan Wu Yi. Only when the Blood Refining Grand Array restarted did he become absolutely convinced.
Now, facing the grim-faced Wan Wu Yi, Yang Haoran appeared quite unperturbed. He had no intention of explaining Wan Wu Yi's confusion.
"Wan Wu Yi, if I were you, I would hide myself well and absolutely not show my face easily. But since you've revealed yourself, I'll have to settle this score with you today. You can kill anyone from the various factions in Gu Mo City as you please, except for those from my Underworld Office. That's your freedom, and it has nothing to do with me. However, you used despicable means to awaken the inner demon within my body, making me your killing tool. This, I cannot tolerate. If I don't eliminate you today, haha, I won't be able to account for myself."
As Yang Haoran spoke these words, his emotions weren't agitated, and his tone was as calm as usual. His face even maintained a faint smile. However, his words, amplified by Spirit Power, resounded throughout Gu Mo City. Not only did Wan Wu Yi hear them clearly, but every living person in Gu Mo City, including ordinary citizens, also heard them distinctly.
Yang Haoran's words were not only for Wan Wu Yi but also for everyone still alive in Gu Mo City, ordinary people included.
With these words, let alone those who weren't ordinary citizens, even ordinary people knew that Wan Wu Yi was still alive. Although a small portion of ordinary people didn't know who Wan Wu Yi was or how terrifying he was, this didn't prevent them from knowing that Wan Wu Yi was alive.
Pfft! ! !
Wan Wu Yi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. He glared at Yang Haoran, his eyes seemingly ready to spurt actual flames, the fury in his heart causing his body to tremble even more violently!
He knew very well that Yang Haoran had not been controlled by his Heart Demon Flute before. Yang Haoran's rampant slaughter of the various factions in Gu Mo City had absolutely nothing to do with him, Wan Wu Yi; it was entirely Yang Haoran's own idea. Yet, Yang Haoran was forcefully dumping this massive black pot onto him. The intensity of his rage was easy to imagine!
As a member of the Demon Cult, he didn't care how many enemies he made. In fact, he felt the more enemies he made, the better, for it showed his capability. He would even feel proud and honored for it. However, this didn't mean he enjoyed taking the blame for others, foolishly delighting in being a scapegoat; he wasn't that kind of person.
"Yang Haoran, you. . ."
Wan Wu Yi gnashed his teeth and spoke. He intended to say, "Yang Haoran, you are shameless," but before he could even finish that short sentence, Yang Haoran surprisingly launched an attack. With a wave of Yang Haoran's hand, a streak of Spirit Power rapidly assailed Wan Wu Yi. Before he could even react, the Spirit Power successfully struck his body.
Boom! ! !
Wan Wu Yi's body was sent flying by the Spirit Power, a large mouthful of fresh blood instantly spraying from his mouth. His facial expression twisted in pain, yet he did not release the array disk in his hand despite the intense agony wracking his body, nor did he cease injecting power into it.
Boom! ! !
Wan Wu Yi's body slammed into the ruined wall of the side hall like a cannonball. With a loud crash, the wall shattered, and rubble buried Wan Wu Yi's body.
Yang Haoran knew Wan Wu Yi wasn't dead, because he could still sense the power fluctuations emanating from Wan Wu Yi, right beneath the rubble.
One strike hadn't taken Wan Wu Yi's life, so Yang Haoran didn't stop. He immediately summoned his Soul Armament, Remnant Moon, preparing to seize this opportunity to kill Wan Wu Yi.
He had clearly seen Wan Wu Yi gripping the array disk tightly, and it was obvious that Wan Wu Yi intended to use the array disk to employ some other means. Although he didn't know what Wan Wu Yi wanted to do, for safety's sake, he felt it was best to kill Wan Wu Yi as quickly as possible.
If it weren't for the act, requiring him to appear weak and refrain from using too much power, that previous strike would have undoubtedly pulverized Wan Wu Yi.
Judging by Wan Wu Yi's current state of weakness, if Wan Wu Yi had no other tricks up his sleeve, then the next strike would certainly take his life, even if Yang Haoran only used a very small portion of his power.
Just as Yang Haoran was about to control Remnant Moon to directly obliterate the rubble and Wan Wu Yi along with it, a strange scene unfolded.
A dense, bloody mist suddenly rose from the ground of the entire Ancient Demon Palace. This bloody mist ascended from underground, and upon leaving the ground, it immediately converged. The mist transformed into blood droplets, and the droplets then formed streams of blood, flowing from all directions towards the sky above the completely collapsed main hall of the Ancient Demon Palace.
The great battle today in the Ancient Demon Palace had long since stained every inch of its ground with blood. The bloody mist now rising from underground originated from this very blood.
As for why this blood was now transforming into bloody mist, actively rising from underground and converging, Yang Haoran believed it was almost certainly influenced by the Blood Refining Grand Array.
The space above the main hall trembled, and as more and more blood converged, the trembling grew increasingly intense, as if something was about to tear through space and leap out.
This scene occurred very suddenly, and very quickly.
Yang Haoran merely glanced at it before retracting his gaze. His expression hadn't changed because of the scene before him; he still wore the same faint smile.
Although he truly wanted to see what kind of trick Wan Wu Yi was up to, out of caution, he decided it was better to give up. Curiosity could kill a cat with nine lives, let alone him, who had none.
However, before striking Wan Wu Yi, he decided to tighten the black pot around Wan Wu Yi's neck even further.
"Wan Wu Yi, I absolutely will not allow you to destroy all of Gu Mo City!"
Yang Haoran had no idea what Wan Wu Yi intended to do. The reason he uttered these words was, naturally, to inform everyone that Wan Wu Yi had not only launched a bloody and brutal massacre against the various factions today but also intended to destroy all of Gu Mo City.
Some of the people still alive in Gu Mo City, upon hearing Yang Haoran's words, immediately panicked. They, too, had noticed the large amount of blood converging above the Ancient Demon Palace's main hall and could feel the spatial tremors growing stronger.
Like Yang Haoran, they didn't know what Wan Wu Yi wanted to do, but Yang Haoran's words at this moment gave them a clear direction: regardless of what the trembling space and converging blood meant, Wan Wu Yi's ultimate goal was to destroy Gu Mo City.
Now they were all within the Blood Refining Grand Array. If Wan Wu Yi destroyed the entire Gu Mo City, they naturally wouldn't survive; they would also vanish along with Gu Mo City. How could they not panic?
Even some who harbored deep hatred for Yang Haoran now hoped that Yang Haoran could kill Wan Wu Yi, at least then they could save their lives.
After Yang Haoran's words fell, he wasted no time and spoke no more nonsense. Under his control, Remnant Moon slammed towards the pile of scattered stones where Wan Wu Yi was located.
A black gleam flashed, followed by an explosion. A portion of the rubble burying Wan Wu Yi was flung away, while another part was pulverized into dust by Remnant Moon's immense power.
As for Wan Wu Yi, he actually caught Remnant Moon with a single hand!
