Chapter 771-780

Chapter 771: Seeking the Dragon’s Pulse

Without saying a single word, Chen Xiaobei strode toward Zhou Jianjun. At that moment, everyone fell into deep silence and paid attention to Chen Xiaobei. Soon, everyone would know whether Chen Xiaobei was the real deal or just boasting his ability. Placing two fingers on Zhou Jianjun’s skin, he started to trace the points on his body, applying pressure on specific ones. He then repeated this process several times.

Everyone was baffled when they saw the way Chen Xiaobei treated Zhou Jianjun. As usual, the amateurs did not know what Chen Xiaobei was trying to do. On the other hand, experts like Tai Yitan knew Chen Xiaobei was actually using a secret technique to save Zhou Jianjun.

“This… This is the lost technique from the ancient witch! Seeking the Dragon’s Pulse! Good heavens! How do you know of this technique?!”

Tai Yitan was usually calm. However, he could not help but shriek when he saw Chen Xiaobei applying the Seeking the Dragon’s Pulse on Zhou Jianjun.

“How is this even possible? This technique is recorded inside the ancient book of Azure Witch Faction! How is it possible for an outsider to master this skill?” Teng Niu said, clearly baffled.

“I don’t think it’s possible as well! But, it’s a fact that he just used this technique on Zhou Jianjun! I never thought that the lost technique would appear right in front of me! Now I know that there is always someone more powerful and knowledgeable than us!” said an awestruck Tai Yitan.

“If our leader knows about this, he will definitely travel here personally to witness the power of this technique! I’m afraid the entire Miaojiang would be shocked when this news spreads to them!” said Teng Niu while nodding.

Meanwhile, the crowd still could not understand what Chen Xiaobei was trying to do to Zhou Jianjun after Tai Yitan and Teng Niu expressed themselves. All they knew was Chen Xiaobei was doing something really incredible.

“I found it!”

Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei pressed on one of the points on Zhou Jianjun’s left shoulder.

“So fast! According to the ancient record, this particular technique allows one to locate the hexworm inside one’s body by tracing the points! Normally, one would need around two hours to look for the hexworm! And Faction Leader Chen used only a couple of minutes to locate it! This is truly unbelievable!” Tai Yitan exclaimed.

The crowd was still feeling puzzled. Teng Niu was so surprised that his eyes were wide open and his jaw dropped.

“Faction Leader Chen! I still have one thing that I can’t understand! How are you going to extract the hexworm from his body after you locate it?” asked Tai Yitan.

“Just make an opening on his shoulder!”

“No! Don’t do that! Spiritual Hexworm is different from the ordinary hexworm! When you cut open his flesh, it will quickly move to another point! In other words, it is pointless to use that kind of method to extract the Spiritual Hexworm!”

“Hehe! Just trust me!”

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei channeled True Qi to his hand and formed an invisible True Kang dagger!

*Swoosh!*

With a single light slash, Zhou Jianjun’s flesh was cut open. The crowd felt even more shocked when they saw that Chen Xiaobei use some invisible force to create an opening on Zhou Jianjun’s left shoulder. Most of them had little knowledge about elites in Jianghu. However, they knew that the thing that Chen Xiaobei just did went beyond logic.

“Come out!” ordered Chen Xiaobei.

Seconds later, a black worm crawled out from the wound. With a bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion prepared, he then poured some on the wound and fed the rest to Zhou Jianjun.

“Go in!”

Chen Xiaobei ordered once again.

To their surprise, the black worm crawled into the empty bottle obediently.

“How… How is that even possible?”

Tai Yitan could no longer stay calm. The perfect image that Tai Yitan tried to maintain shattered into pieces. However, nothing was out of the ordinary. Earlier, he was the one that claimed that no one could ever extract the Spiritual Hexworm. Then Chen Xiaobei just showed them that he could use the secret ancient technique to heal Zhou Jianjun. Also, the most shocking part was Chen Xiaobei could actually order the Spiritual Hexworm around like a pet!

“What now? Are you impressed by me?” Chen Xiaoebei swung the bottle in front of Tai Yitan and asked.

“I’m impressed… I’m really impressed by what you can do!”

In his mind, Chen Xiaobei had already become someone that was highly respectable to him. From this moment onward, he would not dare to act arrogantly in front of Chen Xiaobei anymore. In other words, he had decided to lower down his high and mighty status as a young witch master and treat Chen Xiaobei with politeness.

“What about you?” asked Chen Xiaobei while looking at Teng Niu smugly.

“I’m impressed… I’m truly impressed by you…” said Teng Niu while nodding repeatedly.

“I thought you say that I’m just boasting? And I’m going to be slapped by my own words?”

“I-I’m blind… I should have known better… I do regret now…”

Flushing, Teng Niu was so embarrassed that he just wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.

“Your attitude is still as pleasant! I like it! I’m not going to do anything to you! You can now take a step back!”

“Y-y-yes…”

Lost for words, Teng Niu went and hid behind Tai Yitan’s back with his head lowered.

“Ugh… What just happened? Why am I on the ground?”

Finally, Zhou Jianjun woke up from the coma. The wound on his shoulder had already recovered. It was as if he just took a nap and woke up in perfect condition. Immediately, the bodyguards told him everything that he just been through. Just as expected, Zhou Jianjun was really grateful that Chen Xiaobei had healed him. Finally, the whole thing was put to an end.

Song Qincheng went and reported this incident to the police. Zhou Jianjun also asked two of his bodyguards to escort the person that had the recording to the police station. After that, the rest of the people were dismissed and parted their ways. Although there were still a lot of unanswered questions in their mind, they did not dare to pursue the answer. Knowing that Chen Xiaobei was someone out of this world, puny humans like them would never get to where he was now.

Only Tang Mengwan took the initiative to follow behind Chen Xiaobei. The thing that Chen Xiaobei did just now touched her heart greatly. Now, she could not wait to present herself to him. Halfway, she realized that Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were following behind Chen Xiaobei as well. Teng Niu then glared at her with an angrily – forcing her to stop following Chen Xiaobei due to fear.

Chapter 772: We Are Here to Destroy the Place

“Come out. What’s going on? Just say it here!”

Chen Xioabei stopped in his tracks when he arrived at the parking lot.

“Faction Leader Chen! Pardon us for being so rude. Actually, I have something to ask you,” said Tai Yitan politely.

On the other hand, Teng Niu did not dare to say a single word. He was just staying behind Tai Yitan like a good servant.

“I know what questions that you are about to ask me! I’m not going to answer you!”

“This…”

Tai Yitan was startled as he had never experienced rejection before. Not only did he not get angry, but he also decided to be even more humble.

“Faction Leader Chen! Consider that I’m begging you! Please! I will not be able to sleep and eat if I don’t get the answers that I want today!”

“Are you really that dumb? Or are you just acting dumb? I’m not trying to make your life difficult! Everybody has their own secrets! If I ask you to tell me the secrets of your tribe, would you tell me?”

“This… I’m really sorry! I was just being too curious! Forgive me for being so rude!”

“Okay. Don’t worry about it. You are a good man. I will not hold any grudges! So, I think that’s it for now! I have some other important matter that requires my attention! We shall meet at the martial arts competition! Bye!”

“Faction Leader Chen! Please hold on! If I desire to become your disciple, will you answer my questions?”

“I have told you that not just anyone can become my disciple!”

“Am I not worthy?”

