Chapter 324 - Is There Any Left, I’m Still Hungry
After engulfing the head of the purple flaming dragon, An Lin continued upward.
Under the effect of the Wings of True Fire cultivation method, Divine Flames poured relentlessly into his dantian. It didn’t feel scorchingly hot to him, only pleasantly warm, like breathing in a lungful of warm steam.
He swallowed the dragon’s neck, then its waist and lastly, its tail.
A tiny speck of flames tried to escape into the distance. That was none other than the source of the Demonic Star Flame.
However, it was still unable to escape An Lin’s gaping mouth and was swallowed into his stomach.
“Burp…”
An Lin burped loudly and smacked his lips as if he was savoring the aftertaste.
“I’m getting a hint of strawberry and a little bit of heat and spice.”
He made his final evaluation after a moment of thought.
Ye Chongshan’s mouth fell open. “…”
Su Qianyun: “…”
A “Star” character appeared in the Wings of True Fire cultivation method on the system.
An Lin nodded with contentment and descended slowly to the ground before making his way toward Ye Chongshan.
Ye Chongshan’s legs gave out from under him as he collapsed to the ground with fear in his eyes.
The Demonic Star Flame was the most untameable of the four Divine Flames. How could he not be in shock after seeing An Lin swallow the flames whole?!
“Do you have any other Divine Flames left? I’m still hungry for more,” An Lin asked with a smile.
Ye Chongshan shook his head vigorously from side to side and replied in a trembling voice, “No, no, we only have this one… Battle Emperor Zi Yang of the Bei Hong Empire also has one, I don’t know anything else aside from that!”
An expression of disappointment appeared on An Lin’s face. “I’m already aware of that.”
Ye Chongshan was just about to beg for forgiveness after seeing the cold expression on An Lin’s face, but he was instead greeted to the sight of a black streak.
Ye Chongshan had already been severely injured from the backlash of the Demonic Star Flame and was completely defenseless against An Lin’s surprise attack.
Splat!
Blood splattered onto the floor, signifying the end of the Zhai Xing Sect’s Grand Elder Ye Chongshan.
An Lin stowed his sword away and turned to the woman beside him with a gentle smile. “Let’s move on to the next destination.”
Su Qianyun blinked her pretty eyes in shock. “You, you ate so much fire, isn’t your stomach burning?”
An Lin smiled triumphantly. “Nope, on the contrary, I feel great!”
“Oh…” Su Qianyun nodded with a baffled expression but didn’t press the issue. She leaped onto her Moonlight Disc and continued on toward the next destination with An Lin.
The remaining disciples of Zhai Xing Sect stared blankly at the two figures flying away into the distance and something seemed to shatter in their hearts.
The series of charred trenches embedded deeply into the mountains, the collapsed buildings all around them, the countless corpses flung carelessly all over the ground…
All of it seemed so surreal. Even after their Grand Elder summoned the purple flaming dragon which materialized from the Demonic Star Flame, he was still unable to kill those two people… Their Zhai Xing Sect had completely fallen.
Sword Immortal An Lin and the Moonlight Holy Maiden staged a frontal assault on the Zhai Xing Sect and slew Sect Leader Ling Xiangle as well as Grand Elder Ye Chongshan.
One of the four Divine Flames, the Demonic Star Flame, made a brief appearance before it was swallowed by Sword Immortal An Lin.
News of this soon began to cause a massive stir throughout the Ao Xin Empire and even the Zhan Qi Continent.
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock, and they began to doubt their ears.
This was the Zhai Xing Sect, one of the ten most powerful sects of the Ao Xin Empire! Their sect leader and grand elder were both Battle Sage rank warriors, what kind of strength would the duo have to possess to be able to stage a frontal assault on the sect and slaughter these two powerful beings? Even the Demonic Star Flame had made an appearance but it was swallowed up in the end?!
The power this duo possessed was simply unimaginable!
Everyone began to recall Sword Immortal An Lin’s words of provocation directed toward the Battle Gods.
They had all thought it was nothing but a mere joke a few days ago. Everyone thought he was punching well above his weight and was a total nutjob.
But those words suddenly didn’t seem so preposterous now.
A man who was able to stamp the Zhai Xing Sect to the ground and swallow one of the four Divine Flames; was this at least worthy of attention from the Battle Gods?
