Chapter 723 - Seven Fingers Race



Chapter 723 - Seven Fingers Race

Translator: Aran

Inconspicuously following behind the [Savage Army Demon Race] contingent all this time was a half-imaginary and extremely strange figure that resembled a night apparition.

It was none other than Ye Qingyu.

He had by now silently reached within two hundred meters of the cage.

He was ultimately still a little worried about the little girl and thus tailed along.

The peculiar actions of the experts had caught his attention. He clearly saw that the young expert had observed something on the girl\'s arm. As a result, he began to wonder what secret could be hidden on her body.

Concealing his aura, he maximized his vision and looked toward the girl\'s arms.

It was only at this point that he noticed there was something on her right arm.

A silver-colored common-shaped bracelet which was made from an unidentifiable material.

It hung loosely at her wrist, giving off a dazzling white mist.

If not for the white mist, this bracelet would probably not even be worth a small piece of common origin crystal.

However, the mist was not the same as that emitted by an expert or a formation.

It was more like a mark that contained the ancient power of a race.

Just as Ye Qingyu was wondering about the peculiarity of the white mist, the expert whose body was strewn with black vessels suddenly shouted at the tower from the midst of the contingent.

Ye Qingyu was shocked like never before by what he was shouting.

"Ge Ming! I know you\'re hiding in there, so don\'t think about trying to escape and come out!" the expert bellowed in a voice bursting with so much demonic power that even the mist surrounding the tower began to vibrate lightly.

The [Savage Army Demon Race] had set up noise-canceling formations all around the tower within one kilometer, and thus were not afraid that their voices would be heard by other people.They were not worried they would alert the other groups who were also hunting for the gambling demon that was Ge Ming. Unfortunately for them, they were distinctly heard by Ye Qingyu, who had tailed them at a close distance.

Ge Ming is hiding in this tower?!

Ye Qingyu\'s heart skipped a beat.

To think that the [Savage Army Demon Race] had also come to find Ge Ming!

A smile appeared on Ye Qingyu\'s face.

The 14th-placed felon on the wanted list of the Alliance of Domains, whom I\'ve been strenuously searching for, has actually been hiding in this tower? Haha, this is truly, as the saying goes, a case of finding something easily after wearing out one\'s sturdy shoes to find something.

He decided to restrain himself and see how things would unfold first.

In the distance.

Silence.

There was no response from the tower.

The black-vesseled demon expert seemed somewhat peeved.

He once again shouted as his demonic qi sent shockwaves, "Ge Ming, don\'t forget that the girl in the cage is the only other person left of your race. Your Seven Fingers Race will be close to extinction if she dies! My patience is limited, so if you don\'t appear within three breaths of time, I\'ll chop her fingers off one by one and throw them at the tower!"

In the distance.

Ye Qingyu was ever more astounded.

This girl is of the same race as Ge Ming!

The Seven Fingers Race?

The last one of them alive?

Many thoughts flashed across his mind, but he could not recall ever hearing of the Seven Fingers Race.

Things were becoming even more confusing.

The atmosphere outside the lofty tower became extremely cold and silent.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Ge Ming still did not appear.

It seemed that he had no intention of rescuing the girl of his race.

Ye Qingyu\'s inner yuan qi began to circulate as he stared at the only window on the tower.

If Ge Ming ultimately did not appear, Ye Qingyu knew he would have to step in to prevent those mean and cruel demons from harming the innocent girl they were using as bait.

A touch of chilly mist glimmered faintly in his hand.

Three breaths.

The demon expert who shouted toward the wall grabbed a knife, which was half an arm\'s length and polished using white demon bone, from the void with his backhand and walked up to the cage. When he was near the cage, he waved his hand to indicate that he was going to cleave the arm of the shivering child inside.

Ye Qingyu was about to step forth and rescue the girl.

Just then, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

"Hold it," a gentle voice sounded from within the tower.

The knife in the demon expert\'s hand stopped moving, while Ye Qingyu also forbore from taking action. Everyone looked toward the tower, only to see the high window being pushed open, and out came a flying strange, slender, and mist-like figure.

The next moment.

On the black rock surface below the tower.

The mist-like figure suddenly gained substance.

From amid the transparent mist stepped forth a tall and refined-looking man with a breezy posture and a delicate grace.

As Ye Qingyu\'s eyes fell on this person, he immediately recognized the latter as Ge Ming, the gambling demon wanted by the Alliance of Domains.

However, compared to the somewhat hideous and brutal image on the wanted portrait, the person in front of him appeared as cultured and elegant as a noble prince and carried a naturally dignified aura on his body.It was such that it was hard to associate him with the legendary compulsive gambler and murderous villain at first sight.

On the ground.

"Hoho, I\'d wondered who would be talking so loud. Turns out to be just a reckless bunch of Savage Army cubs." The man swept a glance across the crowd, looking indifferent and calm, as if he was taking an idle stroll in a courtyard and letting his thoughts wander.