Knowing that he was the number one genius in China and a talented prodigy in black magic, Tai Yitan could not figure out why Chen Xiaobei would not want him to become his disciple. Besides, he was more than powerful enough to get in top three in the upcoming martial arts competition!

“Faction Leader Chen! Please allow me to say something… Before our young witch master stepped into modern society, there were a lot of ancient factions that tried to recruit him. However, he rejected all of them! I don’t understand why would you reject such rare prodigy to become your disciple?”

“Heh! Ancient factions are nothing to me! Bei Xuan Faction is the most powerful faction in this Jianghu! Even if those ancient faction leaders desire to join my faction, there’s a high chance that I will reject them!

“This…”

Immediately, Tang Niu and Tai Yitan were rendered speechless. The two of them wanted to chide Chen Xiaobei for acting in such an arrogant manner. In the end, they chose to swallow down the criticism they had for Chen Xiaobei. They had seen a lot of people that liked to act tough in front of them but this was definitely their very first time encountering such an arrogant person!

“What now? You guys must be thinking that I’m just acting tough, right? Hehe… Think whatever you want! Bye!”

Chen Xiaobei had learned not to care what others thought about him. He knew better than anyone that he was not acting tough or being arrogant! Considering that his Sifu was the Prime of Tongtian and he had a group of deity friends as well, that was why all those ancient factions were not comparable to Bei Xuan Faction!

With the help of Red Envelope Group, Chen Xioabei had all the right in the world to look down on everything!

“Faction Leader Chen! Please hold on once again! I do not think that you are acting tough! I really want to become your disciple! Genuinely! Please favor me with this golden opportunity! At least tell me the things that I need to accomplish before earning the right to call you my Sifu!”

“Young master, let’s just go…”

Teng Niu had stayed closed with Tai Yitan for almost ten years. He had never seen his master beg someone in such a servile manner.

“No! I have made up my mind! No matter what, I have to become Faction Leader Chen’s disciple!”

Seeing Tai Yitan act in such determined manner, Chen Xiaobei finally wavered. Firstly, he was a good man! Secondly, he was very determined! Thirdly, he was a very talented young man. If Chen Xiaobei invested good resources into him, he would definitely become one of the most powerful forces in Bei Xuan Faction!

“Alright! Follow me since you are so determined about it! Do this thing with me and I will bring you into my faction!”

“Okay! No problem!”

Feeling excited, Tai Yitan brought Teng Niu with him and entered Chen Xiaobei’s car. On the way to the designation destination, Tai Yitan kept on pestering Chen Xiaobei.

“Sifu! Who is the one that taught you the secret technique? Why would the Spiritual Hexworm listen to your order? Please tell me! I can’t take it anymore!”

Chen Xiaobei kept on telling Tai Yitan that this was a top secret that that did not stop him from pursuing the answer.

“Sifu! Please just tell me! I will do whatever you ask me to do later! I’m even willing to risk my life for you! Just give me something! Please!”

“You win… I learned this secret technique from a great ancient witch! His knowledge about black magic is the best in this world! Ordinary people are not allowed to get close to him! And I don’t think you know him!”

“Okay… How about the Spiritual Hexworm? Why did it listen to your order?”

“It’s not listening to my order! It was obeying the order of the Spiritual Beast that is with me right now!”

“Xiao’er! You can come out now.”

*Buzz*

*Buzz*

Right after Chen Xiaobei finished talking, a golden bug came out from Chen Xiaobei’s sleeve. That was the Twelve Wings Golden Cicada! When Chen Xiaobei was dispelling the Tame Head earlier, Xiao’er was hiding inside Chen Xiaobei’s sleeve. And with a single order from Xiao’er, the Spiritual Hexworm came right out from the wound.

“T-this bug looks like the holy creature on the totem of Azure Witch Faction! The only difference is the bug in the picture has twelve wings!”

Chen Xiaobei smirked at him.

“I can’t believe that this is your Spiritual Beast! This is truly unbelievable!” said Tai Yitan in astonishment. Now, he felt like he had made the right decision to call Chen Xiaobei his Sifu. Before they realized it, the three of them had already arrived at an old and traditional mansion.

“Guiyan Mansion?!”

“Sifu. Why are we here?”

“We are here to destroy the place,” said Chen Xiaobei with an evil grin.

Chapter 773: Do You Even Know How to Write the Word ‘Death’?

“D-destroy the place?”

Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were taken aback.

“Sifu! Guiyan Mansion belongs to one of the four most powerful families, the Zhuang Family of Dragon City! Do you know what does four most powerful family mean?” said Tai Yitan while gulping. Cold sweat even started to cascade down his forehead.

“I know! You heard me right! I want to destroy their place! They almost killed me today! I will not let it go since the police can do nothing about them!”

“This…”

Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were left in bewilderment once again. Initially, they thought that Chen Xiaobei would make them pay the price by kicking Zhuang Bufan out of the entertainment industry. To their surprise, that was just a starter! The true revenge was to burn down the Zhuang Family’s mansion!

“Sifu, how well do you know the Zhuang Family? They are the most powerful family in the entire country! They play an important role in influencing the fields of politics and business! Especially politics! The leader of the family, Zhuang Hao has a high chance to reach the top of China’s political scene! This mansion is flooded with extremely powerful elites! I heard that the head servant has 36,000 combat power! Are you sure you want to destroy this place?”

Looking at Chen Xiaobei in astonishment, Tai Yitan and Teng Niu hoped that Chen Xiaobei had the wrong target.

“I’m sure of it! I’m not going to repeat the same thing over and over again! Come down with me or you can go home right now if you are feeling afraid!”

Tai Yitan and Teng Niu then looked into each other’s eyes. They started to realize that this was not a dream.

“No! I won’t leave! Sifu! Wait for me! I’m willing to do anything for you as long as I can earn the right to become your disciple!”

“And me! And me as well!” said Teng Niu.

The lost black magic!

The Spiritual Beast that was similar to the picture on Azure Witch Faction’s totem!

With all these things added up together, Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were sure that Chen Xiaobei had a lot to do with the witch tribe! And he was definitely no ordinary person! Being able to become his disciple was a rare golden opportunity that they would only encounter once in their life!

“Who are you guys?!”

Two security guards in black suits walked toward them the moment they got down from the car.

“Get lost right now! Right f*cking now! You guys have no right to be in this place!” exclaimed the bodyguards arrogantly.

“Sifu! Just tell us. What do you want us to do?”

Tai Yitan had already made up his mind that he would tear the place down with Chen Xiaobei tonight.

“Motherf*cker! Didn’t you hear what I just said? Do you what this place is? I’m going to destroy you and throw you in jail to rot!” The security guards hastened their steps and scolded.

Needless to say, these two security guards were definitely quite powerful since they were assigned to guard the front gate of Guiyan Mansion. That was why they were not afraid when they saw the tall and muscular Teng Niu.

“They threatened to destroy us. You shouldn’t ask for my orders anymore! As the young witch master of Miaojiang, you shouldn’t allow them to bully you! And as the disciples of Bei Xuan Faction, you guys should never allow anyone to step on your head! Double the pain that they intend to inflict on you!”

“I understand now!”

An icy aura exuded from Tai Yitan. Before he gave out any order, Teng Niu had already started to walk toward the enemies.

“Baldy! You’ve got balls! How dare you come at us?! Do you even know how to write the word ‘death’? Let me teach you!”

One of the security guards roared and charged at Teng Niu.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 12,000. Combat power: 12,000!]

