Chapter 1346: General Tiger Roar Ran

Cultivators in Bounded Zero Place had the same motives. Who would risk their lives for nothing?

The World of Darkness’ greatest enemy was that clan. However, the characteristics of that clan were very unique and their cultivation art could not be mimicked. If they exchanged blows, they would be able to sense that clan.

Other cultivators from the Southwest Desolate Region would not dare to enter Bounded Zero Place, especially if they were True Saints. While there might be a few Half-Saints who were outstanding, there was no way they had such strength.

Who was this person?

This thought sped through his head like a bolt of lightning and surprise filled his eyes.

While Li Zhouyi was strong, he was far from the role of leader. There were a few who were more outstanding than him who had reached out to General Tiger Roar.

As the great general in the West Desolate Region, General Tiger Roar had a stable position. Before he saw the full picture, he would not easily take action.

This time, he was going against his normal ways by reaching out to Li Zhouyi first. He even allowed his darkness puppet to enter the Southwest Desolate Region. The reason was the Inextinguishable Flame in Li Zhouyi’s hands.

This item caught the attention of all the powerful people in the Southwest Desolate Region and many people had a lot of hopes for it.

Although Bounded Zero Place was large, the World of Darkness had searched it for many years. They covered every inch of the place and did a thorough search. Nothing came from it and they were unable to locate any treasures.

There were two possible explanations for this. Firstly, there wasn’t any treasure left by the Ruler. Secondly, it was hidden in a place that people could not access.

General Tiger Roar did not know the underlying reason. However, the Desolate King seemed to have a way to confirm that there was a treasure of the Ruler in Bounded Zero Place.

It was possible that the treasure had already been taken. The only place in Bounded Zero Place that the World of Darkness had not touched was the burning Mountain of Flames.

The Inextinguishable Flame in Li Zhouyi’s hands was something that the West Desolate spent numerous years and experience to obtain. It was for them to enter the Mountain of Flames.

With this thought, General Tiger Roar’s heart turned cold and his eyes narrowed. Did this person desire what Li Zhouyi had? Was he going to foil General Tiger Roar’s plans?

After the Great Massacre back then, the West Desolate entered a period of internal chaos. The undead cried for hundreds of years. Who was still willing to take the risk?

Logically, the possibility of this was very small. But the attacker was not from that clan. There was also no identity this person matched up to. So where was he from?

Furthermore, the first time General Tiger Roar met this man, he had a very pure darkness aura that was definitely real. Otherwise, General Tiger Roar would not have fallen for the trick so easily.

General Tiger Roar had a lot of mixed emotions. If this man was from the desolate region, his power could be explained.

There were many strong cultivators in the Great Desolate. Some of these talented cultivators did not have a high cultivation rank but they were incredible in combat. It was common for such cultivators to fight beyond their cultivation rank. For these people, entering Bounded Zero Place was easy and they did not need to consider the rules restriction. They could even crush the puppet of a True Saint.

The more he thought about it, the greater this possibility seemed.

General Tiger Roar had a throbbing headache. Opposite him, Qin Yu was unaware that so many thoughts ran through his head at once.

Even if he knew, he could not explain it.

Concealing his identity was of utmost importance to Qin Yu. The more General Tiger Roar thought about it, the more happy Qin Yu would be.

Boom –

A ball of innate spirit energy burned. Qin Yu closed the distance and unleashed an attack, directly breaking apart the white armor. Was he close to killing this puppet of the True Saint?

I will take your life while you are in pain!

He was thrown backward again and the cracks in his white armor deepened. The entire chest section of the armor was full of cracks.

A sharp pain shot through him. General Tiger Roar could feel the complete break down of the puppet’s chest. At most, it would only be able to withstand one more blow unless he risked everything, including his Great Dao.

At this point, the thought of retreating crossed General Tiger Roar’s mind.

In fact, before he guessed the background of his opponent, he already knew that he ought not to be involved in this.

This person dared to commit such crimes and he even attacked Li Zhouyi at such a moment. For him to risk everything for the Great Desolate and stop his superior, he was no ordinary person.

Many images of people filled his head; some were men and some were women. However, the common point they shared was that they were not to be provoked.

The Desolate King would investigate this matter thoroughly. If he left now, he would be involved in a much lesser extent. Otherwise, he might be dragged into a deeper trouble.

More importantly, General Tiger Roar was not willing to lose his puppet body. Entering the Southwest Desolate Region was not easy, especially with the strict guidelines for a True Saint. He had expended a lot of energy in order to create this puppet.

Knowing this, why would he continue to cause harm to his puppet?

Seeing Qin Yu rush towards him, General Tiger Roar yelled, “Stop! I will retreat now and take my hands off this matter!”

Qin Yu was stunned. Which general would leave his superior and run for his life?

