BXBX NOVEL Chapter 672: We believe in Old Long!
Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, Lu Miao, Yan Ke, and Wen Di had broken their mental challenge. They finally reached Shi Yan’s.
At the moment they arrived, they saw Lin Meng being beheaded. Blood was still gushing out from her neck.
Shi Yan waved his hand, releasing the Soul Gathering Pearl. When Lin Meng’s head fell, he took in her soul.
Yun Hao, Yu Wan Jiang, and the others were dumbstruck on witnessing the scene...
Lin Meng was dead!
The owner of the Pure Land, the supreme master of the Pure Land in the Divine Great Land, was beheaded.
Everybody who had seen it got stunned. They stood motionless, not knowing what to do.
Lin Meng’s death was like a punch pounding on their hearts. This strike was hard to imagine. But it had happened. They couldn’t help but believe in their own eyes.
All of a sudden, everybody halted. The entire area, no matter it was outside or inside the city, was tranquil.
Shi Yan was calm, retrieving the Soul Gathering Pearl. He was happy, wearing a smile on his face.
He suddenly recalled the humiliation Lin Meng had given him in the Dead Soul Mountain Range. She said that he didn’t deserve Xia Xin Yan and that he would never reach her.
It was all because Lin Meng was the big mountain standing in front of Shi Yan!
And today, Shi Yan had destroyed this big mountain brutally.
The others then saw the Ghostly Spirit Sword floating quietly. It didn’t have any spiritual Qi anymore, turning into an ordinary weapon. Its strange, evil aura had vanished.
Where was Nie Ruo?
Even Lin Meng was dead. Would he survive?
The masters of the Pure Land and the Devil Valley, the two great characters of the Divine Great Land, were both killed?
It was impossible to accept!
Seeing the black light sparkle from the Soul Gathering Pearl, Shi Yan couldn’t hold his bright smile anymore. He laughed contentedly and said, "Fellows. If you don’t have other business to do, I think you guys better go back to the Ice and Fire Secret Domain early. Otherwise, I’m afraid I will have to ask you all to stay here forever."
Yang Tian Emperor looked at Xia Qin Hou. He saw the deep regret and despair on the other’s face.
After they had arrived in the Divine Great Land, Xia Qin Hou had joined the Pure Land, as he thought that the Pure Land would be the place he could lay his future in. He had served the Pure Land with his best. Even at the most critical moment when the Yang family had to face the biggest danger, he didn’t even send them any news.
He was loyal indeed.
However, Lin Meng was dead. The Pure Land didn’t have a master now. Would it still be the leader of the forces in the Divine Great Land?
Everyone knows it was impossible.
Without Lin Meng, the Pure Land had lost its soul. It was hard to reach the peak again. And Xia Qin Hou had lost his strong support.
Shi Yan had broken his support.
"Return to the Ice and Fire Secret Domain?" Yun Hao forced a smile from a distance, shaking his head. "I’ve thought about it, but I’m afraid we can’t go back now."
Shi Yan was bewildered. He waved his hand, signaling Yang Tian Emperor’s team to not be hurried. His mind flickered, reducing the power of the formations and barriers. "What’s going on?"
"The five alien tribes have controlled the domain. We... There are traitors among us. Perhaps they would open the domain. I’m afraid that our fellows who are staying in there can’t survive," Yun Hao released a long sigh.
The ones who didn’t know this news became frightened. They were all dumbstruck.
Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, Lu Miao, Yan Ke, and Wen Di had their faces ash-gray. They felt as if there was a bucket of icy cold water that had been poured on their heads. The heat of anger was replaced by fear immediately.
"So," Shi Yan felt funny, "...you deserve it!" He looked at Qin Gu Chuan’s group. "Congratulations. Because you were stubborn, your families and friends have become the food for alien tribes. You guys are really awesome."
Qin Gu Chuan’s group shivered. Their eyes were bloodshot, as if blood tears would roll down at any minute.
"It doesn’t matter to me. I just want to protect my little place here. It’s good that my people are safe."
Shi Yan’s eyes raked through Yun Hao’s group and stopped on Xia Qin Hou and Bai Gen Seng. The smile on his face became brighter. "Precursor Xia, precursor Bai, do you feel sorry now? You guys should have stayed in the city. However, you smashed your chance. Haha, interesting. Really interesting."
Yang Tian Emperor and Cao Qiu Dao felt incomparably pleased.
Xia Qin Hou and Bai Gen Seng couldn’t utter a word. Their faces were glum and grim, as they thought that this was the biggest humiliation in their lives.
"Shi Yan!" Yun Hao’s visage was solemn. "Only your place’s considered the Human Clan’s fort in the Perpetual Night Forest. I hope you can consider the whole picture and let us in. Otherwise, we will have to stay in this forest and face the massacre of the alien tribes."
"Let you in?" Shi Yan stroked his chin, frowning as if he were considering something.
Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang hastened to explain, wearing a solemn countenance, their hearts worried.
"Shi Yan!"
Qi Tian Oldie Long Zhu didn’t care that the medicines he had taken hadn’t been effective yet, flying out from the city center. He shouted even before he had reached Shi Yan. "You’ve agreed with me to preserve the flame of the Human Clan. The alien tribes have started their operation. For the future of Human Clan, you have to consider the whole picture."
Yang Tian Emperor and Li Zheng Rong didn’t say anything. They were waiting for Shi Yan’s decision.
Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, Lin Meng, Yan Ke, and Wen Di were all panic-stricken, as they finally recognized that they were all wrong. Only Long Zhu had a wide vision. It seemed he had predicted the changes and development of the current situation.
"People who stepped back three miles and have the cultivation base under the True God Realm can come in. I’ll try my best to protect you guys." Shi Yan pondered for a while then said, " Shuang Yu Zhu and Leng Dan Qing, and the people of the Ice Emperor City, Bei Si, Bei Di, and the people of the Banner family, Zhu Yi of the Wonderful Stone City, the Radiant God Cult, the Celestial Emperor City, and Fighting Union can get in now. The others who have believed in Old Long and retreated three miles, I will open the passage for you. However, you have to be under the True God Realm."
Then, Shi Yan’s thought flickered, as glowing passages were exposed. "The others who don’t meet the requirement shouldn’t get in. If you don’t care about anything and trespass our place, hahahaha... don’t blame me for being ruthless."
The ones who had their names called were cheered up. Leng Dan Qing and Shuang Yu Zhu were mentioned first. Their beautiful eyes reflected their ocean-deep affections. Their soft bodies slightly trembled, as they thought that their bitter persistence had been rewarded eventually.
Yang Tian Emperor, Li Zheng Rong, and Cao Qiu Dao stood at the passages. Thick energy fluctuated from their bodies.
"Oh right, Lie Feng!" Shi Yan patted his head as Bing Qing Tong had reminded him. He smiled, looking through the crowd of warriors to find a cold, arrogant figure. "Lie-ge, long time no see. How are you doing?"
Although Lie Feng was the master of the Devil Valley, his position wasn’t high enough. He had to stand behind Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang. Some elders of the Devil Valley also stood in front of him. Of course, he couldn’t step forward.
Lie Feng heard his name called, and was surprised, but he shook his head smilingly. "I should go with them. No matter what, I’m a member of the Devil Valley. You killed my teacher, so we are enemy. I can’t receive your favor."
Shi Yan was stunned, looking at him. He nodded and then said, "I understand Lie-ge has your limit. Alright, I won’t ask more."
Then, he extended his hand, pointing into the void. The Ghostly Spirit Sword floating next to him turned into a beam of light, shooting towards Lie Feng. "This Ghostly Spirit Sword has no more ghostly spirits. But, it’s the Devil Valley’s divine weapon anyway. Because of Lie-ge, I’ll return it to you. If you can refine the ghostly spirits one more time, this divine weapon can be revived."
Lie Feng grabbed the Ghostly Spirit Sword, his face complicated. He couldn’t help but sigh.
"Shi Yan, how about us?" Yun Hao beamed a forced smile.
Yun Hao was in the True God Realm. Besides him, Yu Wan Jiang and the other masters of the small forces were all at the First Sky of True God Realm. Although they didn’t go against Shi Yan, their realm was high, so they didn’t meet the requirement.
The masters of the small forces looked at Shi Yan, waiting for his answer.
Shi Yan’s face was solemn. He clasped his fist and then said, "Fellows, your realm is high enough. If I let you guy in, when something happens, it’s hard to keep the city from shaking. If you want to get in, you have to help me with one thing to show that you don’t have other thoughts."
"What’s that?" Yu Wan Jiang yelled.
"Those people," Shi Yan pointed at Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, Lu Miao, Yan Ke, and Wen Di, "...they are my enemies. As long as you attack them, you are my friends. I won’t be worried about you standing on their side, or that you will let them enter the city later."
This was a malicious move!
When one sought refuge, one must show their loyalty!
Although Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang’s group didn’t get along well with Qin Gu Chuan’s group, their relationship wouldn’t be so bad that they would kill the others.
However, if Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang attacked them at this moment, this resentment wouldn’t be solved easily later.
And only that way would make Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang stand on the opposite side to the others. Then, Shi Yan wouldn’t need to worry about them, as they wouldn’t stop him in the name of saving the human bloodline.
Shi Yan wasn’t afraid of warriors under True God Realm. Even if they wanted to betray him, he could kill them easily.
However, if he let the True God Realm experts like Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang enter the city, when they had other thoughts, even if he were the owner of the Utmost Eight Purgatories City, he couldn’t pay attention to them all the time.
The city center was where he had set up the critical control formations, and the energy source for the barriers, formations, and restrictions. If they didn’t prove themselves, Shi Yan would never let them in. He must be careful.
Yun Hao’s group was startled.
Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, and the others were enraged. The flame of anger in their hearts was ignited instantly.
"Yun-ge, Yu-ge, you guys still have another option," Qin Gu Chuan gritted his teeth. "Join us. Kill Shi Yan and his people! Then, we will occupy the city and control it to counter the alien tribes. How about that? With you two, it’s not tough to kill this kid!"
Yan Ke and Wen Di also advised them to believe in the seven ancient factions, since Yun Hao’s group wasn’t a small force. If he joined the seven ancient factions, Shi Yan’s group would find it hard to withstand.
"Sorry, but we believe in Old Long." Yun Hao pondered for ten seconds. After a silent period that could almost suffocate people, he said all of a sudden.
Abruptly, Yun Hao, Yu Wan Jiang, and some other True God Realm warriors started to launch their attacks towards Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, Lu Miao, Wen Di, and Yan Ke.