Chen Xiaobei was taken aback after he checked them out with Netherspirit Battlescouter. A 12,000 combat power elite could earn a security guard position in Zhuang Family. One could tell that Zhuang Family was really powerful. Chen Xiaobei even started to doubt that Eunuch Su was not the powerful elite in the family. There should be someone more powerful than him within the family! Of course, Chen Xiaobei did not let the thought bother him. Since he had decided to come and destroy the place, he would not take a step back even if the Jade Emperor came and stop him!

“Die now!”

At the same time, the bodyguard had already dashed toward Teng Niu. With 12,000 combat power being fully channeled to his body, the security guard landed an explosive punch on Teng Niu’s chest.

“H-how is this even possible?”

Feeling shocked, the security guard could not feel the jolt even though he managed punch Teng Niu.

“Are you trying to ease my itch?”

With his eyebrows raised, Teng Niu lifted his fists and the sound of bone cracking resounded in the air. It was absolutely terrifying!

Ding!

[Cultivation: Pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 35,000. Combat power: 20,000 (+3,000)!]

After scanning Teng Niu with Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei realized that Teng Niu’s physique was really tough and powerful. Other than his own talent, Chen Xiaobei made a guess that Teng Niu might possess some special body enhancement technique to boost his health! Of course, Chen Xiaobei’s Emperor Health Ultimate Enhancement Skill was still better than Teng Niu’s body enhancement technique. The only thing he needed right now was Spiritual Qi and time!

“Let me teach you how to write the word death!”

With no hesitation, Teng Liu lowered down his body and used an uppercut to hit the security guard’s Dantian!

“Ouch!!”

Screaming in agony, the security guard was sent up to the sky for at least three to five meters! He then landed on the ground with severe injuries. When he turned his head he coughed out a mouthful of thick and warm blood.

“My Dantian is completely destroyed… My True Qi is disappearing… W-why would you do something like this?”

“Cut the crap! You are the one that claims that you want to destroy us! Should I be standing there and let you beat me up?!”

“Brother Mao! Hang on right there… I will bring some help…”

“Don’t dream of leaving this place… You have not asked for my permission!”

Teng Niu harrumphed and took out a whip that was made of green wine from his waist. He then lashed at the security guard with full force.

*Slash!*

With the loud noise pierce through the air, the security guard’s shirt and flesh were ripped!

*Swoosh*

Teng Niu shook the whip to make a knot on the security guard’s feet. He then pulled the whip and brought the security guard closer to him.

“No… Don’t destroy my cultivation… Losing the cultivation means losing everything to me… Please… I beg you…”

The security guard pleaded hysterically. However, Teng Niu could not be bothered. Without saying a single word, he landed a kick on his Dantian.

*Pow!*

His Dantian was shattered and his cultivation was destroyed.

“Sifu! What should we do next?” asked Tai Yitian.

“Go and break the door down!”

Chapter 774: Sifu Chen Zhufeng

There were a lot of historical buildings left in Dragon City. Millions and millions of tourist often came here to visit the historical sites. However, there were only a handful of people knew that there was a huge mansion beside Lake Guiyan that was located at the south side of Dragon City. The name of the mansion was Guiyan Mansion!

A long time ago, this place was like a summer house for the emperor. The name, Guiyan Mansion was engraved by the emperor himself. Until now, this mansion had been in the Zhuang Family’s possession. There were only less than four mansions in Dragon City that could be used to compare with Guiyan Mansion! Needless to say, the power and money that the Zhuang Family had were beyond one’s imagination.

*Swoosh*

Without saying a single word, Tai Yitan channeled his True Kang to his entire body and started to stride towards the mansion.

*Buzz*

*Buzz*

The lightning attribute True Kang soon surrounded his entire body. It was as if he was wearing a set of lightning armor.

“Divine Lightning Slash!” roared Tai Yitan when he arrived at the front gate of Guiyan Mansion.

Lifting both hands, a giant lighting serpent crawled along his hands and turned into a three-meter-long gigantic sword when it reached the end of his hand.

Divine Lightning Sword!

“Wind! Roar…”

Following by that, Tai Yitan swung the sword and landed it on the gate of Guiyan Mansion. The entire front yard – from the amber rooftop to the green jade stairs were being cut into half. Even the plate that was engraved with the name ‘Guiyan Mansion’ ended up in a sad state. Usually, a mansion’s front gate was equivalent to the family’s honor! Destroying the gate was equivalent to slapping the Zhuang Family’s face! No doubt, the Zhuang Family would definitely become Jianghu’s laughing stock if others knew about it!

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

It seemed that Tai Yitan had no intention of stopping. After destroying the gate, Tai Yitan continued to wreck the Zhuang Family’s front yard. With 33,000 combat power and True Kang, Tai Yitan’s could easily demolish the entire house like a machine! Judging from the sword mark on the front yard, it was not too hard to notice that his sword was only embedded with lighting attribute True Kang!

On the other hand, Chen Xiaobei Lightning Combat Spear could unleash the true lightning from the sky! With a single strike, Chen Xiaobei could destroy the entire front yard within few seconds! That was why Tai Yitan surrendered to Chen Xiaobei without putting up a fight. This also explained why he was so desperate to learn the lightning summoning skill from Chen Xiaobei.

“Who the hell is making a mess here? Do you have a death wish?”

Everyone from Guiyan Mansion woke up by the loud noise from the front yard. In an instant, a dozen security guards in black suits surrounded Tai Yitan. Right after that, a dozen special looking group of people came out from the house and gathered around Tai Yitan as well. Judging from their attire and physical appearance, one could know that their cultivation was more powerful than ordinary security guards.

On average, a security guard had 10,000 combat power. On the other hand, those that were in special attire possessed around 20,000 to 30,000 combat power. With that kind of cultivation and combat power, they could easily compare with some of the powerful faction in current Jianghu. In the end, even Eunuch Su had decided to come out from the mansion and check out the whole situation.

This old man possessed around 36,000 combat power! With him around, the Zhuang Family was definitely worthy enough to be compared with some of the top factions in Jianghu! As expected, Chen Xiaobei knew that there was someone more powerful protecting the Zhuang Family. In other words, the Zhuang Family was actually as powerful as Xuanjian Faction!

“Kid! Who the hell are you? Do you know what this place is?” Eunuch Su spoke menacingly while narrowing his eyes.

“Elder Su! Don’t waste your breath on that bastard! He is going to die today since he ruined our front yard!”

“That’s right! Not even the Jade Emperor can save him now!”

……..

Before letting Tai Yitan say anything, the crowd has already started to chide him. All of them were loyal guard dogs of the Zhuang Family. From the first day until now, they were always on the winning side when intruders came and disrupted the peace of Zhuang Family. Seeing that Tai Yitan just destroyed their front yard, they could feel that their faces were slapped by a cold hard slap. That was why they would definitely kill Tai Yitan to ease their anger.

“Are you the Tai Yitan from Miaojiang?”

At that moment, Zhuang Lao Taijun was escorted by Zhuang Hao to walk out from the mansion.

“Lao Taijun… Master Zhuang…”

Immediately, everyone bowed toward them and ceased talking.

“You know me?”

“You are the young witch master of Miaojiang! A genius in the field of black magic! I have read your information that you filled in for the upcoming martial arts competition. It is imperative to get to know our opponent! You do look like you are going to do something great in the future. Might I ask why you’d destroy our front yard? Did we offend you in any way?” asked Zhuang Lao Taijun.

The crowd was startled as they did not expect that the kid in front of them was someone really powerful.

