By the time Sun Wang came to his senses, a giant fist, shimmering with yellow light, was already upon him, striking his protective spiritual barrier.
With a dull thud, Sun Wang was sent flying backward, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
Before he could catch his breath, the sky darkened, and a giant seal, shimmering with yellow light, appeared out of nowhere above his head, crashing down towards him.
Sun Wang paled with fright. He tried to dodge, but to his horror, he found a powerful gravitational force emanating from the ground. He was like a magnet, firmly stuck to the earth and unable to move.
He flicked his sleeve, and a blood-red flying knife shot out. After emitting a dazzling blood-red light, the flying knife rapidly grew in size and met the yellow giant seal.
At the same time, a large cloud of blood mist surged around him.
The yellow giant seal collided with the blood-red flying knife, creating a muffled clang, and the seal's descent momentarily paused.
The humanoid illusion above Sun Wang's head shot out a beam of blood-red light, which struck the yellow giant seal. The seal's spiritual light flickered, dimmed, and it wobbled, appearing to have lost much of its power.
A miserable cry from a woman rang out. Sun Wang turned to see the young woman in the purple dress lying on the ground, with several horrific bloody holes in her chest, bleeding profusely. The Seven-Glow Sparrow hovered in mid-air.
Sun Wang was greatly alarmed as countless blood-red runes surged from his body; he was about to use an escape technique to flee. Just then, a thick golden lightning bolt shot over, easily dispelling the blood mist.
The humanoid illusion shot out a beam of blood-red light, but it was also shattered by the golden lightning bolt. The golden lightning then struck Sun Wang, who let out a shriek and was engulfed by the golden lightning.
The yellow giant seal's spiritual light surged, and it smashed downwards again. The humanoid illusion moved its arms, supporting the yellow giant seal.
Accompanied by a series of sword hums, countless red sword energies shot over, striking the humanoid illusion one after another, producing muffled thuds. The humanoid illusion's body was riddled with wounds, but after a flash of blood-red light, all the wounds disappeared.
A thick golden lightning bolt and a thick crimson flame shot over successively, striking the humanoid illusion. The humanoid illusion was engulfed by the golden lightning and crimson fire, twisting incessantly.
A long red rainbow shot over, piercing through the humanoid illusion. The yellow giant seal took the opportunity to smash down, and a man's scream rang out as the ground shook violently.
A blood-red light flashed in the void a hundred miles away, and Sun Wang appeared, his eyes filled with terror. He had used a substitute treasure to escape a calamity; otherwise, he would have perished.
Long Qingfeng had connections with the Wang family, and this fact must be reported to True Monarch Blood Saber.
A clear sparrow's cry rang out, and a giant seven-colored peacock appeared overhead. It was the Seven-Glow Sparrow.
As soon as the Seven-Glow Sparrow appeared, it gently flapped its wings, releasing a burst of seven-colored light that enveloped Sun Wang.
Sun Wang felt his body tighten, unable to move, floating high in the sky like a giant target.
A giant fist, shimmering with yellow light, flashed over, striking his head. With a scream, Sun Wang's head exploded. A miniature Nascent Soul had barely left his body when it was enveloped by seven-colored spiritual light, unable to move.
Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao flew over. Wang Qingcheng grabbed the miniature Nascent Soul, performed soul-searching on it, and frowned deeply.
It was actually True Monarch Blood Saber who gave the order to apprehend Long Qingfeng.
He closed his fingers, crushing the miniature Nascent Soul, and Sun Wang perished.
He knew what True Monarch Blood Saber had done in the lower realms. Saving Long Qingfeng would surely offend the Blood Saber Sect, so he might as well go all the way: kill Sun Wang and the other person, for dead men tell no tales.
After collecting the valuables from Sun Wang's body, Sun Yuejiao burned his corpse.
Back in the small valley, Wang Ruyi was looking after Long Qingfeng.
Long Qingfeng took the Azure Marrow Pill, and his complexion improved slightly.
"Thank you," Long Qingfeng said. "This time, I owe you a favor."
Long Qingfeng's voice was weak.
"If it weren't for you, fellow cultivator, I wouldn't have survived last time," Wang Ruyi asked. "By the way, I still don't know your name."
"My surname is Long."
Long Qingfeng was unwilling to reveal his full name. One should always be wary of others; since the Nine Dragon Palace could enlist the Blood Saber Sect, they might also be able to enlist the Wang family.
"So it's Fellow Cultivator Long," Wang Ruyi suggested. "Your injuries are quite severe. Come to our Wang family stronghold to recuperate. No one will dare bother you there."
"No need," Long Qingfeng gently refused. "I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay long." His guard was very high.
At this moment, Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao also returned.
"True Monarch Blood Saber ordered your pursuit," Wang Qingcheng stated gravely. "They brought a Dragon-Fixing Disk, which is said to have some of your essence blood refined into it, allowing it to sense your location within a radius of ten million miles. In your current state, encountering anyone from the Blood Saber Sect means certain death. It would be better to recuperate at our Wang family for a while; it's not too late to leave once your injuries heal. Whatever grievances you have with the Blood Saber Sect are not our concern; you are Ruyi's lifesaver, and we will not hand you over to the Blood Saber Sect."
Sun Wang had limited information; he only knew that True Monarch Blood Saber had ordered that Long Qingfeng must be found. As for the reason, Sun Wang was unaware.
Long Qingfeng hesitated slightly, then agreed.
Sun Yuejiao collected the valuables from the Blood Saber Sect cultivators and burned their bodies.
Long Qingfeng changed his appearance and left with Wang Qingcheng and the other two.
At the Blood Saber Sect, the door of a secret chamber suddenly opened, and True Monarch Blood Saber walked out, his expression solemn.
A disciple had returned to report that Long Qingfeng had been found.
True Monarch Blood Saber walked into the courtyard. Just as he was about to inquire about the details, he frowned, took out a blood-red communication disk from his robes, injected a magical incantation into it, and a panicked male voice rang out: "Master, something terrible has happened! The life soul lamps of Junior Brother Sun and the other three have extinguished."
Hearing this, True Monarch Blood Saber's face darkened, and he couldn't help but curse: "Sun Wang, that fool! He can't even handle such a simple task."
Either Sun Wang followed too closely and was discovered by Long Qingfeng, or he was overconfident and attacked Long Qingfeng. Regardless, Sun Wang had perished, and the lead might be lost.
"Send more people to investigate the initial location; we must find this person," True Monarch Blood Saber ordered sternly. "Also, send people to Tianhai City to spread news of a seventh-tier Flood Dragon's appearance. Contact the Nine Dragon Palace and ask them to provide another Dragon-Fixing Disk; otherwise, we won't be able to find Long Qingfeng's whereabouts."
The sure thing had slipped away, leaving him furious.
"Yes, Master," Li Yihong's respectful voice came from the communication disk.
"Also," True Monarch Blood Saber added, remembering something, "ask the Nine Dragon Palace if Long Qingfeng has any acquaintances or friends on the Xuanling Continent. Even if his divine abilities are strong, my disciples are proficient in blood-cultivation techniques, and at least one of them should have been able to escape. Someone must have helped Long Qingfeng."
Four Void Refinement cultivators couldn't defeat Long Qingfeng, but at least one should have been able to escape. If all of them were killed, it's highly likely someone assisted. Following this lead, we might be able to find Long Qingfeng's whereabouts.
"Yes, Master."
True Monarch Blood Saber put away the communication disk and said with a cold face: "I want to see who dares to cross me."
