Chapter 466: My Name Is Ye Qing, And I Always Keep My Promises

It is easy to find a stick to beat a dog, Ye Qing sneered despite his pallid complexion and tearing flesh. Then, an unbelievable amount of blood and qi poured out of his wounds. They felt as terrible and forceful as Zhou Hengshans Men of War.

As Ye Qing became taller, and iron-like fur grew out of his skin, the wounds too widened until they looked like cracks on a wall. One could see clearly into his body and his bright red blood roaring swiftly like molten lava. Right here and now, he resembled a human-shaped volcano.

When Ye Qing threw his own punch, it was like a volcano was erupting. The heavens turned crimson, and the ground tore itself asunder. Then, the powers clashed. Red and black dominated one half of the sky like yin and yang, evening and twilight.

Although Chu Qingges sudden appearance forced Zhou Hengshan to withdraw the large majority of his energies, and he was in so much hurry to kill Ye Qing that he didnt bother regathering his power, he was still a Grandmaster. Just a few breaths later, the red energy began crumbling and receding toward Ye Qing.

Boom!

There was a loud explosion, and the red energy abruptly shattered into smithereens. The resulting shockwave tossed ye Qing backward as helplessly as a rag doll.

You think you can fight me with your heretical magic? Foolish scum. Zhou Hengshan sneered disdainfully after sending Ye Qing flying.

He was a Grandmaster and a war veteran, so of course he recognized that Ye Qing had temporarily boosted his power using some sort of heretical art. He didnt care though. No matter how bright the firefly shone, it could never compare to the moon.

Zhou Hengshan rushed forward to finish the job, but he had just taken a single step when his sixth sense suddenly warned him of danger. Before he could identify what it was, a pair of explosions even greater than the one earlier erupted directly beneath his feet. Like glass, everything within hundreds of meters of the general abruptly shattered into pieces.

This was just the beginning, however. A greater power burst out of the earth and transformed the whole place into a sea of fire and molten lava. Unlike a normal fire, this one was filled with the aura of death, epidermic, desolation and more.

Hong Jianglong and Chu Hao took no damage because they were standing far enough to react to the sudden explosion. They hurriedly shielded Chu Qingge, Granny Ghost and Grandpa Wasp from harm and withdrew to safety.

However, Zhou Hengshen was caught off guard and standing right at the center of the explosions. He was engulfed before he could react in any way.

The Hanbas blood essence?

Chu Hao blanched a little as he identified its source. If it was him standing at the center of the explosion instead of Zhou Hengshan, he didnt think he would live to see tomorrows sun. At the very least, he would be grievously wounded for months, maybe even years to come.

How did Ye Qing come by the Hanbas blood essence?

The same question crossed everyones mind, but no one could answer it. They could only stare at the sea of fire and lava with varying expressions on their faces.

A shame, Hong Jianglong suddenly spoke up and shook his head with regret.

Shame, what? Chu Hao asked, puzzled.

Hong Jianglong answered, The explosion generated by two drops of Hanba blood essence wouldve been powerful enough to kill you, but that fatty? It is not enough.

Chu Hao: ... You didnt need to insult me.

As Hong Jianglong said, a furious roar suddenly broke out from the center and scattered the sea of flame and lava in an instant. When Zhou Hengshan came into view once more, he looked as black as a charred piece of meat. Judging from how his aura was fluctuating up and down uncontrollably, it was clear that he had taken some serious injuries.

He couldnt care less about that at the moment, however. He might have dispel the Hanbas insidious flames with his power, but it failed to quell the towering rage burning inside his heart one bit.

I will tear you limb from limb and scatter your ashes, Ye Qing!

Get in line. Youre hardly the first person who wants me dead.

Ye Qing was currently standing on top of the river. He was covered in blood, but he paid no attention to his sorry state. While staring at the fuming Zhou Hengshan, he shook his head regretfully and said, A shame that wasnt enough to kill you, you fucking fatty.

