Chapter 1488: The Warm Blood of a Traitor

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“This is a good drink!” Bai Long was bleary while he was looking at Sun Yunzhu. “Brother Sun... How long has it been since the last time we stay together and drink like this?”

Sun Yunzhu had a weird expression in his eyes and said, “It feels good when things go well. I feel good too. Brother, you are a good man... Hah hah... The luckiest thing that happened in my life is to meet you.”

Bai Long was so drunk that he couldn’t even sit tight. He nodded and said, “Me too.”

Maybe he nodded too hard, so he fell off the chair, but he was still laughing.

“Brother... What is wrong? Are you okay? Why are you getting down to the table?” Sun Yunzhu looked at Bai Long with a flash of viciousness in his eyes. He then mumbled while laughing a bit, “You... Are you drunk? We didn’t drink that much, did we? Are you falling down incapacitated because of liquor?”

Bai Long lied on the floor and kept smiling with a pair of bleary eyes. “Well... What... What is happening to me... I am good at handling liquor... Why do I get drunk so easily... That is... Oh?”

He held the floor with both hands and tried to stand up. No matter how he pushed, he couldn’t get up.

Sun Yunzhu laughed loudly and walked over. “Brother, you are so blotto! You are not as good as me, apparently...” He staggered over and reached both hands to hold Bai Long up.

Bai Long chuckled and reached his hand over, but then powerlessly fell down. “No... I am so blotto...”

“Hah hah hah hah...” Sun Yunzhu was laughing so loud. Suddenly, he stood straight and a flash of cold light shined around his hand.

Bai Long was shocked and tried his best to move backward.

Puff!

A short but exquisite knife stabbed right below Bai Long’s chest.

Blood went out.

The knife got into him from the front of his body and pierced out on the back.

It had cut him through.

Apparently, Sun Yunzhu stabbed him with full force.

Sun Yunzhu was like a crazy bull rushing ahead. He was pushing Bai Long forward fast!

“Why... Why?” Bai Long’s hands regained its strength. He grabbed the knife tightly in both hands. A lot of blood ran out and splashed everywhere.

His entire body was moving backward because Sun Yunzhu kept pushing him. Finally, he hit the wall. Dust fell off the roof.

He stared at Sun Yunzhu with a pair of widely opened eyes. It seemed he was waiting for an answer.

He wouldn’t die in peace if he didn’t get the answer!

Sun Yunzhu didn’t stop when he saw Bai Long got hit. The knife was tightly held by Bai Long, so Sun Yunzhu let go of the handle. Afterward, he took out an ax with his left hand. When he was about to hack Bailong down, he saw the sad eyes of Bai Long. It seemed to touch the soft part of his heart, but then he fiercely said, “Old Bai, don’t blame me... I am doing this for the future of my family. There are always sacrifices on the road to greatness.”

“You made me do this, Old Bai!”

Bai Long said, “I even gave you the dan bead that could save my life... I gave up my life for your family... Why... Why would you do this? Hah hah hah... Sun Yunzhu, you are such a cruel man!”

Sun Yunzhu viciously smiled and said, “You gave it to me without hesitation. That just doesn’t make sense. I have to kill you... With that supreme dan bead, I will become one of the most wealthy men in the City of Chaos... I can hire more powerful cultivators! Just think about it. What if I hire some people who are more powerful than you, and you are at a higher position than them... You have done too much for us... How do I assign the resources to you all? Should I pay more to them, or you?”

“If I choose you, they will lose faith in me. If I choose them, people will call me an ungrateful man!”

Sun Yunzhu actually slightly bowed and said, “There is only one way to make it work. You have to die! Old Bai, I am sorry. Don’t worry, I will burn incense for you every year... You are never a rich man, but I will make you rich when you live in the nether world.”

“If there is a nether world, you will be a millionaire! I promise.”

Sun Yunzhu took a deep breath and said, “Old Bai, just rest in peace. It is good for both you and me. You should have died a long time ago. I saved you. Now, please give it back to me!”

Bai Long spat out a mouthful of blood, and painfully said, “What is happening to me... I can’t move...”

