Chapter 1200: Chapter 518: So Very Slight, Do Not Seek, My Lord_2

Surrounded by a pack of wolves, she indeed shouldn’t stay outside any longer.

Especially since the last time she attempted to kill Grandmaster Hengshan, she had revealed the strength of an Earth-level Army Commander.

If that young man were to expose her, it would likely kick up a storm of blood and violence.

The body of Profound Yin at the late stage of Earth level was enough to drive Sky Level Soldier Commanders insane.

Shen Lingxuan left the great hall and returned to her own residence.

The tall and elegant Zhi Shuang came to greet her.

Shen Lingxuan asked with an icy voice, "Has my son-in-law not returned yet?"

"No," Zhi Shuang shook her head, her face filled with anger, "It’s outrageous, my son-in-law comes to Yesan Lake and doesn’t even see Miss once; now we’ve even lost track of him!"

"Has he not encountered any danger?" Shen Lingxuan asked, then shook her head again.

Before his death, Qi Shi left his son Qi Yuan with a parting gift; ordinary Soldier Commanders couldn’t hurt him.

"I’m now setting off for Skywood Mountain; pack your things and come with me," Shen Lingxuan said.

"Do we need to stop by home first?" Zhi Shuang asked.

Shen Lingxuan shook her head, "Let’s not, it’s just needless worry for mother and father."

...

Back at the Shen Family stronghold, Qi Yuan and Chen Kangbao returned leisurely.

This caused quite a stir.

But to Qi Yuan, it wasn’t a big deal.

He was now holding the Divine Wood Order in his hand, sipping tea and chatting.

"I heard that during these past few days at Yesan Lake in Ning Country, a strange event occurred.

Commandery Princess Yunxi, wielding a Special Magical Device Kitchen Knife, slew Luo Tong the Water Lord.

At the same time, an Elder of Thornblood, a Water Snake, also met his demise.

Brother Kitchen Knife, could this Magical Artifact Kitchen Knife be related to you?"

A member of Thornblood asked in a group chat.

Ji Wuyun was somewhat speechless upon seeing this.

"You can’t suspect that Brother Kitchen Knife is that Magic Artifact Kitchen Knife, right? Artifacts don’t have their own true consciousness; how could they chat with us?

Even if it did, that would be a Divine Artifact, and at best the intelligence of a Divine Artifact would be that of a six or seven-year-old child. Do you think Brother Kitchen Knife is a child?"

This time it was the Thornblood member’s turn to be speechless.

He had meant to imply that Brother Kitchen Knife was the Sky-level Artificer who forged the artifact Kitchen Knife.

"Speaking of which, shouldn’t your Thornblood compensate me? That Water Snake Elder disgusted me, I’m filing for emotional damages!" Qi Yuan said in the group chat.

"If Brother Kitchen Knife comes to Divine Wood Abyss, I’ll compensate you with one hundred thousand silver."

"You said it; don’t go back on your word!"

"Brother Kitchen Knife, don’t go! Surely Thornblood has laid a trap outside of Divine Wood Abyss!"

"Why would that be? I think the people of Thornblood seem quite nice, and they also have money," Qi Yuan said nonchalantly.

"Brother Kitchen Knife has sharp eyes; we of Thornblood truly harbor no malice toward others."

"No malice? Turning people into Strange Spirits isn’t harmful?"

"Strange Spirits are simply a different form of life’s existence.

Just like how you avoid us of Thornblood and disguise yourself as a man, doesn’t that count as changing your own form of existence?"

Ji Wuyun dared not speak any longer.

The Thornblood member continued.

"The lives of people are far too short, lasting barely a few hundred years on this earth.

Unless bestowed with Heaven’s Mandate to live a little longer.

For the rest, they are but passersby in this world, and what of it if they leave behind some traces?

Becoming a Strange Spirit, at least one can attain a lifespan of a thousand years.

Moreover... Brother Kitchen Knife, with your talent, joining our Thornblood, and on top of that handing over the Divine Wood Order to strive together for a great cause.

Our achievements will be enough to take us to the realms beyond, to worship at the ancestral statue, and be transformed into undying beings!"

The Thornblood member tempted.

"I’m already undying," Qi Yuan flatly refused.

He was vain enough not to want to be transformed into a being like a Strange Spirit.

"Sigh, Brother Kitchen Knife, you misunderstand Thornblood too much; we aren’t set on destroying the world, in fact, we’re trying to save it.

Haven’t you noticed that this world is sick?

Kings are unjust, noble clans run amok, greedy officials are brazen, treating royal laws as nothing, and the common people live in suffering."

"You make a good point; the morals have indeed degraded too much." Qi Yuan deeply agreed.

A trace of joy appeared on the Thornblood member’s face, "Does Brother Kitchen Knife wish to join us in Thornblood to change the world?"

"Forget it, the moral atmosphere within your Thornblood doesn’t seem much better; that old man even wants to keep me as his kept man, I should change you instead!"

"Sigh, it seems Brother Kitchen Knife is unwilling," the Thornblood member was somewhat disappointed, "I had thought you and I were kindred spirits."

"Don’t talk about such disgusting things!"

...

Exiting the Divine Wood Order, Qi Yuan appeared contemplative.

"Based on the plot information obtained so far, should Thornblood be considered a mini-boss?"

"These things aren’t important, what’s important is to increase strength, and... role-playing."

"Sigh, leveling up is too hard; I’m only at level 119."

After slaying countless Mysterious Fish and Luo Tong the Water Lord, Qi Yuan’s experience bar had reached level 119.

Translated into the terms of this world, that would be the peak of an Earth-level Army Commander.

One more step and he would be a Sky-level Soldier Commander.

This time, by playing the role of Kitchen Knife, he’d gained more than twenty levels, which, to Qi Yuan, felt slow.

"Strange, by all accounts, with my experience bar, after slaying so many Strange Spirits and Luo Tong the Water Lord, I should have reached level 120 by now... could it be that this is the work of the heavenly rules?"

Back on Wangyue Continent, Qi Yuan had previously experienced a leveling block.

The experience bar would surge, but no advancement would occur.

Now, he faced the same issue again.

"It must be the restrictions of the world’s rules."

"They Soldier Commanders need to comprehend Unity of Heaven and Man to break through and enter."
