Commanding Wind and Cloud

In the last while, Qian Wutian risked everything to activate his bloodline power, and his growth in power surpassed Qian Wushan when the latter was at this level. It vaguely felt like Qian Wutian was the best elf king bloodline warrior for achieving the ultimate awakening in this generation.

Qian Zhanxuan even suspected that Qian Family might have two warriors who could achieve ultimate awakening. If that happened, the Demon Empire would be conquered, and Qian Family’s status in the Zence Empire would truly be higher than the two other ultimate bloodline family.

“Now, a bloodline warrior of Qian Family who had the potential of achieving ultimate awakening is dead. How can I let Qian Jin live? Even Fabreidis who was a saint warrior can’t be compared to Qian Wutian!” Qian Zhanxuan thought.

This leader of Qian Family looked back at Pam Honzi and said, “Snake Emperor, what are you going to do? Work with a demon?”

For masters on their level, they had to look at each other while speaking. Otherwise, it would a form of disrespect.

To warriors, there was only one way to address the disrespect, and that was through battle.

Qian Zhanxuan had been through too many duels and battles, and he was bored with normal fights. Therefore, he used his words to pressure Pam Honzi and Bhang Wusheng. A human warrior working with a demon warrior to battle another human warrior? That could be counted as treason.

Pam Honzi smiled and thought, “If we are to fight this three-versus-one battle, we can’t win for sure, but we should be able to kill one of them, either Qian Zhanxuan or Qian Zhanri. In that case, the other will for sure escape, and we can’t block him.”

“However, kill Qian Zhanxuan?” Pam Honzi frowned and thought, “Bhang Wusheng is a demon after all. If we worked together and killed Qian Zhanxuan, the one who will be the happiest won’t be Qian Jin but the Demon King. That demon will probably be so happy that he wouldn’t be able to sleep.”

“Brother Zhanxuan, you don’t need to pressure me with those words,” Pam Honzi laughed and said. “I sure don’t like you. You can say that I hate you. However, unless necessary, I won’t do things that decrease the combat strength of the Zence Empire.”

“Of course.” Pam Honzi pointed at Qian Jin beside him who was on the verge of going crazy, and this hydra bloodline warrior said, “If Brother Zhanxuan must kill my ally, I would have no choice but to move. If I can, I will even coordinate with the Demon King, let alone the Bandit King. Do you believe me? You still want to kill my ally?”

Pam Honzi didn’t continue; only a cold grin appeared on his face.

The word ‘ally’ wouldn’t mean much to ordinary people.

However, this word was more valuable than gold, diamond, and even saint items to big families. If a family didn’t even try to protect its allies, the honor and reputation of this family would be impacted, and the fact that the family was going to go downhill was unavoidable.

Qian Zhanxuan’s eyebrows shivered as he thought, “Ally? This life-saving token of Qian Jin sure if effective. But if I let him go…”

“Want to kill someone who I protect?” Bhang Wusheng sneered and said, “Unless I, the Bandit King, am dead!”

Qian Zhanxuan frowned again. After Bhang Wusheng became the bandit king, the Frontier was relatively much more stable and peaceful. It was strongly correlated to this man’s combat strength.

Regardless if they were humans, demons, or barbarians, to kill Bhang Wusheng, they would have to pay the price of the life of a bloodline warrior who achieved heavenly awakening. However, no matter which party did that, the other two parties would be greatly pleased.

As a result, none of the forces wanted to touch Bhang Wusheng.

Qian Zhanxuan was confident that he could defeat and kill Bhang Wusheng in a one-versus-one battle. However, the current situation…

Qian Zhanxuan sighed and thought, “I calculated many possibilities, including Bhang Wusheng and Pam Honzi getting here on time. However, I missed this woman, Izabella. That little girl who was insignificant and could only be said as talented achieved such results. Heavenly awakening! Although she is only one person, it will have a huge effect on the ending of the battle. Besides, there is Marc Garvin who is a saint warrior as well. He is weak, but a saint warrior can potentially change the outcome of the battle when it gets to the late stage where everyone is injured.”

Qian Zhanxuan suddenly felt like his mouth was dry, and he thought, “Battle? If I don’t risk my life, the chance of successfully killing Qian Jin is less than… five percent.”

“If I risk everything, including my life, I can kill Qian Jin for sure…” Qian Zhanxuan’s brows twisted as he thought, “It is a bad deal to trade my noble life for Qian Jin’s.”

Qian Zhanxuan had never been this hesitant before. If his target were different, he would have given up already facing this level of resistance. However, his target’s name was Qian Jin.

This young man who abandoned Qian Family was going to be famous in the entire Zence Empire once he returned, and many people would say that Qian Family was blind for not discovering such a talent.

As a top-tier master, Qian Zhanxuan could ignore the mockery coming from the Zence Empire and the Demon Empire. However, he couldn’t overlook the warrior souls that Qian Jin condensed.

One body three warrior souls! Qian Zhanxuan’s gaze turned cold, and he thought, “Three warrior souls? How did he do it? Even though the Demon King has two warrior souls, he can only switch between them once he activates his bloodline. He can’t even use both warrior souls at the same time.”

