Run!

‘I need to escape from here as soon as possible, the quicker the better.

A sense of danger and great horror overwhelmed Murong Bo’s heart.

On that small hill, there was a group of Precelestial powerhouses of the Mei Clan setting up an ambush. There were even a few Ultimate Precelestials among them.

And yet.

With just a thrust of a palm, those people could not even react and were all caught up in the attack.

From the looks of the situation, they had already been buried under the soil, forming a pile of crushed body parts.

It was just a soft palm strike.

The numerous Precelestial powerhouses did not even have time to react before being squashed into a pulp.

Deep within Murong Bo’s heart, he was very well aware of what this was all about!

It was because he understood it that made him feel scared.

That blurry human outline was not mysterious but downright spooky.

He was a true powerhouse!

He was at least a demi-King, or even more powerful.

When facing such an existence, he had no guts of going against him.

He did not even have the courage to weigh his escape prospects.

He feared that the moment he thought about it, it would only give him a wave of disappointment.

If it reached that point, perhaps he would lose the courage to even try to escape.

Currently, he forced himself not to think about it; perhaps that would give him the bravery to flee. Maybe a miracle might occur too!

And yet!

Chu He shook his head, dashing any hope of the man getting a miracle.

He pointed with his finger.

An illusion of an enlarged finger the size of a massive log rushed forth and smashed into the fleeing man!

Boom!

Murong Bo, who was rushing forward like a meteor, ended up having his body explode in mid-air. He did not even let out a shriek and then his body was decimated without a trace.

Blood poured everywhere like rain!

That bloody scene sent a chill down the spines of the other fighters.

They honestly had no idea and did not know that Murong Bo was planning to drag them all to their graves.

In their hearts, Murong was still considered a comrade.

So right now, when they saw their comrade being brutally murdered, they were very terrified.

They were not actually angry!

Even though Murong Bo was a comrade, they were just working together at the last minute and had no feelings developed for each other.

They were not from the same family either!

His death gave them a sense of sorrow like seeing a rabbit die at the hands of a fox.

It felt like a public execution that served as a warning, which was unnerving.

Their guards were up extremely high now.

As for seeking revenge…

No one would even think of cracking that joke unless they wanted to seek death!

The powerful existence was able to flatten a small hill and easily poke Murong Bo—a Precelestial Ninth Erudition powerhouse—to death.

If that were not the case, perhaps they would consider the possibility of seeking revenge.

If there was a possibility, someone amongst them would be thinking of it.

They immediately threw down their sabers, both hands covering their heads as they fell to their knees, pleading.

The atmosphere was very tense.

All the fighters were panting heavily.

The Precelestial powerhouses, who were always giving off cold and distant expressions in front of others, were currently as weak as a little sheep facing a fierce tiger.

They were trembling with fear.

Chu He’s gaze glanced past them.

He looked at them calmly.

However, to the rest of the fighters, the pressure felt as heavy as a mountain.

Droplets of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads and slowly dripped down.

“You guys will be fine. Calm down, no need to be nervous!” Chu He said calmly.

He had just confirmed it earlier. The person who he had killed with a finger had a different type of evil energy within him and was clearly one of the foreign clan group lying in ambush on the top of the little hill. The group was obviously up to no good. The other people were perfectly normal.

So, everything was fine!

He moved his body with his hands behind him. With the blink of an eye, he vanished from the spot. In the next moment, he appeared at the mound that he had flattened. He did not stop his movements and blinked once again, and his body disappeared completely from everyone’s eyes.

Phew!

“He’s gone!”

“That was scary!”

All the fighters could not help but let out a long breath of relief.

The dead aura that was engulfing the top of the mountain gradually dispersed. A sense of freedom developed deep within the soul and even their physique was affected as well.

The group felt completely drained of energy. For some time, they could not move at all.

The earlier encounter did not last more than a few breaths, but to them, it felt like a very long period of time, almost a century-long.

