All of the power and remnants of Chizi Ryuan's existence were completely exhausted from being absorbed by the Samsara sword that Weng Lou wielded.
He could sense that his twin swords had absorbed enormous power as a payment from the power he put out to kill Chizi Ryuan. The amount of energy released, equivalent to that absorbed, is arguably a perfect picture of the Karma relationship that prevails in this world.
As the owner, Weng Lou did not even understand how this weapon could have such power. Even his Night Dragon Sword did not possess this kind of power.
When it finished absorbing Chizi Ryuan, a crystal the size of her thumb began to form inside Weng Lou's stomach. It was something that resembled a Dantian possessed by Martial Practitioners, but it only kept its Soul Power.
However, in the center of the crystal, there was a speck of Soul Power that was purer and denser. This was a Soul Power that had fused with Weng Lou's physical body that showed his current level of practice.
When the entire crystal had changed completely, then he would rise to the realm of Soul Mastery and become a Soul Ruler. The path was still long, looking at the Soul Power that had changed to only one hundredth of an entire crystal. It was likely that for ordinary people, they would take a lifetime just to reach stage 9 Soul Unification.
But Weng Lou was different, he did not have a Dantian containing Qi which meant that he could unite his Soul and body much faster than people of the same level as him.
When Weng Lou finished examining his body, Weng Lou realized that the surrounding conditions were very chaotic, and many people in the realm of Soul Cleansing and Soul Unification were unconscious. Some of them were in a state of concern like the two people who were near Weng Lou at the moment, who were none other than Elder Meigui and Patriarch of the Jade Bamboo Sect.
While the others were the Elders of the Jade Bamboo Sect who were trying to head to the middle of the field earlier.
There were some Elders who were still unconscious, but their condition was not much better with those who were unconscious. Their organs were injured, and some of their bones had cracks or even fractures due to the pressure that Chizi Ryuan had previously released.
In contrast to Weng Lou who is currently in very prime condition. He had regained his lost level of practice after having finished absorbing Chizi Ryuan's body, now he was at the early stage 3 Soul Unification realm and possessed a Soul Power that was so pure and abundant within his body.
"I know you're still conscious, Patriarch. There is no need to be that wary to see if I will do anything against your Jade Bamboo Sect. The only reason I got into this sect was to find a way so that I could reuse my Soul Power that had long been buried within my body, but now I can already use my Soul Power back, so I have no interest anymore with the Jade Bamboo Sect," explained Weng Lou who just stood still while examining the contents of his Spatial Necklace.
"Ha.. hahaha..You really are an amazing child, or you are actually a monster disguised as a child? Well, it doesn't matter now, after all I have to thank you for getting rid of Chizi Ryuan. He was the root of the problems that had occurred in this Empire. His ambitions were too great for a ruler in such a remote place as the Ryuan Empire."
"He paid no heed to what kind of danger he could bring to this place if he continuously tried to widen the empire's territory. Not only was the risk of a counterattack from another Empire, there was even a chance that the Ryuan Empire itself would split into camps when its power was not at the top to suppress its subordinates." The Jade Bamboo Sect's Patriarch spoke calmly and he got up to sit down and wiped the blood on his face.
Weng Lou looked at the man for a moment, before sighing. He looked up at the sky and began to speak, "I'm just keeping my promise to someone."
What Weng Lou meant here was his promise to the Soul Fire Demon Lizard that he had previously fought in the form of a Ghoul. The young man who had killed him so viciously was none other than Chizi Ryuan. While the man who brought her from her residence was the Patriarch of the Jade Bamboo Sect himself, Weng Lou had no intention of fighting her. After all he had helped Weng Lou, and according to him the condition of the Patriarch who was now worthy of being considered as retaliation for the death of the Fire Demon Lizard children.
He swung his hand and appeared a few jade bottles that he immediately gave to that Jade Bamboo Sect Patriarch.
Those were some of the healing pills he had taken from his Spatial Necklace. The necklace could be used using Soul Power, so that now he could re-access his treasures that he had not seen long enough. The Patriarch of the Jade Bamboo Sect took out one of the bottles and looked at the contents which were some intermediate-grade wound healing pills that if in the Ryuan Empire was a very precious high-tier healing pill.
It was obvious that these pills did not come from the Ryuan Empire, because even the pill-making experts in the Ryuan Empire were not great enough to concoct this many pills.
He smiled and laughed softly, "So you really are from outside the territory of the Ryuan Empire, huh? I can't believe that the disciple nicknamed the Gifted Defect was someone who had the power to kill the current Emperor Ryuan. You're so much different than I thought you were, I'm sorry and thank you so much for everything you've done."
Regardless of his status, the Patriarch of the Jade Bamboo Sect bowed his head to Weng Lou, while Weng Lou simply kept silent and nodded then walked towards Elder Meigui who was his teacher in this place.
He looked at the woman for a while, before then putting a pill next to his 'teacher', and again walking away towards the audience seats, where his seniors were currently.
The Patriarch of the Jade Bamboo Sect only saw him walking away and closed his eyes while laughing softly and smiling as he recalled his past which was the teacher of Chizi Ryuan for several years. You could say he was the one who made that person the way he is now. He is cruel and has great ambition.
In the audience seats, some panicked and confused looking spectators were immediately distracted by the arrival of the leisurely walking Weng Lou.
"Brother Lou! You all right? What the hell is going on? Why did the Elders suddenly faint, and also Master, where was he?" Liang Lu immediately approached Weng Lou with a few other disciples of Elder Meigui following behind him.
They seem very curious about what really happened.
Weng Lou stared at them one by one for a while then swung his hand and gave them a jade bottle containing pills that could help their respective exercises, before then walking away from it and making them confused.
