Chapter 241: Killing Through the Hand of Others

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Ye Mo, what did you say?”

Li Tianhe was alarmed when he heard that. He had never expected that Ye Mo would do this. If he did kill Xue Xiu, that would make him an accomplice of Ye Mo. Xue Xiu’s pupils shrank. This Ye Mo was incredibly malicious. If Ye Mo was going to be the one to kill both of them, the league would investigate their deaths. But if was Li Tianhe killing Xue Xiu, Li Tianhe would have a way to hide Xue Xiu’s cause of death.

“Li Tianhe, don’t listen to him. After killing me, he will kill you as well. If you do as he says, neither of us will survive,” Xue Xiu yelled, fearful that Li Tianhe would immediately kill him.

“Don’t worry, Xue Xiu. I won’t kill you just to keep my own life. I doubt Ye Mo would actually dare to kill us,” Li Tianhe sneered and then said to Ye Mo, “Ye Mo, you better let us off. We can build a new friendship. This way, we can help each other out in the future.”

“Haha, let you two off? I’ll be honest. I did kill Song Yang. Since death is sure for me, Li Tianhe, do you still think that I won’t dare to kill you two?”

While Ye Mo talked, his black dragon wrapped around Xue Xiu while his spear was aimed straight at Li Tianhe’s throat.

“Li Tianhe, you have three seconds. Either you kill Xue Xiu or both of you die.”

Ye Mo did kill Song Yang and had even told them about this. This only meant that he no longer cared about his life. He would most definitely be daring enough to kill them. Ye Mo had confessed to being Song Yang’s killer as he was betting on the fact that Li Tianhe feared death. After all, killing these two would definitely cause him trouble. Seeing that Li Tianhe was still not doing anything, killing intent appeared on Ye Mo’s face as he pierced his spear at Li Tianhe’s throat.

“Ye Mo, don’t kill me!” Finally, the final barrier on Li Tianhe’s will fell apart. As far as he was concerned, death was already sure for Ye Mo. He would most certainly have the guts to kill them both.

He did not want to die. He still wanted to reach the True Origin Realm, to bring his clan to glory. He had no intention to die here.

“I won’t kill you. But you have to show me your sincerity,” Ye Mo said.

“Li Tianhe, don’t fall for his trick!” Xue Xiu paled and howled, “Li Tianhe, you can’t kill me. We are good brothers that had killed the bone dragon together. How can you do this?”

Slowly, Li Tianhe stood up and indifferently said, “Xue Xiu, sorry. To preserve my life, I have no choice but to kill you. Death will still be death regardless of whether it will be one or both of us. If that is the case, I will have to sacrifice you.”

A water sword pierced through Xue Xiu’s chest. Xue Xiu stared at Li Tianhe in disbelief before glancing over at Ye Mo and groaned, “How ruthless of you.”

A genius Inner League member, Xue Xiu, thus died here.

“Ye Mo, are you happy? Now that I have killed Xue Xiu, we are accomplices. You can let me off now, right?” Li Tianhe gave Xue Xiu’s corpse a look before turning and looking at Ye Mo.

“Excellent. Li Tianhe, I advise you to not think of betraying me. With my current strength, it is only a manner of time before I become a Chief Elect. If you can bow before me, countless benefits await you. You don’t need me to teach you what to tell the league about Xue Xiu’s death, right?” After Ye Mo spoke, he stepped on the thin air and walked away under Li Tianhe’s stupefied gaze before vanishing.

With Xue Xiu death, Ye Mo felt incredibly good. Living in this world, one should be free and unfettered when dealing with favors and grudges. Since there was a grudge, he had to get his payback. After killing Xue Xiu, his next target was Ye Changsheng.

After returning to the league, Ye Mo did not look for Elder Yun at Firecloud Pavilion. He reckoned that Elder Yun must still be in the process of working on the Primordial Gold Stick. Polishing a Spirit Weapon was extremely complicated.

Ye Mo returned to the Divine Wind Pavilion instead. Outside the pavilion, Elder Feng was seated cross-legged. He sat there in meditation, yet his body was actually hovering in the air. Numerous streams of green aura swirled around, orbiting him. Ye Mo could sense that as of this moment, Elder Feng had become one with the wind. If he was to attack Elder Feng now, he probably wouldn’t land a hit.

“Disciple, you’re back?”

Elder Feng slowly opened his eyes as the streams of aura around him disappeared while his body slowly landed on the ground.

“Yes, master. I am back from Sword Whisper Manor.”

“Looking at your aura, you seem to have reached the Third Realm? Not bad at all,” Elder Feng leisurely walked to Ye Mo, nodded, and said with a smile.

“Master, I have just returned today. I heard that the Inner League member Song Yang had been killed at Skyburn Mountain Range. Even the Emperor had found out about this. What exactly is going on?” Ye Mo asked.

“You must not know this. That Song Yang is an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warrior, and also the beloved disciple of Yun He. That Yun He went to Skyburn Mountain Range to investigate and found that Song Yang’s death was very suspicious. He might have been killed by the Inner League members of the Wushuang and Tiandi Leagues. Yun He immediately reported his findings to the league leader. The leader then used this as an excuse to seek an explanation from both Wushuang and Tiandi Leagues.”

“There is one thing I don’t understand. How had a matter concerning a mere Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warrior escalated to the point where the three leagues need to go to war?”

The war between the three major leagues would definitely be a major incident.

“This is, in fact, an internal affair of the Qingyun League. But master can tell you some of it. Song Yang’s death is merely a fuse for the eruption of conflict. Although all three major leagues are in charge of protecting the kingdom, the competition between them has always been very intense. Our league leader has long wanted to do something to them. Using Song Yang’s death as an excuse, the conflict between the three leagues is growing more and more intense now.”

“What’s the situation now?”

“I heard the Emperor had personally summoned all three league leaders to the capital Tianyong City. Our league leader went with the three major league chiefs. As for the content of the negotiation, we will only know when they return.”

An affair concerning the higher ups like this was still not something Ye Mo could do anything about. So long as nobody found out he was the killer, he wouldn’t be bothered about anything else. With Li Tianhe’s temperament, he would definitely not dare to give away the truth.

“Master, I have yet to turn in the Skyburn Mountain Range mission. I’ll go turn in the mission first,” Ye Mo said.

“Ye Mo, your master’s memory is getting bad due to old age. I nearly forgot to tell you that the girl Yao Yue had reached Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, becoming number one in the Qingyun Ranking. She was the one who had helped during your incident at the Legal Division. I think you should personally thank her. She will be leaving the league very soon. Go turn in the mission before going to meet her. When you come back, I will give you some lesson. This will help you become a Chief Elect faster. When that happens, your master can retire peacefully with success,” Elder Feng said.

“Making me the Chief Elect faster?”

When Ye Mo heard this, he had a feeling that something major was about to happen. However, he couldn’t guess what it was. He could only nod his head before leaving. Apart from being the number one person on the Qingyun Ranking, Yao Yue had a second identity. She was the beloved disciple of League Chief Xuan Ji. However, Yao Yue had opted to not join any sub-leagues.

“I’ll go turn in the mission before visiting Yao Yue.”
