Thoughts ran through the young man’s mind as he kept his head bowed inside the carriage.

Gu Suihan was either really powerful enough to completely incapacitate his enemies earlier by himself, or he had some extremely powerful backers.

Either way, it was sufficient to help him with the fact that he hadn’t been able to carry out his duties this time. Even if Gu Suihan just said one word, that would be helpful. But..Gu Suihan’s personality was very aloof and unfeeling, so he would never do anything for you if he did not stand to benefit from it.

After thinking about it more, the young man seemed to have come to a decision. He bit his lips, and there was a determined fierceness in his eyes. Since that was the case, he was going to force Gu Suihan into taking sides!

But when he remembered how Gu Suihan could exude a murderous qi that seemed capable of vaporizing everything, his expression fell again.

So what if his scheme worked out? Based on Gu Suihan’s personality, it was going to take more than words to convince him against taking revenge.

“Forget it. So what if they die? As long as I stay alive, then the rest of you will have to suffer. That..doesn’t matter.” A vicious look slowly appeared on the young man’s tense face.

“We’re here.” The mountain god stopped and looked at the rundown, sinister-looking temple ahead.

Gu Suihan came closer, then flicked a finger at the mountain god. His internal energies were like talismans as the air around the mountain god turned into several chains that tied the old fellow up. Even the elements and the laws of nature quickly turned into a cage.

“To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, you shall wait here.” Gu Suihan glanced nonchalantly at the mountain god. The mountain god sighed and watched on as Gu Suihan walked toward the rundown temple that was filled with the sinister aura of fiendish qi.

“Who’s there?” It was as though he had stepped on a line that would set an alarm off. The moment he came too close, the broken main door of the temple suddenly exploded. A nasty and evil wind blew out violently from inside with a mighty roar that made all the trees and plants around it shake noisily.

“Very good. You’re sentient, and you’ve refined your bones enough to speak like humans. I hope you’ve gotten some of the glorious traits from your ancestors,” said Gu Suihan with a frosty smile. He stopped in his footsteps and made all the sounds around him shut up instantly.

He flew into the sky and covered 300 meters in just one breath. The sound of metal against metal rang through the clouds as his blade brushed against its sheath. The clouds above scattered, and the plants below died on the spot.

Blackish-red fiendish qi surged out like water as his sword flew out of its sheath. There was a slightly panicky noise coming from inside the temple as the glow of his qi spread across a few hundred meters and came crashing down as though the milky way had descended on the Earth.

“I have no feud with you! Why do you attack me with a sword like this?” A loud roar was followed by the creaking of the temple as it could not hold up against the attack and collapsed loudly into a pile of rubble. As the wind blew wildly, a giant tiger appeared from nowhere. It made a leap and moved its lower half slightly, dodging Gu Suihan’s mighty swing of the sword by less than an inch.

“You..have something that I want!”

Gu Suihan licked his lips and pushed himself further into the air. His blade trembled slightly and made a terrifying humming noise as he drew illusion after illusion which surrounded the giant tiger in an instant.

“Which one is the real one? That one? Or that one? Or are they all illusions?” The demonic beast widened its eyes and stared intently at the dozens of illusions that looked unbelievably realistic. It solemnly lay on the ground with an arched back and let out several low growls.

“You have the blood of a Wind Controlling White Tiger, so hurry up and use the traits you’ve inherited from them..” Gu Suihan turned and immediately appeared behind the demonic beast. He swung his blade down like it was a rain of falling stars. His low and unfeeling voice sounded like it was ready to take someone’s life without batting an eye. It made the beast’s fur all stand on end.

It couldn’t help but widen its eyes further and open its huge mouth to let out an ear-deafening roar.

The mountain god whom Gu Suihan had chained down not too far away from the tiger paled instantly. He broke free of his shackles within a second and stumbled backward. His mouth gaped, and he sprayed a mouthful of blood out before collapsing weakly onto the ground.

“Not bad, you’ve still got it.”

Gu Suihan’s blade brushed past the demonic beast, taking some blackened blood with it. Some grayish white furs were also minced by the saw shaped blade.

The demonic beast trembled as its instinct told it that it didn’t have the power to defend itself. It would just have to do its best. Its many years of experience were enough for it to know that this young man didn’t intend to kill it at all. He was simply cheekily pushing its potential.

“Step on the Wind..”

A mighty roar shot through the clouds and one could see the ripple of soundwaves in the air. All the trees, grass, ceramics, rubble and rock were instantly pulverized. At the same time, the beast suddenly leaped up and moved like the wind. Its inch long claws shone brightly as they exuded a frightening amount of fiendish qi.

