As the Universe Turns - Chapter 112
Chapter 112 Control Life And Death
“You … Sir, who are you?”
The three of them were so frightened that their entire bodies trembled like chaff. The color of blood on their faces quickly disappeared without a trace. Even if they weren’t sealed with their cultivation power at this moment, they didn’t dare to move when they saw those cold eyes at this moment.
“Liu Xuanyin’s next plan … What is it?”
Xiao Chen’s voice was low, and the three of them trembled with fear. Their faces were pale to the extreme. Not only could this person instantly restrain their hundred years of cultivation, he could even see through their identities and reveal their purpose in a single word. Just who exactly was this person …
“Forget it, there’s no need for you to speak.”
Xiao Chen took a step forward and raised his left hand. Three dark purple Genuine energy immediately appeared, piercing into the heads of the three people in an instant.
The three of them were even more pale. This was a method of forcefully probing the top layer of primordial spirit memories. The top layer of primordial spirit memories was the most recent one. No matter if the probing was successful or not, as long as they were forcefully probed into primordial spirit, their primordial spirit would suffer irreversible serious injuries!
A moment later, Xiao Chen slowly retracted his hand. Unfortunately, he only poked out the three of them to the Ancient Village in search of something and traces of the Devil Religion. He was unable to detect any deeper memories.
At this moment, the three of them were already frightened out of their wits. They didn’t dare to move at all. He was able to forcefully use the Origin Spirit Detection Technique on them. Could it be that this person had already reached the Void Refinement and Dao Harmonization Realm … Could it be that this person actually had more than 500 years of Dao Cultivation?
The man on the left’s face was covered in cold sweat, and he boldly asked in a trembling voice, “Pavilion … Your cultivation is beyond the reach of the three of us, but may I ask your … may I ask who you are, or … may I let the three of us know more about our deaths today …”
Xiao Chen didn’t say anything. He silently turned around and went forward. Seeing that he didn’t kill him, the three of them immediately felt as if they were granted amnesty. They couldn’t believe that the other party would let him go. In that short moment, it was even more terrifying than a trip to the Gate of Hell …
However, they didn’t see the three silver needles on Xiao Chen’s right hand.
“Whoosh!”
With a sound of wind, three silver needles instantly pierced into the space between their eyebrows. This time, the three of them didn’t even have time to let out a miserable scream before they turned into three dried corpses without a single drop of blood. With a “putong” sound, they fell back together, and even their primordial spirits dissipated in an instant.
The Ninety-Nine Blood Transformation Needle was a peerless assassination magic treasure. When the silver needle saw blood, as long as the needle was sufficient, the blood essence would dissipate from that person’s body in an instant. Even his primordial spirit would not be able to escape. Of course, the needle would also disappear. Using three such powerful magic treasures on these three people was a waste.
At this moment, Xiao Chen did not turn his head. He waved his sleeve and three streaks of azure true flames shot out, instantly burning the three dried corpses on the ground to ashes.
This was his first time killing someone.
…
At night, the moon was as bright as day. In the quiet village, every household had already earned their income. There was only a small room with candlelight. The sound of “Haw” came intermittently. A figure was reflected on the paper window. Wu Niang was still knitting clothes late at night, as usual.
“Ah Niang …”
Standing outside the courtyard, Xiao Chen could only watch from afar as countless white hair appeared on Ah Niang’s temples. He did not dare to make a sound, nor did he dare to enter, nor did he dare to bring any disaster to this quiet village …
It was a little late at night. Wu Niang stopped her work and got up to close the window. Xiao Chen quickly hid behind the tree shadow and waited for the candle in the room to go out. After a long time, he left with red eyes.
Where was he going next? If he wanted to find Wei Yang, he would go to the ends of the earth. He wanted to see people alive, but if he wanted to see corpses, he had to find them.
It took him another half a month to arrive at the Northern Domain. In the Misty Mountain Range of the past, he only knew that there was a Hundred Flowers Valley. Inside was a division of the Lianhua Palace, and he vaguely remembered the path. However, when he reached the outside of the Hundred Flowers Valley, he did not see the obstacles and the mist formations of the past.
When he arrived at the valley, it was even colder and bleaker. He remembered the last time he came, it was still late autumn, and the valley was filled with the fragrance of birds singing and flowers. But now, it was March, and the valley was filled with hundreds of flowers withered and bleak.
“How could this be …”
As if he had a bad premonition, he quickened his pace and followed his previous memories to the outside of Lianhua Palace. He saw that the white jade stairs had already been sliced apart by a sword from the middle. Even the plaza and the palaces above seemed to have been sliced apart by this sword.
There were ruins everywhere, and there was no longer the grandeur of the past. There was not a single intact place. He seemed to be able to see the sky filled with sword qi slashing down that day, turning this place into ruins.
Actually, he had already expected that once something happened to Wei Yang, how could those righteous sects let go of Lianhua Palace here?
“The righteous path of a famous sect …”
Right now, he feels that these words are even more ridiculous. If he is not a member of my race, his heart will definitely be different. He will eliminate the roots and leave no future troubles behind. This is the so-called righteous path of a famous sect …
So what if the Xuanqing Sect did?
Even today, he still remembered what Tian Mei had said to him, “We are different in the Righteous Dao. We need to cultivate not only to cross people, but also to cross ourselves …”
Master has always said that the lives of all the people in our generation should be at the forefront, and the lives of all the people in the world should be at the forefront. However, is this the life of all the people in the world that Master wants to protect?
If it was this world, if it was this mortal being, there would be no other way to save it!
At this moment, in his mind, he couldn’t help but recall the day when everyone wanted to kill her, so what had she done wrong? She had never killed a single person, she had never suffered this life, but why was this life … unable to tolerate her!
The so-called’mortal life ‘, could it be that I would rather bear the burden of the people of the world than teach them to bear the burden of the people of the world?
“The Righteous Dao of the World is just a bunch of hypocrites.”
Unknowingly, his heart demon was already extremely heavy. Looking at the devastation on the ground, he took a deep breath and continued to walk forward, wanting to see if there were any clues left behind by the people of Lianhua Palace in the end.
When he arrived at a collapsed palace, the sound of a stone falling to the ground suddenly resounded from behind. Xiao Chen’s expression immediately froze, and three silver needles instantly appeared between his fingers.
After a while, three roe-headed and rat-eyed people sneaked out of the room. They were holding a few broken jade porcelain in their hands, but they were three ordinary treasure thieves in Jianghu.
The three of them saw a black-robed man suddenly appear in the hall, and the cold aura on his body was so strong that they were all stunned and didn’t dare to move. After a while, the middle person took the courage and handed over the broken porcelain in his hand, “Here … Here you go. Don’t, don’t kill us.”
Xiao Chen put away the silver needles in his hand and ignored them. He went to the other side of the hall. Seeing that he didn’t kill him, the three of them were stunned for a moment. They hurriedly ran outside. However, at this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly turned his head and said, “Stop!”
