The Ancient Godly Monarch
Chapter 68: Who is Oriole



Logan and his entourage froze after seeing Qin Wentian's speed. Unwilling to put himself in danger, Logan pointed to a skinny young man wearing a green robe and ordered, "Go face him."


The skinny young man nodded his head and released one of his Astral Souls. The Astral Soul he released was solidified from the tree-type constellation, with many vines growing from its trunk. At the same time, several vines appeared, wrapping themselves around his body as his body was enveloped by Astral Light. Clearly, this tree-type Astral Soul belonged to a category of control type that could be used to deal with speed-dependent cultivators.


"You two, go kill those fatass." Logan instructed. Qin Wentian held an outstanding position in the academy, so without a doubt, he would be under the protection of the academy's elites. If he wanted to kill Qin Wentian, he would have to extinguish the potential leak, which meant they had to kill Fan Le.


Two cultivators from Logan's side moved towards Fan Le. After witnessing this, Fan Le immediately retreated at an astonishing speed. After all, his cultivation was at level 2 of the Arterial Circulation, which was inferior to one of his opponents. Not only that, he specialized in long-distance combat. There was no way he would want to engage in a close combat.


Logan and the rest of his party surrounded Qin Wentian, not bothering to cover up their killing intent.


“You think you are very strong because you killed Murong Feng? Although his cultivation was at the 4th level of the Artery Circulation, his methods were too soft, let alone his martial heart. ”Logan coldly stated as a sharp and terrifying Qi came out from his axe-type Astral Soul.


"Do it." At Logan's order, the tree-type cultivator waved his hand, sending the vines to lock Qin Wentian in his position. Logan took a big step forward and cut down with his Astral Axe, wanting to smash Qin Wentian into pieces.


Qin Wentian stomped on the ground many times in an instant, his feet never stopping their movements. Dodging to the side, his body turned into a shadow that dodged the long axe and vines.


"Swoos!" A cold ray of sword light flashed, moving parallel to the wind user's swift and wind-like steps. At the same time, the fist of the last party member exploded beside the cry of the demonic bull, flying with great force towards Qin Wentian.


In one breath of time, Qin Wentian executed the Garuda Movement Technique to its maximum limit while continuously dodging three attacks. His movements were incredible, causing those who saw him to exhale envy. As for the fourth attack, the fist exploded with the power of the demonic bull, Qin Wentian shifted his body slightly before summoning the Astral Energy within his body, and sending out a Diamond Imprint palm strike that broke the faint shadow of the demon. the bull floated behind the fist.


The time it took for him to send out his palm strike proved to be long enough for Astral Axe and the sword light to target him again. The sense of impending danger tickled his spine, however, Qin Wentian was still very calm. It was as if he could hear every movement blowing in the wind.


In the moment before his head was crushed by that mighty axe, his body flickered like a ghost as he floated away with a retreat. The axe attack split the air next to him but the sword light actually managed to draw blood, which dripped from Qin Wentian's wound. Under the onslaught of the four members, even Qin Wentian could remain unscathed. His level of difficulty was far from his fight with Murong Feng; every moment was filled with incomparable danger!


In the exchange of the next punch, the sword actually pierced Qin Wentian's body. Choosing to sacrifice his mobility for the chance to reduce the immense pressure, he decided to make a double exchange. A white light flashed, and in the next second, the sword user thrust a dagger into his throat. The sword user released the grip on his sword and retreated quickly, muttering indistinctly as blood flowed profusely between the fingers of the hand he wrapped around his throat to stem the bleeding. However, it was too late for him.


Qin Wentian had no time to witness the death of the sword user. Pulling the sword out of his body and throwing it, he dashed away with the coldness that radiated from his eyes. The dagger was always hidden in his body, perfect for instant kill. After it was revealed, it had an element of surprise on its side, which allowed it to kill sword users in exchange for lightning-fast blows.


Logan and the others hurriedly chased after Qin Wentian, the scene of the sword user dying with both his hands covered in blood was still fresh in their minds. This was already the second member to die at the hands of Qin Wentian.


At the beginning of the battle, Qin Wentian had broken the heart of one of their members. And just a moment before, he stabbed another person through the throat.


The remaining three glared at Qin Wentian with hatred, their gazes akin to a poisonous snake.


Blood dripped from the wound on Qin Wentian's chest, dying his robe red. The previous sword attack had successfully injured Qin Wentian, despite using the Garuda Movement Technique.


"Interesting."


At this moment, the voice of a stranger sounded. Party members Qin Wentian and Logan froze, as they looked towards that voice, only to see Fan Le running in a sorry state. A trace of blood could be seen from the corner of his mouth, and his sleeves were torn apart, revealing an arrow hidden underneath. This meant that despite using hidden weapons, Fan Le was still injured.


"We were betrayed." Fan Le spat out a mouthful of blood as he arrived at Qin Wentian's side. Behind him, other than the two cultivators who had fought with Fan Le, there were two other students behind.


One of the other two individuals was a thin-looking young man with cold eyes and a long face that gave off a cruel taste. At this moment, his lips bent in an ominous smile. This person was precisely the one who said the word "Fascinating" earlier.


