Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Back to the battlefield of the two elders again...

Whoooosh!!!

Clang!

Bang!

Groooaaan!!!

Auuugh!!!

"Surrender, Old Mou-Suan! If you continue to be stubborn, your body will explode and disintegrate from this world. I don't want it to be like that!" Elder Zi-Liang did not want to kill Elder Mou-Suan in such a miserable state. At least, they were acquaintances and comrades in arms before.

Huh!

"Even if my body explodes and shatters into nothing, I'll take you with me, Old Zi-Liang!"

Yaaaaaaak!

However, Elder Mou-Suan refused to listen to Elder Zi-Liang's warning. He still gathered all of his energy and released it to drag Elder Zi-Liang to his death with him.

Sigh...

"Why are you so stubborn? If that's what you want… I'll help you, my old comrade!" Elder Zi-Liang did not expect Elder Mou-Suan to be so obstinate. Since the other party refused to listen and wanted to drag him to his death, he no longer had any need to be nice.

Yaaaaaaak!

Booooooom!!!

Groooaaan!!!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Arrrrrrgh!

The final clash was much more violent than the previous ones. It destroyed many houses and buildings around there. With their destructive energy, even the city wall had obviously cracked. If the battle did not end, the city wall in that area would be destroyed, leaving a large hole.

Besides, in the final attack, the effectiveness of Elder Mou-Suan's Blood Sacrifice for Life Energy Burn Secret Skill had completely worn off, giving Elder Zi-Liang a huge advantage. He was able to use his sword to cut off both Elder Mou-Suan's arms and create a large, deep wound on his abdomen.

"It's over, Old Mou-Suan! Because you have done too much evil, you have received this result. If you had followed the rules, you wouldn't have been in such a miserable state. Now, for you not to suffer, I'll help end your suffering!"

Yaaaaak!

Wait, Master Elder!

Hah!?

"What's wrong, Kid?!"

However, just as Elder Zi-Liang wanted to kill Elder Mou-Suan, Zheng-Fu shouted to stop him, interrupting the elder's move.

"He's still useful to me, Master Elder. Can I handle him?"

What Zheng-Fu wanted from Elder Mou-Suan was his memories. Zheng-Fu thought that since this elder had lived for over a hundred years, he must have had quite a lot of knowledge in his brain.

Ah!

Elder Zi-Liang frowned slightly when he heard that. He did not understand what Zheng-Fu still wanted to do with Elder Mou-Suan, who was in such a near-death state. He felt very hesitant to hand over his old comrade to Zheng-Fu to handle. He did not want Elder Mou-Suan to be tortured any further.

"I understand how you feel, but I really want him. I'll never do anything cruel or inhumane to him. I promise!" Zheng-Fu knew what Elder Zi-Liang was thinking. From Zi-Liang's actions and words, he knew that this elder was a man who loved justice and held his honor as his highest priority. Therefore, he promised that he would never do anything immoral to Elder Mou-Suan.

All right!

"Since everyone in Zi-Clan and Ma-Clan trusts you, I'll believe in your promise." Elder Zi-Liang thought for a moment before handing Elder Mou-Suan over to Zheng-Fu. But before he left, with a stern stare and a slight pressure, he warned Zheng-Fu, "However, if I find out that you have done something evil or despicable to him, I won't let you go either!"

"Of course! Master Elder, you can rest assured. I'll never break my word." Zheng-Fu assured. He was not afraid of Elder Zi-Liang's gaze and pressure at all. He could easily deal with a cultivator at Elder Zi-Liang's level. Although it would take a while to fight, he was confident that he could defeat the elder.

Umm!

"Then, I'll let you handle him. Now, I'll go take care of the city first. When everything is over, we can talk and get to know each other formally."

Pheeeeeeew!!!

Thank you, Master Elder!

As soon as Elder Zi-Liang finished speaking, he immediately soared out of the temporary battlefield between the two major clans' predecessors. Therefore, only Elder Mou-Suan, Zheng-Fu, and a few onlookers were left there.

"If you want to kill me, kill me now. Don't waste your time. You'll never know anything from me! Auuugh!"

At that moment, Eder Mou-Suan spoke in a fierce and unyielding tone. Even though he was badly injured, he still did not give up and would not cooperate.

"You don't have to tell me anything. I have a way to get information from you. Come on! Let's go find a quieter and more private place!"

Whooooosh!!!

Arrrrrgh!

But Zheng-Fu did not care what Elder Mou-Suan said. He already had a way to deal with stubborn people like this. However, he could not take action there. He then used energy to wrap Elder Mou-Suan's body and lift him to the empty tent.

