Chapter 493 - Returning to Wang Chuan Temple
Chapter 493: Returning to Wang Chuan Temple
“Who are you? How dare you oppose my family?” A bearded big man stood up and lifted his pistol at the same time.
Before he could lift the pistol and shoot, a chill surrounded his wrist. He looked at his wrist in fear and his pistol fell to the ground.
“I, Shan Qianren, have many warrior friends. Everyone might know about the origin of warriors. The Shan Family has never provoked you. Who are you? Why are you so ruthless and merciless?” The old man stood up all of a sudden and stared firmly at Di Jiu.
Di Jiu had already pulled Shan Xiuqi into his embrace and thrown out dozens of fireballs. Both of the Shan Family members were prepared to make a move but were turned into dust by his fireball without any exception.
When the last fireball landed on Shan Qianren, he heard Di Jiu’s voice. “I’m Di Jiu. I welcome the Shan Family to cause me trouble. I’ll be staying in Wang Chuan Temple on the Forgetful River Mountain Range often in the future.”
Shan Qianren clearly saw Di Jiu’s fireball get thrown over to him but could not avoid it even though he was a Heaven Tier Warrior. Meanwhile, fear flashed past his eyes. What kind of strength was this? Heaven Tier or Semi-Core? Or an expert who had even surpassed the Semi-Core? Even if he was a Semi-Core expert, he should not be able to throw a fireball out so casually, right?
When had an expert who had surpassed the Semi-Core appeared on Earth? The Shan Family had never heard of anyone like that before.
Di Jiu came and went fast.
When Shan Qianren got back to his senses, the flame on him was extinguished. Everyone in the hall who was burned by Di Jiu’s fireball was turned into dust except him.
Shan Qianren was not happy at all. His meridians were entirely broken, so he knew that he could not live for long.
He knew very well that Di Jiu had spared his life because he wanted him to pass a message.
Shan Qianren immediately grabbed onto the handphone at his side without any consideration. He dialed a number and said, “Big Brother Ge, the entire Shan Family that came to Honor Parade City has been killed by Di Jiu. He has gone to Wang Chuan Temple on the Forgetful River Mountain Range. My family…”
Shan Qianren’s words came to an end as a terrifying force rendered him unable to continue. He even felt like he would explode next.
It was scary to have such a feeling.
This had definitely not happened by chance. It was because of Di Jiu. How was he able to do this?
Shan Qianren came to a sudden realization that he should not have called back. He should not have told the Shan Family where Di Jiu was, as he was harming them and not killing Di Jiu for revenge.
Di Jiu was so formidable that even their old ancestor, Shan Muxin, had gone to find him. However, this would probably only result in death for him. He should not have told them where Di Jiu was. He should have warned them not to find him. Once they found him, the Shan Family would be finished.
It was a pity that he could not say anything now. His heart was filled with fear and panic.
Bam! A frantic force exploded in Shan Qianren’s body. Shan Qianren, who was badly burned by the fireball, exploded into scraps.
In the end, he only mouthed four words: “The Shan Family is finished.” While he was dying, he understood that regardless of whether he warned the Shan Family, they would still have found Di Jiu simply because they were the Shan Family.
…
Shan Ge put down the phone in his hands and frowned.
Shan Qianren, who had called, ranked third among the Shan Family in terms of strength. Besides the top expert of the Shan Family, Shan Muxin, and himself who was a Connate expert, Shan Qianren was a Heaven Tier expert.
Even though the family head, Shan Dongji, was a Heaven Tier expert, he handled the family’s internal and external matters more. Shan Dongji was not any more powerful than Shan Qianren in terms of strength. In other words, Shan Dongji’s Heaven Tier cultivation level had been accumulated by using medicinal herbs.
Had Shan Qianren said that all the members of the Shan Family who had gone to Honor Parade City had been killed? Was it true that someone called Di Jiu had done it?
How was this possible? Shan Qianren was a Connate expert who had brought up numerous Earth Tier experts. He had not finished his sentence, so did that mean that he had been killed at that moment?
This would not do. He had to let the family head, Shan Dongji, as well as old ancestor Shan Muxin know right away when there was a need. There were many people who could kill Shan Qianren, but only a few who would dare to do so.
…
Di Jiu finally felt at ease after only an hour or two. His Spiritual Force could now extend to a range of 50 kilometers.
