Chapter 1671, You’re An Origin King?

Seeing Qian Tong’s silence, Xie Chen thought he had been intimidated, so he became even more arrogant and savagely spat, “Qian Tong, a wise man will submit to the circumstances. Corpse Spirit Religion has four Origin Kings, and domination of Shadowed Star is just around the corner. Do not be stubborn, as long as you are willing to submit, this Hall Master can put in a few good words to you. With your cultivation, the treatment you’ll receive won’t be any worse than this Hall Master.”

Qian Tong suddenly sighed, and in a sullen tone steeped with coldness, he stared at Xie Chen and faintly said, “You said that there are four Origin Kings in this Corpse Spirit Religion?”

“Indeed!” Xie Chen grinned meaningfully and nodded.

“Do you even know what an Origin King is?”

“The Origin King Realm is…” Xie Chen froze for a moment, a trace of confusion flashing across his face. No Origin King had been seen on Shadowed Star for over ten thousand years, so the world only knew it was a realm higher than the Origin Returning Realm. Xie Chen wanted to speak, but he truly couldn’t say anything.

After all, he had never seen it either.

Becoming somewhat angry out of shame, he snapped back, “Do you know?”

Qian Tong stared at him indifferently, and without saying a word, he stretched out his hand towards Xie Chen and clenched his fist.

Xie Chen instinctively stepped back and pushed his Saint Qi to protect himself, thinking that some kind of attack was about to hit him, but even after waiting for a moment, nothing happened; in fact, he was unable to even notice any Saint Qi movement from Qian Tong.

“Qian Tong, you dare play tricks with this Hall Master?” Xie Chen was furious, his face going from blue to red, “I will have you dead! Since you and I both came from Shadow Moon Hall, I wanted to give you a chance, but since you don’t put this Hall Master in your eyes, no one can save you now! Kill him!”

As he barked this last sentence, he turned to his subordinates.

When Yang Kai rescued Wei Gu Chang just now, he immediately discovered that these people belonged to Shadow Moon Hall, so he had not immediately killed them as he was unaware of the current situation and simply forced them back from Wei Gu Chang.

These people did not have any serious injuries and had managed to stabilize themselves by now.

Hearing Xie Chen’s orders, however, the group of five Origin Realm cultivators all showed hesitation on their faces.

Even if Xie Chen did not fear Qian Tong, did they not? Although their strength had grown noticeably since joining the Corpse Spirit Religion, Qian Tong’s past majesty was still deeply rooted in their psyche, so they were undoubtedly quite reluctant to seek trouble with him now.

“Hm? Hall Master! You… you…” Suddenly, a middle-aged man seemed to have discovered something shocking and pointed at Xie Chen in horror while screaming.

The others all looked in the direction he was pointing then and could not help exclaiming. As horror filled their faces, all of them involuntarily retreated from Xie Chen, like they were avoiding a plague.

“What’s wrong?” Xie Chen was not a fool and realized something was wrong, quickly glancing down, only to have his complexion change drastically as he called out in shock, “What’s happening!?”

He suddenly noticed that the ends of his arms and legs were being slowly dissolved by some kind of energy which, while invisible to the naked eye, gave off now discernable fluctuations.
