Chapter 413: Origin Returning (I)
Deep within the mountains, in a concealed patch of dense forest, the sizzling sound of red-hot iron branding flesh echoed continuously, mixed with the man's muffled cries of agony. Jin Cheng's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Lin Zheyu with venomous hatred, as if he wished to devour him alive.Faced with Jin Cheng's resentful gaze, Lin Zheyu showed no reaction at all. He calmly used his crimson true origin to cauterize the man's wounds. If those wounds were not treated, the fellow would soon die.
"All right. From now on, I ask one question, and you answer one. If you choose not to speak, I will let you experience what it means to wish you were dead," Lin Zheyu said calmly.
He picked up the two storage pouches on the ground and toyed with them casually. Including the one taken earlier from the immortal cultivator of the Directorate of Celestial Observation, Lin Zheyu had seized three storage pouches in just two days.
However, the craftsmanship, material, and texture of these two storage pouches were clearly inferior to the one carried by the Directorate of Celestial Observation cultivator. Even someone as inexperienced as Lin Zheyu could sense their poor quality.
"Mmph... Who exactly are you?" Jin Cheng said in a low voice after the gag was removed from his mouth. Even now, he still could not believe that the target he and Ge Qing had been stalking had suddenly turned into a Foundation Establishment realm expert.
"You do not recognize me? If that is the case, why did you attack me?" Lin Zheyu asked curiously.
Has this fellow been frightened senseless to ask such a question?
"Your Excellency is a Foundation Establishment realm expert, correct? The one we were supposed to deal with this time was only a Grandmaster realm youngster. There may be some misunderstanding here," Jin Cheng said in a deep voice as he suppressed the fury in his heart.
He did not want to die. After struggling to cultivate all the way to the Martial Innate realm, he had joined the evil cult precisely to advance further and glimpse the path to Immortality. Jin Cheng refused to die so meaninglessly. He still trusted the priest, who was the spokesperson of the demon god. Since the priest had said their target was merely a Grandmaster, it could not be wrong. There must be some misunderstanding between them.
"Foundation Establishment realm?" Lin Zheyu said with some surprise.
So I am already this powerful. Or is it that the Foundation Establishment realm in this world is merely a minor, insignificant realm?
