The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1439 - 1440: The Turmoil of Accepting a Disciple

"We also hope to cultivate you as quickly as possible. With the realm of Divine Venerable Five Souls, you’re already able to challenge the Divine Venerate Eight Souls. Such natural talents surpass even Zhou Tianmo of the past. If you can break through to Divine Venerable Seven Souls soon, there will be few who can defeat you in Wraith Land."

Wang Mo Luo said calmly, all from Ye Mo’s perspective, wanting to help Ye Mo enhance his strength.

In fact, staying with these two had its advantages for Ye Mo, as he could monitor them. However, these two had such strong cultivation, both reaching Divine Venerable Nine Souls, that even the Wraith Demon Emperor dared not act rashly in the Devil Refining Gourd for fear of being detected by them.

Therefore, he definitely could not stay by their side.

"Thank you, Clan Leader and Vice Chieftain."

Ye Mo said respectfully, "I appreciate how you both value me, but you are both very busy. I don’t want to disturb you. Having my foster mother’s guidance is enough for me."

"Elder Mengxin indeed has the qualifications to guide you, but she is female, and there are certain differences in martial pursuits between men and women. So, it’s settled; I will discuss this with Elder Mengxin, and let me guide you."

Zhou Tianmo interjected, confident that if Ye Mo became his disciple, he could definitely shape Ye Mo into an obedient pawn.

"Vice Chieftain, what do you mean by this?"

At this moment, Mengxin walked in from outside and said calmly, "Ye Xiao is my foster son. His cultivation will be guided by me, so don’t trouble yourselves, Ye Xiao, let’s go!"

Mengxin had received a notice, knowing Zhou Tianmo had brought Ye Xiao to meet the Clan Leader, so she hurriedly came to help Ye Mo out.

"Elder Mengxin, I think Ye Mo should decide for himself."

Wang Mo Luo said flatly. To him, it didn’t matter who taught Ye Mo, as they were all disciples of the Wraith Clan. Although Mengxin’s lineage was still somewhat dissenting, the overall situation was set, and his position as Clan Leader was rock solid.

"Alright!"

Mengxin said calmly.

"Haha, Wang Mo Luo, I do like this Ye Xiao quite a bit. Although I haven’t become Ye Xiao’s master yet, I really should give him a meeting gift."

Zhou Tianmo said, waving his hand, revealing an ice-blue box. Through the box, the contents inside could be faintly seen.

"What is this?"

Ye Mo looked at the ice-blue box, curious.

"Zhou Tianmo, you’re really digging deep. You’re willing to bring out the Evil Spirit Ancient Realm."

Wang Mo Luo said with a smile.

"Evil Spirit Ancient Realm?"

Ye Mo was very curious.

"This Evil Spirit Ancient Realm is a mirror, sealed with Ten Thousand Year Icicle. Once brought out, its effect disappears immediately, so this mirror can only be used once."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said, "This mirror can replicate any martial skill, making it a life-saving trump card. If you encounter an overwhelming attack, just use the Evil Spirit Ancient Realm to replicate the same attack and neutralize your opponent’s."

"Such a magical mirror?"

Ye Mo was impressed, tempted by the mirror, but he also knew that accepting this gift meant becoming Zhou Tianmo’s disciple.

"Vice Chieftain, thank you for your kindness, but my foster mother has great kindness towards me, so I don’t want to disappoint her."

Ye Mo smiled gently, "So I will stay by my foster mother’s side."

Hearing Ye Mo’s words, Mengxin breathed a sigh of relief, her heart at ease. The Evil Spirit Ancient Realm, even she wanted it, after all, it was a life-saving item, and she was genuinely afraid Ye Mo might choose to become Zhou Tianmo’s disciple for it, which could expose the existence of the Wraith Demon Emperor and cause trouble.

Also, Ye Mo’s words were very reasonable.

"Haha, Ye Xiao, maybe you don’t know the use of the Evil Spirit Ancient Realm? I can honestly tell you, this Evil Spirit Ancient Realm can replicate an opponent’s attack once, helping you fend off attacks. Even those Supreme Elders want my Evil Spirit Ancient Realm, and I am reluctant to part with it."

Laughing, Zhou Tianmo looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider? Even if you become my disciple, Elder Mengxin won’t blame you."

"Thank you, Vice Chieftain, but your Evil Spirit Ancient Realm does interest me."

Hearing Ye Mo’s words, Wang Mo Luo raised an eyebrow. Did this mean Ye Mo had changed his mind?

"Haha, could it be you changed your mind? Want to acknowledge me as your master? Once you do, the Evil Spirit Ancient Realm will be your disciple gift."

Zhou Tianmo’s face showed a hint of a smile.

"I heard Vice Chieftain, your talents were extraordinary, and now you’ve reached the realm of Divine Venerable Nine Souls. Your strength must have reached an extremely high level."

Looking at Zhou Tianmo, Ye Mo couldn’t help but secretly plan. The Evil Spirit Ancient Realm was indeed a precious item, a complete life-saving trump card.

"On Wraith Land, those who can defeat me head-on are few and far between."

When Zhou Tianmo said this, his face showed pride, a naturally emanating arrogance. Even Wang Mo Luo and Mengxin had to admit this Zhou Tianmo was incredibly strong.

"Why not, let’s make a wager. If Vice Chieftain can push me back a hundred meters in one move, I will be wholeheartedly convinced and willing to acknowledge you as my master. Conversely, the Evil Spirit Ancient Mirror will be mine, how about it?"

Ye Mo showed a faint smile.

"Hmm?"

In an instant, the three were dumbfounded that Ye Mo wanted to challenge Zhou Tianmo. Though Ye Mo’s combat power was comparable to Divine Venerate Eight Souls, Zhou Tianmo was a true Divine Venerate Nine Souls powerhouse. Even if Ye Mo’s combat power matched Divine Venerable Nine Souls, he wouldn’t be able to withstand Zhou Tianmo’s move.

"Haha, Ye Xiao, could it be you want to become my disciple this way? To avoid making Elder Mengxin uncomfortable?"

Zhou Tianmo laughed, saying, "Honestly, while you have the strength to kill the Lord of Myriad Demons, the gap between you and me is significant, beyond estimation. Don’t say pushing you back with one move, I could kill you with a single strike."

"As long as Vice Chieftain doesn’t use spiritual attacks, you can’t utterly crush my body with a single move. Are you interested?"

Ye Mo said calmly.

"Alright, since you want to become my disciple so much, this master must guide you with one move. If you can withstand this move, the Evil Spirit Ancient Mirror is yours. Otherwise, you will be my disciple."

Zhou Tianmo had extraordinary natural talents, no weaker than Ye Mo in his youth. Not to mention now, even in his younger days, he could battle Ye Mo. Now he had long reached the Divine Venerable Nine Souls realm, and didn’t consider average Divine Venerable Nine Souls fighters worth noting.

He was secretly pleased; Ye Mo saw him as an ordinary Divine Venerable Nine Souls fighter. With Ye Mo’s abilities, he might withstand one move, but he wasn’t an ordinary martial artist. If he won against Ye Mo, he could accept such a genius as a disciple and nurture him, securing a powerful pawn.
