I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

Li Ying was half-kneeling on the ground, his palm pierced by the sword, blood dripping from it, and the excruciating pain made him sweat profusely.

Looking across at the other side, Shen Ming stood there with a blank expression.

Dude, Shen Ming really doesn't understand what's going on.

Li Ying gritted his teeth, focusing all his spiritual sense on Shen Ming to confirm the ice and fire toxins on his body and the unique aroma of Qingxu Wine when he exhaled.

Ice and fire contain yin and yang, and the Qingxu wine is mixed with Xiaoyinmu fruit. When the two are combined, they form a twin calamity through a secret technique.

Li Yingyi was a very cautious person, and he had already experienced the calamity of twins on the medicine man.

He slit his own throat with a sword and was unharmed, while the drug user's neck snapped on the spot.

At this moment, he was certain that there was no mistake anywhere.

The more this was the case, the more difficult it was for Li Yingyi to understand.

"Why is this happening?!"

Li Yingyi's expression gradually became ferocious.

It's normal that Shen Ming doesn't know the identity of his shadow, but as soon as he tells the Jiang family, his intentions will be exposed immediately, and he will be doomed!

How to do? !

Li Yingyi's gaze swept across the treasure room. There were more than ten sect disciples and more than twenty demonic cultivators!

Kill them all!

Li Yingyi ranked seventh on the Hidden Dragon List.

He couldn't handle all five of the Demonic Sect's rulers by himself, but in a one-on-one fight, none of them were his match.

Shen Ming defeated the five Demon Lords with a single sword strike, yet Jue Wuchen and Ying Yue escaped. This indicates that the sword strike's destructive power did not exceed the combined power of the five, but rather covered a wide area, defeating them one by one.

Not only is there a chance of victory, but he also has a pretty good chance of winning!

However, Li Yingyi's pupils contracted as he noticed Zhou Lingyun, a powerful Earthly Sovereign who was faithfully following Shen Ming.

Jue Wuchen said she was one of the thirteen swords of the Wusheng Sword Sect, but she seemed more like Shen Ming's protector.

The Jiang family is so powerful, they even have an inside agent within the Wusheng Sword Sect?!

God will kill me!

Li Yingyi was unwilling to accept this, but he was helpless against the Supreme Realm.

Everyone sensed Li Yingyi's murderous intent; he wanted to kill everyone.

Those who don't know the inside story can't understand.

"Are you unwilling to accept this? Do you hate it? Open your heart, open your mind, and let me in!"

Suddenly, Li Yingyi heard a familiar voice.

Pillar Spirit Tianjiu!

The passage to the underwater Dragon Palace has disappeared; the sound is coming from inside the Dragon Ball.

Compared to the solemnity and holiness of the Dragon Palace just now, Tian Jiu's voice was filled with evil.

"Who are you! No, what are you?!" Li Yingyi answered with his divine sense.

"You may call me the Crimson Blood Demon King."

Tianjiu—no, the Crimson Blood Demon King's voice revealed smugness and madness.

"Human, I admire you greatly. I have chosen you as the chosen one of the Heavenly Demons. In the future, I will summon the Heavenly Demons to invade this world. The advantage is that you can kill anyone who gets in your way, and even gods will be slain if they stand in your way."

"I only need to make a slight move to deal with that human woman."

The "Demon King" refers to Zhou Lingyun, whom Li Yingyi is wary of.

Hidden within the Dragon Ball, he witnessed Li Yingyi's actions, sensed his evil, and was overjoyed.

He deliberately gave the Dragon Ball to Fang Zheng, who was weaker, claiming that it contained mottled dragon blood, but that was just a hoax.

The goal is to incite this group to fight each other; those who survive will be the most ruthless.

To further tempt this human race into depravity and make them God's chosen ones!

As it turned out, the Crimson Blood Demon King realized that there was no need for such trouble. He had to give Li Ying a thumbs up for his evil and selfish nature and say, "Goodness!"

"If I let you in, am I still myself?"

Li Yingyi began to worry about everyone.

“Of course it’s you. Your friends know it’s you, the people you hate know it’s you, the people you look down on know it’s you, and the enemies you killed know it was you, ‘Li Yingyi,’ who killed them. The whole world knows that you, Li Yingyi, exist!” said the Crimson Blood Demon King.

Li Yingyi was also a wicked and treacherous person, so he could easily understand the meaning behind those words.

"The world has wronged me! I will then wrong the world! Come on!"

"Hahahaha!"

This time, everyone could hear the Crimson Blood Demon King's laughter.

Li Yingyi's body tensed, his flesh began to writhe, and his skin became rough and cold, radiating an eerie glow.

His forehead slowly rose, and two sharp horns broke through the skin. The horns were dark and shiny, exuding a mysterious and evil aura.

Their eyes had lost all humanity, replaced by endless rage and destruction.

"It's forbidden power!"

Those unaware of the inside story assumed this was a taboo change brought about by Zang Tianhai, and they all shuddered.

Forget about watching the commotion, he ran towards the door.

Zhou Lingyun took the lead, as a Supreme Realm expert, she rushed ahead of everyone else.

"Even the Heavenly Sovereign couldn't subdue him!"

When she saw that Shen Ming remained unmoved, she immediately knew something was wrong.

It seems that Shen Ming can only restrain the forbidden power that has no physical form. As for Li Yingyi's physical changes, they have real-world implications, which he is powerless to change.

Naturally, Zhou Lingyun didn't hesitate at all and ran away, abandoning Shen Ming.

She wouldn't feel guilty. As one of the thirteen swordsmen of the Wusheng Sword Sect, it was good that she didn't take the opportunity to strike Shen Ming.

However, Zhou Lingyun stopped abruptly at the door, looking down at her chest in disbelief.

A steel claw ripped her open, and her flesh and blood rapidly drained away. In just a few seconds, she became a skeleton!

Seeing this scene, Jue Wuchen thought of the skeletons in the First Hall.

“You will all die outside anyway, so you might as well become my flesh and blood.”

"Jiang Ming! Why are you born with everything! What skills do you have besides being born into a better family!"

Li Ying, who had transformed into a monster, opened his mouth and made two sounds.

He attacked repeatedly, slaughtering the demonic cultivators and absorbing their flesh and blood.

"Don't rush, he's next."

Li Yingyi sneered repeatedly, flashing in front of Shen Ming like a ghost, his steel claws about to crush his head.

At that moment, as if struck by an invisible lightning bolt, Li Yingyi fell to the ground, his body began to convulse, and the demonic horns disappeared rapidly.

"A soul brand?! You've been branded with a soul brand, and you still dare to try and deal with him?! Damn it! You've ruined me!"

The Crimson Blood Demon King roared madly.

As the shadow of the Jiang family, Li Yingyi had his soul imprinted early on.

Li Yingzhi only knew that the mark restricted his freedom. No matter where he went or what level of cultivation he reached, the Jiang family could easily control him.

What he didn't know was that the soul imprint also included the prohibition against harming the Jiang family's heir, otherwise he would be punished by having his soul whipped!

This is a necessary measure for the Jiang family to be a first-class aristocratic family.

The Crimson Blood Demon King, having parasitized Li Yingyi's soul, was naturally affected by the mark.

Li Yingyi intended to force the Jiang family to break the mark by using the calamity of twins, but little did he know that this mark could not be removed, and forcibly erasing it would severely damage the soul.

Shen Ming stood there, unusually resting his chin on his hand, looking thoughtful.

He still didn't understand the cause and effect, and tried to sort it out.

"It's too complicated, I don't want to think about it anymore."
