Chapter 1286
…
Outside the alchemist association, large devastation could be seen along with several corpses littered on the ground.
The bodies belong to strong warriors in the middle stages of the Ki Adept realm and all of them are wearing the same robes of the Rou and Zaoi clans.
Not too far is a ruined building and several tattered Mecha are on the ground. There are hundreds of bullet shells scattered all over the place making it looks like a warzone.
As of this moment, the figure of Xin Ja is lying inside a crater with wounds all over his body.
Beside him is the equally wounded Xuanlong who has a long gash on her black body and it seems that one of her wings is broken.
"Huff! Huff!" Xin Ja tried to breathe but he is having a hard time as it seems that a few of his ribs are broken.
In front of him… there stood a guy that looks like in his teens. His hair is silver and he is showing an enraged expression on his face.
The reason for this is that the guy's left hand along with his forearm is missing. Looking at his bloody sleeves, one could deduce that it was actually blasted out of his left arm.
And for this reason, his rage is through the top making his eyes red and his veins popping out of his forehead.
"I will kill you, you trash!" the man shouted in rage but what made him thoroughly lose his mind is the grin on Xin Ja's face which looks like a blatant mockery of the guy.
His name is Zaoi Qinglao, a level 21 Ki Master.
So how could he not be enraged at what just happened?
In this battle, his enemy is only a 1st level Ki fighter. However, who would have known that the guy was able to summon one Mecha after another like they were just suits.
Before he could destroy one, that guy would summon another one.
Plus, he is using weapons that have extreme penetrating power which rendered him helpless even though he is already a Ki master.
If not for the sacrifice of those that are below him, he would have already died in this fight.
It was a thorough humiliation on his part, and for that reason, he wanted to thoroughly kill the guy.
But no matter how hard he attacks, he could not defeat Xin Ja and the black creature with him.
He has to mobilize more than 100 of his men just to subdue the guy and finally give him a trashing.
But from the looks of it, the guy seems to be still mocking him even after he was already defeated. He could not understand where the guy gets his confidence and arrogance.
At this time, on the side, Rou Chenchen already has a pale complexion on her face.
She knew that with the presence of the Ki Master, Xin Ja would surely lose. And when she saw him summon one Mecha after another, she feel elated and thought that he would be able to win the fight, but he still could not overcome the large gap in their level.
"Stop!!! Please stop!!!" Rou Chenchen weakly shouted as she looks at the devastation on the streets.
She tried to scan if there are bystander that was affected by the battle and felt her heart tightens when she saw some people wounded.
"I will follow the clan… Stop this battle! Please!" she cried.
Upon hearing this, Xin Ja clenches his fist as desperation enters his heart. Even after gaining such strength, in the end, he was still defeated by a more powerful enemy.
He knew that if one judges him, especially when it comes to firepower and technological prospect, Xin Ja could already be considered the strongest below the Ki Master level.
No Ki adept could defeat him in any way possible.
And that is evident in the corpses of the Ki adepts all sprawled on the ground.
But that is not enough… he still could not protect the one he loves even after gaining such power.
As he looks at the Ki Master who is also glaring at him, Xin Ja gathered the blood from his throat and then spews on the ground in a defiant way.
He would not bow his head to these people.
He has a choice to use the portal, but he is not sure if the Ki Master would affect the space distortion as he had seen the power of his opponent.
That guy can command the element like it was nothing.
His speed and strength are above him in all aspects, and that guy could smash his armor like it was tofu.
But still… in the extreme life and death battle that happened, he was still able to wound the guy and destroy his left hand.
"Cousin… You should have said that a while ago and he would have been spared… But now, the Zaoi clan will torture him until he is dead… That way the dead clan members would be appeased…" Rou Jin on the side said.
He is clutching his shoulder as there is a large bullet hole on it.
"Hahaha… This is all your fault! It was you guys who started this. And now that your kin has died you'll try to blame that to him who only defended himself? What kind of people are you!" she shouted as her heart is now feeling despair.
"Enough talk! I will take this trash and let him suffer the cruelest death of all!" Ki Master Zaoi Qinglao shouted as he suddenly grabs Xin Ja and drags him out of the crater.
Then the two figures disappear from the area.
At this time, a group of people has finally walked out of the alchemist association with an angry expression.
On their way out, they were actually blocked by a couple of royal guards and were not permitted to walk out of the alchemist association building.
p But as soon as the battle outside finished, the few old men rushes out.
A few minutes before everyone could come out…
The 6th prince and the young master from the Zaoi clan, Zaoi Ximen, are looking at the devastation on the streets.
The 6th prince is clenching his fists as he could feel the danger that Xin Ja possesses. He knew that if that guy is not killed, he would pose a real threat when that guy grew stronger.
Who would believe that a mere 1st-level Ki fighter would be able to do such damage to the area and even kill hundreds of experts?
They have seen the middle of the battle first hand and could not help but shiver in fright at the battle prowess of the young man.
With a tacit understanding, they knew that they should either kill him or put him in prison for the rest of his life.
But when they saw that the young man was taken by Ki Master Zaoi Qinglao, the two knew that Xin Ja is now a dead man.
The young master, Zaoi Ximen, walks beside Rou Chenchen who is now showing a wretched appearance. Her disheveled hair and tear-filled eyes behind her glasses made her look unattractive.
He just shifted his gaze and then said in a low voice.
"You now have two choices… Either you marry me, or else… your man dies…" he said with a sinister smile on his face.
When Rou Chenchen heard his words, her heart shuddered in despair. She did not know where she could turn to. She already knew that Xin Ja has done everything he could, but when she gaze at the person standing behind the young master of the Zaoi clan, her heart has already sunk.
Even if Xin Ja's master would come, the situation is still against them.
"If… If he dies… I will die with him…" she thought as a determined glint appears in her eyes.
Xin Ja told her to trust him. He sent her a message at that time that… no matter what happens, she should trust and wait for him.
"Little Ja, I will trust you no matter what. But if you really leave me,… I am ready to go with you…" she thought as a line of tears slides down her cheek.
Her body is shuddering but she did not say anything.
Suddenly, she lifted her head to the sky as tears flowed freely in her listless eyes.
Her figure became weak, and then suddenly she fell to the ground.
But before she could hit the ground, an old man suddenly appear and caught her.
"Little Chenchen… I'm sorry I was not able to protect you from these bastards…" the old man whispered as he suddenly takes her weak body to the alchemist association building.
How could Zaoi Ximen let this happen? He suddenly stood in front of the old man and glares at him.
"Scram!" the voice of a Ki Master erupted from the old man's body which sent Zaoi Ximen tumbling to the ground.
Nobody could have expected that the meek-looking old man who is the head of the alchemist association is actually a Ki Master.
The 6th prince is now filled with doubt. He knew that he had made a mistake this time.
"Prince Han Xulong… Offending us was your biggest mistake…" the old man said as he walked to the entrance with Rou Chenchen in his arms followed by several old men.
