With a loud thunderclap formed a massive lightning pool around Ye Yuyan obliterating everything in its path. The lightning pool slowly cooled as the debris settled but there was still crackling of lightning and a strong smell of burnt wood.

The light of the lightning burst throughout the village almost blinding everyone who was looking on. Knighted Maven and Yunshi seemed unfazed as they noticed the fluorescent blue light.

Only Nesilia who was close by seemed confused by it. She flew back quickly without a moment's hesitation. The only person in the kingdom with the power of thunder at that level was the Third Prince.

It was once said that on the day of his birth there were 9 thunderclaps, an omen of his great destiny. He had a Lightning Physique and one of the rare warriors to tap into the powers of tribulation.

As Nesilia flew over the last of the tower debris she came upon a stone-faced Han Yi. All over his body stream lightning serpents as even his hair crackled with electrical fluctuations.

'Why is the prince activating his Thunder form?' She questioned in her head, the prince's eyes were focused in front of him. The smoke and ash started to dissipate and Nesilia followed the prince's gaze to the ash.

As the ash parted there appeared a cold young man with bewitching dark eyes and a charming smile. In his hands was an unfurled blank scroll along it danced electric currents.

"Ji Shu..." Nesilia unconsciously said

"Your Highness, why so hasty?" Ye Yuyan chuckled coldly around Han Yi congealed from the currents more thunder serpents. Ten of them bounced off his body biting towards Ye Yuyan, the serpent's eyes shined with a red and blue dangerous light.

Ye Yuyan clapped his palms together and his raised a pointed finger at the incoming serpents. The scroll flew forward at the incoming serpents, a bolt of lightning streamed out of the scroll and shot out. The electrical force slammed the serpents far away as their forms became unstable and turned into tiny lightning pools.

"A reversal scroll! Where does he get all these scrolls?!?" Nesilia couldn't help but wonder. In her eyes, Ye Yuyan became increasingly more mysterious. As if he was obscured by a heavy fog that hid away all his secrets.

"You have a lot of tricks wanderer." Han Yi sneered as his eyes scanned the scroll.

"But that thing can't contain my power. It's already corroding now, how many more of those do you have?" He said as holes started to appear on the scroll, it looked close to disintegrating.

"You're right about that your highness but I wasn't expecting that to protect me." Ye Yuyan laughed as something started to ripple above his head.

As the rippling intensified a mirage of a moon condensed in the sky. It was an illusory blue moon that shined with a blue and ethereal light down onto Ye Yuyan. The light congealed into a blue mist that surrounded Ye Yuyan as his eyes shined beautifully underneath the blue of the moon.

Around Ye Yuyan's body, the blue mist twisted and waved like flames in the wind. His eyes stared down Han Yi as he flicked his finger.

Suddenly the mist turned into a blade as it flew at Han Yi. Han Yi in response punched out with another exterminating punch. The Lightning parted the mist blade easily but the mist coiled and Ye Yuyan was quick to raise his hand and squeeze.

The mist wrapped around the incoming lightning stream and crushed it down. The freezing power seemed to cool the lightning and crushed it. Han Yi's eyes became serious as he no longer underestimated Ye Yuyan.

"So you have a little skill for a spy." Han Yi mocked as the lightning intensified on his body.

"Don't be so rash your highness." Ye Yuyan joked as his frost mist increased in response.

"Do you think you'll be able to leave unscathed?" Han Yi asked coldly.

"Why I never intended to leave. Instead, I hoped we could talk." Ye Yuyan chuckled with a knowing smile.

"Talk what? Your terms of surrender?!?" Han Yi intoned with a little anger.

"I just want to cooperate with you on getting Illathar's inheritance." Ye Yuyan said with a hopeful tone.

"What?!? How did you know that?" Han Yi roared as the lightning on his body erupted to a terrifying extent. His killing intent grew to the point of suffocation at the mention of his secret.

"To think you would discern that much. You definitely must die!" Han Yi said with deathly certainty.

