Chapter 779

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
The people who died did not belong to the tribe and were people who had just arrived at the city gates.

Moreover, Chase might look young, but he was quite powerful. It was better to know less about what happened to avoid any trouble. Harold asked Chase the question based on this attitude.

"About three to five days," Chase told him a random timeline. Three to five days should be enough time for him to investigate how the divine crystal had attracted attention.

"Alright. It's agreed, then. You may stay in the city lord's manor for these five days."

Harold called out to Scanlon and instructed him to bring Chase to a private little courtyard on the east of the manor.

Even though Chase was not willing to stay in the manor, it was not a good idea to reject Harold's offer at this time. Staying at the manor would only make it inconvenient for him to investigate anything.

After leading Chase to his accommodation, Scanlon, who was always careful when conducting work, quickly met Harold ins

    Rain was still falling heavily outside the window. It was not often to see such heavy rain, but it was still somewhat expected.Chase's ears moved slightly. He seemed to have caught the sound of children laughing and playing in the alley outside the courtyard.Not long after Chase finished a glass of wine, he heard the soft voice of a woman sobbing.He was unperturbed by it. After that, there was a series of coughing from an old man that slowly got further away.The courtyard Chase was staying at was situated on the very far end of the east side. It was at the end of the alley and was a dead end.Chase put his wine glass down and poured more wine into it. He walked out of the room with the glass in his hand. He opened the door, and for a quick instant, it looked like the sky was raining blood.It happened in a blink of an eye before everything returned to normal. There was nothing unusual besides the moist air billowing around the courtyard.Chase moved a chair to the door and s

    Rolfene exaggerated even more as she went on. Chase raised his wine glass and pointed outside the door to indicate it was time for Rolfene to go out there to make some friends.That was when she stopped her chattering.Chase finally returned to his room and shut the door to have some sleep. As for Rolfene, who knew if she required any sleep?He slept until the next morning.Scanlon shouted from outside the courtyard door early in the morning for Chase to have breakfast with Harold as Harold had extended an invitation. Harold was having a family banquet, and as Chase was staying at the manor, he was invited as well.Chase had no choice but to accept the invitation as he was staying at Harold's home.He cleaned up his room and followed Scanlon to the main building of the manor.Chase asked while they were on their way, "Did anything strange happen last night?"Scanlon hesitated at the question but did not say anything.Chase had a good guess about the situation.He followed Sca

    Harold did not display any prideful attitude throughout. He was quite humble and polite. Chase almost thought he might give Chase a nickname.However, Chase was wrong about the situation.When the banquet came close to an end, Harold made no mention of needing any help.All he did was apologize to Chase for not taking better care of him as a guest of Eagle City.Harold bade his goodbye after breakfast by claiming he had work to do. He instructed Scanlon to take Chase around the city.Chase and Harold went their separate ways after that.Scanlon brought Chase to visit the busiest part of the city. Even though Chase kept insisting that he did not want to bother Scanlon as he could visit the city on his own, Scanlon stubbornly maintained that he had to bring Chase around because it was Harold's instruction.Chase could only let him be while trying to think up an excuse to sneak off.Fortunately, Scanlon knew that it might not be appropriate for an old man like him to stick by Chas

    It was clear that Chase could not figure out a better way to deal with this. If he took action, he could kill the supernatural being, but Rania would have to die with it."That would be a little difficult, but there might be a way if I can get in contact with that living person. Although, I might still need to pay some price for it," Rolfene replied after some thought."Can you share the solution with me? I'd like to learn something new." Chase was clearly interested in supernatural beings."To put it plainly, that supernatural being is still possessing that person because it's not done eating away that person's vital essence. Her vital essence must still be inside the supernatural being. All I need to do is to possess her too and devour that supernatural being. After that, I'll return the vital essence to that woman and she will be saved!" Rolfene told Chase honestly."If you're devouring the supernatural being and returning the vital essence to that woman, which belonged to her i

    Chase turned to look, and from what he could see, the adult and child in plain white clothes had appeared once more at the end of the alley. The child continued staring at Chase with bright red eyes. Blood was seeping out of them, flowing down his pale, snowy cheeks.The adult holding the child's hand had no features on his face. It was like a piece of thick, white cloth. No one could see if he had eyes, a nose, or even a mouth.Both of them slowly approached Chase.They walked slowly toward the door of Chase's courtyard, but Chase was unperturbed. He took a step closer to them and stood at the edge of the stairs as if waiting for them to attack him at any time.The child, whose face was covered with blood, kept staring at Chase. When he saw that Chase was not afraid, he said, "Your flesh smells really good. Can I have a few bites? It'll really just be a few bites. Can I?"He spoke very slowly, but he did not stop walking forward. He walked past Chase, and his back was now facing