Seeing the other person standing beside him, Qin Wentian narrowed his eyes as he realized who that person was.


"Zero." Qin Wentian said coldly. Zero averted his gaze and exclaimed coldly, "Don't blame me, you're the one who's heartless."


"If you stay behind before, I'm afraid you've become a dead man." Qin Wentian calmly replied, "i just want you to leave here temporarily. When I get the Blood Bucket Fruit, I will give some of them to you, but to think it .... ”.


"Tell me whatever you want" Zero replied coldly.


“Why are you still wasting time with this nonsense? We protected him during our training session in the Dark Forest and even shared half of the demon core with him. Even so, he betrayed us without a word. Justjust wonderful. ”Fan Le coldly exclaimed, as Qin Wentian shook his head in surrender. Fan Le was right, there was no need to explain anything to a person with such a character.


"Hehe." The young man standing beside Zero coldly laughed. "Logan, Young Master Luo is nearby.I've already sent people to inform you of this. Do you know what to do now? "


"Luo Qianqiu." Logan's face froze as he stared at Zero with a cold look. This bastard actually went to tell Luo Qianqiu's minion.


"Franklin, I am willing to give this Blood Bucket Fruit to Young Master Luo. However, some of my brothers died trying to get fruits. Can you give one fruit to each of my surviving brothers? ”Logan asked.


"There are only so many Blood Bucket Fruits, and you want Young Master Luo to give them to you?" Franklin pointed to the Blood Bucket Tree, which Logan turned his gaze over. Instantly, when his gaze landed on the trees, his feet involuntarily shuddered, as if he was seeing something unimaginable. His face grew very unsightly.


"Franklin, there's still someone here." Logan's facial expression was very ugly to look at. In the Blood Bucket Tree, there were only a few spiritual fruits left; the rest of the fruits had already been stolen by the mysterious feast.


"What's going on? Someone stole the fruit while we were fighting !? ”


“I don't care about other variables. These Blood Buckets, are you sure you still dare to keep them? ”Franklin forcefully asked.


Logan's face became unsightly as he shouted loudly in his heart. Luo Qianqiu's henchmen were too domineering. But still, protecting her own life was now more important. After all, Luo Qianqiu was someone who was incapable of being hostile.


"I am willing to give all the results to Young Master Luo," Logan gritted his teeth as he forced those words out, causing Franklin to smile in satisfaction.


Qin Wentian and Fan Le were watching on the side. When Logan says that the fruits were stolen, confusion cannot help but shine on their faces.


"i think I should be included in the discussion, don't I?" Qin Wentian added calmly.


As his voice faded, Logan and Franklin's gaze landed on Qin Wentian. Logan quietly commented in his heart. Is this guy an idiot? Meanwhile, a cold smile appeared on Franklin's face.


"Is he also a student of the Star Emperor Academy?" For half a year, Franklin followed Luo Qianqiu as he ventured into the Dark Forest to cultivate, so he never returned to the academy during this period of time.


"Number one rank out of all the new students, Qin Wentian." Logan explained.


"So that's it." Touching his chin, Franklin asked Qin Wentian, "Since you are a new student, you should learn how to respect your senior. Are you going to relinquish your claim on the Blood Bucket Fruit or not? "


"Okay, all your fruits." Qin Wentian spread his hand. Glancing at Fan Le, the two turned around and walked away. Watching this situation happen, Logan was stunned. When did this person become so easy to push?


But at this moment, they could see the snow-white puppy climbing up the trunk of the Blood Bucket Tree and plucking the Blood Bucket Fruit with its claws. Moments after, he stuck his head out and looked at the people under the tree, blinking his eyes in confusion as if somewhat depressed upon discovery.


"Fuck, so the fruit was stolen by the beast." Logan shouted furiously.


"That's Qin Wentian's pet." Zero cried out in panic.


"Small pieces, as for the fruits left on the tree, you can have them. Make sure to enjoy your food. ”A voice drifted from afar, and after hearing the command, Little Rascal threw the Blood Bucket Fruit into his mouth and enlarged its size. With a speed that challenged logic, just a few breaths later, the rest of the Blood Bucket Fruit disappeared one by one into Little Rascal's mouth.


"Hurry and stop that little bastard!"


Franklin's face turned into something very interesting to look at as he darted towards the Blood Bucket Tree. But they are too late. By the time they arrived, the entire remaining stockpile of Blood Bucket Fruit had been eaten by Little Rascal. Turning into a shadow, Little Rascal darted away, rushing down the mountain. When Logan, Franklin, and the other members chased after him, they could see that inside Little Rascal's mouth was a bag containing previously stolen Blood Ember Fruits.


"The Evil Beast."


"Little shit."


Upon seeing this, Franklin and Logan bellowed furiously, and they frantically increased their speed. Little Rascal had deliberately slowed himself to mock them before, but now that his mission had been completed, Little Rascal raised his speed to another level as his body flickered, disappearing from sight.


Somewhere far away, Qin Wentian and Fan Le showed bright smiles on their faces and laughed out loud as they imagined the outrageous reactions of their pursuit.


This little boy, what a useful pet!
