Whoos.h.!.+

Before the thin man could stand up, Zhang Ruochen’s cold and black sword was already at his forehead.

The Pill Spirit King’s beautiful face had a joyful expression. She immediately walked toward Zhang Ruochen. “Seal his cultivation. I have a secret spell to search his memories. I might be able to see who wants to kill me.”

A strange expression appeared in the man’s eyes. Holy Qi spun violently within him.

“No, he wants to deactivate his Sea of Qi and saint source.”

Poof!

Zhang Ruochen stabbed forward, piercing the man’s forehead.

But after doing so, Zhang Ruochen’s blood ran cold.

The man’s Sea of Qi wasn’t under his forehead.

Without hesitation, Zhang Ruochen grabbed the Pill Spirit King and rushed back. He also added Holy Qi into the seventh level PaG.o.da Rune.

The next moment, blinding light shot out of the man’s heart. His body was torn apart instantly, turning into powder. A destructive force also surged out, sweeping into all directions.

Boom!

The Lifeless Blood Prison sealing the room also disappeared when the man died.

The formation runes carved in the walls, floor, and ceiling only held up for an instant. Then the horrible destructive force pulverized the room.

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

The Hundred Flower Palace shook instantly. All the formation runes were activated, and beams of light shot up. A dozen formations appeared on the ground and in the sky, spinning quickly.

Even so, with the esteemed guest room as the center, a ring of a dozen meters was turned into rubble.

The strong cultivators of the Thousand Pistil Field were all alarmed. They hurried over and gasped after seeing the huge ditch.

…

Two hours later

The Pill Spirit King explained what had happened to the people of the Thousand Pistil Field before meeting with Zhang Ruochen in the Swallow Palace Cave.

Zhang Ruochen sat on a stone stool, looking at the seventh level PaG.o.da Rune in his palm. There were seven cracks on it.

One could imagine that this highly expensive rune would shatter completely after another use.

A faint peony fragrance met his nose.

He put the PaG.o.da Rune away and stared at the beautiful female Saint King before him.

The Pill Spirit King smiled and bowed slightly. “Thank you, Lord Ruochen, for saving me twice. I am owing you more and more.”

Since the other recognized him, Zhang Ruochen shook and turned back into his original appearance. “To be honest, you really have to repay me,” he said, sighing. “Last time, I was almost turned into Queen Lian’s Yang drug. This time, I’m even more innocent. I almost died for no reason.”

The Pill Spirit King sat down across from Zhang Ruochen, her b.r.e.a.s.t.s quivering slightly. She stared at him with almond eyes and her bright red lips moved. “How do you want me to repay you?”

Hearing a beautiful woman ask that, any man would have many thoughts.

Zhang Ruochen touched his chin with a finger and stared at the Pill Spirit King’s features with a thoughtful expression.

When the Pill Spirit King grew uncomfortable, he finally said, “I’m interested in the a.s.sa.s.sin Puppets of the Heavenly a.s.sa.s.sination Organization. How about you give me the two a.s.sa.s.sin Puppets that you took?”

The Pill Spirit King was relieved. “I thought you wanted my body,” she said, chuckling. “So, you want the two a.s.sa.s.sin Puppets.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled. “Seems like you’re disappointed.”

“Nonsense.”

The Pill Spirit King grew serious again. She placed the two silver b.a.l.l.s on the stone table.

Just as Zhang Ruochen reached out to take them, she pressed down on the b.a.l.l.s and pulled them back.

Zhang Ruochen frowned. “What do you mean?”

“Third step Saint King Puppet Killers can’t even be bought on the market,” the Pill Spirit King said. “But you can still estimate their price. An a.s.sa.s.sin Puppet of that level would be at least 20 million saint stones.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t deny this. An a.s.sa.s.sin Puppet was indeed worth that price.

“So, I won’t owe you anymore after giving them to you.”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “I feel like two a.s.sa.s.sin Puppets still aren’t as valuable as your life. How about you add something else?”

The Pill Spirit King’s eyes grew resentful. “How can you be so stingy as the leader of a world? Can’t you be more generous before a beauty? Isn’t it better for me to owe you?”
