Chapter 339: Chapter 214: Do you want to know the information recorded in the Soul Fragment? (1)

```

Letting Swordsman Ronald know that all he had done actually perfected Qin Chu’s plan would be the very thing that could plunge him into pain and despair.

There was nothing that could torment Ronald more than this.

The thought of having struggled for so long in the territory of Demons, enduring danger, and in the end, even being insulted by thousands of Demons, only for Lord Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment to fall into the hands of Qin Chu, benefiting this Devil, was unbearable.

Ronald felt a sharp pain in his chest, as blood continuously spurted from his mouth.

He extended a finger towards Qin Chu: "You... you... you..."

He wanted to curse Qin Chu, but he couldn’t utter a complete sentence.

"Right, speaking of which, this Soul Fragment is really useful. I used it to disguise myself as Jie Luo... and Asina was fooled, offering me her body."

"This Soul Fragment of yours, I will also make good use of it. Who do you think I should use it against?"

"Rose Vesper, Aili, Aileen, or Silf?"

Ronald’s body trembled violently: "You... you... you... you dare..."

"Ah, right, although I will kill you soon, I specifically instructed Luo Meng to give the impression that you are still alive, to release news that you have been detained."

"Do you think your other close comrades will come to rescue you..."

"I guess even if they do come to save you, it should be the sisters Aileen and Aili. Luo Meng has prepared meticulously. Do you think the two of them could be captured? And if they are caught, what do you think will happen?"

Ronald’s pupils were nearly bursting from their sockets.

He remembered his own experience, he, a man, couldn’t bear it; if it happened to Aileen and Aili, two girls, their fate would likely be hundreds of times more miserable than his.

The thought of having to kill other members of the Hero Team because of himself was like stabbing Ronald’s already battered heart once more.

"Ah, right, I also told Luo Meng to make your encounters in the Demon’s camp widely known, to ensure everyone is aware..."

Ronald’s body began to shake violently again, thinking of the Hero Team’s dark future, thinking that he would cause the death of Aileen and Aili because of himself, thinking of his own reputation being completely destroyed, becoming the laughingstock of everyone, thinking of Lord Jie Luo’s hopeless resurrection...

Struggling to lift an arm, he pointed at Qin Chu:

"Devil..."

"You are a Devil!"

The ghastly scream, like the agonized howl of a wild beast.

What kind of monster had Wise Mountain summoned this time?

Ronald suddenly trembled violently, feeling an increasing pain in his heart, as if something inside him had burst, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

Then, his body convulsed once, and his arm drooped down.

There was no more movement.

Qin Chu could feel that this man’s heartbeat, his breathing, had stopped.

Dead? Died of hemorrhage?

He was literally angered to death!

Satisfying!

But Ronald’s tolerance was too small, wasn’t it? Are you Wang Lang, to be so easily scolded to death by Zhuge Liang!

Can’t you learn from me? To be broad-minded, magnanimous, not to be so petty about everything.

Look at you, your narrow-mindedness ultimately led to your deserved death.

The night wind blew through, and Qin Chu felt a wave of satisfaction in his chest. Another enemy had been dealt with, and it felt pretty good.

A silver flame emerged in his palm and he tossed it onto Ronald’s body.

The still twitching corpse quickly caught fire, flesh turned to ash, and even the soul dissipated amidst wails.

The noble Swordsman Ronald’s last trace vanished from this world.

Qin Chu would not leave behind any clue that could be discovered by others. Although it would have been extremely satisfying to leave Ronald’s soul to witness everything he had been through among the Demons spread in the human world, to see his reputation in shambles, to watch his companions be deceived, lured, and killed one by one, leaving any residue would be troublesome.

Previously, he hadn’t spared Benson’s soul, and he certainly wouldn’t spare Ronald’s either.

Even Ronald’s storage ring was thrown into the silver flames by Qin Chu to be destroyed, of course, Qin Chu had already transferred the wealth in the storage ring beforehand.

After killing Ronald, Qin Chu’s chest was filled with exhilaration, but after reaching the peak of pleasure, what followed was a slight emptiness.

Is this what they call the time of wisdom?

Qin Chu mocked himself inwardly, retreating to sit against the trunk of a tree.

He took out Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment again. Compared to the one he had obtained at the home of the Storm Witch Violet, this fragment was actually a little larger.

Clear and bright, like a beautiful glass bead.

Qin Chu longed to gain some information he desired from this Soul Fragment, yet he was also somewhat concerned that it would be like the previous one.

After a brief hesitation, Qin Chu invaded the Soul Fragment with his consciousness.

Soon, Qin Chu sighed. Just as he had feared, there was nothing at all in this Soul Fragment, completely empty.

This made Qin Chu somewhat irritable. A blank Soul Fragment provided no useful information... Qin Chu even felt confused, such a blank Fragment devoid of any soul’s essence, could they really resurrect Jie Luo even if they were assembled?

Would it be a resurrection of a soulless puppet?

