Chapter 350: Kneel Down and Beg for Mercy
In an instant.
The entire room was shrouded in a foggy life force energy, as if heaven and earth had changed color.
The elder sneered, "Young man of the Shui Family, your life force is very abundant, I quite like it. If I absorb you, I might reach the Grandmaster Level. Rest assured, by then I will certainly remember your contribution! As for the others, they're all trash, I'll just put them out of their misery and absorb them too."
Qian Changle was horrified and bewildered, and he could only lean a little closer to Xu Hao. Under such dangerous circumstances, only someone as powerful as Xu Hao could offer a sense of security.
But he didn't dare to get too close, fearing that Xu Hao would find it repellent.
At this time, Lei Qianjue's actions somewhat surprised Xu Hao. He didn't panic, instead, he took out some Sulphur from the medicine box he carried and said, "Master, let's light the Sulphur and draw a circle with the Sulphur Flame. As long as we stand inside the circle, we won't fear the attack of the mutated Qi and Blood."
Seeing Lei Qianjue's actions, the elder didn't stop him but laughed, "So you know to use Sulphur, it seems you do know a few things. However, the knowledge you've acquired is too outdated. The life force energy in my Bloodthirsty Formation has merged with Evil energy. The two complement each other and are not afraid of a mere Sulphur Flame at all!"
"Impossible!"
Lei Qianjue's face changed slightly. After retorting, he quickly lit some Sulphur.
But he was soon dumbfounded.
Normally, life force upon encountering Sulphur Flame would rapidly burn away, but these mutated forms of life force showed no signs of igniting whatsoever!
Bu Liuqing scoffed, "How could I, Bu Liuqing, who has held the Bloodthirsty orb and studied the power of life force for so long, not solve the problem of life force being vulnerable to Sulphur?"
"You're Bu Liuqing? So you are Bu Liuqing!"
Lei Qianjue clearly recognized the name, and at that moment, he became extremely panicked, saying in shock, "Five years ago, there were rumors that a traitor emerged from the Blood Evil Sect, stole the sect's counterfeit Treasure, the Bloodthirsty orb, and injured many Sect Disciples. Afterward, the Blood Evil Sect offered a hefty reward for his capture, but the matter faded into oblivion. All these years, the missing Bu Liuqing was here!"
Xu Hao was somewhat taken aback; Bu Liuqing was actually a disciple of the Blood Evil Sect.
However, thinking of the cultivation technique he practiced and the Bloodthirsty orb he held, Xu Hao somewhat understood; it was indeed very possible that Bu Liuqing was a disciple of the Blood Evil Sect.
The Blood Evil Sect's name might be unknown in the Secular World, but in the Martial Arts World, it was an extremely dreaded name, for they were an Assassin Organization!
As long as you're willing to pay money or offer valuable items, there's no one the Blood Evil Sect can't kill.
However, Bu Liuqing had escaped from the Blood Evil Sect that year.
With his strength below the Grandmaster Level, could he really have escaped?
Xu Hao couldn't help but question, but what he needed to do most at the moment was to subdue him. Xu Hao had no intention of killing him right then and there; through Bu Liuqing, Xu Hao wanted to learn more about the Martial Arts World, so naturally, he wanted to keep a live captive.
However, the fact that Lei Qianjue also knew of the existence of the Blood Evil Sect confirmed Xu Hao's speculations about his background.
After all, the Blood Evil Sect was an existence beyond modern society, and Xu Hao's interest in it was limited to understanding it.
Bu Liuqing sneered, "As expected of the Southwest Medicine King, Lei Qianjue, you do know quite a bit. However, today you still have to die here because you know too much!"
With that, he activated the life force energy and furiously surged toward Xu Hao and the others.
Lei Qianjue said coldly, "This life force has a corrosive effect, capable of corroding our flesh, after which Bu Liuqing can use the power of the Bloodthirsty orb to absorb our life force and strengthen himself."
Xu Hao looked at Bu Liuqing coldly and said, "Bu Liuqing, you have already fallen into the Demon Path. Although the Blood Evil Sect's name is horrifying, they do not kill the innocent. Yet for your cultivation, you have absorbed the life force of so many people. If you stop now, I will spare your life."
Qian Changle also said, "Master Bu Liuqing, please stop this at once, otherwise if Young Master Xu makes a move, you are certain to die without a burial place. You know, even if attacked by ten experts at the Great Perfection Mastery Level, Young Master Xu could kill them all in an instant!"
Although there weren't as many attackers last night nor were they at the Great Perfection Mastery Level, this did not prevent Qian Changle from exaggerating the facts to intimidate Bu Liuqing.
Unfortunately, Bu Liuqing clearly had no intention of stopping.
He snorted, "I, Bu Liuqing, have lived to this day without ever being restrained by others. You think you can scare me off with just a few words? This youngster might have a decent heritage, but given his age, how strong can he be? Am I not his match? Hmph, laughable!"
Then, something seemed to occur to him. Looking at Xu Hao, a trace of greed flashed in his eyes, and with a twist in his tone, he pointed at Xu Hao and said, "Boy, if you kneel and beg for mercy, and willingly let me bind your brain, I will spare your life. Otherwise, to prevent the Shui Family from seeking revenge, I will definitely kill you."
