Diana could sense the invisible force restraining her, preventing her from moving even a single finger. She could only glare while wearing a furious expression.

Seeing Diana’s furious expression, the feminine-looking young man smiled and said, “Wait till you follow me back. You’ll know then just how foolish your fury is. You’ll be eternally grateful that I’ve brought you to heaven.”

As he spoke, he lifted Diana’s neck and released the constraint on her mouth.

Diana did not shout. She knew that this person was able to kill two Knights instantly, and within such close proximity, he was not someone she could go against. She merely glared at the feminine-looking young man and said, “This is the Great Western City. You won’t be able to escape.”

“Hehe, Great Western City… Hehe, right now, even the strongest people in the city have trouble fending for their own lives.”

As he spoke, flames soared up into the sky from the direction of the Governor’s manor. It turned a large piece of the sky into a scarlet color. Diana looked at the red light in astonishment, and the feminine-looking young man laughed. “Fang Xingjian has really offended many people. However, this has saved me from a lot of trouble.”

Diana said furiously, “What on earth do you want?”

“What do I want? Hehe, you’ll know very soon.”

Just then, two streams of white lines passed through the sky. The clashing sounds of powerful air currents seemed like a myriad of thunderous rumbles, causing one to be on tenterhooks.

The feminine-looking young man looked at the sky in great surprise. Then at the next moment, he noticed that sand was gathering and dashing out into the sky. It turned into a whirlwind of sand and gave chase in the direction where the white lines had disappeared.

“Young Lord,” an old steward said as he appeared from behind the feminine-looking young man. He looked at the sand in the air and said, “They’re people from the Sand Country. And the thing from earlier…”

“Mmm.” A hint of excitement flashed in the eyes of the feminine-looking young man. “Fang Xingjian… Hehehehe, to think that someone has the same thoughts as us, and they’ve really managed to lure him out.”

“Young Lord, then what should we do?”

“Give chase. Don’t let Fang Xingjian be snatched away.” Saying that, the feminine-looking young man knocked out Diana with his palm. Looking at the unconscious golden-haired beauty, he laughed and said, “Wait till I’ve returned after capturing Fang Xingjian, then I’ll come to take you with me.”

At the next moment, the feminine-looking young man and the old steward took a step forward. The entire street was torn into two by violent forces. Under the explosion of pure power, two long rows of afterimages formed, and the two of them dashed out at an extremely wild and fierce speed.

…

Up in the sky, Fang Xingjian’s legs continued to step on the air, creating streams of air currents. The temperature of his body continued to rise, even giving rise to hints of white steam. However, they were very quickly dispersed by strong gales.

After consuming the Divine blood, its essence continued to flow through all of Fang Xingjian’s organs, limbs, and bones. He felt as if his body was like an erupting volcano, and he could no longer control even his limbs.

A terrifying will surged through his blood time and time again, as if wanting to gain control over his body and every single cell within it.

Fang Xingjian could sense that every single cell in his body was trembling. It was as if that terrifying will would modify his body at anytime, completely turning him into another creature altogether.

This was, after all, the blood essence of a Divine level ferocious beast. If its descendant were to consume the blood essence, it would accelerate the rate of their growth and modify their bodies toward becoming a Divine level ferocious beast.

Furthermore, it was because it was intended for the beast’s descendant that it did not hold much aggressiveness, and so Sasa and Fang Xingjian could take it. Otherwise, they would have been killed on the spot by the Divine level prowess.

However, although the Divine blood was already considered to be more mild, even a third tier level 29 Conferred Knight like Sasa would only dare to absorb its prowess a little at a time, slowly digesting the will inside it.

By now, Fang Xingjian had swallowed the entire Divine blood essence entirely. Thus, he could only try hard to suppress the terrifying will that was flowing through his blood. However, he realized the pressure it induced was getting increasingly stronger. He had no choice but to divert even more effort into suppressing the powers which had gone berserk in his body. This caused his battle prowess to plunge rapidly.
