Bloodbath!

Young master Gao swiftly ran toward Hao Meng, intending to kill. 

Brandishing his sword coated with mana imbued, he lunged forward like a ravaging beast.

'Move to the side, step backward, and use your sword like I instructed you to.'

Said the red light beside Hao Meng.

He is holding a sword while in a defensive stance.

Ting! Ting! Ting!

The duo clashes with sparks with each collision.

'He's strong!'

Hao Meng thought, even now, he couldn't believe that the person he crippled would become this strong. 

He also had a question: what are those blue lights covering his sword and his body?

'What do you think it is? Are you familiar?'

The red light beside him could only seem to shake its head.

'I don't know. I, the former Empress of the Nine Haven realm, almost saw everything in this other realm but this energy. I still didn't know what this is.'

Bang! 

Hao Meng was kicked in the stomach.

He was thrown far away from the distance.

'What is it now?'

Hao Meng desperately asked, his hands shaking from the strong force of the enemy. 

'Give me a few moments. His fighting style is flawless. It's like he's been fighting for years and everything was basic, solid, and simple.'

Hao Meng also felt it, the man in front of him. He knew he would be overpowered if he attacked.

That's why he is focusing everything on defense.

'The way he handled a sword was too flawless, and he is using everything in his arsenal, kicks, punches, as long as he would land a hit.'

Hao Meng's sweat trickled.

'I already knew that.'

He replied with difficulty breathing.

The words are not helping him, and he is only wasting so much time.

'Give me more time. I will analyze his demonic energy and the blue aura surrounding his body.'

Wam!

Hao Meng pushed the young master Gao backward.

However, he was cut on his chest. 

It's not that deep, but it was extremely painful like the blue aura was eating his spiritual energy.

"Gah!"

Hao Meng coughed up a mouthful of blood. 

He felt like no matter what he does, the bandit's young master in front of him is overpowering him. 

'Should I use that ability?'

Hao Meng asked while circulating his spiritual energy.

'We don't have a choice. If it doesn't work because of his peculiar ability, we would be in an extremely tough time.'

The red light became fog, soon it seeped into his body. 

'We don't have a choice!'

Hao Meng extended his arms.

"Blood Miracle!"

Young master Gao who was calm and collected felt Dread.

Ding!

「 The third foe used Blood Miracle! 」

His eyes observed the chest of Hao Meng.

'Blood Miracle! Can make Hao Meng strengthen his body and spiritual power depending on the damage he received.'

'An overpowered ability that made him fight and win battles against stronger or higher cultivation masters.'

This terrified young master Gao, but he didn't have a choice.

His life is on the line!

Suddenly, despite circulating that martial technique that he learned from the former empress of Nine heavens, Hao Meng noticed that the wound on his stomach was not healing.

Young master Gao, who was watching his bleeding chest, smiled. 

'His Blood Miracle ability is not working on my Mana or Heavenly Origin aura! Hahaha! You're dead!'

Young master Gao will not waste this opportunity. 

The difference in stats, young master Gao, grabbed Hao Meng on his feet and slammed him to the ground. 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every impact makes the ground tremble!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, a barrage of flame enveloped him.

Ding!

「 Sacred fire affects the user! 」

Young master Gao was shocked again. When he looked where it came from, it was from Wang Shaoshi.

'The luck is affecting this son of heaven!'

Young master Gao realized. 

However, the attack was naught, and it didn't even hurt him in the slightest.

All of a sudden, young master Gao's ears felt hot. 

Ding!

「 The user is affected by burns! Estimated time of death: 5 minutes! 」

'Huh?'

Young master Gao eventually remembered from the description of Sacred fire why Wang Shaoshi was called the sacred fire in the novel.

"Burn?"

Young master Gao froze.

'I am going to be burned to death?'

He thought, as, in the memories, the sacred fire is not a pure attack martial technique but a martial curse. 

It will burn his soul if he didn't kill or eradicate the one who cast this martial curse.

'I make it!'

Wang Shaoshi thought.

Her sacred ability was not mastered but for some unknown reason or maybe because of desperation, she pulled it off.

She fell to the ground with her brother as the spiritual energy in her body was depleted. 

Wang Zu, on her side supported her and tried to inject some into her to keep her alive.

"You!"

Young master Gao grumbled as he looked at Wang Shaoshi with Wang Zu supporting her. 

'This is impossible! She is not supposed to know this stuff this early in the story! The story is changing.'

Even though young master Gao couldn't accept it, he knew that this was real. 

"Bastard!"

This time, young master Gao lunged at Wang Shaoshi who was now down to the ground.

'My Mana imbued is not working, it's not going away!'

Young master Gao felt like he was weakening, and his inside was burning. 

He knew that his ability Mana imbued won't work because it didn't have full resistance to the curse but only had thirty percent of it.

"I'm going to kill you!"

With no obstruction, young master Gao reached and grabbed the neck of Wang Shaoshi who exhausted her spiritual power.

All of a sudden, he froze again!

Ding!

「 The burn flared! 」

Young master Gao's skin slowly burned, his strength was slipping.

Young master Gao did not take his arms off the neck of Wang Shaoshi.

He was about to finish her with his two hands but a sword went past him.

"You!"

Young master Gao evaded and looked at the direction where it came from.

Hao Meng ran so fast, when he reached them, he tried to slice young master Gao off. 

'You are the reason I was burned! My luck was lowered by thirty percent! It's it?!'

Young master Gao was furious and knew it was impossible to be burned or learning the scared fire by Wang Shaoshi.

The chances of him being burned were slim but Wang Shaoshi somehow made it.

Reducing his luck was probably the reason.

'You can do it! He is tired! Your fiance did a good job!'

Said the red fog beside Hao Meng was also dead tired and severely injured. 

Wam!

Wang Zu punched young master Gao with his might, however, young master Gao was much stronger! 

Peng!

Young master Gao head-butted Wang Zu. He opened his mouth and bit the shoulder of Wang Zu and couldn't resist.

Hao Meng trusted his sword but young master Gao waited for this opportunity and using his mouth, young master Gao lifted the massive body of Wang Zu to defend himself.

'Huh?'

Hao Meng was too stunned by the brutality and will to live of young master Gao so his neck was also captured.

Swack!

A dagger entered young master Gao's chest!

Wang Shaoshi also struck young master Gao with her hidden dagger.

Ding!

「 The user only has fifteen seconds to live. 」

Young master Gao was also desperate. His eyes, lips, ears, and nose were releasing hot air. 

"I will not last. I might as well take you three with me!"

He said, and then he closed his eyes. Mustering all his strength to kill when suddenly, three shadows came to them.
