Chapter 140: A Hidden Reward
Yipeng Jiuzha, the blood demons’ leader, had just inherited power from his father. He was young, ambitious, and vivacious.
He had long decided that, with the assistance of the blood demons, millions of warriors should not be kept in the dark indefinitely.
The blood demons should live in a land with plenty of water and grass.
As a result, he gathered all the warriors and directed them to occupy the entire land.
Initially, they relied on their massive army to win every battle.
As more areas were conquered, various races banded together to form an army.
They confronted the blood demon army’s charge.
That made Yipeng Jiuzha very angry.
What made him even angrier was the presence of a particularly vexing mage in the opposing army.
Every now and then, a forbidden spell would be cast, claiming the lives of thousands of blood demon warriors, if not hundreds of thousands.
He was furious.
He had amassed a substantial sum by collecting resources in the occupied area and bribing a spy in a vital position in the allied army across the continent. He rushed there last night, claiming that an important person would appear in that small stronghold. He would be able to eliminate the blood demons’ greatest threat.
The spy was by his side.
If Wang Wen and the others saw him, they would recognize him as the adjutant who had shouted the loudest in the commander’s room, attempting to prevent them from defending the stronghold.
He told Yipeng Jiuzha confidently, “That’s right. Even a strong great mage who defected was defeated. It has got to be Darbus!”
When Yipeng Jiuzha heard that, his eyes lit up. He looked around at the army he had assembled. He patted the spy’s shoulder. “I will give you 20 cities when I conquer the continent!”

When he heard that, the spy’s eyes lit up as well. He laughed.
Then, they received a battle report.
The blood demon army had fallen into a trap not far from the main battlefield. “Hundreds of thousands of soldiers had been slaughtered!”
Yipeng Jiuzha’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the battle report.
Before he could catch his breath, he noticed an airship approaching him.
He happened to be in a bad mood.
Just as he was about to order the blood giant and blood mage to shoot down the annoying flies, he was interrupted.
He noticed a head protruding from the edge of the airship.
A layer of the ground below collapsed with a boom without any movement from the head.
Yipeng Jiuzha’s eyes nearly burst.
What happened?
He looked left and right, hoping for a reasonable response from one of his subordinates.
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him.
Even the spy, who was well-versed in combat, could not figure out what was going on.
He remembered that there were no traps.
That was not Darbus either.
Who else could cause such a stir?
A couple of young brats flashed through the spy’s mind.
He curled his lips.
Then he laughed and shook his head. He felt as if he had gone insane from anxiety. How could he have known?
Why could he be a good spy if those brats could cause such a commotion?
They would win. Was it not better to wait for his promotion and make a fortune?
His battle-hardened instincts told him that no matter what happened, he should at least split up his troops a little so that they would not be wiped out all at once.
As a result, he made his suggestion to Yipeng Jiuzha.
Yipeng Jiuzha thought it was a reasonable plan and ordered his troops to split into groups.
The order had only gone three steps.
An even more powerful earthquake rumbled, reducing the troops in front by a quarter.
A dense bluish-white bolt of lightning appeared on the right side of the sky.
A lightning bolt from the clear sky!
Yipeng Jiuzha’s heart almost shattered, and even his brain was in pain. He yelled at the troops, telling them to retreat.
Then he noticed a colorful cloud rising slowly.
It whistled as it flew toward him from above.
Boom!
His vision was brilliant white.
He was surrounded by a searing heat that could melt steel.
He could not hear anything.
However, Yipeng Jiuzha sensed that the blood essence of the blood demon’s imperial clan, which had been buried in his body since birth, had been activated.
That was his ancestral bloodline’s blood essence, which would only awaken when he was on the verge of death.
He had only one chance in life.
He had not expected to fail in such a setting!
When he regained his sight, all he could see was the descent of the god of fire around him. Except for him, nothing else was alive.
All the soldiers and generals, as well as the spy who had been hiding by his side, had been warped into charcoal.
The blood on the winged Yipeng Jiuzha’s body appeared to be on fire. He was beyond enraged.
