"Are you ready?" Tang Rao walked up to Shie E and gathered a bit of Spiritual Energy.

Shie E raised his head, glaring at Tang Rao fiercely.

In his eyes, there was resentment, jealousy, reluctance—all sorts of emotions intertwined, incredibly complex.

"All I want to know is who you are, and why you know about the Nine-Headed King Hall?" Shie E gritted his teeth; he couldn't rest in peace without getting clarity on this.

"You're about to die; what difference does knowing make?" Tang Rao shook his head; truth be told, he disliked wasting words on someone doomed to die.

Shie E's teeth clenched with a grating sound.

However, suddenly, Shie E's expression drastically changed.

"In twenty days, the Nine-Headed King Hall... You! You are the chosen one of the Inspector! You belong to Zeng Yan of Yan nation!" The sharpness in Shie E's eyes glinted.

At this moment, Shie E's intelligence was praiseworthy; he actually managed to guess it directly.

Tang Rao just shrugged. If you were always that smart, you wouldn't have to die.

Unfortunately, the reason smart people are smart is that they always think clearly.

Clearly, you are not one of them.

A flash of enlightenment can't save you.

"You can't kill me! I know Zeng Yan! I am a Reserve Patrol Envoy; you can't kill me!" Shie E roared loudly.

Reserve Patrol Envoy?

Tang Rao furrowed his brows slightly.

Clearly, the role of Patrol Envoy is mysterious, and the position carries significant weight. Killing rashly could, if discovered, undoubtedly cause trouble.

But... under these circumstances, not killing might bring even more trouble.

Truly headache-inducing.

"Tang Rao, meet your death!" Beneath the old tree, Shie E suddenly erupted, his palms surged with Spiritual Energy, attacking with all his might, mobilizing all his strength.

This was his only hope. Only by killing Tang Rao could he have a chance to survive.

Tang Rao narrowed his eyes.

"Nine Deaths Undying!" Suddenly, Tang Rao roared, and a glow burst forth all over his body.

Bang!

Shie E's palms instantly imprinted on Tang Rao's chest, emitting a ferocious boom.

Boom boom boom!

Centered around Tang Rao and Shie E, a shockwave swept out, blasting the surrounding old houses into fragments.

Even the air seemed to explode.

However, very soon, the excitement in Shie E's eyes gradually faded, turning into fear, becoming dull.

Because Tang Rao hadn't moved a step; his own full force strike didn't make Tang Rao retreat at all.

How could this be!

He had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and even if it was the later stage of Foundation Establishment, they would definitely not be fine after taking a full palm strike from him.

Why? Why is Tang Rao's facial expression not changing at all?

It's impossible! He can't be that strong!

"Eight Extremes Dragon King Collapse!" Tang Rao growled, his right fist concentrated with energy, exploding out.

His fist landed on Shie E's head.

Pfft!

The next moment, Shie E's head burst open like a watermelon crushed by a car wheel, blood splattered everywhere.

"Ah!!!" A scream came from behind Tang Rao.

Jiang Langhuan.

Tang Rao slowly turned around, looking towards the pale Jiang Langhuan.

"Didn't I tell you... to stay in the carriage?" Tang Rao looked at Jiang Langhuan, his throat undulating.

"I, I, I was worried about you, so I just... came to have a look."

"Puchi!" As soon as Jiang Langhuan finished speaking, Tang Rao's face suddenly flushed ~red, followed by a mouthful of blood spraying out.

His first layer of Nine Death Undying Body was only half completed, after all, taking a full strike at the Foundation Establishment stage was just too far-fetched.

But in the situation just now, Tang Rao had no other choice but to tough it out with his half-baked Nine Deaths Undying Body.

Indeed, he had been careless, thinking that the foe from Release from Evil Path had completely given up resisting.

This was the price of his carelessness.

"Tang Rao, are you okay?" Seeing Tang Rao spitting blood, Jiang Langhuan couldn't care about the head-exploding Release from Evil Path foe anymore, and rushed to Tang Rao's side in a few strides, her face full of urgency.

"Don't touch me!!" Tang Rao shouted urgently.

