Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 672: Chapter 315: Destined

Within a day of the incident, the news that the Champion Agent had suppressed the enemies of humanity spread through the Church’s clandescent operations and with the tacit consent of Giant City, across the Spiritual Ability User circles of Border City.

Additionally, some enthusiasts dubbed the Champion Agent as undefeated among his peers and possibly the next Champion. Oh, considering that Champion Team One already has a mysterious Champion Inheritor, he should be the Champion of the generation after next.

After all, this feat was most impressive.

Alone, he faced a Fifth Sense Bloodsucker, several Chaos Eggs, and a hundred Chaos War Servants—and slaughtered them all!

It could be said that he was unmatched among the Fifth Sense. This perfectly matched everyone’s stereotypical image of a Champion.

Meanwhile, many experienced Spiritual Ability Users thought this achievement was somewhat exaggerated.

After all, Bloodsuckers lacked much rationality. The Bloodsuckers from the Blood God Sect specialize in close combat abilities as Chaos curvers.

Those Chaos believers pursuing the path of slaughter would twist into Bloodsuckers under the Blood God’s blessing.

Their close combat prowess was formidable, and no one who engaged them in close combat came out unscathed.

In groups, even high-level Spiritual Ability Users had been killed.

But if one found the right method, killing a Bloodsucker of the same level wasn’t too difficult, especially for those who could attack with long-range spiritual energy.

After all, the only advantage of the Blood God Sect was discarding all protocols and adopting blunt, head-on tactics.

Compared to the other three sects involved in stinky poison resistance, seductive desires, or dirty, conspiracy-filled hearts, this was already a good enemy to face.

Thus, these Spiritual Ability Users deduced that the Champion Agent had exploited this aspect to achieve such a record.

Although strong enough, some genius disciples could also achieve this. Whether it was true remained to be seen.

But one thing was certain: the Champion Agent would surely participate in the subsequent attack on the Immortal Palace.

He was considered half an opponent now…

The Jing Family, upon receiving this news, fell into a strange silence.

“Unmatched among his peers? A Champion Inheritor? Impossible!” Jing Jing crushed the teacup in her hand in anger, and the boiling tea dripped through her fingers, vaporizing midair.

In her view, the previous failure was entirely due to her own lapse. She was unwilling to admit Li Yelai’s talent and strength.

But this incident was like a slap in her face.

This also caused some dissatisfaction among the high-ranking members of the Jing Family.

Such talented and powerful bloodlines of the Jing Family were not pre-emptively aligned with.

If Jing Jing had gone to align with Li Yelai from the very beginning, after learning his identity, together with Jing Ji,

One as a grandfather, one as an uncle,

and had they glossed over the incident of that year a bit, and tweaked it—hiding the existence of the Divine Son—

After all, as far as they could see at the moment, the Li siblings were still unaware of the Divine Son and the details of that year.

Perhaps, they could have brought the Li siblings back to the Jing Family. Even if it was through deceit? As long as they could bring back to the Jing Family, they would surely realize the sincerity of the family.

That might bring forth a Champion in their family in the future!

By then, the Jing Family would have God Blood Ancestor, Jing Liang, and an unmatched Champion of the same tier.

The twin heroes of the Jing Family!

Together with Jing Lin and other core members who were growing up, the Jing Family’s influence would be even greater!

If Li Yunyan gave birth to the Divine Son, these strong members of the Jing Family could ensure the safety of the Divine Son, thereby allowing him to grow into a power capable of suppressing an era!

Jing Jing, oh Jing Jing… look at what you’ve missed?

The blaming gazes of the Jing Family high-ranking members only fueled Jing Jing’s anger.

Spiritual Ability Families were very concerned about bloodlines. Every member was subject to control and intervention.

For a talented member like Jing Lin, the family had long arranged a marital partner, and even secretly prepared many others to spread the bloodline.

Even those without Spiritual Talent but possessing Jing Family blood were high-ranking members of certain merchant teams or family businesses.

Although they enjoyed wealth and status far beyond ordinary people, their families were also closely monitored.

Every child born had to be recorded within the family.

This was to ensure the family bloodline was preserved, to avoid any outflow of the bloodline.

Li Yelai and Li Yunyan, whose mother was a traitor who had fled from the Jing Family and abandoned her status as a Divine Blood Mother, were considered criminals.

Anyone would bear malice toward them.

Moreover, since they had never activated their bloodline power, they had no chance of inheritance. To anyone looking, weren’t they just useless?

“Now you blame me? What were you doing earlier?” Jing Jing roared in anger, pointing at a middle-aged man: “Old Seven, what right do you have to criticize me? Your methods with these useless ones have been far nastier than mine!”

The Lord of the Valiant Banners, Jing Xuan, intervened, “Enough, it’s too late to discuss this now. Since we couldn’t align with him before, we can continue trying.”

“The title of Champion carries weight. It would be best if he returns to the family… if not, then let it be,” Jing Xuan said calmly with a smile. “This event still doesn’t qualify as unmatched among his peers. After all, that reputation was fought for by the past Champions. It’s not absolute…”

“And even if it truly was a matter of being unmatched among his peers, that’s only below the Sixth Sense.”

The high-ranking members nodded slightly at these words. Unmatched within the Fifth Sense, how would they fare against the Sixth Sense?

Moreover, they also had the God Blood Ancestor.

This was the truly undefeated person of the same tier!
