Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 90 90

?"I am deeply moved that the Gu family thought too highly of me by sending many people. but have you not learned from your actions yesterday?" Tenku said, and his face didn't change when he saw their appearance.

Tenku could feel that their cultivation base was at least in the Earth Origin realm, and one was in the Sky Origin realm. The Gu family had evaluated Tenku's strength based on his match today. They sent twenty armed cultivators to confirm that Tenku died tonight.

"Ooh, you already know our identities? As expected of Wang Haotian's disciples. But I don't think you can keep your composure in this situation. Was it because of the cultivator secretly protecting you?" One of them came forward and spoke. He was the group's leader, and his cultivation was the highest.

Tenku raised his eyebrows when he heard his words. At first, Tenku didn't understand the sentence, but he quickly understood it when he remembered what had happened last night at the hotel.

(Did they think another cultivator killed the two people they sent out last night? Did they think that old man would ask someone else to take care of me?)

Tenku sneered in her heart when she thought about it. He was very familiar with Wang Haotian's nature, and there was no way the old man would bother to protect him secretly since he knew his true strength.

Wang Haotian knew that not many people could defeat Tenku in Beijing if he used the power of his cultivator and Realizer.

"I don't understand what you mean. I've experienced the same ambush as this and with the same situation. But the people who did it back then were two boys and are now dead. You guys are far more skilled than them for using barrier arrays and writing me a letter from Huang Yuxin." Tenku replied calmly.

When Tenku read the letter he found in front of his room sent by Huang Yuxin, he immediately became suspicious. If she had business with him, she would contact him through Wang Ruyue because she was a shy girl and had difficulty socializing with others.

Huang Yuxin wouldn't ask him to meet alone outside, much less away from the competition area. That way, Tenku could confirm that the letter was a trap. He was once again amazed by the Gu family's efficiency in searching for information because they knew he had interacted with Huang Yuxin.

Tenku pretended not to know what that person was saying so they would continue to think that he was secretly being protected by a cultivator, making them lower their guard against him.

"Hoo... I didn't expect you to know about arrays. I heard you are a novice cultivator, but I don't think you are knowledgeable enough. You are right. This is a barrier array; you should know what it is used for. When the array was activated, people from the outside couldn't enter, and those confined inside could not escape.

Moreover, people outside this barrier could not see or hear anything happening inside. So your guardian cultivator won't be able to protect you. I don't know if you're stupid or brave for daring to come here even knowing it's a trap. But I assure you that no one will save you this time." The leader didn't mind explaining because he was sure that Tenku would die at their hands.

"So you blocked my escape route and ensured no one would come to save me. You guys also want to prevent the organizers of the martial arts competition from knowing about it. The Gu family seems eager to kill me. But before you kill me, can I ask you something?

I am an outsider who suddenly got involved in this matter, and it wouldn't be fair for me to die without knowing anything. I might become a wandering ghost and keep bothering you." Tenku's face changed, and his voice trembled. He looked frightened after realizing the situation.

The people of the Gu family were satisfied when they saw Tenku's reaction but then looked at each other after hearing what he said. His words did make sense. He was a Japanese who became Wang Haotian's disciple and suddenly became involved in the feud between the two families without knowing why. Tenku might become a wandering ghost after he dies.

"So, what do you want to know? I will answer it depending on your question. But I will kill you slowly and painfully if you dare to play tricks with me." The leader threatened and released his killing intent.

"Before I die by your hands, I just want to know what you want from the Wang family that you want to kill me too, an ignorant person." Tenku looked at the leader and asked.

"The Gu family wanted to devour the Wang family and become the number one martial arts family in China. Apart from that, we also intend to take the four scriptures of the Sovereign Cultivation Set from them." The leader answered casually.

Even though he was a cultivator in the Sky Origin realm, he didn't want to risk being haunted by ghosts all his life. After all, he was sure that Tenku would die at his hands tonight. So it didn't matter if he told it to the corpse. Of course, he wouldn't reveal everything.

Tenku frowned when he heard the reason the Gu family wanted to devour the Wang family.

(Shouldn't they be able to get the Sovereign Cultivation Set from Wang Minghao? Do they want the original book? If that was true, then it must have been kept by the patriarch of the Wang family. But doesn't the Sovereign Cultivation Set only has three books? Then what is the fourth?)

Tenku was sure that Wang Haotian said there were only three practice books in the Sovereign Cultivation Set. He suddenly became curious after knowing that.