“The liquor... It is the Drunk God...” Sun Yunzhu said, “I added some Thousand Days Scent. It is never too circumspect to prepare things like this... You...”

He then made a sigh and said, “Old Bai, you should be a little more powerful than me in cultivation. If I don’t use poison, how can I possibly kill you? What should I do? You must understand...”

At this moment, Sun Shaoping stepped through the door and said fiercely, “Father, why do you keep talking to the f*cking slave. Just kill him before anything goes wrong.”

“Slave... Heh heh...” Bai Long laughed painfully.

Sun Yunzhu shouted, “Old Bai, rest in peace!”

The ax was shining with cold light, and it slashed down on Bai Long!

All of a sudden...

Bai Long started to move backward fast. Sun Yunzhu’s ax slashed down quickly, but Bai Long moved even faster!

He was faster than lightning.

He was pushed to the wall on his back earlier, but suddenly had turned around and moved away from the wall!

The knife left his body and fell to the floor. He seemed to be fine and just kept moving backward. As the knife got off his chest, he started to rush forward like a ghost.

When he was dashing ahead, he abruptly raised up one hand!

With one thundering hand strike and a cracking sound, he had broken Sun Shaoping’s wrist. After that, he turned around and pulled Sun Shaoping over, holding his throat with one hand.

“No, please don’t...” Sun Yunzhu saw his son in danger. He thought Bai Long was definitely going to die, but all of a sudden, his son was in danger. He had no idea what happened, but before saying anything, he watched Bai Long kill his son. Bai Long’s eyes turned sharp and fierce, and then he broke Sun Shaoping’s neck with a twist.

He did not hesitate!

After that, he kicked the dead body of Sun Shaoping away and pushed it to Sun Yunzhu.

Sun Yunzhu was rushing over like a mad man, but it couldn’t bring his son back to life.

Bai Long’s face turned expressionless again.

He grabbed the air, and a cloud of white smoke appeared. Afterward, he slapped the smoke, and it broke into pieces!

Sun Yunzhu was shocked. He had no idea what was going on!

He had no idea why Bai Long was suddenly so powerful. He wondered what that smoke meant...

“I don’t think you know what I am doing!” Bai Long blandly smiled and wiped the blood on his hands with his sleeves. He raised up his head with his colorless face and said, “That white smoke, it was your son’s soul. It is said that everything ends when one dies. Well, sometimes it doesn’t. When somebody dies, his soul remains for quite some time before it eventually goes to the next life...”

“I just broke your son’s soul. Which means he is thoroughly dead.”

Bai Long blandly said, “Do you know why I did that? Simple. I want you and your entire family to die and never have the chance to live again!”

“It will become a better world without people like you!”

“People like you disgust the world!”

Sun Yunzhu looked at everything that changed, especially Bai Long, the horrible man. He kept stepping backward with both eyes filled with fear and said in a shaking voice, “Why? How come...”

“Oh, you don’t understand why I wasn’t put down by your lovely poison?” Bai Long smiled bitterly, “Sun Yunzhu, here is what I want you to know... If you didn’t try to kill me... if you didn’t do it... I would just leave, and you could have the supreme dan.”

“No matter how vicious you are to me, you saved my life. I can’t deny it. I can’t be ungrateful.”

“Decent men never complain. I have been stepping back, showing you respect again and again... I even gave you the thing that can save my life...” Bai Long painfully said, “Why do you have to kill me? Why do you have to be so cruel?”

“Why?”

Bai Long sadly looked at Sun Yunzhu and said, “Why do you have to make me do this? Why?”

Sun Yunzhu’s face turned green, and then he rushed over with a bitter shout.

“I am going to kill you!” He was like a raging lion with his hair flowing on his shoulder and showing his teeth. What a horrible man!

“Your knife seemed to cut through my body...” Bai Long casually stepped aside and said, “Did you think you can hurt me when I am alerted? You don’t even know how capable I am!”

“You are wrong... We have practiced many times. Do you think I am just a little more powerful than you... Sun Yunzhu, you must know that...”