“You go and ask your grandson Zhuang Bufan about it!”

“Oh? Bufan brought problems to us again? My grandson always causes a lot of problems when he is out! Just tell me about it and I will teach him a good lesson! Don’t you think you are overdoing it by destroying our front yard and gate?”

“Teach him a good lesson? He wouldn’t grow up in such bad shape if your lesson worked on him! He is trying to kill my Sifu! I don’t think I’m overdoing it!”

“Your Sifu? Have you joined an ancient faction? This is not possible… Bufan will never go and offend someone from an ancient faction!”

Though the Zhuang Family was really powerful in Dragon City, they still could not be compared with ancient factions.

“No. I did not join any ancient faction! The faction that I joined is one of the factions in Dragon City!”

“What? Did I hear it wrong?”

“That kid is a retard! Why would he go and join some random faction instead of ancient faction?”

“All the factions in Dragon City added up together are still weaker than a single ancient faction!”

….

They rolled their eyes, not understanding why Tai Yitan would make such a foolish decision.

“Young man! Watch what you say! I will not lay my finger on you if you are from an ancient faction! However, you will be killed tonight if it is true that you have joined some random faction!” said Zhuang Lao Taijun menacingly.

“Hehe… An ancient faction is nothing to me! I’m one of the disciples of Bei Xuan Faction! My Sifu is Chen Zhufeng!”

“What?!”

Everyone almost wet their pants when they heard that.

Chapter 775: Making the Most of It

“C-chen Zhufeng?”

Zhuang Lao Taijun, Zhuang Hao, and Eunuch Su were really shocked when they heard the name.

“Who the hell is Chen Zhufeng? I have never heard of his name before!”

The rest of the people did not take part in their last encounter with Chen Xiaobei. That was why they never heard of this name before.

“Ask your Sifu to come out and face us! I’m going to teach him a good lesson personally! There is no faction in Dragon City is bold enough to trifle with the Zhuang Family! He definitely has a death wish!” said a muscular guy while glaring at Tai Yitan.

“You are not worthy to fight with my Sifu!”

Tai Yitan was burning with battle intent as he gritted his teeth. He did not mind risking his life to get the recognition that he needed from Chen Xiaobei since he had already made up his mind to join Bei Xuan Faction. He would never retreat unless Chen Xiaobei asked him to do so.

*Slap*

Just when Tai Yitan wanted to extend his fist to the muscular guy, a loud slap was heard.

“Ouch…”

Spinning like a top, the muscular guy let out a scream of agony. He then coughed out a mouth of warm blood with teeth in it.

“W-what the hell is going on?”

Tai Yitan was taken aback. To his surprise, the one that slapped the muscular guy was Eunuch Su. Seeing that the muscular guy was hurt badly, one could see that Eunuch Su was not doing it for show.

“E-Elder Su… Why did you hit me?”

Bewildered, the muscular guy asked while coughing out blood. Other than him, everyone single security guard from the Zhuang Family felt the same as well.

“Why did I hit you? Demigod Chen is the kind of demigod that can control the weather! How dare you go against him? Don’t drag us down if you have a death wish!”

Likewise, Zhuang Lao Taijun and Zhuang Hao wanted to give a tight slap to that muscular guy as well. From there, one could see that Eunuch Su was telling the truth.

“H-how is this even possible… Demigod…”

Among all of them, Tai Yitan felt the most shock. Initially, he thought that Chen Xiaobei was just trying to act tough. Now, everything had changed! Bei Xuan Faction would become one of the most powerful factions on this planet if Chen Xiaobei was really a demigod. In other words, not even the faction leaders of ancient factions were worthy enough to join Bei Xuan Faction!

Tai Yitan could feel his heart beating really fast and goosebumps prickling all over his skin when he realized that his Sifu was a demigod. And at the same time, his blood was pumped as well. Tai Yitan was elated that he could call Chen Xiaobei his Sifu.

On the other hand, the three most powerful people in the Zhuang Family were still left in shock. In the first place, they never doubted that Chen Xiaobei was not a demigod. After discovering that a super genius like Tai Yitan volunteered to join Bei Xuan Faction, they had no reason to doubt Chen Xiaobei anymore.

With the Zhuang Family’s mention, Tai Yitan knew that Chen Xiaobei was a demigod. Now from Tai Yitan, Zhuang Family would never doubt that Chen Xiaobei was not the real deal. From here, Chen Xiaobei managed to gain absolute trust from both sides. None of them would ever go against him.

The identity as a demigod could be used to make Tai Yitan stay close to him and put pressure to his enemies.

‘This is what I call killing two birds with one stone!”

Just like what Chen Xiaobei expected, three most powerful people in the Zhuang Family were feeling afraid after knowing Tai Yitan had joined Bei Xuan Faction.

“Tai… No… Master Yitan… I think there is some misunderstanding between us… Let us clarify it right now. I have no idea that my grandson, Zhuang Bufan has offended Demigod Chen! Please at least give us a chance to explain ourselves!”

“Alright! I will let you know why you deserve to be killed!”

With a strong tone, Tai Yitan told them that Zhuang Bufan plotted to murder Chen Xiaobei.

“What an idiot! How dare he made such a stupid mistake?! Elder Su! Go and bring that idiot here!”

“Yes!”

Master Yitan. Can you please tell Demigod Chen that we have no idea that Zhuang Bufan had done such reckless and brainless stuff? Later, I will hand over that idiot to Demigod Chen. I hope Demigod Chen will not hold us responsible…”

“Hehe… Seems like someone wants to sacrifice a chess piece to protect the general!”

At that moment, Chen Xiaobei strode towards them with Teng Niu following behind him.

*Deep breath*

Immediately, Zhuang Lai Taijun and Zhuang Hao bowed at Chen Xiaobei.

“Welcome. Demigod Chen!”

Like a group of trembling chickens, all the security guards lowered their heads and none of them dare to move a single muscle.

“Sifu!”

Feeling excited, Tai Yitan ran and stood behind Chen Xiaobei. Clearly, he was very proud of having Chen Xiaobei as his Sifu.

“I have warned you guys earlier that if you with me again, I will destroy your entire family! Didn’t you heed my words?”

“Mercy, please… Demigod Chen…”

Zhuang Lao Taijun could feel fear was creeping into her body. Immediately, she kneeled before Chen Xiaobei.

“We wouldn’t dare to go against you even if we have all the power in this world! We had no idea that Zhuang Bufan had done such blasphemous thing! Please! Have mercy on us! This is not our fault!”

Upon seeing that, Zhuang Hao kneeled as well.

“Chen Zhufeng! Have mercy on us, please! It’s his fault! We have nothing to do with it! Please don’t kill us!”

When all the security guards saw the two most powerful family members kneeling in front of Chen Xiaobei, they immediately did the same thing as well. None of them dared to lift their heads.

“I agree with you! Alright! I’m going to give you a chance to explain yourself! I don’t want anyone of you here saying that I’m brutal and merciless!”

Upon hearing that, the family members of Zhuang Family let out a sigh of relief. The truth was Chen Xiaobei needed think of a good way to solve this problem. At that moment, Chen Xiaobei was not powerful enough to destroy the entire Zhuang Family. Everyone would know that he was not a demigod if he fought with them.

“But!”

Of course, he would not feel satisfied just by destroying the front gate and yard of the Zhuang Family.

“I will let you guys live! But there will be punishment!”

Chapter 776: Only One Skill

Punishment!

