Chapter 104: 104 - three days "I-I’ll talk, I’ll talk! Please... stop!" Zhenwang screamed from the bottom of his lungs, his body covered in blood, his legs and arms turned into a bloody mess. Despite the horrible sight, Qingyi’s eyes didn’t even twitch, they were filled with coldness and murderous intent. "Go on." Qingyi spoke, throwing an inferior healing pill towards the man, who devoured it as if it were the best delicacy of his life. The dignity and pride of a king and expert of the Golden Core Realm were gone. The pain had erased all that. Catching his breath and calming his spiritual energy, Zhenwang sighed heavily, finally feeling some relief from the pain. Raising his vision, he faced Qingyi. "You’re right, my family has been hunting down all the priestesses who come to this place since the sealing of the lightning spirit... After that happened, our power was tied with the temple, but with the support of the nobility, we got the upper hand. They were driven into the forests while we kept control of the sealing site and the capital... We tried many times to conquer the sword, but it always ended up with all our experts being exterminated. The spirit of lightning was too strong. Around the same time, a group of my ancestors ended up venturing into the forbidden zone of the Heavenly Thunder Mountain. Out of ten Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, only one returned, carrying the control key to the sealing site." Qingyi felt Ruxue’s emotions tremble through their connection, but just kept listening. "After that, we decided to turn the sealing site into a secret realm and open it up with the hope that someday, some talent would emerge, creating various challenges and using the mountain’s thunder to keep our arrays active." "But then, you became afraid that this talent was a priestess of lightning and that they would use this power to rise again..." Qingyi murmured, understanding everything. "Yes... Over time without the spirit of lightning, the density of Qi on the island has dropped more and more. Our strongest expert used to be from the Rebirth realm, but soon we only had experts from the Nascent Soul realm and it wasn’t long before our strongest expert was only in the Golden Core realm. During all this time, despite an unwritten peace agreement, we killed everyone who dared to enter the secret realm. We never failed... not even once... at least not until that filthy bitch-" "Watch your tongue, you won’t be able to finish the story if I pull it out." Qingyi threatened Zhenwang swallowed his own words, his voice shaking. "You’ll let me live if I talk, won’t you?" "I’ll keep you alive, at least until we find her. She’ll decide what happens to you." "Ah..." A relieved sigh escaped Zhenwang’s lips. If it was that woman, he was sure there was still a chance. "It was about twenty years ago. We had four Gold Core Realm experts at the time. We surrounded her on the second floor and ambushed her. Yet that b-" Zhenwang paused, remembering Qingyi’s threats and rethinking his next words. "That woman was too strong, she killed one of our experts and even though she was seriously injured, she managed to push us back... So we decided to take her to the secret zone and find a way to bring her down there... Since we weren’t sure if she was alive or not, we preferred not to attack the temple and keep the girls alive so that we’d have something to threaten her with..." Qingyi didn’t reply, scratching his chin as he pondered. Honestly, he just wanted to get out of there, sink into a sea of breasts and go after his Feiyan. But what was he supposed to do? Take the sword to Yueli and say that he hadn’t even tried to go after his master? Hide the sword? Lie that he was sure her master was dead? Even if the chances were slim, even if it was only one chance in a million, he wouldn’t be a coward. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 He had been a coward long enough in his previous life on earth. "P-please let me go, I promise never to cause trouble for the temple again- no, I will personally hand over a dukedom to the temple!" Zhenwang’s words brought Qingyi out of his thoughts, the handsome young man’s eyes sweeping over the dying king. "Do you want to finish him off?" Qingyi asked Ruxue. She didn’t answer immediately, her body appearing in front of Qingyi. Her beautiful face bore a bitter expression as she took the sword from Qingyi’s hands. "Wait, you promised! You-" the king’s words were silenced as his head was thrown into the air. Ruxue watched the fallen body for a brief moment. "It wasn’t your fault, even if they hadn’t found the key, they would still have done the same thing." Qingyi said, approaching her and hugging her from behind. One of his hands rested on her lean, slender belly while the other gripped her breasts gently, his fingers sinking into the pale, soft skin, unable to come close to encapsulating their enormous size. Ruxue shuddered, touching the hand over her breasts, feeling Qingyi’s warm, protective touch. Something strange tortured her chest, a sensation she had never experienced before. After long, silent moments, they parted. Qingyi put the corpse in his spirit ring, to dispose of it when he had time, taking out only the space ring and keeping it. As Zhenwang was already dead, it wasn’t difficult to access the ring. "Worthy of a king!" Qingyi’s eyes lit up. That was a ring with a storage space of 100 cubic meters, which in itself was worth a fortune. The ring was also full of riches, mountains of gold and endless collections of pills and alchemy and forging materials. Unfortunately, the control key to the sealing site wasn’t there, but he didn’t think much of it. "Ruxue, what do you know about this forbidden zone?" He asked the spiritual beauty, whose beautiful amethyst eyes had already regained some of their calm. "It’s a hellhole where we used to seal powerful spirit beasts... In my day, there were even beasts of the rebirth realm there, but a lot of time has passed and the Qi density has dropped a lot. They must all be dead... I very much doubt that the strongest ones will make it past the Golden Core realm." Hearing those words, Qingyi made a decision. He would use every last pill in that treasure if he had to, but in three days, he would reach the Golden Core realm before going after the girls’ master. With his eyes shining, he opened the status screen, immediately clicking to improve his spiritual roots.
