The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood - Chapter 288

Chapter 288

The sight of this attracted quite a lot of attention . Even the roughly one dozen members of the escort party had seen what was happening . When they noticed that Ye Mo was the one being pursued by the imperial guard, their expressions shifted greatly .

“Brother Hu, do we save him or not?” asked a woman .

“Let’s keep observing for now . If it is safe to do so, we will save him . If not, we might die together with him instead,” Brother Hu said while frowning .

“Ye Mo, if you are allowed to escape the Heaven Wall’s City, it will be too unbecoming of us, the imperial guards . I will capture you alive and deliver you to Young Master Cao . He will definitely reward me for it . With the reward I stand to gain, using this Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal on you is worthwhile,” said the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior with a faint smile . The other imperial guards behind him were also smiling sinisterly .

“You think that is enough to suppress me? You think too highly on that seal . ”

Rumble!

A rumbling explosion sounded from within the pagoda . This wasn’t the sound of Ye Mo being brushed by the pagoda . Rather, the sound came from the ruins . As for the pagoda, it was slowly being devoured by Ye Mo .

Ye Mo flew high up into the air with a crimson flag in his hand . That was the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag, currently shining with a crimson glow, looking incredibly vicious . When the imperial guards saw this, their expressions shifted drastically . All of them believed that it was actually the flag that had defeated the pagoda .

“Ye Mo, what is that flag? It does not look like a normal item . ”

“Of course it’s not a normal item . It is a Spirit Weapon that will send all of you to the afterlife . ”

Then, Ye Mo waved the flag . Numerous beams of crimson light shot out and converged above the imperial guards before forming numerous huge crimson flags that immediately began surrounding them . They were completed surrounded by the flags, with no way of escaping .

Immediately, miserable screams rang out . Violent energy surged out of the flag formation without stopping . No matter what they did, they could not escape the formation .

“This Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag is indeed powerful . It is actually capable of trapping Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warriors . ” Ye Mo sighed with admiration . However, he was also aware that this splendid effect was also in part due to his Dragon Power that had enabled him to continuously use this flag . After all, a certain degree of strength would be required to use any Spirit Weapons or Magic Weapons .

After trapping the imperial guards, Ye Mo shot straight towards the gate of the Heaven’s Wall City without hesitation . It would not be easy to fly out the tall city wall . The higher the height, the harder the flight would be . In any case, Ye Mo had yet to actually reached the level where he could form his energy wings .

“Whatever!” Just as Ye Mo wanted to scale the walls, numerous imperial guards appeared above the walls . All of them were holding crossbows and raining arrows down at him, blocking all his escape path . A crossbow attack at this level was something capable of filling even an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior with holes .

“Huah!” Pouring his Dragon Power on the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag, Ye Mo waved the flag around again . A huge crimson flag appeared in the sky and covered Ye Mo’s entire body . The arrows all landed on the flag, unable to do anything to Ye Mo .

“This Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag is indeed powerful . But normal warriors will not have sufficient Yuanli to fully utilize its power . ”

After Ye Mo blocked the arrows, the imperial guards reacted quickly and started shooting another round of arrows at him . Of course, Ye Mo would not give them a chance to attack .

He waved his Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag and sent rays of crimson beams out to envelope the entire wall . Numerous huge flags appeared and trapped all the imperial guards on the wall . Ye Mo did not hesitate and immediately shot straight towards the wall .

Boom!

Suddenly, a purple lightning bolt descended from the sky . It was as thick as a tree and with a momentous might, it landed on Ye Mo’s head . It arrived quickly and blasted Ye Mo’s body, sending him tumbling down on the ground like a kite with a broken string .

Then, with a purple flash, a figure appeared midair . He had a pair of purple lightning wings that were flapping about as he hovered there . With each flap, lightning would curl around him .

“Surprisingly, you actually have the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag on you . This Spirit Weapon is an evil weapon . This point alone qualifies you for the death sentence . Moreover, you had also killed so many of our Cao Clan’s trainee soldiers . Death is your only ending . Tell me, how do you prefer to die?”

Cao Zheng looked at Ye Mo with a gaze a superior being would use on an inferior being . Ye Mo trembled and shook off the lightning from his body . After wiping the bloodstain from his mouth, he said, “The Cao Clan’s trainee soldiers had forcefully intruded upon the rear hall of the Qi Clan . As the captain of the Qi Clan’s escort party, I have the authority to kill them . ”

“A warrior that comes from some countryside like you is being so arrogant at Heaven’s Wall City just because you have some talent . Do you know that in Heaven’s Wall City, you are nothing?”

Abruptly, Cao Zheng moved and turned into a vicious eagle that charged at Ye Mo . A purple lighting spear immediately formed in his talons and stabbed at Ye Mo’s direction .

“Die!”

“This is bad!” When Ling’er saw this, her expression shifted . Unfortunately, it was already too late for her to do anything . Ye Mo waved the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag and formed layers of defensive barriers with the numerous flags that appeared . Unfortunately, the layers of barriers were akin to paper before Cao Zheng . With wide eyes, Ye Mo watched on as the purple spear stabbed at him .

Bang!

A black flash appeared and blasted the purple lightning spear sideways . Senior Ying appeared and stood before Ye Mo with his hands clasped behind him .

“Senior Ying, what is the meaning of this?” Cao Zheng asked coldy while looking at Senior Ying from high above .

“I owe Ye Mo a favor . I hope you, Young Master Cao, can give me face and let him off this time,” Senior Ying said .

“Give you face?” Cao Zheng sneered and arrogantly said, “How much is your face even worth? You are merely a servant of the Qi Clan . You are nothing to a noble like me . Since you insist on protecting Ye Mo, I will have to capture you as well . ”

“Senior Ying, thank you . But I think it’s still better for you to leave . ”

This Cao Zheng was one of the elites of the young generation here at Heaven’s Wall City while his father was favored by the emperor . His background was nearly without equal . Even if Senior Ying was a True Energy Realm expert, things wouldn’t end well for him if he provoked someone like this .

“Ye Mo! You!”

Ye Mo waved his hand and said, “You don’t have to say anything . I understand . It won’t be that easy for that Cao Zheng to kill me . ”

“Yeah, if you want to kill our captain, you have to first ask us about it . ”

Suddenly, Brother Hu and the rest of the party charged out and stood beside Ye Mo .

“You are thinking of stopping me with just these guys?”

Cao Zheng hovered in the air and did not bother stopping them . With his status and strength, it would not matter however many people arrived .

“You guys…” Ye Mo looked at the newcomers and a layer of mist covered his eyes . Not many people would stand up for him when he was in trouble .
