While Zence Matten said that he had to become the emperor, a sincere light flashed in his eyes for the first time. The Third Prince’s methods of doing things were all vicious. If a man like him became the emperor, it would be hard for his brothers such as Zence Matten to live.
Zence Matten thought to himself, "These friends of mine... these important future subordinates of mine. That is right. Important subordinates!"
Zence Matten quickly corrected the thought that popped out in his mind and continued thinking, "These important future subordinates of mine will be in danger as well."
It was another full day on the road, and the sun was setting.
Standing in the territory of the Frontier, Qian Jin took a deep breath; this was truly the air that contained freedom. The spiritual suppression that these people were under in the last while was hard to describe.
Relieved smiles appeared on everyone’ face.
In the Demon Empire, all of them had to be careful. In the later stage, they even exposed their true identities. The feeling of competing with death weighed down on them more compared to rocks that weighed more than one ton.
The warhorses no longer dashed forward. Instead, they casually walked on the Frontier that looked beautiful in these young warriors’ eyes.
Sunset, Frontier, and the afterglow...
Everything seemed so peaceful and beautiful.
Duren Burg quietly chatted with Box Lily in his arms. Although Cech Flet didn’t talk to Eunala in his arms, their faces showed their love and sweetness.
Zence Matten lightly waved his folding fan and sighed, "It is about time for me to find a concubine. This scene is too eye-piercing, making me, a prince, jealous."
Without pressure, the group slowly continued forward. Without them noticing, they already traveled more than five kilometers on the Frontier. Right now, half of the sun had settled below the horizon, and everything seemed peaceful and comfortable.
Suddenly, Qian Jin’s eyebrows twitched. A figure appeared further away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTechnically, there were two figures, but only one of them attracted everyone’s attention.
"There is someone there?" Duren Burg raised his head and looked into the distance, and he vaguely saw two people on the horizon. However, only one figure attracted his attention.
Everyone put warrior power into their eyes and looked forward closer, and they saw some items beside them. Those items were straw mats, and they lightly flipped around when the wind blew. They emitted an indescribable tragic aura that signified people’s ends.
On the vast Frontier, there was no one around in other places, but two people appeared in their way. Especially that they looked familiar in these young warriors’ eyes.
Qian Jin’s pupils instant contracted, two chilly glints appeared in Duren Burg’s eyes, and the expressions on Cech Flet and Fanta Kunge’s faces changed drastically.
These two people were after them.
Under the dark sky, a gentle breeze blew by, but they all sensed a chill rushing up their spines and charging into the back of their heads.
Under the afterglow in the western sky, the most eye-catching figure stood there with his hands behind his back. As he looked up at the sky in pride, he looked indescribably confident and emitted an overbearing and impressive aura. It seemed like he was the real ruler of the Frontier under the star, and he could easily make others feel fearful toward him.
This man’s short hair lightly fluttered under the wind, and his overbearing face looked like the perfect art piece created by a sculpture master who invested his entire life into it. Anyone who glanced at his face would be scared and would want to look down and submit.
His tall nose looked like a sharp mountain, and his eyes emitted dominating lights. Even looking into his eyes, other people couldn’t grasp onto his internal emotions, but they would feel suppressed and wouldn’t dare to even have the thought of rebel.
"I have been waiting for you."
"Qian Zhanxuan."
Qian Jin jumped down from his horse and stared at the Leader of Qian Family who shouldn’t be here but suddenly appeared. Qian Zhanxuan, a top-tier elf-king bloodline warrior who achieved Heavenly Awakening.
Eunala and Box Lily’s eyes brightened up, and they thought, "In the rumors circulating on the territory of demons, this terrifying bloodline warrior Qian Zhanxuan eats ten demons every meal, and he never spat the bones of demon children after eating them. How come he’s here?"
Everyone got nervous. A heavy-weight, top-tier bloodline warrior like Qian Zhanxuan would rarely show himself in public. The fact that he suddenly appeared in a place like this was strange. They all knew that he wasn’t here to treat them to a nice meal after their outstanding performance in the Demon Empire.
Even though he knew that by almost coming so close to the territory of demons alone, the Demon Empire would send a countless number of demon warriors and mages to surround him and try to kill this. However, the Leader of Qian Family still appeared here with Qian Wutian. This alone showed many hidden messages. His domination and confidence made others knew that this situation was going to be very tricky.
This one of the most powerful bloodline warriors in the world looked at everyone with his hands behind his back, and his sharp eyes were like lightning, making others feel like the world brightened because of him. A sense of praise appeared in his cold grin, and he said casually, "Faking your identities as demons and sneaking into the Demon Empire to create the identity as Jiliu Feijing. This is very smart, using this method to raise Qian Jin’s status in the Zence Empire."
"Not bad, not bad." Qian Zhanxuan nodded and said, "Such a strategic move that changes the situation on a broad scale; I don’t think you guys can come up with it. It must be Snake Emperor Pam Honzi’s idea, right? I sure misjudged you that day. I didn’t expect you to have this level of abilities. Unfortunately..."
