Killing God - Chapter 204
Chapter 204 Origin
Shen Shi took a step back. He felt that there was a dazzling yet soft white light in front of him. It was a bit dazzling. In his life, he had never seen a woman so cool and alluring. He couldn’t help but feel his throat dry. However, he was still calm after all. After a while, he turned his gaze away and said coldly,
“You get up first.”
“Senior, don’t kill me. Spare my life,” the woman cried out in shock. She sat in front of him and choked with tears, “Senior, don’t kill me. Spare my life.”
Shen Shi frowned and said, “What did you call me?”
The woman secretly raised her eyes to look at him, but her sobs did not stop. She only cried over there, “Senior, we have eyes that do not recognize Mount Tai. We do not know that you are a senior at the Origin Condensation Realm, so …”
Shen Shi suddenly interrupted her and said, “How do you know that I am a Dao Cultivator at the Origin Condensation Realm?”
The woman was stunned for a moment and carefully said, “If … if you weren’t at the Origin Condensation Realm, how could your casting speed be so fast?”
Shen Shi fell silent. He did not say anything else. The woman in the middle sat on the ground nervously and did not dare to move. She was afraid that a slight carelessness would anger this young-looking young man, but he was ruthless and decisive in killing people. After a long while, he heard Shen Shi indifferently say, “What is the origin of this Hou Yuanwang and what is his relationship with the Hou Clan? Tell me about it.”
The woman cried like a pear blossom with rain, Her charm was pitiful, but there was another kind of charm. However, it seemed that Shen Shi did not seem to be as lustful as an ordinary man, and his heart was somewhat uncertain. Hearing Shen Shi’s question, the woman hesitated for a moment before speaking out one by one under his gaze.
It turned out that Hou Yuanwang was indeed a member of the Hou Clan. He was not a collateral descendant. His biological father was the current Hou Clan’s Clan Head, Hou Yongchang. Furthermore, in terms of seniority, he was also Hou Yongchang’s first son. This title of eldest young master came from this.
However, the Ling Xiao Sect included both inside and outside Floating Cloud City. One thing everyone in the various aristocratic families knew was that the title of the Hou Clan’s direct descendant eldest young master fell on Hou Yuanliang, whereas Hou Yuanwang was unknown. The reason for this was actually very simple. Hou Yuanwang was the illegitimate son of Hou Yongchang, who had been greedy for a while in the past and had given birth to an outsider woman.
Actually, things like this were not uncommon in aristocratic clans. There were many rich and powerful people with three wives and four concubines. When ordinary aristocratic clans encountered this kind of situation, even if they were raised as the eldest son of a concubine, they were still their own flesh and blood. However, things were different when it came to the Hou Clan, because Hou Yongchang’s subsequent marriage was a marriage alliance between aristocratic clans. The main wife he married was the daughter of the Sun Clan’s first wife. In other words, she was the daughter of Elder Sun Mingyang, who was currently in the limelight in Lingxiao Sect.
What kind of momentum was the Sun Clan possessing now? They had already suppressed all the vassal clans in the past few decades. Even if the Hou Clan was in front of the Sun Clan, they still had to avoid it by 30%. Hou Yongchang married the eldest young miss of the Sun Clan, who had an arrogant temperament. She refused to tolerate a grain of sand, and her mother’s family was also powerful. It was said that she was loved by Daoist Ming Yang and had always been spoiled. Therefore, not long after she married into the Hou Clan, she tidied up Hou Yongchang and did not dare to say anything else.
Shortly after her marriage, the eldest young miss of the Sun Family was pregnant again. She gave birth to a rare child smoothly along the way. This was the current Hou Yuanliang. This way, her status in the Hou Family was as stable as Mount Tai. No one dared to go against her in the Hou Family. Everyone knew that the master of the Hou Family was now the matriarch.
It was under such circumstances that Hou Yuanwang was kicked out of the Hou Clan’s mansion. There was a family that could not return, and his situation could be described as desolate. However, Hou Yongchang was finally filled with compassion. Although he feared his wife like a tiger, he secretly sent someone to take care of his other son. Moreover, due to the guilt in his heart, he had always been used to Hou Yuanwang. Apart from strictly forbidding him from doing anything that offended Miss Sun, he was too lazy to interfere.
Hou Yuanwang had grown up like this since he was young. He had no one to control him, and his temper had gradually deteriorated. When he reached adulthood, he had become a small bully in Floating Cloud City. He often went out to commit crimes under the name of the Hou Clan, and bullied men and women. However, he was still a bit thoughtful. He was bullying ordinary mortals or rogue cultivators with no roots. Thus, although his reputation had been disgraced by the streets over the years, relying on the Hou Clan’s prestige, no one could do anything to him.
As for this female cultivator, according to what she said, her name was Ling Chunni. She was an ordinary rogue cultivator who passed by Floating Cloud City recently. A few days ago, she was favored by this villain Hou Yuanwang. She was forced to use all sorts of methods and methods. She had no choice but to lie to him …
Shen Shi slightly shook his head when he heard about the Hou Clan’s matters in front of him. He was also too lazy to pay attention to the naughty discussions in the high clans of the vassal clans. However, when he heard Ling Chunni’s words about him, he was obviously not sincere. He immediately recognized the flaws. Shen Shi’s face tightened as he asked a few more questions. He even scared her, causing Ling Chunni to almost cry again. Finally, he had to admit that she was actually a native of Liuyun City. She grew up in Floating Cloud City because of a coincidence that she had obtained some inconspicuous inheritance techniques. She had barely managed to reach the middle stage of the Qi Refining Realm.
