Ye Jiu flicked the blood off his dagger, then kicked the corpse on the ground a few times, "Fucking hell, daring to mock me just now, you damn well deserved to die!"
Looking at the three corpses lying on the ground, Ye Jiu sat down with a thud, took a couple of deep breaths, but excitement sparkled in his pupils, "That damn near killed me!"
This battle had thoroughly consolidated Ye Jiu's realm; the foundation of his Imperial Path mid-stage was extremely solid now.
Moreover, in the fight against the three protectors of Xue Luo Palace, Ye Jiu's combat awareness, agility, and even his reaction speed had all significantly improved from before.
"When will Gao Quan and the others arrive?" Ye Jiu asked, sitting beside him.
"They'll be here by tomorrow at the latest!" Ye Jiu replied.
"Hmm," Ye Ling nodded, then turned his gaze toward the depths of the forest in the distance.
His eyes shimmered with a celestial luster, pondering something unknown.
