“Little girl, strictly speaking, you and I have a master-disciple relationship.”
"Although Lin Xiao was independent in thought and personality, he was still my secondary body that time. You can be considered half of my master, hehe..."
The Blood Emperor let out a sinister laugh, then looked at Qin Xuantian and said, "You junior do have some ability. My defeat to you that time wasn't unjust."
Qin Xuantian remained silent with a cold expression. Liu Ruyan, on the other side, said, "I guessed your relationship with Lin Xiao as soon as I arrived. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you. It's to settle the karmic debt between us. Also, there are some scores I need to settle with you."
"Oh? Hehe, I've lived for so many tens of thousands of years, and this is the first time a junior has come to settle accounts with me. Tell me, little girl, what accounts do you want to settle with me?"
Blood Emperor stood calmly with his hands behind his back, smiling as he looked at Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan was an absolute beauty and a stunningly talented empress. If she were younger, he would definitely keep her captive and play with her for tens of thousands of years.
Unfortunately, he's too old and useless now. He's only interested in the rich and vibrant blood energy emanating from Liu Ruyan, and he can't muster any interest in that aspect.
A chilling killing intent flashed in Liu Ruyan's cold, indifferent eyes as she said, word by word, "Chi Shang's debt!"
"Back then, when Chi Shang fell into the demonic path, it was you who secretly orchestrated it, wasn't it?"
"Chi Shang? If you hadn't mentioned that name, I would have almost forgotten that such a person existed."
The Blood Emperor still wore a calm and composed smile as he said, "Back then, I did indeed play a trick, but that was because his obsession was too strong. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to break his Dao heart so easily with my Nightmare Fallen God Curse, allowing me to control his mind."
Liu Ruyan's eyes flashed with even more murderous intent, but her voice remained calm: "Although I rejected his affections, he has left many memorable moments in my life. We may not have reached the level of lovers, but he can be considered my only confidant. Your actions against him are touching my sore spot."
"So his obsession stemmed from you, no wonder."
A look of realization dawned on the Blood Emperor's eyes, and he said with a smile, "I accept this debt; it's what I owe you."
"That's only one aspect."
"Hmm... I think I know what the second one is."
The Blood Emperor thought for a moment and then laughed, "I suppose it was because I used Chi Shang's soul for a soul sacrifice, refining his divine soul essence and merging it into the soul of my previous body, that you mistakenly thought that my previous body was Chi Shang's reincarnation, right?"
"I did take Lin Xiao as my disciple because of my suspicions, but that's not the second thing I want to settle with you. The second thing is that you caused me to have a bad karmic connection with Chi Yuan because of this!"
“I could have chosen not to send the Hate Heaven Gu to help Ye Chen, but because of the significant karmic entanglement between me and Lin Xiao, I had to settle this karmic debt first. Otherwise, once Ye Chen died, I don’t know how long I would have to carry this karmic burden. But it was precisely because I helped Ye Chen that I incurred a karmic debt with Chi Yuan, which forced me to personally get involved.”
"Although I don't mind getting involved myself, the feeling of being forced to act by cause and effect is very unpleasant to me. So you can't blame anyone else for your demise today. If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for getting entangled in my karma back then!"
Liu Ruyan gently stroked the jade Gu worm on the back of her index finger, calmly recounting the cause and effect with the Blood Emperor that spanned ten thousand years. Her last sentence was like a verdict, sentencing the Blood Emperor to death.
"Hehehe~ Hahahaha..."
Upon hearing the last sentence, the Blood Emperor couldn't help but burst into laughter, shaking his head as he said, "These young people nowadays are becoming more and more arrogant and ignorant, showing absolutely no respect for their elders. It seems that this continent has forgotten the fear of being dominated by the Blood Moon for twenty thousand years."
"Very well, today I'll let you, a junior, see for yourself how my Blood Moon has been able to dominate the Spirit Origin Continent for twenty thousand years!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Blood Emperor's scarlet eyes burst forth with endless blood light. Then, the space where the three of them were instantly transformed, and they arrived in a world filled with scarlet blood mist, where the sky was dyed red with blood, and a huge blood moon hung high above.
This is not an illusion, but a real world evolved from the Blood Emperor's Dao Fruit.
The three were still in the Tianyuan Plane, but their bodies had entered a realm within a realm.
Since it is a world evolved from the Blood Emperor's Dao Fruit, the laws of the entire world are naturally under the Blood Emperor's control. Everything in the world can be used by the Blood Emperor, so it can be said that he has an absolute home-field advantage.
This shows that the Blood Emperor's cultivation level was so high that he could not seize the initiative without a cultivation level far exceeding that of Liu Ruyan and Qin Xuantian.
At this moment, the Blood Emperor quickly formed a series of hand seals, and then created a clone that looked exactly like him.
This is an advanced version of the Ultimate Soul Splitting Technique, the Ultimate Incarnation Technique, which can not only split the soul but also the physical body.
At his peak, the Blood Emperor could create three avatars at once, each possessing the strength of his original body. However, now, due to a severe lack of blood energy, he can only create one avatar, which possesses only 20% of the strength of his original body.
Even if it's only 20%, it'll be enough to deal with Qin Xuantian.
As soon as this avatar appeared, it followed the same method and absorbed Qin Xuantian into its own Blood Moon World, thus creating a one-on-one situation between the two sides.
"You're all talk and no action, so why are you afraid of us joining forces?"
A mocking smile appeared on Liu Ruyan's lips as she spoke sarcastically.
"You can't deny getting old, unlike you young people who have so much energy you can't use it all up."
The Blood Emperor said with a hint of melancholy.
"If you know you're old, you should be lying in your coffin. That's where you old zombies belong. Coming out here and jumping around is just asking for death."
Liu Ruyan spoke calmly, slowly raising her right hand, "You think that moving Qin Xuantian away will make it easier to deal with us? Little do you know, this will only hasten your death."
"With Qin Xuantian here, I still have to worry about his life and death. Once he leaves... no one can stop me!"
A chilling smile flashed in Liu Ruyan's eyes. She then raised her finger and pointed it at the Blood Emperor's chest. With a whoosh, the Hatred Heaven Gu on her index finger shot out at the speed of light, instantly piercing through the Blood Emperor's chest.
At the same time as the weapon pierced through the Blood Emperor's chest, an overwhelming hatred, enough to drive a high-level saint mad instantly, transformed into a cloud of sinister black energy that spread from the Blood Emperor's chest.
It was as if billions of insects were tearing and devouring the Blood Emperor's flesh and blood. The black mist formed from this hatred corroded and swallowed the Blood Emperor's flesh and bones at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few breaths, it corroded the Blood Emperor completely, leaving not even a trace.
"Heh heh, killing me in the Blood Moon World is no easy task."
A cloud of blood mist condensed into a ball, and in the blink of an eye, it manifested the body of the Blood Emperor. He looked at Liu Ruyan with a smile as if nothing had happened and said, "The Blood Moon World is my body, and my body is also the Blood Moon World. As long as there is a grain of sand or a wisp of mist left in the Blood Moon World, I can be resurrected indefinitely."
"You are no match for me."
