God Emperor

Chapter 2339 The Murderer

“You and Lord Xia Yu are too bold. How dare you go to the Ghost Clan’s home planet? If you fail, the favorable situation of the Bloodysky Clan will be ruined.”

Gu Chenzi shook his head as he spoke.

He was a person who sought stability. He didn’t agree with Zhang Ruochen’s reckless behavior. It seemed that he had a great battle record, but it was dangerous. He could very well lose everything if he was careless.

Zhang Ruochen stood under some blood bamboo with his hands behind his back and replied. “If we don’t take risks, how will the Immortal Vampires have a chance to be number one? If we want more, we have to take greater risks.”

Gu Chenzi said, “But some of those in the Immortal Vampires don’t have such an ambition. Instead, they’re jealous of everything the Bloodysky Clan has and those people are looking to bring us down.”

“There are such people everywhere. They act timid and weak in front of outsiders, but they are ruthless when dealing with their people.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes showed a hint of mockery. He let out a long breath and asked, “Who was the one that attacked the Bloodysky Continent last night?”.

Gu Chenzi’s sleeves swelled up as if they were filled with wind.

He waved his arm, and seven balls of bloody light flew out of his sleeves.

Each ball of bloody light had a figure accompanying it.

A total of seven creatures were bound and suppressed by the blood-red threads. They knelt on the ground. There were two Supreme Saints from the Neverwilt Realm and five Saint Kings.

“Why are there seven Celestial Captives on our planet?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Gu Chenzi said, “They are not Celestial Captives, but instead Blood Captives refined from Celestial Captives.”

Zhang Ruochen looked carefully again. Sure enough, the seven creatures’ eyes were blood-red. Blood inscriptions floated on their skin. Their faces were ferocious but their intellects were weak.

“Have you found out the one who refined them into Blood Captives?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Gu Chenzi shook his head lightly. “I can’t. The memories of the seven Blood Captives have been wiped clean, and their Blood Qi has been purified by special methods. However, that person must be a Supreme Saint at the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm.”

“How can you be so sure?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Last night, I fought with him amongst the waves. He wasn’t injured and retreated quickly. In an instant, he had disappeared without a trace. Apart from a Supreme Saint at the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, who else could do it?”

“Interesting.”

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and released his spiritual power, spreading it across the entire clan planet.

With his current spiritual power at level 65 and the perception from the Heart of Truth, there were few cultivators from the clan that could escape his detection.

“There are only two Supreme Saints at the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm on the clan planet, namely Lady Wind and Yue Tinghai,” Zhang Ruochen said. Gu Chenzi thought for a moment, “It shouldn’t be Lady Wind,” he replied. “She’s much stronger than me and if she attacked last night, there’s no reason for her to run away immediately if she missed. Besides, she still needs our strength to take the position of Scioness. She can’t offend the Bloodysky Clan at this time.”

“Won’t we know the result if we just call her here to ask some questions?”

In the Infernal Court, Zhang Ruochen didn’t trust anyone easily. He only believed in the truth that he had discovered himself.

Gu Chenzi said, “Lady Wind’s identity is special. I’ll invite her myself.”

“There’s no need. She’s already here!” Zhang Ruochen waved his hand.

Xue Ningxiao walked in quickly. She glanced over at Zhang Ruochen and Gu Chenzi in the courtyard and said, “Cousin, Lady Wind has arrived and she wants to see you.”

“Invite her over!” Zhang Ruochen replied.

This courtyard was originally an ordinary place. However, because Gu Chenzi, who was a Supreme Saint, had cultivated here for several days, a holy blood spring was gushing out from the soil. Spiritual medicines grew along with blood bamboos, it had been turned into a misty patch of holy land.

The place where a Supreme Saint lived would be affected by the Precepts. It would evolve and transform and would merge with heaven and earth, connecting with all spirits. Naturally, this was extraordinary.

Lady Wind was extremely talented and powerful. Divine light flowed throughout her body, and her skin was as hard and supple. She wore a mask made from golden threads, making her exquisite face faintly visible. It made her even more beautiful and mysterious.

After entering the courtyard, Lady Wind’s razor-sharp eyes looked at Zhang Ruochen carefully. Her red lips curled and she said, “Congratulations, Supreme Saint Ruochen, Your cultivation has improved greatly and you destroyed the Ghost Clan’s home planet, even killing Xu, and injuring the Pink Skull. You single-handedly suppressed the Ghost Clan and raised the glory of you Immortal Vampires.”

“It’s a pity that I didn’t get the news in advance. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have missed this battle.”

Then, she sighed softly, “Supreme Saint Ruochen, why don’t you treat me as one of your own. Next time, you must let me know if there is such a big operation, I’m not afraid of trouble. Fighting for the Immortal Vampires is the duty of every cultivator from it.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “There are no elites in the three middle clans, so it’s not a difficult bone to swallow. The Bloodysky Clan can swallow it without problem.”

Lady Wind’s beautiful eyes turned to look at Gu Chenzi and she said, “The Bloodysky Clan is indeed full of talented individuals in hiding. Who would have thought that Mr. Gu Chenzi has also reached the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm?”

Gu Chenzi knew very well that Lady Wind’s identity was special. Furthermore, Supreme Saint Yanhong had already been defeated, and Pan Ruo’s supporter, Wu Jiang, had also been seriously injured. The position of Scioness was tilting towards her favor. As such a person, Zhang Ruochen could be arrogant and disrespectful towards her, but he didn’t.

Gu Chenzi cupped his hands and smiled in return as a compliment. “Last night, I sensed that powerful aura too. But he retreated too quickly and disappeared. I couldn’t find any trace of him also.” Lady Wind said.

