Chapter 215: All Sins Turn to Ashes (Fifth Update)
It wasn’t just this Divine Officer.
At this moment, two Orochi Serpent Heads were also shaking with terror.
They were, after all, millennium Demon Gods, yet they had been torn apart by this man’s bare hands.
What level of cultivation did that require?
When did such a domineering person appear in this world?
“You… who are you?” one of the Serpent Heads asked.
Xue An didn’t speak, but simply squeezed his hand.
Boom.
This Serpent Head was crushed to pieces, dissipating like smoke!
Only then did Xue An turn to the other Serpent Head, “Now, can you tell me where the rest of your demon bodies are hiding?”
If this Serpent Head had a body, it probably would have pissed itself in fear.
“The demon bodies are scattered throughout Country R; we cannot contact them either. I beg you, spare my life!” The Serpent Head pleaded with a trembling voice.
Xue An discovered that the seal was not their doing.
He was also somewhat puzzled.
The Orochi Demon God was a lower-tier Demon God. Although to this world, it was already a top existence, even stronger than a Golden Immortal.
Yet, in ancient times, Orochi was already torn apart; the cultivation level of its remnants was at most that of a Loose Immortal.
With such a cultivation level, how did they cast such an overbearing seal?
Despite the confusion in his mind, Xue An still felt that as long as all the demon bodies of Orochi were found, the questions would naturally unravel.
“You’ve said as much as if you’ve said nothing at all!” Xue An said and then crushed the other Serpent Head with his hand as well.
With that, three of the Orochi Serpent Heads were gone.
Xue An then looked at the Divine Officer kneeling on the ground, stunned as if turned to wood.
“Seeking longevity but committing heinous crimes, today, I shall destroy your shrine!”
Xue An had just witnessed through the Divine Sense of Orochi many unbearable scenes.
It turned out that the reason Kyo-wa Shrine worshipped these two Orochi Serpent Heads was only to rely on the power of these Demon Gods to seek longevity.
To this end, they had harmed many innocents, hoping to offer them as food to the Demon God.
Xue An was not one to grieve for the plight of others, but such actions were enough to earn his disdain.
The Divine Officer was extremely frightened and, seeing the Orochi Serpent Heads being annihilated, fainted on the spot.
Xue An took four steps in the air.
Under each step, a Blood Lotus blossomed.
Soon, the Blood Lotus transformed into flames that completely engulfed Kyo-wa Shrine.
By the time Xue An reached the entrance,
a towering inferno had already begun.
Xue An casually lifted the seal, and An Yan, seeing her husband unharmed, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Upon seeing the raging flames engulfing Kyo-wa Shrine, she couldn’t help but express surprise,
“Husband, this…”
Xue An said indifferently, “All their numerous sins have turned to ash! Let’s go.”
Xue An led his wife and child away from the place.
Benqiao Meijia and Yin Huahui also came to their senses and hurriedly followed down the mountain.
All the while, Benqiao Meijia wanted to catch up with Xue An and strike up a conversation.
But Xue An and his family moved too quickly and soon disappeared from sight.
At that moment, Yin Huahui approached, “Miss Benqiao, this person set a fire and killed people; shouldn’t we hurry up and call the police?”
Benqiao Meijia gave him a cold glance, “You go call the police! Also, please don’t bother me anymore!”
Saying so, Benqiao Meijia left first.
An Yan stood in place, his face a mask of stupefaction.
He had gone to great lengths to invite Benqiao Meijia to visit this place for leisure.
But he had not anticipated that such an incident would occur.
Yet, as soon as he thought of Xue An’s almost ghostly methods, a shiver ran down Yin Huahui’s spine, and he didn’t dare bad-mouth him; instead, he scurried away dejectedly.
The annihilation of the Heavenly Palace shocked the entire Martial Arts World of Country R.
After all, it was a millenary sect that had been flattened overnight, which naturally caused a great sensation.
Great Sun Shrine.
Several top experts from Country R’s Martial Arts World and the shrine community were gathered here.
“Who could it be, to annihilate the entire Heavenly Palace within just one hour?” an elder said slowly, his voice carrying an implicit authority.
Sakata Kinji, the top expert who had been in charge of the Great Sun Shrine for decades, was rumored to have nearly attained Half-step Longevity.
“There is news that recently a Huaxia martial artist arrived in the Tokyo area, possessing formidable strength, and then this incident occurred. Could there be a connection?” said a ravishing, scantily clad woman with a sultry voice and voluptuously towering curves.
Songmu Feihua, the sect leader of the Flowing Flowers Sect, was also a powerful figure and was known as the Scorpion of Country R’s Martial Arts World.
She was incredibly beautiful, but her methods were exceptionally ruthless; the number of men who had died at her hands was not less than eight hundred if not a thousand!
“Heh, a Huaxia martial artist? Do you think that just by the hand of a mere Huaxia martial artist, a shrine can be destroyed in the blink of an eye?” a man with a dark expression sneered.
Daigen Takamasa from the Kyo-wa Shrine.
The people speaking were all top-tier individuals.
Upon hearing this, Songmu Feihua said, “Daigen Takamasa, do not underestimate Huaxia martial artists. It is said that this person killed Qianshan Yipye of the Kyoshin Meichi School with a single move!”
“Qianshan Yipye? Heh, just a defeated general, not worth mentioning!” Daigen Takamasa said with disdain, casting a covetous glance at Songmu Feihua.
This woman was truly a rare beauty!
At that moment, Sakata Kinji raised his hand and said in a deep voice, “What is this person’s name?”
“Xue An!” Songmu Feihua said solemnly.
Xue An?
This name seemed somewhat familiar!
The crowd was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
Someone said tremulously, “Could it be that… Xue An who extinguished a Sword Immortal with a single sword strike, and annihilated an Immortal Gate single-handedly?”
Everyone was shocked.
Two sharp lights burst forth from Sakata Kinji’s eyes, “Is it really him? Why has he come to Country R? And what’s more, why has he destroyed the Heavenly Palace? What is he trying to do?”
His voice carried a hint of panic that was not easily detectable.
Indeed, this top existence of Country R was also panicking now.
At this time, Songmu Feihua turned her gaze to Daigen Takamasa, who was looking embarrassed.
“Mr. Daigen Takamasa, now… do you think this person is still unworthy of your attention?” Her voice was full of mockery.
“Songmu Feihua, you…” Daigen Takamasa was somewhat irritated.
Indeed, he had not known it was Xue An.
By now, Xue An’s reputation had spread throughout the world.
Especially those near-miraculous deeds he had achieved, which had caused a stir in the Martial Arts Worlds everywhere.
Although Daigen Takamasa was arrogant, facing Xue An made him feel somewhat uneasy.
Sakata Kinji looked at Songmu Feihua, “Miss Songmu, since you are closest to Tokyo, could you perhaps inquire about some news first?”
With a few coquettish laughs, Songmu Feihua crossed her long, straight legs without any regard, “Sure, I am also very curious about this young Huaxia man! I want to see what kind of person he is, capable of such grace!”
Meanwhile, in a remote village in Country R, within a simple room,
a teenager with a sinister expression slowly opened his eyes. In front of him was a long saber, emitting a strong sense of foreboding.
As the teenager gently caressed the saber, he murmured, “Are you thirsting for blood?”
