Chapter 458 Wizard (1/2)
After ending the conversation, Han Ying was done with preparing the goat and they began eating. Shen Lian on the other hand did not consume any food as he could absorb the Qi of vitality of the heaven and earth anytime to replenish his body.
To him, the baby of an infant still possessed some elements of the heavens. Consuming food or anything that has blood would contaminate the body.
Chen Qing and Han Ying found that strange but they were not too surprised as there were too many strange things about Shen Lian. They went to bed after eating and Shen Lian too was not in a hurry to teach them methods of cultivation.
He made the black tiger lead him outwards and gradually entered the state of concentration. He continued to analyze the Qi of vitality of the heaven and earth and the reaction of his body towards it.
His heart was suddenly shaken as a vision flashed through his mind. In a hall under the moonlit sky, an elegant and wealthy woman was decapitated.
Strange laughter started bursting out in the hall as the woman's cranial cavity oozed out a dash of green Qi that was packed into a pouch by a strange person dressed in black robe.
Shen Lian was aware that he was somewhat related to this woman and no doubt this was the Master of the Xi Liang city, also his grandmother.
The strange person obviously possesed special powers and could be considered a cultivator in this world. The green Qi collected by the strange person was probably the condensation of the will of the people of the city.
Looks like the uprising in Xi Liang city was not as simple as it seemed.
The vision tattered and Shen Lian took a deep look at Chen Qing. He closed his eyes and decided to let her have a good sleep tonight.
The strange person in the hall could not sense the gaze of Shen Lian. Or it could be said that not many people in the world would be able to sense Shen Lian's passive gaze.
Shen Lian's divine thoughts were no longer as powerful as it used to be. But it was still at a level that was beyond ordinary living beings. In fact, it was at the highest state of the ordinary realm.
The quality gap was not something the a person of the level of the strange person in black could imagine.
A female general in an armour suit walked in. Her eyebrows were as thick as ink and it was slanted to her temple, giving out a murderous aura. She held on to her sword and said to the strange person in black, ”Wizard, how did it go?”
The female general was the Gao Jie, the head of the Gao family who started the uprising. She was also Xi Liang city's most powerful person.
The wizard replied, ”I have taken the will of the people from her. You can now legitimately take the throne of the city.”
Gao Jie laughed out loud, ”Perfect! I have been waiting for this day since forever.”
”But what about the thing that you promised me?” The wizard stared coldly at her.
Gao Jie felt the chills down her spine and said, ”I was careless and caused Chen Qing to escape. But her prestige was not as established as the old woman. She won't be able to stir any waves.”
The wizard coldly responded, ”I said I wanted the other daughter. Who cares about that woman?”
Gao Jie forced an answer, ”The old woman was well prepared. She has assigned someone to send the girl along with a trade entourage to Da Xia. I was just about to order my subordinate to chase after them.”
Green ghost fires started to light up in the wizard's eyes. It dashed out like two long cables and knocked on Gao Jie's chest and caused it to rip. She was moaning in terrible pain.
”I hate it the most when someone does not deliver what they promised. If you do not find her in a month, I will give you a taste of living hell.”, the wizard replied coldly.
Gao Jie furiously left the hall with the aid of her subordinate. The wizard was not bothered by her furiosity because he was far more superior than a female monkey like her. If she refused to obey, he could just look for another one.