“Darbus!” he yelled at the sky. “I will not rest until you die for destroying the blood demon race’s thousand-year-old great cause!”
Outside the charred circle, there were only a few scattered soldiers. They regained some morale when they discovered Yipeng Jiuzha was still alive. They ignored the heat and assembled.
Yipeng Jiuzha yelled at them while wildly waving his hand. “Charge, charge, charge! Every single one of you! They can only use the forbidden spell once in a limited time. Darbus is useless now! He is standing right in front of us! Victory is right in front of us! No one else can stop us after Darbus is killed!”
Before he could complete his sentences, another bright cloud appeared in front of him.
It had the same formula and smelled the same.
With a whistling sound, it rushed toward him.
Boom!
Yipeng Jiuzha was vaporized in the first second of the explosion. He did not even burn.
In the distance.
Mo Ran stared at Zhu Xingguo, mouth agape. “Why did you do the same thing?” he asked, perplexed.
“Since you and Master are fighting so passionately, I also want to do something,” Zhu Xingguo said honestly.
Mo Ran, unsure whether to laugh or cry, asked, “So why did you aim in the same direction as I was? I have already shot in that direction, but no one is there. Aren’t you wasting your time? Isn’t it obvious that soldiers were still present?”
Zhu Xingguo said, “I noticed that the range was huge. I decided to learn from you because that was the first time I used fear to control the distance. However, I didn’t shoot in the same direction as everyone else; I shot to the side.”
Mo Ran choked.
He suddenly realized that what he had said was correct. The missile’s range was too long, and the back was empty. He would have to shoot closer if he did not want to waste it. It would be very easy for him to hurt his own people if he did not keep it under control.
Nonetheless, he punched Zhu Xingguo. “Do you have to be so extravagant even though it is yours? It costs more than a million points to purchase it.”
Zhu Xingguo had been electrocuted so severely that his hair stood on end. He did, however, giggle and say, “Yes, yes, it was expensive.”
The airship returned and landed.
Wang Wen leaped from the cabin and gave them both a thumbs up. “You two were great. You want to kill monsters to vent your rage, but you took them all out. Did you mean to do that?”
Mo Ran looked surprised at him. “Are you upset?”
“What?” Wang Wen gave him a sidelong glance. “You can break stones to express your rage, but I can’t kill monsters to express mine.”
He initially thought Mo Ran was looking for trouble, but the moment he opened his mouth, he began shouting and yelling. “F*ck, you are upset? It’s unusual to see you angry! I don’t have a phone; otherwise, I can take a picture. Oh, yeah! I will ask Chen Hansheng for a Certificate of Evil; he most certainly has one!”
“You have a minute before you have to fly.” Wang Wen sighed as he packed his belongings and prepared to enter the next level.
Darbus, who had been silent the entire time, looked at them.
Suddenly, he approached the small group of people and said, in a sentimental tone, “I have lived to learn. I had seen countless forbidden spells and secret arts in my life and assumed there would not be anymore. I didn’t expect to benefit from a few young warriors today, which surprised me and opened my eyes. Can you tell me what those arts are called? It’s a good thing I can still see it in my old age.”
“Don’t bother.” Wang Wen counseled him, “The name is so long that I don’t recall it. You won’t understand it, and no one will believe you even if you write it down.”
Darbus nodded when he heard that. He took a box from his pocket and handed it to Wang Wen. “You seem to be in a hurry. The Magnificent Divine Stone’s teaching scroll is no longer available. Here’s a finished scroll that I made. You can use it to transform the target stone into a Magnificent Divine Stone when you need it. The greater the size of the stone, the faster it can absorb spiritual power.”
“Why didn’t you take this out earlier?” When Wang Wen opened the box, he discovered a scroll in it. His eyes narrowed from laughing so hard. Mo Ran, who was standing next to him, drooled. He wanted to look, but he was pushed away.
The drone lowered its scanning beam and began counting down.
Wang Wen clutched the scroll tightly and waved goodbye to Darbus. He then followed Mo Ran to the next level.
He heard a mechanical voice before he vanished.
