Chapter 167: The Life-Slaughter Demon Lord (7)
Su Chen gazed at the revived Murong Family saint weapon—a pair of Golden Dragon Truncheons that emanated a terrifying dragon might. They had answered the call of the Murong Family's soul incantation, but with Murong Ying dead, the truncheons lost the guidance of the Murong bloodline and fell silent once more.
The Murong Family's ancestor had been a remarkable figure. He had slain a pure-blooded Saint Dragon and forged its body into this saint weapon. Fearing that his descendants might not be able to suppress the Golden Dragon Truncheons after his unexpected death, he had erased the weapon's spirit before passing away. Only those of Murong blood could awaken it.
Su Chen glanced at Murong Ying's corpse. In his previous life, he had spent thousands of years comprehending demonic patterns. Although he had not fully mastered them, he had improved the Heaven Swallowing Earth Devouring Divine Art slightly on that foundation.
Several days later, Murong Ying's body vanished. Su Chen had seized the Murong Family bloodline and easily used it to take control of the Golden Dragon Truncheons—a powerful Saint King weapon. This would serve as his trump card, one that gave him the confidence to face the Life-Slaughter Saint King and Xiao Sha directly.
He also looted every treasure within the entire Saint's ruins.
Outside the ruins, far too many people were still waiting.
"Someone has come out!"
Everyone turned their eyes toward the other side of the heavenly chasm.
"It's Murong Ying from the Flowing Cloud Sword Pavilion! He made it out!"
