The way the golden armor warrior left was quite shocking. The step he took made the ground shake slightly. When the golden armor warrior left, Ji Yuan suddenly remembered something and shook his head slightly. Ji Yuan forgot to say who Wei Xuan was, but judging from the evil spirit alone, it should not be wrong. Besides, the little paper crane had already flown away. Ji Yuan wanted to scan the air to confirm that the little guy was indeed following Wei Xuan, so he was no longer worried.
Ji Yuan shifted his gaze back to the surroundings of the house. Apart from the Wei family members who were immobilized, only Wei Ming was excluded by the immobilization technique. He was kneeling on the ground with a pale face. Judging from the several knee marks on the ground, this man must have wanted to stand up and run away several times when Ji Yuan seemed to be distracted just now, but he restrained himself every time.
“My Lord, please have mercy on me. I, Wei Ming, have always been against exchanging my Wei family’s precious heavenly book for that demon’s unique method. I am even more against practicing such evil skills… That demon is lying again, saying that my Wei family’s arrogance was to blame. My Lord will never come to the Wei family again. Fortunately, I am here. Please judge for me!”
Ji Yuan didn't say anything. He walked step by step to Wei Ming and spoke to him in a calm tone.
"Since you believe that you have a good heart, then I can trust you..."
Wei Ming was ecstatic inside and showed a grateful expression on his face. But when he really wanted to thank him, Ji Yuan continued with his next words.
"However, given the condition of your body, the level of refinement of your body has already been reached and there is no going back. I can believe that you have a good heart, so you might as well trust me and let me burn your body with true fire. Perhaps I can also rescue your soul so that it can survive in the underworld."
Wei Ming's scalp went numb after hearing what he said. He stared at Ji Yuan in a daze for a long time without being able to speak. The expression on his face was distorted for a moment, constantly changing between fear and struggle, but it was only for a moment. After a moment, tears welled up in his eyes and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ji Yuan continuously.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...
"Immortal, Immortal, I really have a kind heart, I..."
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...
"Please have mercy, Immortal! Please save me!"
As he said this, Wei Ming's head suddenly couldn't be knocked down because his forehead was supported by Ji Yuan. The latter lifted Wei Ming's face and looked at his forehead which was covered with gravel and dust. There was no bruises, not even the skin was broken and there was no redness or swelling.
"Master, I really..."
"You have absorbed a lot of energy from masters, right?"
Ji Yuan looked at Wei Ming with his dark eyes, making the latter feel that all his inner thoughts had been seen through. He felt cold all over and a sense of fear rose rapidly.
"I have just told you how to save you. How can you say I won't save you? With your current body, if you continue like this, even if you do nothing, in a dozen years you will become a zombie mingling in the world of the living. After another ten or twenty years, when your body is completely dead, you will be a complete zombie, and maybe even very powerful, killing many people. You don't want that, do you? While there is still time, I can still save your soul, but you can't be a human being in the world of the living. I don't have the old beggar's ability nor his treasure to make people start over as human beings."
Wei Ming was speechless and looked at Ji Yuan with his mouth slightly opened. The more he looked at Ji Yuan's pale eyes, the stronger the fear in his heart became. This immortal was serious.
'I don't want to die! I don't want to die!'
"Master, I don't want to die! Ten years, twenty years, there are still decades to live, there are still decades to live, Master, I don't want to die! I... don't want to..."
Wei Ming began to struggle violently, with his knees off the ground and his hands supporting him, but he could not stand up no matter what. His forehead could not leave Ji Yuan's two fingers, as if he was stuck to them and pressed down by a tremendous force.
"Master... I don't want to die. My martial arts skills are so advanced now, and I still have more than ten years to live. I don't want to die..."
Wei Ming struggled violently, grabbing Ji Yuan's arms with both hands, and trying with all his strength to stand up and break free from Ji Yuan's hands, but he couldn't get up at all. He even tried to grab Ji Yuan's arms with both hands, but his knuckles slipped through his clothes and he couldn't hold on at all.
"As the saying goes, a life is for a life, a debt is for a debt. You have been a great master for such a long time, and you have enjoyed the admiration of thousands of people for so many years. It is enough. I did not lie to you. Just go now."
After saying this, Ji Yuan blew out a light red-gray smoke from his mouth, which directly fell on Wei Ming, and Ji Yuan himself withdrew his hand at the previous moment.
“Ah… Ah…”
Wei Ming jumped up suddenly, his whole body was red, as if covered with fine charcoal, and he rushed around screaming.
“Bang” “Boom” “Boom~”…
"Ah... I'm burning to death... Immortal, please spare my life..."
The walls of several houses were destroyed, and holes were knocked out in several courtyard walls. Finally, he ran all the way and jumped directly into the river nearby.
"Plop..." With a sound, water splashed everywhere.
“Sizzle…”
A large amount of steam rose up, not from the Samadhi True Fire, but from the water that came into contact with Wei Ming's body and was burned. However, Wei Ming, who was rolling in the water, still could not extinguish the burning sensation on his body, and he was still screaming in the water.