    Harold saw Chase walk in.He was at his wit's end and blabbered to Chase about what happened. He held some hope and asked Chase, "Is there anything you can do about this, Chase?""There is a way, but I have a request after this is resolved." Chase had previously discussed this with Rolfene and knew what to do in this situation."Nothing is more important than this, Chase. Please help save my daughter. I promise to do anything for you." It was apparent how important Rania was to Harold."Alright. While I can get this done, I hope you, Mrs. Scanlon, and everyone else will give me some privacy. Please don't try to find out my ways as this involves confidentiality on my part." Chase solemnly made this request before he did anything to help Rania.Who knew what Harold might do if he found out about Rolfene's existence? After all, his daughter was possessed by something just like Rolfene."Who is he, Lord Scanlon? Don't make the wrong decision out of your anxiousness. None of us can do

    Rania stopped her quiet gasping and suddenly sat up to stare at Rolfene.Chase sat at the door as he quietly closed his eyes to rest. He looked like he had handed the situation completely over to Rolfene. He stood guard at the door to prevent the supernatural being inside of Rania from escaping. It was better to be careful."Stop putting on an act. Come out here to chat," Rolfene said once more."I didn't expect to meet someone like me in a small place like Eagle City," Rania finally spoke, but the voice did not belong to her. It sounded like someone much older and experienced. "Well, I guess you're just too inexperienced," Rolfene replied haughtily."I'm curious. We're both supernatural beings who chose the unorthodox path and fought against every rule and restriction of society. How did you end up with a human?"Rania asked Rolfene while glancing at Chase, who was guarding the door."You shouldn't ask that question. It's none of your business. Let's talk about this. Let go of

    After all, this happened because Chase had acted obstinately.What happened next was much easier to deal with.Chase put up an act by first getting Harold and the others into the room and informing them that he had resolved the root of the problem.Even though Harold asked many questions about the process after entering the room, Chase managed to provide answers to him that seemed to be solid. It sounded as if Chase was the one who did all of it.Harold was filled with gratitude and insisted on keeping Chase at the manor to talk about it.Chase finally could not take it and gave the excuse that he had wounded himself internally while treating Rania so that he could leave. He returned to his private courtyard.Next, it was time to get his reward.They had agreed that Harold would help him fulfill one request after Chase cured Rania.Chase had wanted Harold to help him find out more information about the divine crystal but changed his mind.If he mentioned the divine crystal, Ha

    "Damn it! I shouldn't have been defeated so quickly even if I hadn't healed from my injury!"The man in black clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes slightly. He wanted to kill Chase badly and turn him into dust.He thought that if he exerted some power, the bumpkin in front of him would kneel and beg for mercy, but things turned out differently. That bumpkin had actually faced three moves from him without losing and even made him cough up blood."Roar!"The man suddenly shouted, and the air around began to contort. A terrifying wind galed and took Chase with it.After that, the man leaped like an eagle hunting a rabbit and went for the kill. An eerie light black as ink wisped around his right fist as he dealt out a vicious punch. His punch was like a venomous snake leaping out of the hole. It was precise and vicious, and quick as lightning.Chase's eyes widened as he moved half a foot to the side. It was a close call as the lethal blow almost landed on him. He kicked at the ma

    This was a huge palace that stood as tall as the mountains. It was glittering and brilliant with various paintings and images hung on the walls. Some were of deities visiting the moon and playing musical instruments, some were of phoenixes flying through the clouds. There were others of dragons roaring and griffins clawing in a dance. They were lifelike and looked real."Where is this?" Chase looked around in a daze.Meanwhile, deep inside the palace, a man in a purple shirt approached Chase.He had a good-looking face and nice features. The man was tall and exuded a strong aura. He was like a deity."W-Who are you?"Chase was flabbergasted. This man intimidated him. Chase felt a heavy pressure above him, which almost suffocated him."Who are you? Why did you barge into the forbidden land of my ancient country?" The man sounded calm. He had a hand behind his back and looked down on Chase when he spoke."Ancient country?" Chase was taken aback at the man's words. Was this the leg

    There was a muffled sound, and the leaf turned into dust. The man's palm was unscathed. All he had was some dust on his sleeve."You…" Chase's eyes widened with great fear. He was aware that all that man had to do was blow some air and Chase would be dead for sure."This can't continue. There'll be hope as long as I'm still alive. I have to leave this godforsaken place right now!" Chase made a quick decision. He stood up right away and made a mad dash for the coastline."Die, you lowly ant!"A roar echoed in the air, and Chase's movement slowed. He felt a chill.A massive power came crashing down like the skyline was collapsing. It suppressed everything in all corners and was suffocating.Chase's knees gave out, his bones cracking. He fell kneeling to the ground. His shoulders were trembling, and he was in great pain."I need to run as far as I can!" Chase was filled with great fear. He gave everything he could to channel true energy and ran crazily to the front."Hmph! Trying

    The martial artists who survived in the land where light and dark convened were naturally tainted by evil energy.

