My Master Knows It All

Had he directly self-destructed, he would undoubtedly have been detected.

With Jue Ying’s cultivation base at the Earth Immortal Realm, he was fully capable of suppressing him and preventing the self-destruction.

However, now that he had bought himself enough time, he might have prepared everything.

If he was ready to self-destruct, no one could suppress him in that final moment!

“Not good, retreat quickly!”

Jue Ying extended his hand, grabbed Cao Zhen and Lan Pili, and immediately flew towards the distance.

Although the Corpse General was no match for him, that was only because he had become an Earth Immortal.

When the Corpse General had first emerged from his coffin, he had sensed its strength, which was at least at the level of Golden Core.

And not just any Golden Core, but at least the fourth or fifth level of Golden Core.

With such power at the Corpse General’s disposal, even he had to be cautious, let alone considering that Cao Zhen and Lan Pili were also nearby.

Jue Ying was known as such because his greatest skill was speed.

In the blink of an eye, he had already pulled Cao Zhen and Lan Pili, exiting the small town.

Almost at the next moment, a thunderous boom erupted violently from within the town.

In the center of the town, the Corpse General’s body exploded violently, and in an instant, endless Death Aura spread out like an unbounded galaxy, dramatically diffusing in all directions.

Suddenly, the ground shook, and the heavens and earth trembled.

Amid the booming sound, houses within the town collapsed one after another, rolling dust and debris rising like a sandstorm under the impact of the Corpse General’s self-destruction, with countless blood mists rising with the dust, shooting straight up to the sky.

The townspeople!

“They…

They’re all dead!” Jue Ying painfully closed his eyes.

He was an Immortal, true, and he had not cared much about the lives of mortals before.

But now, with one incident after another occurring, his mentality had imperceptibly shifted.

Besides, these Corpse Generals had emerged right under his watch, and he had turned a blind eye to let them out.

Yet, when he had already found them, when he had the power to kill the Corpse General outright, he let it self-destruct due to his negligence!

It was all because of him!

Because of him, the entire town’s population had died!

He had promised, he had guaranteed the safety of the town’s people!

Cao Zhen looked at the town, almost leveled to the ground by the Corpse General’s self-destruction, and let out a long sigh, his face full of self-blame.

His reaction had been too slow.

If he had responded quicker, if he had warned Jue Ying earlier, this tragedy would not have happened.

These were the people of a town, they had done nothing wrong.

They were merely living in their homeland, and they didn’t even know why they had died.

They…

“Resentment…”

Cao Zhen, sensing the resentment emanating from the town, his expression suddenly changed: “Not good, such intense resentment.

Although due to our arrival, they didn’t use their methods to kill all the people in the town, didn’t take them away for sacrifice, or anything like that.

But the residents of this town have all died, and significant resentment has been generated.

If the inhabitants of the nearby towns are killed in the same way, they don’t need to take these villagers away for sacrifice, they can still set up that vicious Formation!

Quick, check the nearby towns!”

In the distance, waves of chilling Evil Qi surged up to the heavens.

At a glance, this Evil Qi was exploding from three different directions.

“Corpse Generals, it’s those three Corpse Generals, they’ve made their move together!

They seem to have guessed that we would intervene, or just as a precaution, they plan to slay all the villagers in the nearby towns.

In doing so, they can set up that vicious Formation without needing to sacrifice the villagers!”

As Cao Zhen finished speaking, Jue Ying suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Following that, from behind him, multiple flying swords shot out rapidly.

Not the Wooden Swords he had fought with before, but real flying swords!

One after another, the flying swords shot out at high speed.

An Earth Immortal could execute a kill from a thousand miles away!

Slaying enemies with flying swords was faster than rushing over themselves.

He was going to cut down all these Corpse Generals and Zombie Soldiers!

Suddenly, just as the flying swords had been launched, loud booms came from the places where Evil Qi had surged.

From afar, Cao Zhen could even see black Death Aura shooting up into the sky in the distant lands.

Three consecutive booms merged into a continuous cacophony, causing the skies around to tremble insanely.

“Self-destructed, those three Corpse Generals, they’ve all self-destructed!”

Lan Pili looked towards the distance in shock.

“Those three Corpse Generals must have known that an Earth Immortal was acting against them and, realizing they were no match, chose to self-destruct.

They actually made such a decisive move!”

Four Corpse Generals self-destructed in succession in different places.

Instantly, the whole region trembled in madness, and the ground in the distance kept bursting apart.

Tremendous Demonic Qi rose to the sky!

“Demonic Qi?”

“Why is there such Demonic Qi, filled with the scent of blood?”

Cao Zhen and Lan Pili, feeling the aura from afar, exchanged looks.

Suddenly, they remembered the Blood River they had encountered in Yu Min Town.

This aura, wasn’t it similar to that of the Blood River?

“Not good!”

Jue Ying suddenly put the pieces together, his face becoming extremely grim: “In that place, there is a Blood River being suppressed.
