"Ah … What in the world is that?"
Baiye Qinghong's body trembled in fear.
Conferred God Kings were invincible beneath the God Monarchs. It was for this reason that she had the right to forcefully take something from a God Monarch.
It was just that … who would have thought that the high-tier Celestial God before her would actually bring out such a powerful artifact?
It felt as if she was being suppressed by the heavens, or perhaps it was the power of a God Monarch. Even a Conferred God King would not be able to withstand it.
"Open!"
Knowing that the book in front of her would not give her much time to think, Baiye Qinghong roared furiously as she channeled all of her strength into her body. Ripples appeared in the air, and it felt as if the Anima of Yearning in the entire Sky of Linglong was being drawn over to fend off the attack.
In terms of strength, Conferred God Kings were not too different from ordinary God Kings. The reason why they were so powerful was because they were able to draw upon the Anima of Yearning of an entire region to form their will.
This power could be said to be invincible within a certain region.
However, no matter how invincible it was, it was still nothing before the heavens. With just a single strike, the barrier shattered.
"Pu!"
Blood spurted furiously from Baiye Qinghong's mouth as panic surfaced in her eyes.
She had thought that she would be able to withstand the attack, but now that she realized what was going on, there was a good chance that she would be squashed into a meat patty within a few breaths.
"Please spare my life. I was wrong. I saw the purity of the energy contained in the pill, and that's why I thought of taking it for my own! I have no idea what kind of pill it is or where it came from … "
Baiye Qinghong gritted her teeth furiously as she hurriedly explained the situation.
Of course, the latter was more important than her life.
"Conferred God King Baiye stole another person's pill?"
"I thought that she was really acting so righteously earlier, but who could have thought that she would actually do such a thing?"
"She's my goddess! Doing such a thing will only bring shame to the reputation of a Conferred God King!"
"A pill that can allow one to break through to the God King Realm. If it were you, what would you do?"
"I … might do the same thing as her …"
…
Wills flickered in the surroundings, all of them shaken.
Baiye Qinghong appeared right after the pill was caught. Coupled with her bold and confident manner, everyone who saw this scene thought that what she said was true. Never in his dreams would he have thought that it was actually a forceful robbery!
Just like that, the reputation of the Conferred God King, the goddess of countless people, was completely ruined.
Goddesses were also human. It was impossible for everything they did to be fragrant.
"I've given you a chance. It's too late to say all this now!" Zhang Xuan was indifferent.
He had already given the other party a chance earlier, but not only did he not know how to grasp it, he even went so far as to force his hand. Since that was the case, there was only one path left for him … death!
Ka-cha!
Along with the upgrade of the Library of Heaven's Path, the Book of Heaven's Path was able to remain in the outside world for an extended period of time. Zhang Xuan's will pressed down on Baiye Qinghong once more, and the bones in her body began to shatter. Fresh blood spurted from her shoulders and face, leaving a hideous look on her face.
No matter how powerful a Conferred God King was, they were still unable to surpass the heavens, so they were still helpless before the golden page.
"Please stay your hand …"
The air shook violently, and another pretty figure appeared out of nowhere.
It was the other Conferred God King of the Sky of Linglong, Shangguan Yunwan!
"Baiye Qinghong is a Conferred God King personally conferred by His Majesty. Killing her is no different from defying the authority of a God Monarch!"
Shangguan Yunwan said.
"Are you threatening me with the name of a God Monarch?" Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
They were both Conferred God Kings, so he did not believe that Baiye Qinghong had not noticed him stealing his medicinal herb. He did not believe that a God Monarch could not see through him!
Yet, she chose to remain silent and allow things to develop. What right did she have to make him back down now?
You must be joking!
"There's no need for me to threaten you. You should know that the authority of a God Monarch is not to be defied," Shangguan Yunwan said.
A God Monarch was the strongest expert in the world. Since she had conferred the title of a God King, it went without saying that she had her own reasons.
To kill a God King whom she had conferred the title of a God King was no different from challenging her authority.
"You're right, but it seems like Fairy Linglong isn't too good at conferring the title of a God Monarch. Since that's the case, I'll clean up the mess for her!"
Zhang Xuan could not be bothered with the other party, so he raised his hand and grabbed her.
"No!"
With a cry of agony, Baiye Qinghong was crushed into a meat patty. Her soul dissipated into nothingness, leaving nothing behind.
"This …" Shangguan Yunwan did not think that the young man would still kill Baiye Qinghong on the spot even after she had brought up the name of a God Monarch. She roared furiously, "How dare you …"
But before she could finish her words, the young man glared at her coldly and bellowed, "If you don't want to die, shut your mouth!"
Shangguan Yunwan's body trembled in anger, but she dared not utter a single word at all.
Baiye Qinghong was on par with her in terms of cultivation, but she had been killed in an instant. If she dared to say anything else, she would probably end up in the same state as Baiye Qinghong.
The God Kings and experts who had been watching the commotion earlier had fallen completely silent. Their bodies were trembling uncontrollably.
That was a Conferred God King! Other than the God Monarchs, there was no one in the world who could defeat him! Yet, in the blink of an eye, one of them had been killed, and the other one had been reprimanded in public.
Where in the world did this fellow come from?
Fu Jiangchen was trembling uncontrollably.
He had always thought highly of the young man before him, thinking that he would achieve great things in the future. Who could have thought that the young man would be able to kill a Conferred God King in the blink of an eye?
It was fortunate that he did not have any ulterior motives when he was forging the pill, or else he would have been the one to be reduced to a corpse.
"He seems to be … Zhang Xuan!"
"Zhang Xuan? The person who sold the Breakthrough Pill in the Sky of Drifting Specter, Zhang Xuan? "
"That's right. I happened to meet him in the Sky of Drifting Specter on the day he sold the Breakthrough Pill, so I remember him very clearly."
"Given how he's able to forge incredible pills like the Breakthrough Pill and Beauty Pill, it's no wonder that he's able to forge the pill before us."
"Indeed. To be able to kill a Conferred God King in a single move, could he have a God Monarch backing him as well? May I know who it is? "
…
Someone recognized the young man.
Zhang Xuan had caused such a huge ruckus in the Sky of Drifting Specter that his name had spread all the way here.
After berating Shangguan Yunwan for her nonsense, Zhang Xuan could not be bothered to waste his breath anymore. He flicked his finger, and the pill which he had trapped with his sword qi immediately flew into his palm. Just as he was about to put it back into the jade box, he suddenly felt a dangerous aura approaching him.
The quiet space in the surroundings began to boil. The Origin Energy in the entire Linglong Imperial City gathered at the center in the blink of an eye. A powerful pressure that made people despair appeared out of nowhere.
"Is the God Monarch going to make a move?"
Zhang Xuan clenched his fists tightly as he narrowed his eyes.
