Old Mountain reluctantly gives Ye Xuan three ancient treasures: the Five Elements Great Demon Wheel, the Taiyi Golden Bowl, and the Nine Dragon Sealing Heaven Gate. After obtaining the treasures, Ye Xuan questions Old Mountain's potential connection to the Dou Tian Divine Domain, but Old Mountain departs, vowing not to return. Bei Yao Shenwu expresses concern that Ye Xuan was too lenient, while Ye Xuan implies he has information suggesting Dou Tian Divine Domain's past actions were not driven by negotiation. Their conversation then shifts to Zhou Youwei's complex feelings.

"Alright!"

Upon hearing Beiyao Shenwu’s shout, Ye Xuan didn’t say a word and directly made a getaway.

Beiyao Shenwu sensed something amiss, and then suddenly shouted, "Stop!"

Ye Xuan, however, did not turn his head and walked towards the depths of the Heavenly Pond Graveyard.

Beiyao Shenwu gritted her silver teeth, transformed into a Divine Rainbow, and instantly blocked Ye Xuan’s path. She stared at Ye Xuan, and said in a deep voice, "The matter with Mountain Que Immortal King is temporarily set aside, should we settle the score between us?"

Ye Xuan looked at Beiyao Shenwu, somewhat helplessly and said, "Haven’t we already had a fight?"

Beiyao Shenwu snorted coldly, "Does that even count?"

Ye Xuan raised his hands, with an innocent expression, "Can’t it just count as you winning?"

Beiyao Shenwu increased her decibels, "What do you mean count as me winning?"

Ye Xuan blinked his eyes, "Then how about it counts as me winning?"

Beiyao Shenwu looked at the shameless Ye Xuan and became increasingly angry, saying with a cold face, "No, we must have a battle to settle this, even if it doesn’t involve life and death."

Ye Xuan rubbed his chin, thoughtfully said, "Then it’s similar to an arranged battle, that seems okay too."

Beiyao Shenwu’s beautiful eyes emitted two beams of divine light, she smiled and said, "Then let’s do it!"

Ye Xuan looked at the battle-hungry Beiyao Shenwu, knowing that this giant really wanted to fight him to vent her anger.

So...

"I concede."

Ye Xuan did not hesitate at all.

Beiyao Shenwu suddenly froze, her beautiful eyes filled with anger: "Emperor Ye! You are the Undying Night Emperor, how can you concede?"

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes and said, "I can’t beat you, why can’t I concede?"

Beiyao Shenwu gritted her teeth and said, "Have you forgotten how you fought me back then?"

Ye Xuan waved his hand and said, "A hero doesn’t talk about past bravery."

Beiyao Shenwu stomped in anger, "Emperor Ye!"

That expression finally resembled a girl.

Looking at the still somewhat familiar Beiyao Shenwu, Ye Xuan laughed.

Beiyao Shenwu saw Ye Xuan’s smile and realized she had fallen into a trap. She then composed herself and looked at Ye Xuan with a serious expression, "This battle is unavoidable for you, just like you want to find those two who betrayed you."

Ye Xuan tilted his head, looking at Beiyao Shenwu with a strange expression, "I did not betray you."

"But you deceived me!"

Beiyao Shenwu’s anger surged up instantly.

Ye Xuan restrained his nonchalant attitude, calmly said, "Although I don’t know the kind of power you possess during the battle at the Immortal Ancient End, here in the Heavenly Pond Graveyard, even if you return to the state of those days, you are still not my match."

"On this point..."

Ye Xuan gazed at Beiyao Shenwu, "I suppose you know it better than I do, so a battle between the two of us is meaningless."

Beiyao Shenwu returned to calmness, looking at Ye Xuan, this big girl appeared very obstinate, with a firm gaze she said, "But without a true fight, I cannot swallow this anger."

Ye Xuan, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but sigh, "You!"

"Really uncomfortable without a beating."

Ye Xuan brushed his hair back, his gaze gradually becoming cold and fierce, "Fine, today this Emperor will let you recall the fear I instilled in you back then!"