Resentment was everywhere, and evil spirits would constantly appear. That place was covered in dark fog, and spirits roamed. Every corner of it was dangerous and had high death rates.

    "Unfortunately, we chose to stay behind back then. There's no other way. If we aren't able to stop the balance from being destroyed, the martial realm will meet with catastrophe."All three elders looked at each other and sighed.That was when a skinny middle-aged man suddenly pushed the door open and entered. He gave them a fist and palm salute. "Masters, I have something urgent to report."An emerald slip appeared in the man's hand."Oh? Is there news of the influential families of the martial realm?""I can't believe there's news so soon."All three elders were surprised.It had only been 15 minutes since it happened, and there was already news. That was not easy to obtain.All three elders were top powerhouses with strong capabilities. However, they were hopeful that the news was true and reliable. They took the emerald slip and used the divine sense technique to check the news in it."What?!" "The martial realm's Secret Sect has been destroyed?!"All three of them rais

    "I understand it now. This is a spiritual stone tablet with a record of a mysterious Soul Refining Technique!"Chase looked delighted.The Soul Refining Technique was used to refine a person's soul and purify the Origin of the Soul."That's really powerful!"Chase opened his eyes and took a sharp breath. "The things left behind by powerhouses of the nether realm are really incredible. Such treasure is highly valuable. Even a small piece of this would be enough for powerhouses to fight over it!"A notion crossed his mind, and a massive soul energy surged. The spiritual tablet was instantly crushed by the soul energy.The spiritual tablet was crushed to dust and recondensed into an emerald slip that floated in the air. It gradually flew toward Chase."Huh? That isn't right."There was a cold look in Chase's eyes. He discovered a thread of a soul energy's fragment inside the emerald slip.A contorted savage phantom shadow shot out of the emerald slip. It came clawing at Chase wit

    "My gosh! How is this happening?!" The skeletal old man panicked. His soul energy sensed that heaven and earth's vitality seemed to be attracted by something when it was around Chase, and it flowed directly into Chase.Meanwhile, the brilliant glow of the sun appeared in the air behind Chase. It burned brightly and blinded those who saw it.A massive Divine Red Phoenix appeared and opened up its wings as it flew in the air. It was ferocious and had an air of danger about it."The Divine Red Phoenix?!"The sight of it put fear in the skeletal old man as his eyes widened. "Who exactly are you?!"Chase ignored him. He had formed into a golden-red phoenix and was emanating a terrifying aura in the air."Burning Sky Technique!"The temperature in the cave suddenly hiked up several hundred degrees due to the burning golden sun. Even the cave walls and ground were melted into lava that started to flow like a river.The skeletal old man screamed in pain as his body turned red instantly

    Chase moved extremely fast. He appeared in front of the skeletal old man, who was about ten yards away, in an instant.They were fighting in close combat. Their hands and legs hit and kicked each other as protective energy flew about.Several muffled explosions were heard. It was difficult to determine the victor in this fight."You're at the end of your tethers, little bastard! You're about to die! I'm going to refine you and feed your soul to the Phantom Coffin. You'll be vanquished completely and turned into a part of my body."The skeletal old man held back his head and laughed wildly. His wounds were healing at an incredible speed.Chase's performance in this fight had angered him. He no longer cared about hiding his identity."You want to refine me? You're nothing but a ghost. Are you dreaming?" Chase sneered and suddenly lunged forward."Die!" Chase was quick as lightning as he instantly got close to the skeletal old man. He pressed his palm down on the old man's shoulder

    A strange air of authority could be felt coming from him."How did this happen?"The skeletal old man's eyes widened, and his heart beat violently. He was trembling.Chase looked just like a demon king.He took a step forward. The earth and sky tremored as cracks appeared on the ground.Chase's physique suddenly expanded exponentially. His skin was bright red, and his bones seemed to be clanging. A strong dark blood energy flooded out from him.Chase waved his arms about crazily. Explosions went off in the air. Every punch he swung was followed by the terrifying sound of an explosion.The surface of the graveyard collapsed from Chase's savage strength.Chase crushed half the skeletal old man's face with one punch, and the old man's body flew off several yards away.Meanwhile, Chase was suffering from backlash because the true energy reserves within his body had erupted.