“There’s still more. This isn’t enough.” Gu Suihan’s eyes shone as he stared more and more intensely at the demonic beast. He turned his blade and used the back as a club, crashing it down fiercely on the beast’s head. The sound of bones cracking sounded like the crisp noise of firecrackers.

Its head sank in by a good two inches. Blood splattered everywhere and stained its grayish white fur.

“You still have more. You still have a trump card or two..” Gu Suihan’s lips curled into a smile that struck terror in the beast’s heart.

“Turning the Wind to Fiendish Qi, and Murderous Qi to Knives!”

This was what it concluded after years of killing, the essence of what it learned and the thing it was most proud of. It could turn the laws of wind into a wind that could freeze the sky and transform the laws of massacring into swords.

“Not bad! It’s time for you to reunite with your ancestors!”

Gu Suihan narrowed his eyes and dragged his blade as he ran. In that instant, he became like an apparition as he suddenly disappeared without a trace.

“Where did he go?”

The giant tiger felt a little dizzy before feeling an excruciating pain that seemed to cut through its very bones.

After that, all it saw was blood and its enormous body convulsing on the ground. Its blood flowed like a river out of its body without any signs of stopping, creating a bright red pool of blood on the ground.

Before it could figure out what just happened, it suddenly felt like something very strong was pulling at it, and that force was coming from the young man’s hand as he stood on top of its body. It only took it a second to realize why this fellow had done things this way.

“You..you’re trying to suck my soul out and take away what I have inherited from the Demonic Race bloodline! I’m not going to let you do that! ROAAAR!!” The giant tiger’s eyes were bloodshot as it roared furiously.

“If that wasn’t the case, I wouldn’t have put in so much effort to make sure you put in the same effort,” said Gu Suihan with a snort. A frightening beam of light shot out from his eyes as he instantly shattered the bleeding tiger’s head that had been roaring just moments ago. He hooked a finger and made a whitish ball of light land in his palm.

If he hadn’t forced this tiger to use a secret technique from its Demonic Race bloodline, which caused its soul and bloodline to merge temporarily, he wouldn’t have had the chance to get hold of the legacy imprinted in the bloodline of the Demonic Race. That would have disappeared with the death of the beast.

“Don’t disappoint me,” murmured Gu Suihan as he kept that ball of light. He then threw a bottle of pills to the mountain god, stared at the mountain god intently for a moment, then chuckled and left.

Of course, he didn’t leave the tiger’s skin behind. He peeled it off the tiger’s body and kept it for himself. This beast had refined its bones and merged its blood and soul after all, so it was equivalent to an Origin Core cultivator. Its skin and fur were definitely no ordinary items in that case.

GULP! A long while later, the mountain god finally snapped out of his daze. He stared at the mess of flesh and blood on the ground and couldn’t help but shudder. Some time later, he finally let out a sad laugh. “He really doesn’t miss anything out. Did he leave this body behind as payment to keep my mouth shut?” The mountain god sighed heavily.

Li Yu, the young man whom Gu Suihan had saved, and the woman who had pleaded on his behalf ended up being able to remain inside the carriage instead of being dragged along outside.

It wasn’t that Gu Suihan had been convinced to help them, but because he didn’t want to attract unnecessary attention. Getting to a good place to rest and check out the tiger demon’s blood soul was his top priority.

He thrust a hand seal out. A faint, misty glow appeared around the carriage. As the runes hummed loudly, the animal pulling the carriage seemed to have grown wings as it began to run on the clouds.

In an instant, they were 300 meters above the ground. They travelled like the wind, causing sparks as they quickly disappeared into the sky.

Gu Suihan was pushing the carriage to its maximum, so its speed was way faster than what it would have been capable of on land. His vast spiritual sense was controlling every tiny part of the carriage, so it was travelling like a shooting star, covering thousands of miles within seconds.

“We’re almost there,” murmured Gu Suihan as he glanced at the map, as if he were speaking to himself.

Li Yu’s expression shifted when he heard these words and his body trembled very slightly. He seemed to be struggling to make a decision of sorts. Several moments later, he finally gritted his teeth and tensed his facial muscles to force himself to calm down. The hesitant look in his bloodshot eyes covered by his messy hair was slowly replaced by a determined and resolved one.

Li Yu suddenly pulled the woman’s hand away from him and fell to his knees inside the carriage with a loud thud. Tears streamed down his face as he said in a choked voice, “Sir, please save me!”

“We’ll see.” Gu Suihan glanced playfully at him, then blinked. Li Yu wasn’t able to speak anymore after that.

He didn’t want to get his hands dirty for nothing. As long as Li Yu gave him what he promised, he didn’t care if he lived or died.
