Upon hearing Mo Yu mention the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit, Yan Li's expression instantly changed.
Possessing such a rare treasure was a well-guarded secret. Even in the Chu Yun Empire, few people knew about it. How could Mo Yu, someone from the faraway Jia Ma Empire, possibly be aware?
"Surrender the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit peacefully, and perhaps you'll still have a chance to return to the Chu Yun Empire alive," Mo Yu said coldly, glancing around the remote inn.
If it weren't for the spatial mark he had placed on Yan Li, Mo Yu wouldn't have known that the Chu Yun Empire had such a secret intelligence base hidden in the slums of Jia Ma Holy City.
"Hmph, foolish brat! Before Fa Ma and the others arrive, I'll deal with you first!"
Yan Li's face darkened as he responded icily.
Although he feared Fa Ma and the others, that didn't mean a mere youngster could threaten him, the dignified vice president of the Chu Yun Empire's Alchemist Association!
Seeing Yan Li's arrogance, Mo Yu shook his head slightly and thought to himself, "She Lao, I'll leave this man to you. The Alchemist Grand Meeting is about to end, and Fa Ma and the others will arrive soon. We need to finish this quickly."
Mo Yu didn't want anyone else to get involved, as both the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill were treasures he had no intention of sharing. The best option was to kill Yan Li before Fa Ma arrived and claim everything for himself.
"Leave it to me. A mere eight-star Dou Ling, I'll finish him off in the blink of an eye," She Lao's sinister, icy voice echoed in Mo Yu's mind.
Hearing She Lao's response, Mo Yu chuckled and nodded.
Although She Lao had consumed a significant amount of his bloodline power back in the Mulan Empire, dealing with a Dou Ling was still more than within his capabilities.
"Yan Li, since you refuse to drink the toast, you'll drink the punishment. Today, you won't be leaving the Jia Ma Empire alive," Mo Yu said with a cold smile, slowly closing his eyes.
Seeing Mo Yu's strange behavior, Yan Li frowned in confusion. Moments later, his face dramatically changed as he sensed an overwhelmingly powerful aura suddenly emanating from the young man's body.
"A Dou Wang? Dou Huang!?"
Feeling the increasingly terrifying pressure, Yan Li's grim face twisted in shock.
First, he had encountered Yan Xiao, a mere youth who was already a fourth-tier alchemist, at the Alchemist Grand Meeting.
Now, he was facing a twenty-year-old Dou Wang or possibly even Dou Huang powerhouse. What on earth was going on in the Jia Ma Empire for such monstrous talents to appear one after another?
The ominous feeling in Yan Li's heart intensified.
"Wait! I'll give you the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit," Yan Li said, his face shifting rapidly between emotions before he decisively surrendered.
Mo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, sneering. "Oh? Too bad just one Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit won't save your life now. Hand over the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill you made during the competition as well."
Hearing this, Yan Li's expression darkened even more. Both the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill were incredibly valuable treasures, yet the youth before him intended to take them all. Yan Li had never suffered such a loss in his life.
A trace of malice flickered in Yan Li's eyes, but it disappeared just as quickly. In the next moment, he forced a respectful expression onto his face.
"Fine, I'll give you both the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill. Just spare me," Yan Li said humbly.
"Then hand them over first," Mo Yu said indifferently.
"Please wait a moment," Yan Li responded.
Seeing Mo Yu agree, a meaningful smile crept onto Yan Li's lips. He slowly moved his hand towards his black spatial ring as if preparing to retrieve the items.
As he edged closer to Mo Yu, his movements slowed, and suddenly, a crazed expression appeared on his face.
"Die!" Yan Li roared.
At that moment, a vial containing a sinister green liquid appeared in Yan Li's hand, and he hurled it straight at Mo Yu.
The eerie green liquid enveloped Mo Yu for several moments before a gentle breeze slowly dispersed it, revealing a smug Yan Li.
