Chapter 799: Cunning Close to Demonic
Fierce punches erupted like a sudden violent wind, and a golden beam, like a meteor, instantly lit up the several hundred square meter warehouse as if it were daylight.
Suddenly, a piercing white light appeared, and the air burst forth, lifting the metal roof of the warehouse and sending it flying.
In the chaotic airflow, Ruan Jinshui was like a leaf in a storm, blown up and heavily smashed against an iron column.
Instantly, his spine shattered, and the immense force continued to surge into his body, forcefully expelling the poison mist he had cultivated out of his body.
“Come back, come back to me!” Ruan Jinshui howled with eyes wide in fury as he watched the poison mist continuously seep from his pores.
However, facing such a formidable force, his voice did not travel more than a meter before dissipating with the poison mist in the vast energy fluctuations.
Meanwhile, at the center of the blinding orb of light, Ada’s body was disintegrating inch by inch, his face displaying an incredulous expression as he stared blankly at the golden-glowing Xiao Shun.
“Why?”
Before dying, Ada uttered the last three words of his life, but he did not live to hear Xiao Shun’s answer.
Watching Ada disintegrate into nothingness, Xiao Shun’s gaze was extraordinarily calm.
From the moment he activated the “Fight Book,” he knew that his enemy was doomed, no matter how formidable the domain, it could not withstand his resolute punching force.
Confidence and invincibility were the two most frequent words in the sacred text.
After the surroundings returned to calm, Xiao Shun’s body also returned to normal, no longer shimmering with golden light like a reincarnated war god.
His aura was somewhat deflated, having used up most of his Ethereal Essence with that punch, even consuming a strand of the newly cultivated golden Essence Streams.
The golden Essence Streams, nurtured by cultivating the “Fight Book” after breaking through “Consolidation,” were a strand of primal energy, extremely tyrannical.
According to the sacred text, once a cultivator’s spiritual meridians and dantian were filled with this primal energy, they would be invincible!
Originally skeptical, Xiao Shun now had no doubts about the power of the Essence Streams after experiencing their effects firsthand.
Looking up at the bright moon overhead, his face was slightly pale, but his smile grew more pronounced.
The power of that punch, just the residual force alone, was enough to blow off the factory roof, truly fierce!
Turning his gaze away, Xiao Shun walked towards Ruan Jinshui, who lay on the ground like a dead dog, his expression remaining stern.
Ruan Jinshui’s spine had been shattered; he struggled to rise but found he couldn’t even control his fingers.
This was a symptom of severe central nervous damage.
In other words, Ruan Jinshui was now completely disabled.
Facing Xiao Shun this time, he had lost not only his cultivation but also a healthy body.
Standing beside Ruan Jinshui, Xiao Shun looked down and said indifferently, “They are all dead, now it’s your turn.”
Ruan Jinshui lay motionless, his face filled with intense fear, but this fear could not be conveyed below his head, a very strange sensation.
For many, living in such a state was worse than a quick death.
But Ruan Jinshui thought differently; death was the end of everything, while clinging to life, however meager, could prolong his existence.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Even if it was undignified to continue, he still wanted to try.
So, Ruan Jinshui said to Xiao Shun, “I can tell you a secret in exchange for my life!”
Xiao Shun shook his head, “I’m not interested in secrets right now; only by taking your life can I find any comfort.”
Hearing this, Ruan Jinshui’s heart clenched as the feeling of death approaching was too unbearable, so he chose to continue struggling.
“No, just listen to me, you will definitely be interested, I promise!”
Xiao Shun curled the corners of his mouth, coldly watching Ruan Jinshui who was still struggling to survive.
“Your promise means nothing to me, after all, you are nothing but a worm without a standing.”
Ruan Jinshui saw that Xiao Shun had no intention of engaging with him and shouted loudly.
“You came here to resolve the Xia family’s sorcery and thus seek the help of the Xia family and the Southeast Asian Sorcery Association, but I have a more effective method that would firmly bind these sorcerers to your chariot!”
“Although most of what you just said is wrong, your last sentence has piqued my interest. I’ll give you one minute!”
Xiao Shun slowly squatted down, a blue flame creeping between his fingers as he lit a cigarette.
This scene terrified Ruan Jinshui.
He had clearly seen how the assassin leader had died.
The feeling of being alive while your organs are burned inch by inch is something no one would dare to try easily, especially not a pampered second-generation like Ruan Jinshui!
“I can tell you the secret, but you must let me go!”
Ruan Jinshui stared at Xiao Shun, making his demand.
Xiao Shun smiled noncommittally, casually exhaling a cloud of smoke.
Seeing this, Ruan Jinshui’s expression froze, his voice trembling and tearful, “I can guarantee the truth of this secret, and once you know it, not just the Southeast Asian Sorcery Association, but sorcerers worldwide will be at your disposal!”
“Sorcerers worldwide?” Xiao Shun frowned.
Seeing a slight change in Xiao Shun’s expression, Ruan Jinshui was overjoyed and nodded quickly, “Yes, once you have that thing, they will definitely do everything in their power to trade with you!”
What exactly was this thing that could attract the sorcerers so much?
And why, knowing such a secret, did Ruan Jinshui not keep this treasure in his hands?
Xiao Shun was no fool, in fact, he was smarter than most.
Even though Ruan Jinshui had been vague, Xiao Shun could still analyze some critical issues with his agile mind.
With this thought, Xiao Shun looked at Ruan Jinshui, who was waiting for his response, and chuckled, “The secret you’re talking about must be somewhat related to the ‘Wild Gu People,’ right?”
Ruan Jinshui did not speak, knowing that the more he said now, the more this clever man would deduce.
In such a situation, remaining silent was undoubtedly the best course of action.
“Ha, not answering often represents an answer in itself!”
Xiao Shun chuckled lightly, then continued, “I believe what you said is true, but I also believe you are definitely up to no good!”
