295 Soul-searching

Watching from the side, the big scorpion and Yuji’s hearts were beating wildly. “Has the Elder King’s strength reached such a realm?”

With a loud bang, the attack was blocked. Qin Chen saw a black shadow that was using a long sharp blade glowing with an azure light. The Desolate Divine Halberd trembled slightly, obviously shaken by the attack.

To be able to shake a quasi-emperor-grade weapon, the other party’s weapon must not be an ordinary magic item. It seemed that the assassins of Divine were indeed very powerful.

However, no matter how hard the assassin tried, he could not kill Qin Chen.

After all, Qin Chen had an extreme emperor weapon in his hands. Even if the other party was a God, he would still suffer defeat at Qin Chen’s hands.

This assassin was obviously not a God-realm expert. It was clear he had made a mistake. He wanted to kill Qin Chen, but the latter was also enraged and wanted to kill the assassin who was hiding in the dark as well.

The assassin did not show himself all this time, so Qin Chen could not seize the opportunity. If the other party dared to show himself again, Qin Chen would definitely force him out. Only by forcing him out could he kill him. Otherwise, the assassin might escape.

Qin Chen was already prepared, waiting for the assassin to appear at any time. However, as the assassin failed once more, he stopped attacking frequently. He knew that in this situation, other than waiting for Qin Chen to reveal an opening, he had no other way to sneak attack.

It was impossible to fight his target head-on, so the assassin could only hide and wait for the right time. After waiting for so long, the other party still had not launched an attack, so Qin Chen continued to move forward with Yuji and the big scorpion.

The other party simply followed Qin Chen and the others. At this moment, Qin Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks. With a smile, he looked in a certain direction and said, “I’ve already caught you. Come out.”

The assassin that was hiding in the dark with his incredible hiding skills still didn’t appear. He knew that Qin Chen couldn’t find him, but the latter didn’t have that much patience.

Qin Chen immediately poured divine power and the entire star field fluctuated. It was actually an array! The assassin had stepped into the array, and his figure was exposed in an instant, appearing in front of everyone.

Qin Chen stared at the assassin with a smile on his face, while the assassin thought to himself, “Sh*t!”

There was no way for him to retreat as Qin Chen had already locked onto him. The big scorpion hurriedly said, “Elder King, there’s no need to kill him. Leave him alive. Divine must be preparing something. Let’s interrogate him first and see if we can get some useful information.”

After all, there were probably many more hidden assassins like those from Divine in this star field. If they wanted to avoid or discover the assassins in advance, they had to capture an assassin from Divine and interrogate him. Then they would know the whereabouts of Divine’s assassins.

Qin Chen knew what to do to not kill the assassin. He immediately activated his extreme emperor weapon, and a terrifying wave instantly enveloped the level 9 Supreme Sage assassin. The assassin did not expect Qin Chen to have such a trick up his sleeve. With an extreme emperor weapon in hand, even a God-realm expert would probably die in his hands.

Even if he wanted to escape now, it was too late. Therefore, the assassin had no choice but to fight to the death. He gritted his teeth and a spear appeared on his body. The spear was his true weapon. His aura was like a dragon as he thrust his spear forward. He actually took the initiative to meet the attack of the extreme emperor weapon.

Even Yuji and the big scorpion were impressed. It seemed like Divine had a way of training assassins. Even if they knew they were going to die, they still fought. Then, Qin Chen stopped, but the terrifying attack of the extreme emperor weapon still hit the assassin, causing the latter to be seriously injured.

The big scorpion quickly rushed up and sealed the assassin’s meridians, then tied him up. This was to prevent the assassin from committing suicide. After all, they still had many questions that they had not had the time to ask. They could not let him die so easily.

Qin Chen looked at the assassin. The assassin’s killing intent was very strong. It was obvious that he had killed many. However, he did not expect to have picked on the wrong person this time.

“Explain,” Qin Chen said calmly, but the assassin did not seem to hear him.

Qin Chen looked at him and said, “If you don’t talk, I’ll just search your soul.”

If he searched the assassin’s soul, the latter would become an idiot.

Thinking of this, the assassin’s mouth twitched. He lowered his head and said slowly, “I’ll talk.”

The big scorpion laughed and said, “Wouldn’t it have been better if you had done this earlier? What is Divine doing?”

The assassin heard this and found the question funny, “You’re asking the obvious.”

The big scorpion was furious, “I asked you to answer, not to refute. If I knew everything, why would I keep you alive? Hurry up and spill!”

“Our goal is to find geniuses in this vast cosmic and kill them to prevent them from causing danger on the road to becoming an emperor.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Causing danger on the road to becoming an emperor… Why is that?”

“It’s because we have a son of God among the assassins who want to seize the opportunity to become an emperor in this era. We have to do our best to clear the obstacles for him.”

“Divine’s son of God?” Qin Chen was puzzled. “Then where is Divine?”

The assassin replied indifferently, “Divine is in the cosmic. We are everywhere.”

Hearing this, Qin Chen frowned. It seemed that although this assassin was powerful, he had been brainwashed. One should know that if it was according to his words, Divine would be at least a quasi-emperor-grade existence.

Such an existence was only one step away from breaking through to the great emperor realm, so how could they have the time to do such things? Killing Supreme Sages and God-realm experts was useless. It was better to kill those old monsters in the same realm.

That should have been the reasonable way to do things, yet Divine was killing geniuses like them instead. It was simply too outrageous.

The big scorpion looked at Qin Chen, “Why don’t we just use soul search?”

“I guess we won’t be able to get anything out of him. Even if he knows, he won’t say anything.” Qin Chen nodded and looked at the assassin. However, the assassin did not move at all. It was as if he didn’t care about his upcoming fate.

Qin Chen placed his hand on the assassin’s head and sent his spiritual will into the latter’s mind. He immediately received many memories. It turned out that this assassin was an orphan picked up by Divine. Then, the organization slowly trained him into an assassin and made him work for Divine. The number of geniuses he had killed was simply too many to count.