"Sovereign Cultivation Set? What's that?" Tenku tilted his head and pretended to be confused. He wanted to find out about it from the leader's mouth because what Wang Haotian and that person said was different.

"You don't know about it? It seems Wang Haotian didn't tell you everything even though you were his disciple. I feel sorry that your master doesn't trust you." The leader said scornfully and believed what Tenku said because his expression was so convincing.

"The Sovereign Cultivation Set is the main practice of the Wang family, and normally only core disciples and geniuses are allowed to learn it. I believe you have also trained one of them." The leader explained.

"I see. Can you tell me the four books of the Sovereign Cultivation Set?" Tenku asked another question.

"Enough for the Q&A since I don't have much time to chat with corpses." The leader said coldly, and the atmosphere around him changed.

"You are right. I don't have much time either." Tenku said and slightly lowered his head. The leader smiled when he saw that and thought that Tenku had given up on the situation and had no intention of fighting back.

"Kill him now!" The leader gave orders to the nineteen people behind him. They moved simultaneously and attacked Tenku with their weapons.

The nineteen cultivators wielded swords because it was the most efficient weapon for killing people. Some of them were using ordinary swords, and some were Phantasmal Objects.

When they attacked Tenku, the leader suddenly frowned because he had a bad feeling. He saw Tenku suddenly raise his head and smile. It sent a chill down his spine.

"Stop! Quickly get away from him!" The leader shouted on reflex to warn them, but his words were too late. Tenku manifested a scythe in his left hand and slashed them. They didn't even have time to scream after their bodies were cut in half because Tenku's movements were so fast. The leader widened his eyes in shock and felt that Tenku had tricked him.

"You are a Realizer, and your phase is not low! Who are you!?" The leader became wary of Tenku. He no longer treated Tenku as a boy but as a cultivator on par with him.

The leader was a little scared of him because the nineteen people that Tenku killed were in the great perfection realm of the Earth Origin realm, but Tenku finished them off in a single slash. It was terrifying for him, and he could never do that.

"You don't need to know about me." Tenku answered, but his figure was suddenly behind the leader and swung his scythe.

"So fast!" The leader trembled when he heard Tenku's voice. A dangerous alarm rang loudly in his head, and he quickly swung his sword backward.

Clank!

The leader managed to parry Tenku's scythe with his sword, but his hand went numb and was knocked back several meters.

"Heavy!" The leader gritted his teeth and released the power of the late stage of the Sky Origin realm from his body. He felt he had to use his full strength to fight Tenku if he didn't want to die.

"I want to fight a cultivator of the same realm as me to measure my strength without a Phantasmal Object." Tenku casually said and canceled the manifestation of Devouring Scythe. Then he took the sword of one of the people he had killed. Following that, the cultivation base at the late stage of the Sky Origin realm exploded from his body.

Booommmmmmmm!

The impact of his power created a shockwave and blew away everything around him.

"You... you... you're in the late stage of the Sky Origin realm!? Impossible!" The leader was shocked when he felt Tenku's power. A fifteen-year-old young cultivator at the late stage of the Origin realm could no longer be called a genius but a monster.

"No, I have to report this to the patriarch! The young master would lose miserably if he were to meet that boy in the match." The leader decided to retreat, but Tenku quickly closed the distance with him and suddenly appeared in front of him.

"What!?" The leader was surprised and slashed his sword at Tenku but was easily dodged. Tenku quickly counterattacked and cut off his arm.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" The leader screamed in pain and rolled on the ground. He was shocked because they were in the same realm but their fighting abilities were like heaven and earth. The leader had not expected that a fifteen-year-old boy could possess such terrifying combat power.

"Are all the cultivators in Beijing so weak? If all practitioners were like you, I could have a leapfrog battle with a half-step innate cultivator." Tenku hummed and stepped on the leader's leg.

Crack!

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" The leader roared after his leg was broken.

"So, can you continue your story about the Sovereign Cultivation Set?" Tenku looked at the leader and asked.

"I would never say anything to you." The leader said with eyes full of determination.

"Ooh... is that so?" Tenku smiled and stepped on the other foot.

Crack!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" The leader suddenly gritted his teeth, and his body suddenly stopped moving. Before losing his consciousness, he silently prayed for the safety of the Gu family because he felt that Tenku would be a disaster for them.

"Huh?" Tenku frowned when he saw that because he was sure he didn't kill him. Tenku quickly checked his condition, and he was shocked when he didn't feel the person's breathing and heartbeat.

"He committed suicide." Tenku sighed after he found out the leader was dead. He was disappointed that he couldn't extract more information from him.
