Chapter 598: I Am Waiting For You To Come And Kill Me

Many Great Xia Creation-realm cultivators were dejected; a perfectly good auction had actually turned out like this.

It was precisely at this moment that someone placed a bid:

"Forty thousand Divine Spirits."

After that person's voice fell, someone else spoke up:

"Thirty-five thousand!"

"Thirty-six thousand!"

At this time, those driving up the price were all Creation-realm cultivators from the Five Clans, their goal being to prevent the Great Xia Creation-realm cultivators from winning the Counter-Fire Crystal for Chen Yan.

But after these few rounds, those with the strength to bid high had almost exhausted the Divine Spirits in their possession.

This auction appeared exceptionally calm.

Some people laughed, some people growled low.

Xia Long shook his head slightly.

Forget it.

He had already somewhat given up.

Great Xia bringing out the Soul of the Fate Chapter was a massive gamble by Xia Qi.

The goal was to seek a way out for Great Xia.

And at this moment, Chen Yan was the center of everything.

When you rise too fiercely, too terrifyingly, your comrades revere you, and your enemies will naturally fear you.

Yes, fear.

The Five Clans' Creation-realm cultivators were targeting him so intensely simply because they feared Chen Yan.

One Lu Xunyang had already left psychological shadows on the Five Clans.

With Chen Yan, who came from the Xunyang faction and was even more monstrous than Lu Xunyang, the Five Clans would only feel fear.

There was no helping it; it was already like this.

But Xia Long smiled.

It was merely an auction, could it really stop Chen Yan?

Chen Yan was not just one person.

He, Xia Long, was not dead yet.

Many people were not dead yet, and all could pick up a blade.

His daughter, only eight years old, was already enduring the Imperial Calamity, struggling just like Xia Qi.

Go to hell!

She was only eight years old!

To become a vessel for the Imperial Calamity.

And then, in a situation where everyone was certain she would die, to die!

With his daughter in such a state, Xia Long had no desire to live much longer.

His expression was gloomy, and a murderous intent was slowly accumulating in his heart.

Kill!

Kill until the sky turns dark and the earth goes dim.

Kill until even gods and demons cannot stop it!

Kill!

Kill this group of beasts, a group of livestock that only cared for themselves!

Ten thousand years of time had allowed you to sharpen your claws and teeth, made you incomparably noble, and made you view Great Xia as food!

Strands of aura were coiled within his body; though unable to break through the black fog, they were becoming increasingly intense.

He was about to advance to the Eighth Rank.

Very soon, he would advance to the Eighth Rank!

Xia Long was going to do everything he was supposed to do!

And then, go back to see his daughter!

Yet, at this very moment.

"Fifty thousand Divine Spirits."

A cold voice suddenly rang out.

Xia Long was still deep in thought, but at this moment, he looked toward the person who had spoken.

At the same time.

Across the entire auction platform, almost everyone looked at the speaker in disbelief.

"You... aren't you going to... to bid for the Mourning Grudge Soul Disk?"

Beside Chen Yan, a Five Clans Creation-realm cultivator spoke with difficulty, their mind reeling.

"I want to win the Counter-Fire Crystal to avoid it being obtained by that person," Chen Yan said coldly.

"You..." that person was stunned.

This Lu Prefecture Creation-realm cultivator's voice trembled.

Including him, it was within everyone's expectations.

What Lu Wuyi needed most was the Mourning Grudge Soul Disk, and he would certainly save his Divine Spirits to bid for the Mourning Grudge Soul Disk.

And then use his exemption-from-bidding privilege to obtain the Dao-Enlightenment Myriad Form Seed.

As for the Counter-Fire Crystal.

Chen Yan no longer had the ability to obtain it.

Even if a Great Xia Creation Realm expert managed to win the bid, it would still take a lot of time to deliver it into Chen Yan's hands.

Could it be that Lu Wuyi was already so selfless that, in order to stop Chen Yan and help the Five Clans, he no longer cared about his own growth at all?

Many Five Clans Creation Realm experts felt a chill in their hearts, giving rise to ominous thoughts.