"Hey! That bastard! Brother Lu asked you nicely and is this how you repay him? Ignored it? And, what's with this jade bit? You gave us poison, huh?!" A male student who had disliked Weng Lou since he joined as a disciple of Elder Meigui exclaimed in annoyance and immediately raised Weng Lou's shoulder.
However, instead of Weng Lou who turned back, it was precisely her who slammed forward because she was attracted by the shoulder strength of Weng Lou who was walking. He fell to the ground with a look of disbelief and immediately looked at Weng Lou's two eyes which were emitting a golden light from his Soul Power.
"You're okay?" weng Lou asked as he moved his hand, and a golden rope helped the disciple to get back on his feet.
Liang Lu gaped wide when he saw that, he clearly knew that the golden rope issued by Weng Lou was Soul Power. But how could someone like Weng Lou who did not have a Dantian be able to use Soul Power? It doesn't make sense to him.
With a little advice from Weng Lou, Pao managed to make himself quite familiar with Liang Nu, but their relationship was only limited to friends for now, and it was all because of Weng Lou. If no one else was with them, perhaps Pao would cry to Weng Lou for helping him to this point.
"Lou! Why are you here? What exactly happened to everyone on the field just a moment ago? They suddenly fell to the ground, and suddenly an incredible Soul Power spread throughout the entire mountain, making everyone just be able to stay still in his seat. But that Soul Power suddenly just disappeared!" Pao immediately raised all sorts of questions and his unrest.
To him, Weng Lou was his trusted partner, even he was much more familiar with him compared to his cousins who were in the same clan as him.
"Pao, I'll be leaving soon. I leave my job as Sister Nu's bodyguard to you, just think of this as my payment to you." Weng Lou ignored Pao's question and gave him a book of martial techniques.
Pao accepted that in confusion, he read the three sentences on the front cover of the book that read 'The Body Lightening Technique' which is a version that has been created by Weng Lou for people like Kuai Pao who rely heavily on speed to produce larger attacks.
Weng Lou then walked up to Liang Nu, she smiled a little at him then patted his head softly. He did not crack anything, but Liang Nu's face turned into shock as he felt Weng Lou's Soul Power enter into his head and gave him some direction and martial techniques made based on his experience.
He went back to the middle of the field after finishing all his business. He walked to one side of the field, where Qianren was lying unconscious. He had walked towards the middle of the field and got a very strong pressure from Chizi Ryuan. Fortunately he did not resist that pressure and only suffered some non-permanent internal injuries.
With a single touch on his cheek, Weng Lou healed all his wounds and stared at Qianren's face for a moment before sighing. He still regrets his words. Qianren was an excellent companion to her, although her mouth was quite sharp and often hurt her heart, but that was what was special about this girl.
In Weng Lou's hands, a weight training hammer that he wore before reaching the realm of Soul Unification appeared and he placed it beside Qianren's still unconscious head.
"Consider this as my apology," said Weng Lou softly, and he immediately pulled out a Night Dragon Sword imitation sword from within his Spatial Necklace.
*Shu.tap...*
Weng Lou threw it into the air, and then immediately jumped up and stood on it. His body slightly swayed as he tried to balance himself, but it did not last long his body was stable.
Breathing out, Weng Lou used his Soul Power, and made his sword fly up into the sky.
He paused for a moment when he had reached a distance of fifty meters above the field, and gazed once again at the place he had been living for 3 months in the Jade Bamboo Sect. Many interesting things he went through, and to him this place was his second Northern Heavens Sect.
"Goodbye, it'll probably be a long time since I've been here. Until then, stay there and wait for me" muttered Weng Lou who quickly went down the mountain.
Under the mountain, two of Chizi Ryuan's subordinates had obtained K's information
death of their leader. There was a special tattoo on them that was specially made by the Emperor so that no betrayal would occur.
Just a moment ago, the tattoo had suddenly disappeared, which meant Chizi Ryuan was dead, and they were free. But who is capable of killing a Soul Sovereign? That person must be a fellow Sovereign to be able to simply injure a Soul Sovereign like Chizi Ryuan. Can kill him this fast, can only be done eh person who has power over the Soul Ruler, that is the Soul Emperor. Which meant, there was a Soul Emperor in the Jade Bamboo Mountain.
"What should we do? The emperor is dead, should we go home and preach this?" ask one of them.
"No, we don't have to. People must have heard from other subordinates who have tattoos like us. It's better that we keep a close eye around until the person who killed the Emperor appears," his comrade quickly declined.
"Watching a Soul Emperor?! You crazy?! How could we do that!" The one who asked first exclaimed. Their emperor who was only a Soul Ruler was able to watch the surroundings as far outside the Ryuan Imperial Region as the Huwa Islands, let alone a Soul Emperor? They were just like dust grains to him.
"Just relax, I'm not a Soul Emperor, so there's no need to worry."
Suddenly, the figure of Weng Lou Tah appeared behind them while smiling coldly at the two. The two people immediately jumped in shock and pulled out their respective weapons directed at Weng Lou.
"You-you! You're the kid! The man the Emperor was looking for!" pull one of them out quickly.
Weng Lou laughed cynically, and immediately caught both of their weapons with his bare hands, then grasped them firmly to the point of smashing them into pieces.
""!!!!""
The two shuddered in horror, Weng Lou was like a monster resembling a child to them.
"If you don't want to die, don't try to escape. I can kill you very easily, even without you noticing."
At this moment, the two people felt extremely regretful not directly leaving when they sensed their Emperor, Chizi Ryuan was dead. Now, they instead had to deal with someone who was even more dangerous than their emperor.
