There were no signs of combat.
Li Xuan swept his gaze over the Xu family mansion. Xu Yan’s parents were in cultivation, and the guards, some on duty, others in cultivation, were all safe and sound.
“Is Xu Yan in the capital?”
Li Xuan furrowed his brows.
The capital was too far from Donghe County. Even if he rushed at full speed, by the time he got to the capital, the battle would have already ended, the winner and loser decided.
“Should 1 go to the capital?”
Li Xuan hesitated.
Xu Yan was his beloved disciple. With his current strength, the powerful enemy Xu Yan was fighting could be obliterated with a wave of his hand.
But the capital was so far away. If Xu Yan was defeated, even if he wanted to provide reinforcements, he wouldn’t make it in time.
“Your disciple, Xu Yan, made a breakthrough in the second layer of Descending Dragon Palm during an intense fight. You’ve achieved great success in the second layer of Descending Dragon Palm.”
The golden finger gave feedback again.
Li Xuan was taken aback, the second level of Descending Dragon Palm?
He was overjoyed, this disciple was not bad, he could actually elevate the level of Descending Dragon Palm. Since there was a second level, would there be a third, a fourth, a fifth…
The second level of Descending Dragon Palm possessed some dragon’s power and was able to stimulate an intent of “rage,” drastically increasing the power of the palm!
The force of the dragon-like palm of the Descending Dragon Palm had become denser and more dragon-like.
“Xu Yan is able to comprehend in the midst of intense battles, meaning he is not incapable of resisting the enemy. Now that he has comprehended the second layer of Descending Dragon Palm, he should not lose, right?”
Li Xuan pondered.
Is Xu Yan truly in the capital, or has he gone somewhere else?”
“Is his opponent a martial artist from this world, or a fierce beast like the Flame Mane Wolf?”
Li Xuan leaned towards the former.
“Has Emperor Qi found a martial artist? Or, did Xu Yan interfere with the mundane, which is why the people of the martial arts world are targeting Xu Yan?”
Li Xuan furrowed his brows in contemplation.
“With my current strength, where do 1 rank among the martial artists of the martial arts world?”
“What is the state of this world’s martial arts?”
Li Xuan looked down at the Xu family mansion and silently waited.
Up until now, there had been no movement from the Xu family mansion.
Which meant, news of a crisis had not reached the capital yet.
“Go back and ask Shi’er to use the information from the Maternal Sect to check the situation in the capital.”
Li Xuan made up his mind.
So, he turned and headed back to Yunshan County.
Blood Heartless flew towards Yunshan County, feeling more depleted. The hundred miles journey made him feel even more breathless.
But he dared not stop.
Xu Yan was chasing behind him. If he descended halfway and slowed down, it would be dangerous if he was caught up to.
His injuries were recurring.
“Damn it! I’ve come to the desolate border yet I’m still in such a terrible state!
No, it’s even worse than when I was in the Inner Domain.”
Blood Heartless was angry and frustrated, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light.
“Wait until I perform a blood sacrifice on a city, consume its essence and blood to recover my strength, 1 will take your life!”
Blood Heartless had a murderous thought in his mind.
A small city appeared in his sight.
“This city isn’t big, with only tens of thousands of people. A blood sacrifice should recover eight or nine tenths of my strength.”
Blood Heartless’ eyes shone with extreme blood thirst.
“In such a small town, there should be no powerful people.”
He was also a little confused. He met a team in the mountains on the way from the Inner Domain. One of them was the son of the Minister of War of Qi Country.
With his status, there must be a strong protector.
Why didn’t that team have a single martial artist?
And why, just after he came out of the mountains, did he encounter an incredibly strong guy? Was it a coincidence?
There are no martial artists in the border territory, was that one an exception?
Blood Heartless was somewhat confused.
But now was not the time to investigate, healing his injuries and recovering his strength was the priority.
He flew directly above Yunshan County.
His sharp senses instantly discovered that there were many people with vigorous vitality in the county town, and it was not inferior to those people he had absorbed in the mountains.
“What’s that place?”
Suddenly, Blood Heartless sensed a surge of vigorous vitality.
In this county, this vigor was much more robust than all the people in the county, giving him an intense cravings.
“A martial artist!
He was horrified at heart!
In such a small county, there was even a martial artist!
