Warrior's Promise

The aura of the Star Beast’s heart was overbearing and it made one feel oppressed. The ordinary Low-rank Supreme Being would not have the guts to go near it.

Many blood vessels were connected to the heart and it supplied Qi and blood to the heart perpetually.

Blood gathered at the center of the heart and the aura was imposing. It contained the Blood Essence of the Star Beast.

A black pearl was floating in the Blood Essence and it was about the size of a grain. It was inconspicuous.

There was no aura from the pearl and it looked like an ordinary object.

However, the black pearl contained a special Rule which was the Rules of Concealment. The Rules of Concealment hid the black pearl from the people and even the Supreme Beings would not have noticed it even if it were before their eyes. There was a small Spacial Device in the black pearl with a piece of grassland about the radius of 500 kilometers.

29 Supremes were gathered at the center of the grassland.

Among those people were young men, middle-aged men, and middle-aged women.

The leader was a man in a black robe with a hood over his head.

He was young and had an evil look. His eyes were narrow and he had a sickly look which made him look horrifying. “Fu Qian, how well are you recovering?”

One of them asked as they sat around the youth in the black robe.

All of them looked grave and they were full of anxiety.

“50 percent!” Fu Qian replied with his eyes shut and he remained seated like an old sage. “50 percent is good enough!” “That’s right!”

“Fu Qian, focus on regaining your strength. You are the key to our survival!”

Everyone commented and they looked dismayed. They had been captured by Tai Ying Sovereign to become live targets at the Headquarters Selection and they were enraged and aggrieved.

Fortunately, Fu Qian was a gifted genius and he had been captured as well. He might be able to save them.

“How long has Shi Mang been out?”

Fu Qian opened his eyes and asked.

“About six hours!”

“I don’t think he will be coming back!”

“He should be dead!”

Everyone commented with a sigh. Shi Mang was the man in the hemp top. He was sent to check on the situation but he had not returned.

“Fu Qian, do you think we can survive?” A middle-aged man asked Fu Qian.

“It’s hard to say!” Fu Qian shook his head. He did not have any confidence.

If the disciples from the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance could not find them, the Selection would go on. It would not end until all of them had been found.

“It is a matter of time before they find us. The question is, what should we do after they have found us?” A middle-aged woman said with a

sigh.

Although all of them were Supremes and they were powerful, they were unable to contend with so many Supreme Beings.

“Even if it kills me, I must kill those people. I must make the disciples of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance pay the price with their blood!” A burly youth said grudgingly.

“Don’t give up. There’s still hope for us!” Fu Qian said flatly as he squinted his eyes.

“Fu Qian, what do you have in mind?” The Supremes asked. They were willing to listen to Fu Qian.

After all, Fu Qian was far more powerful than them and he was a disciple of the Sky Ridge Star Alliance.

His reputation as the Young Master of Death had traveled far and wide.

“There are two options!” Fu Qian said.

All of them were silent as they fixed their gaze on Fu Qian. They were waiting for him to tell them the way out as it concerned their survival.

“The first option is to capture a few gifted geniuses from among the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance and bind their lives to ours. In this way, the disciples and elders, and even Tai Ying Sovereign will not kill us!” Fu Qian said.

“Is this... feasible?” Someone asked. Tai Ying Sovereign was a Kismet Master and he had incredible power. Would he be threatened by them?

“Since things have turned out this way, it is worth trying!” Fu Qian replied.

“What is the second option?”

“The second option is to accept the disciples of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance as our masters. By doing so, they will not kill us as it is as good as them obtaining the tokens.” Fu Qian replied. At that statement, the Supremes felt as though Fu Qian had thrown a bomb at them.

All of them became silent as they were stunned.

That was a good suggestion, but it was an insult to them. After all, they were Supremes and they could not accept a Supreme Being as their master.

Moreover, they might not survive by doing so. They might be killed after they got out of the Star Beast.

“You are free to choose between the two!” Fu Qian said grimly as he looked at everybody.

As for himself, he would not choose the second option as his pride would not allow him to be enslaved.

Thus, he would choose the first option and fight for his life.

“Fu Qian, are you going for the first option?” Someone asked. They knew that Fu Qian would not go for the second option as it was not only humiliating but it would not guarantee their survival.

“That’s right!” Fu Qian nodded.

“I am going for the first option as well. Let’s do it together!” “I agree with the first option!”

“Me too!”

“Let’s do it together and fight our way out!”

All of them chose the first option as that gave them control over their lives.

Moreover, they had gone through the tough times to come thus far. Although they wanted to live, they were not afraid to die. Even if they were to die, they wanted to die in a battle and not become somebody’s slave and be killed by them. That would be humiliating.

“Alright. Since all of you agree to go for the first option. Let’s work together and fight for our lives!” Fu Qian said. “Fu Qian, shall we wait for them to find us, or shall we attack them?” Someone asked.

“If we wait for them to find us, we will be waiting to be captured!” Fu Qian stood up and said, “We must attack them and kill them.”

Although they were well-hidden, as time passed, the disciples from the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance would collaborate to search them out. It was a matter of time before they were found by the disciples.

“Fu Qian, you have only regained 50 percent of your strength. Shall we wait a little longer?” Someone asked anxiously. The stronger Fu Qian was, the better their success rate would

be.

“No. We shouldn’t wait any longer. I will not be able to recover fully within a short period of time!” Fu Qian replied. He had been injured by Tai Ying Sovereign and his Spiritual Soul and Primordial Spirit were affected. He would need a few years to recover.

Even if he were to regain another 10 percent of his strength, it would take him a few more months to do so. However, they did not have the luxury of time.

“Let’s go!”

Fu Qian removed the black hood from his head, revealing his vicious face, and said, “Those disciples are scattered around and it is the best time for us to strike.”

“Alright!”

“Come, let’s go!”

“Let’s kill those trash from the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance!”

Everybody shouted. All of them left the Spacial Device and appeared outside the black pearl, and there were 29 of them.

Fu Qian put away the black pearl and flew with the rest of them along the blood vessel at the Beast’s heart and they got out in no time.

Bloodshed was about to take place in the Star Beast’s body and many people would be killed.
