Chapter 888: A Deal With Li Xueying, the Countdown to the Black Blood Towers Destruction
Just as Li Xueying was about to die, a white figure suddenly appeared.
That figure standing before her was tall and slender, with an inexplicably stalwart air about him. It gave Li Xueying a comforting sense of security.
Meanwhile, the gold-masked a.s.sa.s.sin was held back three meters from that white figure. It was as if an invisible barrier was in his way, preventing him from reaching her with his attacks.
The next instant.
The huge golden palm immediately shattered and dispersed.
Who the h.e.l.l are you?!
The gold-masked a.s.sa.s.sin said with much horror as he looked at the white figure that had appeared out of nowhere.
To think his full-strength attack was blocked so easily by that person?
His opponents strength was clearly unfathomable.
Who am I, huh? Hm Lets just say Im the one whos about to wipe out the Black Blood Tower.
Chu Kuangren said lightly. Following that, his mind power instantly poured out and locked onto every Black Blood Tower a.s.sa.s.sin around him.
How powerful was his soul energy now?
At the Firth Cycles peak of his Nine-Cycle Trinity Soul Refinement, he could battle a peak-stage Great Daoist Celestial with only his soul energy, let alone three of them.
His mind power was enough to kill every Great Daoist Celestial on sight.
He did not even need to use his Single Thought Series at all.
Boom, boom, boom
Several veils of blood mists exploded in the void one after another. Before they could even react, all of the a.s.sa.s.sins were already dead.
The surrounding onlooking cultivators could not help but feel a chill running down their spine.
How did he kill all of these men?
What did he just say? Hes going to destroy the Black Blood Tower? Is he really going to fight the Black Blood Tower? Has he gone mad?
Everyone began distancing themselves from Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren ignored them, turned around, and walked towards Li Xueying. He then used the Spring Breeze Healing Technique to heal her injuries.
n.o.ble daughter of the Li Clan, why dont we make a deal?
Chu Kuangren immediately cut to the chase.
A deal?
Li Xueying was a little puzzled as she returned to her senses.
Thats right.
Who are you?
Although he was the one that saved her, Li Xueying revealed a cautious look after discovering that he had a motive for doing it.
Chu Kuangren was not bothered about her cautiousness. He simply lifted the spiritual veil covering his face and said, My name is Chu Kuangren.
Everyone surrounding them gasped upon hearing that name.
The Sword Poem Immortal, Chu Kuangren!!
Why Why is he here of all places?
Li Xueying was stunned to hear that name too.
So hes the Sword Poem Immortal
I cant believe its him.
What kind of deal?
Its too noisy here. Lets find somewhere else to talk, Chu Kuangren said and walked towards a luxurious inn nearby.
Li Xueying also followed him.
She had a hunch.
Perhaps the fate of the Li clans lies on Chu Kuangren himself.
Amidst the crowd.
A man in gray robes was looking at Chu Kuangren and Li Xueying strangely.
Chu Kuangren has appeared on Planet Sirius. It seems like hes here just to take down the Black Blood Tower. This is not good. I must notify the Master as soon as possible!
He was an a.s.sa.s.sin from the Black Blood Tower too.
Soon, news of Chu Kuangrens arrival at Planet Zi spread like wildfire.
Many of the Black Blood Towers a.s.sa.s.sins quickly rushed toward him. Among them, a lot were gold-masked a.s.sa.s.sins as well. After all, in the Black Blood Towers list of a.s.sa.s.sination targets, the bounty for Chu Kuangrens head was the highest!
a.s.sa.s.sins would kill as long as they were paid.
Moreover, most killers would be interested in a bounty as great as this.
Inside the inn.
Chu Kuangren ignored everyones gaze and ordered a table full of delicious food. At the sight of all that food, Li Xueying began salivating. It has been a long time since she had a good meal.
Just eat away.
Chu Kuangren said.
I shall help myself then.
Li Xueying immediately picked up her chopsticks and started eating. Although she had not enjoyed food as good as that for a long time, she still maintained a ladylike demeanor while eating quickly. She did not look barbaric gobbling up the food without any regard from her at all.