Beiyao Shenwu felt an inexplicable heaviness in her heart upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words.

She knew the terror of Ye Xuan at his peak.

That was the supreme being who had the upper hand in their battle at Dao Chu Cliff.

"Bring it on!"

Beiyao Shenwu clenched her fists.

With Beiyao Shenwu’s motion, her wide sleeves instantly tightened, becoming a suitable combat tunic.

Her long hair also automatically twisted into a high ponytail at this moment.

At this moment, Beiyao Shenwu, apart from her fairy-like demeanor, also possessed a sense of decisiveness.

Beiyao Shenwu’s eyes opened shut, as if embodying the sun, moon, stars, and vast universe.

A shapeless, terrifying aura unfurled at this moment.

The surrounding Tomb Masters quietly fell asleep, merging with the cemetery soil.

They all knew that the upcoming battle would be earth-shattering.

They didn’t want to be affected.

That big girly woman truly didn’t know her limits, daring to challenge Emperor Ye.

From afar.

Seeing Beiyao Shenwu and his own master about to fight, Qiankun Ancestor felt somewhat melancholic, sighing repeatedly, "Can’t you just talk it out, why must you fight?"

Kuang Nu glanced at Qiankun Ancestor and raspily said, "It seems you have quite a fondness for this person?"

Qiankun Ancestor looked at the spirited Beiyao Shenwu in the distance, speaking slowly, "When I first met her, I was very young, she was powerful, even the master back then couldn’t suppress her immediately."

"Later, some things happened, and she became one of master’s followers, acting on master’s orders."

"Then, she recovered her memories and turned into what she is now."

Kuang Nu, after hearing this, curled his lips in mockery, "Your storytelling is quite ordinary."

Qiankun Ancestor unusually did not retort, resting his hands behind his head, "But it’s true."

Kuang Nu said nothing.

The little girl in black contemplated, "Big brother wants her to become our lady master?"

Qiankun Ancestor chuckled, "Actually, I think with Master’s ability, having multiple wives and a crowded harem would be normal, but Master isn’t that kind of person."

"Over the ages, countless people have wanted to fall for Master."

"There’s a saying that fits, passing through a forest of flowers, not a single leaf touches one’s body."

Boom!

As Qiankun Ancestor’s words fell.

Ye Xuan and Beiyao Shenwu had already commenced battle.

This time, it was a true fight.

Neither spoke.

Both were like human-shaped fierce beasts, engaging in fierce combat without any intention of dodging.

Undoubtedly, it was a clash of fists.

The first strike.

Was their fists colliding.

The terrifying strength immediately generated a horrifying airwave behind them, rushing out billions of miles.

Without any pause, after the first punch, they showcased a duel akin to the fiercest body cultivation battle.

Neither resorted to Daoist Magic or Divine Skills but purely collided with bodily strength.

Yet, at their stage, just relying on their bodies was enough to cause heaven and earth to tremble, the sun and moon to bow.

"Such incredible speed..."

Qiankun Ancestor, Kuang Nu, the little girl in black, and the Blood Slaughter Demon Emperor, along with many other ancient beings in Heavenly Pond Graveyard, after witnessing the battle, couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

The figures of the two were entirely indistinct.

Only able to perceive the terrifying power emanating from all corners of the Heavenly Pond Graveyard.

The two went from battling on the ground to the sky, then out of the sky, and back to the ground again, with the entire battlefield covering countless millions of miles.

Like two humanoid monsters.

The collision of each strike sent shockwaves raging across the Heavenly Pond Graveyard.

Even with the Heavenly Pond Graveyard’s Forbidden Power suppressing, the sedimented strength remained immensely terrifying.

If a Quasi-Emperor were present, they would surely be fearful.

Such power seemed capable of instantly shattering a Quasi-Emperor.

And yet, at this moment, Ye Xuan was merely a First Layer Undying Great Saint of the Great Saint Realm.
