Chapter 360 - Chapter 360

This scene was incomparably bloody and cruel, greatly shocking Zhao Wuji's mind.

His eyes instantly turned red. While running, his body suddenly expanded as he roared and completed Martial Soul Possession.

"Beast, I'll kill you!" Zhao Wuji's eyes were about to split as he roared and charged at the Qiongqi.

The Grandmaster had just been bitten through the head by a fierce spirit beast right in front of him and died on the spot. How could he remain calm?

Flanders had told him to come out and watch over the Grandmaster, yet he had been one step too late and watched with his own eyes as the Grandmaster's head was separated from his body.

The person he respected the most was not Flanders, but the Grandmaster.

Now that he had watched the Grandmaster die before his eyes, how could he not feel pain?

In this instant, he lost his calm.

Without judging the spirit beast's strength, he charged straight at it.

He wanted to kill this spirit beast and snatch back the Grandmaster's corpse.

Otherwise, even the corpse might not remain.

The Qiongqi opened its huge mouth, wanting to swallow the Grandmaster's remaining body.

Zhao Wuji grew even more anxious. The fourth spirit ring on his body lit up as the Positioning Tracking spirit ability activated.

"Beast, you dare!"

The Qiongqi's mouth, which had been about to bite down, stopped and indeed did not bite.

It was not afraid of Zhao Wuji, but had received Jiang Chen's voice transmission.

It smacked its lips, a large amount of saliva flowing down. It looked at the Grandmaster's corpse, then at Zhao Wuji, who was rapidly approaching with the power of the spirit ability, and finally chose to leave.

As Zhao Wuji closed in, Gravity Enhancement, Gravity Compression, and other skills had already been released.

These were his two control skills. A life for a life, this damned spirit beast would not be allowed to leave.

Sensing the compressing force coming from all directions, the Qiongqi's ferocious mouth split open, revealing a human-like mocking expression.

It pushed off with its four limbs and tyrannically broke through Zhao Wuji's gravity blockade.

Zhao Wuji only blinked once, and that hateful spirit beast had already charged more than a hundred meters away, leaving the range of his Positioning Tracking spirit ability.

"Damned beast, if you have the guts, don't run!" Zhao Wuji chased madly with red eyes.

But very quickly, he lost the Qiongqi's traces.

His heart jumped in alarm, and he hurriedly returned.

If other spirit beasts appeared and ate the Grandmaster's remains…

He did not dare continue thinking about it.

Zhao Wuji returned rapidly. Only when he saw that the Grandmaster's headless corpse was unharmed did he let out a breath of relief.

But his heart immediately sank to the bottom, his mood incomparably oppressive and heavy.

The Grandmaster was dead!

He had been bitten through the head by a spirit beast right in front of him, dying without a complete body!

Zhao Wuji did not dare imagine what Flanders and Liu Erlong's reactions would be when they saw the Grandmaster's remains.

Flanders would be fine, but he feared Liu Erlong would not be able to bear it and would want to seek death.

"But Flanders and Liu Erlong… are already like that. The situation shouldn't be that bad, right?" Zhao Wuji thought sorrowfully.

He suddenly felt that the Grandmaster's entire life had been incomparably tragic.

Born with weak spirit power, looked down upon for a lifetime.

In recent years he had finally gained a bit of a reputation because of teaching, yet the person he loved and his own elder brother…

After leaving in sorrow, he had actually had his head eaten by a spirit beast, dying without a complete body.

By this time the blood inside the Grandmaster's body had already drained dry, soaking the earth completely red.

His body still retained some warmth.

Zhao Wuji thought for a moment, took out a piece of white cloth, wrapped the Grandmaster's incomplete remains, and then put them into the soul tool space.

Being able to put them into a soul tool meant this person had already become a corpse.

Zhao Wuji sighed once, his footsteps heavy as he returned in the direction of Heaven Dou City, his speed much faster than when he had come.

Inside the forest, Jiang Chen walked out.

The Qiongqi had already been retracted by him into the system.

Looking at the large pool of blood on the ground, he felt some emotion.

The Grandmaster was finally dead.

This character who held an important position in the original plot was finally dead.

The plot up to here had once again undergone a huge change and had already deviated from the original trajectory.

As for exposing the Qiongqi, he was not particularly worried.

Zhao Wuji might not necessarily have another chance to see the Qiongqi in the future.

