564: Kill level 27
My scent wasn't burned away?
So, the answer is the second one, that it requires a large amount of flowing water or a sufficiently long time to dissipate?
Or perhaps a combination of both?
Chen Du stopped, countless possibilities flashing through his mind in a second.
“Where are you from, and where are you going?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Du knew it was a false alarm. It seemed the scent on him, which only the Yun Que Civilization could detect, had already been burned away.
“I am from the Itera Civilization, from the Land of Dawn Sector, and I am currently heading to the Liaoyuan Sector.”
Chen Du answered honestly; he wanted to know what the other party intended to do.
This Yun Que Clan member was only Rank 21 in strength, far from his match.
However, there were many Yun Que Clan members in this area, and among them were Advanced Martial Artists above Rank 25, which was why the other party was so fearless.
“What kind of rubbish Itera Civilization? I've never even heard of it. At most, it's just a den with a few Domain Warriors. How dare it call itself a Civilization?”
The Yun Que Clan member said with disdain.
As a Tier 1 Great Civilization, other Civilizations, except for Overlord-level Civilizations and a few other Tier 1 Great Civilizations, did not enter their Dharma Eye.
Normally, a Rank 21 would not dare to speak like this to a Rank 24.
But there was no helping it; he had a powerful background!
Coupled with the presence of many high-Rank Yun Que Clan members nearby, his attitude was naturally arrogant.
Chen Du acted perfectly, appearing meek and submissive, looking angry but not daring to speak.
“Since you appeared here, let me ask you, have you seen anything about our Yun Que Civilization?”
“For example, a Rank 24 Yun Que Clan member flying up to the sky from here, or if she was accompanied by any other Clan members?”
Ru Yan's Rank was 24. Just as Chen Du expected, all these people were looking for the culprit.
The other party later said some more things, but most of them were guesses.
However, to his surprise, one of her guesses was correct: Ru Yan had indeed been forcibly taken by a certain Clan member the whole way.
It wasn't that the other party was purely making a lucky guess; it was because this place was not the usual activity range of the Yun Que Civilization, so there were few reasons for them to come here.
“I'm sorry, I don't know anything about what you're talking about. I'm just passing by.”
Chen Du did not want to cause more trouble.
“Hmph!”
“Don't know?”
“Not knowing means you have no value, and having no value means you must die!”
After speaking, she opened her mouth, making a shouting motion but without emitting any sound.
Perhaps, like the scent, this was a sound that only the Yun Que Civilization could hear.
As Chen Du expected, after this sound, the surrounding Yun Que Clan members collectively flew over and surrounded him.
He glanced around; there were 12 in total, with 9 below Rank 24, and one each at Rank 24, Rank 25, and Rank 27.
The Yun Que Civilization members were quite large. Under the encirclement of so many, Chen Du felt as if he had suddenly entered night, and his surroundings instantly darkened.
“I'll ask you one last time, do you know any clues?”
So that's how it is.
Chen Du finally understood why there were no Clan members below when he came this time.
It seemed they had all been killed by the Yun Que Civilization in this manner.
Even if he provided clues, he probably wouldn't survive; they would keep asking until they found the real culprit.
Once the real culprit was revealed, he would have completed his mission and could rest in peace.
This kind of behavior was very consistent with the arrogance and dominance of a Tier 1 Great Civilization.
The first time Chen Du met Ru Yan, she also attacked him with a claw without a word, for no particular reason other than Chen Du blocking her path.
It was like going downstairs to buy something; you wouldn't change your path because of an ant blocking the way, you'd just step on it.
In the eyes of the Yun Que Civilization, a Small Civilization like Chen Du, if unable to provide clues, was equivalent to obstructing their work and must die.
To have reached this position so quickly, they probably piled up the corpses of other Clan members along the way.
Chen Du was surrounded in the very center, with the laughter of the Yun Que Clan members all around him.
They were used to such scenes.
They knew this Small Civilization Clan member must be very afraid right now.
So they would give Chen Du a few seconds as a buffer.
“Well, have you thought of any clues?”
This time, the speaker was a Rank 27 Advanced Aerial Warrior, also the strongest Yun Que Clan member here.
“I have.”
Chen Du said calmly.
As his words fell, a faint golden halo instantly burst forth from his body.
In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the 12 Yun Que Clan members surrounding him.
Before they could even react, a “snap” of fingers sounded.
In an instant, 9 Yun Que Clan members were disconnected on the spot and fell down.
“What's going on?!”
The remaining three were simultaneously startled.
The strongest Rank 27 Yun Que Clan member was the first to react.
“Domain! This is a Domain!”
“Judging by the color, it should be at the Rank 30 Pseudo-Domain stage.”
“There's no mistake, that was the Domain's universal killing ability!”
The other two Yun Que Clan members also reacted at this time and discovered something.
“But Captain, he's only Rank 24!”
Once a Domain was used to attack, one's life aura could not be concealed.
Chen Du's Rank 24 made it difficult for them to connect the Domain before them with him personally.
But the facts unfolding before their eyes forced them to believe.
“Be careful!”
The Rank 27 Yun Que Clan member was about to say something when he saw Chen Du's figure move.
He instinctively let out a warning.
However, Chen Du's speed was too fast. In their eyes, he was like a blurry black shadow, and a simple warning was utterly useless.
Their bodies couldn't keep up at all. This situation was somewhat similar to when Chen Du participated in the assessment during the Quasi-Warrior stage, and the Advanced Martial Artist teachers protecting them made their moves—they couldn't see the actions clearly at all.
Swish! Swish!
Chen Du's two swords, left and right, first killed the Rank 24 and Rank 25 Yun Que Clan members.
Then, he turned his gaze to the Rank 27 Yun Que Clan member directly in front of him.
“Damn it! You wish!”
The Rank 27 Yun Que Clan member still held the idea that he was an Advanced Aerial Warrior. Even if he couldn't win, it was impossible for him to be instantly killed without even being able to summon reinforcements.
However, he truly couldn't do it!
Buzz!
A blue monstrous cat suddenly intruded into his mind, and his already suppressed strength dropped further.
At this moment, Chen Du's longsword had already descended from above his head. He barely managed to see the trajectory of the longsword and instinctively overlapped his two wings above his head to block it.
Pfft!
The instant of contact, he felt a tremendous force from the longsword!
“Martial Skill with 49% Control!!!”
He shrieked, and as his pupils dilated, the longsword also sliced down unobstructed.
Pfft!
The Rank 27 Yun Que Clan member was taken down by Chen Du with one sword!
