Chapter 364: Chapter 364: The Cardinal in Red (16th Update)
Seeing this scene, Quintina couldn’t help but tremble all over. This man was simply too ruthless and terrifying.
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he had killed one person, defeated another, and casually annihilated an entire family.
Compared to this, the words and actions of the three people just now had all become a joke.
Xue An slowly walked over, looking down at Quintina with a hint of an amused smile on his lips.
“Know why I didn’t kill you?”
Quintina’s eyes flashed with defiant light as she said coldly, “Noble Blood Clan members will absolutely not submit. Don’t delude yourself into thinking that I would submit to you…”
Quintina instinctively thought that Xue An was attracted to her beauty and wanted to take her as a female slave.
But Xue An shook his head. “You’re mistaken. I have no interest in you at all, just some interest in your Blood Clan.”
Interest in the Blood Clan?
Quintina was startled, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.
“I ask you, what level of Blood Clan is needed to condense such a Blood Pearl?” Xue An asked.
Quintina bit her lip and didn’t speak.
Xue An smiled slightly. “I hope you can always be this strong.”
With that said, Xue An waved his hand.
A black shadow flew directly into Quintina’s forehead.
“What…what have you done to me?” Quintina screamed in fear.
“Just a little soul spell. If you don’t behave, this spell will burn your soul to ashes!” Xue An said indifferently.
Quintina was about to speak when a sudden excruciating pain from deep within her soul stripped her of all her dignity.
“Kill… kill me!” Quintina begged.
Unmoved, Xue An watched her. “Had I been defeated by you just now, my fate would probably have been worse, right? Like being drained of blood by you and becoming a blood slave?”
Quintina’s face turned pale.
Xue An was right.
Had Xue An been defeated just now, Quintina would not have hesitated to drain his blood.
After all, the blood of a Cultivator was of great benefit to the increase in cultivation level of the Blood Clan.
“Now, I’ll ask you again, what level of Blood Clan is capable of condensing this thing?”
“A member of Blood Clan above the rank of Marquis can condense a Blood Pearl when they fall. But only Blood Pearls from someone above the rank of Grand Duke are of the most value!” Quintina said with difficulty.
Xue An nodded. “Good, this is a good start!”
As he spoke, the agonizing pain in Quintina’s soul vanished, and the overwhelming sense of relief made her wish she could just die in her sleep then and there.
But Xue An pressed his hand directly onto her forehead.
Quintina’s throat emitted a low, gurgling sound from fear.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m looking for something!” Xue An said with a smile.
As he spoke, his Divine Sense directly invaded Quintina’s sea of consciousness, copying everything about the Blood Clan.
Withdrawling his hand, Xue An raised his brow slightly.
He had just obtained a wealth of information from Quintina’s mind.
The Blood Clan was a creature that appeared on Earth at some unknown time, but their history was probably longer than that of humans.
They were a race that walked in darkness, with strict hierarchy and long lifespans.
Rank symbolized their strength.
They were generally divided into five ranks: Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount, and Baron. Reaching the rank of Grand Duke, their strength was already comparable to that at the Peak of Loose Immortals.
Above the rank of Duke, there were Princes, and the terrifying Second Generation and First Generation.
But to Quintina, those were beings of legend.
She had never seen anything like it.
Xue An’s lips curled into a smile. If the blood pearl of a Grand Duke could break the seal, then wouldn’t the existence of beings of even higher levels be even more formidable?
At this thought, Xue An felt a surge of excitement.
He casually released the sword energy that bound Quintina.
Quintina climbed up from the ground, her face filled with fear, her gaze flickering, uncertain of what Xue An intended to do.
Xue An said indifferently, “Wife, there’s nothing fun in Xiangjiang. I’ll take you on a honeymoon trip to Europe!”
An Yan had no objections and nodded in agreement.
Quintina, however, was shaken to the core, a thought so unbelievable rising in her mind.
What was he going to do in Europe?
Could it be…?
Ha! This man might be powerful, but Europe is the stronghold of the Blood Clan. If he goes there, he’s likely to be torn to shreds by those Blood Clan powerhouses!
At this notion, a sneaky pleasure arose in Quintina’s heart.
But no sooner had she entertained this thought than the soul-wrenching pain assaulted her once more.
Quintina collapsed to the ground with a thud, unable to move from the agony.
Xue An smiled slightly, “I forgot to tell you, once cursed by my spell, you must do as I say, without any hint of resentment or thoughts of revenge, or else you’ll suffer endless pain! Of course, if you behave well during our trip to Europe, I might lift the curse, understand?”
Quintina looked at Xue An as if gazing at a devil, nodding her head in terror, “Yes… Master!”
In a church in Xiangjiang.
A purple-robed priest stood to the side with utmost respect, while seated on a chair was a cardinal dressed in red.
The Red Cardinal, within the Church of Light, was the strongest after the Pope and the four great leaders.
Such beings could easily change the monarchy of a small nation.
And now, one such figure was making a low-key appearance in Xiangjiang.
At this moment, the Red Cardinal was playing with a Jade Marrow Spirit Stone in his hand, his face slowly revealing a look of excitement.
“This object… is the very gem that His Holiness the Pope has been desperately searching for, one that can connect with the Heavenly Realm! To think that today, it has resurfaced in Xiangjiang!”
The Red Cardinal looked up at the purple-robed priest, “You’ve done very well!”
The purple-robed priest was overwhelmed with emotion.
He was the deacon of the Xiangjiang diocese, a middle-ranking official in the Church of Light, still a long way from a towering figure like the Red Cardinal.
Therefore, having received praise from the Red Cardinal, he was so excited he was on the verge of tears.
“All glory to God!” the purple-robed deacon took a deep breath and said solemnly.
The Red Cardinal’s demeanor grew solemn as he nodded in agreement, “Indeed, all comes from the glory of God. I will report this matter to the Chief Judge once we return!”
“Thank you, Your Eminence!”
“What did that man look like?” the Red Cardinal inquired.
“Nothing out of the ordinary! And I’ve already checked, whether it’s the Huaxia cultivation world or foreign ability users, there’s no trace of him,” said the purple-robed deacon.
The Red Cardinal’s eyes sparkled, “This object is extremely important to the church, we must thoroughly investigate this man’s background! If necessary, we can offer him some benefits!”
“Yes! But the man mentioned he wants only the Blood Pearl!”
The Red Cardinal frowned, “The Dark Council in Europe has been quite restless recently, and the Holy Knights Legion is suppressing an Evil God in Northern Europe! The church doesn’t have the spare forces to subdue the Blood Clan, and besides, it would take at least a Blood Clan member of Marquis rank or higher to produce a Blood Pearl!”
After contemplating for a moment, he said, “Best to ascertain the origins of this Spirit Stone first! I believe this person must have discovered a hidden treasure!”
“Understood!”
On the Red Cardinal’s face emerged a holy smile, “All is given by God, and if it indeed is a hidden treasure, that too is the glory of God, is it not?”
