"Surihan, you’re up!" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Xu Yang paced for a while, finally settling on his target.

Looking at Surihan, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

In his eyes, Surihan definitely deserved the title of ’unlucky bastard’!

That jade talisman etched with Surihan’s ’be a dog’ command was still on his body.

The deterrence was explosive!

As long as it didn’t mean certain death for Surihan, he’d probably agree to anything.

Surihan, the tenth of the Ten Blood Generals!

Originally a Yin Realm Perfection cultivator, but after more than a month in the Blood Desert, he’d also stepped into the Yang Realm.

Tenth, Yang Realm!

It’s easy to imagine how abundant the fortunes within the Red Sand Blood Desert are for the Barbarian Race!

Once the three-month period ended, if the Ten Blood Generals didn’t die, at the very least, each would have broken through a realm.

The thought alone was terrifying.

In Daqian, Xu Yang knew little else aside from the Wuhou Hall!

Wuhou Hall—the sacred land of cultivation that rose to prominence after Daqian’s major sects were suppressed.

Only a handful of noble families and sects could compare!

An actual Marquis Wu was just about on par.

"Wuhou Hall, Zheng Qi."

Zheng Ming’s older brother!

The thought struck Xu Yang, and a flash of coldness appeared in his eyes.

Zheng Qi would never let him go.

Though that guy—who knows if he actually became a Marquis Wu.

The Marquises of Wuhou Hall came in two types: ordinary Marquis Wu and titled Marquis Wu!

The latter are the strongest. Those who get the title of Marquis Wu are top-tier talents across all of Daqian.

Even if Zheng Qi could become a Marquis Wu, he couldn’t reach titled Marquis Wu status in a short time.

Yang Realm isn’t that much of a threat!

Xu Yang gave a faint smile. Right now, though he was still somewhat lacking against Yang Realm, it’d only take a few months to close that gap.

As countless stray thoughts flashed by, Xu Yang refocused, staring intently at Surihan.

Surihan was getting ready to move.

He’d already hunted down quite a few monsters.

Not many strong fighters had gathered around him, but not few either.

At least in Xu Yang’s eyes, he was no worse off than Helan Xing’s sidekicks.

In other words, his chances of breaching the gate and making it to the other side were very high.

Xu Yang planned to hitch a ride.

"Dog, let’s go."

The plan still needed him and Dog to work together.

Half a quarter hour later.

After some wrestling, Xu Yang and Dog teamed up to subdue a relatively weak Blood Corpse.

After erasing its consciousness, Xu Yang and Dog directly burrowed into the Blood Corpse’s body.

"If this works, we’ll know soon."

Xu Yang concealed his entire aura, let the Demon Dragon Saber radiate a menacing force, and then steered the Blood Corpse to dash straight at the monster wall.

The closer he got, the more Xu Yang tensed up, anxiety gnawing at him.

After all, it was a disguise—if they noticed something wrong, there’d be endless monsters to deal with.

When he merged into the group, a Blood Corpse glanced at Xu Yang.

Xu Yang’s heart nearly leapt out of his chest.

Luckily, that Blood Corpse only gave him a casual sweep, not bothering with this ’fellow’!

Phew!

"Made it."

Xu Yang forced down his frantic heartbeat, controlling the Blood Corpse to roam along the wall, edging closer to Surihan.

As he drew near, Surihan was already beginning to cross over!

He hurriedly sped up, but didn’t get too close.

This squad of Yang Realm barbarians would show no mercy.

Keeping a safe distance, Xu Yang saw the breach torn open and immediately closed in.

BOOM!!

Along with a deafening boom, a terrifying flash of blade light slashed the last hundred meters of wall clean in half.

The breach appeared!

"Surihan, quick!"

The breach inside was wide open—Surihan charged forward like a madman.

"That saber’s insane."

Xu Yang’s heart pounded anxiously. For an instant, he felt the Blood Corpse’s body violently tremble, splitting on the surface with fresh wounds.

The saber energy radiating from that blade was too much even for a Blood Corpse.

In a split second.

Xu Yang decisively abandoned the Blood Corpse, using the force of its explosion to slash open another gap and leap into the breach.

"What the hell is that?"

"A Daqian man?"

"It’s that guy—how did he..."

The Martial Artists retreating in the rear stared, their eyes going as round as saucers, as if seeing a ghost!

But now, powerless to do anything, all they could do was watch as the monster horde swarmed in to fill the breach.

Xu Yang sprinted madly, his speed peaking to the limit!

He was around ten zhang behind Surihan.

On both sides, countless vicious monsters lunged and clawed at him.

"What the hell?"

Surihan instinctively looked back, dumbfounded: "Xu Yang!"

"You..."

"Bastard!"

Surihan cursed under his breath, ignoring Xu Yang and fleeing as fast as he could.

The breach was about to disappear!

"Damn it, you dog bastard—better die in there." Surihan spat his curse.

Xu Yang realized things weren’t looking good.

A gap of ten zhang—any other time, that was nothing.

But here, it was enough to kill!

One slip, and you’re dead meat!

Xu Yang kept his cool—no panic!

CLANG!

Demon Dragon Saber appeared in midair.

"Cyan Jade Seal!"

"Dragon and Snake Saber!"

Xu Yang flung out the Demon Dragon Saber, summoned the Cyan Jade Seal, activated the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, and used Saber of Will.

Swish!

The blade flowed like a demon dragon ascending—erupting in an instant with power rivaling a Yang Realm!

BOOM!

The gap—compressed to the extreme—was held open by the Demon Dragon Saber for a split second!

Just for that instant, Xu Yang burst through.

BOOM!

The monsters on both sides slammed down like falling mountains.

The Demon Dragon Saber wailed and was swallowed up instantly!

"Come back!"

Xu Yang rolled across the ground, letting out a raspy roar—one thought draining all his Spiritual Power.

It felt like a giant hammer smashed into his skull, his vision going black!

At the same time, a cold gleam flashed across the bloody sand, shot in front of Xu Yang, then exhausted, collapsed to the ground.

Spurt!

The metallic taste in Xu Yang’s throat burst out, his vision spinning wildly!

He bit through his tongue to clear his head, barely managing to roll over.

A surging killing intent mixed with a violent wind rushed at him!

"Xu Yang, so you’ve met your match too?"

"Hahaha, kneel before me and bark like a dog!"

Surihan charged with his sword, laughing like a maniac.
