Death Grip
Of course, the reason the Hate Emperor wanted to help Xing Chen resolve his inner turmoil was not out of kindness, but because both Xing Chen's physique and his Hate Emperor's Art required an immense amount of hatred to cultivate. If Xing Chen were to eliminate his inner conflict, the hatred within him would vanish. Once the hatred disappeared, Xing Chen would be unable to cultivate, and it was even possible that his cultivation level would regress.
At that point, the opportunity for the Hate Emperor would arise. He could take advantage of this chance to devour Xing Chen's soul and occupy his body.
However, his plan was disrupted right at the beginning by the oblivious Liu Hao.
As expected, things unfolded almost exactly as the Hate Emperor had anticipated. Almost as soon as Liu Hao finished speaking, a murderous intent flashed in Xing Chen's eyes. He suddenly reached out with his hand, and a powerful suction force emanated from it.
In an instant, Liu Hao found himself grasped by the throat, lifted up like a chicken.
"I wasn't going to hold this against you, but since you insist on seeking death, I’ll kindly send you on your way!" The cold light in Xing Chen's eyes flickered as he tightened his grip. Liu Hao's face instantly turned red; he flailed his arms and kicked his legs in a desperate attempt to escape.
"You... you dare to lay hands on me? I am from the Snow Wind Island Liu Family. You... you..." Liu Hao struggled to speak, trying to intimidate Xing Chen with his powerful background in hopes of being released.
But who was Xing Chen? He was someone who never bowed to threats. If they had discussed things calmly, there might have been a chance that Xing Chen would have let him go. However, since he dared to threaten Xing Chen, it was akin to an old man hanging himself—asking for trouble.
A mere member of the Snow Wind Island Liu Family, even if it were someone from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace, would be ruthlessly killed by Xing Chen if they dared to threaten him.
With a crisp snap, Liu Hao's neck was twisted by Xing Chen, who then unceremoniously tossed him into the vast ocean.
"You... you actually killed him? He is from the Liu Family. Once the Liu Family finds out about this, you will never be able to survive on Snow Wind Island," exclaimed the White-Clad Girl, covering her mouth in shock.
"Who did I kill? Didn't he die at the hands of pirates? What does that have to do with me?" Xing Chen looked at the White-Clad Girl with confusion and replied.
The corners of the White-Clad Girl's mouth twitched slightly before she shook her head. Although Liu Hao had been somewhat arrogant, he didn't deserve death. She hadn't expected that Xing Chen would kill him so decisively.
However, it didn't matter much; after all, she wasn't particularly close to that Liu Hao, merely an acquaintance. Moreover, since Xing Chen was her savior, she had no issue staying silent about this matter. But there were more people here than just him; what if...
"Liu Hao was killed by pirates." Upon seeing Xing Chen's gaze directed at them, those who had been rescued by Xing Chen immediately spoke in unison.
"Child, do not trust these people too much. Although they are currently threatened by you and have no choice, once we return to Snow Wind Island, who knows if they will leak this matter?" Hate Emperor reminded.
"I am aware of that. I never expected them to keep my secret. However, they definitely won't disclose it immediately. What I need is this preparation time. Even if I am really hunted down by the Liu Family later, it won't matter. Perhaps I can even squeeze out my potential and elevate my realm!" Xing Chen said with a cold smile.
"It seems you have a plan already. In that case, I won't worry too much. However, you should still find a way to deal with the difficulties ahead. A Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm individual is rapidly approaching here," Hate Emperor's gloating voice echoed in Xing Chen's mind.
"What? Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm?" Xing Chen's pupils contracted slightly, and he quickly released his Soul Power. With his current Yang Po Fivefold Peak, even comparable to Yang Po Sixth Level Soul Power, nothing within thirty miles could escape his perception.
"What Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm is there? You old rascal are actually lying to me?" After scanning with his Soul Power and finding nothing, Xing Chen said angrily.
"Of course you can't sense it. You think that person is still miles away? However, at his current speed, he will arrive here in about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn," Hate Emperor said.
"Damn it, could it be someone from Evil Wind Island?" Xing Chen frowned deeply. A Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm individual was definitely not something he could handle at the moment. Even though he practiced the powerful Hate Emperor's Art, facing a Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm expert would surely result in instant defeat.
"I don't know who exactly it is, but he is definitely coming here, and judging by his murderous aura, he should be from Evil Wind Island," Hate Emperor said.
"This is bad! A strong individual from Evil Wind Island is pursuing us, and it's a Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert. Everyone prepare yourselves! This person must have come to support those pirates, but since I've already killed those pirates, he definitely won't let us go," Xing Chen said with an extremely serious expression.
"A Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert? How could such a person suddenly appear?" The White-Clad Girl looked at Xing Chen in surprise. However, her Vital Energy was sealed at the moment, and she couldn't release her Soul Power, so she could only ask Xing Chen.
"Who knows? But such a powerful existence is definitely beyond my capability to deal with. Moreover, your Vital Energy is sealed and cannot help. Facing this Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert is almost a dead end," Xing Chen said darkly.
"What should we do? I don't want to die here..."
"It must be because you killed those pirates that attracted the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert. It's all your fault; you must find a way to resolve this."
"That's right, this matter was caused by you, don't drag us into it."
After hearing Xing Chen's words, some people in the crowd immediately spoke up.
This also made Xing Chen see the true nature of these individuals once again. For such people, Xing Chen would never befriend them, so these words were basically ignored by Xing Chen.
Of course, although there were those in the crowd blaming Xing Chen, there were also some who knew how to be grateful and were speaking up for Xing Chen, such as the White-Clad Girl.
She looked at them with a frosty expression and said, "How can you be like this? After all, Xing Chen saved us. Is this how you treat your savior?"
"Exactly, do you have no humanity left? Do you want everyone to know that our Snow Wind Island is filled with ungrateful and inhumane people? If that's the case, who will associate with us from Snow Wind Island in the future? Who will help the people of Snow Wind Island?"
"A bunch of ungrateful bastards. If you're scared, just go back to that cell. Maybe that person from the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm will let you off easy when they see you still safe in your cell!"