The World of Darkness cultivators in Bounded Zero Place would not really die. Furthermore, this was just a puppet body that was going to be killed. There was no urgent need for General Tiger Roar to flee.

Many thoughts rushed through Qin Yu’s mind and he scanned his surroundings. General Tiger Roar appeared fearful and tired. A sudden thought popped into Qin Yu’s mind. Did General Tiger Roar overthink? What did he think Qin Yu’s background was?

A lot of times, things were like this, seemingly illogical. However, changing a perspective to look at things would paint the picture in a brighter light.

Should he let General Tiger Roar go? Qin Yu hesitated before making his decision.

Yes!

He could not be killed so why bother with a puppet? Letting General Tiger Roar go would also make people doubtful of his identity.

Qin Yu straightened himself and stopped attacking, “It seems that you have also realized. I am operating under orders; please do not blame me.”

This was a confirmation of what General Tiger Roar thought. His eyes narrowed and his heart beat faster. Who on earth was he to be so confident? He directly admitted it!

Were they not afraid of the Desolate King’s investigation? Unless…this incident was directed by the Desolate King himself.

It was long rumored that Li Zhouyi was recognized by the previous Desolate King. However, the current Desolate King looked highly upon the third prince, Li Yun. If this matter involved the contest between the two generations of Desolate King, General Tiger Roar’s intervention would be akin to digging his own grave.

Cold sweat came from General Tiger Roar. He glanced at Qin Yu and then sighed, “I will not tell anyone of today’s matter. Goodbye.” He turned and left, ignoring the Wolf Guard left in the cave. The only thing he wished for now was to be able to run faster.

As General Tiger Roar rose into the sky and tore through the turbulent space waves to leave, Qin Yu’s mouth twitched. Being smart was tiring. He did not even do anything but General Tiger Roar was scared away.

However, Qin Yu was glad that General Tiger Roar was willing to retreat by himself. He took in a deep breath as his cold eyes scanned his surroundings, “General Tiger Roar has retreated. Are you guys still going to stop me?”

The crowd of World of Darkness cultivators were hesitant. They were frightful after what just happened. To them, it was obvious that Qin Yu came from the West Desolate and he was an assassin sent by Li Zhouyi’s opponent. Qin Yu’s background was scary. Otherwise, General Tiger Roar would not back off on his own accord without cursing at Qin Yu.

If they had a choice, they would want to leave. However, Li Zhouyi was still in the cave. If they left without putting up a fight, the consequences would be dire.

They would not really die but they would lose an avatar…

“Protect His Highness!”

Someone barked out an order and the World of Darkness cultivators rushed to attack.

Qin Yu sighed to himself; if only he could scare them away.

He was already surprised that things turned out this way. Do not be too greedy. Since these men were not going to run, Qin Yu would send them on their way.

Qin Yu raised his hand and punched out. Powerful energy rushed forward like a wave, trapping three World of Darkness men within.

At this point when Qin Yu began his massacre, a World of Darkness cultivator turned and entered the cave.

……

Li Zhouyi frowned as he turned to look at the entrance. General Tiger Roar had been gone for quite a while but he was not able to resolve the issue. It felt like a massive earthquake came from outside. It must be a powerful enemy.

The first thought in his mind was that the enemy was from that clan. After all, they were the only ones who dared to offend the World of Darkness.

Could that swordsman be from that clan too? Was he attacking now to steal the Inextinguishable Flame in his hands?

Li Zhouyi sighed and anger and surprise filled his chest. If that was the case, it was troublesome. He glanced at the deep end of the cave. There was only a little left of the thing hidden under the Inextinguishable Flame.

It looked like it could be refined at any time. However, its energy did not complement the Inextinguishable Flame and it was a critical moment now. Previously, Li Zhouyi was still willing to backtrack; he had to persevere forward and see it through.

Otherwise he might have to withstand the backlash from refinement when he called off the process. The consequences would be dire.

Damn it!

Faster, hurry up!

Once he completed the refinement, his control over the Inextinguishable Flame would surge. Even if it was that clan, he was still confident that he would be able to teach them a good lesson.

Kaboom –

The commotion grew closer. The enemy was truly strong. Li Zhouyi could only rest assured knowing that General Tiger Roar was close by. With his strength, even if he could not kill the enemy, he could hold them off.

Li Zhouyi only needed an hour at the most and he would finish the last step. At that point, he would take the opportunity to show General Tiger Roar his strength and win the general’s trust.

That’s right, that’s how he would do it!

Li Zhouyi’s eyes sparkled. Regardless of who the enemy was, Li Zhouyi would not let him off easily for trying to disrupt his plans.

Right at that moment, there was a loud sound as a World of Darkness cultivator rushed into the cave in a frenzy and knocked his head. He wailed, “Your Highness, Your Highness, General Tiger Roar ran away…”
