Chapter 92: Jing Kun Has Evolved

Royal Capital, inside a certain small house.

“Cough cough!”

A muffled cough rang out.

Jing Kun covered his mouth, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his lips.

“Damn it! Why does someone always come to save that brat at the critical moment!”

According to last night’s situation, Jing Kun could have finished the other party himself, but in the end, a Daoist popped up and ruined his plans.

“Drink some medicine first.”

A rough voice sounded.

Wan San walked over holding a bowl of medicine.

He hadn’t been injured much last night.

Jing Kun took the medicine bowl.

He had run out of pills on his body.

He’d finished them during those days of fleeing for his life.

Wan San sat to the side and sighed.

“If you ask me, we should just run to the nearby Beast Sea. That’s Dragon Clan territory—neither the Demon Clan nor Human Clan forces can get in.”

Ever since the end of the ancient era, both the Human Clan and Demon Clan (Beast) had suffered greatly, especially the Dragon Clan.

After a long period of recuperation, the Dragon Clan’s strength gradually recovered.

Though not as formidable as in ancient times, they’re still not the kind of existence to be provoked by just anyone.

Jing Kun finished the medicine, also considering Wan San’s words.

“But don’t forget, we’ve already started to demonize. Even if the Beast Sea is Dragon Clan territory, once our demonization is discovered, it’s a dead end.”

On the Xuan Tian Continent, while conflicts between the Human Clan and Demon Clan (Beast) were constant, often leading to some physically ‘friendly’ exchanges, they shared a consensus regarding the Demon Clan: if discovered, destroy without mercy, leave no survivors.

Jing Kun set down the bowl, his complexion looking a bit healthier.

“I’ve already reported the situation to the Demon Clan. I believe they’ll send people over. As long as the Demon Clan launches an attack, everything will get better.”

Wan San remained silent.

At this point, there was no other choice.

Having chosen demonization, there was no way back for them.

Boom!

At that moment, a tremor shook the place.

Along with it came three auras.

Among them, one was unmistakable to Jing Kun.

“Qin Mu!”

These two words were squeezed out through Jing Kun’s clenched teeth.

Now that he had fallen to such a state, the culprit was Qin Mu!

“Damn it! How did they find this place!”

Unlike Jing Kun’s fury, Wan San was flustered and panicked.

“We have to go! We can’t stay here!”

Wan San prepared to take Jing Kun and flee, but Jing Kun stood up and moved forward instead.

“What are you doing!”

Wan San said in a low voice.

Jing Kun’s aura grew more frenzied, his body beginning to demonize.

“If you’re leaving, go first. I must kill Qin Mu!”

At this moment, Jing Kun was on the verge of madness.

***

Outside, Qin Mu watched Chun Yunzi unleash a wild bombardment.

He had to admit, firepower coverage felt great!

Judging by the progress, it wouldn’t be long before the defensive array was completely broken.

“Jie jie jie! You three seem to be having fun.”

A sinister voice sounded.

Qin Mu was startled by the sound.

That was a classic villain laugh!

A cloud of blood mist appeared.

Two figures emerged from within.

Scarlet robes, slender forms, and a dark, oppressive aura—members of the Demon Clan.

Buzz—

Waves of aura radiated—Golden Core Realm!

“Jie jie, what a big harvest this time, to actually encounter the Daoist genius Chun Yunzi.”

The crimson eyes of Jiuhu Fa stared at Chun Yunzi in mid-air, licking his lips.

“Also, these two brats aren’t bad either.”

Beside him, Bahufa stared at Qin Mu and Liu Zixi, a covetous look in his eyes.

“People of the Demon Clan! Impossible!”

Qin Mu hurriedly drew a talisman.

This was the Royal Capital of the Great Yu Dynasty—how could the Demon Clan dare show up?!

“Jie jie.”

Jiuhu Fa raised his palm, violent true energy gathering.

