Chapter 2249 - 2208: First Decline of Heavenly Beings

"Heh heh, since brother you're so sincere about offering up your woman, then us three brothers won't stand on ceremony."

The leader at Second Decline of Heavenly Beings swaggered over, reaching out to grab Jiangh Churan.

The other two were also snickering lewdly, one staring at Jiangh Churan, rubbing his hands in horny impatience, looking like his itch was driving him crazy.

The other one, however, reached toward Wang Xiaoqiang, his face full of a dirty grin as he said, "Heh heh, little brother, big bro loves you to death, come on, let big bro have a good look at you..."

His whole act was like some convict in a men's prison saying to a new inmate, "Come on, pick up that bar of soap for me."

Wang Xiaoqiang had never been through this kind of shit before, but he still understood the guy was a full-blown pervert who wanted to make him his gay buddy, which made Wang Xiaoqiang feel sick to his stomach.

Seeing the three close in, he didn't hesitate anymore. His arms shuddered, and his Blood Qi instantly exploded. With a boom, his Blood Qi blasted outward, slamming the three of them flying. As they were knocked away, all three spewed mouthfuls of fresh blood.

Cultivators at the Decline Realm of Heavenly Beings, if they weren't Body Refining Masters like Wang Xiaoqiang, their physical bodies would inevitably decay, their body strength not even as tough as Heavenly Soul Realm cultivators.

The three had no guard up at all when Wang Xiaoqiang unleashed his Blood Qi at point-blank range. Their resistance was even weaker than Heavenly Soul Realm cultivators, so with just one strike, Wang Xiaoqiang put all three on the brink of death.

Jiangh Churan was stunned on the spot at the sight.

She had thought Wang Xiaoqiang was scared of dying and was handing her over to these three bandits, but she never expected Wang Xiaoqiang to be like this... luring the enemy closer, striking when they least expected it, one sudden blow—decisive, ruthless, domineering as hell, showing no mercy, directly blasting them into heavy injuries.

Methods like this deserved a big fat thumbs-up.

This strike shocked Jiangh Churan, but to Wang Xiaoqiang it was nothing special, just his usual way of doing things.

Wang Xiaoqiang could tell these three had strong cultivation bases, all at the Decline Realm of Heavenly Beings, all having already condensed Divine Spirit and Divine Soul. If he took them out and absorbed and Practiced Transformation on them, he'd definitely be able to break through his own cultivation base to the First Decline of Heavenly Beings Stage. But he was afraid they'd run during the fight, so he wanted to kill them in one move, thus he lured them in close for a single crippling strike.

After blasting the three, Wang Xiaoqiang gave them no time to catch their breath. He lunged straight at the Second Decline of Heavenly Beings expert, and as he drew near, his Blood Qi erupted again. With another boom, the violent Blood Qi slammed the guy flying a second time.

This Second Decline guy's body was extremely decayed; both his legs were already crippled. After two Blood Qi blasts, he spewed blood and died on the spot.

Only at the moment of death did he realize they'd made the wrong call. The man in front of them wasn't dumb at all—he'd just been pretending. And the reason they were wiped out was because they were the ones who were truly dumb.

The other two bandits at First Decline of Heavenly Beings tried to flee, but Wang Xiaoqiang snorted coldly, stretched out both hands, and his Grasp Stars and Moon Technique transformed, extending infinitely, swelling larger in an instant, fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye he grabbed both their heads—and squeezed.

With two booming pops, brains and blood sprayed into the morning sky like a peacock spreading its tail, dazzling and tragic.

Watching Wang Xiaoqiang's thunderous methods, Jiangh Churan's delicate body trembled, excited and nervous to the point she could barely control herself, her mind almost swept away.

Only now did she finally understand that Wang Xiaoqiang's strength was even greater than she'd imagined.

In that moment, her heart finally submitted to Wang Xiaoqiang; she was willing to entrust both body and soul to this man.

