Chapter 2469
2469 On the Verge
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the City Lord’s residence, powerful auras rose one after another from all over Absolute Thunder City. Many Execution Guards and Heaven Immortal experts received the news and rushed over when they saw the commotion.
Prince Yuan Zuo said hurriedly, “Su Zimo, let me go. It’s not too late to escape now before the encirclement is formed.”
“Hmph!”
Su Zimo sneered and released the Soul Searching Art on Prince Yuan Zuo without hesitation!
“Ah!”
Prince Yuan Zuo’s Essence Spirit was coiled by pitch-black threads and his body trembled continuously as he let out a tragic cry.
His memories formed images that flashed through Su Zimo’s mind rapidly.
The Soul Searching Art was extremely damaging to a cultivator’s Essence Spirit and the entire process was extremely short.
For Su Zimo, there was no way he could browse through all the memories of Prince Yuan Zuo’s life.
The only thing he could do was to locate the key points in the vast sea of memories as soon as possible!
Suddenly!
Su Zimo’s expression changed and his browsing speed gradually slowed down.
This part of Prince Yuan Zuo’s memories should be from before the Immortal Sect Selection!
Solar Luna County, Cangyu City.
Prince Yuan Zuo sat alone in the dark hall. Right then, an Execution Guard rushed in hurriedly with a letter in his hands.
“Y-Your Highness!”
“What is it?”
Prince Yuan Zuo frowned slightly.
“Someone handed this letter to me and asked me to pass it to you so that you can open it personally!”
“Who is it?”
“I-I’m not sure.”
“For some reason, I felt my consciousness go adrift for a moment. Immediately after, this letter appeared in my hands.”
“…”
The conversation between Prince Yuan Zuo and the Execution Guard seemed to have reappeared in front of Su Zimo.
That secret was about to be revealed!
Instinctively, Su Zimo clenched his fists and continued reading nervously.
Just as Prince Yuan Zuo received the letter and Su Zimo was prepared to read the contents carefully through his eyes, a mysterious power descended and the letter turned into dust instantly!
Immediately after, with a bang, Prince Yuan Zuo’s Essence Spirit exploded on the spot and he died!
Su Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly with a dark expression.
Indeed, there was a high chance for Soul Searching Arts to fail.
However, something had clearly corrupted the scene earlier on, as though someone did not want him to see the contents of the letter!
Someone interfered and forcefully erased Prince Yuan Zuo’s memories.
Su Zimo did not know what was written on the letter.
However, he was finally certain of one thing. Prince Yuan Zuo knew his whereabouts and knew that he was taking part in the Immortal Sect Selection. Furthermore, the reason why he could recognize his disguise was related to this mysterious letter!
Perhaps after he ascended, there was a mysterious person hiding in a corner, paying attention to his every move!
Everything about him was under that person’s surveillance.
At that thought, Su Zimo felt chills run down his spine!
Who could possess such an ability?
Was this person related to the assassination attempt he encountered when he ascended?
Apart from King Yun You, there was another person who tried to kill him back then!
He had heard that person’s voice before and would definitely not forget it.
Su Zimo fell into deep thought and deduced many possibilities. However, he could not connect the dots and match the information he had obtained perfectly.
There seemed to be key information he had missed out on or things he misinterpreted.
The truth seemed to be within reach.
However, when Su Zimo tried to reach for it, he could not get anything.
“Su Zimo, how dare you come to Absolute Thunder City! You truly have a death wish!”
“W-What have you done?! Commander Lone Star? Your Highness Yuan Zuo?”
An angry shout interrupted Su Zimo’s thoughts.
The dozens of Heaven Immortal experts who arrived first were shocked when they saw the shattered hall and the two corpses of Prince Yuan Zuo and Lone Star!
More and more Heaven Immortal experts gathered here.
From the initial dozens of people, there were now hundreds and a thousand of them!
Although there were many Grade 1 and 2 Heaven Immortal experts among the thousand Heaven Immortal experts, the gathering of so many Heaven Immortals still formed a tremendous might!
Furthermore, there were more than 200 Heaven Execution Guards among them.
Those who could become Heaven Execution Guards were all Grade 7, 8 and 9 high-level Heaven Immortal experts who had killed countless people and experienced countless life and death experiences.
Otherwise, these people could not hold the power to punish and kill in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom!
Surrounded by immortals, Su Zimo took a step forward with a calm expression and beheaded Prince Yuan Zuo in front of everyone.
“Su Zimo, how dare you!”
“You’re way too arrogant! How dare you assassinate a prince in Absolute Thunder City! Do you think our Great Jin Immortal Kingdom will let this go if word of this spreads?!”
A few Heaven Immortals shouted, causing quite a stir in the crowd.
Su Zimo raised his head and glanced at the Heaven Immortal around him before saying indifferently, “Let me remind you guys that even Yuan Zuo who was on the Heaven Ranking Prediction was killed by me! Think about your capabilities and don’t come kill yourselves!”
Those words instantly cooled the blood of many Heaven Immortal experts.
In reality, none of them were fools. The reason why they did not attack the entire time was because they were wary.
Su Zimo’s gaze landed on the many Execution Guards around him as he said coldly, “Don’t worry, none of you Execution Guards will be able to escape. I’m going to kill all of you and bury you with Perfected Immortal Burial Night!”
Even if Su Zimo did not say it, the more than 200 Execution Guards in the city and the Heaven Immortal guards of Absolute Thunder City could not retreat and did not dare to!
If they retreated today, they would definitely be severely punished by the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and tortured, living a life worse than death!
A Heaven Execution Guard commander stood out and withdrew the Execution Saber on his waist. He pointed at Su Zimo and said in a deep voice, “Everyone, don’t be intimidated by him. He’s only a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal!”
“Although I don’t know what methods he used to kill His Highness Yuan Zuo and Commander Lone Star, such methods must be extremely rare and can’t be used again in a short period of time.”
“This lad is merely putting on a strong front!”
Another Execution Guard commander of Absolute Thunder City stood out as well and waved his arm, shouting, “That’s right. There are more than a thousand Heaven Immortal experts in the city. If we have to, we can even exhaust him to death!”
The Heaven Immortals who were initially intending to withdraw hesitated once more.
Right then, another Execution Guard suddenly said, “Don’t you guys know yet? Su Zimo obtained the Jade Pure Jade Manual!”
The Jade Pure Jade Manual, a Taboo Mystic Classic!
Many Heaven Immortals were invigorated and their gazes burned instantly.
Those words were more useful than anything else and moved one’s heart!
Many Heaven Immortals subconsciously thought that the reason why Su Zimo was able to kill Prince Yuan Zuo and Lone Star as a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal must be because he cultivated the Taboo Mystic Classic.
“Kill him and take revenge for His Highness Yuan Zuo and snatch the Jade Pure Jade Manual!”
“Kill him!”
Someone in the crowd shouted and instantly received the response of many Heaven Immortals. The battle was on the verge of breaking out!
“HAHAHA!”
Suddenly, Su Zimo reared his head in laughter that reverberated through the clouds like thunder!
“Good, good, good!”
Surveying his surroundings, Su Zimo shouted, “You guys are right. The Jade Pure Jade Manual is in my hands. Since you guys want to see it so badly, I’ll let you guys witness the Dharmic Dao of the Jade Pure Jade Manual today!”
