He actually guessed the Alien Star warriors, not bad!
Du Ge, lurking in the shadows, murmured to himself.
He was here to kill Prince Duan, but he hadn't expected a Golden Elixir master to be present as well.
In theory, he was now also in the Golden Elixir Realm, with the blessing of three types of divine power, so dealing with a Golden Elixir master shouldn't be a problem.
However, Du Ge was unsure of the combat strength and style of Golden Elixir masters in this world.
Long Yichen had ntioned that a Golden Elixir master's escape technique could cover a hundred miles in an instant, not much slower than his teleportation. Moreover, they could summon wind and rain, control ghosts, and communicate with gods, which sounded quite troubleso...
The most critical issue was that this was the capital, where three Alien Star warriors had already fallen. If he couldn't finish the fight quickly, getting surrounded would be a big problem.
Even a prince's mansion could host a Golden Elixir master. In such a vast capital, there might be people of even higher realms. With the Alien Star warriors causing such a stir, it's possible to hide a deity in the capital.
Should he wait for the Golden Elixir master to leave and then target Prince Duan?
Du Ge pondered silently. The only thing he wasn't worried about was the so-called backlash of dragon energy. What kind of backlash couldn't the recovery ability of an Alien Star warrior withstand?
"Master Si, these are troubled tis. I must trouble you to guard closely during these days," Prince Duan sighed and said.
"You worry too much, my lord. This is what I should do," Master Si stroked his beard and smiled. "The Wu You Sect and my lord share both loss and glory. We are counting on you to ascend the throne!"
Guard closely?
Du Ge was speechless for a mont. Well, this is like the King of Hell ordering you to die at five. The bold are fed, the timid starve, and being too cautious doesn't fit his character.
Above the Golden Elixir is the Elental Infant, above that is the Integration, and above that are the immortals...
Where in the world are there so many safe things?
With a determined heart, Du Ge adjusted the tip of Liao Jiulong's flying sword, silently aiming it at Master Si's vital point. Then, he infused the sword with three types of divine power and launched a fierce attack.
Qi Refiners had bodies like copper and iron, so who knew how tough a Golden Elixir master's body was? Although he had upgraded his weapon, Du Ge wouldn't make the sa mistake twice.
In the first Simulation Field, he had killed a Glutton in this manner.
Later, the seven-orifice touch wreaked havoc on two Alien Star battlefields. Du Ge knew best where a person's soft spots were, and a child's height was advantageous for his moves.
Dark God power excelled in concealnt, but during an attack, all concealnt effects would disappear.
However, the two were too close, and the quality of Du Ge's Golden Elixir, forged by three types of divine power, was almost overwhelming for an ordinary Golden Elixir master.
By the ti Master Si realized sothing was wrong, it was too late to react. He barely managed to condense a layer of protective spiritual power around his body.
But the quality of the divine power was too high.
Where the sword edge reached.
With a soft sound, the long sword pierced straight into Master Si's vital point.
The attributes of Sun God power and Dark God power, such as scorching, corrosion, and erosion, quickly exploded within him.
It was unstoppable.
In almost an instant, it shattered his internal organs, rushed into his brain, and then shot out from the top of his head, leaving a hole in the roof with blood and brain matter.
Master Si only had ti to let out a short scream before his life was extinguished.
The sudden attack left Master Si's disciple and Prince Duan across from him dumbfounded.
So fragile?
After a mont of shock, Du Ge quickly realized that his divine power level was probably too high. If he had known this, he wouldn't have hesitated earlier!
"Who are you?" Prince Duan blurted out.
In his eyes, a mass of humanoid black mist suddenly appeared behind Master Si, and then a long sword stabbed into Master Si's vital point, taking his life in one move. At this mont, his mind was blank, and the question he asked was purely instinctive.
"The one who will take your life," Du Ge rasped, as the flying sword erged and swept towards Master Si's disciple, who was still in a daze, decapitating him and taking his life.
After killing them, Du Ge released the rolling vengeful spirits from the Soul Suppression Bottle to harvest their souls.
Then, he teleported behind Prince Duan, planning to replicate the heart-wrenching attack, as Du Ge found that this thod of killing seed to better showcase his ruthlessness.
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out.
Du Ge's flying sword had just touched Prince Duan's body.
A white light suddenly emanated from Prince Duan, pushing him back.
Du Ge, with sharp eyes, noticed that the jade pendant on Prince Duan's waist flashed for a mont. Was it the legendary protective artifact?
"You want to kill ?" Prince Duan finally ca to his senses, his face pale. "Who are you? Don't you know I'm a prince?"
"I'm here to kill the prince," Du Ge sneered and launched a second attack using the sa technique.
The flying sword was once again blocked by the protective artifact.
