From the clouds, a figure showed itself.
He had a green face and sharp teeth, with a pair of wings on his back.
‘The Heavenly Fiend Tribe!
This person widened his eyes as he looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao greedily.
Beautiful! Too beautiful!
“Which race are you mixed with? Interesting, you can actually break free from the bloodline inheritance restrictions of the Heavenly Fiend Clan!” Glenn spoke with a smile.
The moment he saw Cheng Xiaoxiao, he felt that something was different.
Cheng Xiaoxiao’s wings were no different from those of the Heavenly Fiend Tribe, but her skin was extremely fair and she did not have any fangs.
One had to know that the Heavenly Fiend Tribe’s bloodline was extremely expressive. At the very least, Glenn had never seen a fellow who could break free from the inheritance of the Heavenly Fiend’s bloodline!
This woman in front of him undoubtedly had the bloodline of the Heavenly Fiend Clan, yet at the same time, it was completely different.
Glenn had just confirmed that these two people’s cultivation bases were not very high at all. They were only at the 9th Grade of Earth Rank!
Although it was terrifying to see a little girl having a cultivation of 9th Grade Earth Rank, it wasn’t a threat to a 3rd Grade Heaven Rank cultivator like him.
However, there was something that he was very concerned about. That little girl was actually able to discover him hiding in the clouds!
Thus, Glenn did not make a move immediately.
He decided to probe further!
Cheng Xiaoxiao had never been to the Demon Realm before, but the moment she saw Glenn, she blurted out the thought in her mind, “Traitor!”
Glenn looked confused. Compared to the transparency of the inheritance in the Formless Realm, only some higher-ups knew about the origin of the Heavenly Fiend Tribe.
“Who did I betray?” Glenn asked, frowning.
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Glenn fearfully, but still stood in front of Su Su. “What do you want to do!”
Glenn smiled. “What do I want to do? I want you to come home with me!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao was a little afraid, but she still whispered behind her, “Su Su, run. I’ll try to stop him!”
Su Su shook her head and smiled. “Aunt Xiaoxiao, you can’t beat him. He’s at the Heaven Rank!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao was shocked and fell into a dilemma!
What should she do now?
However, just as she was hesitating, Su Su took a step forward and smiled. “Uncle, we’re going to find Father. We can’t let Aunt Xiaoxiao go with you!”
Glenn laughed. “Little girl, why are you still looking for your father? Am I not ready-made? How about I be your father instead?”
‘The moment he said that, Su Su’s face darkened. “You shameless ugly ghost, if you don’t leave now, do you believe that I will get my sister to come out and beat you to death?”
“Hmph! Little girl, you sure have a big tone! Why don’t you let me see who’s your sister?”
Glenn shouted coldly as his aura spread out and his domain released.
Black Demonic Qi covered the sky, instantly enveloping Su Su and Cheng Xiaoxiao, causing their faces to change.
Cheng Xiaoxiao immediately screamed, “Su Su, run! I’ll try to stop him!”
The girl reached out to grab Su Su and fling her away, but at this moment.
Bang! Her hand was pushed away.
A layer of aura was currently being emitted from Su Su.
Su Su closed her eyes as Heaven Earth Origin Qi revolved around her body. She muttered to herself, “First Seal, release!”
Boom!
Compared to the last time when the seal was removed, this time around, Su Su’s aura was even more imposing when she released her seal.
Heaven Earth Origin Qi instantly poured in towards her.
Su Su, who was originally a 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivator, had actually broken through to the Heaven Rank in one fell swoop!
Glenn’s eyes widened. What had he just seen? This girl had broken through to the Heaven Rank just like that?
Although she was only at 1st Grade Heaven Rank now, was the Heaven Rank so simple to break through?
Furthermore, how old was she?
At his age, he was probably still playing with urine and mud, right?
‘When Su Su opened her eyes again, they were filled with coldness.
“Hmm… the opponent is a little strong. A cultivation of ist Grade Heaven Rank doesn’t seem to be enough,” Big Su muttered.
“Stop struggling, you brat!” Glenn shouted. “There’s not much difference between a ist Grade Heaven Rank and a 9th Grade Earth Rank in my eyes!”
Su Su sneered slightly. Her tender face looked a little strange when combined with this cold smile.
She lightly spoke, “Then what about this?”
Inan instant, Su Su’s aura suddenly increased. A Heaven Earth Origin Qi Barrier manifested around her!
Glenn lifted up his shaky hand and pointed at Su Su. “Who the hell are you?” he asked in horror.
Su Su’s strength was not enough to scare him, but her actions.
They were too terrifying!
Are you sure they were both practicing the same type of cultivation system?
How could she conduct successive breakthroughs just like that?
‘My body is still too weak, so I can’t bring my cultivation up anymore. This is already the limit. Even so, my physical body can’t withstand such a powerful cultivation. I have to end this quickly!’ Big Su judged in her heart.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Su Su moved!