Bai Long said with a sneer in his eyes, “When practicing with you, I only use ten percent of my full power because I don’t want to kill you by accident.”

“You think we are roughly the same...” Bai Long laughed and said, “You should know that there is a whole world between you and me...”

“You are too weak. You have no idea how high-level cultivators can move the inner organs. Your knife did cut through my body, but it didn’t cause any fatal damage. The blood was true, but it really didn’t mean anything...” Bai Long looked sad, and he said, “You think that was a fatal strike, but it was merely a joke.”

“The liquor and the poison... They wouldn’t work on me... My power is strong enough to resist that weak poison. The Seven Flowers Poison would also eat the other poison as well!”

Bai Long laughed and said, “The Seven Flowers Poison will eat any other poisons to strengthen itself. It is well recorded in the Poison Ranking List. You must know it, don’t you? What a shame. You have no idea what poison I got. I have been poisoned for years, and you kept talking about finding a cure for me. Well, you did not even know what poison was in me. Sun Yunzhu, I feel sad...”

“Sun Yunzhu.” Bai Long seemed to be more grieved. He said, “I am in pain, not because I am going to kill you, but because I am forced to kill the man who saved me!”

“I am a righteous man all my life. I never repudiate a debt. I always pay my debt!”

“However, I have done all that I could to return the favor. You just can’t get enough!”

“You made me a traitor!”

“You made me go against my own heart!”

He painfully said, “Thank you, Sun Yunzhu, for saving my life!”

Before his last word could be said, he stopped stepping aside and just stood up straight like a mountain. Facing Sun Yunzhu, he made a palm strike and hit Sun Yunzhu right on the forehead.

Bai Long was so powerful that Sun Yunzhu couldn’t get away from that killing strike!

- Puff! –

Sun Yunzhu turned stiff. The next moment, his head was like a big watermelon that was smashed by an iron hammer, breaking into pieces!

A cloud of white smoke flew up.

Bai Long seemed to hesitate, but then he slowly closed his eyes and reached out a hand.

With a sound, the smoke broke as well.

“I am not going to leave you a chance to disgust the world again.” Bai Long stood in the middle of the pool of blood on the floor, and then eventually walked out.

He was not reluctant to leave this place at all.

Like a flow of light smoke, he moved to Sun Yunzhu’s study room.

In the room, there was a closet which was made of some special metal. Sun Yunzhu always kept his treasures in this closet.

Bai Long rushed into the room without hesitation and grabbed on the iron closet and broke a hole on it. The cloud of the Supreme Dan flew out. Bai Long grabbed it with his hand and directly put it into his mouth.

“I... What should I do next?”

Bai Long hesitated and then thought of the Dark Evil Spirit and the young master.

The master was generous and elegant.

He was such a wonderful man even as an enemy.

Bai Long admired the young master.

His eyes flashed and said, “He gave me the chance to live, and I should spend the rest of my life following him!”

The next moment, he rushed up to the sky like a whirlwind. After dashing through the sky, he was gone!

The closet that was full of money and treasures fell on the floor in the middle of the yard. Countless coins fell on the floor.

Bai Long decided to let the people in the Sun Family live and die in nature.

...

On the other hand, while the Dark Evil Spirit went for Bai Long, Qiu Luo was having a negotiation somewhere.

He was now fifty percent back to his prime. As he talked, he was steady and calm. The old beggar was gone.

His opponent was quite oppressed because Qiu Luo was doing a good job.

When two sides were negotiating, one side always oppressed the other!

Ye Xiao and Qiu Luo wanted to buy a house which was owned by the Brotherhood Alliance.

When there were three options to take, Qiu Luo decisively chose the one that was owned by the Brotherhood Alliance.

It was a simple choice. Qiu Luo had good reasons. First, the place must be safe, because it belonged to the Brotherhood Alliance. Second, they had just gotten a lot of money from the Brotherhood Alliance’s salesroom. The Brotherhood Alliance must be trying to find out who the owner of those rare metals was. They didn’t need to rob anybody but only had to make sure all the treasures from the owner could be sold in their salesroom too. It would bring them a great profit!

