A Little Fairy Wants to Play Dead
For the sake of Taiping God, I’ll fight to the end! Another man stepped forward, shouting, "Believe in Taiping, and you shall attain immortality!"
Before he could finish his words, a hole was pierced through his neck, and blood gushed forth.
Pfft!
Pfft!
Pfft!
Every person who charged at Chen Anlin was swiftly dealt with by him. His speed was astonishing; Sun Dabiao could barely catch a glimpse of the sword's trajectory.
As he watched more and more people fall, Sun Dabiao grew anxious and shouted, "All together now! Attack him! Whoever kills him will be rewarded with ten Immortal Elixirs!!!"
Immortal Elixirs!!!
Upon hearing this, those who had hesitated suddenly froze. Some even began to breathe heavily. The Immortal Elixir was a prized treasure. Consuming it would give them an exhilarating sensation, as if they were soaring through the skies, refreshing their spirits and making them forget all hunger and fatigue!
Anyone who had ever consumed an Immortal Elixir could never forget that feeling. For just one elixir, these people would be willing to do anything.
In an instant, some individuals had their eyes gleaming red, fixated on Chen Anlin. A few seventh and eighth-tier experts even hefted their weapons and surrounded him.
Sun Dabiao grinned widely. "Kid, you're still too inexperienced. Even if your strength is decent, I have the numbers on my side. Do you see? What do you have to fight against me?"
Chen Anlin snorted coldly and eliminated the circle of people around him.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Blood sprayed everywhere.
At the same time, Sun Dabiao and two women behind him were also preparing to strike. Although Sun Dabiao couldn't discern Chen Anlin's exact strength, he could tell that his swordsmanship was exceptional. If it came down to a direct confrontation, he might be at a disadvantage. So he took out a jade vial and hurled it at Chen Anlin as he approached.
Bang!!
The jade vial shattered in mid-air, releasing a wave of dark blue mist that spread everywhere. Some villagers who inhaled this noxious gas immediately clutched their throats and fell to their knees in agony, blood streaming from their faces.
At this point, Sun Dabiao no longer cared about the lives of his own men.
However, for Chen Anlin, his sword energy acted like an impenetrable net, blowing away all the poisonous powder. The toxic mist quickly expanded, engulfing the surrounding villagers.
In an instant, cries of despair filled the air until only Sun Dabiao and his two female guards remained standing.
"Damn it! Kill him!"
With gritted teeth, the two women charged at Chen Anlin.
Sun Dapiao seized the opportunity to unleash his Iron Claw technique, his dark claws lunging toward Chen Anlin. Just as the claws were about to grab Chen Anlin's arm, a sinister smile spread across his face.
Having endured the trials of toxic waters and poisonous sands, his hands had long since become impervious to all poisons and blades. However, at that moment, Chen Anlin lightly tapped his sword, and a sharp pain shot through Sun Dapiao's hands. To his astonishment, the Iron Claws he took pride in had transformed into soft, boneless phoenix talons.
It turned out that the bones within his flesh had been shattered in an instant. Sun Dapiao howled in agony as he clutched his hands, and Chen Anlin darted forward, thrusting his sword directly at him.
With a piercing sound, the yellow flash of the blade pierced Sun Dapiao's abdomen. He gripped the hilt tightly, twisting it savagely before pulling it out, blood and entrails gushing forth.
Though Sun Dapiao appeared ruthless and bold, upon seeing his own injuries, he was so frightened that he wet himself. With a pitiful scream, he collapsed onto the ground, instinctively reaching for a pain-relief pill but realizing that his hands were gone.
"Help me! Help me!" he cried out in desperation.
No one could have predicted that just moments ago he had been boasting about how wonderful the Peaceful Sect was at protecting its followers; now he found himself in such a dire situation.
Two women turned and fled in terror as Chen Anlin unleashed two sword energies. They gasped softly before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
After confirming there were no more living souls around, he moved to the back of the house. The fields behind had been flattened, revealing a large pit dug into the ground. As he approached, a strong stench of blood assaulted his senses.
With a grim expression, Chen Anlin reached the edge of the pit where decaying and fresh corpses lay haphazardly strewn about. Blood and viscous fluids mixed together created a nauseating sight.
This was the blood pool of the Peaceful Sect, a place for refining blood pills. Chen Anlin prided himself on not being a good person, but witnessing such a scene made him frown and fueled his disdain for the Peaceful Sect even more.
Years ago, when the Empress suppressed the Peaceful Sect, their arrogance had been quelled. Yet in just a few short years, they had begun to rise again from the ashes. If this continued, even if Xiao Chen were dealt with, the Peaceful Sect would surely cause more chaos.
At that moment, Zhou Tong and Yang Dou arrived late with Su Menghan. Upon seeing the horrific scene before them, Zhou Tong and Su Menghan immediately retched. Yang Dou had participated in campaigns against the Peaceful Sect in earlier years and was less shocked by such sights.
