Chapter 707: Blood Wanted List



The battle had utterly exhausted him, and he sorely needed to meditate and recover. More importantly, he wanted to use this opportunity to try and study and unravel the secrets of his Origin Aeth Artery!

While Lin was in closed-door cultivation, a great commotion erupted in the world outside.

When Top General Zhangsun Lie personally set off from the camp with a battleship, it had drawn much attention. Everyone was speculating about who could have made Zhangsun Lie personally take action.

Upon the battleship’s return, Lin Xun instantly became the focus of the entire camp.

Unfortunately, he had rushed into closed-door cultivation the moment he returned, leaving the cultivators in the camp with no way to find out what had happened.

However, when they saw full sack after sack being transported out of the battleship, the entire camp nearly exploded with excitement.

The cultivators in the camp were dumbstruck when they discovered that all of this military credit was singlehandedly earned by Lin Xun.

A Heaven Ascension youngster had killed so many enemies in Blood Kill Battlefield?

Someone could not help but curse out loud, “F*ck, most of these are Great Magi level military credit, and there’s even Enlightened Spirit level military credit! My goodness, were they all killed by him?”

The other cultivators looked at each other in shock and disbelief.

Great Magi!

It was an existence comparable to Heaven Ascension experts. Most empire cultivators would have trouble dealing with such an enemy.

That was why it was all the more astonishing that more than half of the military credit in the sacks were parts from Great Magis who had been killed.

Enlightened Spirit experts were even more incredible and were considered true powerhouses among the Brute Tribes! Usually, the empire’s top Cyclic Derivation experts would have to be dispatched to slay such existences.

And yet, at least five of such Enlightened Spirit experts had been killed and turned into Lin Xun’s military credit!

It was unbelievable, to say the least.

Even the veteran soldiers who had fought in Kill Blood Battlefield for many years could not remain calm. Such a thing had almost never happened before.

Hu Tong, A\'bi, and the others were also in the crowd and naturally witnessed everything.

They breathed sighs of relief and relaxed upon knowing that Lin Xun had been rescued.

They already realized that Lin Xun’s identity was special. Why else would Top General Zhangsun have so anxiously rushed to save him?

If Lin Xun died, they definitely won’t be let off!

Fortunately, Lin Xun survived.

However, the sight of sacks filled with military credit being transported out of the battleship utterly shocked Hu Tong and others.

Previously, many of them had viewed Lin Xun as a pampered, ignorant, and incompetent leech who was only greedy for military credit. They had felt nothing but disgust and disdain toward him.

Who could have imagined that they would ultimately be saved by this ‘leech?’

In addition, the military credit he had earned by himself was more than enough to shame any Cyclic Derivation expert in the 7th army camp!

“We only realized his greatness when it was too late.” Hu Tong sighed deeply.

“What? There’s also the remains of a Half-Step King?”

Some empire cultivators who had participated in the mission exited the battleship and dropped a bomb on everyone, causing another uproar as everyone’s eyes nearly dropped from their sockets.

Someone skeptically said, “It can’t be. He’s a Heaven Ascension youngster. How could he have killed an expert that is an entire greater cultivation stage higher? That’s more ludicrous than those legendary tales!”

“Yeah, could it have been Top General Zhangsun Lei who killed the Half-Step King?”

Someone else tried to make sense of things

The cultivators who had returned from the operation merely displayed disdainful expressions. They could not be bothered to explain.

To be frank, they were still in a dazed state and could not fathom how Lin Xun had achieved such a feat. It was just too shocking and unbelievable.

The only thing they were completely certain of, was that a Half-Step King had died in the battle of Tiger Canyon and his bloody remains had been collected.

……

On this day, the 7th army camp was abuzz with excitement until deep in the night. Everyone, both the empire cultivator army and the unaffiliated cultivator forces, was talking about a single person― Lin Xun!

The youngster, who had arrived at the 7th army camp yesterday night, had leaped to fame in a single day through his bloody battle accomplishments.

In fact, numerous cultivators had tried to pay a visit to Lin Xun’s quarters that same day. Unfortunately, it was already heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to approach.

This was naturally Lu Wenting’s handiwork. He did not wish for anything to happen to Lin Xun again and immediately ordered a squad of elites to guard his quarters upon returning.

It was a special treatment that only Lin Xun could enjoy in the 7th army camp.

……

Lin Xun was in closed-door cultivation and was naturally unaware of everything that was happening in the outside world.

Crack crack!

In his silent room, the only noise that would occasionally be heard was the sound of high-grade aeth crystals shattering.

Three days soon passed.

“General, Lin Xun’s military contribution from the Tiger Canyon battle has been calculated.”

Lu Wenting had an odd look on his face.

Zhangsun Lei raised his head from his files and asked, “What’s the total?”

Lu Wenting swallowed with some difficulty, took a deep breath, and said, “A first-tier military credit and seventy-two second-tier military credits.”

