Chapter 208: Devouring the Starry Sky, The Change in Zhou Tong’s Fortune Aspect
“Is your bloodline pure?”
Tang Qi asked fiercely, staring intently at Zhou Tong.
“I’m running a shop. Am I supposed to sell you a mixed bloodline?”
Zhou Tong smiled indifferently, unbothered.
“I’ll ask you again, is this bloodline preserved?”
He inquired again, his tone now laced with undisguised killing intent.
“Are you looking for trouble? Do you want to buy or not?”
In an instant, Zhou Tong’s aura changed, radiating a sense of authority mixed with murderous intent, crashing towards them like a tidal wave.
“Hehe… If it’s pure, I will definitely buy it. If not…”
As his words fell, Tang Qi struck, slashing at Sword Spirit Bloodline.
With a loud crack, the bloodline shattered and exploded in the void.
“You dare to strike my bloodline!”
“Not only that, but I also want to take you down!”
Tang Qi revealed a cruel smile, magic power erupting from him as he charged at Zhou Tong!
“Come on, I’ve been waiting for this!”
Zhou Tong no longer hid; since the other party took the first shot, the restraints of the laws on him would be minimized. It could only be said that Tang Qi was seeking his own demise.
A hum echoed.
As Tang Qi took the initiative, he was the first to suffer backlash from the laws, but a black light flashed between his eyebrows; it was the Devil King’s soul unleashing divine power, bracing against the backlash.
“This is it!”
Tang Qi trembled with excitement, having surpassed the most crucial barrier, and with his strength, killing the person before him would be effortless.
Because the Devil King had already stated that these shopkeepers were originally souls transformed from the secret realm, possessing the strength of the Life-Death Realm without corresponding combat power. They could never be his opponent.
However, he never expected that he was not facing that weak existence at all, but rather his destined nemesis!
“Six Combinations Annihilation Sword!”
The sword intent surged, wildly and fiercely, omnipresent and invincible!
With a sound of poof, a long sword pierced through Tang Qi’s body, killing him in a single move!
“This is impossible!!”
Tang Qi was horrified, not just him; even the Devil King within him was equally stunned!
“Adoptive father… this is not what you told me!”
Tang Qi stammered, blood flowing profusely, soaking the ground.
“Run! This person is no longer the original shopkeeper; he has long since taken his place!”
For some reason, the moment those words left his mouth, Tang Qi immediately felt a bone-chilling sensation, breaking free from the long sword and stumbling to escape.
“What a pity, so close…”
Zhou Tong shook his head. Just now, he wanted to continue attacking, but the laws had stopped him.
However, it was fortunate that the light red fortune of the opponent had faded a bit more. If this continued, it might soon turn golden.
With this thought, he could not help but gently stroke the law eye in the center of his brow.
“This purple bloodline is quite useful; I might as well keep it for myself.”
He muttered to himself, but the next moment he seemed to detect something abnormal and shivered.
“Something’s wrong! My fortune has changed!”
Zhou Tong immediately observed himself, discovering that within his fortune aspect, which had initially resembled a starless universe, an additional faint red star had appeared.
The color of this star was identical to Tang Qi’s fortune, indicating a connection.
“Could it be… hissing…”
After thinking for a moment, he could not help but gasp.
Just now, Tang Qi’s blood splattered onto him and transformed into this star.
Could it be that this is his fortune attribute, able to seize others’ fortune through blood staining?
“No way!”
Zhou Tong immediately denied this idea.
Previously, he had experienced significant killings; if his fortune had originally been able to devour others’ fortunes, this starless universe should have been filled with stars by now.
There could only be one explanation: the purple bloodline granted him the ability to devour fortune.
“It seems I underestimated it.”
Zhou Tong murmured, unable to suppress his joy.
…
On the other side, the Senior Apprentice Sister walked in the safe zone, attracting countless gazes.
A stunning beauty walking alone was enough to draw attention, especially with a little being perched on her shoulder, making the head-turn rate peak.
“Look, what is that thing?”
Someone whispered, pointing at Xiao Bai.
“Could it be a Dharmakaya?”
“How is that possible? That little thing obviously already possesses intelligence; it cannot be a Dharmakaya.”
Disregarding the discussions around her, the Senior Apprentice Sister quickened her pace, aiming for the nearest shop.
However, contrary to her wishes, an inconsiderate rogue blocked her path.
“Beautiful lady, please hold on. Perhaps we could get to know each other!”
A young man dressed in a white robe suddenly appeared, blocking her way.
“You are in my way; move aside!”
The Senior Apprentice Sister’s expression turned cold, causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.
“Wow… quite spicy indeed; I like it!”
The man fanned himself with a feather fan, manifesting as a cultured scoundrel, revealing his true nature immediately.
“I’ll be blunt: I’m interested in you and this little creature on your shoulder. Name your price; I’ll make you satisfied!”
Before his words fell, the Senior Apprentice Sister emitted a killing intent from her.
“Get lost, before I make a move!”
However, upon hearing this, rather than being frightened, the man grew even more excited.
“Alright, alright… so feisty! I like to train characters like you. Today, I’ll say it outright: no matter your backing, I, Ye Bufen, will have you!”
He revealed his identity, drawing surprised expressions from those around.
“Is it really Ye Bufen of the Xuanwu Clan!”
“He is the one who inherited the Xuanwu Pool’s legacy, isn’t he?”
“It’s actually him; this lady is in great trouble.”
“What trouble could there be? This is a safe zone; does he dare to act?”
Many sneered, arguing that under the laws, everyone was equal; who would dare act presumptuously?
“He really dares!”
Someone explained gravely: “As the heir of the Four Symbols Pool, he received the laws’ boon upon entering the city and can act against outsiders without facing punishment!”
Upon hearing these words, many turned pale and instinctively distanced themselves from Ye Bufen.
“How’s it going, beauty? You now understand my power, right? I advise you to know your place… and don’t make unnecessary struggles!”
As his words fell, members of the Xuanwu Clan surrounded her, their eyes locked on the Senior Apprentice Sister, as if she were already their prey.
Within the safe zone, they could do as they wished.
“Truly hopeless!”
The Senior Apprentice Sister deeply inhaled, no longer suppressing her killing intent.
“You’ve missed your chance; since that’s the case, I’ll send you to the King of Hell to repent!”
“Bitch, I see you’re asking for a beating!”
Ye Bufen was enraged, swinging his palm towards the Senior Apprentice Sister.
“Roar!!”
At that moment, Xiao Bai jumped out, launching a punch at him!
