Gu Jun glanced at Song Yuanhao outside, his expression turning strange.

Comprehension?

Although he didn’t know how Xu Yang managed to turn the tables and control that ray of spiritual light, the situation was already crystal clear.

This Song Yuanhao, what rotten luck.

He couldn’t help but feel a little pity.

Too tragic.

Seriously, you might as well have just died earlier on Qingzhou Yunshan.

And now you still have to suffer like this.

Gu Jun grinned, swept his sleeve, and rolled up Xu Yang as he walked out of the Barbarian God Hall.

“Hm? You’re actually still alive?”

Song Yuanhao was a bit taken aback, but as soon as he sensed Xu Yang’s nearly burnt-out, exhausted aura, he couldn’t bottle it up anymore and burst out laughing.

“Xu Yang, looks like your luck’s run out, huh?”

“I won’t die.”

“With the Barbarian God’s Relic in my hands, even if Can Sutian comes back, he might not be able to find me.”

“Today, I’ll use your blood to honor my father’s spirit first!”

“Someday, I’ll personally behead Can Sutian!”

Song Yuanhao’s eyes blazed with killing intent, hatred to the bone!

“Sigh!” Gu Jun couldn’t help but sigh.

“Gu Jun the Alchemy Emperor, heh, old bastard, this hall won’t let you off so easy.” Song Yuanhao gave Gu Jun a cold sidelong glance—he’d still be useful yet!

Who in this whole world can resist the temptation of an Alchemy Emperor?

Gu Jun looked at Song Yuanhao with pity again.

“Song Yuanhao, even without the Barbarian King’s help, you couldn’t comprehend that trace of spiritual light left by the Barbarian God!”

Xu Yang slowly opened his mouth.

The weak voice drifted to Song Yuanhao’s ears, making his face grow dark as the night.

“Xu Yang, you’re still talking tough at death’s door!”

“You’re a dead man, so you’re never gonna see Daqian’s end!”

“After you’re dead, I’ll take every single one of your women, and really have some fun, hahahaha!”

Laughter echoing wildly.

Suddenly.

The laughter stopped dead!

Song Yuanhao’s whole body shook, then shivered like a sieve, his features twisting, staring in terror as if he’d seen a ghost.

“Y-you… How is this possible?”

“Impossible!”

“Come back to me!”

Song Yuanhao stared dumbly at the spiritual light in Xu Yang’s hand, howling to summon it back.

But the light didn’t budge an inch—no response to his will at all!

“I nearly killed myself trying to comprehend it; only by relying on the Barbarian Race’s powerful bloodline and my father’s secret techniques could I barely keep it under control!”

“How did Xu Yang do it?”

“Damn it, why him?”

Song Yuanhao screamed inwardly, the barbarian tattoos on his body trembling violently, teetering on the edge of collapse.

Xu Yang smiled faintly: “You don’t even know what this thing is, so it’s no surprise you couldn’t comprehend it!”

“If you hadn’t used it against me, maybe things would’ve been troublesome for real; but if you didn’t use it, with Teacher here, you still couldn’t threaten me!”

“What a pity!”

Pfft!

Song Yuanhao spat a bloody arrow, his lips twitching uncontrollably.

“How the hell did you pull this off?”

Xu Yang smiled brilliantly: “Easy. I just looked at it twice and got it.”

Gu Jun nearly burst out laughing.

Stabbing straight at the heart!

Song Yuanhao completely broke down.

“You bastard, I’m gonna slaughter you!”

Boom!

Song Yuanhao lunged like a madman.

Xu Yang suddenly raised his hand, spiritual light bursting out.

Swoosh!

It was like Song Yuanhao got stuck in quicksand—his whole body froze.

Under the glow of the spiritual light, the fierce barbarian tattoos on his skin shattered, visible to the naked eye, bit by bit!

In the blink of an eye, they’d vanished without a trace.

Every one of those tattoos came from the spiritual light.

Now Xu Yang held the light—Song Yuanhao trying to use the Barbarian God’s power on Xu Yang was like smashing an egg against a rock!

Pfft!

