Martial God Asura

Chapter 6091: Not Forgetting My Initial Goals

After Baili Zilin declared that he would continue waiting for Chu Feng, the spirit power that had previously enveloped the dueling ring reappeared, preventing the crowd from seeing what was happening inside.

A spirit formation gate formed in the middle of the dueling ring. Baili Zilin grabbed Wang Qiang’s hair and pulled him into the spirit formation gate, where they entered a mobile fortress.

This mobile fortress was hidden in this realm; they had recently brought it here. It was an Ancient Era’s treasure, harnessing tremendous spirit power. Even the formation that enveloped the dueling ring had come from it.

But this wasn’t all the mobile fortress was capable of.

Baili Zilin tossed Wang Qiang away like a sandbag after entering the mobile fortress.

The walls were incomparably hard, so the impact rattled Wang Qiang’s organs. Blood spurted from his mouth as he fell to the ground.

“You have a filthy mouth, little stutterer. What did you call me earlier?”

Baili Zilin walked up to Wang Qiang and bent down. He had a dagger that gleamed with a cold light in his hand.

However, Wang Qiang remained fearless. “I am your fath…”

Baili Zilin plunged his dagger into Wang Qiang’s mouth, causing blood to spurt out.

This dagger didn’t just pierce Wang Qiang’s body but his soul too, so the latter was unable to finish his sentence despite his anger. Even so, Baili Zilin didn’t feel like he had vented his rage yet, so he pulled out the dagger and stabbed it once more.

Pu pu pu!

Wang Qiang’s face was mashed into bits.

“You were trying to pluck off my head earlier?”

Baili Zilin dropped his dagger. He grabbed Wang Qiang’s head with one hand and his shoulder with the other, and with sheer brute strength, he tore the latter’s head off his neck.

But Wang Qiang was still alive.

It was not that Baili Zilin didn’t have the means to kill Wang Qiang but that he wasn’t planning to take the latter’s life yet. He just wanted to torture Wang Qiang.

He had to put up a magnanimous appearance before others earlier; it was only now that they were in a private place that he could reveal his darker side. Even so, the hatred he felt for Wang Qiang remained unabated.

“You have a stubborn mouth. Let me see if you can stay silent.”

Baili Zilin continued torturing Wang Qiang, but the latter didn’t let out the slightest grunt. He simply glared at Baili Zilin with vicious eyes.

“Glaring at me?”

The infuriated Baili Zilin wanted to blind Wang Qiang.

“That’s enough,” a voice suddenly echoed.

A layer of oppressive might protected Wang Qiang—it was from Jimo Qianzhou. He had been here for a while now, but he didn’t stop Baili Zilin because he knew that the latter was enraged. He was only stepping in now because he was worried that Baili Zilin would kill Wang Qiang.

“I heard he possesses the Four Fiends Divine Body, which is ranked fourteenth on the Divine Body Ranking. No wonder the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion has channeled its resources to nurture him,” Jimo Qianzhou remarked.

“Don’t worry, I’m not planning to kill him. I have a use for him. It’s just that his mouth is so dirty that I need to teach him a lesson to vent my anger.”

Baili Zilin sat down on a chair inside. Without bothering to wipe his bloodstained hands, he grabbed a fruit from the table and munched on it. “Are you certain it’s the Four Fiends Divine Body?”

“I can’t confirm it, but it resembles it. It should be the case,” Jimo Qianzhou replied.

“It doesn’t matter. He is a capable one, so I’ll be taking his bloodline either way. I thought that he was trash wasting my time, but this turned out to be unexpectedly fruitful. Let’s pray that Chu Feng is that loyal; that would be two birds with a stone,” Baili Zilin sneered.

He had no intention of sparing Wang Qiang or Chu Feng.

…

Some days had passed since Baili Zilin’s fight with Wang Qiang.

There was an ancient stone tower located in the mountain range where the Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild’s leader dwelled. This tower was sculpted out of a single boulder, and it was shrouded by an aura reminiscent of a hurricane.

The aura slowly dissipated, and Zi Lin stepped out from the tower.

Even though they had been together in recent days, Chu Feng was still mesmerized by her.

Zi Ling’s beauty was the same as ever, but her disposition was much stronger than before. It was now evident even just from her appearance that she was a top-notch expert.

“Big brother Chu Feng,” Zi Ling called him with an endearing term and a gentle and coy tone, transforming from a top-notch expert into his adorable lover.

“It looks like you might be able to make a breakthrough to True God level,” Chu Feng said.

“The resources we have received are formidable. Big brother Chu Feng, isn’t your bloodline’s appetite too big? I’m surprised you haven’t made a breakthrough despite having assimilated the cultivation resources well.”

The Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild’s leader had been providing Zi Ling with cultivation resources, but she brought out exceptionally valuable cultivation resources when Chu Feng returned.

Zi Ling and Chu Feng had been assimilating the cultivation resources in recent days.

Chu Feng had been assimilating the resources faster and more effectively than her, but he was still not on the verge of a breakthrough yet. In contrast, Zi Ling had taken a huge stride forward.

The problem was that Chu Feng’s bloodline was extremely demanding, even more so than the blood-red ancient tower inside her.

“Don’t worry about me. My bloodline might be demanding, but I still managed to get to where I am by taking a step at a time. Rather, you shouldn’t be getting distracted during your cultivation. Go back and cultivate. Try to push for a breakthrough to True God level in a single breath,” Chu Feng replied.

“I’ll be surpassing you for now then, big brother Chu Feng,” Zi Ling replied with a sweet smile.

She knew that her talent was beneath Chu Feng. She wouldn’t even have been able to keep pace with him if not for the blood-red tower inside her. Even if she overtook Chu Feng for now, it was only a matter of time before he caught up and surpassed her.

The two of them exchanged sweet nothings before Zi Ling obediently returned to the stone tower to cultivate.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng went to look for the Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild’s leader.

After exchanging some pleasantries, he mentioned that he was planning to head out for a moment.

“You’re planning to save Wang Qiang, aren’t you?” the guild leader asked with a cold face.

She noticed that Chu Feng was paying attention to the situation outside. Even though she had neglected to inform him of the matter, she did not doubt that it was only a matter of time before he learned about it.

“I can’t hide anything from you, elder. Wang Qiang is my close brother. I have to save him.”

“I won’t stop you if you wish to go, but I won’t help you. You know better than anyone that you have become prey for all major powers in the world of cultivation after conquering the Genesis Bloodline. This is a trap laid for you. I can tell you straight that not only will you fail to save Wang Qiang, but you’ll fall captive to them too,” the guild leader said.

“I know that it’s dangerous, but I can’t turn a blind eye to my brother’s plight. I would have done the same for you too, elder,” Chu Feng said.

The guild leader widened her eyes in surprise. She hadn’t thought that Chu Feng would brave danger for her sake, but it didn’t look like he was lying.

However, she quickly shook her head and snorted, “I don’t need you to rescue me even if I’m in danger. Reckless loyalty is just sheer foolishness. Someone who acts like that will never amount to anything great, no matter how talented they are.”

“I have never thought of becoming anyone great. The reason I cultivate is to protect those around me. I have never forgotten that, not now, not ever.”

After finishing his piece, Chu Feng turned around and walked out, leaving the guild leader stunned and conflicted.
