The world fell into dead silence. The legacy of the man who had once been the number one Alchemist of the Qiannan Ancient Kingdom, and the last generation Sect Master of the Heavenly Origin Sect which was wiped out—how precious was that? Likely no one present could claim their heart remained unmoved. However, Chen Fei’s overbearing, martial, ferocious strength still made them somewhat afraid to act rashly.

”The legacy of the Yee Hua Pill King, is it? No wonder… did those people from the Dragon King Mansion already know about this beforehand?” That Tiancong Buddha of Red Ancient Sect muttered to himself. His gaze swept once more across that colossal, towering figure of a hundred zhang, lingering on Chen Fei’s awe-inspiring yet calm, massive face, then he shook his head, turned around, and left.

The emergence of the Yee Hua Pill King’s legacy was an earth-shaking event, and he had to return to report it. Only then would someone handle this matter… As for the legacy of the Yee Hua Pill King already obtained by Chen Fei, to be honest, he wasn’t very interested. First, he was not an Alchemist and knew nothing of Alchemy. Second, he was not a match for Chen Fei’s strength, so he had even less qualification to covet this ’scalding hot potato’.

In truth, from a certain perspective, this legacy of the Yee Hua Pill King was an unparalleled treasure, a sacred object of enlightenment for a particular class of people! But to most others, it was actually only so-so; its allure was not unimaginably great.

It was precisely because Chen Fei understood this principle that he dared to publicly reveal this secret in such an open and aboveboard manner! First, because with his current strength, while trouble might indeed come, he no longer needed to fear anything. Second, with the veil of the Yee Hua Pill King’s legacy as cover, his strength and ability as an Alchemist could finally be displayed in a justified, reasonable, and natural way.

At that time, if anyone wanted to deal with him, they would first have to consider his power and influence as an Alchemist, wouldn’t they?

”Is this what you wanted to say? If so, I’ve helped you say it already. Do you have any other ’my secrets’ you want to talk about?” Chen Fei gazed at the utterly despairing face of Tu Qianshan, his expression half-smiling, half-not, and spoke.

At this moment, to Tu Qianshan, Chen Fei’s face was simply the face of a madman! A demon!

”N-no, don’t kill me! Let… let me go…” Tu Qianshan’s spirit finally collapsed. His face went deathly pale, his bladder let go as he tried to flee in panic. But how could Chen Fei possibly allow this man, who had come running back a second time seeking death, to have his wish!?

”Boom!” A terrifying Qi of Purple Firmament descended, oppressing Heaven and Earth. Pupils shrank all around, and then they saw, within a surging mass of gorgeous deep-purple demon cloud, a terrifying Sword Intent condense into a giant sword of light that cleaved down from above! In an instant, the earth exploded madly, blasting out in all directions.

”Ah…” A miserable wail rang out. Tu Qianshan’s entire body shattered, blood blossomed, his organs torn apart. He erupted with the last of his strength, trying to struggle stubbornly. But his strength at this moment had already lost seventy percent of what it had been at his peak—how could he be a match for Chen Fei, who was now in peak condition!?

Bang! Under that terrifying Sword Intent’s shroud, the remaining half of his body directly burst apart. Blood dyed the ground red, seeping into the soil, unspeakably wretched.

Rumble, rumble, rumble… Immediately afterward, Chen Fei’s gigantic figure shrank. His palm trembled, and he grabbed Tu Qianshan’s utterly despairing face into his hand. Then he suddenly lifted him up, raising him high into the air, and said coldly, ”I spared you once before, didn’t I?”

”Pl-please, I beg you, spare me…” Tu Qianshan no longer even had the strength to struggle. He could only plead in terror with his eyes. Seeing this scene, many people shuddered violently in their hearts, sweeping away the restless thoughts they’d had earlier.

Indeed, some among them had just had their minds swayed and bewitched by the grandiose name of the Yee Hua Pill King’s legacy! But now, Chen Fei’s overbearing, martial methods of slaughter directly shocked their minds, making them completely wake up.

Someone might dare to try to snatch such a heavenly legacy of an Alchemist from Chen Fei’s hands, but that someone would absolutely not be them! Because the power Chen Fei had just displayed was enough to rival the Peak of Great Heaven Rank. To subdue such a person, if a king of the Mystic Heaven Position realm did not personally take action, who among the others could possibly accomplish it!?

Moreover, given the lofty status and noble identity of those peak figures at the level of Mystic Heaven Position kings, this sort of reputation-damaging act of crude seizure and violent robbery was something that, for the vast majority of them, would require serious consideration. The more formidable, the more status and position one possessed, the more one cared about that face of his. Exceptions had always been few.

”Spare you? Sorry, that kind of stupid mistake is something I’m afraid I won’t make a second time. If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being too determined to seek death! It’s not like I never gave you a chance…”

Chen Fei spoke coolly, and then pressed down hard with the palm that was gripping Tu Qianshan’s face. Instantly, with a booming roar of shattering, Tu Qianshan’s body disintegrated in midair! And this time, not even a scream came out. The crowd’s hearts quivered slightly—this guy had truly killed that man from the Dragon King Mansion.

After killing Tu Qianshan, the Five-Colored Spirit General had fled as well. The remaining people from the Dragon King Mansion immediately turned into a swarm of terrified cowards, clutching their heads and scurrying off in all directions. Seeing this, Chen Fei’s eyes merely flickered; then he shook his head and did not continue the pursuit. Instead, he turned around and left.