Ye Qingyu could see the man clearly once he drew nearer.

With his amber-colored long hair tied behind his head, it could be seen that Ge Ming possessed dashing eyebrows that reached his temples, a high nose that looked like a mini mountain, and eyes which flickered a lapis-like luster. His aqua blue gown, made of silk and satin, was adorned with silver thread flower patterns that added to his dispassionate and elegant demeanor.

If the place was some other city street, one would have thought that he was an elegant prince who had just stepped out of a mansion.

However, the left sleeve of the figure in the mist was empty!

The Fourth Step Immortal Step realm expert, Ge Ming, had lost an arm!

In the martial world, when one had cultivated to a transcendent stage, it would take only a moment of thought to regenerate a lost arm.

This was especially simple for a top-level expert who had attained the Immortal Step realm like Ge Ming.

But, what power could be preventing him from doing so?

Ye Qingyu was a little puzzled.

Below the tower.

The red-bearded elder laughed instead of becoming enraged upon hearing Ge Ming\'s contemptuous remark, and said, "Hahahaha, such ravings. The mighty gambling demon of old has become a street rat hated by everyone, and has been hiding in such a wretched tower... Hoho, Ge Ming, these days of hiding haven\'t been pleasant, eh?"

"It has indeed been terrible, and annoying... that, quite often, a bunch of beasts or insects, too big for their skins, would come to disturb my carefree life." A poker-faced Ge Ming nodded his head as if he was having an idle chat with the red-bearded elder.

However, with slow but steady footsteps, he sauntered toward the cage.

Completely disregarding the presence of the other demon experts who were surrounding the tower, he kept his eyes fixed on the little girl in the cage and revealed a nonchalant smile on his face.

Upon seeing him, the girl\'s pupils shone with a splendor and the bracelet on her wrist became even more dazzling.

In the meantime, Ye Qingyu saw clearly that Ge Ming, too, had seven fingers on his right hand.

It seemed that Ge Ming and the girl indeed belonged to the same bloodline and race. Moreover, judging from the shape of their fingers and the form of the former\'s yuan qi, they belonged to a water-based race.

Ye Qingyu made a general assessment.

Just then, a hundred-odd meters away from the cage, at the spot where Ge Ming was.

Four young demon experts blocked him off.

"Why, thinking about saving her? Hoho, you can\'t be naive enough to think you can take her away today, eh?" The bull-eyed demon expert sneered as he blocked in front of Ge Ming with his glimmering and greatly agitated body which seethed with a powerful tide-like vigor.

"Why can\'t I? Do you really think you have the strength to kill me and claim the bounty?" The latter cast a glance at every one of the experts and then revealed a disdainful expression as he shook his head gently, saying, "I\'ll advise you guys not to make things difficult for yourselves. Give her to me without any tricks and scram, this way I won’t have to kill every single one of you."

The young expert\'s face was visibly furious.

"You... Hoho, so arrogant even in the face of death! Die!"

He launched an attack.

His surging power seemed to cause apocalyptic chaos.

In the distance, the red-bearded elder and the black-vesseled one instantly began to attack.

Following behind them was a scholarly demon expert who was the tallest among the contingent, as well as another dozen-odd experts who were each at the Immortal Step realm or above. They coordinated faultlessly as they attacked in mysterious stances at the same time, making it obvious that they had come prepared.

Their encirclement of Ge Ming was well within the plans.

Given the latter\'s strength, none of them would be able to beat him in a one-on-one duel.

Therefore, they had prepared to attack as a group.

The effect of the bounty on the Alliance of Domains\' top wanted list was completely different from that of the Black Demon Pool\'s bounty list.

Aside from receiving origin crystals and divine weapons as rewards, the entire race of whoever killed a wanted felon would thereafter be protected by the Alliance. That was why countless races of experts scrambled one after another to hunt and kill those felons in spite of the great difficulty and danger.

Taking it easy on one side, Ye Qingyu concealed his tracks and observed the situation.

Ge Ming\'s strength was considerably higher than what was shown in the information that Ye Qingyu had seen.

Several breaths later.

Ge Ming was able to cope easily with being surrounded by the dozens of demon experts. He pointed a finger in an extremely elegant fashion at the approaching figures who seemed unable to get up close to him.

A mist surged as soon as he pointed.

Although it looked soft and gentle, its power was actually extremely great.

A finger-sized hole was instantly perforated in the flesh of every demon expert who was struck by the mist.

These round holes flared up a glittering brilliance, as if they had been ignited by a transparent flame, that extended all over the body. If one did not break the affected body part off voluntarily, one\'s entire body would be burnt and evaporate within a few breaths.

Ye Qingyu\'s heart skipped a beat.

Ge Ming\'s finger can directly ignite an enemy\'s body?!
