"This katana, after all, hadn't disturbed your honor..."
Longgu Ryuji emitted a low murmur, and then the light in his eyes quickly dimd.
The dust kicked up by the blast settled quickly, and the blood-red katana glow, as well as Ye Ling's Gang Qi, had completely disappeared.
Ye Ling looked at Longgu Ryuji and whispered, "If you had truly entered the Emperor Realm, I might not have been able to withstand this strike."
It seed that Longgu Ryuji heard Ye Ling's words as he slowly released his grip on the katana, as if he had finally let go of the last trace of obsession in his heart.
"Sir, isn't he already dead? Why is there still movent?"
Chen Dao said in shock.
The collision between Ye Ling's Gang Qi and Longgu Ryuji's katana strike was so imnse that it almost sent Chen Dao flying.
After he finally stabilized himself, he witnessed this bizarre scene unfolding on Longgu Ryuji's body.
Ye Ling sighed softly and said, "Perhaps it's the workings of his lingering obsessions..."
Hearing this, Chen Dao, though puzzled, did not ask any more questions.
Ye Ling, too, walked up to Longgu Ryuji and gently closed his eyes.
Although Longgu Ryuji was from Wo Country, on him, Ye Ling saw a shadow completely different from that of other people from Wo Country.
If not for the limitations of Wo Country, perhaps Longgu Ryuji could have been a world-renowned martial artist, perhaps even one who entered the Emperor Realm!
After completing this, Ye Ling bent down to pick up the katana on the ground and reached for the sheath on Longgu Ryuji's waist.
As he gripped the katana, a chill force slowly spread from it into Ye Ling's body.
"Is this the power of the curse?"
"In the end, it's too weak to comprehend its true essence."
Feeling the chill force in his palm, Ye Ling said faintly.
Then a dazzling light burst from his palm, as his Emperor Realm Gang Qi erupted.
The mont the Emperor Realm Gang Qi appeared, the chilling force of the curse quickly dissipated, totally unable to withstand the power of Ye Ling's Emperor Realm Gang Qi.
After sheathing the katana, Ye Ling turned and looked towards the three people from Wo Country at the fortress.
Seeing Ye Ling's gaze falling on them, an expression of fear imdiately appeared in the eyes of the three Wo Country n.
As powerful as Longgu Ryuji was, even burning his own lifeblood to step into the Emperor Realm at the last mont was not enough to stand against Ye Ling. Facing such a formidable opponent, how could the three of them muster the courage to et Ye Ling's gaze?
"Indeed, people from Wo Country are rotten to the core. Such a person as Longgu Ryuji, I fear you can hardly find a few in the entirety of Wo Country."
"Lacking even the courage to face their enemy, is this what you all in Wo Country call the spirit of samurai?"
"Utterly ridiculous. Had it not been for my promise to him to let one person send him back to Wo Country, you would all be dead by now."
Seeing their deanor, Ye Ling also scoffed.
Upon hearing Ye Ling's words, the three raised their heads—not because they were stirred by Ye Ling's provocation, but because Ye Ling had ntioned that one of them could take Longgu Ryuji's body back to Wo Country!
This ant one of them could leave here alive and return to Wo Country!
"Lord, among the three of us, I possess the strongest ability and should rightfully escort Lord Longgu Ryuji's body back to Wo Country!"
One of the Great Grandmasters among the three Wo Country warriors said earnestly.
Among them were two Great Grandmasters, and the other was just an ordinary person.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the other Great Grandmaster imdiately interjected, "What makes you claim to be the strongest?"
"We are both mid-stage Great Grandmasters. If you disagree, we can settle this with a fight right now, and the winner will take Lord Longgu Ryuji back to the country!"
Two Great Grandmasters, like drowning n clutching at the last straw, desperately fought to seize that lifeline for a chance to survive.
The ordinary man, however, wore a look of despair and stood aside, not daring to speak a word.
He was just an ordinary man; what could he use to compete with two Great Grandmasters for the right to live?
"Silence!"
Ye Ling whispered.
Then, two divine lights burst from his fingertips, shooting straight toward the two Great Grandmasters.
In the blink of an eye, both Great Grandmasters had a blood hole in the center of their foreheads.
Blood trickled down from the holes in their foreheads, and the light in their eyes quickly faded until it disappeared completely.
"Thud! Thud!"
The two Great Grandmasters fell to the ground, motionless.
This sudden turn of events sent shivers through the soul of the last man from Wo Country, fear apparent in his eyes.
"You have survived."
"Take Ryugu Senji ho and bury him properly!"
Ye Ling said indifferently.
Having said this, Ye Ling turned and left the Wo Country Samurai's stronghold with Chen Dao.
Watching the direction of Ye Ling's departure, the last man from Wo Country imdiately threw away his weapon, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three tis toward the direction Ye Ling had left.
Then he strode over to Ryugu Senji's side, hoisted the old man who had died standing on his back, and slowly walked toward the coast.
"Master, why do you treat Ryugu Senji like this?"
"Since he is from Wo Country and even established a stronghold in the international waters, he deserves death!"
Chen Dao said with a fierce expression.
Ye Ling glanced at him and said lightly, "He was a Martial Artist deserving of respect. If there were no distinctions of nationality, he and I might have beco friends."
"Additionally, I have a task for you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dao instantly beca solemn and said seriously, "Please give your orders, Master!"
"Don't be so tense, this task is very simple."
Ye Ling shook his head and smiled, then continued, "I give you three days to control the fierce energy within your heart."
"You should be aware of so of the changes in your body, if you can't master the fierce energy in your heart, you may never reach the realm of War King, let alone the Imperial Path realm."
At these words, Chen Dao's face changed several tis, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.
It was not that he feared his strength would stagnate just shy of the War King, but that he worried if he could not reach the War King realm, he would be unable to continue serving Ye Ling!
The strength of the enemies Ye Ling encountered was growing stronger, and even with Chen Dao's current strength just shy of the War King, he was already unable to assist Ye Ling.
This also made Chen Dao's desire for power grow even stronger.

"I understand, Master!"
"I will definitely control my fierce energy and step into the War King realm to continue serving you!"
Chen Dao said earnestly.
Hearing this, Ye Ling patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "I believe in you."
The two walked away on the road they had co, except now a katana hung at Ye Ling's waist...