One body three warrior souls! Although Qian Jin exploded the warrior seal for his divine fighting technique, Latent Thunder when he hit Qian Wutian with his finger strike, the power of the three warrior souls couldn’t be ignored.

Becoming a saint! It was a beautiful yet unattainable dream for ordinary warriors. However, Qian Jin was someone who could forge soul weapons!

Qian Zhanxuan could still ignore Qian Jin if this young man couldn’t become a saint. However, if Qian Jin became a saint warrior, even if he could only stay in the level of fake saint due to the issues that many ordinary warriors had such as the impurity of warrior power, his three warrior souls might form three soul realms. In the end, Qian Jin’s combat power would still be lethal.

At least for the young warriors of the Qian Family, Qian Jin was going to be their nightmare.

“Miscalculation!” Qian Zhanxuan stared at Pam Honzi and thought, “I thought Qian Jin was able to cause such a mess in front of the Qian Family because the Snake Emperor used a secret technique of the Hydra Bloodline Family and stimulated his strength. I thought the Snake Emperor only came with them to observe the effect of the secret technique.”

“Unexpected…” A bit of admiration appeared in Qian Zhanxuan’s cold smile. “This Snake Emperor Pam Honzi sure is hard to guess. He went to the Qian Family with these young people and hid in the dark on purpose! He wanted others to think that Qian Jin was strong because of the Pam Family’s secret technique. Also, he wanted the Qian Family to lose face.”

“Brother Zhanxuan, your domination comes from your decisiveness,” Pam Honzi said as he lightly gestured; it looked like he was saying farewell. “If you lose your decisiveness, your belief as a warrior… hahaha…”

“Snake Emperor, you are right. I was too narrow-minded,” Qian Zhanxuan laughed and put away most of his murderous spirit. Then, he continued to say, “Since I can’t kill him this time, I will tell Wushan to beat him to death on the stage of New Generation Warrior and Mage Competition. The boring and useless rumors coming from the ignorant public will disappear after a warrior of the Qian Family becomes the King of the New Generation.”

Pam Honzi only smiled and didn’t reply, but faint appreciation and admiration appeared in his eyes. He thought, “this leader of the Qian Family truly doesn’t care about the public opinion. He came here mostly for the younger generations of the Qian Family.”

As powerful as Qian Zhanxuan was, he didn’t care about Qian Jin. However, it didn’t mean that other prideful elf king bloodline warriors wouldn’t care. If Qian Zhanxuan could kill Qian Jin, other warriors of the Qian Family didn’t need to be side-tracked and lose focus.

“Snake Emperor, I, Qian Zhanxuan, will return the ‘favor’ someday.” Qian Zhanxuan swung his sleeves with force and walked toward the other side of the Frontier as he said, “Bhang Wusheng, I will come to you and visit you someday as well.”

Bhang Wusheng raised his head casually and said while the dominating presence oozed out of his body, “I also want to battle the most powerful elf king bloodline warrior in the world.”

“There will be that chance.”

“Want to leave? Return my brother’s life!” Marc Gavin suddenly shouted, and blood gushed out the corners of his eyes that were torn since his eyes opened too wide due to anger. The battle-ax in his hand followed his body, and they dashed toward Qian Zhanxuan’s head like a bolt of lightning. “Die!”

“You aren’t qualified.” Without turning his head, Qian Zhanxuan raised one of his hands, and his five fingers grasped onto the ax.

In the next moment, the giant ax shattered, and a damaging power dashed into Marc Gavin’s chest through the ax and knocked him down from the high sky.

“First, you are a warrior who protects Zence. Then, you are Fabreidis’ brother. If you still can’t tell which one is more important next time, I don’t mind killing the last ordinary saint warrior.”

Qian Zhanxuan came suddenly and left abruptly. He instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight, and only his words resonated in the sky.

Bam…

Qian Jin’s body lightly fell forward, and his eyes were closely shut and didn’t open. At the same time, the three warrior souls behind him instantly disappeared.

No one knew when Qian Jin became unconscious, but his iron-will supported his body and made him stand straight. Now that Qian Zhanxuan was gone, his iron-will disappeared as well.

“Comrade…”

“Qian Jin…”

“He should be ok,” Bhang Wusheng looked at Qian Jin who was on the ground and said. “Both his body and spirit are severely injured, so he fainted temporarily.”

Pam Honzi nodded in agreement. However, before his head stopped nodding, Qian Jin opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood even though he was still unconscious.

The blood wasn’t pure red; sprinkles of dark-gold dust seemed to be hidden in the blood. It seemed like metal was mixed in his body.

Also, Qian Jin’s skin sometimes turned red while a metallic glare and other colors appeared other times.

“This…” Pam Honzi shook his head and said, “This probably isn’t temporary unconsciousness, right?”

“What the heck are we looking at him for?” Duren Burg quickly picked up Qian Jin with his arms and looked at Bhang Wusheng before saying anxiously, “Let’s go back to your place first. We need to get some potions and save him!”
