Chapter 404: Chapter 405: The Despair of the Sand Bone King
Within the city.
The ground was covered with a red carpet, and fresh flowers were scattered along its edges.
"Young Master Ye, our Sand Bone King treats you with royal courtesy, which fully shows our king’s sincerity!" Sand Scorpion walked behind Ye Wudao, not daring to overstep.
Ye Wudao stood with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently, "A small barbarian country, yet you do understand etiquette!"
"Hehe, please," Sand Scorpion gestured invitingly.
Ye Wudao stepped onto the red carpet and strode forward.
Along the road, many citizens of Sand Bone City stood, curiously sizing up Ye Wudao.
"Is he the Young Master of Beiwang Palace, Ye Wudao?"
"Ah, so handsome!" some of the women showed a lovesick expression.
"He’s so young!"
"Don’t be fooled by his youth, his hands are stained with the lives of hundreds of thousands!" an old man said coldly.
The red carpet extended for several kilometers, ending at a majestic royal mansion.
On the steps on either side of the mansion stood Golden Armor Guards, fully armed, all guards of the Sand Bone King.
"To meet the Sand Bone King, one must relinquish their blade, otherwise they are considered an enemy!" the guards declared sternly.
"Sorry, I never part with my blade," Ye Wudao replied indifferently, taking a step onto the staircase.
"Those wearing blades will be executed without mercy!" the guards shouted angrily, charging toward Ye Wudao.
Ye Wudao glanced at Sand Scorpion beside him and sneered, "Are you in such a hurry to give me a show of power?"
Ye Wudao bellowed furiously, and a terrifying aura of slaughter exploded; "Scram!"
The guards, who were attacking Ye Wudao from all sides, were so frightened that they pissed themselves, each showing a look of terror in their eyes.
"Such a heavy murderous aura!"
"Even the mighty Sand Bone King doesn’t have such a terrifying aura!"
At that moment, a voice came from inside the mansion; "Beiwang Palace is a great power from beyond our borders, and Young Master Ye holds a status equal to mine, he need not relinquish his blade!"
Ye Wudao snorted coldly and entered the mansion with his blade in hand.
Within the Sand Bone royal residence.
About thirty powerful individuals stood on both sides, looking at Ye Wudao with unfriendly eyes.
A huge table was laden with a feast of splendid dishes.
Sand Bone King sat at the head, his gaze fixed on Ye Wudao, seriously taking his measure; "As expected of the renowned Young Master Ye, full of vigor and spirit, I’ve long admired you!"
Ye Wudao entered the hall with blade in hand, and said coldly; "Sand Bone King, where is the person?"
Sand Bone King was taken aback, then curiously asked; "What person?"
"You captured the heart and soul of Beiwang Palace, the Blade Maniac. Hand him over!" Ye Wudao said coldly.
"Oh, so it’s Blade Maniac that Young Master Ye is referring to! Hehe, please take a seat, I will have Blade Maniac brought here immediately!" Sand Bone King said.
"Let’s see the person first!" Ye Wudao’s eyes were icy cold.
"Ye Wudao, how dare you!"
"Sand Bone King gave you a bit of face, don’t mistake yourself for someone of importance!" various confidants of the Sand Bone King rebuked angrily.
Sand Bone King raised his hand, and the scene quieted down.
"Hehe, since Young Master Ye wishes to see the person, then we shall do as Young Master Ye says and bring Blade Maniac here!" Sand Bone King commanded.
"As you wish!"
Sand Bone King laughed; "Young Master Ye, this feast is full of delicious dishes from my Poluo Country, I have even personally brought in a chef from Poluo Country to cook, won’t you try some?"
"No need, I only like Chinese food," Ye Wudao flatly rejected.
Sand Bone King ate a piece of food, laughing; "If you don’t eat, next time you may not have this opportunity!"
Just then, a trembling voice came; "Young Master, you’ve fallen into a trap, this is a Hongmen Banquet!!"
Ye Wudao turned his head, only to see a man covered in blood, disheveled, approaching with shackles on his body.
The man was none other than Blade Maniac!
"Release him!" Ye Wudao demanded.
Sand Bone King suddenly erupted into laughter, and all the strong individuals in the hall followed suit.
"Is Ye Wudao too naive?"
"Stupidly adorable, oh no, pitiful indeed!"
"How dare he daydream in broad daylight?"
Sand Bone King laughed so hard he could barely catch his breath, and said; "Ye Wudao, you really made me laugh! I did not expect you to be so bold, to be caught just like that with only a Beiwang Blade!"
Ye Wudao shook his head; "You wouldn’t understand the significance of the Beiwang Blade."
"Hehe, do you really think you can take away the Beiwang Blade from me?" Sand Bone King’s face was full of mockery.
Ye Wudao replied indifferently; "You’ve shown your true face too soon, shouldn’t you have waited until the feast was over?"
"Do you still have the heart to attend a banquet?"
The king of Sand Bone City was taken aback, looking at the table full of sumptuous dishes, and laughed, "I’ve heard that prisoners from Dragon Country get to have a good meal before their death. Try it out, see how our dishes compare to those in Dragon Country?"
Ye Wudao took a bite, his brow furrowed, and immediately spat it out, "It’s hard to swallow!"
