Chapter 849: Chapter 821: I Hope You Won’t Blame Me

"Tap, tap..."

Footsteps could be heard as Li Chen and Wang Qing slowly emerged from a house in the outskirts.

Wang Qing’s face still bore some bloodstains, and his expression seemed complex.

However, Li Chen’s body remained spotless.

But having witnessed the events that had transpired, Wang Qing fully understood just how terrifying the man beside him was.

So much so that he finally understood why this man was called the King of the Netherworld.

In the house, Steward Kang and a group of people were discussing some matters.

And it was during this time that Li Chen and Wang Qing entered the house.

At first, Wang Qing felt that the two of them were short on manpower, as their opponents had more than a dozen top fighters, but in the end, he was refused by Li Chen.

The reason for Li Chen’s refusal was simple.

He didn’t want too many people to know his business.

Then, Li Chen wiped out everyone belonging to Steward Kang.

The absence of blood on him was because all their blood had been drained by Red Moon.

Looking at Red Moon, which was still gently vibrating, Li Chen chuckled and said, "This time, you must have had your fill, right?"

Red Moon gradually calmed down, as if responding to Li Chen.

Li Chen found that although Red Moon was a Demon Blade, it was only because others misunderstood it, not knowing what it truly wanted.

However, as his contact with Red Moon grew, Li Chen found himself becoming increasingly attuned to the blade.

So much so that now, they had reached a near-telepathic understanding.

Red Moon hadn’t affected him; instead, it seemed to be influenced by him.

Now, he was the true master of Red Moon. Others, even if they obtained Red Moon, could not wield it as smoothly as he!

Just like An Qin with her Frost.

Li Chen had also tried using Frost, but as soon as his True Qi was infused into it, Frost conveyed a sense of rejection. Although it was not very strong, in combat, this rejection could be fatal.

Now, there was no such issue between him and Red Moon.

"Li... King of the Netherworld, what should we do next..." Wang Qing, who had been lost in thought for a while, finally turned to Li Chen and asked, but his gaze had become somewhat reverent.

"Next, I will handle it myself. Your task is complete. Tell me the location of the Mystic Star Sect, I can go on my own," Li Chen said.

"Understood," Wang Qing hurriedly nodded.

Truth be told, he didn’t want to stay here any longer.

After what had happened before, for some unknown reason, standing next to Li Chen, he always felt an inexplicable chill, as if a careless move could result in Li Chen slaying him with a single stroke.

And judging by Li Chen’s displayed combat power when he made his move, even ten of himself together would not match up to him.

This man was simply too terrifying.

After learning the location of the Mystic Star Sect from Wang Qing, Li Chen did not hesitate and instantly vanished from the spot.

Wang Qing was left standing there in a daze, as if he hadn’t yet snapped back to reality.

It wasn’t until he realized that Li Chen had already left that he shook his head in resignation.

When he first joined Dragon Soul, he was full of pride, thinking he had entered the strongest force in Huaxia and that here he could become a true super expert.

But it wasn’t until he met a real expert that he realized the gap between himself and the other party.

Immense, unbelievably immense power.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would have never believed that such powerful beings existed in this world.

Even among the Dragon Soul’s top echelons, no masters could possibly be this strong.

This was his assessment of Li Chen.

Turning his head, Wang Qing left with a wry smile.

Meanwhile, Li Chen was heading straight for the location of the Mystic Star Sect.

It was an exceptional and isolated pavilion by the sea, standing proudly atop a seaside mountain, as if everything in this world was unrelated to it.

At the entrance of the pavilion, a few young Daoists in long robes were practicing their martial arts moves, seemingly honing their boxing and kicking skills.

Below the mountain, several people were climbing up with some difficulty.

They were all attracted by the Sect’s reputation. In this region of Harbor Island, unlike the inland, ancient traditions had been preserved. In the past, many such legacies were dismissed as feudal superstitions and had been thoroughly abolished in the mainland.

However, this area retained many traditions.

After hearing that the fortunes told here were incredibly accurate, many wealthy individuals made the arduous journey personally, wishing for the Mystic Star Sect to tell their fortune.

Others came in hopes of treating some incurable ailments that they had.

Yet, those climbing the mountain suddenly felt a gust of wind rushing past them.

"Hm? What was that just now? Why was there such a strong wind?"

"Don’t know, but isn’t a bit of sea breeze normal for this location?"

"But isn’t the sea on the other side? Blocked by this mountain, from where does this wind come?"

"True... So, where did this wind come from then?"

Li Chen was sprinting along the mountain path at extremely high speed, his pace so swift it even surpassed that of an average person running on flat land.

So much so, as he dashed past those people, not one noticed.

Soon, he reached the summit.

There indeed stood a pavilion. The building was ancient and appeared to have been constructed a long time ago. The Mystic Star Sect had only recently taken over this almost completely abandoned pavilion.

As for the funding, it came from the affluent they had helped.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

"Excuse me, friend, are you here to draw a fortune stick or to inquire about an illness?" Upon seeing Li Chen approach, a young Daoist smiled and came over to ask.

They had seen quite a few such people recently, so they were somewhat accustomed to it.

"I’m here to find someone," replied Li Chen calmly.

"To find someone?" The young Daoist looked puzzled at Li Chen and couldn’t help asking, "May I ask who you are looking for?"

"A woman! Lin Xiaoxiao!"

Having said this, Li Chen began walking directly towards the pavilion.

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, the young Daoist suddenly reached out to stop Li Chen: "My friend, the Mystic Star Sect is not some ordinary shop that can be entered at will."

"Not to be entered at will?" Li Chen chuckled: "Then return my woman to me, and I won’t enter!"

"Your woman?" The young Daoist frowned: "Please be respectful. The Mystic Star Sect isn’t a place that harbors filth and evil. Otherwise, do not blame me for my actions."

"I won’t blame you," Li Chen shook his head.

"I just hope you won’t blame me!"

After speaking, Li Chen, seeing the young Daoist reaching for a vital point on his body, struck the latter’s chest with his palm.

"Boom!!"

The young Daoist was sent flying backward, spitting blood instantaneously.
