Chapter 1835: The Man With Blood Hair

As the auction ended, some of the cultivators left Tianjue Pavilion, while others stayed behind.

On the surface, everything looked normal.

In reality, however, due to all sorts of supreme treasures being exposed, the atmosphere was rather bizarre.

In the private room, Zhang Ruochen sat at the table, motionless.

Zhang Ruochen knew that his identity as “the secret disciple of Yanshen” had been the focus of Mister Godcliff’s attention. While there were inscriptions and wards on the wall, but they could not stop an Array Master from surveying.

Luo Yi was obviously quite the shrewd person, and every time Xiang Chunan was about to speak, he would interrupt the latter, and then they would drink and chat.

On the table, the soft brilliance from the copper lamp illuminated the entire private room.

The only exception was a small dark area beneath the lamp.

At this moment, a small insect that looked like a mosquito emerged from the hole on the floorboard as it flapped its wings and flew to the dark area under the lamp.

No one would have paid attention to every move of a mosquito the size of a needle tip.

Zhang Ruochen may look like he was studying the three-hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicines he had just obtained, but in fact, all of his attention was focused on the mosquito.

If one were to observe carefully, you will see that the mosquito was somewhat unusual.

Its head looked like a snake, and its neck was longer than the length of its body.

“A Primordial species, a Snake-necked Mosquito.”

The Snake-necked Mosquitoes used its claws and gestured towards Zhang Ruochen with one word after another in the unlit area.

“The time of the offensive against the Eastern Region Saint King Manor will commence six hours from now, and it’s a simultaneous assault against 80 sub-cities, and the main city itself.” The Snake-necked Mosquito must have been sent by Jiang Yunchong over to inform him.

The Array Master’s spiritual power was just too strong, and it seemed that Jiang Yunchong was also quite cautious.

“For them to act so soon, I really don’t have any time to make any preparations.”

Zhang Ruochen suddenly stood up, as he said to the people in the private room. “I have gained a lot in this trip to the Eastern Region Holy City. It’s time to go back to the Celestial Court, and purchase a batch of sacred pills, and reach a higher level of cultivation. Let’s go.”

With Zhang Ruochen in the lead, Luo Yi, Xiang Chunan, Murong Yue, and the rest all walked down the stairs step by step.

Jiang Yunchong stood in the lobby of the first floor and looked at Zhang Ruochen as he said with a smile. “Your Highness, leaving Tianjue Pavilion so soon? Why not stay here for a few more days? Both Fairy Lian Xi and Fairy Tianchu, both unparalleled scions of the heavens are here as guests!”

“Beauties are the burial mound of a hero. No matter how beautiful those two fairies are, they are flawless clouds in the heavens, and would not be a consort of a mortal prince. Rather than thinking about it, it’s better to kill such thoughts before it takes root. Sir, I hope we will meet again.”

Zhang Ruochen stared deeply at Jiang Yunchong and then walked out of Tianjue Pavilion.

Jueyan Hu smiled and said, “That madman has some self-awareness, if he dared to have any ideas on Fairy Lian Xi, his senior brother, Shang Ziyan would surely teach him a painful lesson. Fairy, I’m correct on this, right?”

“Something is not right.” King Daxi’s eyebrows frowned slightly.

Jueyan Hu asked, “What’s wrong?”

King Daxi said. “Those cultivators who had revealed their treasures were all staying at Tianjue Pavilion and dared not leave, because they fear being targeted by someone, and would be intercepted and killed. Why did this person leave at this moment?”

“With him being so arrogant, is there anything he dares not do?” Jueyan Hu sneered.

King Daxi shook her head and said. “Although he is arrogant, from him nickel and diming Mister Xie earlier, showed that he is quite shrewd. How would a shrewd person do such a stupid thing?”

Xie Canghai asked, “How about I pursue him to check him out?”

The moment Zhang Ruochen walked out of Tianjue Pavilion, Mister Godcliff’s spiritual power had been locked onto him.

At this moment, Mister Godcliff frowned and said. “After five hundred miles away from Tianjue Island, his aura had suddenly disappeared. Even my power cannot clearly find where he is. Those cultivators that had coveted the hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicines and the Taiyi Primordial Stone were all thrown off by him.”

“This person is definitely problematic, we cannot let him leave.” Xie Canghai said.

Even Mister Godcliff felt something was off, and said. “Go! But we only have six hours left before the general attack is commenced. Before that, deal with that massive threat, and don’t cause any delay to our main goal.”

“Don’t worry, there are just a group of insignificant youngsters. I just need to lift a finger to deal with them.

Xie Canghai transformed into a black demonic light as he flew out of Tianjue Pavilion toward the vast sea region.

Jiang Yunchong took a look a the black demonic light that had disappeared into the sky, an unnoticeable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as if everything was within his expectations.

After flying five hundred miles away from Tianjue Island, Zhang Ruochen activated the power of the Bodhi Emperor’s Buddhist Beads and concealed his aura as he hid inside a small island.

Immediately afterward, he activated the precepts of space and formed a massive Dimensional Domain that enveloped the island, causing it to disappear from the surface of the sea.

“Why did he suddenly disappear?”

“He must be hiding nearby. It is impossible for him to escape far. Everyone, look for him. After finding him, we’ll kill him together, and divide the treasures on him equally.”

…

Those cultivators that wanted to seize the hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicine and Taiyi Primordial Stone were numerous as they scattered and searched for Zhang Ruochen’s trace.

