Chapter 58 – Eight ProctorsTranslated by:Edited by:TLCed by: OMA

Lingxi’s appearance had caused Bai Sheng and Founder Yang’s battle to come to a halt.

The moment Lingxi disappeared, both of them held Long Chen in a different light than before.

If one were to say that previously they only approved of Long Chen’s talent, now they were more curious about his mysteries and even somewhat impressed.

Lingxi had once appeared during the intra-family compet.i.tion but Founder Yang never thought that this mysterious item could actually be that powerful. He blankly looked at Long Chen and felt extreme pride and satisfaction.

“Having such a grandson like this in my life, even if I, Yang Cangqiong, were to die today, I will die without regrets. However, Xueqing and the rest don’t deserve to die at all……”

To Bai Sheng, what had happened was obviously not a good thing at all.

He was not feeling confident right now so he hurriedly looked at Xue Yuanzi and said: “Brother Xue Yuanzi…….”

Xue Yuanzi remained motionless and no one knew what he was doing at this moment. However, seeing no signs of injuries on his body, Bai Sheng only thought that he was somewhat curious due to Lingxi’s appearance.

Therefore, Bai Sheng continued and said: “Brother Xue Yuanzi, I think that we can discuss this. I, Bai Sheng, am willing to still honour our agreement of giving you one Soul Diffusion Fruit. If you have an interest towards beauties, I think our Bai Family women wouldn’t be inferior to those in the Yang Family? Elder Brother, you don’t have to mind about this wilting flower Yang Xueqing. As for the genius Long Chen, he hates you to the core. No matter how you nurture him, he will only backstab you in the end……”

At that point, Founder Yang frowned even harder. Seeing that Xue Yuanzi did not refuse his suggestion, Bai Sheng gave another provocative look at Founder Yang.

“It looks like the heavens want to wipe my Yang Family. What a pity for Long Chen, he is only sixteen……”

Founder Yang inhaled deeply.

He looked at Xue Yuanzi who was not moving and back to Long Chen. Thinking of the power disparity between the both of them he knew that there was not much hope anymore.

“Earlier, that mysterious girl who appeared in front of Long Chen seemed to have used a very powerful sword technique. Unfortunately, it seems to have no effect against Xue Yuanzi……”

Founder Yang was not clear about the current situation.

Xue Yuanzi looked to be fine and seemed to have been moved by Bai Sheng’s words. Naturally, Bai Sheng turned smug and looked towards Long Chen and Founder Yang, saying: “If Brother Xue Yuanzi agrees to my suggestion, I request of you to kill this kid……Huh?”

Right at this moment, Bai Sheng suddenly saw a drop of fresh blood falling from between Xue Yuanzi’s brows. As he looked closer, he noticed an extremely fine wound in between them as well as another drop of blood coming from the back of Xue Yuanzi’s head.

Bai Sheng was so startled that he was momentarily rendered speechless.

The situation right now was obvious. The reason why Xue Yuanzi did not speak was not because he was unwilling too, but because a hole had already bore through his head. Although the wound was extremely tiny, it clearly could take a person’s life away!

Xue Yuanzi, dead?

An unthinkable thought surfaced in Bai Sheng’s mind while Xue Yuanzi’s corpse crashed onto the floor.

Long Chen had discovered long ago that Xue Yuanzi’s body was devoid of life. Seeing him crashing to the floor, Long Chen was in extreme awe of Lingxi’s strength and mystery and was also grateful.

“I’m afraid that Lingxi’s background, including the power behind it, is extremely immense……”

Long Chen looked at Bai Sheng and saw that he was still in shock from Xue Yuanzi’s death. When he saw Long Chen he shook his head, saying: “This can’t be! Xue Yuanzi is an expert of the Human Dan Realm, how could he been beaten by you guys?! Even if it was that mysterious girl, this is impossible……”

Seeing Xue Yuanzi’s corpse, he suddenly thought of something and was extremely elated. He laughed and said to Long Chen and Founder Yang: “Now that Xue Yuanzi is dead, your Yang Family will definitely die. Xue Yuanzi is one of the eight proctors of the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect!”

Long Chen did not expect Xue Yuanzi to have such a high position inside the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect. However, now that things had already turned out this way, he could only accept his fate!

“Crimson Blood Sacred Sect is a thing of the future, right now the more important task is to kill these two vermin of the Bai Family!”

Right now, Founder Yang had also recovered from the shock over Xue Yuanzi’s death. He knew how horrifying the consequences would be from killing someone from the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect but since the deed had already been done, the task at hand was more important. They needed to save Yang Xueqing, kill the Bai Brothers, and obtain the Soul Diffusion Fruits!

Looking at that youth, Founder Yang once again thought of him from a month ago. He remembered when the enormous improvement in Long Chen’s progress had caught him unprepared.

“Chen Er, the joy that you bring me is more than just ‘good’. Each time you have been in a crisis, you have tried your best. You are basically the saviour of our Yang Family! This grace, how can this old geezer ever repay it?”
