Chapter 294: 276 Chapter Mysterious Huang Qingling

The Zhang Family Patriarch placed his palm on top of Zhang Wu’s head, and then countless thin threads extended from his hand, burrowing into Zhang Wu’s body.

Zhang Wu instantly shuddered, followed by an onslaught of intense pain.

Zhang Wu couldn’t help but let out a wretched scream.

“Ah…”

Meanwhile, the Zhang Family Patriarch consoled him on the side:

“Little Wu, it’ll be over soon…”

“Don’t worry, the pain will pass quickly.”

As Zhang Wu’s agonized cries echoed, the Zhang Family Patriarch continuously offered comfort, but paired with his demonic qi-filled appearance, this consolation seemed very sinister.

Outside, Elder Bai and Elder Yu looked at Zhang Wu inside and then said with a face full of regret:

“Zhang Wu, you have succumbed to the demon, why torment yourself?”

Zhang Wu’s face was twisted in pain, yet he still clenched his teeth tightly and said with difficulty:

“Without the master, I would have died in that filthy ditch hundreds of years ago.”

“My life was given by the master, and now I return it to the master.”

“I… do not regret!”

Having said this, the severe pain became too much for Zhang Wu to bear.

“Ah…”

Involuntarily, he let out a blood-curdling scream, and at that moment, all the vital blood in his body gushed into the body of the Zhang Family Patriarch as if being poured back in.

The injuries on the Zhang Family Patriarch’s body were healing at an extremely fast rate.

Even the demonic qi on his body was becoming more and more vigorous.

In contrast, Zhang Wu’s figure became more and more emaciated, his veins bulging on his body, almost turning into a mummified corpse.

“Ah…”

“Master, I beg you… please make it quick!”

Zhang Wu finally could not endure anymore and urgently pleaded with the Zhang Family Patriarch.

“Alright…”

“Little Wu, may you have a good journey. If there’s an afterlife, let me serve you.”

As the Zhang Family Patriarch’s words fell, he exerted strength, and those bloodlines immediately swelled to the thickness of fingers.

Then, with a fierce inhalation…

Zhang Wu’s vital blood was completely drained from his body.

And Zhang Wu.

Turned into a dried-up corpse, skin and bones.

The thin threads in the Zhang Family Patriarch’s hands retracted, and Zhang Wu’s corpse fell from mid-air.

Having absorbed Zhang Wu completely, the Zhang Family Patriarch then closed his eyes, allowing the increasingly dense demonic qi to swirl around him.

And the black barrier became even more solidified.

Elder Bai and Elder Yu tried several times again, but even with their combined strength, they couldn’t break through.

Seeing this, both felt a bad omen.

Now, with their powers combined, they couldn’t break the shield; they feared that once he emerged, none of them would be able to escape.

Therefore.

Elder Bai and Elder Yu exchanged a glance, understanding each other’s thoughts.

“Retreat!”

After saying this, they both flew towards Lin Jing and the others.

However, just at that moment.

A powerful surge of demonic qi burst forth, instantly enveloping the entire area.

Following that, the aura of the Golden Core Peak cultivation also rose at this time.

“Golden Core Peak…”

A chilling voice sounded, and the Zhang Family Patriarch had indeed successfully broken through.

“This feeling, it’s wonderful!”

“None of you will escape; you will all be nourishment for my advancement to the Nascent Soul Stage.”
