606: Chapter 599: Astonishing Bounty 606: Chapter 599: Astonishing Bounty Whoosh!
When a Warning Talisman suddenly exploded in the sky and lingered for a long ti, Ye Zhen, who had just witnessed this scene, couldn’t help but be stunned.
Almost at the very mont Ye Zhen was startled, another Warning Talisman rose in the distance, hanging high in the sky above the Sun and Moon Divine Sect like a torch.
“This….”
In the midst of rapid thoughts, Ye Zhen imdiately let out a light shout, “Kitten, go!”
In the clouds high above, the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, shrunk to the size of a palm, moved its wings slightly, silently burrowing toward the direction of the Warning Talisman like a bug through the clouds.
On a night like this, when Warning Talismans appeared one after another in quick succession, there was only one possibility—the Sun and Moon Divine Sect had begun the pursuit of Jiao Xi, and Ye Zhen, the orchestrator of it all, could not be clearer about this.
Yet, Ye Zhen was surprised that Jiao Xi hadn’t been captured in one fell swoop, indicating that most likely, the news had leaked.
However, with the strict defense inside the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, it would be very difficult for Jiao Xi to escape.
Hence, Ye Zhen had specifically sent the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten to see Jiao Xi’s final fate.
As for safety concerns, as long as Kitten stayed hidden in the clouds, there shouldn’t be any problems.
While Ye Zhen had dispatched the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, the high-ranking mbers of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect gathered within the Zhu Ling Mansion were also shocked by the consecutive Warning Talismans.
The Head of the Inner Affairs Hall, Zhu Ling, locked onto Yua Hanjing with an undisguised killing intent, “Vice Hall Master Yua, it’s clear that soone tipped off Jiao Xi, allowing him to escape in advance.
Now, how do you explain this?”
“Huh, Hall Master Zhu, I don’t understand what you’re saying!
It’s Jiao Xi’s own legs, what does it have to do with ?
Besides, we’ve worked with Jiao Xi for so many years, nobody has ever noticed him being a fool, right?
Brazenly killing a man and then naively waiting at ho for the Punishnt Hall Law Enforcent Team to co knocking, you surely don’t think Jiao Xi is a fool, do you?”
“You!”
Yua Hanjing was quite a shrewd talker, and once again, Zhu Ling was left speechless with anger!
The expression of Punishnt Hall Elder Tus De, however, turned ice-cold due to the succession of Warning Talismans, “Still hoping to run away?
Co, follow and let’s see for ourselves!”
As he spoke, over a dozen streaks of light instantly followed behind Punishnt Hall Elder Tus De, with Yua Hanjing as no exception.
Yet, just as Yua Hanjing ascended into the sky, her figure paused slightly, and her seductive eyes suddenly filled with venom.
“Hmph, if Jiao Xi is to beco a street rat, I won’t let you, Ye Zhen, off scot-free!
As long as you have anything to do with Zhu Mingxu’s death, I refuse to believe that Zhu Ling will let you go…”
With that, Yua Hanjing, who was about to follow, turned a corner and headed towards the Moonlight Hall.
Within one of the hundred chambers of the Moonlight Hall, Ye Zhen gazed up at the dense flashes of light in the sky of the Divine Sect.
Suddenly, his pupils constricted sharply as a red streak of light, like a Fire teor, dashed straight toward him!
“Hmm?
Yua Hanjing?”
Ye Zhen’s expression instantly turned grave, and with a thought, his Purple Jade Battle Armor instantly enveloped his entire body.
Almost at the sa ti, a mass of firelight headed towards Ye Zhen’s face, and within the radiance, an almost transparent yet fla-ridden palm print bore down on his chest!
Fire Spirit Hand!
One of Yua Hanjing’s Divine Power Martial Skills, Fire Spirit Hand!
“Get lost!” Just as the Fire Spirit Hand was about to land, Yua Hanjing shouted angrily at Ye Zhen.
With a thought, the Geomagnetic Field activated as expected, and Ye Zhen’s figure, like a starlight, shifted the instant before the Fire Spirit Hand reached his chest.
