Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

An eleven-to-twelve-year-old teenager was standing behind Zhang Ruochen. Although he still looked very young, he was remarkably handsome with chiseled features, glowing with holy light.

At this moment, that teenage boy was dazed, as he couldn’t even pierce through Zhang Ruochen’s protection saint Qi with his full-strength strike as a saint.

Zhang Ruochen mobilized his saint Qi, and then, a powerful force gushed out and knocked the teenager hundreds of feet away.

Blackie and the Amazing Little Taoist both rushed into the dojo, and aside from them, there were also some maids and young talents from Guanghan Field coming after hearing the noise.

None of them dared make an attack.

Those two teenagers looked too similar to Zhang Ruochen. Nobody would believe that they weren’t related.

Zhang Ruochen took a look at that teenage boy in a python cape, and he found that he looked very similar to Chi Yao, yet his eyes and nose looked like Zhang Ruochen’s.

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t feel more complicated. He walked toward that girl as he wanted to know the reasons.

There was Five Elements Chaotic Qi flowing inside the girl’s body. She seemed to have Five Elements Chaotic Body. Her face looked almost exactly like Zhang Ruochen’s, and her skin was smooth and glittering. Her hair was waving in the air as she blinked her eyes, looking at Zhang Ruochen.

The teenage boy in the python cape yelled, “Sister, that Zhang Ruochen probably performed a transformation technique trying to deceive us. Get as far away from him as possible.”

That girl immediately drew back, holding the saint sword.

However, Zhang Ruochen walked right in front of her after two steps.

“What… What do you want to do?”

The girl was horrified. She immediately wielded her saint sword, triggering the sword intent of ultimate completion of Sword Four, slashing toward Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen pinched the edge of the saint sword and seized it. He then grabbed her arm and started to inspect her.

“Let my sister go, Zhang Ruochen! You bastard!”

The teenage boy in the python cape looked glum. He mobilized all his saint Qi, grabbed the sword handle, and stabbed toward Zhang Ruochen.

Howl!

A translucent dragon shadow gushed out of the saint sword.

Zhang Ruochen raised the other hand, grabbed the dragon shadow, and crushed it, capturing the teenager in the python cape.

“Five Elements Chaotic Body.”

“True God Body.”

Zhang Ruochen’s fingers couldn’t help shaking after inspecting their body constitution.

He tried to inspect their bloodline, yet it ended in failure.

Their bloodlines were covered by a powerful force, which changed all their cells. Zhang Ruochen wasn’t able to inspect that at all.

However, since that teenager had a True God Body, he was probably a deity.

Gods’ blood and comprehension would merge with their fetuses when they were carrying them, which was basically refining their body constitution and improving their potential.

Many deities had great cultivation and the best body constitution when they were just given birth to.

“Let me go, Zhang Ruochen! Suppress your cultivation and fight me at my level.” The teenage boy wearing a python cape refused to accept defeat. He stared at Zhang Ruochen with pride and rage.

Zhang Ruochen thought for a little while, let go of them, and said, “Okay! Answer some of my questions first if you want me to do that.”

“Why would we answer your questions?” asked the teenage girl.

Zhang Ruochen released a strange cold Qi and ferocious Qi, gushing toward the two of them.

All they could see was Zhang Ruochen now, who looked like an apocalyptic demonic God releasing thick blood Qi, giving them incredible pressure.

The teenage boy was very firm and wasn’t wavered by the ferocious forces. He sneered, “Okay. As long as you suppress your cultivation to my level and fight me.”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “What’s your and your sister’s name?”

“Chi Kunlun,” said the teenage boy in the python cape.

The girl in white said, “Chi Kongyue.”

“Kongyue…”

Zhang Ruochen mumbled the name as he clenched his fist and felt his heart ache.

To others, ‘Kongyue’ was nothing but a regular name, but to Zhang Ruochen, it had an extraordinary meaning.

To be exact, it was extraordinary to both Zhang Ruochen and Chi Yao.

Eight hundred years ago, on the night when Chi Yao killed Zhang Ruochen, they looked at the view of the entire capital city on Kongyue Mountain outside Sacred City.

There was snow falling in a city of lights.

Eight hundred years after that, Chi Yao turned into Huang Yanchen and met with Zhang Ruochen the first time in Sacred City. They went to Kongyue Mountain again, hugged there and saw the city in lights.

Zhang Ruochen understood a lot after hearing the name ‘Kongyue’.

“Why? Why? Ruthless like you, why would you name her Kongyue?” Zhang Ruochen forced a smile.

Chi Kunlun said with a cold voice, “What else do you want to ask, demon?”

