Archean Eon Art Chapter 40: Slaying Blood Cloud Bandits

Chapter 40: Slaying Blood Cloud Bandits

ng Chuan walked into the private room calmly, his gaze landing on the two bandits.

The fat man and the bearded man stood up. They were sowhat wary, but they still welcod him with a smile on their faces. They didn’t wish to cause any trouble in Eastcalm Prefecture. The bearded man cupped his hands and said with a smile, “Greetings, Young Master ng. For you to co to our room, I wonder if you have any instructions for these brothers?”

“I’m here to kill!” When the calm voice rang out, a saber beam lit up.

This strike was too fast!

Now that he was already at the late-stage of the Mortal Shedding realm and had a robust Godfiend foundation, his Godfiend Body was no weaker than an ordinary Seamless realm cultivator. Furthermore, having already figured out Saber Force, even if he didn’t use it, the fusion of body, mind, and technique was enough for him to unleash even greater amounts of his body’s potential. Being most adept at speed, that single slash caused the two bandits in the room to instantly feel their hearts chill.

Not good. Both of them knew that sothing was amiss, but the slightly weaker fat man failed to react in ti as the saber beam sliced through his throat.

Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! The fat man clasped his throat, but the blood kept spewing out. His face beca awash with terror and despair as he felt his life slipping away rapidly.

“What?” The bearded man was a Seamless realm expert. His reaction was much faster, having leaped out of the window the mont ng Chuan struck out with his saber. He knew very well that exchanging blows with ng Chuan was aningless. He needed to flee as fast as he could once his identity was exposed in Eastcalm Prefecture.

The more ti passed, the more powerful experts would arrive. His chances of survival would beco slim.

ng Chuan killed the fat man with a single slash. His figure phased away as he dashed out of the window in pursuit of Blood Hand Zhao Can. These two bandits could forget about escaping today!

“What happened?”

Many guests and won in Azure Cloud Brothel’s main hall watched as a figure flew out from a private room on the second floor. A faster figure soon followed the first. A saber beam streaked across the air, heading towards the first figure..

Before he landed, Blood Hand Zhao Can had worn a black glove. His hands suddenly grew in size as though they were fans. With palms that were twice the size of a normal person’s, he struck out with a mystical move and blocked the strike.

Clang!

Zhao Can felt a powerful force pass through his arm into his body. His body involuntarily slamd onto the floor of Azure Cloud Brothel, causing a huge crater to form on the wooden floor. He sent splinters flying into the air.

The other guests had already quickly retreated. Cultivation was a very common thing. It was very common for people to engage in brawls in places like brothels. Battles normally happened because of jealousy, aning physical injuries the worst outco. However, it seed like this battle was different.

“It’s Young Master ng.” The guests and courtesans watched from afar as they saw the scion land on the ground.

The usually modest young scion was now filled with killing intent. The killing intent in his eyes caused everybody to tremble in fear.

“Young Master ng, don’t go too far. If you push into a corner, I’ll make sure you die with ,” said Zhao Can with a ferocious expression as he stood up.

“You want to die with you?” ng Chuan walked over. “Do you think you have what it takes?”

“Humph.” Zhao Can charged towards the crowd to capture hostages.

Whoosh.

ng Chuan turned into a phantom the mont his Lightning Divine Body erupted. He beca much faster than Zhao Can. Before the latter could hold soone hostage, another slash ca cleaving right at him.

Pfft. Zhao Can blocked with both fan-like hands. A perfect defense that continued for ng Chuan’s next two strikes.

But following that was the third strike.

He seems to be a bit stronger than ? I can’t be held back by him. I have to think of a way to escape. It’s night ti now... as long as I can escape from him in the darkness, I’ll have a chance to escape from Eastcalm Prefecture.

Whoosh.

The third strike remained as fast as before.

Just as Zhao Can was about to block the attack, he realized that the saber beam had turned faint. His combat instincts honed over the years made him instinctively retreat, but the faint saber beam slashed him horizontally! It almost sliced across his neck.

Pfft!

One of his arms flew up.

My arm. Zhao Can’s eyes turned red. Although he had managed to dodge the terrifying saber strike, ng Chuan had still managed to slice off his arm.

Escape! Escape! Escape! Zhao Can suppressed his hatred. At this mont, he didn’t hesitate to unleash a forbidden Godfiend technique. Instantly, his skin reddened, and he began to release his Quintessential Energy to his limits. Instantly, his speed and strength increased by a great deal, but the longer this state persisted, the more danger he would be in. The damage ranged from injuries to his ridians that would take a year or so to recover to heavily damaging his organs and dantian. Such injuries might cripple him.

However, if he didn’t use a forbidden Godfiend technique, certain death awaited him.

Boom! He completely unleashed the forbidden technique. Zhao Can frantically slamd into the nearest wall. Tables and chairs along the path shattered, and a huge hole opened up in the thick wooden wall. He imdiately charged outside.

In order to survive, he didn’t even have ti to go through the door or the windows. Instead, he charged into the wall.

“Humph!” Unstained by any blood, the saber-wielding ng Chuan moved, transforming into a blur as he pursued Zhao Can through the gaping hole.

Many of the custors in Azure Cloud Brothel heaved sighs of relief and looked outside through the windows. Many of them stared at the gloved arm on the ground in amazent.

