"What's the situation here?"
The next day at noon, Li Xijian shattered the Shadow Space Boundary in Wang Linchi's office, revealing a headless corpse and a bored-looking Wang Linchi.
"Oh, my coworker was a member of the Shadow Covenant. He attacked me, and I killed him," Wang Linchi summarized.
Li Xijian didn't question how Wang Linchi had managed the counter-kill. He saw at a glance that the headless corpse hadn't undergone any cultivation and was only at the initial White Porcelain level.
As for how Wang Linchi had blown the man's head off, splattering gore everywhere, Li Xijian didn't press for details.
Considering Wang Linchi had managed to acquire the Soul Forging Method, obtaining a new Soul Seed wasn't unthinkable. Every year, many non-Battle-type Awakeners became Battle-type Awakeners through illegal means; it was just rare to find someone like Wang Linchi, who actively avoided using his power.
