Prime Originator

Chapter 252 - Kingdom In Chaos

The firework that was a giant drop of blood exploded in the sky was like a beacon in the night that sent a ripple throughout the kingdom of Crawford like a chain reaction.

After the first firework from Eastfell Region, three more rose from its neighboring region, followed by another five from the neighboring region of those neighboring regions until the giant drop of blood was seen above every major city and town in the kingdom.

Leon was scuttling on the rooftops of the Upper District when he saw the giant drop of blood in the sky above the nearest neighboring city of the north, Rainwallow City.

"What's going on here? A giant drop of blood in the sky?"

Leon used [Spirit Eyes] and scrutinized every direction and noticed similar firework in the sky.

"Could this be related to the Bloodfiend Sect?" Leon guessed with scrunched brows. "Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a good sign. The enemy has infiltrated the kingdom more deeply than I expected. I wonder if there are any rats hiding in the Capital…"

A whistling sound was suddenly heard hurling through the air.

Leon turned towards the direction of the Royal Palace and saw a fiery ball of intensely concentrated energy taking off at great speed.

In a short instance, it broke past the starting threshold of the Sky's Suppression and continued to fly higher and higher.

At the same time, it became shaky and unstable until…

Boom!

The fiery ball exploded in the high sky and a magnified sun was seen in its place.

The night sky was temporarily lit brightly.

"That's…"

Leon wasn't sure if he was hearing things, but he felt like he heard Grandpa Don's voice, shouting "explosion" with great gusto.

He immediately facepalmed.

"This is not a competition."

Leon's lips twitched and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Somewhere in the dark alleys of the Capital, two hooded figures looked up at the brightly lit sun in the sky that started to fade as quickly as it came.

They looked at each other with confusion, while one of them was still holding onto a similar cylindrical object, not sure whether to fire the signal into the sky or not.

Was there another group in the Capital that they did not know about?

"To fire or not to fire…"

"Look, that's not the same as our beacon signal."

"That's right… it's just a blazing sun."

"Someone is messing with our heads."

Both were speechless.

"Right… so about this beacon signal…"

"Fire it."

"Okay."

The two hooded figures quietly discussed before a similar giant drop of blood appeared in the skies of the Capital after the fiery sun faded into the night.

"Sure enough, there are still rats in the Capital."

Leon locked his eyes on the location coldly. It was not far from him at all, still within the Upper West District. A black spear had already appeared in his hand.

"If I'm quick, I might be able to catch these rats!"

With that thought, Leon blinked from rooftop to rooftops, towards the location.

In a few instances, he arrived with a heavy thud.

The two hooded figures gasped with surprise. They did not think someone would arrive so quickly.

Leon studied the hooded figures in the dark alley with a sharp look. Nothing could be hidden from his eyes.

Their hidden features were revealed to him. Very grotesque but still very human. This was just the form. As for their nature, he had yet to find out.

"Are you both from the Bloodfiend Sect?" Leon asked coolly.

The two hooded figures did not answer and lunged at him with their drawn swords.

"Courting death!"

Leon swept away both their attacks with his spear like a dragon tail slap without holding back.

The two hooded figures were sent flying by the force of his swing and slammed into the concrete walls of an adjacent building with broken sternums and coughing blood.

In a single strike, he had already incapacitated the two hooded figures, who were obviously not his match.

The might of his spear sweep contained four echoes and reached a staggering 7200-jin worth of force. If kinetic energy were infused into his attack, his opponents might have died on the spot, but that was not what he wanted.

"You, how can you be so strong?" A hooded figure wiped the blood from his cheek and asked with incredulity.

None of the two could fathom how Leon's physical strength could be so tyrannical. With the faint energy fluctuation, the boy was giving off, they thought he was a person who had only just stepped on the road of cultivation.

"Useless talk. Answer the question. What was that beacon signal for?" Leon frowned while having the two pinned against the cracked wall with his spear.

"Hehe, you answer my question first, then I'll answer yours." One of the hooded figures smirked, but that smirk was soon frozen for eternity.

Leon had snapped his neck with his spare hand without further thoughts.