After finishing off the three, Wang Xiaoqiang used Grasp Stars and Moon Technique to snatch at the void, drawing their Divine Souls and Soul and Spirit into his palms. The Soul and Spirit Manual began to run; flames surged up from his palms, Practicing Transformation on them, turning them into Soul Energy, condensing strands of Divine Sense...

As Wang Xiaoqiang's Divine Sense condensed, it grew stronger and stronger. His body continued to decay; the bones in his left hand cracked loudly again, and his skin shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This round of shriveling was far worse than the last few, frighteningly so.

This terrifying sight also meant his cultivation base had stepped into the First Decline of Heavenly Beings Realm.

If it were anyone else, their entire arm would be useless by now. But his left hand was only half-crippled.

All of this fell into Jiangh Churan's eyes. Watching Wang Xiaoqiang advance to First Decline of Heavenly Beings, while his bodily decay was minimal, she knew he was a Body Refining Master, yet still couldn't help feeling a mix of curiosity and awe. Her delicate figure flashed as she moved closer to Wang Xiaoqiang, watching him command his Pet Beast to devour the three bandits' corpses. Her eyes sparkled as she said, "Brother Qiang, you just advanced to First Decline of Heavenly Beings."

"Mm." Wang Xiaoqiang reached out with his right hand, wrapping an arm around Jiangh Churan's slender waist, then stretched his left hand in front of her. "Ranran, look, my left hand has already started to decay, it's half-crippled. You don't want your man to be a cripple, right? And when our son is born someday, you wouldn't want his father to be a cripple either..."

Jiangh Churan lowered her eyes in shy embarrassment at his words, but inside she felt no rejection at all. She had already given herself to Wang Xiaoqiang, and Wang Xiaoqiang was this strong, fitting the standard in her heart, so she was willing to entrust herself to him.

Blushing, she extended her jade-like slender hand and held Wang Xiaoqiang's half-crippled left hand. "Mm, of course I don't want that..."

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Since you don't want that, then hand over the Immortal Beast Marrow you got and give it to your husband."

Jiangh Churan froze for a moment at that, not expecting his words to be waiting for her right here, and that he'd clearly had his eye on her Immortal Beast Marrow for a while already. She rolled her beautiful eyes at him and said with mock anger, "Hmph, you must've had bad intentions from the start."

Wang Xiaoqiang didn't bother to hide it, just chuckled wickedly. "Not just the Immortal Beast Marrow, but also the Spirit Chicken—and of course, you. Honestly, Ranran, from the very first moment I saw you, I started having designs on you..."

"Hmph, that sounds filthy. How are you any different from those three bandits?" Jiangh Churan glared at him, both shy and annoyed.

"Of course I'm different. If those three bandits had taken you, they'd definitely have killed you afterward or used you as a bargaining chip to threaten your family. But me? I'll only protect you." As Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, he pulled her into his arms and planted a kiss on her snow-pale face. "Remember this: any woman of mine, Wang Xiaoqiang, I'll cherish. I won't allow her to suffer any harm."

Jiangh Churan felt a small swell of emotion at that. With a flick of her finger, the Jade Bottle containing the Immortal Beast Marrow appeared in her palm. She held it out to Wang Xiaoqiang. "Here, it's all yours."

"Good wife, mwah." Wang Xiaoqiang planted another kiss on Jiangh Churan's pretty cheek, then snatched up the Jade Bottle and swallowed its contents directly. The Immortal Beast Marrow tasted awful, like drinking blood, with a strong metallic stench.

Wang Xiaoqiang paused, frowning slightly, then had a sudden idea. A Five Elements Spirit Spring flew out, attaching itself to the mouth of the Jade Bottle and started sucking.

In the end, the bottle of marrow was completely drained by the Spiritual Spring. Once it was full, the Spiritual Spring burrowed into Wang Xiaoqiang's half-crippled left hand, beginning to nourish his already withered bones, shriveled muscles, and stiff nerves...