Song Yuanhao’s skin split open, blood soaking his whole body as he twisted in despair, but like a child before a giant, nothing he did could budge the situation at all.

“Xu Yang, Xu Yang, you really deserve to die.”

He ground out these words in agony, grief and rage tearing him apart.

Thinking of his father, cut down with hardly any effort by Can Sutian, Song Yuanhao looked utterly wretched.

In front of Can Sutian, in front of Xu Yang, he and his father were clowns!

They thought they controlled everything, but it turns out they were just pieces on the board!

Pieces that shatter at the slightest squeeze!

“Even if I die, I won’t let you have it easy!”

“Explode!”

Song Yuanhao roared savagely, intending to detonate his True Monarch Blood Bone.

Gu Jun flinched, instinctively backing away.

But when Song Yuanhao shouted “explode!” and nothing happened, he couldn’t help but laugh awkwardly.

Damn, nearly scared me to death!

Song Yuanhao stood there blankly, glaring at Xu Yang in anger: “You…”

Xu Yang squinted and licked his cracked lips: “All that True Monarch Blood Bone, still got some Barbarian bloodline in you—Song Yuanhao, your whole body’s a treasure trove!”

“If you die just like this, wouldn’t that be a waste?”

Song Yuanhao shuddered from head to toe, eyes popping wide, a surge of terror overcoming him.

“No!”

He couldn’t accept it ending this way.

“Kill me.”

“Xu Yang, you bastard, you damn mongrel, just kill me already!!”

Xu Yang frowned slightly, his palm trembling as the spiritual light shimmered.

In an instant, Song Yuanhao’s shouting was cut off—he was completely locked in place by the spiritual light!

His eyes nearly burst out of their sockets, pupils darting madly, but even his fingers couldn’t twitch.

Xu Yang summoned the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod, slowly floating upward.

Smack!

Smack!

Song Yuanhao’s eye sockets burst, his skin splitting inch by inch.

He struggled with all his might, but couldn’t move a muscle.

Despair filled his eyes as that great tripod came crashing down at him.

“Xu Yang, you’ll die a miserable death…”

Swoosh!

The Divine Tripod engulfed him, and Song Yuanhao vanished without a trace.

“Damn, that’s tragic!”

Gu Jun stared at the now-empty air, couldn’t help but mutter.

Xu Yang’s mouth twitched: “Teacher, we almost got killed out there!”

“Ahem, you’re right!” Gu Jun snapped back to his senses and gave a dry cough.

“Boy, being with you is a real heart attack every day!”

“By the way, about that spiritual light—what’s the secret?” Gu Jun eyed the light curiously.

Xu Yang’s heart skipped a beat.

“Teacher, why don’t you try experiencing it for yourself? It should do you a lot of good.”

Now, the spiritual light was under his control!

Though still terrifying, it wasn’t like staring straight into that weird river anymore!

At Gu Jun’s level, he might actually harvest something from the river’s power.

Gu Jun hesitated, suspicion flickering across his face.

This Barbarian God’s Relic still left his heart pounding!

Honestly, as much as he hated to admit it, in terms of insight, even he had to bow to Xu Yang!

“Maybe I should pass—what if…” Gu Jun hesitated.

“Wait, what’s with that look?”

Gu Jun suddenly glared at him in anger.

Xu Yang said awkwardly, “Teacher, I didn’t mean anything.”

“Didn’t mean anything? Don’t lie—you totally did!”

“It’s just the Barbarian God’s Relic! You think I’m scared?”

“Hmph!”

“Wait, are you sure I won’t get stuck in there for good?”

Xu Yang’s mouth twitched, knowing the old man had been spooked after all.

Honestly, if it wasn’t for the Heaven Locking Three Seals, he wouldn’t have made it out, either.

But now, this spiritual light wasn’t what it once was.

Song Yuanhao just couldn’t control it!

“Teacher, I’m sure!” Xu Yang nodded emphatically.

Gu Jun hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, this time I’ll trust you!”

“Bring it on!”

Seeing his teacher look like he was about to march to the gallows, Xu Yang had to pinch himself to keep a straight face—poor old man, really having a rough day.