Even though they did not do anything, they had experienced a very high-intensity conflict of life and death, and it took a toll on their emotions.

“So this is the pressure coming from a powerhouse?!”

Some of them muttered without much strength.

…

Mt. Shaoyan, at the grounds of the Zhang family.

At that moment, the Zhang family did not seem to have anything unusual on the outer surface.

However, in the interior, it was highly guarded like a military base camp.

There were armies everywhere, both on the surface and in the shadows.

At that moment, within the core palace of the Zhang family.

Silhouettes in black robes were sitting with their legs folded. A horrifying and evil aura was given off, giving the entire palace an eerie vibe.

At the corners of the walls of the palace, a group of elders of the Zhang family was behaving like servants, bowing their bodies to provide their service.

Tens of years had passed and that place was currently the Mei clan’s gathering spot within the Xia clan.

As for the Zhang family, they were no longer feeling unsatisfied like in the past and were currently obeying them.

“St. Wu Shuang, news has arrived from St. Xiao Yue earlier. Their hideout at Yun Commandery has been spotted by the Xia clan. There’s a Demi-King making a move and it led to a bloody war. They all retreated but most of the matured Bloody Food had brutally fallen into the hands of the Xia clan. She had just contacted you, hoping for you to provide some aid, and joined forces with them to retrieve the Bloody Food. When the time comes, she will split the spoils and share half of it with you!”

A body figure in black robes came in from outside. He bent down to sit, his legs crossed, in between the other two outlines in black robes at the tallest spot of the clan palace. One of them replied.

“Hmph!”

“Share half with me?”

There was a burst of cold laughter.

St. Wu Shuang who was at the stage snorted on that matter. It was obvious that he was not moved by the offer of the so-called half-share of Bloody Food.

“If it was during old times, given her criteria, perhaps I might have considered it. But now, there’s something more important for me to attend. Tell her I’m not free and ask her to look for someone else from the Mei clan!”

“Yes, sir.”

The silhouette in black robes at the entrance heard it and quickly bowed, answered, and retreated.

“Protectors, how is the lady that we captured?”

St. Wu Shuang looked at the outline in black robes beside him and said with an icy cold voice that was accompanied with anticipation.

“Those that need to be prepared are almost done. After a short while, we can proceed with the final move.”

A hoarse voice was heard. The Black Robe Protector raised his head to look at the Holy Son, and said with an envious tone, “When the time comes, I fear your foundation will be the best amongst this group of Holy Sons and Daughters. If you’re lucky enough, perhaps you might even immediately reach the top rank.”

“That lady really possessed great talent. She’s still so young and has already attained the level of Ultimate Precelestial. She’s just one step shy of reaching the Demi-King realm.”

“More importantly is what she ate when growing up. Not only is her body perfect, but even her soul is full of pure fragrance. This can really fill up the most powerful soul body. Even I can barely refrain myself from taking a bite when I met her.”

“It’s truly tempting!”

The mouth of the Black Robe Protector was giving off an irritating sound and his tone was laced with greed.

“Protector!”

St. Wu Shuang’s tone changed.

It seemed that he was worried that the Black Robe Protector would really eat her up.

After all, the ranking of the protector was comparable to his within the clan. The protector’s abilities were much more powerful than his.

If he really wanted to make a move and gobble her up, St. Wu Shuang could not do anything either.

“Don’t worry, my foundation has been solidified but yours haven’t been yet. That lady is more useful to you than she is to me. It’s been a while since our bloodline has a number one Holy Son! This time, you got the potential for it.”

The Black Robe Protector explained and it made St. Wu Shuang relieved.

“Rest assured, protector, this time, the title of the number one Holy Son shall be mine!”

He spoke with full confidence.

“Is that so?!”

Just when he was done talking, a calm voice broke out. The source of the voice could not be pinpointed as it echoed through the entire clan palace.