“Demon?”

Zhang Ruochen sighed and said, “Who’s your father?”

Both Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue were indignant upon hearing that question.

Chi Kongyue calmed herself a bit and said, “Both of our parents were killed by you, demon.”

“You led the dregs from the previous empire to attack Sacred City and Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion and slaughtered our families. Countless were killed and many lost their families and homes. Our parents were killed by your subordinates.”

Wars always meant deaths, especially of the innocent.

And the hatred and revenge would go on and on.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Chi Yao told you about all this, didn’t she?”

Chi Kongyue couldn’t revere Chi Yao more and said, “My master is a God. What she said is certainly true. Besides, I’ve checked the information about that battle before, and it was indeed waged by you, dreg. Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion was buried in blood and corpses that night, and you’re responsible for it.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, “You are right. I did wage that battle, but do you know that Chi’s family also started a war against my family eight hundred years ago and slaughtered my family? Do you know how many people died during that war?”

Chi Kunlun sneered as he didn’t know how to respond. After all, he was only a young teenager.

On the contrary, Chi Kongyue was very shrewd. She said, “We only come for the real perpetrator. You waged a war and destroyed Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion in the past, so we’re here to retaliate against you instead of your subordinates. As for the hatred eight hundred years ago, you should’ve gone against my master and Emperor Qing instead of the innocent people in Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion, but you didn’t have the guts to do so because my master, her majesty, can kill you within the blink of an eye.”

Blackie burst out laughing and said, “Haha, makes sense, makes sense.”

Zhang Ruochen shot it a glare, after which Blackie stopped laughing and said, “You’re sharp, but what you said is very biased. There might be some innocent people who got killed in Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion, but most of them were murderers.

“You were indoctrinated by that empress or the seniors from the Chi family, but they never told you how those from Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion massacred the people from Sacred Central Empire and how many innocent people died because of them.

“And besides, after conquering Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion with the armies from Sacred Central Empire, Zhang Ruochen ordered them to let the weak, the elders and the kids go. He strictly forbade them from killing the innocent. You don’t know anything about Zhang Ruochen.’

Chi Kunlun sneered and said, “Doesn’t matter. What matters is that our parents died because of him.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “You’re literally being suicidal coming to retaliate against me given your cultivation. I’m curious. Who sent you here to kill me? Was it Chi Yao?”

“Do we really need someone to tell us to kill you?”

Chi Kunlun then said, “Zhang Ruochen, don’t think that your cultivation is that much of a big deal. Suppress your cultivation to my level and fight me, and I can kill you with one hand.”

Zhang Ruochen stared at him for a long time and said, “You said that one of us has to die?”

“The enmity between us is blood-related. Either you die or I do,” said Chi Kunlun.

Chi Kongyue wanted to talk Chi Kunlun out of this. She transmitted her voice, “Zhang Ruochen is extraordinary. Don’t be so impulsive, brother. We said it before that we’re here to test his power and get Grandpa Emperor Wen’s Saint Figure Rune.”

Chi Kunlun shook his head and said, “Don’t worry about me. I’m invincible among those at the same level.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded satisfactorily and said, “Good thing you’re confident, but I still need to ask you something. Have you been defeated before?”

“No.”

Chi Kunlun said, “Nobody at my age and my level can take three strikes from me, including those saint kings who have suppressed their cultivation.”

Zhang Ruochen then asked, “Let me ask you another question, can you handle being defeated?”

“I won’t be defeated,” said Chi Kunlun.

Zhang Ruochen stopped talking and suppressed his level to an upper-class saint. He said, “Fight me together. If you can handle ten moves from me, I won’t kill you two today.”

“Arrogant! There’s no need for my sister to do anything. I can suppress you with one hand. I won’t use my sword, and neither will you.”

Chi Kunlun couldn’t be more confident, and a vague emperor Qi came out of his body. He pinched his right hand into a palm print, and a deafening dragon sound rang in his body. And then, dragon scales emerged on his arm as he slapped toward Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t move at all. He nodded, as he was amazed. No wonder Chi Kunlun claimed that he was invincible among those at the same level.

Even Zhang Ruochen had to take this young boy seriously.

Boom!

Zhang Ruochen slapped forward, dissolving that huge palm force and hitting Chi Kunlun’s palm, shaking his entire body.

Chi Kunlun was shocked. He immediately formed another palm print, but he still couldn’t ward it off. He felt Zhang Ruochen’s force dashing toward him overwhelmingly, forcing him to step back.

“Palm technique requires the power from your entire body, not just your hands and your palms. Your understanding of palm technique is still very premature,” said Zhang Ruochen calmly.