The lightning seethed on Han Yi body as the currents all condensed onto his right arm. It slowly congealed taking the form of a hiltless longsword with strange nomological inscriptions.

"Sword as one, his Highness has already reached that realm." Knighted Maven said as he stood atop the rubble of a small brick home watching the battle.

Behind him appeared Yunshi, draped on his back was a remnant patch of blue fur. Knighted Maven turned back and made silent eye contact with Yunshi before looking back at the battle.

"That kid is hiding his power! To be able to block the prince's strike, he's no weak character." Knighted Maven praised with a calm knowing smile.

"No match." Yunshi mumbled and Knighted Maven looked back and asked: "No match?"

Yunshi's gaze turned to the fight and stared at the lightning sword in the prince's hand.

"He's no match for him." Yunshi said blandly

"Who's no match for who? Ji Shu or ...His Highness?" Knighted Maven asked quizzically

But before Yunshi could respond, the world became lit up in blue light. The skies seemed to rumble as Han Yi's sword came down. A river of lightning struck out as his sword faded into it, the stream tore apart the ground as it headed towards Ye Yuyan.

Ye Yuyan jumped backing seemingly retreating and the current curved following his fleeing form. The icy mist followed at Ji Shu's feet becoming a defensive cloud as he weaved away from the currents of lightning.

His body descended to the ground as the lightning struck down at him. He raised a palm making the blue mist congealed on top of his head. All the mist in the area gathered together and the temperature started to drop.

It congealed into a blue moon the size of 3 people over his head. At that moment, the lightning struck down on the thick layers of ice.

The streams of electrical energy crackled on top the ice only smoothing it out. Ye Yuyan squeezed his palms shut and the moon exploded out completely dispelling the lightning.

Ye Yuyan's eyes turned back to the prince who was left dumbfounded for a moment. Before the prince could respond around Ye Yuyan the mist started to seethed and expand. He made both his hands into claws and dug into the mist.

The mist waved in the wind as Ye Yuyan's claw-like hands swung down in front of him. The mist moved forward becoming ice claws that slammed down onto Han Yi.

Han Yi shot out hundreds of thunder serpents in response, each of the coiling serpents slammed into the claws and dissipated in the same moment.

Only after hundreds had struck, did the claw disappear and Ye Yuyan swung down again with faster and faster claws. Every few of the claws would strike the ground missing Han Yi and leaving only a blue claw mark.

Han Yi roared to the heaven's as the serpents grew a small horn and two front claws. Their ferocity suddenly ignited as each serpent overpowered the claws. Ye Yuyan didn't slack off as the mist pressed against his body.

Along his black robes appeared beautiful snowflake inscriptions, the bland blank became a beautiful winter robe. One might suspect he was attending festivities rather than a fight.

"Your Highness, you'd best back down from this point." Ye Yuyan kindly advised

"Do you think these tricks are enough to cause me any worry?" Han Yi coldly intoned.

"Do you know what it is that makes the moon look blue?" Ye Yuyan asked

"I'll tell you. It's the cinders that come from the earth." Ye Yuyan said with a devious smile that showed off his pearly whites.

"What?!?" Han Yi said reflexively as he turned his attention below him.

He suddenly noticed the various scattered blue claws start to shine. The blue light intensified as the head of a blue-furred demon roared at the prince. All the thunder serpents dissipated instantly from the roar even the lightning on the prince's body completely acquiesced.

"You may have 'dispelled' the uncanniness but you never cleared the source." Ye Yuyan laughed as his eyes flitted past Gulan's body.

Though suppressed Han Yi's countenance did not change and even in the face of the demon, he stood calmly. His eyes looked off past the mountains as if seeing something hidden beyond it.

"You dare to call that creature here?!?" Han Yi roared with cold and calm fury.

"Like I said your Highness, I want to cooperate. After all don't you need this?" Ye Yuyan said with a joking tone as he unfurled a black scroll.
