Chapter 332.3 (2/2)
Qu Shun’s eyes turned solemn.
However clever he might be, he would never figure out that whatever Ning Fan had done to contend for the key all the way was just for show.
Ning Fan had already gotten the Key of the Star Palace long before coming to the Third World.
Within the snow valley which were covered with wolf carcasses, there were only seven Divine Transformation Realm cultivators from the Demon World, seven Divine Transformation Realm experts from the White Devil Sect including Lin Su and a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who were still alive. The others had already perished during the battle.
A moment ago, both parties were still fighting alongside each other and saw the wolves as their enemies. But at the moment when the two experts from the White Devil Sect returned, another fight immediately began between the two groups.
“Junior! We’ve obtained the key! Let’s go now!” The White Devil Sect experts shouted hastily at Lin Su.
“Zhao Ge! Do it! Kill the members of the White Devil Sect!” Qu Shun’s eyes were cold and indifferent as he ordered one of his subordinates.
Zhao Ge and Lin Su’s expressions immediately changed upon hearing Qu Shun’s words. None of them were fools. Since the White Devil Sect had seized the key, then their enemy was no longer Ning Fan or the wolf demons but the White Devil Sect itself!
“Kill!”
Lu Jiefen’s wielded his Purple Yang Mirror and blocked two the White Devil Sect experts’ escape route for. Qu Shun took this opportunity and took out a golden palm-leaf fan. With just a single flap, a column of golden flames was shot out vigorously.
From the bottom of their hearts, the two elderly experts knew that it would be hard for them to keep the key for themselves if they don’t fight with Lu Jiefen and others until they die.
“Humph! You are just courting death to have become enemies of our sect, the White Devil Sect!”
“So what if you guys are from the White Devil Sect? We are demons and you all are humans. Naturally, you are our enemies. What can others do to us for killing both of you?! Hand over the ice egg of the Wolf King and everything can still be forgiven!” Lu Jiefen shouted with wrath.
“Don’t even think that’s possible!” The two White Devil Sect experts sneered coldly.
Thus, another clash began!
However, nobody noticed that there was a ray of light that flashed past outside the snow valley with a burly man who was draped in a long cloak appearing at the peak of a star hill. He lowered his cold-piercing eyes and looked attentively at the fight which had just started.
“The demon race… The White Devil Sect…”
No one knew his presence.
However, when he heard of the word ‘key’, his eyes lit up with joy.
“That’s it! The Key of the Star Palace! If I get the key, then I would obtain the emperor’s star! Then, that lowly slave woman would surely come looking for me to obtain that emperor’s star. I would then kill her! I have plenty of ways to end her life in mind!”
The burly man grinned sinisterly. Standing at the top of the star mountain while bathing in the icy snow, he then made a stomp on the ground!
That move he made caused the hollow space within the vicinity of one hundred thousand li* (500 m per li) to be crushed entirely!
The experts of the two parties who were engaging each other just now were abnormally fearful at the same time.
“A Void Refinement Realm expert! Why is there a Void Refinement Realm expert here?”
“Crushing the hollow space within one hundred thousand li* (500 m per li) with just a single step! I’m afraid not even a Mid Void Refinement Realm can compare to that level of strength… That person must be at the Late Void Refinement Realm!”
The atmosphere was filled with exclamations of fright and cries. However, at the next moment, all of them were drowned by a domineering voice.
“Give me the key and I shall kill all of you with your corpse intact.”
The cloaked burly man said with a menacing tone.
“That friend over there, we are from the White Devil Sect…” Lin Su’s eyes glinted with surprise. Facing that burly man in front of him, he had no courage to resist him at all.
The only thing that he could do was to declare his identity in order to threaten him.
“Who is your friend?!”
The burly man then made another stomp. Without showing any signs, pieces of jet-black knives condensed from the power of the void shot towards Lin Su, shredding him into pieces.
In an instant, Lin Su’s life was snuffed out!
The two elderly men were both frightened and angered at the same time. However, that expression on their faces turned into terror at the next moment.
It was because the burly man who was standing a certain distance away had his gaze fixed on both of them.
“Give me the key!”
Well, it was proven that a loss might not necessarily be a bad thing but a blessing in disguise.
Keeping Tan Lang’s demon egg for oneself might not necessarily be a good thing as well…
