Hei Yun revealed his killing intent.

He swiftly attacked Jiang Chen, understanding that the person before him had seen through his identity; only by completely defeating Jiang Chen could he seize control of the body.

However, Jiang Chen was very fast, leaving only afterimages as he ran.

Hei Yun pursued closely, unleashing a deadly assault on Jiang Chen.

As expected of a sixth-stage Fallen, he was even more powerful than Granny Jinhua. His True Qi was incredibly dense, seeming inexhaustible.

But Jiang Chen knew Hei Yun's True Qi was slowly dissipating, and his stamina was continuously depleting.

Jiang Chen didn't know what kind of True Qi Hei Yun wielded. There were Flames, Ice Cones, Sword Qi, and even damn hidden weapons.

Jiang Chen used all sorts of flashy maneuvers, simultaneously unleashing Thirty thousand Sword Auras and the Heavenly Ruler Dragon with three hundred sword Qi to rapidly attack Hei Yun.

The various Sword Auras and sword Qi halted three feet from Hei Yun, unable to advance any further.

A six-stage powerhouse was a significant threshold.

And Hei Yun had just crossed into the sixth stage.

Although the Parasitic Beast had obtained Hei Yun's strength, it was not a true Fallen and couldn't compare to one. It was like a mortal obtaining a god's power but remaining a mortal.

Jiang Chen turned and pointed a finger.

The Mysterious Heavenly Finger shot towards Hei Yun's chest.

Hei Yun looked down at the blood flowing from his chest, incredulous. This is Fallen's Sword Qi! How could he possess it?

A wound appeared on his chest, but the flesh rapidly regenerated.

Jiang Chen said, "Tell me, what is it that allows one to obtain the power of The Fallen and the power of a Badge simultaneously?"

"Hmph, you're far from being able to kill me."

"My last finger strike didn't target your head precisely to give you this one chance."

"Go to hell!" Hei Yun raged, immediately launching an attack.

Jiang Chen turned back and pointed his finger again.

This strike once again pierced Hei Yun's left chest. "I'll give you one more chance. Tell me, and I won't kill you."

"Do you think I'd believe you?"

"Believe it or not is up to you, but you only have one chance."

After some thought, Hei Yun asked again, "If I tell you, you really won't kill me?"

Hei Yun was scared. He was a Parasitic Beast, but he also feared death.

"Of course, I can swear an oath."

"It's a kind of fruit."

"What fruit?"

"I'm not sure. I only heard Bai Yun mention it in Hei Yun's memories—it's a Red Fruit that grants the power of The Fallen after consuming it."

So after all that, he still didn't know what kind of fruit it was.

Jiang Chen pointed with his left hand, and his finger pierced Hei Yun's skull.

Hei Yun stared in disbelief. You promised not to kill me...

It seems I'll have to ask Bai Yun in the future.

And where could that guy be?

At this moment, Lisa emerged from the cave, holding a Spiritual Pearl in her hand. She glanced at the body on the ground and said, "I've got the Spiritual Pearl."

"Then let's go back."

「Inside the Elf Palace.」

The Elf Queen said, "Thank you for retrieving the Spiritual Pearl."

"It's what I should do."

"From now on, you are an eternal friend of the Elf Race. Feel free to ask for anything you wish, as long as it's within my power to grant."

"Are there any more Swordsman Skill Books?"

The Elf Queen shook her head. "No, that Skill Book was given to us by someone else."

"Who?"

"Bai Yun."

Jiang Chen, puzzled, said, "You know Bai Yun?"

"Yes."

"Are you two on good terms? I remember him being a wanted criminal, and you are the queen of the Elves in the Continent of All-Gods."

Could they have had an affair?

Wow...

The Elf Queen laughed. "That was a long time ago. When he gave me the Skill Book, he wasn't a wanted criminal yet."

"How did he come to have such a Skill Book?"

"I'm not too sure about that. After all, I am a Hero and not very familiar with the True Qi of Wanderers. He's a very talkative person; we once chatted for a long time. He has a good understanding of magic, True Qi, and Heroes. If you meet him one day, you can ask him yourself."