The two drops of Hanba blood essence he used to ambush Zhou Hengshan came from Zhao Lan, of course. After he slew the warrior, he had taken his Natures Shell because one, he was hoping to find some clues that might lead him to the mastermind, and two, it was his rightful loot.

He didnt find any clues, but he did find two drops of Hanba blood essence. The mastermind mustve given Zhao Lan three drops of Hanba blood essence in total as insurance[1], but the warrior had died before he could consume the remaining drops. As a result, he was the one who benefited in the end.

The Hanbas blood essence was notoriously unstable. It could only be preserved using a special container. Otherwise, it was liable to explode at the slightest jolt of impact. In that sense, it was similar to a Sky Thunder or Thunder Bomb.

Before Chu Qingge and her subordinates showed up, he had buried both droplets and one Thunder Fire Talisman in the ground precisely to ambush Zhou Hengshan. Of course, it didnt have to be Zhou Hengshan. He was perfectly happy to send the generals commanders such as Fei Chuan to the next life as well.

He knew that his enemies would do everything in their power to kill him, no matter the cost. That was why he had prepared this gift for them.

First, he borrowed Chu Qingges presence to keep Zhou Hengshan from being able to unleash his full power. Then, he attacked him to further deplete his energies.

While Zhou Hengshans energies was at a low point, he detonated the Thunder Fire Talisman to destroy the container holding the Hanbas blood essence and trigger them to explode.

One might argue that he was risking Chu Qingges life with his ploy, but he wasnt worried. He was certain that Zhou Hengshan wouldnt kill Chu Qingge, and that he would throw her as far away from him as possible so she wouldnt get in his way. On the off chance his prediction was off, he could just not detonate the Thunder Fire Talisman.

Thankfully, everything went according to plan.

In fact, Ye Qing knew that two drops of Hanba blood essence wasnt enough to kill Zhou Hengshan even when his guard was down. It probably wouldve been better if he saved the blood essences instead of wasting it on an ambush that was doomed to fail.

He didnt want to though. He wanted to retaliate against his evildoers at least once.

He didnt do anything wrong, so why must he suffer being hunted like a helpless criminal? Why must he run all over the place to escape his pursuers and hide like a frightened mouse?

Was it the weaks fate to suffer in the hands of the strong? Could he not put up even a token of resistance without receiving the capital punishment?

He refused to believe that was the truth. He rejected it wholeheartedly.

He wanted Zhou Hengshan and the mastermind who had been watching from behind the curtains all this time to know that he, Ye Qing, was no ill cat they might toy as they pleased. No, he was a tiger. A man-eating tiger.

Ye Qing!

Zhou Hengshan uttered through gritted teeth and slowly made his way toward Ye Qing once more. When he planted his right foot on the waters, it slowly climbed taller and taller into the sky.

Ye Qing paid it no heed, however. As Zhou Hengshan came closer and closer, Ye Qing smiled and declared strongly, I once swore that I would make all my evildoers pay their dues.

This is just the down payment, Zhou Hengshan. One day, I will make you pay for everything.

Remember this well. My name is Ye Qing, and I always keep my promises.

You think you have a future?

Zhou Hengshan raised both hands, and the blue waves stood parallel with the sky itself.

You wont have a future. You wont even have a next life!

Zhou Hengshan brought his arms down, and the waves finally crashed down on Ye Qing.

Sorry to disappoint you then.

Smirking, Ye Qing took one step backward and disappeared into a white fog. When did the fog appear? The waves crashed down on the spot where Ye Qing was a moment ago like a tsunami, but it was unable to scatter the thick fog.

Hmm?

That wasnt all. Zhou Hengshan realized with a frown that he was unable to peer through the fog with his eyes or his senses, much less locate Ye Qing.

Suddenly, a swarm of corpses entered his view. They slowly floated on the river, eerie and unsettling.

Fog? Corpses? Could it be the Corpse Ship?! Zhou Hengshan realized something and exclaimed in shock.

The next moment, he felt the fog slowly receding toward the distance.

1. Ye Qing seriously wouldve died if he had chosen to stall out that fight until Zhao Lan ran out of steam lol.
