Chapter 524 - 524 The Legendary Pureblood
524 The Legendary Pureblood
The golden flame, pulsating with a powerful life force, allowed the flirtatious woman to make an immediate judgment — she couldn’t take it head-on.
Frantically, she flapped her wings and attempted to evade. But Qin Huai was too quick, his assault came without delay. The golden flames exploded right before the woman’s eyes.
The northern clan’s leader felt warmth seep into her being, as though something had penetrated her body. This entity was massive, however, and instantly tore through her.
She stiffly lowered her gaze to the golden flames consuming her body, gnawing at her flesh and blood bit by bit. No matter how desperately she tried, the golden flame couldn’t be extinguished.
“It’s useless. I kindled this flame with my life force,” Qin Huai’s voice echoed in the woman’s ears. It was akin to a demon’s whisper, causing her spirit to plummet instantly. Being at the receiving end, how could she not feel the futility of escaping this power?
Furthermore, that golden flame was extraordinarily sharp. In a fleeting moment, her body was cleaved in half. Now, only half of her body remained, and she was barely managing to stay afloat by fluttering her wings.
“When did it start…” the woman lamented, her tone bitter. Even on the brink of death, she maintained an inexplicable grace. Unfortunately, Qin Huai could afford no mercy.
“I never engage in pointless chat with my enemies,” he stated calmly. “If you do, you better tread carefully.”
“I’ve learned my lesson,” the woman replied, her smile growing more desolate. “I was overly arrogant. I assumed that with our numbers and your reluctance to venture out, no matter how strong you were, you wouldn’t break through our defenses.”
“I didn’t anticipate…” she trailed off. She hadn’t expected Qin Huai to dare to rush to her side alone, in the face of her impressive troop arrangement. Moreover, his killing power was shockingly strong.
“I refuse to accept this!” she yelled. “I am the leader of the northern clan, a top-tier expert at the fifth-level visceral prefecture realm. How could I meet such a fate?” She hadn’t even unleashed her full strength, and there were numerous trump cards she hadn’t yet played.
Bang!
A hand thrust through the woman’s heart once again. A mix of white and blood gushed from the wound before being fully consumed by the golden flames. It was the final blow that led to her downfall.
The moment Qin Huai retracted his arm, the woman could no longer withstand the sight of her remaining half-body devoured by the golden flames with a resounding explosion. From the instant Qin Huai initiated his attack to the moment the woman was wholly engulfed by the golden flames, mere moments had passed.
The surrounding northern clan experts seemed as if frozen in time, their expressions vacant as they took in the horrific scene.
“The clan leader… is our leader dead?” the trembling members of the northern clan murmured, disbelief shrouding their features. “How is that possible? She’s the pride of our northern clan!”
Their cries reverberated throughout the area. As they stared at the last shimmering vestiges of the golden flames, their eyes filled with astonishment.
Most of them temporarily lost control of their faculties. The notion of attacking Qin Huai, who they had surrounded, didn’t even cross their minds.
“Kill this wretch! Avenge our leader!” a few of them bellowed. These were all experts in the visceral prefecture realm, the first to recover and launch themselves at Qin Huai.
“Block his escape! Don’t let him get away!” some visceral prefecture realm experts quickly decided, positioning themselves at Qin Huai’s rear.
However, Qin Huai had no plans to flee. His wings quivered, and in an instant, his figure emerged amongst the multitude of paralyzed Kun Peng demons. His astonishing speed left these mixed-blood demons unable to react at all.
Qin Huai’s eyes radiated a brilliant white light. The spectacular display of imperial power descended upon them like an enormous mountain.
Boom!
All the demons in the sky were shaken, even those at the fifth-level bone pattern realm staggered, almost losing control and plummeting through the air.
However, those who had recently attained the bone pattern realm weren’t as lucky. An unusual spectacle unfolded above the blood sea as hundreds of demons fell towards it, like kites severed from their strings.
“Those at the visceral prefecture realm, muster your strength!” The ones hoping to cut off Qin Huai’s escape route were flabbergasted at the sight.
They hastily advanced towards Qin Huai. They hadn’t anticipated that this bold fellow wouldn’t retreat after slaying their clan leader. Instead, he brazenly charged into their ranks. Wasn’t he willingly walking into a trap?
But now, they could only roar helplessly as they watched their kin falling into the blood sea like powerless arrows. This baffling event echoed the demise of their clan leader.
“How can it be? How can a single person’s aura be so strong…?”
“Even if it’s the king’s force, this shouldn’t be possible. We are the Kun Peng clan.”
Many of the visceral prefecture realm experts were confused. Only when they approached Qin Huai did they feel the suffocating sensation emanating from the depths of their bloodline.
“Those wings?” They glanced at each other, taken aback.
Even though the flames blazed fiercely, as members of the Kun Peng clan, they could still discern the details of Qin Huai’s wings from the patterns beneath the flames.
“Pureblood! He’s of the legendary pure bloodline!”
Someone of pure blood was the aspiration of all Kun Peng demons because the purer the bloodline, the greater the talent, and consequently, the stronger the power.
The Kun Peng clansmen had spent thousands of years researching how to purify their bloodline. Yet, this person before them was the pure-blooded species they had dreamt of.