"You little pest! This vial of Netherworld Death cost me a fortune to buy from a poison master. It's colorless and odorless, but once it touches you, every time you circulate your Dou Qi, it will spread throughout your body.
Soon, it will corrode and destroy your flesh. Even a Dou Wang expert would struggle against it, and it could even lead to death. Now you know the price of provoking me! Not everyone deserves my submission!" Yan Li said, his voice full of madness and satisfaction as he watched Mo Yu.
Although Yan Li didn't fully understand how the young man had displayed such strength, he had once used this poison to incapacitate a Dou Wang expert and was confident that Mo Yu would suffer the same fate.
"Oh? Is that so? Too bad your poison is rather mediocre," Mo Yu's calm voice sounded out.
Just as Yan Li was reveling in his triumph, he saw a strange purple-gold light flash from Mo Yu's body. With that eerie light, wisps of green gas—the same as the poison he had thrown—began to rise from Mo Yu.
"What?!"
Yan Li's face was filled with disbelief as he watched Mo Yu expel the Netherworld Death poison from his body with ease.
This poison was powerful enough to trouble even a Dou Wang expert. In the Chu Yun Empire, known for its many poison masters, there were only a few capable of concocting such a deadly toxin.
Yet today, it had failed miserably in the hands of a young man.
If word of this got back to the Chu Yun Empire, it would undoubtedly shock many poison masters.
But how could Yan Li have known that Mo Yu's She Lao, a mighty expert of the Snake-People Tribe, was also a poison master? To him, such poison was insignificant.
"Since you refuse to be honest, you can obediently die now," Mo Yu said impatiently as time dragged on. His silver eyes gleamed coldly, and the purple-gold light around him intensified. A terrifying aura surged forth.
Feeling this overwhelming pressure, Yan Li's face darkened. He had severely underestimated this youth's strength.
Although Mo Yu might not be on the same level as Fa Ma and the others, the gap wasn't large. When had such a powerful figure appeared in the Jia Ma Empire?
With death looming closer, Yan Li could no longer afford his dignity.
"My lord, I'll give you everything. Please spare my life!" Yan Li hurriedly removed the black spatial ring from his finger and, with trembling hands, handed it over to Mo Yu.
"Too late!" Mo Yu sneered, his lips curling upward. He slowly raised his right hand, and the mysterious purple-gold light instantly transformed into a powerful beam that shot directly at Yan Li.
Seeing this terrifying beam, Yan Li's face contorted in fear. A chilling sense of death overwhelmed him.
As he attempted to dodge, he found himself immobilized by the crushing pressure that pinned him down.
"No!"
In this hopeless moment, Yan Li let out a hysterical scream, his face twisted in despair. His gaze filled with venomous hatred as he stared at Mo Yu.
But no matter how unwilling he was to die, with She Lao making a move personally, there was no escape for him.
The purple-gold beam shot through Yan Li's forehead like a laser, leaving a small, bloody hole from which blood steadily trickled.
Yan Li collapsed to the ground, his body lifeless. He had been killed instantly.
After successfully killing Yan Li, She Lao's power gradually receded from Mo Yu's body.
Now back in control of his own body, Mo Yu wasted no time. He leapt over to Yan Li's corpse and looked down at the lifeless eyes, filled with resentment, without any change in expression.
He removed the black spatial ring from Yan Li's hand and, with his spiritual power on par with that of a fourth-grade alchemist, easily erased Yan Li's soul imprint.
Once his soul force entered Yan Li's ring, Mo Yu quickly scanned its contents. His attention was immediately drawn to a corner of the ring.
Sensing the unique energy fluctuations, Mo Yu's soul force paused on a certain fruit in the corner of the ring.
The fruit was entirely red, looking as if it had been carved from the finest ruby. It exuded an aura of royal nobility.
Around the fruit, intricate patterns resembling blood vessels slowly spiraled, giving it an air of unparalleled grandeur.
Seeing this rare treasure, a smile crept across Mo Yu's face. "The Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit, finally mine!"