"Ye Wudao, you’re courting death!" the king of Sand Bone City was suddenly furious.
"King of Sand Bone City, I beg you, please do not kill the young master. Let the young master go, and I am willing to die in atonement!" Dao Kuang shouted loudly.
"Dao Kuang, rest assured, I will send both you and your master to hell together!" The king of Sand Bone City sneered.
With a thud, Dao Kuang knelt on the ground, his face full of remorse and self-blame, "Young master, you shouldn’t have come to save me. I, I don’t deserve it!"
"I will not give up on any member of Beiwang’s hall!" Ye Wudao’s gaze was resolute.
"Young master, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I deserve to die a thousand times!" Dao Kuang was endlessly self-reproachful, tears streaming down.
"You wished to avenge me, how could I blame you?" Ye Wudao patted Dao Kuang’s shoulder and said, "Rise, a true man’s knees are adorned with gold!"
"Tsk tsk, what a touching display of loyalty between master and servant. I’m almost moved to tears!" the king of Sand Bone City said and mockingly wiped away tears, waving his hand, "Kill them!"
"Kill!" A large group of masters attacked Ye Wudao from all sides.
"Young master, be careful!" Dao Kuang shouted.
Ye Wudao’s gaze turned icy, and he swung his blade.
Boom!
More than a dozen masters let out a scream and fell dead!
The king of Sand Bone City’s expression darkened, his gaze turned icy, "Ye Wudao, you’ve got some nerve! How dare you kill right under my nose!"
"Ha-ha, not only will I kill them, I’m also going to kill you!" Ye Wudao sneered.
"Ridiculous!" The king of Sand Bone City scoffed, "Open your eyes and look, I’ve mobilized the northern, southern, eastern, and western armies, a total of three hundred thousand troops, and set up a net in the city. Even if you had wings, you couldn’t escape!"
"Escape, why would I flee?" Ye Wudao sat down, turning the tables.
"Humph, a dying duck still holds out," scoffed the king of Sand Bone City, and then looked outside asking, "Where are my troops?"
Just then, a staggering man came running, his face horrified, "Report, King of Sand Bone City, our eastern army has been attacked by a mysterious force, heavy losses incured!"
"What?" The king of Sand Bone City’s complexion changed, "What about the other three armies?"
"Report, report, King of Sand Bone City, the western army of eighty thousand has been attacked, less than half remain alive!"
Huah!
The hall burst into uproar!
"Who dares to ambush us?"
"Damn it!"
The king of Sand Bone City clenched his teeth in anger, "No matter, I still have the northern and southern armies, enough to deal with Ye Wudao!"
Just then, a bloodied scout stumbled in, collapsing to his knees, "Report, King of Sand Bone City, our southern army has been attacked, with casualties reaching seventy percent!"
The king of Sand Bone City was unable to sit still any longer, his voice filled with rage, "Who is it, what formidable power have we provoked to annihilate three of our armies?"
Just then, a voice of despair sounded, "It’s over, it’s all over, King of Sand Bone City, our entire northern army has been obliterated!"
Boom!
The king of Sand Bone City was completely dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning, unable to believe his ears!
"King of Sand Bone City, we have to flee the city!"
"With the power to wipe out our four armies, it must be the most elite force from outside the domain, maybe an overlord!"
"We have to leave now or we’ll all die here!" The confidants of King of Sand Bone City screamed in panic.
The king of Sand Bone City barely grabbed the chair to steady himself, his gaze fixed attentively on Ye Wudao.
Ye Wudao meanwhile, exchanged a smile.
"Ye Wudao, you look rather pleased with yourself, don’t you? I’ll let you off for now, but I will kill you one day!" the king of Sand Bone City said through clenched teeth, "Let’s go, abandon the city!"
"King of Sand Bone City, you won’t be able to run!" Ye Wudao said calmly as he stood up, "Take a look outside."
The king of Sand Bone City, preparing to escape, suddenly looked up, only to see a hundred thousand men outside, their murderous aura soaring like ancient fierce beasts.
"This, this killing intent, it’s definitely from a top-notch external force!"
"We’re doomed, we’re definitely going to die!" The confidants of the king of Sand Bone City, frightened, knelt down one after another.
The king of Sand Bone City glared at Ye Wudao with eyes full of anger, his face turning red, "Ye Wudao, I should have guessed long ago, why would you dare to enter the city alone? I planned for everything, but never expected that you’d go seek reinforcements from outside to kill me!"
Ye Wudao laughed, "You think these people are my reinforcements?"
"Humph, are they not?" the king of Sand Bone City asked angrily. Those hundred thousand elites were like ancient fierce beasts, something that even with all the national resources, could not be cultivated.
Ye Wudao stood up, his dark eyes sweeping over the old soldiers of Beiwang’s hall throughout the city, standing with his hands behind his back, "Tell the king of Sand Bone City, whose men are you?"
The hundred thousand elite of Beiwang’s hall knelt on one knee, as if an ancient fierce beast was offering its submission to man, and said in a deep voice, "The hundred thousand old soldiers of Beiwang’s hall report to the young master!"
Boom!
Upon hearing this explosive revelation, the king of Sand Bone City felt like he was struck by lightning, crashing down onto the ground, his face as white as paper, muttering incoherently, "What, all of these are your, your people..."
