The Tsar District.
A group of six people was carefully hiding in the wilderness where Direbeasts were rampaging.
Suddenly, a Great Lord ranked Ferocious Beast appeared in the six-man party's trap. Taking advantage of the moment the Great Lord ranked Ferocious Beast was trapped, the six players swarmed the Great Lord ranked Ferocious Beast, executing a variety of techniques. It did not take long for them to slay the Great Lord ranked Ferocious Beast.
After killing the Great Lord class Direbeast, the group of six stepped forward and dissected the Great Lord class Direbeast. They stripped the best parts of its flesh and stored them in containers on their bodies. After that, they quickly retreated to the defensive line of the Stronghold, which was more than a hundred kilometers away.
When the group safely retreated to the defensive line of the Stronghold, the group couldn't help but cheer.
"It went very smoothly this time. We killed a total of four Great Lord class Direbeasts and ten Hydra Lord class Direbeasts. The flesh and blood essence of these Direbeasts should be able to be sold for 10 million. The six of us can each get more than a million. With this money, we can relax for the rest of the journey."
Among the six, a tall man with Eastern European blood said with a smile.
Judging from the blood essence radiating from his body, his cultivation was close to the peak of a Lord class Direbeast. He was clearly the leader of this group of six.
"Yeah, Leader Makarov, you're the best. With more than a million in our hands, our three days of dangerous adventures in the wilderness were not in vain."
"Tsk tsk, those rich people really know how to live. Using flesh and blood essence to cultivate. No wonder they're all improving so quickly."
"Heh, what's the use of having a strong physique? Without experiencing blood and fire, they're still a bunch of weaklings. I can take on three of them without panting."
Several people in the group said casually.
Leader Makarov's gaze fell on his second-in-command, a woman who looked to be in her forties. "Blood Sun, do you still want to keep the flesh and blood essence for your own use?"
The woman called Blood Sun nodded silently and didn't say a word.
However, Makarov and the rest of the party were already used to her personality and laughed. "You're really working hard for your cultivation. Look at you, you can already solo a peak Lord-tier Direbeast, right? If it weren't for the fact that you're a woman and your physique isn't as good as a man's, I'm afraid that even I, the team leader, would be defeated by you. Speaking of which, why are you cultivating so hard? "
"…"
The woman remained silent and did not answer.
This woman seemed to be in her thirties. She had a delicate figure and was filled with a sense of flexibility and slenderness. However, it seemed that because she had been walking in the wilderness all year round, the wind and sun had caused her skin to be a little tanned, making her look much older than her actual age. What was particularly frightening was that on her face, which was mostly covered by her long hair, there were three extremely deep claw marks left behind by a powerful Vicious Beast.
This powerful Vicious Beast had almost torn her entire face apart. Even now that it had been healed, it was still ferocious.
In fact, it wasn't just her face that was scarred. Makarov and everyone in the party knew that Blood Sun's body was probably covered with such scars as well. In order to obtain more flesh and blood essence, in order to cultivate faster to a higher realm, she was really working too hard. Clearly, she had to pay a price for risking her life against a Vicious Beast.
"When are we setting off again?"
"This … We just came back from the wilderness and need to rest for a while. Do you want to rest as well?"
"I'm also working with the Direwolves. They'll enter the wilderness tomorrow and I'll go with them. This time, they plan to take four days."
"Four days, huh? Don't worry, we won't enter the wilderness during this time."
Makarov said.
The woman nodded and walked towards the temporary lodging she had set up in the fortress city not far away.
"Sister Blood Sun hasn't rested in the past three months, has she? Looks like she's going to enter the wilderness again? "
A man in the party who looked to be in his thirties said.
"The last time she rested was indeed three months ago. Because she was hit by a disaster-level Direbeast, she broke seventeen bones all over her body and almost died there. Because her injuries were too serious and she couldn't move, she had no choice but to lie in the hospital …"
In the party, another woman who was younger than Blood Sun, Diana, said in a deep voice.
"Alright, Blood Sun seems to have a lot of hatred on her. This hatred is the motivation to push her forward. However, it's not our place to interfere in this matter …"
Makarov said.
The others nodded inwardly.
Although they could be called a party and could be said to have gone through life and death together most of the time, this didn't mean that their friendship had reached the point where they were willing to throw their lives away for Blood Sun's personal grudge.
At this time, a member of the party looked at the video playing on the big screen in front of them and clicked his tongue in wonder. "This commercial is still playing? I remember that it was playing the last time I came back. Jiang Ningzhi? Find her and you'll be able to obtain a treasure that can extend your life by a hundred years. You'll also be able to enjoy endless glory and wealth … If only I could know where this woman is. As long as I get a reward from that big shot, I won't have to go to the wilderness and risk my life from now on. "
"You don't have to think too much about it. Currently, all the forces in the entire Federation are trying to find this person. However, almost a week has passed, and there's not even a shadow of that woman. According to my guess, this woman named Jiang Ningzhi most likely died in the turmoil at the beginning of the Vicious Beast Calamity. Otherwise, even if she's hiding at the ends of the earth, she should have seen these videos and taken the initiative to show herself. After all … the person looking for her is a man known as the Ultimate King! "
Another person in the party looked at the video playing in front of them, his eyes filled with envy.
"Ultimate King!"