“We may be of the Demon Clan, but we’re only at the Golden Core Realm. The experts of the court only guard against those above the Nascent Soul Realm. Below Nascent Soul, they don’t care.”

Jiuhu Fa kindly answered Qin Mu’s doubts.

Whoosh!

Chun Yunzi flew to Qin Mu’s side.

Facing two Demon Clan Golden Core Realm, even he felt the pressure.

At this moment, Jing Kun and Wan San appeared as well.

Seeing the Demon Clan elders exuding Golden Core Realm aura before him, Jing Kun froze, then felt wild joy.

Heaven never seals all paths.

It seemed he, Jing Kun, wouldn’t die here today!

Bahufa glanced at the two, flicking his finger.

Two pills floated before them.

“You two did well. Next, go activate the Great Array. We will hold Chun Yunzi here.”

Bahufa spoke lightly, his gaze turning to Chun Yunzi.

As someone about to step into the Nascent Soul Realm, Chun Yunzi would be a tough opponent for Bahufa alone, but with Jiuhu Fa added, they were confident in capturing this Daoist genius alive.

Swallowing the pills given by Bahufa, Jing Kun and Wan San exchanged glances and hurried toward the direction of the Great Array.

“You go ahead. I’ll hold them off!”

Chun Yunzi’s eyes were grave.

With a wave of his sleeve, a gust of wind swept Qin Mu and Liu Zixi away.

“Jie jie jie, trying to stop us alone? How arrogant.”

Jiuhu Fa extended his claws, eyes filled with ferocity.

A bead of cold sweat rolled down Chun Yunzi’s chin.

Two Demon Clan protectors—there was no escaping a bitter battle.

***

Elsewhere, Qin Mu and Liu Zixi quickly caught up to Jing Kun.

“Don’t resist needlessly. Surrender.”

Qin Mu drew his long sword, staring at Jing Kun.

“Such arrogance!”

Wan San’s body suddenly expanded, muscles bulging.

Liu Zixi stepped forward, true energy surging within her.

Qin Mu reached out and tugged on Senior Sister Zixi’s sleeve, whispering,

“Senior Sister Zixi, just hold them off. I’ll handle things here!”

“Mm.”

Liu Zixi nodded.

“Don’t worry, Junior Brother. I won’t let him interfere with you.”

Watching Liu Zixi’s graceful figure move away, Qin Mu turned his gaze back to Jing Kun.

“Stop running. Today, let’s settle things between us.”

Facing the heavily injured Jing Kun, Qin Mu was fully confident he could win in a duel.

If he couldn’t win, he’d swallow his sword!

“Haha! Run?”

Jing Kun pulled out the box he dug up last night.

Wan San had taken it when he slipped away.

Opening the box, Jing Kun took out a blood-red bead.

“Qin Mu! It’s your fault I ended up like this! Today, I’ll make you wish for death!”

With that, Jing Kun swallowed the bead in one gulp.

Boom!

Jing Kun’s body instantly exploded.

“Damn!”

Qin Mu jumped back in shock.

“This guy… so ruthless to himself!”

Qin Mu stared at the spot where Jing Kun had disappeared, not even a trace remaining, and clicked his tongue.

Too ruthless.

This guy was a true madman!

However, in the next instant, the blood on the ground turned into streams of crimson mist.

“Ahahaha! I succeeded!”

That voice!

Qin Mu’s eyes widened.

Didn’t Jing Kun just self-destruct?!

The crimson mist gathered, forming a monster over three meters tall.

“See?! This is my complete form! The perfect fusion of human and demon!”

On the massive body, Jing Kun’s human-sized head looked oddly out of place.

No good!

This guy has super-evolved!

Seeing Jing Kun’s state, Qin Mu realized he was now at Golden Core Realm strength.

Not long ago, he was at Qi Refining Stage like Qin Mu himself.

After demonization, he reached Foundation Establishment Stage, and now, Golden Core Realm.

Young Master Qin shed tears.

From beginning to end, he had always been at Qi Refining Stage…