The diving Yua Hanjing’s eyes revealed a sudden glint of shock; she had intended to give Ye Zhen a harsh blow, but unexpectedly, he evaded.
After all, with her position, as long as she didn’t kill Ye Zhen, beating him to the point of vomiting blood was sothing nobody within the Sect could fault her for!
“Hmph, I must vent my anger today.
Even if I can’t kill him, I have to make sure he lies down for a few days!”
With malicious thought, Yua Hanjing’s diving figure swirled, and in an instant, she split into over a dozen fiery silhouettes, each one seemingly real, with firelight swirling and vortex-like, bombarding Ye Zhen.
In an instant, Ye Zhen’s expression tensed to the extre; the re pressure from those fiery silhouettes made it difficult for him to breathe, suggesting that this move was definitely one of Yua Hanjing’s top Divine Power Martial Skills!
The person before him was, after all, a powerhouse of the Seventh Stage of Vein Forging Realm!
Ding!
As Ye Zhen braced himself, the clear sound of colliding rings suddenly rang out, and a purple and a green radiance, like teors chasing the moon, fiercely struck one of the silhouettes.
Bang!
The red, green, and purple lights burst into one, and the dozen fiery silhouettes that had appeared just a mont ago vanished in an instant.
“Demon woman, I saw you heading towards my Moonlight Hall with ill intentions, and sure enough, you were up to no good!” Unbeknownst to when, Fengh Qingyue had already stood in front of Ye Zhen, with the Purple and Blue Double Rings floating in front of her chest, the cyan and purple glows elegantly intertwining.
“Hmph, I’m here on orders to investigate a case, who are you to interfere?” Yua Hanjing glared at Fengh Qingyue with resentnt, her figure abruptly turning as she rushed into the Silent Chamber where Ye Zhen was.
Seeing this, Ye Zhen’s expression shifted, and the corners of his mouth revealed a trace of smugness; this ti, Yua Hanjing’s calculations were likely to co to nothing, as he had already taken care of the matter thoroughly!
The next mont, Yua Hanjing ca storming in, furious, holding the body of the Maid Miaoo Yu, who had not been dead for long, “Ye Zhen, for unjustifiably killing a maid of the Sect, what are your intentions?”
“This Miaoo Yu harbored ill intentions and disrupted my Cultivation, nearly causing to be overwheld by internal fire.
Naturally, I slapped her to death.
What, is she your relative?”
Fengh Qingyue’s eyebrows slightly furrowed at first, displeased by Ye Zhen’s casual killing of a maid by his side.
However, she quickly reasoned that there must be more to it; otherwise, with Yua Hanjing’s temperant, why would she deliberately barge into Ye Zhen’s Silent Chamber to advocate for a maid?
Yua Hanjing’s eyes suddenly burst with a terrifying divine light as she stared, her beautiful eyes wide and round, “Good lad, I did underestimate you before!
However, the targets I, Yua Hanjing, set my sights on, have never escaped my grasp!”
With a cold snort, Yua Hanjing soared into the sky and hastily left.
“Thank you!”
After Yua Hanjing left, Ye Zhen cupped his hands towards Feng Qingyue in thanks.
Feng Qingyue waved her hand nonchalantly, a look of confusion on her face, “I’m very curious, why Yua Hanjing would co bursting into the courtyard, even stopping to talk to a maid?
Did you do sothing?”
“That maid, Miaoyu, was a spy Yua Hanjing conveniently placed by my side, seeking to harm ,” Ye Zhen explained.
“Even so, she shouldn’t have co here at such a critical mont…” Feng Qingyue’s voice trailed off as a Dao Talisman Communication suddenly flew from the sky and fell into her hands.
She only took one look at it before her expression dramatically changed.
“Escaped?”
“What, who escaped?” Ye Zhen suddenly had a bad premonition.
“Jiao Xi!
After killing Zhu Mingxu, the Punishnt Hall dispatched a law enforcent team to pursue him.
Jiao Xi not only resisted arrest but also injured two Sun and Moon Divine Guards before escaping the Divine Sect!” Feng Qingyue’s elegant brows furrowed.