‘The golden wings on her back flapped, and in an instant, she turned into a red beam of light!
Su Su flew rapidly through the black mist domain.
“Big Sis, you can do it!”
Little Su was shouting excitedly in their Spiritual Sea.
“Shut up, don’t disturb me! Get ready! I’m going to remove the second seal!”
“alright!”
“Second seal, spiritual restriction removed!”
Su Su, who was flying rapidly in the air, crashed straight into Glenn!
“Heavenly Demon’s Howl!” The move that Halles had used before was now also being used by Glenn.
Roar!
With a furious roar, a vibrating sound wave spread out in all directions.
But the main target of his attacks was still Su Su!
However
The violent Qi force had not flown far when it was slashed apart by an invisible blade!
“Spirit Blade!”
At the same time, Su Su had already closed in.
“Phoenix Screech’s Seal!”
The sharp phoenix cry sounded once more.
But at the same time the cry was heard, Su Su’s eyes started to bleed!
At the same time, invisible blades formed from spiritual strength slashed at Glenn from all directions!
This powerful and violent spiritual power was extremely difficult to control.
Glenn never expected Su Su to be able to use such a terrifying attack while executing her martial technique. He was only focused on her energy attack the whole time.
“Heavenly Fiend’s Battle Hammer!”
Glenn threw out a punch with his backhand, directly attacking Su Su’s Phoenix Screech’s Seal.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the Heaven Earth Origin Qi scattered in all directions.
“Pfft!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn’t withstand the slightest bit of the scattered Qi.
She was directly sent flying and plummeted from the sky while spitting blood.
In that same instant, Glenn was attacked by countless blades formed out of the spiritual consciousness.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
He was sliced by thousands of knives!
Even his Heaven Earth Origin Qi barrier was also forcefully slashed open!
Su Su did not stop moving in the meantime. Her eyes were filled with sharpness as she executed another move.
“Phoenix Dances in the Sky!”
Another ultimate technique was unleashed, as if the Heaven Earth Origin Qi was free.
(TL Note: Well, it technically is…)
At the same time, in the sky, an invisible spiritual spear was condensing.
As Su Su’s main body attacked, the invisible spear seemed to cut through space arriving instantly at its target!
Glenn roared as he punched out with both fists, forcefully blocking Su Su’s material attack!
But in the next second, a bloody hole was pierced through his heart!
Glenn’s eyes were filled with disbelief!
“How is this possible… How can she still use such a terrifying attack in such a battle?”
Glenn’s consciousness started to turn fuzzy.
He knew that he would definitely die from such serious injuries.
The last image that filled his mind was Su Su’s face, which was covered in blood.
He felt as if he was not fighting against someone, but rather something out of his realm of knowledge.
Although Su Su was powerful in front of him, he was still able to put up a fight.
However, the terrifying thing was that even though Su Su was frantically activating her ultimate technique, she could still unleash another lethal invisible attack at the same time!
Her powerful mental strength completely exceeded his understanding.
How would he know that he was actually battling against two separate sisters!
Little Su was in charge of controlling the terrifying and powerful spiritual energy, while Big Su was in charge of controlling the body to fight with Glenn and restrain him.
Moreover, it had to be said that the timing of the two of them cooperating was extremely good. Every time they attacked, they did not give Glenn much time to react. In just a few exchanges, they made use of the fact that the opponent did not know their methods to kill him!
“Sister, I struck him!”
Little Su exclaimed excitedly.
“Tl return your body to you. I need to rest! Don’t undo the seal if there’s nothing else. Our body can’t take it yet!”
Big Su reminded her before falling asleep.
The violent and powerful spiritual energy dissipated… and Su Su’s cultivation level fell back to Earth Rank.
Little Su immediately felt a headache coming on, as well as her body being wracked in pain.
Operating skills that exceeded the limits of one’s body would naturally have a corresponding price.
She quickly descended to look for Cheng Xiaoxiao.
“Aunt Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have fallen to her death, right?” Little Su was extremely worried.
If one fell from this height… there was a high chance that a 9th Grade Earth Rank martial artist would die.
Little Su quickly went down to search for any traces of Cheng Xiaoxiao.
Fortunately, Cheng Xiaoxiao was lucky… and fell straight on top of a towering tree.
Although many of the bones in his body had been broken, the impact of the collision was slowed down by the lush canopy of the tree, allowing her to survive.
At this moment, in Great Zhou.
Unknowingly, everyone had serious eye bags.
It was not just one person, but the entire country.
Furthermore, there had been news of people from other countries who had broken through to the Heaven Rank, but none came from Zhou.
After the Heaven Ranks, Zhang Qian also followed suit and returned.
As he stepped onto the Zhou Country’s land that he did not return for a long time, Zhang Qian sighed in happiness.