Upon hearing that, Zhuang Lao Taijun and Zhuang Hao were left in despair. Going against the demigod was their biggest mistake. Rendered with no other option, they could wait for Zhuang Bufan to come here. Elder Su was an expert in body movement techniques – allowing him to move faster than a car. Within seconds, Zhuang Bufan was brought to Chen Xiaobei. Other than him, Zhuang Jiuxiao and the assassin were forced to come along with him as well.

“W-what the hell is going on… Why are my grandma and father are kneeling on the ground?”

Zhuang Bufan was taken aback. He had never seen and would not imagine that they would kneel before someone. On the other hand, the assassin was equally shocked as well. Clearly, he knew that the Zhuang Family was so powerful that they would never succumb to anyone. However, the thing that he witnessed said otherwise.

“It’s him!”

Immediately, Zhuang Jiuxiao was left in bewilderment when he saw Chen Xiaobei was standing there. This was not the first time for him to witness his family members kneel in front of Chen Xiaobei. During the last incident, they were forced to slap their own faces while kneeling down. That was the kind of scene that he would never forget until the day he died.

“Why are we kneeling down here? You should ask yourself,” said Chen Xiaobei while looking at Zhuang Bufan disdainfully.

“Eh? Why is this son of a bitch here?” scolded Zhuang Bufan.

“Shut up! You idiot! You have caused enough trouble for us! Elder Su! Slap him!” said Zhuang Lao Taijun.

“Huh?”

Taken aback, Zhuang Bufan did not know what just happened. Before he realized it, a big slap had already landed on his face. The force delivered by Elder Su’s slap was so powerful that Zhuang Bufan was sent lying on the ground.

*Blarrgghh*

Promptly, Zhuang Bufan coughed out a mouthful of warm blood when he turned his head.

“W-why did you hit me?”

“And you have the gut to ask me this question? You were plotting to kill Demigod Chen! The trouble that you caused almost killed the entire family! Why do you have to act in such an innocent manner?”

“Chen? Demigod Chen? Could it be him?”

Zhuang Bufan looked at Chen Xiaobei in shock. Immediately, all the things that he believed in crumbled. Initially, he refused to believe that Chen Xiaobei was a demigod. Seeing his grandma and father kneeling down in front of Chen Xiaobei and the front yard was completely destroyed, he had no reason to not believe that Chen Xiaobei was not the real deal.

“No! I’m innocent! Innocent! This whole thing was plotted by Zhuang Jiuxiao! He is the one that hired the assassin! He is the one that paid the money! He coaxed me to drop a worm in Director Zhou’s drink! This is his plan! I shouldn’t be the one to be blamed!”

Considering that Zhuang Bufan and Zhuang Jiuxiao were not in good terms, Zhuang Bufan sold Zhuang Jiuxiao out without any hesitation. Upon hearing that, everyone shifted their attention to Zhuang Jiuxiao. Judging from the statement made by Zhuang Bufan, everyone realized that it actually made sense! Zhuang Jiuxiao was there during the last encounter with Chen Xiaobei. He also never believed that Chen Xiaobei was the real deal. All this time, he was thinking and planning ways to force him to reveal his real identity.

The most important thing was the assassin that was standing right beside him. With the Zhuang Family’s power, they could easily replace out who was the one that hired the assassin.

Knowing that he could not get away from this, Zhuang Jiuxiao gritted his teeth.

“Grandma! Listen to me! I’m willing to swear on my life that this bastard right here is no demigod!”

“Shut up! If you have a death wish, don’t bring your family down with you! Since everyone is here, I’m going to make an announcement that you are no longer part of the Zhuang Family! From this moment onward, we want nothing to do with you!”

“What?!”

Not only Zhuang Jiuxiao, everyone around them was baffled. All this while, Zhuang Jiuxiao was known as the number one genius in the family. Since young, the family had invested a lot of resources in him – hoping that he would become the left and right hand of the family. No one would expect that Zhuang Lao Taijun would make such a decision. In order to protect the entire family, she was willing to cut off all the connections they had with Zhuang Jiuxiao.

Without the ability to make such decisions, Zhuang Lao Taijun would not be able to make sure that the family would continue to grow. Although she was just a woman, she was equipped with the ability to make tough and brutal decisions. Even Chen Xiaobei was impressed by the move she made.

“Grandma! How can you do this to me? Can’t you just believe me? Just once! Just attack him! And his real identity will be exposed!”

Crumbling down, there was no way that Zhuang Jiuxiao could accept such fate. In his mind, he was sure that Chen Xiaobei was no demigod. However, he could not figure out why his grandma refused to believe in him no matter what he did.

“Jiuxiao! Zhuang Lao Taijun is the pillar of this family! She always looks at the bigger picture before she makes any decision! You need to understand that!”

The thing that Elder Su just said seemed fine. However, he did emphasize the sentence ‘you need to understand that’.

Stunned, Zhuang Jiuxiao finally understood what Elder Su was trying to tell him.

“I understand now! From this moment onwards! The Zhuang Family has nothing to do with me! I will bear full responsibility!”

“Hehe… So, are you going to sacrifice for your family?” asked Chen Xiaobei in a playful manner.

In truth, Elder Su actually had a secret intention when he talked to Zhuang Jiuxiao. With Zhuang Jiuxiao being cut off from the family, anything that he did had nothing to do with the family. Now, he could do whatever he wanted to do to Chen Xiaobei and the Zhuang Family would not be part of it. Chen Xiaobei would be forced to reveal his real identity if Zhuang Jiuxiao attacked him. By that time, the Zhuang Family would definitely work together to kill him.

In other words, Zhuang Lao Taijun was using her grandson as a bargaining chip. Chen Xiaobei knew their plan but he chose not to call them out on it.

“Azure Witch! I’m willing to pay you triple to kill that bastard! Work together with me to force that son of a bitch to reveal his true identity! Today we are going to end him!”

“Okay! I will take this deal! I don’t believe there are demigods in this world! Even if there is a demigod, he would not be that young!”

Azure Witch licked his lips as greed could be seen reflected from his eyes.

“Demigod Chen! Do you dare to fight with me?!” said Zhuang Jiuxiao.

“Heh… I’m not going to move my hands and legs! I’m not going to use my True Kang as well! And if I can’t kill the two of you with a single skill – I will call myself a loser!”

Chapter 777: Turn into Ashes

“What? Not going to use your legs and hands to fight with us? And no True Qi or True Kang will be involved as well? How is that even possible?”

“And you even boast that you are going to kill the two of us with only one skill? That is just plain ridiculous!”

“That’s right! Not even the demigod can do something like that!”

……..

None of them believed what Chen Xiaobei just said as they looked at him doubtfully. Even Tai Yitan had a hard time being convinced.

“That assassin is the traitor of Azure Witch Faction. I was still a little kid when he betrayed the faction. That is why he failed to recognize me. I remember his cultivation was True Nirvana when he left the faction. I’m pretty sure he is stronger now!” whispered Tai Yitan.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of True Nirvana stage. Health: 33,000. Combat power: 33,000!]

With the help of Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei found out that the assassin was more powerful now – like what Tai Yitan told him earlier. It was impossible for Chen Xiaobei to defeat him since he only had 30,000 health.

“Hehe… So what? I can kill him like I would a chicken within ten steps!”

“What…”

The crowd was in disbelief that Chen Xiaobei could defeat an elite with True Nirvana within ten steps! A simple statement from him was enough to make everyone look at him in astonishment. Some of them even start to think that Chen Xiaobei was actually a demigod. A normal elite would not possess such immensely powerful presence.

