Volume One, Chapter 381
The young man looked at Zhao Fu appearing before him and cried out in fear, "Outsider!"
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "I want to know a few things. If you tell me, I won't kill you and will spare your life."
The young man's gaze was resolute as he shouted, "I won't tell you! Kill me, and the Divine Maiden will avenge me!"
Zhao Fu stretched out a hand and grasped the air. An invisible hand seized the young man, its terrifying power seemingly capable of crushing him to pieces in an instant.
The young man wore a pained expression, his face flushed red, without the slightest strength to resist.
Zhao Fu continued, "Will you talk now?"
A voice rang out from the forest. "Let him go!"
Zhao Fu turned his gaze over and saw a delicately featured young girl dressed in red running out from the side. Smiling, he said, "I only need some information. If you tell me, I can let both of you go."
The girl in red looked at the young man, who was about to be crushed to death, and nodded.
The young man still called out with difficulty, "Divine Maiden, don't worry about me!"
Zhao Fu casually tossed the young man before the girl in red and asked in surprise, "You're that Divine Maiden?"
The girl in red first checked on the young man lying on the ground. Seeing that he was not hurt, she nodded at Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu chuckled. "I thought you were one of the Divine Maidens beside the Sun God."
The girl in red said, "Those are the Great Divine Maidens. We are merely ordinary Divine Maidens responsible for managing shrines in various places. Our statuses are worlds apart."
Zhao Fu smiled and nodded.
