The Attack Of The Wastrel Chapter 429

Looking deep into his blood-shot eyes, Gu Lingzhi said, “Words can be thrown around but the slave stamp cannot be faked.”

By the side, Ye Wu'er snorted, “Becoming the family slave of Pan Luo is the dumbest decision ever made by the Pan Family's ancestors.”

A teenage young man from the Spirit Tribe added on, “Believing Pan Luo, that sn.o.b, was also the stupidest thing my ancestor did!”

Gu Lingzhi tilted her head down awkwardly and did not say anything. It was the Spirit Tribe Leader that caused the Spirit Tribe situation today. The ancestors of the Spirit Tribe were too trusting of their leader's insight and that was the reason they got tricked.

Looking at the people around him, Hunting Cat fell into an internal never-ending battle.

In the time that he was in the Inheritance s.p.a.ce, every day, he saw youths from the Spirit Tribe as well as friends of Gu Lingzhi that ascended with her train extremely hard. Every day, the thing he heard the most was curses towards Pan Luo.

If it were just the Spirit Tribe members, he could just brush it off as their spiteful words. But what about Ye Wu'er?

The imprint on her soul was extremely familiar. His father had a similar imprint.

It was just that his father's one had been imprinted when he became a True G.o.d and committed to being Pan Luo's servant. The imprint had no effect on further generations.

In the past, having been following Pan Luo his entire life, Hunting Cat had also wished that one day, he would have an imprint like that. However, now, he was not sure.

As a servant, one could not do anything to tarnish the name or harm one's master. Ye Wu'er could have done what Pan Yue did and chosen to resist in other ways without activating the servant's imprint. But she could not insult her master. However, Ye Wu'er had said so many bad things about Pan Luo, yet her servant's mark was not activated. The only reason for this was that what she said was true.

But if this was the truth, then what should he do?

The role model that he had been looking up to for years had suddenly turned into the kind of person he hated the most. What was he to do?

Gu Lingzhi was calm as she looked at the apparent struggle on Hunting Cat's face. She gave a look to the few intelligent children that she had specially left in the Inheritance s.p.a.ce. The Spirit Tribe children started to cry out.

“Our ancestors were so pitiful. Not only were they betrayed, our entire clan was almost wiped out. What's more was that they permanently prevented our tribe from training properly. We had so many aunts and uncles that were so talented but they could only watch helplessly as their lives trickled away. It was not easy for us to finally ascend into the Realm of the G.o.ds and yet we were being chased down like criminals.”

“I heard that my grandfather, my grandfather's grandfather and my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather all died because they reached their end of their lifespan as they could not ascend into the Realm of the G.o.ds. It is all because of the limit that the Devil King Pan placed on the Tianyuan Continent. If they had sufficient spiritual energy, they wouldn't have pa.s.sed away at their prime.”

“My grandfather's grandfather suffered the same fate. I heard they were even more pitiful. They were trapped in the monstrous Lost Lands and could not even train. They were almost eaten up by a bunch of disgusting insects.”

“Yes yes, I heard of that too. Why are our grandfathers so pitiful…”

The group of children spoke one after the other as if they were comparing who was worse off. They told all the stories that they heard from their elders. Hunting Cat looked more and more unhappy as he heard all these.

“Luckily we have our Little Chancellor. If not for her Inheritance s.p.a.ce, we would still be trapped in the Lost Lands, calculating each and every bit of spiritual energy we use.” Eventually, an older child summarised. His clear eyes looked pointedly at Hunting Cat.

“It was so difficult for us to escape the huge prison that was the Tianyuan Continent and we didn't even have time to breathe in the air in the Realm of the G.o.ds before we were placed on the wanted list. What did we do wrong?”

You didn't do anything wrong, we are the ones that are at fault!

Hunting Cat was embarra.s.sed and did not know how to reply. He used to respect Pan Luo so much and now all he felt was disdain. It wasn't enough that he lied and attempted to exterminate the Spirit Tribe. After that, he still distorted the truth and chased after his teacher's descendants. How could he do something so horrible?

Seeing that the moment was about to end, she slid next to Hunting Cat and said indifferently, “I have already heard from Xinran with regard to what happened between the two of you. Although you had intended to sell Xinran to the Feixing Pavilion, you still saved her from people that were cruel. I will call it even since I have kept you for so long. I will release you now.”

Hunting Cat's mouth gaped open as he thought he had heard wrong.

Was Gu Lingzhi going to set him free?

Previously, he had almost sold Qin Xinran to the Feixing Pavilion and after that, he had followed them and tried to take action once again. Gu Lingzhi was going to let him go just after keeping him for a while?

Gu Lingzhi chuckled, “My Spirit Tribe members are not fond of killing.”

At this, Hunting Cat felt ashamed once again.

In the past, Pan Luo had betrayed the Spirit Tribe Leader at that time and almost caused the Spirit Tribe to be wiped out. Not wanting to have a bad image, he then announced after the war that the people of the Spirit Tribe were cold-hearted murderers. Therefore, in order for the Realm of the G.o.ds to be peaceful, he and the other higher beings had no choice but to deal with the Spirit Tribe.

