Chapter 485: Conflict Within the Building

Lin Ya seemed to have quite a bit of prestige in this building. His words directly eased the originally tense atmosphere, causing those adventurers who were ready to move to immediately restrain themselves. Although the hostility was still there, at least there was no risk of making a move. Otherwise, once a fight started, the situation would be beyond his control.

"Very good, you made a correct decision." Li Yi glanced around before slowly letting go of Lin Ya's wrist.

"I hope you can give a reasonable explanation, otherwise this matter won't be so easy to solve." Lin Ya said seriously.

At this time, Hai Li stepped forward and said: "The darkness has spread, and the buildings are constantly falling. We are also fleeing here. We didn't intend to make a move against you, but the situation was urgent and we had to do so. If we dragged it out and attracted the monsters, the result wouldn't be good for anyone."

As he spoke, he showed the mark on the back of his hand.

"Evil God's curse?" Lin Ya's expression changed: "You encountered an Evil God?"

"That's right. The Evil God appeared in the darkness to destroy us and cast a curse. We spent a lot of effort to escape from the depths of that darkness. If we don't enter the building quickly to seek the Holy Corpse's protection, the evil creatures will follow the scent of the curse and kill us all. We were also forced to break the door and break in here for self-preservation, so I hope you can understand. After all, our common enemy is the evil creatures in the darkness." Mei Ling also spoke up.

Lin Ya said: "But no matter what, you injured our people. This matter must have an explanation."

"We can make compensation." Hai Li said immediately.

Hearing this, Lin Ya's expression eased slightly. He said: "How do you plan to compensate?"

Hai Li was about to continue speaking when a voice rang out abruptly: "Lin Ya, you are too soft. A group of outsiders forced their way into our building and injured our teammates. It's one thing that you don't think about revenge, but you are actually shamelessly asking for compensation. What do you take life for?"

Everyone looked toward the sound and saw a blond man walking over with a group of adventurers. This person wore a suit of silver armor, and the armor emitted a layer of hazy brilliance, looking mysterious and noble. At his waist hung a cross greatsword, embedded with various gemstones, both valuable and possessing a mysterious magic power.

"Zhang Kaiwen."

Lin Ya said this person's name, while frowning with a look of vigilance.

Zhang Kaiwen ignored Lin Ya and walked to Hai Li and Mei Ling. He looked at the two with calm and indifferent eyes: "People carrying the Evil God's curse are destined not to live in this world. Why should we help a few adventurers who are about to die? Moreover, to protect you, we have to bear the risk of being peeped at by the Evil God."

"So today, I ask you few... to die."

Before he finished speaking, the cross treasure sword at his waist suddenly unsheathed. An arc-shaped sword light appeared, and within an instant, it slashed toward Hai Li and Mei Ling.

Hai Li was not weak. He reacted instantly, and the greatsword as tall as a person behind his back was immediately pulled out halfway, attempting to block this fatal strike.

But the weapon in the hands of this adventurer named Zhang Kaiwen was clearly more powerful. This strike slashed Hai Li's greatsword into two pieces, and at the same time, the formidable power directly knocked him flying.

Hai Li rolled on the ground countless times before finally hitting the nearest wall like a cannonball.

The wall dented and peeled, and blood flowed out uncontrollably.

"Good luck, blocking one strike from me, but that's all." Zhang Kaiwen's gaze was cold, and then he looked at Mei Ling, the cross greatsword in his hand wanting to slash again.

However, Mei Ling had already reacted. Her pupils shrank abruptly, and she immediately retreated backward, attempting to avoid the opponent's attack.

Yet, Zhang Kaiwen's greatsword slashed, but it slashed out a sword light like a crescent moon. This sword light was even fiercer than a martial artist's Qi, exceptionally sharp, catching up to Mei Ling in an instant, wanting to cleave her in two with one sword.

Mei Ling chanted a spell, wanting to display magic.

But it was too slow.

If there were no accidents, she would definitely die from this strike.

But the next moment.

Yu Chuan made a move. As a Soul Realm Evolver, his physical fitness was extremely strong. Under the soul premonition, his figure swept over rapidly, grabbed Mei Ling, and pushed her to the ground, avoiding this attack in a very sorry state.

"Caught up." He breathed a slight sigh of relief.

But before he could react, Ning Wu also made a move. She had already pulled to Zhang Kaiwen's front. Accompanied by the opening of her body's shackles, she kicked out a strike, which caused the air to explode, making a deafening sound.

"Boom!"

A dull impact sound, accompanied by a gust of wind scattering.

However, Zhang Kaiwen stood in place motionless, just raising his arm and using the arm armor on his arm to block this seemingly fierce strike.

This scene made Ning Wu's pupils shrink abruptly.

Was this person's strength this strong? Could he even easily block a strike from a Soul Realm Evolver who had opened their shackles?

"Strength is not bad, but that's all." Zhang Kaiwen's gaze was cold, and the cross greatsword in his other hand was raised again.

"Not good!"

Ning Wu's soul warned crazily. She smelled fatal danger, and her entire person pulled back at an extremely fast speed, withdrawing several tens of meters away in the blink of an eye.

"You can't escape."

