Chapter 292: Departure

Chapter 292 - Departure

Immediately following that, Gu Zuo was enveloped by those rays of light. He was unexpectedly pulled into that black hole in the blink of an eye.

Gongyi Tianheng reacted extremely quickly. He swiftly reached out a hand, and closely pursued Gu Zuo for a few steps. But in spite of everything, he wasn’t able to grab Gu Zuo. He could only watch as that black hole became smaller and smaller. Countless hurricane-force winds inside of the black hole advanced towards the figure within it to tear him to pieces!

Even though only some of those hurricane-force winds leaked out of the black hole, quite a few people who were relatively close by and who didn’t leave in time were all swept up. In a split second, they were twisted and torn into sheets of mutilated flesh. Were it not for these people’s slow movements, they all would’ve hastily taken medicinal pills. Perhaps, the instant that these people were sucked in by the winds, they had already been turned into bloody paste.

Although it was like this, the seriously injured numbered in the dozens.

From this, one could well imagine what fate had befallen Gu Zuo who had been drawn into the black hole…

Right away, Tianheng’s eyes became bloodshot, where several wisps of blood covered the whites of his eyes. This suddenly transformed such a handsome young man into a fiendish asura. There was movement in his hand, and he immediately gripped a large saber. Without waiting for how the others were shaken and how they didn’t have enough time to react, he had already dashed out with flickering steps. He used all of his body’s strength, and brandished the saber — Slash!

This saber swiftly chopped down upon the Third Prince’s neck. Half of it was sliced open.

At first, the Third Prince was startled and infuriated. He thought the matter was properly handled, but halfway through, that pharmacist had messed everything up. However, what he didn’t anticipate even more was for Tianheng to immediately take action against himself just because that guy got mad about the pharmacist. Tianheng’s condition was frenzied and wild. It was quite terrifying.

In a split second, a hint of fear took root within the Third Prince’s heart. He clutched his neck, and hastily retreated.

Tianheng followed closely and relentlessly. Although the two could only rely on their physical bodies to fight, Tianheng’s whole body was boiling with qi emissions. Unexpectedly, it seemed that he was squeezing out his own potential to keep slashing his saber!

Because his aura was being suppressed, the Third Prince held up his head with his other hand. It already wasn’t easy to protect himself, let alone counterattacking Tianheng. And at this moment, those subordinates of his flocked over. They only cared about protecting the Third Prince and taking him away. In any case, the martial artists of the Binglong Army were about to take action against Tianheng.

No matter how fierce the others’ attacks were, Tianheng only used his physical body to resist them as he chased after the Third Prince. Momentarily, it seemed that the rest weren’t able to block him.

On those tall terraces, Prince Zhou gave another cold grunt, and ordered his subordinates to rush over. His position on the issue was to help Tianheng and to torment the Third Prince.

Young Master Xin watched with folded arms on the sidelines. His gaze flickered as he watched Tianheng…

At this moment, these four prodigies each had four bearings. They all had their own plans.

Tianheng’s eyes became increasingly bloodshot. His entire body was wrapped up in a haze of blood-red qi. Compared to the terror just then, he had become somewhat sinister and malevolent.

In the end, the people of the other two prodigies also didn’t know why they were getting involved. Moreover, under the protection of the numerous Binglong Army soldiers, the Third Prince was getting farther and farther away. Tianheng’s boiling qi emissions slowly dwindled.

Soon after, Tianheng gave the Third Prince a profound look. A trace of scarlet light flickered within his eyes &#k2014; Shortly thereafter, he turned around and departed swiftly.

Once Tianheng left, Prince Zhou waved a hand and ordered his own people to return. He watched the Third Prince’s group escape under the protection of his soldiers from far away. His complexion was unsightly: “Originally, this prince thought that Third Zhao was useless. I didn’t expect that he would be so cowardly and shameless. How could he deserve to be this prince’s opponent? It shames me to be associated with him!”

His subordinates all nodded their heads one after another: “The Third Prince’s actions just now are truly…”

It was hard to explain in only a few words.

One prodigy would know the foundations of another prodigy. Prince Zhou also possessed something similar to the jade ruler that the Third Prince utilized, which were all manufactured by the exceptional powerhouses of one’s clan, masters, or backers. It was used to escape with one’s life while on the Roads of Heaven’s Chosen — Although there wasn’t any way to completely remove the post natural disaster barrier, if someone refined a spirit weapon, there wasn’t any problem in briefly opening a passage. This was also a good thing every clan’s elders produced because they worried that the prodigies would encounter something and wouldn’t be able to flee in time while on the Roads of Heaven’s Chosen.

Merely, after this object recognized a master with a drop of blood, if the blood-recognized master aimed it at someone else, that person would be swallowed into the spatial crack and they would be twisted and crushed by the spatial storms! Basically, there wasn’t any possibility of survival…

For every item that was used, there would be one fewer. Ordinary prodigies would only have that single item. According to established customs, it wasn’t something that a person would use lightly. As for that Third Prince, he rashly used it when fighting with a prodigy whose realm was many times lower than his own. Truly, he shouldn’t have done this.

On top of that, there was a big relationship between the jade ruler’s manufacture and the Great Smoke Pagoda. By fusing the jade ruler and the Great Smoke Pagoda, one could open a departure passage that was sufficiently safe. Conversely, if one used the Great Smoke Pagoda to open the spatial crack, its might would naturally be even greater.

