Ch 432: Primordial Qi

Lü Xiachen, seeing Chen Cheng injured, instantly experienced a surge of demonic energy. Unable to control her rage any longer, she transformed, becoming green-faced and fanged, radiating a suffocating coldness. She instantly appeared beside the man who had attacked, extending her sharp demonic claws and piercing his chest. With a slight exertion of force, she tore his physical body in half!

The middle-aged Old Man following behind was stunned, as was the Gray-Robed Man wailing on the ground. They hadn’t expected Lü Xiachen to be so ferocious. Their group of five; the one with the highest Daoist Arts had escaped with the Lady, followed by the Gray-Robed Man who had been whipped with the White Bone Whip. They had initially thought Chen Cheng and Zhang Qian were ordinary Daoist Cultivators, but they hadn’t expected them to actually keep such a powerful Ghost King!

Lü Xiachen didn’t stop. Her icy gaze fell upon the middle-aged man in the distance. The middle-aged man instantly felt as if he were being targeted by death, his whole body radiating coldness. He steeled his heart, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, seemingly intending to confront Lü Xiachen directly. Lü Xiachen’s expression was one of disdain. She leaped forward, her White Bone Whip raised high. This blow, if it landed, would likely split him in two!

“Xia Chan, don’t kill him, I have questions to ask”!

The White Bone Whip, about to strike the man’s head, suddenly changed direction, landing on his shoulder instead. Instantly, his right arm was shattered by the powerful force! This sent the middle-aged man, who hadn’t even begun to use his Daoist Arts, flying backward!

The sounds of fighting and screams here attracted the attention of people in the surrounding buildings. Chen Cheng saw windows on the second and third floors opening, and some people began to curiously look out. Fortunately, it was night, and the rain was pouring down heavily, so people couldn’t see clearly what was happening, but they all tried their best to peek out, wanting to know what had happened.

Chen Cheng had already stood up from the ground. He quickly took out a Pill his Master had refined and put it in his mouth. The Pill melted instantly, a refreshing coolness spreading through him, instantly calming the burning pain in his chest!

He walked to the Gray-Robed Man who had been whipped by Lü Xiachen, kicked him in the face, causing blood to gush from his mouth. Chen Cheng, devoid of mercy, knelt down, grabbed his hair, and said:

“If you don’t want to die, give a proper explanation. Where did you take my Wife? Why did you kidnap an ordinary person”?

The Gray-Robed Man’s mouth was full of blood, washed away by the rain. He wanted to resist, but seeing Lü Xiachen floating above him, he was terrified. He coughed twice and said:

“It was Yu Fengnian, the Grand Protector, who took her. As for where, I, I don’t know”!

Chen Cheng punched him in the face, saying:

“Don’t you dare bullshit me, you’re all in this together, how could you not know”?

He punched him repeatedly in the face. He was now blinded by rage, forgetting that he wasn’t an ordinary person!

“Master, this is useless”!

Chen Cheng had punched him more than ten times, and the man only screamed but refused to confess. Hearing Lü Xiachen’s voice, he stopped punching.

Lü Xiachen had already captured the Yin Spirit of the man who had attacked Chen Cheng. He was a cultivator, his Yin Spirit stronger than that of an ordinary person, already possessing Spiritual Awareness. Now, his Yin Spirit trembled in Lü Xiachen’s hand!

The Gray-Robed Man’s ability to fight Lü Xiachen indicated that he had opened his Heavenly Eye. He could see Lü Xiachen, and naturally, he could also see his companion’s Yin Spirit.

“If you don’t talk, I’ll tear your Yin Spirit out. I’m sure you’ve never experienced that, have you”!

Although forcibly tearing out someone’s Yin Spirit violated the Heavenly Dao, Chen Cheng didn’t care anymore. He only wanted to know where Zhang Qian had been taken!

The Gray-Robed Man was indeed terrified. Although he hadn’t experienced it, he knew the pain. It was a thousand times more painful than flaying and drawing sinews. For a moment, his face was pale, and his heart was dead. This Ghost King was too powerful; perhaps only Yu Fengnian, the Grand Protector, could fight her!

“I, I’ll tell you. After I tell you, I only hope you’ll give me a quick death”!

“Speak quickly”!

Chen Cheng’s eyes were bloodshot, looking like an Evil Ghost crawling out of hell!

“Your Wife was taken by Yu Fengnian, the Grand Protector of our Divine Cult. He said your Wife is a natural furnace body, possessing pure Yang Essence and Yin Essence, Primordial Qi. Consuming this Primordial Qi would allow his Cultivation Technique to advance further”!

Chen Cheng was shocked. He seemed to remember his Master mentioning that Zhang Qian wouldn’t age without Pills, because her Yin Essence absorbed his Yang Essence. And in the Demon Realm, he learned that he was the Chosen One, possessing the purest primordial Yang power. Could it be that his union with Zhang Qian, their Yin and Yang Essences combining, formed a new Primordial Qi?

“What Divine Cult are you? Is it the Xiangliu Cult”?

The Gray-Robed Man’s face was full of fear:

“You, how did you know”?

Chen Cheng punched him again and asked:

“Where are they now? Tell me, and I’ll do as you wish, give you a quick death, and I won’t let your soul disperse. Otherwise, I will personally tear your Yin Spirit apart piece by piece”!

The Gray-Robed Man trembled at his words, looking at Chen Cheng’s distorted face with fear. He was certain that if he didn’t speak, Chen Cheng would really torture him slowly. So he said:

“We have a base on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Yu Fengnian, the Grand Protector, took her there”!

“Crack”!

Chen Cheng personally snapped his neck! There was no need for mercy towards these Cult Members who disregarded human life; killing them was upholding justice! Otherwise, countless innocent lives would perish at their hands!

“Xia Chan, take care of that one too”!

“Yes, Master”!

Soon, the Gray-Robed Man’s Yin Spirit floated out of his body. Before it could escape, Lü Xiachen had already grabbed it by the neck.

“Lead the way”!

Chen Cheng didn’t want to waste any more time with it, and directly ordered.

Lü Xiachen’s demonic claws tightened, and the Gray-Robed Man’s Yin Spirit immediately trembled, then began to indicate direction, floating westward. Chen Cheng, his steps swift, followed, his heart filled with guilt and anxiety. If Zhang Qian was harmed, he dared not imagine what would become of him!

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is located about ten kilometers northwest of Lijiang. It resembles a giant dragon soaring and dancing, hence its name. Originally, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was within their plans, but this was an earlier, forced arrival!

Before leaving the city, Chen Cheng found a bicycle parked in front of a bar, with a female waitress standing there. He quickly approached, pulled out a handful of wet money, and said:

“I’ll rent this bicycle”!

Having said that, he pushed the bicycle and ran without looking back, leaving the bewildered waitress staring at the money in her hand, before realizing and shouting:

“That’s not my bicycle, it’s the vegetable vendor’s”,,,

But Chen Cheng’s figure had already disappeared into the rainy night!
