Chapter 1338: Chase And Kill All
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“The Ancient Dragon Mountain declared war on the Immortal Vampires? How is that possible? We didn’t receive any information.”
In the Lianzhu Mansion of the Central Emperor City, many Supreme Confucians, Saint Confucians and officials of the imperial court were grouped together. They all stared at each other in disbelief.
The various tribes of the Savage Barren Territory were still deep in battle, creating rivers of blood. How could the Ancient Dragon Mountain suddenly declare war on the Immortal Vampires?
However, the information they’d received indeed said that the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon had said it himself. It couldn’t be false.
Even the brilliant Saint Lady furrowed her brows, thinking that this was a bit absurd.
A moment later, another message came from the north. “Qi Zhenhuan, Heaven Pass Blood General of the Qitian Tribe, has died under Zhang Ruochen’s Abyss Ancient Sword. The Time and Space Descendant has risen up strongly and will fight the Immortal Vampires to the end.”
The Central Emperor City was in uproar. Both the young cultivators and the ancient Saints who’d cultivated for centuries were unable to keep calm.
A while ago, people still doubted news that Zhang Ruochen had killed Qiu Lanshan, ninth headmaster of the Northern Region Saint Academy in Xianji Mountain.
Now that yet another powerful accomplishment of Zhang Ruochen had spread to the central region, people no longer thought it was a rumor.
A Confucian Saint didn’t understand, so he asked the Saint Lady, “Is Zhang Ruochen good or evil? How come both the good and bad sides are trying to kill him?”
The Saint Lady bit her lip and then smiled. “There are no so-called good or bad people in the world. Perhaps, he’s only doing what he thinks is right. According to the information I have, if he can exchange the Immortal Vampires he’s killed into military accomplishments, he can already be given the title of Heavenly King.”
“He’s that powerful?”
“Of the young Saints that can instill hatred in the Immortal Vampires, there’s Wan Zhaoyi. There’s also Qing Xiao and Pei Yutian. Clearly, Zhang Ruochen is one too. These four probably enrage the Blood Emperor of the Immortal Vampires horribly.”
...
Even the important figures of the Confucian Way were discussing in Lianzhu Mansion. People were discussing these pieces of news everywhere in the Central Emperor City.
“What’s going on? Weren’t Zhang Ruochen’s meridians disabled? How come he’s even stronger now? First, he killed a Heaven Pass Saint, then he killed Qi Zhenhuan. Is he trying to become a god?”
“What’s with King Zhongying? Did he not disable Zhang Ruochen’s meridians at all?”
“How many years has Zhang Ruochen even cultivated for? With his speed, he must be the fastest in history! Even the Empress wasn’t as powerful as him when she was young.”
“The Empress used large amounts of saintly pills and even divine pills, drying up the resources of Kunlun’s Field, to train the nine Heirs. But they seem to all be weaker than Zhang Ruochen. The title of Heir is getting more and more awkward.”
...
Some people in the Central Emperor City already dared to discuss the Empress. It was evident that after she’d gone missing, her influence and power were lessening. Many human cultivators believed that she’d already died.
This was a terrifying phenomenon. Once people stopped fearing the Empress, it would cause a chain reaction. The imperial court’s rule wouldn’t be as impenetrable as before. The various sects and clans would have their own ideas as well.
Walking on the street, Chu Siyuan saw this phenomenon. He combed his whiskers while feeling worried inside. Looks like it’s time to publicize the Vampire Secrets. We must suppress the Immortal Vampires as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be chaos.
He picked up his pace and hurried to Lianzhu Mansion.
...
Bank of Snow River, Fragrance City.
Xue Wuye was practicing his sword on a stone field. As the sword moved, white snowflakes floated down from the sky, sprinkling onto the entire Fragrance City. Green pavilions, red buildings, pavilions, and Star Observatory Podium were all covered in a thick layer of white crystal.
A beautiful and extraordinary woman arrived on a sword. She landed at the edge of the martial field and whispered something to Xue Wuye using soundwaves.
Xue Wuye’s sword stopped instantly.
The snowflakes in the sky stopped as well. They hovered in the air as if space had frozen. It was very strange.
“He’s already able to kill a Heaven Pass Blood General,” Xue Wuye said. “This kind of improvement speed is unbelievable. Did he use some divine medicine?”
“Young City Lord,” the pretty girl said. “You practiced in the time space treasure for an entire year. Your abilities should be at Zhang Ruochen’s level now, right?”
Xue Wuye just smiled thinly. Instead of answering, he said, “Zhang Ruochen is too high-key. He stole all the spotlight. Seems like I’ll have to fight a battle too.”
“Young City Lord, you already have a target?” The pretty girl’s eyes brightened.
“There are many targets, but I can’t beat the strong ones. I can only beat the weakest one.” Xue Wuye sighed. Then he asked, “Who is the weakest Sword Saint of the Immortal Vampires?”
“Sword Saint Wuji of the Fengtian Tribe.”
“Then send him an invitation to war. We’ll meet outside Zhilin Pass five days from now. Be there or be square.”
With that, Xue Wuye started practicing his sword again. The snow of Fragrance City came down even harder.
...
In Fengdu Ghost City of the east, Han Qiu wore a long black robe and stood on the towering city walls. Her long hair flew in the air. Gazing toward the north, she said, “So what if you announce that she’s your wife? Huang Yanchen will die by my hand sooner or later. She won’t have a good end.”
