Chapter 498: Chapter 415: Acquiring the Wolf Vein Again Chapter 498: Chapter 415: Acquiring the Wolf Vein Again “What’s going on? Why did his Divine Fire’s power suddenly become so strong!”
Hannah only saw a flash of golden light in the sea, followed by a vast expanse of black flames quickly spreading like ink, easily severing all the tentacles.
The seawater in the Ghostly Sea Area was also energy rather than real seawater, so no steam was generated.
But under the intense power, the surface of the sea trembled, and then suddenly began to drop at a visibly rapid speed!
“What is he doing?” Hannah watched the descending sea level, faintly understanding the Demon Soul’s intentions, but feeling even more uncertain. “Does he intend to burn the Ghostly Sea Area dry? How is that possible? Even Radiant Moon couldn’t do that!”
However, as more Black Flame surged out of the Demon Soul’s body into the sea, the surface of the sea descended at an even more astonishing speed.
And as the seawater continued to disappear, Hannah’s face grew increasingly pale.
“Roar!…”
The sea monster opened its mouth and let out a low-frequency roar.
But in that open mouth were three long tongues covered in flesh spikes, looking quite ferocious.
Yet mere roars and scares could not intimidate the Demon Soul, merely a display of impotent fury.
The Undead Evil Fire fully unfolded, filling most of the sea area. It didn’t take long before the seawater receded away from the Demon Soul.
After a while, the water receded over the sea monster’s head, torso, feet…
The black water had completely disappeared, leaving only the whistling, undiminished Undead Evil Fire in the area!
The Undead Evil Fire excelled in endurance!
“How… how is this possible!”
Hannah’s face turned ashen. Such a scene was even more shocking than seeing Lord Blake’s true strength firsthand!
“Now… you are the lamb to be slaughtered.”
The Demon Soul raised a hand and pointed, causing the surging Evil Fire to roar and burn onto the sea monster.
“Roar!”
Desperate and furious roars emanated from its mouth. Without the protection of seawater, the massive sea monster could no longer withstand the Divine Fire.
In just a short moment, the sea monster turned to ashes and completely disappeared.
The Demon Soul wiped away the ash drifting in front of him and turned, walking step by step toward the ashen-faced Hannah, who was suffering from the backlash of the Power of Soul.
At this moment, Hannah was staring closely at the Demon Soul, his eyes now devoid of fighting spirit.
Taking a deep breath, Hannah asked, “Were Chad and Dominic also killed by you?”
The Demon Soul nodded, “You could say that.”
Hannah’s pupils trembled as he was momentarily disoriented. Then a hint of savagery surfaced in his eyes.
“Lord Blake will avenge us…!”
“Hiss!”
Before he could finish his sentence, the Demon Soul had already raised the Demon Saber and stabbed through his body.
“It would be best if he came,” the Demon Soul said with a cold smile. “I would very much look forward to clashing with a Star Envoy again!”
“Again?”
Hannah’s pupils contracted as he stared intently at the red-eyed youth before him.
The Demon Soul emotionlessly twisted the long saber, and blood spurted from Hannah’s mouth. The divine light in his eyes rapidly dimmed, and he hung lifelessly on the saber.
With his death, the Ghostly Sea Area also dispersed, and the world brightened once again.
The Demon Soul retracted the Divine Fire and dissolved the Golden Flame Burning Body, his face immediately turning pale, and his aura quickly declined.
“The consumption was significant…”
This was the first time since Shining Star that he had unleashed the full power of the Undead Evil Fire, the Golden Flame Burning Body, and the Void Evil Displaying Sanctity without regard to consumption.
Fortunately, this breakthrough had significantly enhanced his overall strength and recovery speed. It would probably take only half a day to recover significantly.
The Demon Soul grabbed Hannah’s body, took off his ring, and began searching him.
“Hmm? Wolf Vein?” The Demon Soul’s lips curled as he looked at the Blue Crystal, flowing with a yellowish aura, that he had found on Hannah’s body. “It really is a Wolf Vein!”
Although the Demon Soul, due to the distance, could not receive messages, he was unaware that the Qingming Realm needed to absorb Wolf Vein after the birth of the Phoenix Vein.
However, the Demon Soul knew very well the value of the Wolf Vein. Even bringing it back to the Sky Patrol Department would exchange for many items.
Carefully storing the Wolf Vein, the Demon Soul casually discarded Hannah’s corpse and began searching the remains of the other two bodies.
Although no Star Vein was found, these subordinates were indeed wealthy.
