Chapter 437 - Taking everything (1/2)
”What direction next, Angel?” Wang Ling was ready to leave after getting the mysterious still beating heart, but then the moment he took the first step, he heard someone screaming from behind.
”Die!” The idiot screaming while attempting a scream attack just missed Wang Ling altogether.
”Screaming while trying to sneak in an attack, how amusing. No matter the Era, this kind of thing always happens.” Wang Ling just moved his body to the side like always, and though the idiot followed up by redirecting his sword slash, Wang Ling laughed, ”That's impressive, but, that kind attack results in the divergence of qi. It is slower than the initial attack, and with uneven qi flow doing this will be easy—”
Wang Ling moved his hands, he gathered his qi on his fingertips, and then as he traversed the base of the sword, Wang Ling diverted its course and as his fingers reached the sword's handle, he had already managed to have the sword embed itself on the ground.
Face to face on the young man, Wang Ling just spoke calmly, ”—with its strength already dissipated because of your doing. Forcing your body to react is not a good thing. This is the reason why we have techniques to not force the body doing incorrigible stunts.”
”Why… are you telling me all this?” the young man could not understand Wang Ling's annoying, yet helpful ramblings.
Wang Ling paused, then shrugged his shoulders, ”Hmm… so that's what I do when I f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y stifle my intention to kill.” Wang Ling sigh before touching the young man's c.h.e.s.t and sending out a fist strike, ”Mountain Crushing Fist.”
Boom! He altered the strength of the Original Fist technique to not kill the young man. The young man was sent flying, and with one down, more than two dozen rushed him after sensing how low his cultivation was. Wang Ling was hesitant instinctively brought out his sword, he was ready to kill them all to make things easier for him but stopped halfway through, [I can't kill the future of the Universe, no matter how weak they are.]
He who slaughtered billions was actually thinking of letting them all live through this encounter. He didn't care if they were to die from the hands of others because that's far from being his problem, but Wang Ling wouldn't actively kill them because of such weak reason as being attacked.
He didn't want to further whittle the numbers of the younger generations. Even when Wang Ling went to takeover the Star Seeking Sect, he only killed the Elders and a few disciples.
He had been thinking of the broader future. Even his act of saving the orphans was him laying the groundworks of his Sect's disciple cleaning up the slave trafficking that lessens the Universe's manpower.
Killing these people from the Younger Generations would be conflicting to his goals if he kills them now, and Wang Ling may be a hypocrite but he at least sticks to his plans… for the most part.
He dodged their weapons, redirected the others, and then accepted the non-lethal attacks. Wang Ling received several injuries, but with that sacrificed he managed to stop killing anyone and opening up a window for him to take advantage!
”Angel, help me gather the Energy of the Earth!”
”Okay.”
Through Wang Ling's legs he could feel the power of the Earth taking hold of his soles granting him a stable footing, he clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, and then struck the ground, ”World Crushing Fist!”
The asphalt floors crumbled and as the stones all were uprooted, the rubbles and the shockwave sent the young ones flying! Wang Ling cut through the smokescreen, and from the corner of his eyes he saw a man holding a red fan.
It was Dang Wen, the man arguing Wang Go earlier about to strike at Wang Ling, ”You're getting away!” Dang Wen announced, but his hands failed to even complete its movement as his eyes became covered in cold sweat.
His world suddenly turned a bloody red and Wang Ling's figure from an ordinary young man to that of a blood frenzied monster! Dang Wen and the people in that room all froze, some even failed to breathe properly.
Their worlds only returned to normal when Wang Ling exited the room. Dang Wen watched the place where Wang Ling disappeared to and held his neck, he thought back to how Wang Go acted at the sight of Wang Ling and somehow became even more frustrated.