The remaining hooded figure also froze at Leon's decisiveness. "You killed him."

"I only needed one person alive to answer my questions," Leon said nonchalantly.

How could he not see that they were buying time to heal their wounds?

The grotesque feature, the blood lust, and the strong blood vitality in their bodies. Leon had practically confirmed that they were blood cultivators from the Bloodfiend Sect.

"Unless you want to end up like him, you should answer my questions."

"Ptui!" The hooded figure spat a phlegm of blood at Leon and fearlessly said, "Do you think I am stupid enough to believe that you will let me go after? No need to ask. You will soon find out anyway!"

Leon had craned his neck and dodged the spit of blood. He frowned at the other party's words.

The person did not fear death and had completely accepted his fate.

Before Leon could torture the answer out of the person, his attention was drawn away by a sudden scream that ran through the open streets.

Looking back, he was greeted with a bloodstained grin.

"Looks like it has started." The person said.

Leon deepened his frown.

"Count yourself lucky. I don't have the time to let you experience a life worse than death."

With that said, Leon snapped the person's neck and gave him a quick death.

The two hooded figures were only 3 stars and 4 stars in cultivation, respectively. If Leon had to guess, they were probably inner sect members.

Leon searched their bodies, but found nothing of importance and quickly left to check what was going on outside on the streets.

"Ahhh! Don't kill me!"

"What do you want?! Money? I give you all of them! Please spare me, ahhh!"

"Nooo, I don't want to die!"

The street was filled with chaos.

The sect members of Bloodfiend Sect ran rampant through the streets, setting up fires, destroying buildings, and slaughtering people.

Leon instinctively had a bad feeling. The signal was to inform all Bloodfiend Sect members to wreak havoc and exterminate all life?!

"Goddammit! That damn evil sect! They've gone completely mad!" Leon gnashed his teeth with rage.

It was not hard for Leon to arrive at the conclusion that the Bloodfiend Sect was going through senseless killing in every city and town they had their people planted and lit with the beacon signal.

How many lives will be lost this night?! Some people just want to see the world burn! I will not condone such madness!

Leon gripped his spear and leaped onto a high-rise building to quickly observe the situation.

The city guards had been reformed and turned over a new leaf, performing dutifully to uphold the law and security of the Capital.

When the instance of chaos broke out, they were the first to rush out to dwell the chaos.

The city guards were currently locked in battle with the Bloodfiend Sect alongside some nobles, but they were clearly at a disadvantage.

Their cultivation wasn't as high and blood cultivators possessed a slightly more powerful physique, granted by their strong blood vitality.

Young nobles and misses were getting killed left and right, and their blood was absorbed by blood-reinforced weapons.

The hurried footsteps of palace guards could be heard as they arrived at the scene, but the strongest of the group was only at 3 stars, two levels weaker than the strongest member of the Bloodfiend Sect present.

Similar chaos was breaking out in other districts.

Out of nowhere, dozens of enemies had appeared in their Capital. So many bloodsuckers had been hidden right under their noses.

After resolving this issue, a Capital-wide heavy inspection is required to flush out the remaining rats. Evidently, there were hidden passageways and rooms they have no knowledge of in the Upper District.

"I need to help them." Leon voiced objectively. Rage was still burning in his eyes.

The palace guards arrived to help, but only ended up locked in a stalemate with the enemy.

Suddenly, the head of a 3-star level blood cultivator exploded as a jet-black spear pierced the cracked ground with a boom.

Soon after, Leon landed with a heavy thud and recollected his black spear and lunged towards his next closest target like a cheetah pouncing onto its prey.

He had always been tossing his spear around like a ballistic missile.

It had great killing power, but this was not the right way to use a spear that was considered the emperor of weapons in the Divine Realm.

With a quick swipe, Leon felled the head of another 3-star level blood cultivator.

For a moment, everyone had paused the battle to look at the new arrival. Leon, in turn, locked onto all the blood cultivators on the street.

He did not kill wantonly, but all these blood cultivators deserve!

Let all these inhuman fiends become sacrifices for my spear mastery!
