Crimson blood rapidly dissolved on Jing Xi's chest. The Primordial Energy released by Jing Yan entered Jing Xi's body in an instant, wiping out his vitality in the blink of an eye.
Jing Yan did not let Jing Xi die too painfully.
Although Jing Xi was nothing more than trash and a scoundrel, he was still a member of the Jing Family. Jing Xi's sins were heavy, and Jing Yan would not spare his life, but he wouldn't intentionally let him die in agony.
From the moment Jing Yan flicked his finger to Jing Xi's death, it was but the span of a blink.
Inside the Council Hall, Jing Xi's howling ceased.
"Jing Xi..." The Seventh Elder appeared sorrowful as he walked up to Jing Xi's corpse.
He extended his withered fingers to close Jing Xi's eyes that were still open.
"Seventh Elder, you've grown old too. It's time for you to step down from your position as an elder," Jing Yan said.