Zhang Ruochen had his back to Lady Wind. His hands were clasped behind his back and he looked cold and arrogant. “It’s not impossible to find,” he said in a neutral tone.

“What can you do, Supreme Saint Ruochen?”. Lady Wind looked towards his back.

Zhang Ruochen said, “I heard that if you practice the Path of Destiny to a certain level, you can recover the erased memories of cultivators. As a candidate for the Scioness of the Fane of Destiny, Lady Wind must be very skilled in the Path of Destiny, right?”

Gu Chenzi praised him secretly in his heart. This was a brilliant move.

It could be a test for Lady Wind and also reveal the true culprit from last night.

Lady Wind looked at the seven figures suppressed in the seven clouds of blood mist and asked, “Are they the ones whose memories have been erased?”

Zhang Ruochen did not respond. He expressed his attitude through silence and created pressure on Lady Wind.

Gu Chenzi nodded to Lady Wind.

Lady Wind certainly understood that Zhang Ruochen was doubting her, so she had to prove her innocence no matter what. She could not lose Zhang Ruochen’s support. This was a crucial step for her to become a Scioness. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Lady Wind chose a Saint Kinghood Blood Captive and manifested the Precepts of Destiny. She mobilized the Path of Destiny and pointed a finger between his eyebrows.

The lower the realm, the easier it was for a cultivator to recover his memory.

After a long while, Lady Wind withdrew her finger. A troubled and complicated look in her eyes under the golden mask could be seen, “His memory has been restored,” announced Lady Wind.

“Who is it?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Lady Wind was silent for a while, then she uttered, “Yue Tinghai.” Zhang Ruochen said, “Gu Chenzi, kill them.” Confusion could be seen briefly in Gu Chenzi’s. How could Zhang Ruochen believe Lady Wind’s words so easily? Could it be that he did not want to investigate it himself?

Weren’t they still suspicious just now?

Zhang Ruochen had his own judgment. When he should doubt, he would doubt. And if he should trust, he would be decisive.

He turned around and walked toward Lady Wind. His nose picked up an elegant fragrance, and the coldness on his face thawed. A smile appeared on his face, “Congratulations, Lady Wind,” he said. “You’ve successfully fused with and used Grade Three Saintwill. It seems that the position of Scioness is already in your hands.”

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t surprised that Lady Wind could fuse with the Grade Three Saintwill.

With the help of the Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill, if she couldn’t even fuse with the Grade Three Saintwill, she probably wouldn’t even need the Celestial-Hunting Battle to prove it. She would be instantly kicked out of the list of candidates for the Scioness.

Lady Wind’s previous strength was not much weaker than Lord Xia Yu and Lord Bladehell. Now that she had improved, she might be able to replace Xu and rank seventh on the list of Great Perfections at the Hundred-Shackle Realm. ????????ｎ????????????????. ᴄ????????

Lady Wind faced Zhang Ruochen, and she smiled. “Compared to the Grade Two Saintwill of the Supreme Saint Ruochen, my achievements are nothing. If I want to take the position of Scioness, I still need the support of the Supreme Saint Ruochen.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Supreme Saint Yanhong is seriously injured. I’m afraid it will be difficult for her to recover her battle strength during the Celestial-Hunting Battle. As for Pan Ruo, she is too weak. Her biggest reliance is on Wu Jiang and the cultivators of the three upper clans. Unfortunately, Wu Jiang was severely injured by me. It will be difficult for her to do anything for a short period of time. As for the Supreme Saints at the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm from the three upper clans, they have also suffered heavy losses. Several of them have already been eliminated.”

Lady Wind was quite surprised and she asked. “You defeated Wu Jiang?”.

Lord Xia Yu had appeared unbeknownst to them in a corner of the courtyard and killed all seven blood slaves. She glared coldly at Gu Chenzi as if she was mocking him for not being firm enough.

She said, “Defeating Wu Jiang is nothing. Saint Lord Zuo Mu, the strongest among the Celestial Captives of the Thousand-Koan Realm, was even killed by us.”

Lady Wind knew that Zhang Ruochen was very strong and that the Bloodysky Clan was at its peak, but she had still underestimated Zhang Ruochen’s strength.

Defeating Wu Jiang was no small matter. Even gods would be shocked.

This meant that the Immortal Vampires had a top-tier elite.

Lady Wind quickly calmed down and asked, “In that case, doesn’t it mean that the Immortal Vampires already have the strength to compete with the Yanluo Clan?”

“That’s the purpose of gathering the cultivators from the ten great clans. This time, the Immortal Vampires would compete for first place, as it is also time for the cultivators from the Infernal Court to reacquaint themselves with us,” Lord Xia Yu said.

Lady Wind was very shrewd, but at this moment, an unprecedented ambition was stirred up, and her heartbeat slightly accelerated.

That’s right, compete for first place.

If the Immortal Vampires could win first place among the ten clans, her identity as a Scioness would only be expected, and no one would dare to question her.

Now, only the Asura and Yanluo Clan could pose a threat to the Immortal Vampires.

A cold light flashed through Lady Wind’s beautiful eyes, and she said “The ten clans must be unified. We can’t have any disloyalty. In this Celestial-Hunting Battle, all Immortal Vampires from mortals to gods will take pride in us.”

“What if Lord Bladehell and Yue Tinghai have different opinions?”.

Zhang Ruochen glanced sideways and asked tentatively.

Lady Wind said, “We’ve all decided. Even if they don’t agree, they have to endure it. The gods are watching. Whoever dares to ruin the plans of the Immortal Vampires will suffer after the Celestial-Hunting Battle.”
