Chapter 46: You Truly Deserve to Die

Qin Wanyi glared at him, stunned for several seconds before finally reacting. “You actually followed me!”

She had never imagined that a man who appeared so refined on the surface would stoop to something so despicable. It was enough to make anyone’s jaw drop.

Zhao Kaixing not only denied it, but readily admitted it. “Yes. I followed you.”

...

The Blood River Sect’s evil art—provisionally called the Blood River Qi Refinement Art—required the innate blood essence of infants for cultivation. Each use claimed two lives.

Whenever the villagers came to ask, Jingzhe patiently explained it to them. After hearing the explanation so many times, even her companions grew tired of it.

Gu Suifeng’s sinister, icy gaze swept across her face, studying her expression. Calmly, he lifted the glass of water a servant had brought and took a sip, then raised his blade-like chin with a smile that was not quite a smile.

A surging wave of fire-elemental energy erupted from Zhang Liang’s right hand and shot straight toward the city wall by the main gate.

Several times, when she had been with him, she had felt the urge to secretly take a photograph. But she had never possessed the courage, and she seemed to have no particular talent for taking portraits either.

The Indestructible Vajra Art unified the inner and outer body. Though the Vajra Sect Master had not reached the pinnacle of mastery, he had nevertheless attained an extraordinarily high level.

The Capital Garrison officer watching the battle from the side was likewise astonished by the force of his presence. A talent such as this would have been the perfect choice in the army for charging enemy lines and slaying their commanders.

Because the currencies of Great Lan and Shanjin did not circulate easily in Clearstream, large transactions were settled with gold, silver, and gemstones.

The uproar over Qin Zhan had grown enormous. Tens of thousands of people flooded into the streets, demanding that Qin Zhan come forward and give them an explanation.

Wang Changli’s heart pounded violently. It was as though the young man he had been decades ago had returned, setting his entire bloodstream ablaze.

“My solution is to destroy Tianjue before he steps into the Divine Realm!” A murderous intent flashed through the eyes of the Darkblood Ancestor.

The people on the factory side understood the situation in the south very well. They knew there were many powerful cultivators there, so all Wang Chen had to do was stir up a little trouble, and he could incite both sides into war.

But by then, Zhong Wuyi had no time to retreat. The fourth bolt of arcane thunder had already struck him from behind.

The bizarre, eerie bones and viscous sludge beneath the water were exposed. Then a torrential rain washed all that filth away.

“Put on the soft armor!” Lin Qian reminded Li Yuan as he walked forward without looking back.

On the Qiangong family’s side, Qiangong Hua spoke, and Qiangong Tian nodded as well. Before coming, they had investigated the Medicine King Hall. They had even purchased pills there and compared them with those produced by the Alchemists’ Alliance.

“This is a senior retainer of the Nangong family. His Highness the First Prince need only address him as Elder Zheng.” In response to Qin Wudi’s question, Nangong Ling replied coolly, clearly unwilling to elaborate on the old man’s identity or origins.

He spoke casually, and the shopkeeper did not hear him. The shopkeeper merely arranged for Wang Chen to sit down and asked whether he wanted anything else to eat.

Then Li Tianze waved his hand and attacked Landi Audun without pause, beating him all the way from one end to the other.

He was a prince of the Taiwu Kingdom. Even if he were defeated, the Celestial Yin Cult would not treat him too harshly. Shi Feng, however, was different. If he fell into the Celestial Yin Cult’s hands, he would undoubtedly suffer endless torment.

His dark-gold, mismatched pupils contracted instantly. Victor nodded slightly, said nothing, and turned to walk toward Sylvia and the others.

Daishan was no ordinary man, however. The principle of preparing for danger in times of peace had long since been carved into the bones of the people of this age. Several years earlier, Daishan had secretly dug a passage beneath his residence leading directly outside the city. It was the escape route he had prepared for himself.

During the Age of the Chosen, the elven royal family formed marriage alliances with knightly clans, hoping to use the Golden Knights’ special connection with the Elemental Sea to give birth to Sun Elves. If so, did the elven royal family’s experts possess a means of restraining Sun Elves?
