Chapter 706: Kill!
A whistling sound filled the air as the three Mount Ironblood Nascent Soul cultivators gritted their teeth, ignored Meng Hao, and shot past him toward Wang Youcai, radiating killing intent.
They wouldn't kill him, of course. However, they would seriously wound him, especially considering that they represented the torture chamber, and their Elder Brother Chang Yi had personally given the orders. In their opinion, they clearly occupied the superior position, especially considering that they were essentially backed by the two Ironblood Patriarchs. A trifling Blood Prince, even if he did have a cultivation base exceeding their own, couldn't possibly fight back against the two Ironblood Patriarchs.
Because of this line of reasoning, their killing intent grew even more intense than before. Magical items appeared as they shot forward, and the blood-colored glow rose to the Heavens. Under the eyes of everyone in all of the mountain peaks of the sect, they shot forward.
A cold smile could be seen on the face of Chang Yi as he glared icily at Meng Hao, waiting to see how he would respond to this test.
"There is ruthlessness in my heart," murmured Meng Hao. "It's been there since I perished in the Milky Way Sea...." He lifted his right hand and casually waved a finger.
Although it appeared that the finger didn't actually point down onto anything but air, in the blink of an eye, the fastest of the three Mount Ironblood cultivators immediately began to tremble. An expression of confusion flashed across his face, and then he coughed up blood. A moment later, he literally exploded.
It was as if an enormous, invisible pair of hands had crushed him into a pulp!
The speed with which it happened was incomparable. It was so sudden that everyone who was observing was flabbergasted.
Behind Meng Hao, Wang Youcai's face fell, and his heart began to pound. "Not good," he thought. "Meng Hao is far too impulsive! What should I do?"
Anxiety welled up in his heart. He could tell that Chang Yi was just testing Meng Hao, and could never have imagined that Meng Hao would act so rashly.
Chang Yi's eyes went wide. Previously, he had never thought that the Blood Prince would attack... with lethal force. However, this twist caused joy to surge up inside of him. He couldn't help but muse that the Blood Prince was clearly far too inexperienced. Coldness gleamed in Chang Yi's eyes as he strode forward.
"Blood Prince!" he bellowed. "How dare you violate sect rules!!"
At the same time, the seven shady-looking apprentices on the second mountain peak watched on with glittering eyes, clearly interested in what was happening.
On the fourth mountain peak, the young man with the fan smiled faintly, and a strange light gleamed in his eyes.
As for the hunchbacked old man on the fifth mountain peak, his eyes flickered. Next to him, the pretty young woman stared in shock. She could never have guessed that Meng Hao would actually kill anyone.
"So, this Blood Prince turns out to be quite a vicious person," said the hunchbacked old man, sighing emotionally. "However, he is a bit reckless, and also a tad young. He's not like me, a person who has lived far, far too long."
Meng Hao completely ignored the reactions of everyone around him. He seemed to be immersed within a world of regrets.
"The ruthlessness grew stronger in the Rebirth Cave...." he sighed. He waved his finger again, and the second incoming Nascent Soul Cultivator's face fell. He suddenly stopped in place. Rumbling sounds echoed out, and then he exploded, completely dead in body and soul.