Strictly speaking, he was not a bloodthirsty man. The reason he had wanted to kill today was simply because these people had arrogantly come to his door looking for trouble. If he didn’t kill, how could his heart feel at ease? And now the core masterminds were dead or had fled. As for these small fry, there was no longer much meaning.

Whether these people lived or died no longer mattered.

”That God of Slaughter has finally left…” Watching Chen Fei drift away, everyone’s hearts trembled violently, residual fear written across their faces. The Dragon King Mansion’s six Great Heaven Rank experts had joined forces to strike, yet now half of them lay dead here, and among them there had even been two of the renowned Five-Colored Spirit General… What had happened today was destined to shake the Qiannan Ancient Kingdom, destined to leave a heavy stroke in future history.

Moreover, not only that—the appearance of the legacy of the Yee Hua Pill King, who had been the number one Alchemist of the Ancient Country four hundred years ago, would likely cause no small number of people and forces to seethe and surge! The upheaval would be immense.

The Pill King’s legacy—this doesn’t have much allure for ordinary Cultivators, but for those formidable King Level Alchemists, or the powers that possess such formidable King Level Alchemists, it is absolutely something enough to drive them mad!

On a battlefield that had lost its protagonists, people left quickly.

...

A few hours later, inside an ordinary mountain outside Earth Martial City.

Qi Xuchong looked at Chen Fei, who seemed as if nothing at all had happened, and sighed with heartfelt admiration, saying, ”Before, I already felt you were a bit of a monster. Now it seems the word ’monster’ might not even be enough to contain you! Those Five-Colored Spirit General plus another person together made a full six Great Heaven Rank experts. That number would be enough even to deal with my Martial Uncle, yet I never expected you…”

”I’m not your Martial Uncle.” Before Qi Xuchong could finish, a faint voice came, and not far away the Ice Demon Marquis, dressed in scholarly robes, stepped out of rippling Void with an expressionless face.

”Uh…” Qi Xuchong froze slightly, then gave a wry smile and said, ”My apologies, Senior Ice Demon Marquis.”

”Senior.” Chen Fei also smiled and lifted his hand toward the Ice Demon Marquis, speaking respectfully.

The Ice Demon Marquis turned his eyes toward Chen Fei, remained silent for a long time, then shook his head and said, ”You no longer need to call me Senior. From now on, we should address each other as equals.”

In the Cultivation World, there’s never been much talk of seniority. It all comes down to fists, to strength. As long as you’re powerful and your fist is big, then even those born a hundred or a thousand years before you can call you brother without any problem at all.

Conversely, if your strength is great and you’re still overly respectful to others, you might not feel anything, but the other party will feel somewhat uncomfortable, ill at ease… just like the attitude of the Ice Demon Marquis right now.

So when Chen Fei heard this, he simply smiled, neither refusing nor acting arrogant. Then he heard the Ice Demon Marquis speak: ”You said before that once you came out of that tomb you’d be able to help my Demon Pet. Now, are you confident?”

”Let’s go.” Chen Fei nodded with a smile. The Fallen Heaven Blood Clan Demon Poison Blood inside the Frost Snow Demon Wolf—truth be told, he’d already had a way to deal with it even before entering the tomb, but the price was a bit too high, a price he was unwilling to pay, so at that time he’d told a small lie.

And now, that little lie naturally no longer needed to exist.

”Really?” At his words, the Ice Demon Marquis’s pupils contracted sharply, then he gave Chen Fei a deep look, joy surfacing on his face as he turned and said, ”Then the sooner the better. Let’s set out now.”

”Alright.” Chen Fei nodded, then followed the Ice Demon Marquis toward his secluded, hidden dwelling place.

Mists coiled, carrying a somewhat hazy, dreamlike feeling. Within the field of vision, a gigantic wolf-shaped beast lay sleeping in a pitch-black, glossy, sinister lake! Wisps of black vapor drifted up, surging into the sky, quite mysterious.

This time, Chen Fei walked directly toward that massive Frost Snow Demon Wolf. At the same time, with a soft puff, a clump of Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart, radiating terrifying high heat, appeared in his hand.

Seeing this scene, sensing the aura of destruction contained within that Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart, the Ice Demon Marquis narrowed his eyes slightly, then shook his head again, his gaze falling on Chen Fei’s back as he muttered, ”Brother Chen, the rest is up to you.”

”…Roar!” Chen Fei’s finger tapped lightly on the Frost Snow Demon Wolf’s enormous body. Instantly, a surge of power entered the wolf’s body, rousing it from its slumber. A chilling, hair-raising roar resounded through heaven and earth, Demon Qi billowing out, extremely frightening.

After sleeping for who knows how many decades, the Frost Snow Demon Wolf finally awoke for the first time.

”You… who are you!?” Upon waking, the Frost Snow Demon Wolf’s enormous pupils immediately focused on the tiny figure before it, and the flame in that figure’s palm gave it a feeling of sheer dread.

The Frost Snow Demon Wolf’s massive body trembled, then it suddenly cried out, ”You… stay away from me!”

It was originally an ice-water attribute Desolate Beast, so naturally it was extremely wary of things like flame! All the more so since it was currently afflicted by the Demon Poison Blood of the Fallen Heaven Blood Clan. If these two threats swept over it together, it feared it would die without even a burial place…
