Chapter 17 – Killed Four Bastards!

In the eyes of Li Ying and the other three, a massive golden sword light soared from the direction of Headless Ghost Valley.

Instantly, it caused the entire Headless Ghost Valley to collapse!

Then, all movement ceased within Headless Ghost Valley, leaving an eerie silence.

A moment later.

A figure in white robes leaped out from Headless Ghost Valley.

Who else could it be but Ye Sheng?!

As for Bai Ziliang’s two 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts, they seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace of their presence!

“What happened?!”

“Where are those two 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts?”

Qiu Shan and the other three were utterly horrified.

How could it have ended so quickly?

Shouldn’t Ye Sheng have been locked in a struggle with the two 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts?

Or even been slain by them?

Yet in the blink of an eye, Ye Sheng had leaped out of Headless Ghost Valley.

Meanwhile, the two 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts had vanished without a trace?!

A flicker of fear appeared in Li Ying’s eyes. “Those two are likely already dead!”

“What?!”

Qiu Shan was horrified, unable to believe it.

Li Ying’s guess was correct.

Just moments ago, with a single sword strike, Ye Sheng had instantly annihilated Bai Ziliang and his companion.

The two died with expressions of utter disbelief!

How could there exist such an aberration like Ye Sheng in this world?

His power had reached 260 times the norm!

By the time the two realized what was happening, it was already too late.

They were directly vaporized by Ye Sheng’s sword strike!

“Run!”

Qiu Shan and the other two members of the team were filled with terror.

At this moment, the three were truly terrified, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Especially when they saw the white-robed figure, like a Demon God, rapidly closing in on them, a sense of despair rose in their eyes.

If this aberration could even annihilate 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts, who could possibly stand against him?

Swish!

Unfortunately, Ye Sheng’s speed was too fast. With his immense energy circulating within him, even without any movement techniques, he was incredibly swift!

In an instant, he blocked the path of the four, his gaze icy as he looked at them.

“Spare us!”

Qiu Shan and the other two immediately dropped to their knees, prostrating themselves on the ground, weeping and begging.

“It’s over!”

Li Ying, however, stood frozen in place, her face filled with despair.

She understood all too well that Ye Sheng would never let them leave alive.

“Die!”

Ye Sheng struck out in anger.

A flash of golden sword light swept over, engulfing the four figures. He couldn’t be bothered to waste words on these scoundrels.

Boom!

After the sword strike, a long trench was carved through the forest.

The four were completely vaporized, leaving behind only four Spatial Bracelets.

Swish.

Ye Sheng waved his hand, collecting the four Spatial Bracelets.

After searching through them, he found the white light orb in Li Ying’s Spatial Bracelet.

Seeing that the Class Advancement Item was still there, he let out a sigh of relief.

This journey hadn’t been in vain after all!

“Time to leave this place!”

Ye Sheng scanned his surroundings, then leaped into the air, quickly disappearing into the forest.

From here…

With the Class Advancement Item, he could summon the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation and advance to the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm.

…

Half an hour later.

A figure rushed toward Headless Ghost Valley at incredible speed, its aura also at the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm.

Boom!

The figure landed in Headless Ghost Valley, its powerful force causing the surrounding ground to crack.

This figure was extremely imposing. As it stood upright, it revealed itself to be a middle-aged man.

The man wore a full suit of armor, and his equipment was extravagantly luxurious and dazzling!

Every piece of equipment emitted a dark golden glow.

He was actually clad in a full set of Dark Gold Tier Equipment, his aura as deep and profound as an abyss!

Not only that, but this middle-aged man’s set of Dark Gold Equipment was not 1st Revolution equipment,

but astonishingly, 2nd Revolution Dark Gold Equipment!

This set of equipment alone could increase his Combat Power by 100 times!

Note, it was 100 times compared to a 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Expert!

Not a 1st Revolution Expert!

Far more formidable than Ye Sheng.

If Ye Sheng were here, even relying on the Annihilation-grade Skill ‘Vajra Demon-Subduing Sword,’ he might not be a match for this person.

The gap between their realms was too vast!

Their equipment levels were not on the same tier!

At this moment.

Bai Tingyu surveyed the chaotic scene in the Headless Ghost Valley with a grim expression.

Just moments ago, the life signals of the two Bai Family disciples he had brought out—

Bai Ziliang!

Bai Zixu!

Had actually vanished.

The disappearance of life signals meant the two were already dead.

Otherwise, the life signals would never have vanished.

“Ziliang and Zixu’s life signals disappeared right here!”

The dark clouds gathering on Bai Tingyu’s face seemed ready to drip with water.

Two outstanding disciples of his Bai Family had been killed right under his nose.

For decades, his Bai Family had dominated Ghost Mountain City, and such a thing had never happened before!

Who wouldn’t steer clear upon hearing they were from the Bai Family?

After a thorough search,

Bai Tingyu indeed found a head among a pile of scattered rocks.

The face on this head was covered in bloodstains. Upon closer inspection, Bai Tingyu recognized it as Bai Ziliang’s head.

Bai Ziliang’s expression was one of terror!

Clearly, he had witnessed something unbelievable before his death.

“Ziliang!”

Bai Tingyu couldn’t hold back his tears.

He had watched Bai Ziliang and Bai Zixu grow up since childhood.

He had placed high hopes on both of them.

And they had lived up to expectations, successfully passing the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation at a young age. They were rising stars among the Bai Family’s younger generation, with boundless futures ahead.

But now… it had all come to nothing!

“Soul-Searching Talisman!”

Suppressing his grief, Bai Tingyu took out a talisman covered in runes, from which waves of Yin Energy emanated.

He dripped a drop of blood onto the crimson talisman.

Then, rubbing his hands together,

The Soul-Searching Talisman immediately ignited with an eerie green Ghost Flame.

The eerie green Ghost Flame enveloped the remains of Bai Ziliang’s head.

Moments later, a memory image from just before his death actually surfaced on Bai Ziliang’s head.

In that image,

A figure in white robes could be seen slashing out with a sword, its power immense.

With Bagua Talismans dancing all around.

Then it struck the scene, and the image vanished with a whoosh—extremely brief!

Bai Tingyu watched the image, his expression dark.

The ‘Soul-Searching Talisman’ could extract the final memory before death, forming a visual image.

Of course, there was a time limit.

Once an hour had passed,

Even a ‘Soul-Searching Talisman’ worth millions would be ineffective.

Bai Ziliang had died just half an hour ago, still within this time frame.

“A figure in white robes?”

Bai Tingyu frowned; the figure in white robes looked utterly unfamiliar.

“Unfortunately, with golden light obscuring it, this person’s face is somewhat blurred and impossible to make out clearly.”

“But it doesn’t matter; this ‘Tracking Talisman’ can record this person’s aura!”

Bai Tingyu summoned another talisman.

Tracking Talisman!

This Tracking Talisman floated in the Void, glowing faintly as it gathered and recorded all the surrounding auras.

If it encountered the recorded aura again, the Tracking Talisman would glow.

Confirming the identity of the tracked person.

Moreover, the Tracking Talisman could provide the general direction in which the fleeing person had gone.

When facing the direction of the fleeing person, the Tracking Talisman emits a faint glow, allowing one to confirm the direction of pursuit.

Of course!

The effectiveness of the Tracking Talisman depends on its quality.

The ‘Tracking Talisman’ in Bai Tingyu’s hand is clearly of exceptional quality.

It is likely worth tens of millions!

“Hmph! Kid, you can’t escape!”

“Did you think killing someone from the Bai Family would be that easy?”

A flicker of Malevolent Qi flashed in Bai Tingyu’s eyes.