Qian Zhanxuan smiled and shook his head before saying, "The Snake Emperor’s plan sure is great, so this is a pity. You need to return to the Zence Empire alive for this plan to work."
"Qian Zhanxuan, why can’t we talk this out?" Zence Matten waved his folding fan and frowned as he said, "As long as Qian Jin returns to Qian Family..." action
"Wouldn’t that express the message? The message that I’m not that good at judging people as the leader? Besides..." Qian Zhanxuan sneered and said, "You should ask him. Will he return to Qian Family? Want me to offer him those conditions? Is that blatant mockery on me? Respectable Six Prince?"
"Today, except for the Sixth Prince, everyone else has to die." Qian Zhanxuan said as he glanced at Duren Burg, "Doesn’t the Snake Emperor value you? I will kill you along with Qian Jin. Want to unite the Blacksmith Union, Pharmacist Union, Mystic Pharmacist Union, and Runemaster Unions... Don’t you want to unit all these unions to rival me? I’m afraid that you don’t have the chance."
Qian Jin stared at Qian Zhanxuan and Qian Wutian as he murmured to others, "You guys, run toward the territory of demons."
Last time, Qian Jin didn’t only injure several bloodline warriors of Qian Family in front of their gate. He even killed several elf king bloodline warriors on different occasions. The conflict between him and Qian Family could only be resolved through fists.
"Want to escape? I came here personally just to stop that from happening. Sending a warrior who is only slightly more powerful than you guys will only stimulate your courage and give you guys a stepping stone. I, Qian Zhanxuan, won’t do something that dumb. Since I decided to kill you, I will do it myself."
As soon as Qian Zhanxuan said that, he slightly bent his knees and took a step forward. This step was even more magical than teleportation. The distance between Qian Zhanxuan and Qian Jin almost completely disappeared! Qian Zhanxuan was only about 100 meters away from Qian Jin right now.
Then, Qian Zhanxuan opened his palm and pressed down.
Qian Zhanxuan’s strike changed the surroundings and the air, which came as a surprise to no one.
It seemed like space was being distorted, and rumbling thunders echoed in the area.
Everyone felt like they were toads in the hands of hunters. As an invisible energy hand fell from the sky, everyone was targeted by 20 times the gravity, and their auras were blocked off.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe young warriors unleashed their power, and everyone except Qian Jin tried to move back a little to form a V-shaped battle formation. However, they suddenly felt like this formation that was supposed to be perfect for offense and defense felt empty and weak.
Also, everyone felt like more heavy matters were added onto their shoulders, their spines were about to crack, and their legs were bending.
[Kun] Fighting Technique of Qian Family was insanely powerful and looked so casual in the hands of Qian Zhanxuan, the Leader of Qian Family.
Qian Zhanxuan’s palm strike was impossible to dodge, and it landed, making the ground to shake. Grass in the area was turned into a green liquid under this pressure and flew into the air.
Duren Burg’s face was pale. Not only did sweat appear on his face, but it also seemed like sweat was oozing out of all his pores. He looked like he was just taken out of a swimming pool.
Teleportation! Duren Burg teleported the group five times consecutively. Since his soul realm was still in its infancy, on top of using a lot of warrior power, the excruciating headache made him unable to stand on his own. If it weren’t for Box Lily who was holding him, he would have collapsed onto the ground.
"Having a soul realm before becoming a saint?" Qian Zhanxuan murmured as he frowned. Then, his third eye on his forehead opened, and his elf king bloodline power was activated. His left foot forcefully stepped forward by half a step, and a giant elf king warrior soul filled the space. Even all the grass in the area bent and yielded.
Then, Qian Zhanxuan pointed at Duren Burg from a distance away, and the air before his finger exploded. As a visible streak of warrior power dashed toward Duren Burg’s forehead, Qian Zhanxuan said, "I can’t let you live."
[Kun] Fighting Technique!
Qian Jin’s scalp froze; he knew that Qian Zhanxuan was angry for real this time. Although this man didn’t need to activate his bloodline power to kill Duren Burg, he still activated his bloodline battle form and unleashed the terrifying power of his warrior soul by using [Kun] Fighting Technique at full force! This strike would apply more than 1,000 times the gravity onto Duren Burg.
If Duren Burg got hit, he would become finer than dust.
"Be..."
Qian Jin instantly unleashed his Destruction Soul Realm, and he quickly appeared before Duren Burg to block this strike. His right hand took out a half shield, and he used one of the Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes while casting two Ultra-Fake Souls.
Bam!
Before Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes could be completely used, that vicious strike already hit the half shield in Qian Jin’s hand.
At this moment, this half shield that was never damaged before in all of Qian Jin’s battles exploded into dust, rushing into Qian Jin’s hand with the remaining force of the [Kun] Fighting Technique.
Crack...
A series of bone-shattering noises sounded from Qian Jin’s hand, and it sounded from his shoulder in the next second. The powerful force didn’t stop after breaking Qian Jin’s entire arm. Instead, it knocked him hundreds of meters into the air.
Then, while blood gushed out of Qian Jin’s mouth, he landed on the grass about 100 meters away.