“Hehe, looks like there’s going to be a good show on the cards soon…”
“Things have gotten to extent that Battle God Xu Ming simply can’t sit by idly anymore. He’s definitely going to make a move soon.”
“After all that’s happened, it’s extremely unlikely that he would be able to absorb Sword Immortal An Lin and the Moonlight Holy Maiden into his forces. It’s most likely the case that an earth-shattering battle is imminent.”
“I feel like Sword Immortal An Lin and the Moonlight Holy Maiden will choose to run away. They’re strong, but it’s impossible for them to defeat a Battle God. I’d say they’re at the pinnacle of Battle Sage rank at most.”
“That’s true, just a single rank is like the difference between heaven and earth. If Sword Immortal An Lin really wants to fight Battle God Xu Ming, he would probably have to at least break through to become the fourth Battle God on the Zhan Qi Continent first!”
Just as everyone was discussing An Lin and Su Qianyun, another piece of astonishing news began to make its way throughout the Ao Xin Empire.
Two Battle Emperor rank monsters from the Fierce Beast Sect were apparently killed by a man named Hu Guan.
The Nine Lotus Demonic Sect was also eradicated with five Battle Emperor rank warriors slain. However, there was only one perpetrator, a man with the title of Myriad Spirit Daoist, otherwise known as Xuanyuan Cheng.
The Dark Heavens Sect, which was one of the ten most powerful sects in the Ao Xin Empire was also razed to the ground by a single woman. She singlehandedly slew the Battle Sage rank leader of the sect and was given the title of Mystical Flames Celestial Maiden, otherwise known as Xu Xiaolan.
The citizens of the Ao Xin Empire were all shocked beyond words by the recent events. They were also unable to comprehend how so many powerful beings had suddenly appeared in this world. Many evil sects were all scared sh*tless and didn’t dare to dabble in their evil deeds any longer.
Almost everyone had the same thought in their heads: the Ao Xin Empire was about to be flipped on its head!
The capital city of the Ao Xin Empire, Xin Jing City.
An Lin and Su Qianyun strolled casually on the streets of the capital city.
They had naturally all heard the news going around as well. An Lin’s first reaction was confusion at what kind of stupid nicknames Mystical Flames Celestial Maiden and Myriad Spirit Daoist were supposed to be. However, he knew that his friends were only inventing these stupid titles for themselves in order to attract his attention.
“I really want to reunite with Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng as quickly as possible.”
Su Qianyun’s smile was like a warm summer breeze, and she spoke while chewing on a snack, making her appear especially enchanting and vibrant.
No one would be able to make the connection between such a lovely young woman and the fearsome Moonlight Holy Maiden unless they had seen the Moonlight Holy Maiden in person.
“Alright, let’s wait here for them then.” An Lin ruffled her silky hair with a smile.
Su Qianyun narrowed her eyes like a little kitten enjoying a pat on the head.
The sun shone down upon them, creating the image of a harmonious couple.
The past few days had brought their relationship a lot closer.
An Lin and Su Qianyun had intentionally left a very obvious path of destruction leading straight to the capital city of the Ao Xin Empire. As long as their friends were paying attention, they should reunite with them in Xin Jing City where they would then move on to the BOSS fight.
An Lin and Su Qianyun strolled into a restaurant and ordered a delicious feast.
Money was not a problem as the storage rings of the two Battle Sages were absolutely loaded. It was just a pity that their weapons were of no use to An Lin for the moment. They would only react to injections of Battle Qi and would require modifications for them to be able to react to vital energy.
An Lin was a massive foodie and tasted all the delicacies of everywhere they had been to. He was especially fond of the meat dishes that were great for replenishing Battle Qi. The texture was exquisite and as was the taste, thus prompting An Lin into a feeding frenzy.
Su Qianyun was a lot more cultured and ate her food with the grace and delicacy of a gentlewoman.
For nearby onlookers, just watching her eat was a pleasing spectacle to behold.
Just as the two of them were enjoying a feast together, another piece of earth-shattering news began to spread through the whole continent.
Battle God Xu Ming was extending an invitation to Sword Immortal An Lin and the Moonlight Holy Maiden for a battle in ten days on Xin Jing Mountain.