Ye Xiao earned the most in the auction, and the Brotherhood Alliance earned the second most for sure!

Normally, the salesroom couldn’t earn even twenty percent of the amount they had just got in one year!

They knew how important it was to have a client like Ye Xiao!

However, if Ye Xiao bought the land from the Brotherhood Alliance, the Brotherhood Alliance would definitely suspect the least.

Sometimes the darkest point was right under the light.

The Brotherhood Alliance wouldn’t expect the owner of the rare metals to spend a fortune to buy land from them.

Qiu Luo thought that he had to explain the reasons to Ye Xiao, but Ye Xiao already understood. Qiu Luo was quite surprised.

Ye Xiao learned a lot from Zuo Wuji and Wan Zhenghao, so he was surely good at calculation!

No matter which land they bought, it would draw the Brotherhood Alliance’s attention, so they chose to buy the one that belonged to the Brotherhood Alliance. It would be the least suspicious.

Qiu Luo was talking to a branch master of the Brotherhood Alliance about the purchase of the land at the moment.

After all, it was a big trading project which involved over a hundred thousand purple spirit coins. It was the biggest project in the entire Human Realm Upon Heavens.

If the branch master didn’t show up, the branch vice-master wouldn’t dare to make the decision.

Qiu Luo was being elegant and persuasive. The branch master was impressed. The negotiation went pretty well. However, when it got to the price, neither side would like to cave in.

They had a quarrel for a while before both sides sat down again and had some casual talks. In the end, they would have to talk about the price again, and it brought up another quarrel.

Both sides wanted to get the most benefit from the deal, and neither of them would like to give up on the deal either. That was why it kept going round and round before they reached a consensus. All business negotiation was the same.

Qiu Luo had been through a lot in the martial world, and he was casual and steady. Even if he had to do it a hundred times, he would be fine.

On the other side, that branch master started to be anxious.

In a negotiation, who got anxious first lost the advantage. Things were getting better for Qiu Luo...

...

Ye Xiao was quietly sitting in the room. He was reading the map of the Human Realm Upon Heavens and the introductions of all forces.

As he read more, he realized that the forces in the Human Realm Upon Heavens were in a mess!

No matter how he tried to sort it out, he just couldn’t get it done fast.

While he was having a headache, he heard an explosive sound outside the room, as if the entire sky was shaking.

He heard it clearly. It all started with somebody’s shout, “Stop right there!”

And then the sound kept moving further away...

Ye Xiao was shocked.

‘Fights in the City of Chaos are forbidden, aren’t they?’

‘How come there are people making trouble in the city?’

‘Isn’t it too audacious?’

While Ye Xiao was thinking, somebody shouted angrily again, “Who dares to mess around in the City of Chaos?”

There was some energy which shocked Ye Xiao in that shout. He even felt a bit dizzy because of it.

Apparently, it was a shout that was aimed at a cultivator’s spiritual mind. What a powerful shock!

The shout meant nothing to normal people because their spiritual minds were weak. The stronger someone’s spiritual mind was, the worse one got shocked by the blast of that shout!

Whoever was able to make that shout must be at least level one of the Saint Origin Stage!

The City of Chaos was in an outlying area of the world. It was such a surprise there was actually a Saint Origin Stage cultivator in the city!

The next moment, strong oppression appeared around the entire place. It was coming down from up in the sky!

It almost covered half of the City of Chaos.

Almost at the same time, the same oppression appeared in three other areas.

The City of Chaos actually sent four Saint Origin Stage cultivators to do this! It must be a big event!

Ye Xiao took a deep cold breath. He was shocked both physically and mentally. He walked to the window and looked into the distance.

He wanted to see how it looked like when a Saint Origin Stage cultivator moved.

When he looked out the window, he saw the entire city covered in darkness. Because of that shout, the entire city turned silent.

A fierce and strong spiritual mind was moving across the sky, searching every inch of the city. Apparently, they were searching for somebody.

When Ye Xiao opened the window and had a look at the city outside, something abruptly happened.

A head moved up from under the window. The eyes of the head looked right into Ye Xiao’s eyes, and their noses almost touched each other.