He could completely strip off the Poison Dao pattern in three more days with this speed. Once that happened, his Spiritual Force could easily sweep the entire Earth.
By the time Shan Xiuqi woke up, Di Jiu had already arrived outside Wang Chuan Temple. Her injuries were healed after taking his healing elixirs.
Di Jiu used his Spiritual Force. After so many years, the ruins of Wang Chuan Temple were already filled with overgrown, withered weeds.
A fair distance away from the Forgetful River Mountain Range were numerous level-one demon beasts that were detected by Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force. There were also all kinds of ferocious beasts.
This place should have been deserted since there were so many demon beasts. Ordinary warriors who came here would only be courting death.
However, Di Jiu discovered a small road amid the ruins of Wang Chuan Temple.
Someone had come here before? And not just once either. Who possessed the strength and bravery to come to such a desolate place as the Wang Chuan Temple?
“Di Jiu, why are you here? Huh? Where is this?” Shan Xiuqi came to her senses and looked at the surrounding jungle in surprise.
There were no traces of snow here. It was obvious that this was not the Major Crooked District anymore.
That was not right. She must have been taken away by the Shan Family. They had been hitting her with a long whip at the time to force her to tell them Di Jiu’s whereabouts.
“This is the Forgetful River Mountain Range. I brought you here.” Di Jiu smiled but felt somewhat guilty. He had taken advantage of Shan Xiuqi, who had saved him.
When he had done it with her, he had treated Shan Xiuqi like Zhen Man. This was due to that trace of obsession deep in his heart, not because he had still been thinking of her.
He was very grateful to Shan Xiuqi, who had helped him remove that trace of obsession he had felt for Zhen Man.
Di Jiu believed that feelings could be nurtured. When he had first seen Shan Xiuqi, he had not had any feelings. However, she was now the other half in his life that he could not lose.
“You saved me and escaped to the Forgetful River Mountain Range?” Shan Xiuqi came to her senses and questioned Di Jiu as she looked at him in surprise.
Di Jiu nodded. “Yes, I saved you and brought you here. I hope you can live with me in the future if you like. When I leave…”
Di Jiu was too embarrassed to carry on. He was sure that when he had dominated Shan Xiuqi, he had not been given her permission. Not only did he want her to live with him now, but he also wanted to bring her along when he left Earth. He seemed to be too selfish.
“Of course. I will leave with you. We already…” Shan Xiuqi blurted out. She had just transformed from a young lady and felt very embarrassed to be saying that.
“Hold on a minute… I’ll set up a place for us to stay here…” Di Jiu took out a cave abode Dharma treasure from the Quintessential World.
Shan Xiuqi did not mind Di Jiu’s actions at all. She only wondered how he had saved her from the Shan Family.
“Big Brother Di, how did you save me from the Shan Family?” Shan Xiuqi asked what she wanted. She knew how formidable Shan Qianren was. Plus, there were numerous Heaven Tier experts.
“I knocked them down and saved you,” Di Jiu casually told her. He did not tell her that he had killed the entire Shan Family in Honor Parade City. After all, she was part of the family and he did not want any misunderstandings between them.
“You’re a warrior? Don’t tell me you’re a Heaven Tier expert?” Shan Qianren responded. If Di Jiu was not an expert above the Heaven Tier, how could he have saved her from Shan Qianren?
Di Jiu shook his head. “I’m not a Heaven Tier warrior…”
Shan Xiuqi was not surprised. Di Jiu looked so young… How could he be a Heaven Tier warrior? She was sure that Di Jiu had secretly gone to save her when she had been locked up.
“Ah…” When Shan Xiuqi lifted her head and stopped thinking, she happened to see a magnificent detached villa.
This place was certainly full of ruins…
“Big Brother Di…” Shan Xiuqi covered her mouth as she looked at Di Jiu and the detached villa behind him in disbelief.
Di Jiu pointed at his ring. “I have a storage ring. As for this house, wait for me to slowly explain everything to you.”
“Big Brother Di, you have a storage ring?” Shan Xiuqi looked at him in shock.
It was Di Jiu’s turn to be surprised. “Xiuqi, you know what’s a storage ring?”
Shan Xiuqi nodded her head with all her strength. She naturally knew about this thing. There were only two or three on Earth, and each of them was in the hands of an earthshaking person. These storage rings had fallen from the Fairy Planet back then, so she had not expected to see one in Di Jiu’s hands.