At worst, he would find an opportunity later to kill Zhao Wuji.

"Sigh, time to go back. I hope Teacher won't be too sad."

Jiang Chen sighed once, left Sunset Forest, and began returning to Spirit City.

He had already been out for half a year. It was time to go back.

After returning and bitterly cultivating for another half year, he should be able to break through to rank eighty-nine or ninety. At that time he would go challenge Tang Chen and complete the Asura God's second trial.

The Asura God had once vaguely hinted to him that it would be best to challenge at rank ninety. That way, the benefits after completing the second trial would be greater.

He had already walked almost all of the Douluo Continent.

After completing the second trial and breaking through to Titled Douluo, he would diligently cultivate spirit power, strive to reach rank ninety-nine early, and then accept the final inheritance.

…

Half an hour later, inside Shrek Academy.

Zhao Wuji walked into the courtyard where the Grandmaster and Liu Erlong lived with an ashen face.

His heart was extremely uneasy. He truly did not know how to open his mouth and speak this bad news.

Flanders was still standing guard at the doorway. When he saw Zhao Wuji return, he immediately showed joy.

"Wuji, where is Xiaogang?"

Hearing Flanders's voice, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Liu Erlong anxiously walked out.

Her body had already recovered a great deal.

When she saw that Zhao Wuji was alone, she could not help but show a disappointed expression.

Zhao Wuji lowered his head, not daring to look into Flanders and Liu Erlong's eyes.

"Where is Xiaogang? Why is there blood on your hands?" Flanders frowned and said, already having a bad premonition in his heart.

Liu Erlong saw the bloodstains on Zhao Wuji's hands, then saw Zhao Wuji's evasive gaze, and her heart thudded. She instantly became panicked.

She ran forward a few steps, held Zhao Wuji's shoulders, and asked: "Where is Xiaogang?"

Flanders also walked forward.

Earlier he had been worried the Grandmaster would do something foolish, so he had told Zhao Wuji to chase after him.

Could it be that he had really done something foolish? Flanders's heart also became panicked.

Zhao Wuji pushed Liu Erlong away, took a deep breath, and said in a heavy tone: "Prepare yourselves mentally. I was one step too late just now. The Grandmaster, he already…"

"Already what…" Liu Erlong's eyes were red, her voice sharp, already close to losing her reason.

In the end Zhao Wuji still did not dare to say it.

He silently took out the incomplete remains wrapped in white cloth from the soul tool.

The instant this corpse appeared, Liu Erlong's vision went black, and she almost fainted.

Flanders hurriedly supported her.

His expression had also greatly changed, and his breathing was slightly rapid.

"Wuji, this is…"

"This is the Grandmaster." Zhao Wuji turned his face away, unable to bear watching the next scene.

"No, this is impossible!" Liu Erlong pushed Flanders away with one hand and frantically threw herself forward.

She forcefully pulled open the white cloth and saw the headless corpse.

Her body went soft as she sat on the ground, tears surging forth.

"No, this is impossible. How could Xiaogang be like this?" Liu Erlong muttered.

Although the corpse no longer had a head, the clothes the Grandmaster was wearing had been made by her own hands. How could she not recognize them?

Moreover, she was very familiar with the Grandmaster's body. After slightly comparing a few characteristics, she confirmed it.

Only… she could not accept this heavy blow.

As she cried, Liu Erlong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her eyes rolled up, and she fainted.

Flanders hurriedly carried her back onto the bed, then rushed out again in a hurry.

His footsteps staggered, and he nearly fell.

"Wuji, tell me, how did Xiaogang become like this?"

Flanders forcefully grabbed Zhao Wuji and roared in a low voice like a wild beast.

"The Grandmaster, he ran into Sunset Forest and was… by a spirit beast…"

Flanders suddenly collapsed onto the ground. Tears flowed down as he stroked the Grandmaster's remains, his voice trembling:

"Xiaogang, Big Brother has failed you."

"Flanders, restrain your grief. From now on you must watch Erlong carefully and not let anything happen to her.

"Leave the Grandmaster's funeral arrangements to me.

"Also, when Xiaosan returns he will definitely go crazy. You have to think of how to explain."

Zhao Wuji's degree of sorrow was a bit lighter, so he could still calmly make arrangements.

Flanders nodded. "Xiaogang is already like this. Erlong absolutely cannot have anything happen to her."