Rogue cultivators were not easy to follow, and Ling Chunni was no exception. Her parents had died so early that she simply did not have the ability to earn spirit crystals for herself to cultivate. Sometimes, it would even be difficult for her to support herself. Later, when she grew up, she realized that although she didn’t have anything, she still had a beautiful face and a figure that many men coveted. For this desire, many men were willing to give her spirit crystals.
She gradually got used to this kind of life. As for the relationship with Hou Yuanwang, it was true that Hou Yuanwang had coveted this beauty after meeting her by chance. Ling Chunni also took a fancy to Hou Yuanwang’s generosity. This man’s talent was average, but he could always get a lot of spirit crystals from his father to enjoy all day long and hook up with him in one go.
Shen Shi had heard the stories of these two people before and after, but both of them were annoying and disgusting. He frowned and said, “Then why are you all here at the Gale Cliff? That Hou Yuanwang is still so arrogant. If you don’t like him, then kill him.”
Ling Chunni shook his head and smiled bitterly, “He was the one who brought me here. Normally, my cultivation is too low and I don’t know any self-defense skills, so I never left Liuyun City. He saw that I was always hanging on to his appetite in the city and refused to … that’s why he brought me to this desolate mountain range. I’m afraid he wanted to …”
Before he could finish his sentence, Ling Chunni lowered his head and remained silent. However, Shen Shi understood what she meant. Ling Chunni thought that Hou Yuanwang was a fool with a lot of money. Normally, he would always have his appetite in Floating Cloud City and only wanted to get more spirit crystals from him. However, Hou Yuanwang did not seem to be a vegetarian either. He did not know what method he used to bring Ling Chunni out of the city to this Gale Cliff. He must have some bad intentions.
However, Shen Shi thought for a moment. This woman seemed to have guessed Hou Yuanwang’s thoughts, but she still followed him in the end. She was afraid that her thoughts were also half-hearted. She only wanted to stumble over Hou Yuanwang and obtain more spirit crystals.
This man and woman didn’t seem to be good people.
Shen Shi pondered here. On the other side, Ling Chunni was uneasy. Her cultivation was low, and she always relied on beauty to mingle with powerful cultivators. She was the most knowledgeable one. Seeing Shen Shi’s expression, she seemed to have some bad intentions. Her heart sank, and a mist immediately surged in her gentle eyes. She began to cry in front of Shen Shi in anticipation.
At this moment, Shen Shi was worried about Hou Yuanwang. Just now, it was this fellow who took the initiative to provoke Shi Luo to steal his own. Then, he brazenly plotted against Shi Luo. He was clearly an arrogant and domineering master. Shen Shi did not regret killing this person. It was nonsense. If he did not kill him, would he be killed by him? However, Hou Yuanwang’s surname was Hou after all, and there was also the father of the Hou Clan’s Clan Head. He was afraid that if word of this spread, he would be in a lot of trouble.
As Ling Chunni cried, she saw Shen Shi frowning and looking at Hou Yuanwang’s corpse. Her expression was hesitant, but her mind was quick. In a moment, she suddenly thought of something and stood up, saying, “Senior, if you let me go, I swear to heaven that I will never tell the second person what happened today!”
Shen Shi coldly looked at her. However, there was not much confidence in his eyes. Ling Chunni gritted his teeth. “I know that Senior is still worried, but Chun Niming said it. Even if I go back and report it to the Hou Clan, they will certainly come looking for trouble with you. However, on the one hand, I still don’t know your origin, so I can’t find you. On the other hand …” She smiled miserably. He said, “The Hou Clan’s aristocratic family is too embarrassing. After receiving the news, regardless of whether they can take revenge or not, they will probably kill me first, and then tie a rock and throw it into the sea.”
Shen Shi’s expression was slightly moved at this moment. Looking at this woman, he was slightly impressed. He did not expect that her cultivation was ordinary, and her vision was actually not bad. It seemed that although the situation of rogue cultivators was bleak, everyone had their own desire and thoughts to struggle for survival.
“Senior, please spare my life” She bowed down again, her delicate and pitiful clothes fluttering, revealing a vast expanse of white spring light. The valleys of the peaks and valleys made people daydream. Shen Shi hesitated for a moment. He finally felt that he was unable to do anything about it. As for whether it was because his conscience was unbearable or because he was really touched by this woman’s seductive face and hot figure, it was hard to say. However, Shen Shi himself felt that the former was better.
He didn’t want to stay here any longer. Turning around, he greeted Xiao Hei and left with large strides. Before leaving, he finally warned Ling Chunni, saying, “Remember your own words and take care of your own mouth.”
Seeing Shen Shi’s back slowly walk away, Ling Chunni’s body, which had been tense for a long time, slowly relaxed and let out a sigh of relief. She stood on the spot, staring blankly at the surroundings for a long time before suddenly landing on the corpse of Hou Yuanwang, who had fallen to the ground by the side.
Ling Chunni stared at the corpse for a long time. Suddenly, he rushed over without the slightest bit of concern for the delicate and delicate temperament he usually cared about. He kicked Hou Yuanwang’s head and said hatefully,
“Bastard, you think this place can take advantage of me? You deserve to die!”