But he was still a bit too slow, Jiang Langhuan's hand had already touched his arm.

Boom!

In an instant, a roaring sound came, and Jiang Langhuan's body, like a kite with a broken string, was directly blasted out over ten meters away.

Bright red blood spilled from Jiang Langhuan's nose and mouth, and Jiang Langhuan lay motionless, having completely lost consciousness.

"Damn it!" Tang Rao cursed fiercely.

The Spiritual Energy from the Release from Evil Path foe rampaged inside his body, and Jiang Langhuan touching him at that moment provided an outlet for this energy.

Although he tried his best to stop it, a thread of Spiritual Energy still burst out.

For Jiang Langhuan, even this bit of Spiritual Energy was enough to be fatal.

"Scram!" Tang Rao roared, furiously channeling the first layer of his half-assed Nine Deaths Undying Body, fiercely compressing the Spiritual Energy from the Release from Evil Path inside his body.

Bang bang bang bang!

Tang Rao's body exploded like beans popping, and in an instant, he turned into a bloodied figure.

The skin on his body all blistered, yet still attached to the flesh, making for a gruesomely muddled sight that was chilling to the bone.

"Consolidate!" Tang Rao, gritting his teeth, chanted the mnemonic.

The exploded skin on his body started to come alive, then eerily began to retract, sticking close to the fresh red flesh, wriggling, and began to rapidly heal.

In less than a minute, the skin on Tang Rao's body had completely returned to normal, though his body was still covered in bloodstains.

"Jiang Langhuan!" Tang Rao took an arrow-step, dashing over to Jiang Langhuan's side, and immediately placed his hand on her neck.

"Damn it!" Tang Rao cursed directly feeling Jiang Langhuan's condition.

More than just bad!

Her heartbeat had almost stopped, and her vital energy was exceedingly weak.

She could die at any moment.

Taking out a liquid from the Dragon Blood Tree branch from the Space Token, Tang Rao couldn't concern himself with the details and took a gulp, then bent down to Jiang Langhuan's mouth and transferred it to her.

Tang Rao was very clear that the liquid from the Dragon Blood Tree branch could only sustain Jiang Langhuan's life force.

It was simply impossible to revive her relying solely on the Dragon Blood Tree branch liquid.

"Forget it." Tang Rao took out a Blood Spirit Pill and a seed of the Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng, gritted his teeth, and fed them all to Jiang Langhuan's mouth.

"Bang!" Immediately after, Tang Rao slammed his palm onto Jiang Langhuan's abdomen.

"Damn, no wonder she wasn't cultivating." Feeling the incredibly feeble Spirit Root of Jiang Langhuan, Tang Rao rolled his eyes.

Such a feeble Spirit Root could never be stimulated by the meager resources of the Jiang Family.

The Spiritual Energy produced by the Blood Spirit Pill and Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng swirled in Jiang Langhuan's abdomen, violently as if trying to burst out of her body.

"Coalesce!" Tang Rao didn't give this burst of Spiritual Energy the slightest chance, pressing it down with powerful force, controlling it from the outside, directly consolidating the Spiritual Energy within Jiang Langhuan's body.

It had to be said, the transformation rate of Jiang Langhuan's despair-inducing Spirit Root was pitifully low.

A single Blood Spirit Pill and a Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng seed only produced two hundred measures of Spiritual Energy.

However, the consolidation was enough.

In just tens of seconds, the Spiritual Energy cycling in Jiang Langhuan's abdomen cultivated a spirit embryo.

Consolidating energy.

"Waste!" Tang Rao felt a pang of heartache, took out a large handful of Blood Spirit Pills, and forcefully stuffed them into Jiang Langhuan's mouth.

He only had one way to save Jiang Langhuan, which was to let her achieve Foundation Establishment, remaking her marrow and body.

If not this, then death was the only other outcome.

Of course, if they went through with this, Jiang Langhuan's potential would be limited to the peak of Foundation Establishment for the rest of her life.

Nevertheless, for Jiang Langhuan's pathetically feeble Spirit Root, this could be considered a great fortune.
