Chapter 122: Chapter 80 Blood Spirit Awakening [Additional Chapter for Alliance Hierarch who eats fish without spitting out bones]

Meng Hejun sighed and said, "It should be just as you said."

"As for the black qi that appears when Fang Che strikes, which doesn’t appear with others... could it be because of resentment, anger?" Gao Qingyu asked uncertainly.

"It’s likely frustration because Fang Che’s actions are purely bullying, not a normal sparring. This leads to an utter lack of tolerance. After all, for such a trivial matter, to beat someone repeatedly like that is indeed a bit too much. As the saying goes, even a man of clay has a touch of human nature. Especially that kind of... that kind of creature that is muddled and yet unable to develop a complete consciousness..."

Meng Hejun looked at Fang Che with a dark line on her forehead.

How could this guy, who bullies people so unreasonably, make such a discovery?

She really didn’t know what to say.

"I’ll go get the map."

Gao Qingyu disappeared in a flash.

And in a breath’s time, he returned.

He now had a map in his hand.

He spread it out on the table and drew a circle with his finger, "This area."

Fang Che glanced at it and said, "Yes. But how large the specific area is, we still don’t know."

Gao Qingyu let out a long sigh, "This is a serious matter."

Huang Yifan’s face darkened as he said, "We should still be able to handle it in time, right?"

Gao Qingyu shook his head, "Just yesterday, news came that an Ancient Cultivator’s treasure trove had appeared in this region. Now... this area is in the midst of a bloody storm! Countless Jianghu people are fighting life or death battles for the treasures, and many more are heading there."

With a whoosh, Meng Hejun’s pretty face turned deathly pale, "The blood sacrifice has already begun?!"

"Yes, it has already started."

Gao Qingyu’s expression became extremely complex, "Before we learned about the Blood Spirit Ginseng today, even I thought there might really be a treasure trove there, but now it seems... it is not!"

"This is the Wei Wo Zheng Sect’s blood sacrifice!"

"The Blood Spirit Awakening!"

"From yesterday until now, I fear hundreds, if not thousands, of Jianghu Martial Artists have died there! And the number is only increasing! At this rate, it won’t be long before enough people have died."

Meng Hejun’s face was ashen as she immediately stood up, "I’m going to the Southeast Headquarters right away!"

"Huang Yifan, you go find the Ninth Lord!"

"Gao Qingyu, you control Wei Zihao!"

"Okay!"

Each person, decisive in the moment, made their resolution and hurried off, vanishing in the blink of an eye into the sky.

Gao Qingyu’s face was etched with worry as he muttered to himself, "I just hope it’s not too late."

He looked at Fang Che and said softly, "Fang Che, this time, you’ve made a significant contribution again!"

Fang Che didn’t respond; his mind was racing as he considered how he would explain this matter to the Yin Shen Palace.

What he had disrupted this time was no small matter.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mountain Master, can you exempt me from this matter? I can forgo the credit for this major contribution."

Gao Qingyu gazed at Fang Che with a profound look, smiled after a moment, and said, "There will be a top-secret file recording your deeds. There was never an intention to make it public."

Old Man Shen interjected from the side, "This kid can’t shoulder the blame for this. Once it’s exposed, even if his own father was on the Weapon List, he wouldn’t be able to save him!"

Gao Qingyu nodded and reassured Old Man Shen, "Rest easy! I’ve got it measured. No need to nag."

Old Man Shen puffed his beard and glared in return, shooting back, "So many years have passed, and this is the only one who brings me wine; don’t you get him killed!"

Gao Qingyu’s gaze momentarily dimmed, then he spoke calmly, "These years..."

"Save these sappy words."

Old Man Shen poured himself another bowl of wine, "I’m practically immortal now, what do I care to get angry about with you guys."

A bitter smile appeared on Gao Qingyu’s face.

Fang Che now set his mind at ease and started contemplating the matter at hand.

As soon as Meng Hejun mentioned the blood sacrifice and awakening, he understood.

"But there’s never been talk of any great being falling here, right?"

Fang Che murmured to himself.

Gao Qingyu glanced at him, somewhat surprised, "You know quite a lot, don’t you?"

Fang Che replied, "I’ve read many books."

Gao Qingyu didn’t dwell on the topic but sighed softly and said, "That piece of land has seen the fall of great beings."

"On this continent, every inch of soil has seen the fall of what ordinary people would call great beings."

"It’s just that no one is aware."

"How can any part of a continent, with its millions of years of history, not be soaked in blood?"

Gao Qingyu stood up, patted Fang Che on the shoulder, "I must return now; there’s nothing more for you here. Remember not to bully Wei Zihao anymore."

He greeted Old Man Shen with a nod and walked off with his hands behind his back.

His heart weighed down with heavy thoughts.

Once outside, Gao Qingyu stood in an open space, looked up at the sky, his gaze filled with deep melancholy.

If this matter couldn’t be stopped, the entire Baiyun State, perhaps even more than Baiyun State, would be stained with blood.

After a moment.

Wei Zihao was brought to a secret room.

Gao Qingyu looked at this student, his eyes filled only with resolve.