“Escaped the Divine Sect?” This answer deeply disappointed Ye Zhen, “Didn’t anyone pursue him?”
“He’s already lost his trail; Elder Tu will continue to arrange for the law enforcent team to hunt him down, but Hall Master Zhu, in his rage, issued a Bounty Order!” Feng Qingyue said.
“A Bounty Order?”
“Whoever provides information on Jiao Xi’s whereabouts will be rewarded with a hundred thousand mid-grade Spirit Crystals; whoever delivers Jiao Xi’s head to him will be rewarded with ten thousand high-grade Spirit Crystals!
Whoever captures Jiao Xi alive and presents him…,” Feng Qingyue’s expression suddenly beca sowhat strange as she spoke.
“Captures Jiao Xi alive, and the reward is what?”
“A low-grade Spiritual Artifact!”
“A low-grade Spiritual Artifact?”
Ye Zhen sharply inhaled, shocked.
The Head of the Inner Affairs Hall, Zhu Ling, was indeed very generous.
Thinking of his past actions, Ye Zhen couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
Luckily, he was aware of the situation and had pinned the cri on Jiao Xi.
Otherwise, these rewards alone might have driven Ye Zhen into a corner.
To capture Jiao Xi alive ant a low-grade Spiritual Artifact!
A low-grade Spiritual Artifact, what did that an?
Among a hundred Vein Forging Realm powerhouses, those who possessed a low-grade Spiritual Artifact definitely wouldn’t surpass five.
In other words, this Bounty Order could move the heart of most Vein Forging Realm powerhouses.
Not only was the reward for capturing Jiao Xi alive generous, but his head was also worth a fortune!
Ten thousand high-grade Spirit Crystals, worth at the very least one million two hundred thousand mid-grade Spirit Crystals, or even more.
“Exactly, Hall Master Zhu Ling, he really has gone all out this ti!” Feng Qingyue said.
“With such a heavy reward, Jiao Xi is undoubtedly dood,” Ye Zhen remarked.
“Not necessarily so!”
“Why not?” Ye Zhen was sowhat taken aback.
“Jiao Xi is at the Fifth Stage of Vein Forging Realm; among the powerhouses of Vein Forging Realm, he’s not just above average, he’s quite high up there!
As I know, both of his Divine Power Martial Skills are at the Heavenly Level Middle Grade.
With such strong Cultivation, even martial artists at the Sixth or Seventh Stage of Vein Forging Realm might not necessarily be able to kill him!
If he truly fights desperately, he might be able to carve out a bloody path for himself….
Moreover, the martial artists who would go after Jiao Xi for the reward likely have just average combat power…”
“Ah….”
Ye Zhen was taken aback, shock plastered on his face.
If that was the case, then his previous calculations would have all been in vain.
What’s worse, now allowing Jiao Xi to escape ant gaining a new enemy hidden in the shadows.
If Jiao Xi really got away, Ye Zhen would truly have to be on guard every day, especially since Jiao Xi had been the Third Commander of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect and was extrely familiar with the Sect’s defenses…
“We definitely can’t let Jiao Xi get away….” In an instant, Ye Zhen had an idea.
“Qingyue, Hall Master Zhu’s Bounty Order, it’s for everyone in the Divine Sect, right?” Ye Zhen suddenly asked.
“Of course!”
As Feng Qingyue replied, she looked at Ye Zhen with a suddenly surprised gaze, “Ye Zhen, you’re not thinking of…”
“Certainly, such an attractive reward, I must try my luck.
Maybe I’ll bump into a severely injured Jiao Xi….” By the ti he finished speaking, his voice had faded away; and when the sound rose, Ye Zhen had already soared into the sky.
“Trying luck?”
As Feng Qingyue gazed at the night sky where Ye Zhen’s figure disappeared, her expression was complicated.
Was it possible to just rely on luck?
At the sa mont, a Dao Talisman Communication abruptly fell into Yua Hanjing’s palm.
Upon seeing the talisman, Yua Hanjing imdiately breathed a sigh of relief, “He managed to escape, that’s good….” (To be continued.