In the Space Rings, each had wealth exceeding a million Star Stones and countless Star Cores and materials…
“Red Flow Fire Essence?”
The Demon Soul’s eyes showed a trace of surprise. Such a good item was still there.
“Maybe, consider refining a handy Fire Element Star Artifact…”
At the last North Pole City trade fair, he had obtained the Heavenly Fallen Purple Iron from Lin Chongyun, and now he had the Red Flow Fire Essence.
If he could find some more Fire Element materials and enlist the help of a Refining Master from the Miracle Workshop, he might be able to create an Epic Fire Element Star Artifact!
The Demon Soul pondered in silence and then slightly sensed, heading toward the direction of his main body…
Somewhere in the New Dust Realm, in a camp of Qiguang Country.
A handsome young man with fair skin and short dark green hair sat facing a beautiful girl with twin ponytails.
At this moment, however, the beautiful girl’s aura was chaotic, and an unnatural paleness lingered on her face.
These two were none other than Capricorn Blake and Taurus Fafran from the Twelve Palaces!
“So, Felix returned to the Holy Temple for treatment with severe injuries?” Blake asked.
Fafran responded indifferently, “Yes, the Star Lord of Great Flame does have some strength. Even with Felix and me working together, we had to exert almost all our power.”
At this, a hint of seriousness flashed in Fafran’s eyes.
Blake chuckled, “It seems we underestimated them before. Luckily, we took action together for precaution this time.”
“Yes.” Fafran nodded slightly.
“Moreover, you will undoubtedly receive significant rewards from the Holy Temple for this great achievement.”
Fafran said flatly, “You too will receive a reward for restraining the other person.”
“That won’t be comparable to you two.” Blake smiled and was about to say more when he suddenly frowned, turning his hand to take out a palm-sized circular Crystal Plate.
On this Crystal Plate, golden, red, and purple Spirit Light flashed intensely. Soon, the three lights dimmed one after another.
Watching this scene, Fafran’s eyes twinkled in surprise.
Blake’s expression darkened.
“I was away for only a moment, and they were all killed… useless trash!”
Not long ago, Blake noticed the disappearance of Chad and Dominic’s Star Power Marks, indicating their deaths.
Initially, he didn’t care much—losing two subordinates wasn’t a big deal. He could easily find replacements, as many aspired to be his subordinates.
But he hadn’t anticipated that even Milou, Mark, and his most trusted Hannah would die, almost simultaneously.
This likely meant they were killed by the same group who killed Chad and Dominic.
Blake never considered that it might be a single person, as all Star Lords in the New Dust Realm were occupied by him and his companions. If another Star Lord had entered, they would not have gone after Chad’s group.
Fafran said indifferently, “It seems your luck isn’t very good, Blake.”
Blake’s face was gloomy, “No matter, I’ll just pick a few more later.”
“Finding one or two is fine, but finding five might mean varying quality of subordinates.”
In the Twelve Palaces, each Star Envoy could select up to five subordinates for their use.
Blake said, “If there are none suitable, then so be it. They are merely servants to be used. After all, you only have Noke as your subordinate.”
Fafran glanced outside, where a tall, handsome, blond man leaned on his Knight Sword, standing straight at the door.
Seeing Fafran and Blake looking his way, the blond man elegantly bowed before returning to his stance.
Fafran replied casually, “That’s because Noke is more competent than other subordinates, so one is enough.”
Blake took a few more glances at Noke and nodded, “Direct lineage of the Astrea Family, indeed outstanding.”
The Astrea Family was one of the Five Great Families of Qiguang.
Blake withdrew his gaze, frowning in thought.
More important than whether suitable subordinates could be found was the fact that “all subordinates were killed.”
This had never happened to any Star Envoy in the Twelve Palaces, undoubtedly bringing great shame to Blake!
Letting the matter rest would bring ridicule from other Star Envoys and contempt from Lord Reinhardt.
Therefore, he had to take action!
Besides killing more Special Envoys of Great Flame, he also had to eliminate those who killed his subordinates.
But the problem was identifying who killed them.
Having people from the Holy Temple investigate might not yield results…
Fafran suddenly said, “After this, Felix will return to the Holy Temple for treatment, and more Star Envoys will come. Rumor has it, Ashley will join us…”
No more explanation was needed. Fafran implied Blake should seek Ashley later.
“Ashley, huh…”
But Blake raised an eyebrow, seemingly uninterested in her.
Fafran, without further words, stood up and walked out.
Noke, standing at the door, followed behind her…
