He fled swiftly into the distance, pushing his speed to the limit.
However, Long Wu’s speed was even faster. In the blink of an eye, she had appeared behind him.
Long Wu stretched out her right hand and pointed her fingers like a sword, sharp beyond compare, as if able to slice through anything in the world.
With a casual wave of her hand, Long Wu unleashed endless radiance that flooded heaven and earth. Even a Saint King Realm master would feel their hair stand on end when facing such divine power.
The golden-armored saint did not even have time to scream before he was completely split in two. His divine soul had just escaped from his body and before it could discern a direction, Long Wu seized it directly in her palm.
Long Wu completely sealed off the void around the golden-armored creature. There was nowhere for him to escape, neither in heaven nor on earth.
“Long Wu! How dare you! I am a saint of the Nine-Headed Lion Clan. You dare kill me? Today, if you kill me, my Nine-Headed Lion Clan will never let you off no matter where you hide, be it heaven or earth!” the golden-armored saint roared ferociously.
The Nine-Headed Lion Clan was an ancient and formidable race, famous for their tyranny in ancient times. However, having sealed themselves for too long in this era, many human races no longer knew their name, as if they had been forgotten. Only the living beings of all races still recognized the glory of the Nine-Headed Lion Clan in ancient times.
The Nine-Headed Lion’s roar instantly awakened the memories of the older generation of humans. They had read about this race in ancient books but never imagined that the Nine-Headed Lion Clan would still have surviving clansmen until this day, and they looked quite prosperous with considerable strength.
“Haha…” Long Wu sneered coldly. Her expression was extremely calm as she looked at the Nine-Headed Lion and slowly said, “Today if 1 kill you, what can your Nine-Headed Lion Clan do about it? After I kill you, the Nine-Headed Lion Clan’s vengeance, I, Long Wu, will receive it all. 1 want to see if your Nine-Headed Lion Clan really dares to make a move against me!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Long Wu sent a wisp of her divine sense into the other party’s mind, wanting to look through his memories.
However, just as she had flipped through most of the other party’s memories, gradually involving all the ancient pacts the Nine-Headed Lion had mentioned, a tremendous divine might suddenly rose from the other party’s mind, as if an ancient deity had awakened, shaking the very world. Even just a tiny bit of this divine might was enough to overturn the universe.
Bang!
The void exploded. In an instant, the Nine-Headed Lion saint’s divine soul was shattered. The powerful aftershock spread out crazily, covering a radius of hundreds of miles. Even the stars in the sky trembled.
Although not as powerful as a Saint Realm expert’s self-destruction, this kind of might could rival a full-powered attack of an ordinary Saint Realm expert. Even Long Wu, a Saint King Realm master, was injured slightly by the shockwave.
“No!” Long Wu quickly retreated two steps, her expression changing subtly. This was truly too abnormal.
She knew very well that some saints of large clans would have restrictions planted in their minds to prevent leakage of their cultivation methods. But this Ancient Pact was simply too inconceivable.
The memories about the Ancient Pact also seemed to be secretly planted with restrictions to prevent outsiders from learning of it.
“I’m afraid only someone at the Quasi-Emperor Realm could have done this. It seemed the Ancient Pact is not that simple,” Long Wu muttered to herself.
For someone at the Quasi-Emperor Realm to personally plant such a restriction, no matter how one looked at it, this whole matter was not simple.
It was likely the ancient royal clans of the Southern Region were secretly plotting something shocking! However, it seemed her True Dragon Clan had been excluded by the Southern Region’s ancient royals…
Of course, it could not be ruled out that the elders of her True Dragon Clan actually knew the whole story. The only one unaware of this matter was probably her alone.
“Just what exactly is this Ancient Pact? Judging by their target, it seems to be against the human race… But why target the human race? The humans are extremely powerful in this era. Even if the ancient royals joined forces, they may not gain any advantage against the humans… Moreover, humans have always been united…”
Long Wu was puzzled. Her master was human after all. She had to investigate everything detrimental to her master, otherwise, if he was schemed against, they would still be left in the dark.
Thinking of this, Long Wu’s eyes turned to the other Saint Realm expert. Sensing Long Wu’s gaze, the man felt as if he had fallen into an icy abyss. His face turned pale.
Once so domineering, today he suddenly realized how powerless he was against a mere Saint King Realm master. He wanted to escape but his strength was far inferior to the previous Nine-Headed Lion saint..