"Aren't you afraid of the backlash of dragon energy?" Prince Duan was both shocked and terrified, wanting to run, but his legs felt like they were filled with lead, unable to move. The thought of experiencing the sa death as Master Si made him tremble, and a warm liquid flowed down his legs.
At this point, he could only hope that soone outside would quickly notice the commotion and co to rescue him.
"What do you think?" Du Ge chuckled softly and attacked again. "I want to see how many tis your protective artifact can withstand my attacks."
"Don't kill . Whatever you want, I can give it to you," Prince Duan said urgently. "This is the emperor's domain. If you kill , you won't escape either."
Du Ge stopped wasting words with him and accelerated his attack rhythm. He didn't believe that a small country's prince's protective artifact could completely block a Golden Elixir master's attack, especially since his Golden Elixir quality far exceeded that of an ordinary Golden Elixir.
"Don't kill , we can cooperate," Prince Duan beca increasingly panicked as he felt the vibrations in his body. "You are an Elental Infant ancestor, your cultivation is not easy to co by. Why waste it on , a re prince? Was it the Crown Prince who sent you? Whatever he can give you, I can too..."
Crack!
After several sword strikes.
The protective artifact on Prince Duan made a crisp sound and was covered in cracks.
This sound was like a death knell, causing Prince Duan to shudder violently. In a mont of desperation, he said, "Ancestor, spare . I am a prince. If you take hostage, I can help you escape the capital."
"Hostage? Ancestor takes pleasure in killing. When did I need to escape?" Du Ge sneered and thrust his sword again.
Crack!
The protective artifact on Prince Duan shattered completely.
"Not from behind..." Prince Duan's voice abruptly stopped, his eyes bulging, blood flowing from his orifices, and his life ended.
After Prince Duan's death.
The vengeful spirits seed to find their target, with sharp cries, they rushed towards Prince Duan's body.
Du Ge vaguely saw Prince Duan's phantom being torn to pieces amidst the screams. The so-called backlash of dragon energy never ca. Was it because the level of divine power was too high, or was it because the identity of an Alien Star warrior was not bound by the causality of this world?
However, with Prince Duan dead, his goal was achieved, and there was no need to linger here.
With a sweep of divine power, he looted all the bottles and jars from Master Si and Prince Duan, and Du Ge was about to exit Prince Duan's mansion.
Suddenly.
A thunderous voice ca from the sky: "What demon dares to assassinate the prince?"
Du Ge was stunned. Damn, so alert?
Life lamp!
Suddenly, a na flashed in Du Ge's mind.
Damn, he overlooked it.
When the pri minister's son was possessed, they could detect the extinguishing of the life lamp, let alone a prince?
Ha!
Indeed, killing in a world of immortals is too troubleso. Just making the soul fly away is far from enough!
Since he was discovered, he might as well face it head-on!
If it were nightti, with the concealnt of Dark God power, he could silently exit the capital. But now it was dayti, and while he could hide in the shadows, the refraction of light by Sun God power could block mortal eyes but not Qi Refiners.
Could he wait here until nightfall?
Who knew if they had any other magical treasures?
Therefore.
Facing them head-on was the best choice.
If he couldn't win, couldn't he still run?
Under the sunlight, whose escape technique could be faster than his?
Du Ge sighed helplessly, broke through the roof of Prince Duan's mansion, and stood in the sky with divine power, but he didn't reveal his true form, instead using the black mist of Dark God power to form an adult-sized figure.
Outside Prince Duan's mansion.
More than a dozen Qi Refiners had already set up a formation. Seeing Du Ge erge, they didn't waste words and each controlled their flying swords, slashing towards Du Ge.
The sky was filled with sword lights, weaving into a net that blocked all of Du Ge's escape routes.
Clearly.
This was a combined attack technique.
However.
A re group of Qi Refiners, Du Ge really didn't take them seriously. No matter how strong the sword net was, it wouldn't protect their backs, and Sun God power allowed for teleportation.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
With a villainous grin, Du Ge struck down each Qi Refiner with a single sword, piercing them like skewered candied fruits.
Without the elent of surprise, he didn't need to get close. With a casual flick, he could send out sword energy spanning forty or fifty ters, and the flexibility of divine power-ford sword energy far surpassed that of the Qi Refiners' sword energy.
In the blink of an eye.
More than half of the Qi Refiners were dead, falling from the sky like dumplings, their deaths grueso.
In a life-and-death situation, Du Ge wouldn't waste words with them. Good or bad, anyone who attacked him without distinguishing right from wrong was an enemy, and nothing was more important than surviving.
Moreover, ruthlessness had to be demonstrated sooner or later. If not during battle, then when?
"Not good, it's not a demon, it's a Golden Elixir master. Quickly, call the ancestor," the remaining Qi Refiners, seeing the situation turn dire, turned their sword lights and fled.
"The fate of New Moon is coming to an end. When the ancestor returns, it will be the day of New Moon's downfall."