“Bastard! Stop tricking us! How is possible that you can defeat without using your hands, legs, and even your Qi?!”

“Don’t even try to terrify me! You have failed miserably! Combat power is the iron rule here! Let’s go and kill that son of a bitch! After that, I will pay you triple of what I promised you earlier!” said Zhuang Jiuxiao determinedly.

Money is the root of evil. Azure Witch was willing to betray the faction because of money. He clearly believed that becoming an assassin could bring him more comfort in life.

“Alright! Let’s do this!”

Even if Chen Xiaobei was some kind of super elite – without channeling Qi to his body, he was no different from an ordinary person. That was why Chen Xiaobei was no threat to them.

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

Zhuang Jiuxiao and Azure Witch dashed toward Chen Xiaobei at the same time. Both of them mustered all their strength in order to kill Chen Xiaobei instantly. Even if they could not kill him, they had every intention to expose his real identity. Once they manage to ascertain that Chen Xiaobei was not a demigod, everyone from Zhuang Family would surround and attack him.

“Sifu! Be careful!”

Tai Yitan was extremely worried because he could not sense any True Qi from Chen Xiaobei.

“The enemies are too powerful! It’s impossible to block their attack without using True Kang!”

Teng Niu could not help but gulp repeatedly. He would be killed in an instant if he was in Chen Xiaobei’s position now – considering that the enemies had no intention to show any mercy to him.

“Don’t behave so shocked. You are embarrassing my Bei Xuan Faction! So, he is the traitor of Azure Witch Faction? I’m going to use black magic to kill him!”

“Rea… Really?”

Tai Yitan and Teng Niu’s eyes widened slightly. Even so, they could not figure out what Chen Xiaobei was going to do to him. Chen Xiaobei then raised his left hand and aimed at the enemies with his palm. He still did not channel any single ounce of True Qi to his body.

“In ten steps, you will die!”

When the enemies took their tenth step, Chen Xiaobei summoned a green flame pillar from his Wrath Bolt Ring with only his sheer mind.

“What is that?”

Everyone was taken aback. Seemingly, Chen Xiaobei was going to launch the green flame to kill the two of them.

“Is that some kind of black magic?”

Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were baffled by it.

“It’s just a stupid trick! That’s only a fire summoning skill! That’s not black magic! What a joke!”

It seemed that not even the assassin could recognize the skill that Chen XIaobei just launched at them as he roared with laughter.

“Fire summoning skill? That is just a fire talisman that he hid in his sleeves before he started battling us! Don’t even dream of killing us with such stupid skill! Fool!” said Zhuang Jiuxiao.

“Watch me!”

Zhuang Jiuxiao then channeled all his True Qi to his palm and a white ray shot out from it.

*Pow!*

The green flame shattered into a dozen green flame balls when the white ray hit it.

“Trash!”

Zhuang Jiuxiao and Azure Witch started to laugh loudly. Behind them, the Zhuang Family started to doubt that Chen Xiaobei was not a demigod. Zhuang Lao Taijun was furious – she would not hesitate to order everyone around to kill Chen Xiaobei if he was really that weak. On the other hand, Tai Yitan and Teng Niu were taken aback when they witnessed the green flame pillar shatter into pieces. They were wondering if Chen Xiaobei was going to use his True Kang to continue the battle. However, that would mean Chen Xiaobei was going to break his oath.

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

Just as everyone started to doubt Chen Xiaobei, all the green flame balls exploded. Following that, the green flames started to fly everywhere. Some of them landed on Zhuang Jiuxiao and the assassin. This green flame thus started to consume them immediately.

“Ouch… Ouch… What the hell is going on? Why is this happening?”

In an instant, the two of them turned into ashes. When the wind swept through them, both of them ceased to exist.

“H-how is that even possible?”

Earlier, Chen Xiaobei did say he would kill them within ten steps. This statement rang in their minds repeatedly after witnessing Zhuang Jiuxiao and the assassin being killed. All the doubts they had vanished!

“Sifu! You are almighty!” Tai Yitan praised.

Teng Niu on the other hand was lost for words.

“Demigod God is the most powerful entity on this earth! We are going to kowtow at you sincerely!” said Zhuang Lao Taijun.

With her taking the lead, everyone did the same. It was as if they were worshipping a god.

Chapter 778: Pleasant Surprise

“Kowtowing is useless! I knew your dirty little plan all along!”

Chen Xiaobei glared at them mercilessly.

“Mercy, please… My God… Please let us live… Zhuang Jiuxiao has nothing to do with us… He alone should bear full responsibility for his wrongdoings toward you… Our entire Zhuang Family will definitely not do anything that might anger you…” said Zhuang Lao Taijun fearfully as her body trembled uncontrollably.

Immediately, the rest of the Zhuang Family started to beg Chen Xioabei hysterically.

“God Chen… Please don’t kill us… We will never disrespect you… Mercy please…”

Seconds ago, they were planning to attack Chen Xiaobei together and rip him into pieces. Now they were all afraid of him. Clearly, they knew he could turn them into a pile of ashes with only a single move. The green flame that they saw just now was enough to terrify them for a very long time. If Tai Yitan and the assassin claimed that they had never seen such things in their lives before, ordinary people would not have seen or heard about it.

The green flame was not an earthly thing to them. Instead, it belonged in heaven! Those who touched it would be killed instantly.

“You are actually smart enough to cut off all connections with that idiot! I will not kill your family members! However, there will be punishment!”

For now, Chen Xiaobei was still not powerful enough to destroy the entire family. However, he wanted to teach them a good lesson.

“My God! Just tell us! We will do whatever you want us to do as long as we get to live to see tomorrow!”

Immediately, Zhuang Lao Taijun said yes to Chen Xiaobei while doing her kowtow. Chen Xiaobei did not say a single word. All he did was lifted one of his fingers.

“What… What does this mean?” asked Zhuang Lao Taijun, baffled.

“I understand now! You want money? Is ten billion enough? No problem! No problem at all!” said Zhuang Hao, elated.

To him, a problem was not a problem as long as it could be solved by money. Using ten billion to save the entire family was definitely a good deal for them.

“How about I pay all of you one hundred billion to kill yourselves?” asked Chen Xiaobei disdainfully. Originally, Chen Xiaobei had thirteen billion in his account. After taking eighty billion USD from Pikaka, Chen Xiaobei now had around five hundred billion in his account. Using one hundred billion to kill the entire Zhuang Family was actually quite a good deal as well.

“How much are you asking? Three hundred billion? Five hundred billion?” asked Zhuang Hao while smiling.

Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei was ecstatic. Initially, he was actually considering taking ten billion from them. However, Zhuang Hao increased the amount of money to five hundred billion in one go. That was definitely not a small number. Earlier, Chen Xiaobei was asking Focker to buy a huge amount of Spiritual Stones. Not too long ago as well, he wanted to buy all kinds of ultra-expensive ingredients to concoct the Skybreaking Cultivation Pill. In order to complete these two tasks, Chen Xiaobei would need a huge amount of money.

Though Focker was extremely rich, there was still a Rothchild Family on top of him. The family would definitely be alerted if a huge amount of money was being used. With that being said, Chen Xiaobei would need to spend from his own pocket to avoid being targeted by those powerful families.

Just when Chen Xiaobei ready to say yes to Zhuang Hao, something unexpected happened!