In the headquarters of the Moon-worship Demonic Sect, Mu Lingxi was smiling, but tears flowed out of her eyes. She had complicated feelings, unsure whether she felt joy or pain.
At the best restaurant in Tiantai County, Zhu Hongtao and Wan Ke both laughed loudly. They drank and ate happily, both celebrating Zhang Ruochen’s great improvement and that the lovers were finally married.
There were many pieces of news from the north, but everyone focused on different things. Some were happy, some were worried, some were terrified, and some were anxious.
...
The battle outside Fengyue City still hadn’t ended.
Zhang Ruochen, the Demon Ape, and Guoguo were chasing after the retreating Blood Saints. They kept attacking, not wanting to let any Blood Saints escape.
One Xuanhuang Realm Blood Saint saw that the man and two beasts were getting closer. She knew that she couldn’t escape, so she stopped and threatened, “If you keep chasing, don’t you think I’ll activate my saintly source so we die together?”
“I don’t think so.”
Guoguo reached out a dragon claw and slapped her down. The Xuanhuang Realm Blood Saint obviously couldn’t take it. Heavily injured, she fell to the ground. Despair appeared in her eyes. “Then we’ll die together!” she roared fiercely. “Die!”
The Holy Qi within her spun quickly and her body brightened. Chaotic destructive Qi was released.
Whoosh!
Zhang Ruochen crossed over and appeared at an angle above her. He moved his finger and tore open a spatial crack, swallowing her.
Boom.
When the saintly source exploded, the spatial crack only had three feet left open. Only a bit of the destructive power was released. It wasn’t able to hurt Zhang Ruochen.
They continued on their pursuit. The Blood Saints were killed one after another. Finally, only Blood Saint Sijian was still alive. The human cultivators who were watching were all dumbfounded. Zhang Ruochen’s aggression was too strong. Like a demonic king, he didn’t give the Immortal Vampires any chances.
If I knew Zhang Ruochen would grow to this level, I would’ve killed him in Xianji Mountain, no matter what.
Blood Saint Sijian felt much regret. He stopped, not continuing to escape. He stared forward and fear filled his eyes.
A fiery red cloud blocked his path.
Martial Saint Canglan flew out of the cloud. The pair of phoenix wings on her back flapped lightly. Her entire body radiated with powerful Saintly Way aura.
“In Xianji Mountain, you stabbed me. Now, I will repay you in full with interest!”
Martial Saint Canglan pointed in the air. Then the phoenix feathers flew out of her back, forming a fiery sword.
With a whistle, the fiery sword flew out, piercing all of Blood Saint Sijian’s defenses and going through his chest.
“You... You actually entered the Heaven Pass Realm...” Blood Saint Sijian’s face was extremely pale. Not daring to fight with Martial Saint Canglan, he activated an escape spell and fled toward another direction.
This was a battle with an obvious end. By the time Zhang Ruochen hurried over, Blood Saint Sijian had already died. His four arms were all broken and there were at least ten sword holes all over him.
Zhang Ruochen and Martial Saint Canglan’s eyes met. Without a word, he turned around and returned to Fengyue City.
Along the way, Zhang Ruochen collected the Blood Saint corpses. He piled them together with the blood slave corpses. Then he summoned the Holy Carnivorous Flower so it could absorb the nutrients.
Because they’d had the Spring Pill, Huang Yanchen and Qing Mo had recovered quickly. They were already stable.
Guoguo turned back into a rabbit. He hurried over to Huang Yanchen to ask for praise. “Sect Mistress, we’ve already killed all the Immortal Vampires who attacked you. Do you have any other orders?”
Huang Yanchen didn’t have any joy. She looked very solemn. Looking at Zhang Ruochen, she said, “Before you came, they captured Shi Ren!”
“How can this be?”
The murderous intent in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes had lessened, but hearing this, it grew heavier.
Shi Ren was the young leader of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians. He’d experienced life and death in the nether world with Zhang Ruochen and had fought against the Immortal Vampire invasion in Pluto Sword Tomb. They were like sworn friends.
It was because of this relationship that Zhang Ruochen gave the ten million drops of divine blood to the Prison Guardians and asked them to produce the Blood Repression Runes.
“Shi Ren knew that your meridians were disabled and you were very weak,” Huang Yanchen said. “You needed help, so he brought a large group of strong cultivators from the Prison Guardians to the north with me. But for some reason, the information was leaked. We were besieged as soon as we entered the north.
“The Blood Repression Runes can counter the Immortal Vampires, but they aren’t all-powerful. Once the Immortal Vampires use remote attacks, we can’t hit the runes onto them even if we have them.
“There were four waves of attacks. The strong cultivators of the Prison Guardians were all killed. Other than Shi Ren, who was captured, no one survived. The Immortal Vampires’ target should be me. They died because of me.”
Zhang Ruochen clenched his fists and shook his head. “Not you. It’s me. I’m their target. Alright, I guess the battle against the Immortal Vampires isn’t over yet. This is only the beginning.”
Zhang Ruochen was clear that the Immortal Vampires would do anything to find out the source of the Blood Repression Runes. After Shi Ren was captured, he’d probably suffer the cruelest torture.
“Whoever dares to touch my wife and brothers, I’ll make you pay the greatest price no matter who you are.”
Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath. His nails dug into his palm and blood flowed out of the cracks between his fingers.
