"What's going on? Why aren't you back yet?"
Jovian, the West Region King, who had just pretended to be drunk and left, walked quickly in the direction of the bedroom with a sullen face.
Jovian was about to push the door open and enter. But at this moment, he noticed something and immediately turned to leave.
"This fellow is really alert!"
Fade, who was lying in ambush in the room and ready to launch a sneak attack, saw this scene and cursed in his heart. Then, he rushed out of the room.
He knew that the West Region King was an expert at the ninth stage of the Fetus Refine Realm, and according to Broward, he was still trying to break through to the Controlling Realm.
Therefore, Fade didn't hold back at all. He triggered his Divine Body and frantically
activated his positive energy to gather on the Nine- pointed Plate. With all sorts of powerful energy, he swiftly attacked Jovian.
Although Jovian was quick, he didn't expect that his opponent's attack would be so fierce and so fast. At this moment, he could no longer dodge.
Without any hesitation, he instantly activated his positive energy and formed a shield in front of him. At the same time, he let out a long howl and called for help.
Soon, twenty to thirty Fetus Refine Realm cultivators rushed out from different directions and attacked.
However, before they could get close, Danyaal and Nine-fingered Devil stopped them.
With a loud bang, Fade's attack heavily hit Jovian's shield.
The terrifying positive energy directly shattered the shield. Like a flood, it went towards Jovian.
In an instant, Jovian felt a burst of intense pain in his body. His body was torn apart by this strong attack, as if he was about to be smashed into countless pieces.
Besides, what was even more terrifying was that these positive energies had different properties. Some of them were scorching hot, some were piercingly cold, and some were extremely sharp...
This made it even more difficult for Jovian to resist the attack. The wounds on his body were constantly fighting for his life, and he couldn't take it anymore.
Jovian was decisive. Seeing that his physical body couldn't hold on any longer, he gritted his teeth and pounced forward.
At the same time, a streak of flowing light rushed out of his body towards the sky at an extreme speed.
Seeing this, Fade narrowed his eyes and activated his wind essence. His speed instantly increased as he chased after the flowing light.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise below. It was the sound of Jovian's body colliding with Fade's. Jovian's vital fetus, which had escaped in the air, couldn't help but feel heartache when it heard the collision. After all, it was a physical body that he had painstakingly refined for hundreds of years and had finally reached the King Body level. Now that it was about to disappear, how could it not be a pity?
However, no matter how heartbreaking it was, he didn't dare to look back.
He thought in his heart, "No matter who you are, if you dare to touch me, Jovian, you will die."
However, at this moment, a figure blocked his way.
"Surrender or die!"
Jovian's face stiffened when he saw the figure standing in front of him. In an instant, his expression froze.
"You-you-"
Fade repeated, "Surrender or die!"
Fade had learned from Broward and the beloved concubine that Evorald was targeting the Chinese of Sun- Moon City. Now, after listening to Jovian's own account, Fade had a clear understanding of it.
Jovian wanted to secretly improve his strength and break through to the Controlling Realm, but he didn't have enough cultivation resources, so he didn't dare to use all kinds of resources and treasures in the mansion. After all, Mulji kept a record of everything.
If Jovian tried something, Mulji would definitely notice it. At that time, he might lose his life.
Therefore, in the end, Jovian decided to target the Chinese, who had almost been forgotten. He kidnapped them and used their flesh and blood as resources for his cultivation.
This operation against Sun-Moon City was the last step for him to break through to the Controlling Realm. He specially ordered Evorald to get everyone he could.
Unexpectedly, Evorald failed. Instead, he recruited Fade, which landed the West Region King in the situation he was in at the moment.
Later, Fade asked some questions about Sun-Moon City and the Chinese, and Jovian answered them one by one.
Finally, Fade asked the main question. "What exactly happened to the cultivation curse of the Chinese? Why can't they break through to the Fetus Refine Realm?"
When it came to this, Jovian was stunned at first, and then he seemed to think of something. His expression changed, and he showed some hesitation, as if it was difficult for him to talk about.
Fade noticed the change in his expression and said coldly, "Tell me whatever comes to mind. If you try to hide anything from me, you know the consequences."
Jovian trembled and said, "I don't know much about the curse of the Chinese. At first, I thought it was just a joke, so I didn't take it seriously."
"However, when I came to guard the West Region City, I came into contact with the Chinese. Only then did I realize that the curse was real. For thousands of years, there was no cultivator in the Fetus Refine Realm in Sun-Moon City."
"As for the reason behind the curse, I'm unsure. A hundred years ago, when I returned to the capital city, I asked Mulji about it, but he didn't give me an answer. Before I left, he gave me a talisman and told me that if there was chaos in Sun-Moon City, I could use it to suppress and solve it."
"It's just that I've never used that talisman. So I still don't know why the Chinese in Sun-Moon City are cursed."