In the Border Wilderness, where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had vanished, a martial artist was not supposed to exist!
He concentrated and tried to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, but could not sense anything.
The Heavenly Earth Lingji had not been restored and was still in a state of obliteration.
“Why is there a martial artist?”
Xue Wu Xin thought of the young man who had fought him. His cultivation technique was extremely unique and different from the Inner Realm.
“Regardless, once I consume the blood and energy of this martial artist, I can recover.
“Once 1 regain my Grandmaster’s strength, I refuse to believe that there is anyone in this barren land that can rival a Grandmaster.”
A Grandmaster-level martial artist is among the top strongest in the Inner Domain.
It is absolutely impossible for a Grandmaster-level strongman to appear in this barren land.
“This martial artist is much weaker than me. It shouldn’t be difficult to handle.”
Xue Wu Xin was extremely eager.
With a single movement, he arrived above the small courtyard and found Meng Chong.
Looking at the bald, muscular Meng Chong with his shiny head, Xue Wu Xin’s eyes filled with greed and delight.
“Such abundant blood and energy. Although he is inferior to the youngster, consuming his essence blood will surely heal me, and my strength will return to its peak.
“After killing that youngster and consuming his essence blood, I will be closer to breaking through to Great Grandmaster level!”
The more Xue Wu Xin thought about it, the more excited he became.
Once he breaks through to the Great Grandmaster level, let alone in this barren land, he wouldn’t fear anyone even in the Inner Domain.
A Great Grandmaster represents the pinnacle of martial arts in the Inner Domain!
“Consume his essence blood!”
Not wanting to waste time, Xue Wu Xin immediately took action.
He remembered that Xu Yan was coming after him. He had to finish off the young man in front of him before Xu Yan arrived.
Once he had refined the young man’s essence blood and healed, he would show Xu Yan what the might of a Grandmaster is.
With a flick of his finger, a thread of blood siphoning thread shot out, aiming straight for the heart.
Meng Chong had achieved the perfect bronze bone in his cultivation.
His body had become more robust, and he was only one step away from the golden bone.
However, Meng Chong felt a bottleneck in making that step, momentarily unable to break through to the golden bone.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat!
A sense of danger!
Where did the danger come from?
Before Meng Chong could identify where the danger came from, something suddenly pierced his heart. An extremely cold aura wormed its way into his heart.
With the intrusion of this chill, his heartbeat violently increased, blood gushed out, and a storm seemed to surge through his body.
It was like a drop of water had fallen into a pot of oil.
As the blood storm swept through him, the bronze bone that had initially stopped moving forward, began to loosen under the violent impact of the blood.
“What is this?”
Meng Chong was shocked. What was this cold thread?
He followed the thread and saw Xue Wu Xin hovering in the air.
In this instant, Meng Chong felt a chill down his spine, and his heart tightened!
“An Innate Realm martial artist? Where did this Innate Realm martial artist come from? Isn’t the Qi Country devoid of martial artists?
“My older martial brother single-handedly crushed the Shenwei Army and trampled over the royal family of the Qi Country!”
This mysterious martial artist was clearly malicious!
That thread in his heart was a lethal attack. It was only because he was cultivating the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield, which had extremely strong defense, that it didn’t pierce his heart.
Did it only pierce his skin?
Meng Chong punched it out, breaking the thread instantly.
“Where’s my master?”
Meng Chong was sweating profusely.
He had not even entered the door yet, how could he possibly be the opponent of that guy in the sky?
Where was his master?
His master had left and not returned.
Had the other party taken advantage of his master’s absence to come and kill him?
“Could it be an assassin sent by the Emperor of Wu?”
At this moment, Meng Chong thought of the Emperor of Wu.
He was on Wu Country’s wanted list, with a reward of one hundred thousand taels of gold!
But Xue Wu Xin in mid-air was shocked.
The blood-siphoning thread he had just shot out, even if it wasn’t at full strength, could pierce through a rock!
But it couldn’t pierce the heart of the bald-headed boy below!
In fact, it only pricked a little bit of skin?
He felt that this barren land was strange and even somewhat frightening.
Just about anyone he met there was unusually strong.
This one, his body was impossibly sturdy!
“I have to fight and win quickly!”
Xue Wu Xin flicked his fingers consecutively, and two blood-siphoning threads shot out..
