The group of Angels was chased by the Trifoot Carnivorous Insects and ran everywhere. However, the Trifoot Carnivorous Insects stuck to them and dug into their bodies, eating furiously.
Blood-chilling cries echoed across the lake.
When the cries disappeared, all of the Angels had been eaten by the Trifoot Carnivorous Insects.
Whoos.h.!.+
A dozen Spiritual Power clones flew out of Zhang Ruochen. They collected the saint weapons and storage containers left behind by the Angels.
They were all good things that could be sold for saint stones.
The demon rat laughed loudly. “Lord Blackie and Lord Chen are so powerful. You could kill 16 Heaven Field figures so easily. These tactics, these skills, I’m so impressed… Lord Chen, what are you—”
A Spiritual Power clone picked up the corpse in the lake that had been cut into six pieces and brought it before Zhang Ruochen.
He placed a finger on the unharmed head and started investigating. “The Sea of Qi wasn’t destroyed and his saint soul was preserved. He hasn’t died completely. There might still be hope.”
This broken corpse was the Kunlun’s Field cultivator just killed by the sixth step Saint King.
However, this guy was quite impressive. He’d gotten hit by a sixth step Saint King’s sword technique, but it had missed his Sea of Qi and he’d saved his saint soul.
This was the only way he could have a chance of coming back to life.
Zhang Ruochen released his Spiritual Power to put the broken pieces together. Then he took out a green lotus.
It was even greener than jade and shone with green light.
The greenness contained powerful Vitality Qi and wrapped around the six pieces.
A moment later, the pieces connected as one. The vitality grew stronger and stronger. Blood started flowing, the eyes opened, and the body walked out of the light.
This half-step Saint King was a regional king of the imperial court. Even though his body had been cut apart, his saint soul had stayed awake. He’d thought that he would die soon and didn’t imagine that Zhang Ruochen would save him.
In the Tianluo Dojo, the regional kings had all bullied Zhang Ruochen, saying he was a traitor and didn’t qualify to enter Kunlun’s Field. Now, he felt unspeakable guilt.
How could the Kunlun’s Field’s traitor save him?
Zhang Ruochen’s generosity made him feel very insignificant.
“Thank you.” He bowed to Zhang Ruochen, no longer feeling disdain or animosity. Instead, he was impressed.
From now on, if anyone dared to say that Zhang Ruochen was a traitor, he would be the first to beat them up.
Zhang Ruochen studied the green lotus with suspicion.
Earlier, when he’d activated the lotus, he’d felt subtle strange tremors from the bottom of the lake.
Those tremors disappeared instantly.
“Is it my imagination?”
He released his Spiritual Power to check under the lake and didn’t find anything.
Whoos.h.!.+
There was wind.
The Thousand Star Maiden, dressed as a man, appeared above his head and said, “I’ve already used my Origin Eyes to check. One-fourth of all Saint Kings from Heaven Field in the Truth Heavenly Domain are inside the enchantment. Even if you go, you won’t be able to save them. Instead, you’ll kill yourself too.”
“I don’t think this is any of your business,” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Thousand Star Maiden didn’t know why she’d come to stop this annoying man. She just felt that she would be unhappy if he died here. Instead, she would feel like something was missing.
Perhaps, it was because Zhang Ruochen was the first person in the same realm that made her feel a sense of failure.
Even if Zhang Ruochen had to lose or die, he had to lose by her hand, die under her sword.
Lifting her chin, the Thousand Star Maiden said, “I wouldn’t watch anything kill itself, not even a dog, let alone a human like you. Of course, if you insist on it, give me that thing first. Otherwise, if you die and it gets into the hands of Heaven Field, it’ll be troublesome for me.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know if she meant the marriage letter or the Mysteries of Truth.
If it was the marriage letter, then Zhang Ruochen had really considered giving it to her. After all, he didn’t have much confidence in this battle either. As for the Mysteries of Truth, he wouldn’t hand them over even if he died.
Blackie, the Amazing Little Taoist, and Ye Honglei all stared at Zhang Ruochen, waiting for his decision.
Chi Wansui’s arms were both disabled. He stood on the lake surface, staring blankly at the Xumi Dojo formed by the illusion. He seemed to be able to see through it to the Kunlun’s Field cultivators inside. They must be suppressed mercilessly by the Heaven Field now and unable to be saved.
His lips kept twitching as his inner heart became embattled.
