Chapter 1779

Eira’s heart almost leaped out of her throat upon seeing Zhang Jue scarily talking to himself. She did not dare to let

out a single breath.

Zhang Jue sized Eira up right at that moment. “Where’s the kid that stabbed me with her sword? Who are you?”

Eira was baffled and stunned. “Kid? Which kid? I’m the only one here.”

‘Has this man gone crazy?’

At that moment, Eira still did not know that the person Zhang Jue was referring to was Megan.

Hmm!

Zhang Jue frowned as it did not look like she was lying based on Eira’s serious expression as his gaze fell on the

longsword in her hands. “Okay, you said you’re not related to the kid, yet you’re holding a sword before me. Why?

Are you trying to kill me?”

His voice was not loud, but it was extremely overwhelming.

“I…”

Eira shuddered and immediately shook her head. “Senior, you have made a mistake. I was thinking of cutting the

chains off you and provide you with a proper burial…”

Zhang Jue’s eyes flashed upon hearing that before his expression turned calm. He praised her and said, “Turns out

I’ve wrongly blamed you. It’s rare for someone so young like you to be so kind.”

Zhang Jue then thought of Megan as he bit his lip and emotionally said, “Who would’ve thought someone with a

pretty face like her would be so vicious?”

Eira could clearly feel that his murderous aura was much less than before. However, she was still nervous and

cautiously asked, “Senior, w-w-who are you?”

“Haha…”

Zhang Jue chuckled, but his expression revealed hints of desolation and loneliness. “I’m a person that has been

forgotten by the world. Kid, have you ever heard of the General of Heaven, Zhang Jue?”

‘Zhang Jue?’

Eira cocked her head to think upon hearing this in confusion. Who was Zhang Jue? She did not seem to have heard

of him in the world of cultivators.

Eira was still young after all. Her history knowledge was limited, hence she did not know who Zhang Jue was.

“I’ve not heard of this name!” Eira was direct as she apologetically bowed to Zhang Jue. “I’m not very

knowledgeable. Please forgive me!”

Uh…

Zhang Jue tensed up with an awkward expression.

Zhang Jue then smiled and waved to Eira. “Kid, you’re so kind-hearted. How can I blame you? Come, come. Please

help me get out of these chains.”

Zhang Jue’s face appeared kind and friendly when he said that, but his eyes contained hints of malice in it.

Eira did not realize the danger as she nodded and slowly walked toward him.

Buzz!

A sudden strong force of internal energy erupted from Zhang Jue when she was almost in front of him. The internal

energy formed a huge suction force that engulfed Eira.

It all happened too quickly such that Eira could not even react in time. The force was too strong that she could not

even resist it with her powers.

Eira yelled as she was forcefully pulled toward Zhang Jue’s side.

She felt a pair of huge hands clutched around her neck tighter as she struggled. Zhang Jue smiled while choking her

—gripping harder and harder!

Eira instantly had difficulty breathing and her exquisite face turned extremely red!

Zhang Jue’s face turned manically as coldly said, “Kid, don’t think I’ll be tricked by your acting. You must be

together with the other kid that stabbed me, right? Don’t lie to me because you use the same cultivation technique

as her.”
