The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1479 - 1480: Revealing Ambition

However, realizing that the last piece of the Immortal Treasure Talisman Fragment is not so easily found, Ye Mo decided not to focus on it. If there’s no opportunity, he might never find it in his lifetime; it’s better to go directly to the immortal world and get a complete Immortal Treasure Talisman.

Ye Mo then instructed Little Jing to return and heal. Although Little Jing successfully took over the Blood Demon Ancestor, the Blood Demon Ancestor was severely injured and would need significant time cultivating to return to peak strength.

At this moment, many experts from the Southern Sea and eleven Emperors approached, looking at Ye Mo with respect—this was a respect that had evolved to a whole new level, surpassing that for the Great Celestial Son.

"Master Ye Mo, the powers of Beiming have already collapsed without an attack, and the major leaders have fled. What do you think we should do?"

The South Sea Divine Venerate asked reverently.

"You can go ahead and take over Beiming for me. Henceforth, you are friends of mine, remember that: friends of mine. Understood? If you encounter any difficulties in the future, unless I am caught in something urgent, I will surely rush to help. Of course, if there comes a time when I need you, I hope you will lend me a hand."

Ye Mo said indifferently, especially emphasizing "friends of mine," causing some Emperors to speculate whether Ye Mo intended to defect from the Wraith Clan like Xue Wudi and establish his own domain. After all, with Ye Mo’s strength, he surely wouldn’t want to be subordinate to others.

"Thank you, Master Ye Mo!"

The South Sea Divine Venerate replied joyfully. In his view, Ye Mo had limitless potential; such a young talent who not only killed Xue Wudi but also easily took care of the Blood Demon Ancestor was worth their allegiance.

Afterward, the South Sea Divine Venerate led a group of strong individuals away, leaving behind Ye Mo and the other eleven Emperors.

"Ye Mo, what are your plans?"

Ye Mo asked him.

"I want to return to the Dead Soul Royal Family."

Ye Mo replied.

"What? You want to return to the Dead Soul Royal Family? Are you crazy? Why not come back to the Wraith Clan with me?"

Ye Mo said.

"You killed Xue Wudi, and we just teamed up to kill the other ten Princes. In the Dead Soul Royal Family, I am the only one left. As long as the news doesn’t leak, I can return."

Ye Mo seemed to have thought it all through, wanting to return to the Dead Soul Royal Family.

"No, it’s too dangerous. Although the Twelve Princes have all been killed, Ao Canngwu probably knows about my existence. Even though you are from the Lingwu Continent and Ao Canngwu cannot kill you due to the Array agreement, he might still make things difficult for you. Just come back with me to the Wraith Clan, it’s safer."

Ye Mo’s decision was unwavering; even if Ye Mo really wanted to return to the Dead Soul Royal Family, Ye Mo would knock him out directly. Returning now is just too risky.

However, Ye Mo had some motive for wanting Ye Mo to follow him back to the Wraith Clan.

Thirteen people set off on their journey back to the Wraith Clan, traveling through a space-time tunnel in a Flying Palace.

This expedition to the Holy Soul Domain made Ye Mo the biggest winner. He not only discovered his identity as the Defier of Fate but also acquired Lifeblood Refinement, refining the Heavenly Snare Blood Fiend Spear into his Life-bound Magic Treasure. As for the Suppression Celestial seal, Ye Mo did not plan to refine it yet, he still needed to confirm if it would be useful at the Immortal Position Realm stage.

Of course, the forty-nine Immortal Treasure Talisman Fragments were also part of his gains.

The greatest gain, though, was advancing to the Divine Venerable Seven Souls, while Little Jing successfully took over the Blood Demon Ancestor. With his strength and the Blood Demon Ancestor, he could dominate the Wraith Land.

In the Flying Palace, Ye Mo gathered the Twelve Emperors; there were some matters he needed to instruct them about.

"For everything that happened during this mission, I hope you will all keep your mouths shut. I am not Ye Mo, but your Great Celestial Son Ye Xiao. Follow me, and you will surely benefit!"

Ye Mo said coldly, releasing an oppressive aura that made everyone’s faces shift slightly.

Ambition—almost everyone could see Ye Mo’s ambition.

"Junior Brother Ye Xiao, do you intend to defect from the clan?"

Dantai Zanglian immediately asked. She considered Ye Xiao a friend but would never defect from the clan; the Wraith Clan was her home.

"Think what you will!"

Ye Mo glanced at Dantai Zanglian and said, "You should know how strong I am now, even the Blood Demon Ancestor couldn’t defeat me. As long as you follow me, when I take over the Wraith Clan, you will become the Supreme Elder of my Wraith Clan."

At these words, everyone was secretly astonished. Ye Mo indeed harbored great ambition, aiming to take over the Wraith Clan. With the strength he displayed now, it might not be impossible.

"Great Celestial Son, I can’t betray the clan!"

Wang Luo Sha shook his head.

"I can’t either. Ye Xiao, if you truly intend to take over the Wraith Clan, then I’m not your friend."

Dantai Zanglian also remarked.

"And you all?"

Ye Mo smiled without speaking, looking at the other Emperors.

"We would naturally follow you, Great Celestial Son. Those who recognize the times are wise; the talent you’ve displayed far surpasses any mediocrity like us. Following you ensures a promising future."

"Indeed, if you tell us to go east, we’ll go east."

The other Emperors expressed their support; they held no familial loyalties; power and life were what mattered most.

"Dantai Zanglian, Wang Luo Sha, what about you two?"

Ye Mo laughed coldly, questioning them once more. Solving this matter would mean an easy return to the clan for him.

"Ye Xiao, I guess I misjudged you. How are you any different from Xue Wudi? Arrogantly relying on your strength, have you forgotten it was all because of the Wraith Clan that you cultivated to this level? Without them, do you think you’d stand where you are today?"

Dantai Zanglian erupted in anger.

"Dantai Zanglian, don’t think that just because you have helped me, I won’t dare do anything to you. I ask you both one last time: will you comply or resist?"

Ye Mo said coldly.

"I will not betray the Wraith Clan!"

Wang Luo Sha replied calmly.

"Then I apologize!"

Ye Mo’s eyes emitted two streams of illusory light, directly penetrating Wang Luo Sha’s Brain Domain. Wang Luo Sha instantly collapsed to the ground.

"Gulp!"

Watching this, the other Emperors subconsciously gulped; Ye Mo really was ruthless, using spiritual attacks to outright kill Wang Luo Sha.

"Dantai Zanglian, what is your decision? You should know that Taishi Qing is still not awake. If you just act unaware, everything will be fine. After all, we have a bit of relationship."

Ye Mo maintained a smile, though his heart was unusually tense. If Dantai Zanglian outwardly submitted, this act would be a success.