Just as Chen Anlin prepared to destroy this place, he suddenly felt movement from within his spatial ring.
"Hmm?" He raised his hand to look at the spatial ring he had received from Xiao Chen. Since acquiring it, there had been no signs of activity from the foreign celestial being inside. But now that they were at this blood pool, she seemed to stir.
Xiao Chen encountered someone from the Peaceful Sect again? Hurry up and check on the blood pill! The foreign celestial being strained to speak but only realized after a moment that Xiao Chen was no longer present; it was Chen Anlin who wore the spatial ring.
Xiao Chen is dead! The foreign celestial being gasped in shock.
"Do you want the Blood Pill?" Chen Anlin's heart stirred as he thought that perhaps this Blood Pill could replenish his soul power.
The Extraterrestrial Fairy immediately fell silent, attempting to feign death.
"If you keep pretending, I'll throw the spatial ring into this cesspool, and you'll have to live in it until your soul power runs out."
Chen Anlin's threat clearly had an effect; the Extraterrestrial Fairy quickly said, "Let's talk things over. The previous incident was caused by Xiao Chen. I advised him not to go against you, but he wouldn't listen!"
"Oh, is that so? You want the Blood Pill here?"
"Yes, it can replenish my soul power."
"You wish!" Chen Anlin sneered.
"I am an Extraterrestrial Fairy, do you understand? As long as you obey me, I guarantee that you will cultivate immortality!"
Cultivating immortality—she believed that this condition would surely make Chen Anlin obedient like Xiao Chen.
"Fairy??"
Chen Anlin scoffed. "Yes, yes, you're an Extraterrestrial Fairy, but right now you're my captive. If you want me to listen to you, you're dreaming."
"What do you want then?" The Extraterrestrial Fairy's expression turned cold; she hadn't expected Chen Anlin to be so domineering.
After all, she was a fairy. Anyone who saw her had to treat her with respect to gain her favor and benefits.
She never expected Chen Anlin to break the mold.
"I want you to obediently listen to me from now on."
The Extraterrestrial Fairy snorted coldly. "You really think too highly of yourself."
Chen Anlin casually picked up a piece of firewood from the nearby campfire and said nonchalantly, "That’s not up to you. Either submit or taste this burning stick."
The Extraterrestrial Fairy fell silent, choosing to ignore him.
Chen Anlin wasn't in a hurry; he slowly began to gather the Blood Pills in the area, collecting a total of several pieces.
Afterward, they returned overnight and informed He Lin about what happened here.
Only then did He Lin bring troops over.
Chen Anlin had come alone because he suspected that there might be traitors from the Taiping Sect within the government. If he had notified He Lin in advance, it might have led to people escaping from here. He wanted all of them caught in one net.
Afterward, Chen Anlin stayed at a residence arranged for him by Zhang Shan.
To deal with the Extraterrestrial Fairy later on, Chen Anlin refused the company of Su Menghan and Zhou Tong and chose to live alone.
The two girls had no choice but to sulk in their room and ended up sleeping together.
"Little Fairy, I've got some delicious food for you!"
Chen Anlin's consciousness entered the spatial ring and called out.
The space within this ring was vast.
Given his status, his storage bag was quite substantial. A premium storage bag could hold the equivalent of three large trucks. In contrast, an ordinary storage bag could only accommodate the size of a van. However, this spatial ring was different; it could store as much as three football fields and had the added benefit of preserving elixirs and food.
Due to its vast capacity, if the otherworldly fairy wanted to hide, she would need to be located. Chen Anlin scanned with his soul power and quickly discovered the otherworldly fairy hiding in a corner.
"What do you want? I’ve already told you, if you think you can make me submit, don’t even think about it. At most, we can cooperate," the otherworldly fairy maintained her aloof demeanor.
"Cooperate? Well, you need to have the qualifications to cooperate with me," Chen Anlin replied as he casually picked up an item.
The Soul Striking Rod.
Upon seeing it, the otherworldly fairy immediately recognized it, her pretty face unchanged. "Oh, you recognized it."
"It’s impossible! How do you have that?"
Chen Anlin shrugged. "Guess."
Before entering the spatial ring, he had spent three thousand fortune points in the Fortune Vessel to exchange for this Soul Striking Rod to deal with Bai Yu Fairy.
[The Soul Striking Rod can strike at soul bodies; holding it allows one to touch soul bodies.]
"Now I’m giving you a choice! You can either choose this Soul Striking Rod or choose me."
As he spoke, he stepped closer to Bai Yu Fairy while holding the rod.
"You won’t get away with this!"
"Then let’s see how you handle the taste of the Soul Striking Rod."
Chen Anlin snorted coldly and struck down hard.
"Ah! Don’t hit me! Please, I... I..."
