Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Extinction of a Clan
Translator: 549690339
Upon seeing Chi Feng and the Chi family members all mysteriously disappear, Wang Ping’s pupils suddenly shrank.
However, he didn’t think too much and continued to stare at the luminescent screen, wanting to know the answer.
[Regarding this, your first thought was that it was done by the Li Family. You were furious, put on a mask and attacked the Li Family. When the Li Family questioned you about why you were attacking them, you didn’t answer, only saying that the Li Family should be destroyed. You killed more than half of the Li Family’s Innate Realm members.]
[While you were on a killing spree in the Li Family, the Li Family Ancestor finally came out and fought against you. Because your cultivation had broken through to the Spiritual Origin Realm and you had comprehended the Sword Spirit, even the Li Family Ancestor with a cultivation level of Spiritual Origin Realm Third Tier wasn’t your opponent and was killed by you. Afterward, you completely annihilated the Li Family, leaving no one behind.]
[Then, you went to the basement, attempting to find Chi Feng and the others, but found nothing, which left you unsettled. Finally, you discovered the Blood Devil Tracking Skill and hoped to use the blood pool in the basement to locate the Chi family members.]
[However, you still found nothing, as if the Chi family members had completely vanished from the world overnight. It was mysterious and chilling.]
“What’s going on here? If it wasn’t the Li Family, why did Chi Feng and the others suddenly disappear?”
Wang Ping couldn’t figure it out.
Although the Sword Spirit Sect master might be a suspect, it wouldn’t be in his power to do so.
After all, with his status in this simulation, there was no way the Sword Spirit Sect master could hide any actions from him.
To silently make all the Chi family members disappear, this method was too horrifying.
“Could it be the terrifying existence that cursed the Chi Family’s bloodline?” Wang Ping’s face changed, unable to calm down.
If it was that terrifying unknown existence, they indeed would have the ability to do this.
Even worse, if they wanted to, they could easily trigger the Bloodline Curse and kill the Chi family members.
But, could someone really live that long?
After all, the Chi family had escaped to the Central Plains a thousand years ago!
Including the time before the Chi family fled, had their enemy managed to live for a thousand or two thousand years!?
Even a Transcendent Realm cultivator couldn’t possibly have such an astonishing lifespan.
“I’ll ask Mr. Cai when I have the chance,” Wang Ping thought as his eyes glinted.
Transcendent Realm experts have been missing from the Central Plains for too long, and many records have been lost.
Although the village chief’s Chi family had a glorious past, according to him, they had almost faced Genocide several times, and many things had been disrupted. They might not even know the secrets of the Transcendent Realm
anymore.
Therefore, asking Cai Yonglong directly would be best.
However, he was still in the simulation, and it was night time, so Wang Ping didn’t plan to @Cai Yonglong now.
Of course, if he could get an answer during the simulation, that would be the best thing.
But considering his situation in the simulation, that would be difficult.
Wang Ping set aside his numerous thoughts and continued to look at the luminescent screen.
As he stared, the characters on the screen reappeared.
[Next, you thought of the Sword Spirit Sect master and his wife being in the same boat, thinking they might have had a hand in it. You secretly investigated and tried to look into the Sword Spirit Sect master.]
[However, the Sword Spirit Sect master noticed your actions, and angrily confronted you as to why you were investigating him. You no longer hid your intentions and directly confronted him. The Sect Master was astonished, not knowing how you learned that he was looking for the Chi family members. However, he felt that if he found the Chi family members, he would eventually need your alchemy services, so he admitted to his search but claimed he had found nothing.]
[Upon hearing the Sword Spirit Sect master’s words, you were extremely uncertain. You had no idea who could have done this if it wasn’t the Sword Spirit Sect master behind the scenes.]
[Very quickly, you calmed down, thought of the secret on the Chi family members, and sank into silence.]
[The Sword Spirit Sect master spoke again, hoping that you would keep the secret. You chose to ignore him.]
[Soon, the entire world learned of the Li Family’s annihilation at your hands.
Everyone was shocked, never imagining you could be so fierce and ruthless.
Meanwhile, Liu Yu, ruler of the Shu State, was extremely dissatisfied with you because the Li Family had been on his side, and now that they were wiped out, his power had been weakened. However, considering your identity as a Sword Spirit Sect Supreme Elder and a 4th Tier alchemist, Liu Yu couldn’t blame you too much.]
[Not only Liu Yu held dissatisfaction with you, but the Sword Spirit Sect master was also furious. His wife had been a member of the Li Family, and they were his supporters. As for the Sect Master’s wife, her hatred towards you was bone-deep, wishing to eat your flesh and drink your blood.]
[Both of them wanted to deal with you and let the Supreme Elders judge you. To this, you coldly retorted that the Li Family deserved it for destroying your disciple’s family. The Supreme Elders were shocked and couldn’t believe what had happened. Eventually, you told them the whole story, and the various reactions of the Supreme Elders revealed they hadn’t expecting these past events and were unaware of the collusion between the Sect Master and the Li Family.]
[The Sect Master was furious and argued fiercely. His faction supported the Sect Master, believing that you went too far. However, the Supreme Elders who were at odds with the Sect Master’s faction and owed you a favor supported you. In the end, both sides argued fiercely and nothing came of it.]
[Both the Sect Master and his wife bore deep grudges against you, planning to remove you, as they felt uneasy otherwise. Similarly, you were also considering how to eliminate this treacherous couple.]
[In Daya calendar’s year 502, three kingdoms fell, leaving only the Shu State, ruled by Liu Yu, and the Wu State, ruled by Sun Chang. At this point, the combined population of the two countries had fallen from one hundred million in the ancient times of Xia to just over ten million now, which could be described as living in dire straits. Not only had countless ordinary people died, but even Innate Realm and Spiritual Origin Realm cultivators found it difficult to survive unscathed, suffering heavy casualties.]
[Despite this, the two countries still showed no signs of ceasing war, and vowed not to rest until the enemy was annihilated. And you, watching the living beings suffer, could only drink wine in front of Bai Tianhong’s tomb, filled with regret, loneliness, and saying things like “If you were still alive, the world would have been peaceful long ago.” ]
[In Daya calendar’s year 503, the Sword Spirit Sect’s most powerful Supreme Elder, Bai Tianhong’s master, couldn’t stand by and watch the two countries continue to wage war, believing that it would lead to their own extinction. He took the initiative to abandon the Sword Spirit Sect’s thousand-year neutral position and chose to join the world, assisting the Shu State against the Wu State.]
[With the addition of a large number of experts from the Sword Spirit Sect, the scales of victory tilted instantly towards the Shu State, and it seemed that peace would return to the world of Daya once again..]