“Idiot! Do you really think my Sifu sees value in money? He is a demigod! To him, money is shit! In other words, you are offering shit to the demigod! It seems like you have a death wish!”

“Si…”

Immediately, Zhuang Hao took a deep breath. Taken aback, he said, “N-n-no… I don’t mean that! God Chen! Please have mercy on us…”

“We are still not wise enough to understand what you are trying to tell us… Please show us the way…” said Zhuang Lao Taijun while gulping.

At that moment, Chen Xioabei was speechless. Initially, he just wanted to end the whole thing by taking five hundred billion from Zhuang Family. To his surprise, Tai Yitan did something that he never expected. Let alone Zhuang Lao Taijun, not even Chen Xiaobei knew what should he do right now.

“What kind of stupidity is this? Isn’t it clear that my Sifu wants more Spiritual Stones for himself? I don’t think you guys possess that much of Spiritual Stones anyway! Just bring out one thousand of it! If not, we will destroy you!” said Tai Yitan.

“What?! One thousand Spiritual Stones?”

Everyone including Chen Xiaobei was shocked by it. Even he never thought of asking for Spiritual Stones from the Zhuang Family. Now, Chen Xiaobei finally knew that Tai Yitan was an extremely smart and reliable disciple. Needless to say, Chen Xiaobei would definitely choose Spiritual Stones over money. After all, it required a lot of time to gather all the Spiritual Stones that he needed.

One Spiritual Stone cost around one billion for one and most of the time it was hard to get by them. Chen Xiaobei wanting to earn so much money was to purchase more Spiritual Stones. He could save a lot of trouble and time if Zhuang Family could just give him all the Spiritual Stones that he needed. After receiving such decent surprise, Chen Xiaobei started to like Tai Yitan even more.

On the other hand, Zhuang Family was completely surprised by Tai Yitan’s request. One thousand Spiritual Stones were equivalent to one thousand billion RMB. Although Zhuang Family was extremely rich, it was still a request that they had to think twice to before saying yes. Even if they had one trillion cash right now, they had to spend a lot of time and effort to look for one thousand Spiritual Stones.

Asking them to give out one thousand Spiritual Stones was worse than cutting off their flesh from their bodies. However, Tai Yitan did not seem to care about their concern. He then continued to pressure them.

“You have three seconds to think about it!”

*Si…*

Zhuang Lai Taijun took a deep breath. It felt as though her head was being pierced by a thousand needles. Of course, she still knew that family came first before anything else. Soon, she managed to make up her mind.

“We will give you one thousand Spiritual Stones! Zhuang Hao! Go to our vault and bring out one thousand Spiritual Stones to give to God Chen!”

“Yes…”

Feeling frustrated, Zhuang Hao was actually not willing to do so. He almost fell to the ground when he stood up. It was as if all his energy from his body was drained.

“Vault?”

The word, vault managed to trigger Chen Xiaobei’s curiosity. There were definitely other more valuable items in the vault since they stored one thousand Spiritual Stones inside it. It would be awesome if Chen Xiaobei could sneak into their vault someday. He intended to bag all the items inside the vault when the time was right.

Chapter 779: Dark Power

The vault of the Zhuang Family.

There must be tight security around it. It was almost impossible for outsiders to break into this vault and locating it would be a big problem as well. Chen Xiaobei needed to come up with a perfect plan before bagging everything inside the vault into his treasure chest. Without a perfect plan, Chen Xiaobei could be alerting the entire the Zhuang Family and he would get into big trouble. That was why Chen Xiaobei left the place with Tai Yitan and Teng Niu right after he received one thousand Spiritual Stones from the Zhuang Family. On the other hand, every Zhuang Family member was still kneeling on the ground impassively. It was as if they had lost part of their soul.

At Bei Xuan Faction.

Tai Yitan had officially become Chen Xiaobei’s disciple. He finally earned the right to pass the Puzzle Formation and enter Bei Xuan Faction. Considering that Tai Yitan wanted to learn black magic from Chen Xiaobei, he would definitely stay loyal to him. From this moment onward, he would become one of Chen Xiaobei’s most trusted allies.

“Sifu. How did you kill the two of them just now? I have never seen that green flame in my life before! Why did you claim that it is a form of black magic?”

Seeing that there was no one around them, Tai Yitan could not help but ask.

“Look at it yourself.”

With only his sheer will, Chen Xiaobei summoned a green flame that was as big as a coin on his palm.

“This… This is a worm?! A hexworm?!”

“That’s right. This hexworm is called Infernal Flying Hexworm. I came across this hexworm when I was traveling in Zhong State.”

Chen Xiaobei then took out the book called Primary Hexworm Growing Manual and passed it to Tai Yitan.

“Seeing that you don’t even recognize the Infernal Flying Hexworm, I guess all the ancient black magic was completely lost. Take it and spend some time reading it. Come and ask me if you have anything that you can’t understand.”

“Yes, Sifu!”

Upon receiving the book, Tai Yitan treated it as a priceless treasure, excited.

“Alright. If there’s nothing else, I would like to do some training right now. You should go back first!” said Chen Xiaobei while waving his hands.

“Then I should leave you be for now!”

Tai Yitan exited the room politely.

*Swoosh…*

Chen Xiaobei instantly dropped one thousand Spiritual Stone on the floor. They were all shining like stars in the sky. Following that, Chen Xiaobei took out his Green Jade Gourd and started to drain all the Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Stones. After crafting the Infinite Space Ring, the Spiritual Qi left in the Green Jade Gourd was equivalent to eight thousand Spiritual Stones. During the Mamba Island incident, Chen Xiaobei let Xiangyi take a sip from it and the Spiritual Qi left in the Green Jade Gourd was equivalent to seven thousand Spiritual Stones.

The higher the cultivation, the more Spiritual Qi a Dantian could store. Without wasting any time, Chen Xiaobei quickly went into training mode. Needless to say, Chen Xiaobei now was going to focus on training the Emperor Health Ultimate Enhancement Skill. His main priority was to boost his health to match up with his combat power. When health matches combat power, Chen Xiaobei could carry on with the journey to boost his cultivation to a higher level.

If not, his body would not be able to utilize all the excessive combat power that he had in his body.

Time flew.

Three days and three night had passed…

*Ring*

*Ring*

The alarm that Chen Xiaobei set three days ago finally went off. He then slowly got out from his mediation.

*Exhale*

Chen Xioabei exhaled a mouthful of filthy vapor. Both of his eyes shone like newborn stars. It seemed that his energy level was boosted greatly.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of True Nirvana Stage. Health: 33,000. Combat power: 30,000!]

“Increasing my health by 3,000 within three days! The improvement speed was still as fast as usual!”

With the help of the Primordial Witch Combat Enhancement Training Manual, Chen Xiaobei could boost his combat power up to 33,000! According to the thing that Luo Puti told him earlier, elites that were going to take part in the martial arts competition like Tai Yitan, Wu Aofeng, and Huo Yuanba possessed around 33,000 combat power.

Now, Chen Xiaobei was as powerful as them. Since the martial arts competition was going to be held after the Lunar New Year, Chen Xiaobei still had a lot of time to train himself to become more powerful. By that time, Chen Xiaobei should be able to defeat all his opponents and become the champion. Seemingly, everything was going according to his plan. The only problem was the lack of Spiritual Qi.

“In only three days, the amount of Spiritual Qi that I consumed is equivalent to one thousand Spiritual Stones! With that being said, a single Spiritual Stone only increases 33 health! Last time, a Spiritual Stone could increase at least 100 health! Now it has been cut down greatly. It seems like True Nirvana is not an easy phase.”

