Chapter 238: Emerging from the Depths
Amidst the relentless assault of numerous adversaries, two Foundation Building cultivators struggled to defend themselves for a short while before their Spiritual Weapons shattered.
A swarm of Poisonous Bees descended upon them, crawling over their bodies. With a few stings, the two cultivators stiffened and fell to the ground.
Wang Hong stepped forward, feeding each of them an antidote pill. He then delivered two powerful punches to their dantian, dispersing their Spiritual Power.
Wang Hong crouched down and removed the eerie masks from their faces.
"Is it you?"
This mid-level Foundation Building cultivator was not only recognized by Wang Hong but had also fought alongside him against formidable enemies in the past.
They had previously shared a Flying Boat, besieged by tens of thousands of flying Demonic Beasts, and had been fortunate enough to survive.
As for the other cultivator in the early stages of Foundation Building, Wang Hong didn't recognize him. He seemed to be a newcomer to Boundary City.Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m
Among the initial group of over three thousand Foundation Building cultivators, they might not have been close, but they were at least familiar with each other's faces.
"Wang Daoist friend, I apologize. We serve different masters, and I personally didn't want to be your enemy. It's just that I never expected you to conceal your true strength so well. We were all deceived by appearances."
In his memory, Wang Hong was friendly, possessed exceptional Alchemy skills, enjoyed fine cuisine, and had once roasted Demonic Beast meat for everyone on the Flying Boat while sharing drinks and food.
If circumstances allowed, he would rather be friends with Wang Hong.
"Wang Daoist friend, can we, for the sake of our past friendship, allow me a swift end?" The mid-level Foundation Building cultivator asked.
"That is certainly not a problem. However, I hope that, in light of our past friendship, you can also inform me of the mastermind behind this, as well as some other relevant information."
Wang Hong agreed seemingly straightforwardly, but the implication was that he would need to be provided with this information before granting a swift death. Otherwise, a painless demise would be impossible.
"You came here to kill me, and you expect me to show you friendship?"
"I won't easily fall for such childish persuasion. Please, Yan Daoist friend, tell me what you know."
Yan Xianghe then honestly recounted the entire sequence of events. As a peripheral member of the plot, he wasn't privy to many details.
However, when he reached the part where they originally intended to kill both him and his Elder Brother but later changed the target to just him because Elder Brother had already left, Wang Hong deduced that one of the Qi Clan members was the true mastermind behind the hiring of Shadow Kill.
With Yan Xianghe's confession complete, he looked at Wang Hong with hopeful eyes. After all the discussions, he hoped Wang Hong would spare his life.
Wang Hong's gaze shifted to the still unconscious Wen Lan and the lifeless body that had fallen to Yan Xianghe's hand. Both of these individuals had met their end because of Yan Xianghe.
If he spared Yan Xianghe, how could Wang Hong explain to Wen Lan, to his deceased subordinate, and to the rest of his followers? How could he maintain his authority and reputation?
Wang Hong glanced at Yan Xianghe and then at the remaining eight subordinates. He whispered softly, "Give him a swift end."
Upon hearing these words, Yan Xianghe's eyes, which had once held a glimmer of hope, instantly turned bleak, and he collapsed to the ground in resignation.
"Hahaha! Yan Xianghe, you spoke so much, but you're still doomed to die! Hahaha..."
The Qi Clan cultivator, seeing Yan Xianghe's fate, mocked and laughed from the sidelines. In response, one of Wang Hong's subordinates struck him in the face with a punch, knocking out several of his teeth.
Yan Xianghe made no resistance as one of Wang Hong's Foundation Building subordinates delivered a powerful blow that shattered his head, leaving his body lifeless. Wang Hong then arranged for Yin Ze to purchase a high-quality coffin to preserve the Qi stage cultivator. He intended to bring the remains back to Azure Void City for the deceased's family.
With the bodies properly taken care of, the group began to clean up the battlefield, collecting all the spoils and handing them over to Wang Hong.
At this point, everyone was wounded, except for Yin Ze. Wang Hong had initially allowed him to participate in the battle, but it had been a futile endeavor. Unlike the other subordinates, who were well-trained and coordinated, Yin Ze's involvement had been ineffective.
Wang Hong ordered him to hide and engage in sneak attacks, but against the Foundation Building cultivators on the battlefield, his efforts were as insignificant as scratching an itch.
Wang Hong instructed everyone to return and tend to their injuries, deferring discussions on other matters until they had recovered.
