The battle continued under the gloomy sky. Qianbei Ye stumbled backward and lifted his beautiful features while his demonic red eyes turned towards the black-robed man.

　　The black-robed man had remained silent but his gaze was as arrogant as ever as he focused his eyes coldly upon Qianbei Ye…

　　At that moment, both parties cut a sorry figure. Neither could gain the upper hand and though Cang Ming was more powerful than Qianbei Ye, he was still holding on despite being in extreme pain.

　　“This can’t keep going on.”

　　Zixie lowered his eyes to look at the woman in his arms. His demonic eyes flashed with anxiety as he said, “Little girl, you better wake up soon. If you don’t wake up, I’m afraid that Qianbei Ye can’t hold on much longer…”

　　The woman in his arms remained immobile as if she had not heard his voice at all. She was completely still in his arms.

　　Qianbei Ye was gradually slipping down from the sky but he persisted. His crimson robes looked even more alluring as it was stained with blood, making him look even more breathtaking.

　　“Cang Ming.”

　　Qianbei Ye suddenly lifted his head to smile at Cang Ming who was standing in front of him.

　　His smile was so beautiful that it caused every living thing in the world to lose color. It was as if he was the most beautiful thing to exist in this world.

　　“It’s no use for us to fight on like this. I can’t kill you and you find it difficult to kill me too! Why don’t we make another wager?”

　　Cang Ming stared at Qianbei Ye icily.

　　Though Qianbei Ye’s current level power may be lower than Cang Ming’s, he still found it very difficult to kill him without expending a huge amount of time and effort. Therefore, he sneered at this thought and asked, “What kind of wager?”

　　Qianbei Ye chuckled and curled his lips. “It’s very simple. We’ll just make a wager to see… Who can consume the other’s soul first!”

　　As long as one of them can consume the other’s soul, the former would become a cultivator at the Full Circle State! The loser would become nourishment for the victor’s breakthrough.

　　This means that they were putting their lives on the line with this wager!

　　“Hahaha, Qianbei Ye, you must know that your powers are no match for mine. If you want to wager our souls, nothing good can come out of it for you!”

　　Cang Ming burst into laughter and still refused to pay him any attention.

　　Cang Ming believes that he would most certainly be the one to break through to the Full Circle State! Qianbei Ye has no hope of ever achieving that!

　　Qianbei Ye smiled indifferently, “How would you know if you don’t give it a try?”

　　“Fine!” Cang Ming stared at the man’s indifferent feature and gritted his teeth as he spat, “If you want to make a wager with me, I will keep you company to the end! However, let me tell you that you’re destined to lose this bet!”

　　Because I will never lose!

　　Qianbei Ye did not say anything else as he sat cross-legged in the air and gently closed his eyes.

　　At his rank, he could manipulate formless objects like air to hold his weight so he had sat down in midair straightaway.

　　Cang Ming scoffed and sat in midair as well. He slowly closed his cold and arrogant red eyes but the corners of his lips remained curled in a disdainful smile.

　　In everyone’s eyes, Qianbei Ye and Cang Ming were merely resting in meditation at this moment. No one was aware of the competition happening between the two…

　　A faint hurricane rose from the two like a gravitational force which tried to suck each other’s soul and consume it!

　　Unfortunately, both men’s power should not be underestimated. It would not be easy to use this method to suck out the other’s soul…

　　Qianbei Ye’s face has turned even paler. He frowned and cold sweat began to drip from his forehead. However, he continued with his eyes closed and competed against Cang Ming who was seated in front of him.
