Chapter 473 -473 Wasteland (35)_1

Facing Ji Yicheng’s grief-stricken questioning, Fu Qian really gave an honest answer.

However, as expected, the truth hurt the most. After hearing it, not only did the listener stare at Fu Qian as if he were an archenemy, but he also started to tremble.

Is that an exaggeration!

Under such intense scrutiny, the brows beneath Fu Qian’s mask furrowed.

At a time like this, shouldn’t you be ecstatic, thinking ‘Yes, I’m worthless, so I told you all the valuable intel in my belly, now will you spare my dog life’?

Is the sense of existence more important than life itself?

“Do you think you have the upper hand and can humiliate me without restraint?”

But Ji Yicheng was indeed a character. Under extreme humiliation and anger, after a shivering fit, he entered a strange calm and said word by word.

“Isn’t that so?”

Fu Qian’s tone was doubtful.

Even at this point, you’re still trying to act all high and mighty.

…

His response once again made Ji Yicheng’s breath hitch.

It seemed that was indeed the case, after all, one is at the mercy of their captor.

And if you think about it, I’ve done the same thing more than once myself.

What’s more, considering the lunatic in front of me.

“It’s not…”

However, after a bout of desperate mental struggle, he finally shook his head.

“You’re not qualified yet, and some things are beyond your understanding.”

In his solemn declaration, he slowly descended from his levitating state, but he didn’t just stand there; he continued to squat until he knelt on one knee, stretching out his right hand to press against the ground.

Second class? Your pose doesn’t seem quite right, though.

Fu Qian observed his movements very seriously, not missing any details.

Even though he looked like he was deep in thought, as if about to unleash a powerful move, Fu Qian had no intention of stopping him.

I really did speak the truth just now; the intelligence is far more important than killing him.

Only someone like Ji Yicheng, who judges others by himself, would think I intentionally humiliated him.

Maybe he’s so angry because subconsciously, he knows I’m telling the truth?

“You will never understand such sanctity and nobility.”

Ji Yicheng, who had made up his mind, looked up at Fu Qian, his eyes seemingly ablaze with white flames.

His voice was like a chant.

“Angels never sacrifice in vain.”

Hmm?

Let’s not talk about anything else, but with your behavior, do you really have the nerve to call yourself sacred and noble?

Compared to you, the bunch of materials you leveled up with are more suited to be called that.

While Fu Qian questioned Ji Yicheng’s self-praise, a white flame appeared from his hand on the ground and quickly spread and expanded, engulfing his entire body.

Surging brilliance followed, washing over everything in all directions, enveloping everything around them.

Fu Qian didn’t try to dodge at first, letting himself face the onslaught head-on.

Intense heat came at him, as if there were a high-temperature furnace in front of him.

Too bad for someone who has faced the sun head-on like Fu Qian, this was nothing.

It turned out that when I lost San at the relic site, it was primarily because of the special state of being stripped from the fallen shadow’s corruption.

Out here, with his current level, it was nothing more than a bright light spa treatment.

However, beyond the heat, the sensations that followed were indeed a bit peculiar.

Under the radiant glow, Fu Qian felt as if every cell in his body had become clear and translucent.

Their activity was unprecedentedly lively, as if they were linked and meshed together, spawning countless invisible mites within his flesh.

Is this the true nature of feathers? Do these mites devour flesh, and after leaving the surface of the body, form feathers?

Fu Qian had a vague epiphany but then immediately furrowed his brows.

This angel doesn’t seem very proper at all!

At this moment, Ji Yicheng, with his entire body engulfed in flames, had already undergone a complete transformation.

From his hair to his facial features, his entire being melted like a candle, with countless tiny mites moving under his semi-transparent skin, eventually converging into a fluid cascade.

The next moment, the accumulated fluid exploded with a bang, forming a sky full of light points.

Upon closer inspection, they were feathers burning with white flames.

What a grand firework display!

While marvelling, Fu Qian nimbly dodged the impact and even managed to catch a feather in the process.

His Sanity didn’t drop, which once again validated his guess.

With that explosion, Ji Yicheng had completely vanished without a trace.

Without the influence of a relic, Fu Qian was quite certain that Ji Yicheng had not simply left using visual effects, but had truly dissipated.

Dead? It sure looked that way.

Fu Qian glanced into the distance. With such a spectacular sight, he was sure that Angui must have witnessed it.

And with such a commotion, the fact that no one from Siren Group had come to check suggested that Kelson was likely the reason.

This brother’s current state was much more pleasing than before!

The fireworks dissipated quickly, and Fu Qian, looking at the empty space in front of him, did not waste any time and turned to leave immediately.

No mission completion prompt came through, which wasn’t too surprising.

After all, there was still one question that hadn’t been cleared up—what exactly was the anomaly?

So far, it seemed that Ji Yicheng was fundamentally just like Sir William, merely an Oath Taker. Logically, he shouldn’t interfere with the normal transformation of his sworn subject.

Just like with Sir William back then, his task had been merely to clear all the Oath Takers known as Sinners.

So the secret he was hiding was not the Goddess of Sin and Punishment herself, but rather the fact he had become a Sinner.

The two missions were fundamentally different.

Therefore, until he figured out what the problem was, Fu Qian would not blindly be optimistic.

Now, after a conversation with Ji Yi, it seemed appropriate to visit the relic again.

With the only known Oath Taker having died heroically, Fu Qian was curious about any changes to that mirror.

Of course, despite the lack of evidence, Fu Qian didn’t think Ji Yicheng was the type of person who couldn’t withstand humiliation and would rather die than submit, so whether he was truly dead was still debatable.

But it was worth investigating either way.

…

Siren Group’s underground relic soon came into view again, but Fu Qian discovered two oddities.

Firstly, the entrance to the relic was now deserted.

The people from Siren had all withdrawn, and they hadn’t even attempted to hide the entrance, leaving it there as if it were free for the taking.

This was undeniably astonishing; after all, Siren Group had invested a lot of manpower and resources in this matter, and with a bunch of wild Transcendents watching, such a decisive abandonment required considerable resolve.

Generally speaking, the larger the organization, the less capable it is of making such a change.

Even though, with the current situation, this was a rather appropriate response.

Kelson has had a moment of great enlightenment, comparable to cutting off the three corporeal selves!

Amidst his admiration, Fu Qian directed his gaze towards another direction.

The second odd thing was that while the people from Siren had left, others had appeared.

And one of them was an acquaintance!