Ata small tavern by the roadside, Zhang Qian lowered his body to enter.
However, upon entering, Zhang Qian looked at the crowd and frowned.
He could already tell that there was something wrong with these people!
“Waiter, bring me a pot of wine!”
Zhang Qian said loudly.
The waiter immediately brought over a pot of good wine.
“Dear customer, here’s your wine.” The waiter smiled with his dark eye circles.
Zhang Qian stared at him for a long time, but he could not see any problems.
Not only was his body strong, his blood Qi was also normal.
“Waiter, did you not rest well? Why are there so many dark eye circles?” Zhang Qian asked directly.
‘The waiter was stunned. He looked around and said, “Are my dark eye circles big? Isn’t everyone like this? However, your complexion is quite good, you don’t have any dark eye circles at all.”
“Everyone is like this…” Zhang Qian muttered. “This is abnormal.”
He grabbed the waiter’s wrist and said with a smile, “Let me take a look. This is a medical technique passed down from my ancestors!”
The waiter was anxious. “No! I still have to work. If the shopkeeper sees this, he will scold me.”
Zhang Qian casually threw out a silver ingot and said, “I’ll give half to you and half to the shopkeeper!”
Upon seeing the silver, the waiter immediately stopped talking.
Zhang Qian’s True Qi entered the waiter’s body.
‘There was no abnormality!
His body seemed perfectly fine!
Zhang Qian frowned.
Was it his imagination?
At this moment, a few more martial artists entered the door.
These people did not have high cultivation levels, and were furthermore talking animatedly about something.
However, Zhang Qian saw that they also had dark eye circles.
Furthermore, these people had vigorous blood vitality. As martial artists, they would definitely not have dark eye circles because they did not rest well.
‘There was a problem! A big problem!
Zhang Qian calmed himself down again and started to examine the waiter’s body carefully.
He used his True Qi to go through it bit by bit!
Just as his True Qi entered the waiter’s heart, Zhang Qian’’s eyes widened.
A black bug was inside the waiter’s heart!!
It tightly adhered to the waiter’s heart, and countless black roots grew out of it, stabbing into the waiter’s heart. Their flesh and blood connected, moving along with the rhythm of the waiter’s heart.
“Dear customer, are you done? Look, the shopkeeper is looking at me,” The waiter interrupted his thought process.
Zhang Qian forced a smile and said, “Alright, you should go back to work first.”
As he watched the waiter leave, Zhang Qian felt a chill in his heart.
Looking around, everyone was like this.
D*mn it! Who did it?
To think that they would do such a vile thing while a Heaven Rank expert wasn’t in the Zhou Country!
And what was this black bug?
Why did it attach itself to these people?
Did no one notice anything amiss?
In reality, there were naturally people who discovered the abnormality. However, with their methods, they were simply unable to discover the bug.
Zhang Qian pondered for a moment and stopped drinking. He stood up and left.
‘The waiter came to the table and looked at the wine that had barely been drunk. He smiled smugly and said, “Where did this fool come from? Not only did he give me money, he didn’t even drink the wine. Today, I’m really lucky.”
Zhang Qian left and headed straight for the mass graves.
‘When he arrived, he found a relatively fresh corpse.
With a casual flick of his finger, Zhang Qian sliced open the corpse’s chest, but he did not find any presence of those black bugs.
It had somehow disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Qian frowned and pondered before returning to the city.
‘As he walked on in confusion, he suddenly heard a cry.
It was from a household that had just had a newborn!
He barged in and grabbed the baby, scaring the family members.
A moment later, Zhang Qian put down the child and stood up to leave!
However, his expression turned even darker!
The child who had just cried actually had the same black bug within!
Zhang Qian knew that something big had happened this time.
Meanwhile, within the Royal Palace… the little monk Zhizhen sat on Emperor Zhou’s dragon couch.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Ared dot had appeared on the surveillance Star Disk.
“Hehe, are they here?”
The little monk knew that this matter could not be hidden from others. Or rather, at this moment, there was no need for him to hide it from others.
So what if they knew?
As the little monk expected, the red dot headed straight for the palace.
And that dot was Zhang Qian!
He carried his sword and flew straight into the palace.
“Zhao Pingshan! Come out!” roared Zhang Qian.
Zhao Pingshan was also the Second Prince’s name.
In the end, this matter was still linked to the Second Prince.
Upon hearing this furious roar, the second prince walked out of the royal study.
Raising his head to look at Zhang Qian who was floating in the sky, he bowed and said, “May I know why Senior has summoned this junior?”
Zhang Qian fell silent when he saw the Second Prince.
This was because the Second Prince also had obvious dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he also had that black bug in his body!
Initially, Zhang Qian had thought that the Second Prince was behind this, but from the looks of it, that was not the case!