Zhangsun Lei’s pupils shrank. He slammed the table and cursed, “Nonsense! First-tier military credit? Did you give some ‘special attention’ to him?”

The so-called ‘special attention’ referred to showing favoritism and bending the rules. Lu Wenting naturally knew this and hurriedly said, “General, Lord Blood Kill King instructed to treat him like everyone else. How could I possibly dare to misreport his military credit?”

After a pause, he continued, “The first-tier military credit comes from Young Master Lin’s kill of a Half-Step King expert!”

“Has it been confirmed that he was the killer?”

Zhangsun Lei raised an eyebrow. He had also heard of this matter but was skeptical that Lin Xun had done it.

After all, even a Life Death Stage King like him had never heard of any Heaven Ascension cultivator who had managed to kill a Half-Step King.

Such a feat had never been accomplished before in the empire’s several-thousand-year-long history. It was simply unprecedented!

“We’ve confirmed it. Our scouts have confirmed from the Brute side that the dead Half-Step King is called Man Jiu and was one of the top older-generation experts of the Darkness Brute Tribe who has been serving the Darkness Tribe royal clan descendent, Ying Qiao.”

Lu Wenting hurriedly explained, “According to the information we gathered from the Brute side, Man Jiu died at Young Master Lin’s hands, moreover…”

At this point, he became somewhat hesitant.

“Moreover what?” Zhangsun Lei frowned in dissatisfaction.

Lu Wenting steeled himself and said, “Moreover, from the reports we’ve gathered, Man Jiu was killed by a single arrow from Lin Xun…”

Zhangsun Lei slapped the table again and berated, “Your mom’s arse! Killing a Half-Step King who is also adept in the art of assassination with a single arrow? You’re bullshitting me!”

Lu Wenting smiled bitterly, “I knew you wouldn’t believe it, General, but it’s true. There are many witnesses from the Brute Tribes.”

Zhangsun Lei immediately fell silent. After a long time, he massaged his temples and muttered, “Where did that old Blood Kill King bastard pick up such a heaven-defying little monster? Killing a Half-Step King with a single arrow? What a freak…it looks like the Blood Kill King intends to train the kid through the Blood Kill Battlefield…”

Lu Wenting knew that the general had begun to reevaluate Lin Xun’s capabilities, which might be a good thing.

Lu Wenting said, “General, there’s still one other matter.”

“Speak.”

“The Brute Tribes have sent out a new ‘Blood Wanted List’. There are no changes to the names but…”

“But what?”

“Young Master Lin’s name has also appeared on it.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, icy light blossomed in Zhangsun Lie’s eyes. “What’s his rank?”

“49th!”

Zhangsun Lei slammed his hands onto the table, shattering it to pieces.

Unconcealable killing intent surged on his face. “What a high rank. The Brute Tribes are trying to make Lin Xun a public target!”

Lu Wenting thought the same.

The Brute Tribes’ Blood Wanted List was basically the same as the empire’s ‘Bounty List.’ The only difference was that the names listed on the Blood Wanted List all belonged to the empire cultivators!

Every individual was a must-kill for the Brute Tribes, and the higher they ranked, the greater the threat toward the Brute Tribes.

Normally speaking, the top hundred ranks on the Blood Wanted List would only consist of the top Cyclic Derivation experts among the empire cultivators!

Despite arriving in Blood Kill Battlefield a few days ago and only being at the Heaven Ascension stage, Lin Xun had become ranked 49th on the Blood Wanted List. It was obvious that the Brute Tribes now viewed him as a must-kill enemy!

It was no wonder that Zhangsun Lei was angered. Once his ranking was made public, Lin Xun would receive unimaginable ‘attention’ in Blood Kill Battlefield!

Lu Wenting smiled bitterly and said, “That’s not even the most absurd part. Young Master Lin’s bounty is as high as the 10th place person…”

Zhangsun Lei asked, “Who\'s the current 10th place?”

Lu Wenting swiftly replied, “A Half-Step King expert from the 2nd army camp, Qin Wenzhong!”

“They’ve gone too far!”

Zhangsun Lei furiously cursed, “How can the 49th rank have the same bounty as a peak Half-Step King expert? They must be sick in the head!”

“It might be because Man Jiu was killed by a single arrow from Young Master Lin. In addition, he absolutely terrorized those Brute trash, making them feel endangered and threatened. That might be why they made such an unscrupulous arrangement.”

Lu Wenting gave his analysis.

Zhangsun Lei asked, “Where is he now?”

“He’s in closed-door cultivation.”

Zhangsun Lei commanded without hesitation, “Give the order that he is forbidden from stepping out of the camp for the time being!”

Lu Wenting knew that this was to protect Lin Xun.

After all, Lin Xun was drawing too much attention, and his name was now on the Blood Wanted List. If he appeared on the battlefield, the enemies would definitely target him endlessly!

However…

Lu Wenting sighed. He was uncertain if Lin Xun would comply…