This was also what led to such an outcome…

Prince Zhou looked down upon such conduct.

However, although the Third Prince had luckily escaped this time, the matter of him losing against Tianheng again would soon spread. Moreover, the enmity between the Third Prince and Tianheng had more than doubled.

After going back to his lodgings, Prince Zhou didn’t bother about anything else, and simply waited till the next day — On this day, the final day of the Road of Heaven’s Chosen, he led everyone to the Great Smoke Pagoda, and climbed it.

On the top floor of the Great Smoke Pagoda, he surveyed the view outside from high above. When night fell, a small pathway opened with a loud rumble. Once someone jumped down from the pagoda, one could directly enter it.

This small pathway was precisely the exit of the Road of Heaven’s Chosen.

The Third Prince had already closed the gate and left since yesterday evening. That Young Master Xin had also disappeared at some time. Prince Zhou was going to be the last to leave. And likewise, he brought his people to depart.

At this time, there were only some people whose speeds were extremely fast who left this place with these Central Continent prodigies who staggered their departure times.

Among Prince Zhou’s troops, there was a teenager who wore purple clothes. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly looked back.

He saw a handsome young man in brocade robes gently walking over. The figure quickly transformed into a streak of shadow. It wasn’t known from where that man entered, nor where he disappeared to.

The exit to the Road of Heaven’s Chosen had now completely shut. If any martial artists still hadn’t come to the Great Smoke Pagoda within this timeframe, they could only be left behind in this Guizhong City. They wouldn’t be able to leave for three hundred years, and would only be able to produce descendants with the city’s inhabitants… No longer would they be able to advance a step further upon the path of martial arts.

On a wide official road, several carriages swayed back and forth as they travelled onward.

On both sides of the carriages were a dozen or so armored martial artists who were riding wild beasts. On their waists hung bladed weapons. Their expressions were solemn and respectful. They looked like a family’s security detail, but they also seemed like a squadron of personal soldiers. Their imposing auras were quite out of the ordinary.

And among the carriages that these martial artists surrounded, the carriage at the front was the most impressive. Although its outward appearance wasn’t that gorgeous, it had a type of subdued, ancient elegance that gave one a vague sense of nobility. In the back, there were also two smaller carriages. They were compact and exquisite, but the style was somewhat inferior. These were probably used by concubines or first-class maidservants.

While this group travelled, the caravan of carriages suddenly came to a halt.

Within the first carriage, rustling noises echoed out, and a voice spoke a few words.

It was a tender and charming female voice. It should’ve been a young servant girl: “Young master, why did you order them to stop? Could it be that this road isn’t good to travel?”

Then, there was a male voice that was comparatively honest and sincere: “Just now, I saw what appeared to be a person in the underbrush. Go take a look. If it’s not inconvenient, then save them.”

The young servant girl was somewhat unhappy: “This young master is always so kind. With the current circumstances within our household, you still want to pick up a vagrant and return home with them. Wouldn’t the people who don’t know the inside information think that this is inappropriate?”

That young master sighed and said: “The main reason for the difficulties in our household is that there isn’t anyone who can help us. When I see someone who has met with misfortune, I want to accumulate good luck for myself. Huan’er, saving a person is a happy affair. Go quickly.”

There was nothing else the young servant girl could do. She jumped out of the first carriage, and soon knocked upon the doors of the second and third carriages.

The people within these two carriages were perceptive and clever. Having heard the movements up front, they had prepared to disembark at an earlier time. In total, there were two graceful girls and two servant women.

One would only see that young servant girl pointing into the underbrush behind the carriages and speaking a few sentences in a delicate voice. These two girls faintly shook their heads in exasperation, and ordered those servant women to go with them to the side of the underbrush.

Sure enough, a person was lying on their stomach in there. Apparently, this person’s height wasn’t tall and their waist was thin. This wasn’t an adult. A servant woman turned the person over, and they saw that this was a teenager with delicate features. Right now, both eyes were tightly shut, and his complexion was pale. It looked like he had suffered injuries.

Seeing that this teenager’s breathing was feeble, he was still alive. They thought that if this person was left lying on the ground, he wouldn’t live for much longer. The few girls didn’t say anything else, and allowed a servant woman to carry the person back to the second carriage.

The young servant girl was waiting here. After figuring out the situation, she returned to the first carriage, and reported to her household’s young master. She left the remaining couple of people, and found a place for that injured teenager in the back.

That teenager was unconscious the entire time. For half a day, not a grain of rice could be eaten and not a drop of water could be drunk. However, despite his loss of consciousness, he was very quiet. He never talked in his sleep. Naturally, it was even more impossible to let others know about his origins.

It wasn’t until night fell that there was a change in his breathing. After that, he suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.

The girl who was keeping watch on the side was pleased. She immediately opened her mouth: “You’re awake?”

That teenager’s figure trembled somewhat. He turned his head, and his face was filled with distrust: “You are…”

T/N: This is the final chapter for this volume. Like always, I’ll be taking a week off to rest and edit previous chapters. The next volume is “All-Star Prodigy” and it’s ninety-nine chapters long.

And no, Gu Zuo doesn’t have amnesia. The author will give a more detailed explanation in the next chapter about that.