This Wei Zihao could not be kept around! If he remained, when the Demon’s Primordial Soul transferred over, it would undoubtedly be a calamity for the entire Baiyun State!

Tens of millions of people would die.

Even though he was unwilling to take life, Wei Zihao could not be spared.

Now was not the time for mercy.

Wei Zihao was somewhat frightened, his eyes darting around, "Mountain Master... what... what has happened?"

Gao Qingyu said soothingly, "It’s nothing, you’re just in some danger, so I specifically called you here to protect you for a few days."

"Thank you, Mountain Master."

"Mm, don’t worry, you can stay here for these few days," Gao Qingyu sighed, "There’s a lot of delicious things here, you can eat whenever you’re thirsty or hungry."

"Thank you, Mountain Master."

Gao Qingyu nodded, picked up a scroll, and began to read slowly as he sat in a chair.

After investigating Wei Zihao, he found that this student was not of upright character or conduct, certainly not the making of a gentleman. However, this was not a capital offense.

Yet he was involved in this fatal affair, leaving no choice but to kill him.

Gao Qingyu sighed inwardly.

But even if he did not kill him, Wei Zihao wouldn’t survive either. After the Demonic Primordial Soul took form, its first act would be to seize a new body and devour Wei Zihao’s soul, taking over his flesh.

At that time, Wei Zihao would still not survive.

Everything had been predestined since the moment Wei Zihao first discovered the Qi Zhi Blood Spirit Ginseng.

Fang Che had caused some trouble and given Wei Zihao the chance to escape this fate and shift it onto someone else.

But still, Wei Zihao used his own financial ability and spent a huge sum of money to seize back this death warrant.

It had to be said that this was a huge irony.

Watching Wei Zihao’s face, Gao Qingyu thought of what Fang Che had said and done, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of ’fate.’

’It’s just like the saying goes, if a man is determined to die, not even the heavens can stop him. Not to mention Fang Che!’

Gao Qingyu sighed inwardly.

...

At that moment,

The forest where Fang Che once hunted the Xueya Demon Wolf was now teeming with figures.

It had been chaotic for three days.

Experts from sects like Yixin Sect, Yemo Sect, and Heavenly God Sect, all masked, hid in secret places.

Jianghu people outside were searching everywhere for the ’Ancient Cultivator Cave Mansion,’ frequently breaking into fights with each other.

Groups fought amongst themselves.

Occasionally, someone would stumble upon a collapsed cave and then find something inside, proving that there were worthy treasures in this place.

And so, the search intensified.

As sudden pits appeared, many people would quickly gather around them, each wanting to keep the finds for themselves. Thus, before even seeing what was inside, they would start fighting.

Opportunity, oh opportunity!

These two words signified a chance to ascend to heaven in one step!

Who doesn’t want to reach for the heavens in one bound?

So, everyone used the deadliest of means, fighting with the utmost ferocity. In some cases, after powerful teams fought off their adversaries, they even turned on each other in a fatal internal struggle.

Very quickly, the situation became so chaotic it was hair-raising, living people felt endangered, but everyone was filled with hope and ambition.

This opportunity... who says it couldn’t be mine?

And in the shadows, countless experts from the Demon Sect launched surprise attacks.

Using all kinds of extreme techniques.

Every minute, every second, someone lost their life.

Blood flowed freely into the earth.

Those of low cultivation, once they entered this vast forest, had no chance of walking out alive!

Their fervent blood was all spilled here.

Farther away, on pathways in all directions, through the forests, countless Jianghu people rushed excitedly towards this bloody battleground as if attending a grand feast.

The frenzy on their faces, the thirst in their eyes, and the longing in their hearts all drove them towards madness.

People from Yin Shen Palace stood far away on a mountain top, even setting up a banquet to watch this great slaughter with somewhat lifted spirits.

Toasting each other, they watched the show.

"Why cause all this ruckus here? It’s really beyond me."

Hai Wuliang muttered, "This mission is a bit baffling."

Even the sect hierarchs were clueless about the true motive behind this massacre.

But as subordinates of Wei Wo Zheng Sect, they had grown accustomed to setting up traps and killing without cause; it was not surprising anymore.

Whatever the main sect arranged, they simply carried out with practiced ease.

"This is humanity! This is humanity! Hahaha..."

Holding a glass of wine, Yin Sect Leader showed a cold smile, eyed the far-off forest embroiled in slaughter, and said lightly, "For the slightest benefit, they are willing to fight to the death and then throw away their lives here."

"What’s the difference between them and a pack of wolves spotting flesh in the forest?"

"They are nothing but a bunch of sheep and dogs waiting for slaughter!"

Kou Yifang chuckled and took a sip of wine, "Yin Sect Leader speaks the truth. Every time I go to White Cloud State, I get the urge to slaughter a city! How joyful it would be to choke the life out of so many living beings, to wipe out an entire city in one go. It’s just a pity that we cannot do so yet."

"One day, we will be able to. Once the nation’s fortunes stabilize and begin to grow, we will naturally embark on conquests. By then... slaughtering cities will be nothing but routine."

Hai Wuliang said, "At this level of attraction, we won’t gather a million; should we arrange something about that ’cave mansion’?"