She was not afraid that Chu Kuangren would poison the food either.
If the Sword Poem Immortal wanted to harm her, would he need to resort to using cheap tricks like poison?
Chu Kuangren continued to drink the wine. He was not in a hurry to speak.
After a while, Li Xueying was almost full, and she was the one to speak first. What brings you here, Sword Poem Immortal?
Im here to take down the Black Blood Tower.
Chu Kuangren immediately answered.
Youre enemies with the Black Blood Tower?
Not really. Its just that theyre coming after my life because of Planet Zis rewards. Thats why I need to get rid of them. So, theyre not really my enemies.
Chu Kuangren said.
Hatred was something that he would always remember.
As for the Black Blood Tower, they were not worth him remembering them at all.
The other guests in the inn could not help but be impressed by his boldness when they heard that.
Thats the Black Blood Tower were talking about here, the most powerful organization on Planet Sirius now. Even in the Violet Gold Galaxy, they are still very well-known for their power.
Yet, Chu Kuangren is simply going to destroy them just because he wants to?
Im afraid no one can come up close to him with such boldness and arrogance.
You were talking about a deal earlier. What do you mean by that?
Li Xueying asked again.
I have almost fully grasped the situation here on Planet Sirius. The goals of your Li clan happen to align with mine. I can help you destroy the Black Blood Tower, but I want your Li clans Immortal Techniques and forbidden techniques in return. Besides this, my Firmament Star might even build relations with Planet Sirius in the foreseeable future, so I want your Li clan to oversee and facilitate this process.
Chu Kuangren said.
That was the reason why he saved Li Xueying.
Having also witnessed the power of the Li clans Immortal Technique and forbidden technique earlier, he became interested in it and would not mind learning a few new tricks.
Im afraid I cant make the decision.
It doesnt matter. As long as you give me your word, I can help you rise to the rank of the Li Clan Leader. When that time comes, you can call the shots without trouble.
Chu Kuangren explained casually.
The corners of Li Xueyings mouth twitched. She finally understood that the terms of the deal were not in her favor all along. While Chu Kuangren had all the chips in the negotiation, the Li Clan had none at all.
My guest, heres your wine.
At that moment, a young waiter came to them with a jar of wine.
I do not recall ordering any wine.
The innkeeper of this inn is a big fan of yours, Sword Poem Immortal. Thats why hes offering to give this wine to you for free. The young waiter smiled flatteringly.
Oh, I see. Please offer my thanks to the innkeeper then.
Chu Kuangren grinned a little.
He took the jar of wine, poured some for himself, and immediately drank a cup in one go.
He continued telling Li Xueying, In all honesty, this is not so much of a deal but an opportunity that Im offering the Li clan. If you accept it, the Li Clan will be reborn and flourish. It wont affect me much if you reject it, but the Li clan will cease to exist from here on out.
He continued drinking the wine while speaking. Li Xueying also wanted to pour some wine to drink but found her hand being slapped away by Chu Kuangren.
How short-tempered
Li Xueying pouted.
Very well. Ill agree with your terms!
She nodded.
As Chu Kuangren said, the Li Clan had no choice left.
Alright.
To show my sincerity, I promise you that I shall wipe the Black Blood Tower off the face of this planet within a single month!
Chu Kuangren drank all the wine in that jar until the last drop.
After he finished speaking.
He waved his sleeves and unleashed his majestic Emperor qi, slamming it into the void everywhere around him like a cras.h.i.+ng tide.
Several figures were blasted out from the void. Some of them could not bear such powerful Emperor qi and immediately died from an explosion.
The guests in the inn were horrified to see that, and everyone quickly fled the scene.
When?
Li Xueyings expression changed a little as she looked at the figures who were blasted out from the void. They were all a.s.sa.s.sins from the Black Blood Tower!
Sword Poem Immortal Chu Kuangren, today is the day you shall die!
A gold-masked a.s.sa.s.sin said coldly.
Youre mistaken, today is not the day that Ill die, but the first day of the countdown to the Black Blood Towers destruction, Chu Kuangren said lightly..