The whole process lasted for more than ten breaths before Wei Ming's voice finally stopped. A piece of charred black powder floated on the river and slowly drifted away with the river water.
Ji Yuan stood still and witnessed the whole process of Wei Ming's struggle, but he did not lie to Wei Ming. Ji Yuan was indeed using the Samadhi Fire to refine his body. Unfortunately, Wei Ming was not as kind as he said. His soul was deeply entangled with the evil spirit in his body, so in the end, Ji Yuan, who had mastered the control of the Samadhi Fire, was unable to separate his soul.
In fact, Ji Yuan had a very good impression of Wei Ming back then, so doing this was already a favor to him. However, judging from the result, it seemed that Wei Ming's death was even more painful.
Ji Yuan looked up at the bright moon in the sky. The moon was particularly bright tonight, which was exactly the weather that zombies and other evil creatures liked best.
On the other side, the golden-armored warrior had also caught up with several targets. His speed was much faster than these so-called Wei family masters. The first two only felt a flash of golden light before their eyes, and then a divine general covered in golden light appeared in front of them.
There was no time to react. After two loud "bangs", he was smashed into the ground. His upper body was shattered. He knew he was dead without even needing to confirm.
The warrior in golden armor didn't even stop and chased straight ahead. Wei Xuan, Wei Xing and others in the front heard the noise and turned back. They were terrified by what they saw and they ran away as fast as they could. No one knew who shouted.
"Run separately, only by running separately can you escape, run separately quickly!"
As soon as these words fell, the remaining people instantly split into several groups and fled in several directions. They even hated why the manor was so big but so remote, and why Luping City was so far away. They instinctively wanted to hide in the crowd to avoid disaster.
The golden-armored warriors were extremely fast, and sometimes there would be flashes of lightning on their bodies. Killing these so-called masters of the Wei family was just like crushing a stink bug. They could catch up with one of them in an instant with heavy footsteps, and either step on the one directly, or chop him down with a knife, or attack with fists or palms. There was no need for a second strike, and even no need to pause. No one would survive their attack.
Since Your Majesty has said that it doesn't matter whether anyone except Wei Xuan lives or dies, it's better for them to die. At least they won't jump around. This is the simple and pure logical thinking of the golden-armored warrior, and it is effective.
Wei Xing did not spare his true energy and physical strength, and tried his best to escape, but soon he realized that there was no movement behind him. A feeling of hair standing on end became stronger and stronger, and then a whistling sound tearing the air and footsteps shaking the ground approached. When he turned around, he saw that the golden-armored warrior was already close at hand.
At this critical moment, Wei Xing, who was frightened out of his wits, thought quickly and shouted loudly.
"I know the Immortal, I know the Immortal, it's the Immortal I received, it's the Immortal I received..."
The words haven’t been finished yet.
"Boom..."
Wei Xing felt as if he was hit by a bull on his chest. His limbs were instantly thrown forward and he felt as if they were about to be separated from his body. His entire body bent backwards, tearing through the air and flying backwards rapidly.
"Ahem..."
As large mouthfuls of blood mixed with the broken internal organs were coughed out from the slightly collapsed chest cavity, Wei Xing was knocked hundreds of feet away by one blow, and finally hit a big tree with a "boom".
"Crack...Crunch..."
The big tree suffered an unexpected disaster. The trunk was broken and half of the stump was lifted off. Wei Xing was sitting in front of the stump, his chest stained with blood and his whole body twitching and convulsing.
Wei Xuan was running for his life, but he knew that he was alone now. His face was ferocious as he ran away, but he had not given up his desire to survive.
'Even if I am caught up, I am not without the strength to fight. I have already surpassed the limits of mortals. Even if the enemy is a god, I will not necessarily lose!'
Although he thought so in his mind, Wei Xuan did not have the courage to turn around and fight until the whistling sound of the air chasing him got closer and closer.
"Evil obstacle, stop!"
The voice of the golden-armored warrior sounded like thunder in the sky, coming with a rumbling echo. This was the first time he spoke today. Just this thunder-like voice alone made Wei Xuan's courage disappear.
"Woo..."
There was a whistling sound in the air, and Wei Xuan's heart was filled with alarm. He jumped up in an instant, and his nails on both hands grew long. He grabbed back fiercely, but when he turned around and saw what was behind him, he was dumbfounded...
“Sizzle…”
The nails scratched on the golden armor without even creating sparks, and behind Wei Xuan, the golden-armored warrior was already ten feet tall. Now he held Wei Xuan, who was trying to jump up to resist, in his hand as if he were a small toy.
At this point, the golden-armored warrior stopped, looked back in the direction of Wei Xing, and confirmed that he was not dead.
The little paper crane flapped its wings and flew to the top of the golden-armored warrior's head and stopped. It lowered its head and looked down, originally to see if Wei Xuan was dead. At this moment, the golden-armored warrior turned his eyes and looked above his forehead, and saw the little paper crane peeking out. Although the former seemed to have no eyes, their lines of sight met.
