Chapter 1463: Chess Piece

Translator: Legge

Yan Beichen was stunned as well.

Even he had not expected that his slash could kill Heavenly Secrets!

The Hatred Fiend Saber tore through Heavenly Secrets’s consciousness and the hatred fiend qi on the saber had already surged in. Before long, Heavenly Secrets’s Essence Spirit would be devoured by the hatred fiend qi!

‘How could this be?’

Heavenly Secrets’s face was covered in blood as his eyes widened in shock and anger. He muttered repeatedly, “How could this be?”

“Sigh,”

The storyteller sighed deeply with a look of sadness and disappointment in his eyes.

“Master, how could this be? H-How did I lose?”

Heavenly Secrets turned slightly and looked at the storyteller in disbelief.

“Heavenly Secrets, if you hadn’t used the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra for this battle, it would mean that you still had a conscience. You lost the moment you released that fiend technique,”

The storyteller sighed once more with a rueful expression. “This time round, you’ve lost completely and utterly!”

“This time round?”

Heavenly Secrets asked with widened eyes, as though he had thought of something!

Su Zimo frowned slightly in deep thought as well.

Right then, the storyteller added, “Someone came and refined the bloodline of this place in advance.”

“Mmm?”

Su Zimo was shocked.

Instantly, he was enlightened!

Monk Daming!

Earlier on, Monk Daming was here!

However, nobody noticed him at all when the cultivators fought in front of Enigma Palace.

Monk Daming secretly absorbed all the bloodlines that were scattered here. That was the reason why Heavenly Secrets was stunned the moment he released the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra!

That was because all the bloodlines here had been refined—there was no reaction when he released the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra!

Heavenly Secrets’s blood qi was exhausted to begin with. Coupled with the unforeseen event, he was slightly slower and his head was sliced by Yan Beichen!

The storyteller had long known about this. Therefore, he knew the outcome the moment Heavenly Secrets used the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra.

The fact that the storyteller did not capture Monk Daming meant that the latter had already left silently before the storyteller descended.

Nobody discovered him throughout the entire process!

If the storyteller had not pointed it out, even Su Zimo would not have noticed it!

Suddenly…

Su Zimo thought of something.

Back on Six Stars Mountain, Monk Daming once told him that Enigma Palace might be able to dispel his Killing Badge.

Su Zimo was wary towards Monk Daming.

When Monk Daming said that, Su Zimo had this feeling that Monk Daming had another motive.

Later on, Monk Daming said that Yan Beichen wanted to come to Enigma Palace to take revenge on Heavenly Secrets. Without much thought, Su Zimo headed straight for Enigma Palace.

To think that in the end, he would still become a chess piece of Monk Daming!

Most importantly, even if Su Zimo knew that Monk Daming was making use of him, he had to come to Enigma Palace!

Be it for Lin Xuanji or Yan Beichen, he had to make the trip to Enigma Palace.

However, once he arrived at Enigma Palace, he would be made use of by Monk Daming!

Such methods were truly many times more brilliant than Heavenly Secrets!

However, Su Zimo was still puzzled.

If Monk Daming merely wanted to refine bloodlines, was there a need to take the risk to refine it at Enigma Palace?

A Mahayana Patriarch was alarmed this time round!

There was also the storyteller who was highly likely an Emperor. Once Monk Daming’s tracks were exposed, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed.

Furthermore, there were not many cultivators who truly died in this battle. Most of them were merely severely injured. As such, there were not many bloodlines.

Monk Daming was so cautious.

Could he have set up such a trap just to refine that bit of bloodline?

“It’s him!”

Right then, Heavenly Secrets suddenly roared in a hysterical manner.

Blood was still flowing down Heavenly Secrets’s face. When he heard that, his features were contorted with a menacing expression that was extremely terrifying!

Su Zimo sighed internally as he looked at Heavenly Secrets.

As the disciple of the storyteller, Heavenly Secrets planned everything and devised strategies almost flawlessly.

Unfortunately, by some freak accident, Su Zimo and the others released Monk Daming in this generation.

In the battle of Heaven and Earth Valley, Heavenly Secrets paved the path for Monk Daming and the latter benefited immensely.

This time round, Heavenly Secrets was defeated once more.

He lost his life in this defeat!

“Come out!”

Heavenly Secrets surveyed his surroundings and roared, completely losing his mind. “Come out! I want to see who you are!”

At that moment, Heavenly Secrets looked a little pitiful and tragic.

He had already lost before Monk Daming even appeared.

He lost twice.

He had lost completely and tragically.

Most importantly, right from the beginning, Heavenly Secrets did not know who he had lost to.

In fact, he did not even know if the person who schemed against him twice in a row was a man or woman, what sect or faction he or she was from or what he or she looked like.

For someone who thought that he was extremely smart and was in control of everything, how much of a blow was that?

“He left a long time ago,”

The storyteller shook his head and sighed in disappointment.

“Left, left!”

Heavenly Secrets grinned and fresh blood continued flowing down his cheeks. He murmured twice and suddenly laughed in a deranged manner with a tragic expression.

“Fufu, hahahaha!”

Heavenly Secrets’s gaze landed on Su Zimo and the others as he smiled sinisterly. “Chess pieces! You’re all chess pieces! Even though he’s so powerful, he’s nothing but a chess piece for someone else as well!”

“Him! You! All of you!”

He pointed at Su Zimo, Yan Beichen and even the storyteller and grinned. “None of you can escape! Your fates have long been decided! Hahaha!”

Pfft!

Yan Beichen could not listen to it any longer. After resting for a while, he recovered some strength and slashed once more, splitting Heavenly Secrets’s head into two!

Heavenly Secrets’s laughter stopped abruptly.

His Essence Spirit was also shattered by the Hatred Fiend Saber and was destroyed on the spot!

Thump!

Heavenly Secrets’s corpse fell heavily in a pool of blood.

However, his laughter seemed to echo in everyone’s ears for a long time without dissipating; it was unsettling and sent shivers down their spines!

The storyteller closed his eyes, seemingly unable to bear it.

No matter what, Heavenly Secrets was his disciple after all. He was filled with guilt and self-blame for the state the latter was in today.

Lin Xuanji no longer had his usual cheeky attitude and had a grim expression.

He could not help but recall the scenes when he was young and often pestered Heavenly Secrets to play with him.

At that time, everything was carefree and warm.

No matter what they played, Heavenly Secrets could beat him with ease.

Even in terms of cultivation realm, Heavenly Secrets was far superior to him and had entered the Conjoint Body realm long ago!

The storyteller had a total of four disciples and Heavenly Secrets was the most outstanding no matter which aspect he compared them from.

To think that he would die in front of Enigma Palace today.

“Pianran, did you see that?”

The indignance in Yan Beichen’s heart was instantly relieved after Heavenly Secrets was killed. He knelt down and looked up into the skies, saying in a daze, “I’ve killed all the enemies who murdered you! I didn’t let any of them off!”

“Pianran, don’t worry. I’ll accompany you very soon, very soon…”

After saying that, Yan Beichen could no longer hold on and fell to the ground with a thud, unconscious.

He was already exhausted and covered in injuries. The reason why he could last till now was all because of Heavenly Secrets.

Now that Heavenly Secrets was executed, he could not hold on either and fainted..