About three hundred miles away, Zhang Ruochen stood on the tallest part of the island as he looked out into the sea, saying. “No matter what, we cannot let Mister Godcliff and those cultivators take full control of the Eastern Region Holy City. Since they want to take all eighty-one Eastern Region Saint King Manors, then we should find ways to stop them, or to intercept and kill the cultivators they send out.”

“Now, the enemy is in the open and we are hidden, we should make good use of this advantage.”

Xiang Chunan said. “Since Big Bro wants to do it, I, Xiang Chunan will naturally join in, and fight till the heavens collapse. Brother Luo Yi, are you in?”

Luo Yi said. “If Mister Godcliff takes control of the Eastern Region Holy City, it will not be in the interest of the Shangyuan Sect. So tonight, I shall go crazy with all of you with my life on the line.”

Zhang Ruochen said solemnly. “The battle tonight, we can only fight separately. Remember, we don’t need all of you to fight to the death, we just need to harass them from the dark. If you run into an unstoppable powerhouse, retreat immediately. Regardless of whether the Saint King Manors stand or fall, by noon tomorrow, all of us will meet at the Tiankun Crossing.”

Xiang Chunan, Luo Yi, Murong Yue, Xie Chengzi, Lu Huaiyu… all of the saint realm masters that Zhang Ruochen could call upon each took a Bodhi Emperor’s bead and rushed out as they disappeared above the sea.

Zhang Ruochen stayed on the island and waited quietly.

A moment later, a black demonic light broke through the clouds and descended upon the sea region three hundred miles away.

It was Xie Canghai.

Above the sea, all of the saint cultivators were all stunned by the saint path aura emanating from Xie Canghai’s body, as the look of fear appeared in their eyes.

“If you don’t want to die, scram.” Xie Canghai said.

Who dared to provoke Xie Canghai?

The group of saint cultivators all fled away and disappeared completely.

No…

There was another person who had stayed on the surface of the sea, sitting on a small boat with long, blood-red hair. His long hair was like strands of wicker, dropped into the water, and turning the surrounding seawater blood red.

He was extremely noble-looking, with an unusually handsome appearance, it was not the sort of masculine beauty, but instead looking rather feminine.

If he had pretended to a woman, his beautiful face was comparable to the fairies on the Nine Immortals Beauties painting.

But, he was indeed a man.

He held a roll of bamboo slips in his hand and studied it carefully. On the surface of the sea beneath the stars, he looked magnificent and would be able to conquer the hearts of all of the women in the world.

After all, Xie Canghai was an old monster, and his powerful eyesight could tell that the blood-haired man was extraordinary. “Sir, did you not hear what I said?” he asked.

“I heard you. Can you soften your voice, it’s too noisy.”

The blood-haired man’s voice had a magnetic feel to it, and was extremely alluring.

Xie Canghai said. “That guy is probably hiding nearby. I will find him soon enough. I don’t suppose you want to compete with me for his treasure, do you?”

“Of course not.”

The blood-haired man raised his head and finally stared at Xie Canghai as he said. “I just want to take my belonging back.”

“Your belongings?” A puzzled look appeared on Xie Canghai’s face.

The blood-haired man’s voice suddenly became hoarse, as he said. “The Demonic Blood Ax Engraving.”

The voice was exactly the same as the mysterious seller of the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving in Tianjue Pavilion.

“Oh, so it’s you.”

Xie Canghai’s eyes widened, and he was quite shocked.

If not for the fact that Xie Canghai still had important matters to attend to tonight, he did not mind fighting with this person.

But not now.

Xie Canghai’s eyes moved quickly as he smiled and said. “Unfortunately, the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving is not with me, I’m afraid you have found the wrong person.”

The blood-haired man said, “Really? Jiang Yunchong told me that the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving is with you. So is he lying to me, or are you lying to me?”

“Jiang Yunchong…”

Xie Canghai gritted his teeth and hissed. “So you are from the Tianjue Pavilion. Well, well, Tianjue Pavilion, you guys sure are crafty, doing proper business on the surface, yet it’s dog eat dog underneath, eh.”

The blood-haired man shook his head and said. “You misunderstand! I’m not someone from Tianjue Pavilion. I just happened to have the opportunity to cooperate with them once. Otherwise, do you think I’d put the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving up for sale? Are you stupid, or I’m stupid?”

“Then, sir, you are going to seize the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving?” Xie Canghai asked.

The blood-haired man said, “That’s right.”

Xie Canghai laughed. “I have an Array Master behind me, aren’t you afraid?”

“Unfortunately for you, the Array Master is in Tianjue Pavilion, and Jiang Yunchong had already made arrangements long ago, and naturally will have a way to contain him.” The blood-haired man said.

Xie Canghai felt something was not right. While they were planning to attack the East Region Saint King Manor, it seemed that another force was secretly working against them.

“Do you really think I, Xie Canghai, am someone that you can toy with? To provoke an elite of the Precept Domain is to invite disaster.”

The blood-haired man shook his head and said, “Not buying it.”

“Then I’ll let my strength speak, and beat you up until you buy it.”

Xie Canghai called out a ten-thousand pattern sacred artifact of the Ninth Radiance, the Xuantian Battle Ax, and unleashed monstrous demonic energy all over his body, covering hundreds of miles over the sea region. The thick demonic energy turned into a column of air several feet wide in diameter as it rushed straight into the sky.

Xie Canghai raised the Xuantian Battle Ax above his head and struck the blood-haired man in a deadly stroke.

“Whoosh!”

The seawater in the sea region kicked up waves dozens of feet high as they surged forward alongside the shadow of the battle-ax .
