A mouthful of fresh blood spewed out, and Yan Chen's just-stabilized breathing beca weak again.
He looked at the bright red blood on the desk in front of him with a pained expression.
Blood sprayed onto the mahogany desk, looking particularly conspicuous under the dim yellow light.
Clutching his chest, Yan Chen fell back into his seat, then turned his head to look at the half-open window.
Outside the window, a green teor streaked across the sky, plumting straight down to the ground!
Upon seeing this, Yan Chen's normally placid eyes finally filled with disbelief.
'Larilo actually fell?!'
Thinking this, Yan Chen couldn't help but reach for his chest.
In recent days, he had taken control of Larilo through his domain, then forcibly extracted her spiritual power and vitality using his own abilities!
In just a few days, he had drawn nearly one-third of Larilo's spiritual power and vitality!
All of it was stored inside his chest.
Although the process had been interrupted later and he couldn't directly advance to a Fourth-order Cataclysmic, that didn't an these spiritual powers and vitalities were without effect.
He only needed to refine it for a while, remove the spiritual imprint of Larilo, and he could completely convert it into his nourishnt for advancent.
With this accumulation of spiritual power and vitality, if he collected so more in the future, he could use so opportunity to attempt to advance to a Fourth-order Cataclysmic again!
Therefore, although he hadn't achieved his goal by trapping Larilo this ti, he hadn't suffered a loss either.
It was precisely because of this confidence that Yan Chen decisively lifted his domain and released Larilo upon discovering the major changes in Xinjie City.
Who would have expected that after he released Larilo, she would be killed by soone else!
The spiritual power and vitality he had drawn from Larilo, which hadn't completely severed their connection, suddenly reacted and exploded along with it!
That was the very thing that caused him to suddenly suffer a serious injury!
And that wasn't the end of it...
Thinking this, Yan Chen closed his eyes and sensed the spiritual power and vitality he had drawn from Larilo within his body.
Only a third remained.
Although this power had beco very pure due to the lack of Larilo's spiritual connection and could be directly absorbed,
Yan Chen had laid out his plans for so long and made so much effort, not just for this bit of power!
Thinking this, Yan Chen's eyes turned red with rage...
'Who is it? Who exactly is ruining my plans?'
In the darkness, a suppressed aura burst forth.
If one paid close attention, Yan Chen's strength was only slightly less than Liu Xiongyuan, and it differed little from Tang Feifei or General Ye Mingfeng.
This was completely inconsistent with everyone's assessnt of his strength and the general perception of him as a "civil officer"....
Just then, the door to Yan Chen's study was suddenly pushed open with force. Ji Chen stood at the doorway with a panicked face, and then he said to Yan Chen, "Bureau Chief! A Divine Falling teor! A Divine Falling teor! An Evil God has fallen!"
Ji Chen hadn't even finished speaking!
A 'Boom!' sounded!
His head, as if a firecracker had been stuffed into a waterlon, exploded into a shower of gore!
Yan Chen, perating a slight chill, looked at Ji Chen's corpse with cold, reddened eyes, and he snorted,
"Undisciplined trash!"
After saying that, he took a deep breath of foul air.
"Don't they know to knock before entering the study!"
Perhaps killing soone eased the maliciousness in Yan Chen's heart sowhat.
His eyes gradually returned to that cloudy gray, and his expression once again beca impassive.
After sitting quietly for about two to three minutes, Yan Chen finally stretched out his aged left hand and gently pressed a button on the desk.
A few seconds later, several solemn-looking investigators hurried over.
They glanced at Ji Chen's corpse lying by the doorway of the study, showed surprise at first, then quickly saluted Yan Chen, and only after that did they begin to clean up swiftly.
A minute later, the blood at the doorway of the study and Ji Chen's body were all thoroughly cleaned up and buried in the garden of the backyard.
This newly-appointed Deputy Staff head, who had always been jealous of Qiu Tu and tried several tis to create trouble for him, thus completely vanished from the world...
From beginning to end, Qiu Tu never even looked at him properly, nor did he ever consider him an enemy....
The door to the study slowly closed, keeping the light out and leaving only darkness within the room.
Yan Chen leaned back in his chair, head tilted back, his mind slowly turning.
After killing Ji Chen and venting the frustration in his heart, Yan Chen realized there were even more problems.
Many details about Larilo's fall were suspicious.
As a Fourth-order Evil God, it would have been very difficult to kill her if not for Yan Chen's calculated steps to trap her. Even if outmatched in the real world, she could entirely escape.
Only soone like Yan Chen, who took advantage during Larilo's mont of vulnerability, using an array to forcibly fuse her soul and body, could truly harm her.
Initially, the "credit" for slaying a god was reserved for himself, but now soone else had picked the fruit. It was clear that soone had been watching him and Larilo for so ti.
Moreover, a Fourth-order Evil God that had fled into the Boundless Heart Sea, even if temporarily unable to rge with her main body, could still use the power of the main body.
At the very least, it would take three Third-Order Peak Cataclysmics to have a chance against her...
Thinking this, Yan Chen's cloudy gaze flickered incessantly, and several nas slowly erged in his mind, 'Liu Xiongyuan... Ye Mingfeng... Tang Feifei...'
When he thought of the last na, Yan Chen hesitated for a mont, then shook his head slightly, 'It shouldn't be Tang Feifei. She's setting a trap for in Moonlight Forest tonight.'
