Chapter 1098: Chapter 1097: The Star Body Named Zhao Wuji

[During this period, the plot got stuck. I’ve been writing until late at night every day, and it’s really exhausting. Could you please introduce our work to more friends and subscribe? Thank you, brothers and sisters!]

The ruthless child was stunned when he heard what the old man from Devouring Sky Village said. He then looked coldly at the old man and said, ”You want to kill me?”

”Hmph, you were raised by our Devouring Sky Village. Without us, you would have died long ago, and now you want to leave Devouring Sky Village and betray us. I can only kill you here!” the old man from Devouring Sky Village coldly snorted.

The ruthless child indeed did not expect that after he left Desolate Stone Village, feeling extreme hatred towards Fengchan and the people of Desolate Stone Village, vowing to cultivate diligently and fully unleash his Star Body’s Bloodline Power, he did not expect that he merely planned to leave Devouring Sky Village to find a more suitable place for cultivation. He wanted to fully cultivate himself and when he truly became powerful, to learn from Desolate Stone Village and defeat Fengchan. Who knew, Fengchan did not kill him, but the old man of Devouring Sky Village intended to kill him. His own people wanted to kill him?

”I am not betraying Devouring Sky Village, it’s just that Devouring Sky Village is no longer suitable for my cultivation. I need experience and opportunities, and I must venture outside.” The ruthless child said coldly.

”Venturing outside? Ridiculous. Do you think I can believe that you will come back after leaving Devouring Sky Village? For ten years, Devouring Sky Village has spent so much effort and resources on cultivating you. All the best conditions for cultivation were created for you. Now that you are strong, you say you want to leave. How can it be so easy?” the ruthless old man of Devouring Sky Village said, with Martial Arts True Qi surging in his palms.

”Is that so? Devouring Sky Village just wants to turn me into a killing machine, not allowing me any independent thought. Is this cultivation? They are just using my Bloodline Power to turn me into a walking corpse!” The ruthless child said calmly as if recalling something.

The old man of Devouring Sky Village glared fiercely at the ruthless child, frowning slightly. This ruthless child already showed signs of not obeying them. If he really escapes, or if he is killed by them, it would be a huge loss for Devouring Sky Village. The strongest Bloodline Power of the Human Clan does not easily emerge. It may not appear even in millions of years. It requires awakening the deep-seated power in the blood to make it possible. Perhaps, in this era, in this Martial Arts World, the only Star Body Bloodline inheritance is in this ruthless child. Killing him would be a real shame. Otherwise, with the ruthless nature of the old man from Devouring Sky Village, he would have taken action long ago and not said so much.

”So what? If it weren’t for Devouring Sky Village, you would’ve died long ago. Do you think you could have lived till now?” the old man from Devouring Sky Village sneered.

”So over the years, you have only made me keep killing and killing, turning me into your killing machine, not allowing my own thoughts and opinions, not even giving me a name...” The ruthless child said coldly.

”You are just a killing machine, a mere assassin raised by our Devouring Sky Village. Whether you have a name or not is insignificant...”

Swish!

Suddenly, just as the old man of Devouring Sky Village was speaking, the ruthless child disappeared from the spot in an instant, his speed reaching an extreme, and he punched towards the old man, stopping him from continuing his words.

Boom!

With a loud bang, although the old man of Devouring Sky Village had Early-stage Martial Saint cultivation, when faced with the ruthless child’s punch, he quickly defended, but he was still suppressed by the ruthless child. The old man was taken aback, wanting to mobilize the Martial Arts True Qi within him to quickly counterattack and kill the ruthless child. However, he felt no trace of Martial Arts True Qi within him. His expression changed instantly as he realized, being suppressed by Ye Tianchen with the ”Holy Heaven Prison” for so long, he was not only severely injured, but the Martial Arts True Qi within him had dried up. Now, hunting down the ruthless child was a real life-threatening danger to him.

”You... your injuries have already healed?” The old man from Devouring Sky Village discovered something unbelievable. Less than an hour ago, the injuries on the ruthless child’s body had completely healed, and he appeared unscathed.

”The power of the Star Body far exceeds what you can imagine. Devouring Sky Village is not worthy of possessing my power. I am destined to leave my mark in this Martial Arts World. When I am truly powerful, I will avenge all grudges with blood!” The ruthless child said coldly.