However, Zhang Kaiwen's figure also disappeared from where he was. When he appeared again, he also appeared several tens of meters away, his tall body still standing in front of Ning Wu, the treasure sword in his hand getting closer and closer to her.

Couldn't avoid it.

Ning Wu felt a chill all over her body. At this moment, she could only watch the opponent's cross treasure sword fall.

But just when she thought she was dead, this treasure sword that was about to fall stopped in mid-air. Did this person hold back?

Ning Wu thought so, but she quickly discovered something was wrong. The opponent hadn't held back; instead, another familiar figure appeared behind Zhang Kaiwen at some point. That figure was shrouded in silver Qi flames, lightning interwoven, divine and extraordinary, a pair of silver vertical pupils majestic and terrifying.

It was Li Yi... She realized something.

Zhang Kaiwen was startled and turned the cross greatsword in mid-air to slash backward.

The sword light flew out, slashing several hundred meters away, tearing a hideous gash on the building's wall, but it was easily dodged by the person behind him tilting his head.

However, Li Yi didn't stop there, but raised his hand and punched with the power of the Divine Bloodline.

This time, Zhang Kaiwen was no longer calm. He showed a look of horror, as if he had seen a god-Buddha punching heaven and earth, shaking the world. His heart was terrified. Fortunately, he was not a weakling and reacted in time, raising his arm to parry this punch.

Bang.

The air tore open a streak of light, and then Zhang Kaiwen flew backward, hit twenty-something meters high, smashed the railing and wall in the corridor, and his entire person disappeared into a room.

"Your strength is just so-so, don't be too self-righteous." Li Yi said in a flat tone.

>

Not far away, Lin Ya had a look of shock.

Just now, how did this person suddenly rush to Zhang Kaiwen's side? He had been distracted for a moment and hadn't even reacted.

"Boss Zhang Kaiwen." The others inside the building were shocked and angry when they saw this scene.

They glared at Li Yi one by one, but fearing his powerful strength, they didn't dare to make a move rashly.

Some also immediately jumped toward the room upstairs, wanting to see if Zhang Kaiwen was alright.

But very quickly.

A figure rushed out from the ruins of the room upstairs. His armor shone with charming brilliance, possessing extremely strong defensive power. But even so, on his arm, there was an incredibly clear fist mark. This fist mark sank in by a full several centimeters, directly shattering a part of his bones.

Zhang Kaiwen had blood at the corner of his mouth, staring fixedly at Li Yi, furious.

"Still want to make a move? Come." Li Yi signaled: "My temper isn't very good. The next move, I'll send you on your way."

He hadn't even used magic power. If he had added magic power to the punch just now, not to mention death, at least one arm would have to be left behind. Even the armor on his body couldn't protect him; the Five Qi Realm's Heart Fire Qi was not something this mortal body could withstand.

"Do you think you can kill me?" Zhang Kaiwen said with a cold tone.

"What I say is useless; reality will give you the answer." Li Yi extended a finger, Daoist methods operated, and a ray of extreme light condensed on it. Just the jumping of the light made everyone feel a palpitation.

But for Yu Chuan, Mei Ling, Hai Li, and the others, this move was not unfamiliar.

It was this strike that cleaved the sea of hellfire just now, forcibly creating a path. If this strike hit a person, the consequences would be very serious.

"Zhang Kaiwen, stop. Do you want everyone to be buried with you? You are too arbitrary." At this moment, Lin Ya rushed out. He shouted loudly, simultaneously stopping the two from continuing to fight.

Although his relationship with Zhang Kaiwen was bad, they were, after all, guests of the same building. He couldn't watch him die at the hands of the other party.

"Lin Ya, it's because of your weakness that the other party found an opportunity. If we don't drive them out today, danger will definitely descend here." Zhang Kaiwen didn't appreciate it, gripping the cross greatsword tightly: "Get out of the way. I'll kill this person. I don't believe he can defeat me."

Even facing Li Yi's top-tier Daoist technique, he still didn't fear.

In his view, this kind of taboo means couldn't be used continuously. As long as he avoided this strike, or blocked this strike, he still had a chance of winning.

"Stubborn."

Li Yi didn't want to say more, wanting to display the Dividing the River to Create Land technique to slay this person and deter others, so that no one else would jump out to cause trouble.

But just at this moment.

An adventurer near the passage ran over stumbling, his expression somewhat terrified, saying: "Boss Zhang Kaiwen, no, it's not good. A legendary monster has appeared outside..."

Before he finished speaking.

A wall of the building shattered with a bang, and the flesh and blood inside the wall flew all over the sky.

And accompanied by the tearing of that thick wall, a blood-red figure bathed in darkness strode in, directly ignoring the influence of the Holy Corpse inside the building.

"Undying Sword King?"

Zhang Kaiwen and Lin Ya's expressions changed drastically as they looked at this monster.

It was indeed a legendary monster.

"An old acquaintance." Li Yi stared at this monster.

He remembered that the Undying Sword King had been decapitated by Yang Wei before, but now, the head had been reattached. Sure enough, this kind of monster with an undying attribute was just hard to kill, and he didn't know if the previous Hell Flame Demon had died or not.