Many of those that were not involved in dealing with the Spirit Tribe members were then easily brainwashed. This was also why the wanted notice that Pan Luo issued had caused such a big response. After all, the notice stated that the majority of the Ascension Members might be the 'evil' descendants of the Spirit Tribe. Who wouldn't want to do something like this where you could earn money and help get rid of evil?

Seeing the remorse become even more intense after what she said, Gu Lingzhi knew that she had made the right move to send him into the Inheritance s.p.a.ce.

Laughing lightly internally, her expression did not change as she pressed onto Hunting Cat's shoulder. With just her will, they had reappeared in the Thousand Mountains Range.

Knowing that Gu Lingzhi would always reappear here after she came out of the Inheritance s.p.a.ce, Rong Yuan had already cleared the area for Demon Plants. He even set up a place to rest. It had several tea equipment and stools. A group was enjoying piping hot tea and chit-chatting.

After seeing such a relaxing scene after leaving the Inheritance s.p.a.ce, Hunting Cat had thought that Gu Lingzhi had brought him to a place where the Ascension Members gathered. In the next second, his pupils shrunk.

Something was not right, this was the Thousand Mountains Range!

As a veteran hunter, Hunting Cat had come across several wanted criminals that had hid in the Thousand Mountains range as the last resort. He was still more or less familiar with this environment. Seeing the group of people enjoy themselves, the guilt in Hunting Cat became stronger.

The Ascension Members must have been chased to their wits end and had no choice but to choose to live in the Thousand Mountains Range…

Two hours later, Hunting Cat's guilt turned to surprise as he saw the way they fought.

Didn't the Demon Plants seal their spiritual energy? Why did it seem like there was no effect on this group of people? Why were their bodies covered in different colours? Why did everyone in this group have double strengths?

Everyone knew that training one's physical body was extremely painful and expensive. There were very little people that specially went to train their physical body after they could use their spiritual energy.

Not even mentioning how tough it was to train the physical body, even just the medicinal fluid needed to strengthen one's physical body was not easily affordable by anyone. Even he himself had strengthened his body to a Martial Lord equivalent before giving up. How did this group of people before him do it?

Putting aside the few that had a Glaze colour, the physical body of the Amethyst Warriors could at least withstand the attack of a Martial Sage right? Didn't they say that the resources in the Tianyuan Continent were extremely limited compared to the Realm of the G.o.ds? How were they able to train Martial Artists with strong physiques as well? All these Ascension members from the Tianyuan Continent all had double strengths!

“How…did they do it?” After staring for quite a while, Hunting Cat could not help but ask Gu Lingzhi.

“Are you asking about their skin colours?” Gu Lingzhi laughed lightly, “This is due to their physical body techniques. Using themselves as the furnace, the essence permeates their entire body. Once they reach a certain standard, their exterior skin color will start to change. In the Lost Lands, there was no spiritual energy. If they wanted to live, they could only go a different route. Training the physical body started there. It then spread to the entire continent and became a compulsory skill in the cultivation journey.”

Hunting Cat immediately knew this was another of what Pan Luo caused. Previously, in the Inheritance s.p.a.ce, he had known of the existence of the Lost Lands but did not know how they managed to train their bodies in such a harsh environment. Although it was not as powerful as training one's cultivation, it was extremely relevant when it came to dealing with the Demon Plants on Thousand Mountains Range.

“Wow, they are really impressive to create this technique of training their physical body internally!” Hunting Cat sighed, admiration was written all over his face.

The Demon Plants that were treated like venomous snakes and beasts by the people in the Realm of the G.o.ds were simply treated like normal demon beasts to this group of people. So what if their spiritual energy was restricted? They could rely on their physical strength!

There was one particularly small silhouette that was dealing with a Tree Demon that was ten times bigger than herself. Yet, she did not seem to budge. Her explosive energy was incredible. Her small fist seemed to carry strength ten thousand times larger than itself as it crashed into the Tree Demon. In a second, the Tree Demon seemed to tremble as numerous branches danced and stretched towards Qin Xinran.

Facing the dancing branches, Qin Xinran did not show any signs of fear. Instead, her eyes shone with excitement. Turning around, she did something that caused Hunting Cat's jaw to almost reach the ground.

As the Tree Demon reached her, Qin Xinran merely squatted, her two arms circling the tree branches. With a single sudden tug, the tree that stood several tens of meters tall was pulled out by Qin Xinran. The roots that were buried deep down were also not spared as they were snapped by Qin Xinran's action. Having taken down the Tree Demon, she treated it like a hammer and swung it around. The surrounding areas turned into a mess.

Hunting Cat was slightly fl.u.s.tered as he saw this. He had always thought of Qin Xinran as a cute and obedient woman. Who knew that she would turn out like this when she started fighting?

Gu Lingzhi looked at him with sympathy. Qin Xinran's appearance was always deceptive. He was not the only one to be deceived and would not be the last one to be shocked by the difference in Qin Xinran's appearance and when she fought.
