The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2052 - 2049: Zhen Suppresses the Blood Image
Previously on The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor...
Now.
Duomu Zhongjin’s words made the Blood Image recall Ye Xuan’s methods once again.
Only...
The Blood Image then thought of Zhou Youwei.
On Zhou Youwei, it had seen the shadow of a peerless powerhouse from the Ancient Immortal Realm.
This stunning young woman was definitely its enemy!
The strange infant girl clearly also sensed the misgivings in the Blood Image’s heart, so she sent it a voice transmission and began to persuade.
"Young Master Ye, how should we deal with this fiend?"
The gazes of all the Jiang Family members converged on Ye Sixing’s right hand.
Within the reversed-flow years, after sensing what had just happened, they already understood that the drop of blood in Ye Sixing’s palm was the culprit!
Seeing their own ancestral elder suffer such severe damage, their hearts were trembling in fear, yet a surge of murderous intent rose as well.
They wished they could tear the Blood Image into ten thousand pieces.
But they had no qualifications to make such a demand, since the Blood Image was not captured by them.
"I’ll handle it myself."
Ye Xuan spoke calmly, and at the same time released the white-robed elder. An invisible force held him up and sent him to stand before Jiang Zhao.
Jiang Zhao was very tactful; he immediately took the white-robed elder away for treatment.
Fortunately, this white-robed elder was in the Quasi-Emperor Realm. Although severely injured, he was still tenaciously healing himself.
He only needed some time and would certainly recover.
"This matter is more or less settled. I still have to head back to the Bronze Coffin once more."
Ye Xuan didn’t waste words and stated it directly.
When the Jiang Family members heard this, they naturally didn’t dare say anything needless.
"Xiao Xuan, about Great-Grandfather..."
The Jiang Family Head hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.
Jiang Ziyu was still by Ye Xuan’s side.
Ye Xuan slightly nodded and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll see to it that he wakes up."
The Jiang Family Head let out a breath of relief and cupped his hands, saying, "Then I’ll trouble you."
Although Ye Xuan’s mother Jiang Ye had to call him Grandfather, when it came to this great-grandson, he was actually very courteous.
Ye Xuan naturally understood this layer of familial ties; otherwise, he wouldn’t even bother with them.
"Sixing, come with us."
Ye Xuan looked at Ye Sixing and spoke softly.
"Alright!" Ye Sixing nodded.
And thus.
Ye Xuan, Zhou Youwei, Ye Sixing, the strange infant girl, the Blood Image, and Jiang Ziyu flew toward the Bronze Coffin once again.
Outside the Chaos.
The Ancient Cauldron still remained.
The Emperor Array had yet to be closed.
Not knowing the situation, the Jiang Family experts naturally didn’t dare touch the Ancient Cauldron lightly.
When Ye Xuan arrived, he waved his hand and moved the Ancient Cauldron aside.
The Jiang Family elder sealed within the Ancient Cauldron, whose body had previously been taken over by the Blood Image, had already fainted and had yet to awaken.
The Jiang Family experts nearby, seeing this, immediately rushed forward to administer aid.
Ye Xuan had them put away the Ancient Cauldron.
Kuang Nu reverted to human form and followed behind Ye Xuan.
The group stepped into the Chaos once more.
At this moment, the Chaos no longer roared and churned, but was deathly still.
The Bronze Coffin lay quietly there, motionless.
Before long, they returned to the Bronze Coffin.
Ye Xuan had Kuang Nu stand guard outside, then had the strange infant girl close the coffin lid, cutting off the outer world.
After that Ye Xuan signaled to Ye Sixing to release the Blood Image.
With a light toss from Ye Sixing, the Blood Image broke free from Ye Sixing’s suppression. The blood expanded within the Bronze Coffin, turning into a ferocious Dharma Form with three heads and six arms.
This was the Blood Image’s soul that had previously fought Ye Xuan.
It was also the Blood Image’s true form.
At this moment, the Blood Image stared nervously at Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei, fully on guard.
"Blood Image, I’ve already said what needed to be said. How you think it over is your own business."
The strange infant girl added a final sentence.
The Blood Image, which had turned into a three-headed, six-armed bloody ferocious Dharma Form, had its middle head facing Ye Xuan, its scarlet eyes flickering without stop.
It was pondering the matter as well.
Yet Ye Xuan paid no heed to the two of them. Instead, he used the Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power to heal Jiang Ziyu.
After being tossed about so many times, the last wisp of Jiang Ziyu’s vitality was extremely weak.
If it wasn’t protected, Jiang Ziyu’s soul fire would likely be extinguished again.
Only after stabilizing Jiang Ziyu’s condition did Ye Xuan turn his gaze to the Blood Image.
"What do you want to do?"
Seeing this, the Blood Image grew wary again, like a tiger baring its fangs, its aura violently shaking within the Bronze Coffin!
Only, with what had happened earlier, looking at the Blood Image now, it seemed rather bluff and bluster without real substance.
Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm as he said lightly, "The memories Duomu Zhongjin had about that person have already been erased. I’m wondering if you still have any."
At these words, the Blood Image was slightly stunned. "What person?"
Ye Xuan raised his brows a little and looked toward the strange infant girl.
At this moment the strange infant girl also looked thoroughly confused.
Because her earlier memories had long since dissipated.
But that was because she had erased that power herself, which led to the memories being lost.
The Blood Image had never experienced this, so why did it also lack those memories?
Ye Xuan clenched his large hand.
Boom!
The next instant, the Blood Image once again tasted that irresistible suppression, forcing it to compress again and again, turning back into a single drop of blood, flying uncontrollably toward Ye Xuan.
Great.
It had fallen into Ye Xuan’s hand again.
The Blood Image felt both stifled and shocked in its heart.
This time, it somewhat understood.
The power Ye Sixing wielded was somewhat similar to Ye Xuan’s, but not nearly as strong as Ye Xuan’s.
In the face of such a being, it absolutely could not let its true body manifest, or it would be directly suppressed.
This was the only lesson the Blood Image had drawn.
But it seemed...
It was utterly useless.
"Hm!?"
Yet at this moment, the Blood Image sensed a power that terrified it!
Ye Xuan was constantly devouring its Origin Power!
"What are you doing!?"
The Blood Image cried out in shock.
Ye Xuan ignored it.
The Blood Image tried to struggle, but found it was completely like a lamb waiting for slaughter.
It could only emit a shrill, miserable scream.
Its Origin Power was stripped away completely by Ye Xuan...
The Blood Image seemed to truly become just a drop of blood, no longer bright red, as if its vitality had been lost.
Just like the strange infant girl before.
But after swallowing the Origin Power from the Blood Image, Ye Xuan’s brows knit tightly.
There was no such power on the Blood Image.
Yet according to what Duomu Zhongjin had said earlier, both it and the Blood Image had been aided by that so-called "adult" to be revived.
The Blood Image was stronger than Duomu Zhongjin; there was no reason for that power to be planted in Duomu Zhongjin alone and not in the Blood Image.
Then there was only one possibility.
When Duomu Zhongjin erased that power, that so-called adult erased the power on the Blood Image as well.
The other side must have detected something.
At that moment, Ye Xuan once again felt that sensation.
The other party’s target was very likely him!
Ye Xuan did not rush to pass a brand-new "Origin Power" to the Blood Image, but instead fell into deep thought.
’Could it be that the Ancient Immortal Realm’s Origin Power is connected to me?’
Ye Xuan said to himself inwardly.
"Bai Ze!"
Ye Xuan called softly in his heart, knowing that Bai Ze had been watching but had not spoken.
"It cannot be spoken." Bai Ze’s voice remained gentle.