“The person who was being pursued earlier on seems to have the strength at the Seamless realm.”

“Yet, his strength is still inferior to Young Master ng Chuan.”

“Young Master ng is from a Godfiend family clan. His Godfiend foundation is naturally much stronger. Furthermore, from the looks of it, Young Master ng’s saber arts are exquisite.”

“Indeed... Young Master ng’s saber arts have probably reached the peak of the Unity realm. In another year or two, there’s a chance he will comprehend Force. How can an ordinary Seamless realm compare with him?” As the guests discussed, so people boldly ca to the severed arm and carefully took off the black glove. They saw the blood-red palm that was twice as large as an ordinary person’s.

“Blood Fiend Hand?”

“There are still people who cultivate such evil martial arts? Could it be Blood Hand Zhao Can?”

“Blood Hand Zhao Can, he’s the second-in-command of the Blood Cloud Bandits. He’s an expert at the Seamless realm. Yet, he’s being pursued by Young Master ng Chuan. Young Master ng’s saber arts are truly formidable. He might really be able to comprehend Saber Force in another year or two.”

“How can such an ordinary Seamless realm expert compare with geniuses like Young Master ng?”

There was a flurry of discussion in the brothel. There were quite a few daring people who went out to chase after the duo, but clearly, they were not as fast as ng Chuan or Zhao Can—who had cast a forbidden technique.

How did I expose myself? Eleventh Sister’s disguising techniques are already superb. No one can see through . Could it be a slip of the tongue by that idiot or those courtesans? Zhao Can was filled with hatred and anxiety as he ran as fast as he could.

ng Chuan chased after him.

After chasing for half a kiloter, the surroundings beca quiet.

Swoosh! ng Chuan’s speed suddenly increased dramatically.

What a joke.

Having cultivated the Lightning Divine Body and comprehending Force, the speed he could unleash far exceeded Zhao Can’s. Zhao Can remained inferior despite using the forbidden Godfiend technique. Many people had been watching in Azure Cloud Brothel, so ng Chuan had only used 30% of his strength, making him appear slightly stronger than Zhao Can. He had used 50% of his strength when cleaving off Zhao Can’s arm. His grandaunt had instructed him to wait until next year to reveal that he had comprehended Force.

In front of others, he naturally had to keep a low profile.

What? Realizing that ng Chuan’s speed had suddenly increased, Zhao Can was driven to the brink of insanity. How can this be?

The rapidly approaching ng Chuan was a blur. Even the Seamless realm Zhao Can couldn’t make his figure out. He suddenly realized that a saber beam was coming towards him, so he raised his left hand to block it.

The saber beam changed direction. It was extrely ghostly.

The beam passed through one of his legs, and a leg flew up.

Without using Saber Force, ng Chuan could only use 50% of his strength. This strike contained 50% of his strength, but he had also imbued Power of the Soul into it, causing the saber beam to speed up by 30% as it approached Zhao Can. This caused Zhao Can to lose a leg despite casting the forbidden Godfiend technique.

Zhao Can fell to the ground. He had already lost an arm and leg. He revealed a look of despair. His control over his body as a Seamless realm expert allowed him to reduce the bleeding from his leg and arm stumps.

“Young Master ng, I don’t have any enmity with you. There’s no need for you to kill ,” said Zhao Can imdiately. There was no way for him to dodge with one leg missing. He had also lost an arm. Killing him was too easy. However, Zhao Can still wanted to live!

He was an expert at the Seamless realm. Even if he lost an arm and leg, he could still live comfortably.

“Oh? Didn’t you also take the lives of over three hundred people when you had no enmity with them?” ng Chuan walked towards Zhao Can.

“I have silver and treasures.” Zhao Can imdiately took out a thick stack of silver notes with his left hand. “There’s nearly 40,000 silvers worth of banknotes here. Also, this is a Godfiend treasure.”

Zhao Can took out the black tal piece wrapped in cloth. “This Godfiend treasure is worth 100,000 taels.”

He didn’t say that the Blood Cloud Bandits had wanted to sell it for 100,000 taels but had failed to obtain a buyer.

“These are yours. All yours, Young Master ng,” said Zhao Can imdiately. “As long as you spare my wretched life.”

“Using sothing on you to beg for rcy?” ng Chuan continued walking over.

“I’m the second-in-command of the Blood Cloud Bandits. I know the location of one of its treasure troves,” said Zhao Can imdiately. “As long as you spare and let go, I’ll tell you.”

Pfft.

A saber beam flashed.

When ng Chuan ca close, he imbued his saber with the Power of the Soul and easily cut Zhao Can’s neck.

“You, you...” Zhao Can’s eyes widened. Why didn’t he give him a chance to live?

“I don’t care about the treasures of you bandits,” said ng Chuan calmly as he watched Zhao Can die.

The Blood Cloud Bandits were powerful, with eight Seamless realm bandits, and a leader who grasped Force among them. However, that leader’s strength was barely on par with ng Chuan’s. How could a bandit’s wealth be worth anything compared to the ng family’s? ng Chuan thought nothing of it. The valuable treasures he had used to build his Godfiend foundation was worth countless tis more than the Blood Cloud Bandits’ entire wealth.

ng Chuan reached out to pick up the stack of banknotes and looked at the black tal piece that had been exposed. A Godfiend item? It seems to be very damaged. He did not think much of it and temporarily put it away.