“Just like playing games, the higher level one gets to; the more experience one needs to get to the next level! However, I still have around 7,000 Spiritual Stones inside my Green Jade Gourd. I think that should be more than enough to be used to boost my health! My only concern is activating the Soul Consuming Enigmatic Jade. I will need 10,000 Spiritual Stones to transform it… That is definitely a long journey and process. I wonder how many Spiritual Stones the Zhuang Family possesses. I really want to go into the vault and check it out.”

“Why is the chess piece that I planted inside the Zhuang Family is not moving yet? I will have the opportunity to sneak into the vault if he makes a move!”

It had been quite some time since Chen Xiaobei planted this chess piece in the Zhuang Family and no one knew about it as well. The name of this chess piece was Zhuang Yuejin. Chen Xiaobei crossed paths with this person when he went to the ancient forest to look for the Black Star Ganoderma. All he needed right now was to wait for Zhuang Yuejin to work together with him.

“Never mind… It’s useless for me to keep thinking about it. I will have to wait for Zhuang Yuejin to look for me before I can do anything solid. I should head to the airport now to pick up Fire Boss and the rest of them.”

After cleaning up, Chen Xiaobei went to the airport to pick them up immediately. The Lunar New Year was just around the corner. Fire Boss and Jing Fei had agreed to celebrate the new year at Paradise Island and thus would arrive at Dragon City today. Although Chen Xiaobei was their master, he still treated them as his good friends. That was why he wanted to pick them up personally.

…

At the same time.

Somewhere around the Indian Ocean.

A giant rescue ship was searching for something. The divers were equipped with proper gears and jumped into the sea one by one. At the front part of the rescue ship, a US officer was standing together with a man in a long robe.

“Master Gustav… Pardon me for telling the truth. The sea is so big. The possibility of locating Duke Gustav’s body is close to zero!”

“Don’t worry! I can sense that my grandpa’s body is just around here! My grandpa is a duke in the family and he possesses Dark Power! I, Damien Gustav, am his sole heir! I’m pretty sure that I’m not looking at the wrong place!”

Chapter 780: The Blood Descendant

Damien Gustav!

The Marquis of America’s Deathbane Family. He was also the grandson of Grand Duke H?hn Gustav. H?hn Gustav was the one that traveled with Chen Xiaobei to Paradise Island on the same yacht. During that incident, Chen Xiaobei put a Mother-Child Hexworm in his body. Before Niya made a single move, Chen Xiaobei was afraid that he might betray him at the last minute, So, he appointed Hades to kill him.

After that, his body was tossed into the sea – carried away by the waves and now he was nowhere to be found. Damien Gustav claimed that he could use his sense to replace his grandpa’s body. That was why he used his connection to ask the US military to help him. Considering that sea waves were constantly moving, that made it very difficult for them to locate the body.

The US officer asked in frustration, “We have been looking for his body for a very long time. Are we just going to stay here until we replace the body?”

“That’s right! We have to look for my grandpa’s body! When I found his body, I will be able to look for the one that killed him and inherit his power!”

“Um… Pardon me telling you something about this sea… But, I think it’s crucial for me to warn you about this… Recently, there are some rumors going on in the military. They are saying this area of sea is the holy sea! One will not end up well if the person disrupts the peace in this area!”

“Heh… Why would you believe in such ridiculous tale?” said Damien while laughing disdainfully.

“I’m telling you the truth! The carrier fleet Zuckerberg vanished into thin air after they carried out their mission at this area! There’s no other explanation except for they were being punished by God!”

“Do I really need to tell you the truth? I’m pretty sure the higher authority gave them instructions to move to a different place! This is not the first time anyway!”

“Not possible! I will definitely be informed if that really happened!”

“Five years ago, Clint carrier fleet was sent to the Pacific Ocean to kill a sea monster. Did you know that? And three years ago, the Saint Blade 1st Armored Division was sent to explore an ancient tomb! All 20,000 of them! Have you heard of that?! And this year, god knows what kind of assignment they assigned to Zuckerberg carrier fleet!”

Damien shrugged and continued, “There are only a handful of people are informed of these top-secrets!”

“This…”

Immediately, the US officer was taken aback. He had never heard any of the things that Damien mentioned just now. To them, they all sounded like stories from a sci-fi movie. Soon after that, the US officer began to think that everything that Damien just said was the truth!

*Buzz*

*Buzz*

“Report! Report! We have found Duke Gustav’s body! We found it!”

Someone was talking over the walkie-talkie.

“Quick! Bring him up! Your… Your prediction just came true… We manage to replace a needle in a haystack!” said the US officer while looking at Damien in a baffled manner.

“Hmph! I have told you that I’m the sole heir of the family! There is dark blood flowing in my body!”

With a smile, Damien walked to the deck. Soon, a pale looking body was placed beside him.

“A blood descendant is really different from ordinary human beings! I can’t believe the body did not rot after being left in the sea for such a long time!”

“His neck was broken! I believe someone far more powerful than him killed him with brute force!”

“With this, you still can’t make sure of the real identity of the killer. I think all the fingerprints on his body were washed away after soaking in the sea for such a long time…”

“I don’t need you to state the obvious!”

Damien laughed coldly and proceeded to lift H?hn’s body.

“Master Damien, what are you going to do?”

Seconds later, the US officer was shocked by what he saw.

*Slurp*

*Slurp*

With no hesitation, Damien bit on H?hn’s neck and started to suck all his blood to his body.

“W-what the hell are you doing?”

“Is he… sucking blood from a dead body?”

“That’s his grandpa’s body… This is just too grotesque…”

….

Left in extreme fear and shock, the US officer and the rest of the people on the deck were drenched in cold sweat and they stepped away from Damien.

Soon, the sound of sucking something dry could be heard from Damien’s mouth. He then opened up his mouth and licked the dark blood off the corners of his mouth in relish. At the same time, H?hn’s body had already turned into a dried corpse.

“Woo… Ah!!!”

While everyone was looking at him fearfully, Damien roared like a beast. The sound wave was so powerful that it hurt their ears. His powerful presence also made their hearts jump up and down really fast. Some of them even felt that they were being suffocated. Seconds later, something weird was unveiled before them.

Damien’s blond hair had turned white, his eyes were filled with blood, and his pupils were now silver. No doubt he looked like a monster now. A set of fangs started to grow out from his mouth and his nails on his fingers were transformed into sharp claws. The most unbelievable part was, a pair of bat liked wings grew on his back!

“V-vampire!”

“He is a real vampire… This is so scary… Run… Run!”

The people on the ship started to scream hysterically. The timid ones even started to run for their lives. Though the tale of vampires was widely spread in European countries, there were only a handful of them who had seen an actual one. It was no wonder that they completely freaked out when they saw a demon stood in front of them.

On the other hand, the US officer had prepared himself earlier. He still managed to muster enough courage to maintain his composure. Whey they were searching for Damien’s grandpa’s body, he talked to Damien quite a bit about the tale of the blood descendant. The truth was he actually received more fear as compared to others!

“Bloodshot eyes with silver pupils! White hair and wings that are made of flesh! M-master Damien… Have you been promoted from a marquis to a duke?” asked the US officer fearfully.

“Heh… Do you really need to ask me the question? This is how blood descendants pass on their power to their heir! There was a dark connection between me and my grandpa! Now, all his power and memory have become part of me!”

“This… This is the power that you acquired from the dark realm…”
