Chapter 1120: You Dare Toy with Me?

Yunxiao gradually recovered from his shock and returned to his demeanor as the king of the Holy City.

"Ji Qingyun, stop stirring up trouble here! Although you have a grudge against Ji Canglan, slandering him like this is uncalled for. You keep calling him a demon, but do you have any proof? However, the fact that you killed the Holy City's Spirit Hound Elder is ironclad! How dare you act so recklessly in the Divine Domain, which our Holy City leads!" Yunxiao narrowed his eyes, his voice stern and accusing.

Ye Yuan hadn't expected Yunxiao to blatantly lie through his teeth.

But everyone present was a high-ranking member of the Holy City, including several Void Xuan powerhouses.

Even if he lied through his teeth, Ye Yuan could do nothing about it.

Ye Yuan naturally understood Yunxiao's intentions: he didn't want the matter of the demons to leak out, nor did he want to get involved in anything related to demons.

Thus, even knowing that Zhao Lingdong was a demon, he would never admit it.

As long as things were kept within the Heavenly Saint Tower, everything could be managed.

Looking at Yunxiao, Ye Yuan sneered, "Leading the Divine Domain... do you even deserve that? Your Yuhun Sect has been shameless for nearly a million years—truly a freak of the Divine Domain!"

Before meeting Tianli, Ye Yuan had still held a sliver of hope for the Holy City.

But now, Ye Yuan had no goodwill left at all.

This sect was simply a disgrace to humanity!

And this disgrace had lasted for nearly a million years!

However, when Yunxiao heard the name Yuhun Sect, his expression turned extremely interesting.

Others might not feel much, but to Yunxiao, it was a different story.

The name Yuhun Sect hadn't been mentioned in who knows how long.

The current Holy Domain was actually the gradual evolution of the original Yuhun Sect!

It could be said that the current Holy Domain was one of the most intact inheritors of the Divine Domain's traditions.

Although it had gone through several calamities, it had always endured over the past million years.

And precisely because the Yuhun Sect had become notorious back then, later generations abandoned that name.

However, the name had been passed down among the upper echelons of the Holy Domain.

Naturally, Yunxiao knew about it.

He just didn't know how Ye Yuan had come to know the name "Yuhun Sect."

Could it be...

Yunxiao thought of a possibility and couldn't help but shudder!

Something even Zhuge Qingxuan hadn't accomplished—had Ye Yuan done it?

Yunxiao stared intently at Ye Yuan, a cold gleam in his eyes, and said icily, "Kid Ji, what exactly did you experience in the Blood Rain Wasteland?"

Ye Yuan looked at Yunxiao with a smile and said, "Haven't you already guessed?"

The atmosphere around them began to grow strange.

These people knew that the Blood Rain Wasteland might hide the secret to becoming a god.

Ye Yuan's meaning couldn't be clearer!

He had descended to the seventh level!

Instantly, everyone's gaze toward Ye Yuan turned fervent.

"Kid Ji, if you reveal the secret you've obtained, I can let today's matter slide!" Yunxiao said solemnly.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Revealing it isn't impossible, but Old Man Yunxiao, you don't think the secret to becoming a god is worth only a Zhao Lingdong, do you?"

Hearing that there was a chance, Yunxiao's expression tightened, and his breathing became rapid.

The only thing that could move him was the secret to becoming a god.

Although the Holy City's inheritance was very complete, they hadn't escaped the upheaval of a hundred thousand years ago.

Overnight, everything related to the divine path had vanished without a trace!

Thus, the three giants of the Holy City, like other Void Xuan powerhouses, were filled with longing for the divine path.

If not, how could Zhuge Qingxuan have risked venturing deep into the Blood Rain Wasteland?

"What else do you want?" Yunxiao said solemnly.

Ye Yuan suddenly turned serious and said, "I want the Holy City to stand up and fight against the demons!"

Yunxiao's face darkened as he said, "If what you reveal is worth it, what's wrong with fighting the demons?"

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Alright, first show some sincerity. Send someone to destroy the Medicine King Hall, and I'll tell you the secret I know."

Yunxiao's expression changed, and he said solemnly, "Heh, easy for you to say! You've been in the Blood Rain Wasteland for half a year; you probably don't know that during this time, the Heavenly Sword Sect mobilized its full strength to attack the Medicine King Hall, but suffered heavy losses, nearly wiped out! Jian Feiyang was severely wounded and almost died! Now, one of the eight super holy lands is gone! You also know that Jian Feiyang's sword cultivation is no less than mine. If he couldn't succeed, I'd be useless too! If we really want to act, we have to wait until Qingxuan returns."

Ye Yuan's expression tightened, and his brows furrowed deeply.

He had advised Jian Shisan not to act rashly, but the Heavenly Sword Sect had gone its own way, ending up like this!

Hearing this, Ye Yuan shrugged and said, "In that case, there's nothing to discuss."

Yunxiao quickly said, "How about this: I'll first issue a Heavenly Saint Order, calling on the entire Divine Domain to unite against the Medicine King Hall. What do you think?"

Ye Yuan's expression softened slightly and said, "That's more like it."

"Ji Qingyun, we've shown our sincerity. Where's yours? At least, you should let me see whether the Holy City is worth doing this, right?" Yunxiao said.

He was using a delaying tactic, planning to extract some secrets about becoming a god from Ye Yuan.

As for fighting the Medicine King Hall, forget it!

The Holy City would absolutely not get involved in demon affairs!

Ye Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "Do you really want to know?"

Yunxiao immediately said, "Of course!"

Ye Yuan slowly nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll tell you. The secret to becoming a god is..."

Ye Yuan deliberately dragged out his words, creating suspense.

Everyone, including Yunxiao, craned their necks, eager to hear the earth-shattering secret from Ye Yuan's mouth.

But just then, a sudden change occurred!

Ye Yuan's figure instantly disappeared from where he stood.

Integration with Heaven and Earth!

When he reappeared, Ye Yuan was already near Guo Xu!

The distance between Ye Yuan and Guo Xu was not far to begin with, and this Integration with Heaven and Earth happened in the blink of an eye, catching everyone off guard.

Guo Xu had been intently listening for Ye Yuan to reveal the secret, never expecting such a turn of events.

Guo Xu's scalp tingled in that instant, and an extremely dangerous feeling surged within him.

"You're asking for death!"

Guo Xu reacted quickly; he immediately expanded his Divine King Domain.

But it was all in vain.

A terrifying sword aura easily broke through his Divine King Domain.

Before he could react, the Evil-Slaying Divine Sword was already at his throat.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

By the time Yunxiao reacted, he was shocked and furious. He glared at Ye Yuan with murderous eyes and said through gritted teeth, "Kid Ji, you dare toy with me?"
