Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 485: One Month Later, Life or Death Showdown!

Chapter 485: Chapter 485: One Month Later, Life or Death Showdown!

Wang Ruoxie did not expect that this Saint Child Xu Yi would directly make a move against him.

Of course, even if he did make a move, Wang Ruoxie was not afraid of him at all.

Without any hesitation, Wang Ruoxie turned around and punched towards the opponent.

"You reckless thing, now I’ll show you the difference between a mere Inner Sect Disciple and a Saint Heir."

Seeing Wang Ruoxie dare to challenge him head-on, Xu Yi seemed greatly humiliated, and said coldly.

Although he had just risen to the position of Saint Heir in the Sect, he would not allow himself to be humiliated by a mere Inner Sect Disciple.

In the Profound Lady Sect, there was a saying that the True Inheritance cannot be humiliated, let alone a Saint Heir like him, who could not be humiliated, or death would follow.

"So what if you’re a Saint Heir, I can suppress you with my strength."

Wang Ruoxie smiled indifferently and replied.

"Die!"

Hearing this, Xu Yi was furious and immediately punched fiercely, the terrifying fist light causing the surrounding space to collapse inch by inch.

"Boom..."

The next instant, the two fists collided, and then a muffled groan was heard.

Soon after, Xu Yi’s figure was blasted back, while Wang Ruoxie still stood firm.

This indicated that in this clash, the Saint Heir Xu Yi was actually defeated.

"Is this the so-called difference between an Inner Sect Disciple and a Saint Heir?"

Wang Ruoxie sneered and said.

"How is this possible? I don’t believe it, you’re not just any Inner Sect Disciple."

Xu Yi slid back dozens of steps before barely stabilizing himself, then said to Wang Ruoxie with an ugly expression.

Although he hadn’t used his full strength in that punch, even an average Ninth Layer Celestial Emperor Realm wouldn’t be able to withstand it unharmed. Yet, with merely a Seventh Layer Celestial Emperor Realm, the other party not only received his punch but also blasted him back.

He was confident that with his strength, even among Saint Heirs of the same stage, he was top-tier, so how could he be so easily defeated by a mere Inner Sect Disciple?

"Whether I am an Inner Sect Disciple or not is none of your concern. If you want to fight, I’ll accompany you to the end. If you don’t dare to fight, then don’t block my way."

Wang Ruoxie glanced at Xu Yi indifferently and said slowly.

After saying this, he took a step forward and continued heading towards Heaven-Overturning Peak.

Xu Yi’s expression kept changing, although he wanted to continue fighting, he wasn’t sure he could defeat the opponent.

"In a month, let’s have another duel. Then we can determine victory or defeat, and life or death. Do you dare?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Yi shouted towards Wang Ruoxie, who was already far away.

"Alright."

Wang Ruoxie didn’t turn his head, just uttered a cold voice.

Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to quickly rise to the True Disciple or even Saint Heir level, and ideally make a name for himself in the Profound Lady Sect. Then he could catch the eyes of the high-ranking members and Ancestors of the Sect, and find a chance to gather information about the Profound Lady.

Now this Saint Child Xu Yi was offering a duel, so Wang Ruoxie could naturally use him as a stepping stone.

Defeating or even killing a Saint Child in public should suffice to make him famous throughout the Profound Lady Sect.

"Letting you live another month won’t hurt; by the time of our duel, it will be your death day."

Xu Yi coldly laughed inwardly, confident that in a month, he could break through to the Celestial Venerable Realm, and then defeating the opponent would be a piece of cake.

...

On top of Heaven-Overturning Peak, it seemed to have the Forbidden Sky Array etched into it, making it impossible for Wang Ruoxie to perform Sky-controlling Flight even with his current cultivation power.

He had no choice but to walk forward step by step, though even on foot, his speed was not slow.

About half an hour later, Wang Ruoxie reached the summit of Heaven-Overturning Peak.

He saw rows of splendid palaces appear before his eyes.

Evidently, these palaces were the residences of the Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the Profound Lady Sect.

"There are at least hundreds of palaces on Heaven-Overturning Peak, does that mean the Profound Lady Sect has at least hundreds of Saint Heirs and Saintesses?"

Wang Ruoxie murmured with a trace of surprise in his eyes.

"Hehe... This junior brother is quite interesting, having hundreds of palaces doesn’t mean the Profound Lady Sect only has hundreds of Saint Heirs and Saintesses."

At this moment, a laughter like silver bells sounded.

Wang Ruoxie turned to see a stunning woman in a green gauze skirt, smiling at him.

"You should be the newly risen Saint Heir."

The woman smiled slightly at Wang Ruoxie and continued, "Although Heaven-Overturning Peak only has a few hundred palaces, the number of Saint Heirs and Saintesses in the Profound Lady Sect far exceeds that."

"However, you don’t need to worry, in fact, many Saint Heirs and Saintesses do not reside on this peak, so there are still some vacant palaces where you can choose one to live in."

"Senior Sister, I’m Wang Ruoxie, not a newly risen Saint Heir, but an Inner Sect Disciple."

Wang Ruoxie chuckled at the woman and replied.

"What... you’re that Wang Ruoxie?"

Hearing his words, the woman was taken aback, and her eyes showed a surprised expression.

"Does Senior Sister know me?"

Seeing her reaction, Wang Ruoxie was also slightly surprised and asked.

"So you’re the one Junior Sister Ningyue has been thinking about day and night."

The woman scanned Wang Ruoxie with a strange look and said to herself, "I don’t even see where you’re so outstanding, I really don’t get why Junior Sister Ningyue can’t forget about you."

"Senior Sister, how is Ningyue now?"

Upon hearing the woman’s self-talk, Wang Ruoxie’s eyes narrowed, and he quickly asked.

"Not well, she’s not well at all now."

The woman shook her head slightly and sighed, "Ever since she heard about your death at the hands of the Tree-man King on Fallen God Peak more than a month ago, she has been crying almost every day, and during her seclusion, she nearly went into qi deviation several times."

"Moreover, if not for the Master’s intervention to confine her, she would’ve long gone to Fallen God Peak to find you. You should know how dangerous it is there; if she went, not only might she not find you, but it could also endanger her life."

"Senior Sister, can you take me to Ningyue’s residence? I wish to see her."

The woman’s words made Wang Ruoxie’s heart tremble.

Although he knew Xiao Ningyue would worry about him, he didn’t expect her to be so heartbroken over his "death."

He and Xiao Ningyue met in the Celestial Sword Sect; during their journey together, they formed a strong bond, each having a place in the other’s heart.

However, Wang Ruoxie had always struggled with the memory of being killed by his beloved Profound Lady, which left him fearful of confronting such matters, so he never expressed his feelings, nor made any promises.

Yet, despite this, Xiao Ningyue never left his side and even risked her safety to go to Fallen God Peak for him.

At this moment, Wang Ruoxie not only didn’t blame Ancestor Xuan Xi for confining Xiao Ningyue but was extremely grateful.

If Ancestor Xuan Xi hadn’t confined Ningyue, the consequences would’ve been unimaginable.