The old man of Devouring Sky Village was indeed shocked. If Ye Tianchen were here, he would be equally shocked. The ruthless child had fought a fierce battle with Fengchan that lasted over an hour, both sides suffering serious injuries. Though eventually defeated by Fengchan, both sustained similar wounds. Both were equally powerful children, requiring at least three months for Fengchan’s injuries to heal. Yet, the ruthless child, within less than an hour of leaving Desolate Stone Village, had no trace of any injury inside or outside his body. What an astounding healing ability is this? Is this another mysterious bloodline power of the Star Body? It is truly powerful and astounding.

”You little bastard, you have some strength. Just because you can use some of the Star Body’s Bloodline Power, you dare to disregard me. You are asking for death!” The old man of Devouring Sky Village spoke while desperately trying to activate the Martial Arts True Power within him to retaliate. However, he found himself firmly suppressed by the ruthless child’s fist strength.

”I advise you not to move recklessly. Your injuries are too severe, and your Martial Arts True Qi is exhausted. Given the current situation, if I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as flipping my hand. I merely wish to tell you that the power of the Star is infinite and endlessly mysterious, difficult to fully explore. I have been in the Devouring Sky Village for ten years and have done many things for it, killed many people. Moreover, the Devouring Sky Village receiving support from that mysterious existence is not unrelated to me. That is enough...” the ruthless child said indifferently.

”You... ungrateful wretch, enough? If it weren’t for us saving you, you’d have died long ago. How would you have the chance to stand here talking to me today?” the old man from Devouring Sky Village said fiercely.

Boom!

With a loud boom, the eyes of the ruthless child were blood-red, revealing a murderous intent. The power in his fist increased, shockingly knocking the old man from Devouring Sky Village to his knees. What immense strength is this? Even though this old man from Devouring Sky Village had been severely wounded by Ye Tianchen and couldn’t display the formidable power of an Early-stage Martial Saint, he was still a strong expert of the Martial Saint Realm. Yet now, he was being subdued by this ruthless child, clearly demonstrating the extraordinary might of the Star Body.

”You...” The old man from Devouring Sky Village wanted to resist, but found himself firmly suppressed, unable to move, and was exceedingly surprised.

”Ungrateful? Then let me tell you, I’ve given myself a name. My name is Zhao—Wu—ji.” The ruthless child said calmly, articulating each word clearly.

”You... could it be...” The old man from Devouring Sky Village was taken aback, his face changing completely, as if he had a foreboding of his impending death.

The ruthless child had already chosen a name for himself, Zhao Wuji. This was not an arbitrary choice. Rather, after learning certain truths about his past, he chose such a name for himself.

”Do you think I know nothing? Then let me, Zhao Wuji, tell you. When I was less than half a year old, your people from the Devouring Sky Village discovered me and my bloodline constitution. From the very beginning, you tried to lure my parents into handing me over to your village for upbringing. Naturally, my parents couldn’t bear to let me go. Who would have thought you would kill everyone in my family overnight and take me away... All these years, I have never forgotten. Only because the Devouring Sky Village is where I grew up did I want to kill you all without destroying the place. Otherwise, I would have acted long ago!” Zhao Wuji said viciously.

”You... you’ve known all along, yet never showed it. A ten-year-old brat with such deep scheming, truly vicious!” The old man from Devouring Sky Village couldn’t help but say.

”Is that so? Isn’t it all thanks to you for nurturing and teaching me from a young age? I should really thank you!” Zhao Wuji said, his eyes revealing a murderous intent.

”You little brat, you’re still too green!”

Bang! Dong!

Suddenly, the old man from Devouring Sky Village gathered all his Martial Arts True Qi and charged out wildly, forcibly shaking off the suppressive power of the ruthless child Zhao Wuji. At the same time, the old man leaped up, slapping down towards Zhao Wuji’s forehead, intending to eliminate him.

Zhao Wuji, knowing the events of the past, is determined to exact vengeance on the entire Devouring Sky Village sooner or later. He hasn’t acted until now simply because he wasn’t powerful enough yet, not having fully unleashed the bloodline power of the Star Body. Therefore, regardless, this old man from Devouring Sky Village is eager to kill Zhao Wuji.

Bang!

The ruthless child Zhao Wuji saw the old man from Devouring Sky Village striking towards his forehead and simply smiled coldly. He now possessed absolute confidence that killing this old man would be as easy as flipping his hand. This old man had already been severely wounded by Ye Tianchen and couldn’t display the formidable power of the Martial Saint Realm. With the bloodline power that Zhao Wuji’s Star Body could now unleash, shock-killing this old man was no hard task.

Zhao Wuji directly unleashed a punch, mingled with some Star Power that he had attracted and hadn’t fully used yet during his confrontation with Feng Chan. A mighty force erupted, colliding against the strike of the ruthless old man from Devouring Sky Village, forcefully blasting the old man away...(To be continued.