Jiang Chen wanted to ask more.

But the Elf Queen preempted him, "Are you about to ask why Bai Yun possesses two different powers?"

"Yes."

"I don't know either."

Alright, asking was pointless; only Bai Yun himself knows.

"Then do you know where he is?"

"I'm not sure. He is an enigma, and very few know where he is. But I advise you not to follow Bai Yun's path. He eventually gave up the power of the Badge. Perhaps, in his view, the power of their True Qi is far greater than that of the Badge."

"Moreover, the Alliance does not permit this. A person can only have one identity: either a Hero or a Wanderer."

Jiang Chen nodded. "Thank you. Do you know Hei Yun?"

"I remember he was Bai Yun's junior brother. I've seen him once, but that was a very long time ago. At that time, Bai Yun brought him here, and they eradicated the Parasitic Beasts."

Jiang Chen pondered this.

It seems Bai Yun came here twenty years ago and helped the Elf Queen take control of the Elven World. Hei Yun must have disappeared back then, likely possessed by a Parasitic Beast. That guy was really unlucky.

This time, Jiang Chen reaped a great deal.

His level increased by 10.

He even acquired another skill, Mysterious Heavenly Finger. This was a power of The Fallen, purely True Qi. However, Jiang Chen didn't understand how this True Qi skill could be used indefinitely.

It had no so-called cooldown time.

Doesn't it require True Qi? This was different from what Jiang Chen had expected.

Whatever! I'll find a chance to ask about it later.

Once the events in the Elven World concluded, the Different Worlds would naturally be sealed. Currently, the Elves were hunting down the remaining hidden Parasitic Beasts in the Elven World.

Jiang Chen did not partake in such tasks.

Instead, he returned to Xileruo World with Angelina.

Jiang Qiu looked pensive.

Jiang Chen approached Jiang Qiu and asked, "Is something on your mind?"

"The man we met in the Different Worlds was one of The Fallen."

"Yes, you should know."

"Yes, I remembered something."

"What is it?"

"My parents were killed by them," Jiang Qiu said, turning her head to look at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was astonished.

Jiang Chen had never heard Jiang Qiu mention this before. Their parents were killed by The Fallen?

Jiang Chen had originally thought they died in the wilderness.

"Didn't you say they died at the hands of Demonic Beings?!"

Jiang Qiu shook her head. "No. Back then, a group of black-robed men charged into our small town and killed our parents. They wore black robes, wielded Thin Swords, and possessed very strange Strength. They killed our parents in an instant."

"Then how can you be sure?"

"Sword Qi."

Alright. Sword Qi is a power unique to The Fallen.

"Do you know who they are?"

Jiang Qiu shook her head. "I don't know."

"What professions were your parents?"

"Swordsmen."

Swordsmen? Could it be the Life Alliance? Jiang Chen remembered the legend: a formidable Swordsman would emerge on the Hero's Continent, and this Swordsman would become the graveyard of Wanderers. That's why the Life Alliance appeared. Subsequently, Swordsmen in the Human World faced calamity, and the Life Alliance began to purge them. After a thorough cleansing, they were shocked to discover that Swordsmen weren't just weak—they were pitifully so. The Life Alliance then retreated from the public eye, hiding in various worlds. This was just Jiang Chen's current theory. Whether it was true or not remained unconfirmed.

Jiang Chen asked, "Do you seek revenge?"

"Yes. And don't forget, they were your parents too. Don't you want revenge?"

Jiang Chen didn't actually know who his parents in this world were; how could he remember them clearly? He was a transmigrator, with no memories of these parents, not even their faces.

"But you don't even know who they are. How can you take revenge?"

"I don't know all of them, but I recognize one."

"Who?"

"He has six fingers on his left hand."

Six fingers? That's an aberration! There can't be many people like that!

Jiang Chen nodded. "I understand. I'll look into it. If I confirm his existence, I will get revenge."

The feud for one's parents is irreconcilable. Even though they weren't his biological parents, he still owed them for raising him, right?
