Feiyun didn’t recklessly come forward either since the consort had great cultivation . This rockslide alone was probably not enough to crush her to death . He wasn’t her match even at the fifth level .
The cultivators from the Beiming were dead, leaving their weapons behind .
Feiyun waved his hand and these weapons flew towards his Heavenly Weapon Essence . It absorbed the essences and intents and turned them into scrap metals, falling all over the ground .
The weapon essence’s light became brighter; its sharpness increased by one level .
Feiyun turned it into a saber and walked slowly towards the mound of rocks spanning for more than twenty miles . He unleashed ninety slashes in succession before clearing the thing completely .
There was no sign of her, only a bloodied black cloak belonging to the consort . The blood has yet to dry .
“Wounded but still escaped . ” Feiyun picked it up and extracted the blood . It floated in the air and condensed into a single drop .
He put it away before heading for the other side of the spirit vein since he heard screams earlier . By the time he got there, he found corpses with their heart penetrated .
Not a single person was left alive .
“Looks like there is a top master in the inn, probably connecting this spirit vein from another location to this place . ” Feiyun absorbed the weapons of the dead into his essence before returning to the surface .
He climbed out of the cliff and saw corpses as far as the eye can see . IThis carnage looked like a scene of hell .
Their blood stained the ground red, truly a shocking scene . Anyone who knew about the spirit vein was dead .
Bu Tian was dead as well . His corpse hung on an old pine tree since there was a branch piercing through his heart . Blood dripped out of that spot down to his shoes before dropping to the ground .
A peak half-step Giant couldn’t escape this disaster either . He died without being aware of his killer .
Feiyun wanted to kill him . Unfortunately, he has brought about his own demise by telling everyone about the vein . They might have survived otherwise .
The thick stench of blood became nauseating and made worse by the cold winds .
Feiyun trod through the fleshy bits on the ground towards the inn . He saw the six generals lying in pools of blood; their heart pierced as well . They have heard about the vein and couldn’t escape this disaster .
The inn was still brightly lit with many merchants waiting outside . They didn’t come to observe so they didn’t find out about the spirit vein .
“How the hell did everyone die?”
“The way they screamed… so horrifying . Something monstrous took them down, maybe?”
“It’s good that I never left this spot or I would be dead too…”
The merchants chatted while staying inside their tent, not daring to come out .
They were honest and rather obedient . This type usually lived a long life .
Feiyun looked at the worker holding the jade ruler . He looked quite relaxed while patrolling around the area . He saw Feiyun’s glance and revealed a rather complicated smile .
‘Still smiling despite the casualties, looks like the inn has something to do with this . But I also know about it, why aren’t they trying to eliminate me?’ Feiyun thought .
He had a serious expression as he entered the inn for the second time . The atmosphere was quite tense with many guests gathering by the main hall .
There seemed to be a separate event going on here . They didn’t know about the massacre outside .
“Shi Zhenxiang, this is Spirit Domain . If you dare to cause trouble, I, Guo Dahai, will have your head . ” Dahai raised his large blade . A soul of a wild bull towering at seven meters rushed out from him with strong battle intent .
The man in front of him was more than five meters tall, wearing leather and holding beast bones . Feiyun has met the guy before and he tried to instigate a fight between Feiyun and Bu Tian for his own gains .
His name was Shi Zhenxiang, the third tribe lord from Heavenly Witch Division - one of the three largest tribes in Ancient Jiang . He came to talk about an alliance with the Beiming and has been waiting for several days .
His physical constitution was amazing . The bones on his back were shiny and contained massive divinity .
He looked down at Guo Dahai and smirked: “Dahai, don’t think I’m afraid of you because you’re an officer here . Without your army, I just need to swing my bones and you’ll be crushed to death . Scram, I only want that girl, don’t piss me off and make me kill you too . ”
He originally was on the cliff to watch the fight, wanting to kill Feiyun for his treasures . However, He saw Feiyun capable of killing the Corpse King and a Giant so he decided to retreat . His new goal was to grab Bai Ruxue whom he has been lusting after for a while now then run before Feiyun could break through .
However, Guo Dahai had just come back from the depths of the inn . The two of them got into a standoff .
Strategist Mo played with his long and thin mustache: “Shi Zhenxiang, do you not know whose woman you’re trying to mess with? You dare to touch the Divine King’s woman?”
“Keke! Divine King my ass, just a brat still wet behind the ears . ” He has never left the barbaric region of Jiang . In his eyes, the prettiest girl in the world was Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess .
However, she was unreachable and always had twelve Divine Guards nearby . Though he was the third lord, he still didn’t dare to have any ideas about her .
Bai Ruxue was a tiny bit inferior to the goddess, but she was still a fairy on earth . He salivated at the thought of having her . That’s why he instigated and wanted Bu Tian to kill Feiyun .
“You dare to rebel?” The strategist said .
“Jin? Haha, Jin is done for now with uprisings everywhere . It’s only a matter of time before the capital falls . Our tribe will also unite the others and become the lord of Ancient Jiang . We’ll march southward then and expedite Jin’s destruction . ” Zhenxiang thunderously declared in an arrogant manner .
His eyes were fixated on Bai Ruxue . He wanted nothing more than to push her down on the ground and go all out - the same thing he has done to many girls before in the forests .
Ruxue was afraid of this brute due to his gigantic frame . If she were to fall into his grasp, death was a likely outcome after the rape .
Guo Dahai coldly responded: “You far underestimate me . I will show you the might of the army today . ”
“Since some people wish for my death, I don’t mind playing along . ” Feiyun revealed his presence, standing behind Shi Zhenxiang . His bloody weapon essence turned into a spear with a violet glow . Blood was still dripping down .
Dahai and the strategist were ecstatic to see him coming back . Their gamble has paid off since the king had a unique relationship with the empress . Earning his grace meant endless possibilities for the future .
The strategist took out a black iron fan and spoke on the side of justice: “Zhenxiang, you spout nonsense about rebelling on top of wanting to take the Divine King’s woman, why don’t you take a look at yourself first? You think you’re qualified to compete with His Excellency?”
He used to the master of a tiny sect before joining the court . He was a late-stage half-step but because he didn’t have a merit law suitable for the next level, he couldn’t become a Giant .
It would be so easy to gain this merit law after pleasing the Divine King .
Zhenxiang was in a predicament because he was surrounded . All three enemies were tough too .
It seemed that a battle was inevitable . However, a supreme voice came from the stone forest: “Spirit Domain is only a tiny inn . The three of you will only destroy it completely by fighting here, sigh . ”
Her pitiful sigh invoked empathy .
Feiyun sniffed and sensed the faint demonic energy again . Just what kind of demons dared to infiltrate a human dynasty?
The fog and mist dispersed from the stone forest . One could see a woman dressed in white sitting on an ancient platform made out of stone while playing a zither . Delicate fingers; beautiful features; a good song named “Beauty” .
"For whom the beauty smiles as youth is passing by? In this mundane realm, the heart will not age, but without you, the world is a waste . Don't climb all alone till gray hair flutters on the steep pavilion . With no time remaining, who will draw her eyebrows in the end?”