Diana muttered. After a while, she said, "Do you guys think … there's really such a powerful person in this world? Can we martial artists really cultivate to such a level in the end? Can we treat apocalyptic-level Vicious Beasts like they're nothing? Fly physically, and fly at Mach 5? "
"It should be true. My friend has studied this video that has been playing these days. There's no trace of editing or editing … That man named Tsing Hui might really have this ability," Makarov said.
Just as Makarov spoke, the image on the big screen changed. It was no longer the scene of the strongest person in the Tsar District slaying the disaster-level Direbeasts, but the scene of Tsing Hui wantonly slaughtering the Direbeasts in the spatial passage on the southern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. Looking at the inhumanly powerful figure on the screen, even Makarov, an expert who could kill Lord-tier pinnacle Direbeasts, could not help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart, "The title of the strongest man on Earth is none other than him! This is an invincible existence that has already surpassed the limits of what the entire Earth can resist. If I had his ability, money, power, beauties … What can't I get? I wouldn't have to spend so much effort to find that average-looking woman named Jiang Ningzhi. "
"That Jiang Ningzhi is average-looking in our eyes, but in the Huaxia District, she can be considered a beauty. However, compared to Tsing Hui, who is the strongest man, she's not even a little bit better. She's not worthy of a powerful man like King Tsing Hui at all."
Diana curled her lips and said.
"Love, this is the power of love, understand?"
The younger man in the team corrected her.
Diana shrugged. "Anyway, I can't understand the thoughts of those people in the Huaxia District."
…
While the few people in the team were watching the video on the screen and chatting, the woman named Blood Sun had returned to her temporary residence.
As soon as she arrived at her temporary residence, an old man and an old woman quickly walked out.
"Miss …"
Looking at the woman who was obviously stained with blood, the old man with the old face showed a trace of grief. He immediately said to the old woman, "Damara, quickly, treat the miss."
"Ke Bo, don't worry, it's not too serious this time."
Blood Sun said calmly, looking no different from a normal person.
However, when the old woman went forward and lifted her sleeve, the first thing she saw was a bloody wound. For a moment, the sentimental old woman Damara looked as if she was about to cry.
"Auntie, don't be sad. It's just a small wound. With a little treatment, she'll recover soon."
"I'll go prepare the medical supplies …"
Damara said, quickly turning to the interior of the house.
"Miss …"
The old man looked at Blood Sun, his eyes filled with pain. After a while, he said hesitantly, "Miss, you should have seen the news over there. Let's … let's go back. Young Master Tsing Hui has returned, and in his strongest state. The Ye Family, Huang Family, and Qi Family have all received their retribution at Young Master Tsing Hui's hands. Now, we can go back to the Huaxia District … You don't have to enter the most dangerous battlefield and fight with Ferocious Beasts in order to obtain power to protect the Eastern Sun Sword Sect for revenge … Let's go home and meet Young Master Tsing Hui again …"
"Go back … Tsing Hui …"
Xue Yang muttered these two words.
Then, she seemed to unconsciously caress her own body …
She touched the crisscrossing wounds on her body, as well as the three claw marks on her face that had completely destroyed her beautiful face …
The moment her rough fingertips touched the wounds on her face, her entire body trembled violently. An uncontrollable fear and trepidation seemed to surge in her heart.
"No! I won't go back! I can't go back! I … I can't let him see me like this … "
Blood Sun's entire body trembled non-stop. She hurriedly let her pitch-black hair down, as if she wanted to completely cover her sinister and terrifying face.
"Young Sect Master!"
Old Gu Ke looked at her appearance and cried out in pain.
For revenge, to protect herself, and to destroy the Eastern Sun Sword Sect, the tragedy of leaving behind Tsing Hui to cover the retreat alone would not repeat itself. The Young Sect Master had been madly fighting with Ferocious Beasts all these years, using the flesh and blood essence of the Ferocious Beasts to obtain great power and continuously improve herself …
After more than ten years, her strength was already strong enough to fight head-on with a Lord level Ferocious Beast, but the price she had to pay …
After a while, Blood Sun seemed to have slightly controlled her faintly crumbling emotions and gradually calmed down.
She raised her head slightly, and her starry eyes looked through the gaps in her hair at the high-spirited figure on the distant street screen …
"Right now, he is the Greatest King returning in glory … the Peerless Martial Saint who is the focus of attention … the savior of Earth's civilization … and I …"
"Young Sect Master, I believe, I believe that Young Master Tsing Hui is definitely not such a person. He definitely won't go back on the promise he made back then …"
Gu Ke's face was filled with heartache as he tried to persuade her.
"It's useless … the promise … the promise of ten years … is already in the past …"
The woman, Xue Yang, lowered her head, allowing her hair to fall and cover her entire face, as if she could hide in the darkness again by doing so. "Actually … Qing Xu, he's destined to never become someone like us. Thirteen years ago, he was the star of the political world, the son of the mayor of a city. His future was limitless, while I'm just a nobody. I'm the daughter of the master of a tiny Dongyang Sword Sect. I can't even compare to the daughters of those listed companies … Just what part of me is worthy of him? Just what part of me can compare to his family …"
"Young Sect Master …"
Gu Ke opened his mouth, but for a moment, he was speechless.
"Forget, let him forget me. Let's just pretend that … Jiang Ningzhi never appeared in his life …"