Du Ge laughed wildly, leaving behind a smoke bomb. Black mist surged from his body, covering half the sky, making it seem like night had fallen over the capital.
The people on the streets panicked and fled. Using the black mist as cover, Du Ge swept up the shocked Liao Jiulong and his two companions from the teahouse, looted the flying swords from the Qi Refiners he had killed, erased their marks, and directly teleported out of the capital.
With a few flashes, he was already hundreds of miles away.
...
Just as Du Ge left.
Four middle-aged n appeared above Prince Duan's mansion, as if they had teleported there.
The four exchanged glances, their expressions sowhat grave.
"Master Lan, where did that demon flee to?" asked the black-clothed middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man in blue glanced at the compass in his hand and calculated with his fingers: "Five hundred miles to the east."
"Master Lan, can you discern his origins?" asked the white-clothed middle-aged man with a small mustache, frowning.
Master Lan calculated again, but soon, his face turned pale: "I can't discern it. His origins are shrouded in mystery."
"A demon?" the white-clothed middle-aged man asked.
"If a demon had such supernatural powers, the world would have been in chaos long ago," the black-clothed middle-aged man sighed. "His aura is filled with demonic energy. Who knows how many years this demon has been cultivating in seclusion."
"If he's a demon, why suddenly kill in the capital, and why assassinate a prince? From his words, it seems he has a deep hatred for New Moon," said the green-clothed man who had remained silent. "Even if he's a demon, the backlash of dragon energy should have severely injured him, yet his cultivation seems unaffected."
"Let's go down and take a look before drawing conclusions," said the black-clothed middle-aged man, flashing into Prince Duan's mansion. When his gaze fell on the bodies of Prince Duan and Master Si, he was montarily stunned.
"Si Mujian of Wu You Valley," said the white-clothed middle-aged man.
"Killed with a single strike to the vital point," said the blue-clothed middle-aged man.

"Prince Duan too," said the green-clothed man. "His protective jade was shattered by the opponent, and then he was pierced by a flying sword. If the intent was to kill, why not simply decapitate? Why such brutality?"
"The retainers outside died in the sa manner," said the black-clothed middle-aged man. "Perhaps it's his preference."
At these words.
The other three involuntarily felt a tightness behind them, instinctively pressing their legs together. Such a death was too humiliating; no one wanted to die like that.
"Master Si's cultivation was similar to ours, yet he was killed with a single blow. That demon's cultivation should be at the peak of the Golden Elixir. We are no match for him," the green-clothed man hesitated for a mont and said. "We need an Elental Infant ancestor to take him down."
"Master Shi is right," said the blue-clothed man. "We should report this to our sects."
"No demonic energy," the white-clothed man said, closely examining the wounds of Master Si and Prince Duan.
"How is that possible? The overwhelming demonic energy nearly covered half the capital," the black-clothed man instinctively retorted, then looked at Master Si's wound and was stunned. He squatted down to examine the wound closely, murmuring, "There's indeed no demonic energy, and it seems to have a hint of righteous energy."
The remaining two also examined the wounds closely, then frowned: "But when he left, we clearly saw the overwhelming demonic energy. Could he actually be a righteous cultivator?"
"What if he's using a demonic artifact for disguise?" suggested the white-clothed man.
"Master Lan, can you tell which sect's technique it is?" asked the black-clothed man.
"I can't tell," Master Lan shook his head. "It was just a simple sword strike, with no technique or trace of a cultivation thod."
"A righteous cultivator pretending to be a demon, assassinating Prince Duan, how strange?" the green-clothed man frowned. "Masters, perhaps we should investigate what Prince Duan has been up to recently. We might find so clues."
"The Longliu Manor massacre is related to Prince Duan," said the black-clothed man.
The white-clothed man said, "Let's send soone to Wu You Sect to investigate Si Mujian."
"The flying swords and pills were looted," said the black-clothed man, who had been squatting on the ground. "This person's actions are quite peculiar. Masters, do you truly not believe he is a demon?"
The others were silent.
Master Lan said, "If it truly is the work of a demon, then the demon's growth rate is too fast. This matter is beyond our control. We should return to our sects and let the ancestors decide."
"Should we pursue that demon?" the white-clothed man looked at his three companions, testing the waters. "After today, his blood aura will dissipate, and it will be harder to find him."
The group remained silent.
Master Lan glanced at the compass again and said, "It's already gone."
Phew!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
In truth, everyone knew that just now was the best ti to track him. With their cultivation, five hundred miles was but a mont's journey, but...
"Masters, let's return to the palace, report to His Majesty, and then decide," suggested the green-clothed man. "After all, he is the emperor, ruling the mortal realm, and the one who died was a prince. We shouldn't act without his consent."
"Agreed!"
The masters all concurred, and in a flash, they left Prince Duan's mansion.
From start to finish, no one ntioned pursuing Du Ge.