Let go of me!

"You damn kid! Let me go now!" Elder Mou-Suan kept shouting.

"If you really dare, then kill me!" The elder tried to struggle out of Zheng-Fu's control while provoking Zheng-Fu with various insults, hoping to make Zheng-Fu put him down and end his life. Because Zheng-Fu's actions were a great humiliation and shame to him.

"If you want to struggle, then go ahead! If you want to scream, then scream! But I will never let you have your wish!"

However, Zheng-Fu did not listen to Elder Mou-Suan at all. He even sneered at the elder with a mocking face as he walked towards the nearest tent.

You... You evil kid!

"I never thought that Mou Clan Predecessor, who initially came as a ferocious lion, would turn into such a sick cat."

"This is what they call 'You reap what you sow.' For a villain like that bastard, it's just right!"

"That's right! If the loser today is Zi Clan…, do you think the peace we've had all along will still exist?"

"No, definitely not. How could it exist? If the Mou Clan were to replace the Zi Clan, Demon's Hill City would be nothing less than hell!"

That's right!

Serves you right, Mou Clan!

All Mou Clan should die!

Of course, people would side with the winners. Although some expressed their true feelings, many followed others to survive. Those latter groups did not want the Mou Clan to meet such an end. Since they had benefited from doing business with the Mou Clan for a long time. And it had been a very profitable business for them. So, if the Mou Clan met such an end, their business would be over as well.

However, some of them did not dare to side with the Mou Clan and offered to help them. They were just townspeople who were making a living. They had to follow the masses and betray the Mou Clan to survive.

Back inside the tent that Zheng-Fu had brought Elder Mou-Suan into...

Let go of me!

Let go of me now!

Auuuuugh!

Elder Mou-Suan was still struggling, and his mouth kept shouting from when Zheng-Fu started lifting him until he brought him into the tent. The more energy he used to struggle, the closer he got to death. And that was his purpose. Since he could not kill himself, this was the only way left.

"Don't you try to tire yourself out, Oldy! I have a hundred ways to prolong your life for as long as I want. So, ... cooperate with me willingly!"

Zheng-Fu knew what Elder Mou-Suan wanted to do, but he did not care. He had many medicines that could keep the elder alive for a while longer. So, he let the elder do whatever he wanted while he managed to hide the tent from outsiders.

You... You!

Elder Mou-Suan did not think Zheng-Fu would read his mind so quickly. He was shocked and began to fear. He felt that the young man in front of him was more of a demon than himself. And if he had a choice, he would not want to face this mysterious young man.

Tactical formation, start working!

Whooooosh!!!

In just a moment, Sealing Tactical Formation and Illusion Tactical Formation were created by Zheng-Fu's spell talismans that were thrown onto the ground. Although these two tactical formations were not high-level, they were effective enough to prevent the surrounding people from being able to sense and perceiving what he was going to do next.

"Well! It's time for us to find the truth, Great Predecessor Mou-Suan!"

Find the truth?!

"What is the damn truth you are trying to find out?! What the hell are you trying to do? Release me! Let me go!"

Blop!

[Spirit Seal Skill: Second Stage; Swallow]

Whooooosh!!!

Arrrrrgh!!!

Normally, Zheng-Fu would use the Spirit Seal Skill: First Stage, Truth-Searching, to search for the information he wanted first. But this time, he started by using the second stage immediately. Because he did not just want to take all of Elder Mou-Suan's memories, he also wanted to extract Elder Mou-Suan's energy. This skill could extract three to four parts of the victim's energy.

If the swallowing stage was completed, Zheng-Fu's energy level might break through another level and step into the fourth level of the Great Deity Stage. So, he had high hopes and intentions to swallow all of Elder Mou-Suan's energy and memories.

It could be said that this time, Zheng-Fu had gained a huge benefit compared to his previous investments. Not only was he able to destroy the powerful clan of the Demon Race in a first-tier city, but he had also gained the full trust of Zi Clan and Ma Clan. This would help him complete the Testing Tower Mission several times faster.

A few minutes later...

Not bad!

"I didn't expect this oldy to have so much knowledge. Good! Then I'll ask for all of your knowledge!"

Swallow madly!

Arrrrrgh!!!

After starting to swallow Elder Mou-Suan's memories, Zheng-Fu found that the elder had a lot of knowledge and memories that were useful to him. Even though there was more nonsense than useful things, he did not care and swallowed them even faster.