```

Was it about summoning a strand of consciousness from the Void, to form a so-called Lord Jie Luo?

I always felt that the mystery of the mysterious figure handing over the scroll, which recorded the Resurrection Technique, to Rose Vesper so she could resurrect Lord Jie Luo, was also filled with doubts.

Shaking his head, Qin Chu stood up again. He felt somewhat disappointed, but still, he tossed the Soul Fragment into his storage ring, thinking it might be useful later.

He was ready to return to camp.

"Do you want to know the information contained in the Soul Fragment?"

Suddenly, an ethereal voice, accompanied by the night wind, made its way into Qin Chu’s ears.

"Yes, it’s a pity that this Soul Fragment is empty," Qin Chu responded instinctively.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chu’s pupils shrank slightly, and in the next second, his facial expression swiftly changed into the most ordinary, most common smile.

He turned slightly and looked behind him.

Not far in the back, under the moonlight, a girl’s figure stood quietly on the ground.

No, not standing.

If you looked carefully, you would realise she was floating above the ground, her beautifully curved and rounded Jade Feet not touching the fallen leaves.

She had long hair of the same color as Qin Chu’s, fluttering behind her, and likewise, eyes as black as Qin Chu’s. A slender body dressed in a black lace dress, with slim legs and Jade Feet wrapped in black tights peeking out from beneath the dress hem.

This was a girl well suited to stockings.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, the thin fabric of the lace dress revealed the round contours of thighs tightly pressed together under the dress hem, with shapely calves that seemed full of elasticity.

Through the stretched gaps of the black stockings, one could vaguely appreciate the beautifully curved feet and their tender whiteness.

The whole person almost seemed to merge with the night itself.

In sharp contrast to the black of her attire were her cheeks, her neck, her chest, all of the skin that was exposed, which, against the backdrop of black and white, appeared even more snow-white.

She had a weird quality about her, one that would make people miss the actually very beautiful and lovely face when they first saw her.

How should I put it, there’s a kind of weird yet bewitching beauty.

Even Qin Chu himself had not noticed the existence of this mysterious girl if it hadn’t been for her taking the initiative to speak up.

Qin Chu did not sense a fatal threat, nor did he feel a strong hostility from this mysterious girl. If she had really wanted to make a move, a surprise attack would have likely been more effective.

Of course, even so, Qin Chu still maintained absolute vigilance.

He was filled with curiosity about the identity of this mysterious girl.

"Be careful, it’s the Daughter of Death..." Shaye’s voice came from his mind, revealing the girl’s identity.

In the presence of the Daughter of Death, Shaye behaved very obediently and did not emerge from Qin Chu’s body.

After all, the Daughter of Death was much more dangerous than the Storm Girl, and who knew what would happen if the Daughter of Death noticed her existence.

Shaye’s voice was also filled with irritation: "Damn it, what exactly does this detestable Witch want to do?"

Qin Chu could almost picture Shaye in the depths of his consciousness, puffing up her cheeks and stomping her feet in silent fury.

The Daughter of Death?

Was it the one who had purified tens of thousands of souls on the battlefield before?

While Qin Chu pondered in his heart, the Daughter of Death opposite him was not idle either. She seemed a bit annoyed, tilted her little head slightly, looked at the patch of ashes left behind after the silver flames had vanished, and puffed up her snow-white cheeks in a bit of sullenness:

"The soul has been burnt away rather thoroughly, hasn’t it?"

"I was originally aware there was a powerful soul, full of filth, waiting to be reaped here, but I didn’t expect you to have burned it to ashes."

"Is that so?" Qin Chu said, somewhat helplessly touching his nose, "Then I really am sorry."

The girl shook her head slightly.

Her black hair waved behind her, her eyes elongated and lifted at the corners, gazing at Qin Chu with large, gem-like eyes, full of innocence: "Sir, there is no need for you to apologize."

Her voice also sounded very... how should I put it, hollow, coldly enchanting... but also quite pleasant.

The Daughter of Death, with her slender fingers lifting the lace hem of her dress, curtsied to Qin Chu from a distance: "The ones who truly need to apologize are us."

"Please allow me, as the Acting Death God, to apologize to you on behalf of this world."

"I apologize, Mr Brave!"

"This world, filled with filth and pollution, does not deserve your gentleness."

Qin Chu’s pupils narrowed slightly, his eyes squinting into slits.

He noticed the self-referential title of the Daughter of Death, the Acting Death God?

I always felt that I was about to know some significant secrets.

Even though she was apologizing, the Daughter of Death maintained a distance from him. Qin Chu’s brows furrowed slightly, and he stepped forward, intending to close the gap to facilitate conversation.

Yet at the same moment Qin Chu moved forward, the Daughter of Death’s figure silently glided backwards.

This reaction left Qin Chu puzzled.

"I apologize, Mr. Brave, I know this is discourteous, but any life that comes close to me will die," the Daughter of Death explained somewhat sadly.

This reminded Qin Chu of a phrase.

Death is like the wind, always by my side!