"Hahahaha!!!"

A burst of loud laughter resounded; it was Lu Wuyi.

"Interesting, truly interesting. Losing to you, I don't consider it a grievance!"

He stared fixedly at Chen Yan, his voice at this moment carrying a trace of desolation.

Everyone glanced at Lu Wuyi, then looked at Chen Yan again, their heads in a whirl.

Completely confused.

What does this mean?

Who exactly is who among you?

At this moment, that Great Xia Creation Realm expert named Luo Wuji, who was still bidding for the Backfire Crystal, directly shut his mouth.

He was seventh on the Divine Spirit Ranking and hadn't won a single Divine-grade item before.

He had 22,000 Divine Spirits, and having cultivated three Martial Daos himself, multiplying them together meant he had 66,000 Divine Spirits.

What he had originally planned was to win the Backfire Crystal himself and then send someone to give it to Chen Yan.

But now, he stopped bidding.

He thought of a possibility, and looking at this figure who had been disguising himself as Lu Wuyi, he opened his mouth.

What the f*ck?

At the same time.

The auction continued.

"Fifty-one thousand!" Someone still spoke up.

Chen Yan looked at that person; it should be a Five Clans Creation Realm expert.

The other party was testing him.

After all, Chen Yan had been disguising himself as Lu Wuyi.

Lu Wuyi only had a little over 111,000 Divine Spirits in total; having just spent 60,000 to win the Enlightenment Myriad Image Map, logically speaking, he should only have a little over 50,000 Divine Spirits left.

At this moment.

The entire auction platform went quiet.

Everyone stared fixedly at Chen Yan.

If this person could still raise the price, it meant he was not Lu Wuyi at all.

That.

Was something the Five Clans Creation Realm experts were fundamentally unwilling to believe.

Xia Long's breathing became rapid, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

What the f*ck?

What the f*ck?

What the f*ck?

He was shocked, but he still didn't dare to be certain, only staring fixedly at the location where Chen Yan was.

Yet at this very moment.

Lu Jianxia turned his back, unwilling to look any longer, a sense of powerlessness actually emerging in his heart.

Everything had been anticipated by Chen Yan.

Chen Yan narrowed his eyes and directly raised the price:

"Fifty-two thousand!"

The next instant.

"Damn it!!!!"

"Bastard!"

"Chen, ahhh!"

"Great Xia, ahhh!"

"You f*cking, damn you!!!"

"So it was you!"

Roars resounded one after another.

In an instant, who knows how many people lost control of their emotions and were directly eliminated.

The moment Chen Yan's voice resounded, it was as if thunder roared in everyone's minds.

And the Great Xia Creation Realm experts were not having an easy time either; their emotions rose and fell sharply, making it difficult to cope.

"What the f*ck!"

"Heaven, ahhh, it hurts!"

"How could he be eliminated?"

"Perhaps it's because he said Heavenly God, ahhh!!!"

"This, what is the situation? Who exactly is he?"

"Stupid, he is Chen... ahhhhh, it hurts!"

Several Great Xia Creation Realm experts directly violated the rules, suffered boundless excruciating pain, and then disappeared.

"Damn you...!" Beside Chen Yan, that Creation Realm expert from the Five Clans was practically vomiting blood.

He had laughed through the whole event, been moved through the whole event, right up until the most critical moment.

It was gone.

"I told you all, he was a fake, but you didn't believe me," Lu Wuyi said in a low voice.

At this moment, the Creation Realm experts of the Five Clans looked at Lu Wuyi, their expressions all looking extremely ugly.

Someone growled:

"Isn't it because you're stupid yourself?!"

"You were the one deceived, you were the one with the most responsibility to clarify things, what did you do, what did you actually do?!"

That person roared:

"You idiot, why don't you just go die?!"

Lu Wuyi's expression turned icy:

"What is your name?"

"I won't tell you, you'll kill me!" the person roared.

Lu Wuyi was so angry he almost laughed:

"I won't kill you!"

"I won't tell you!" the person roared angrily:

"You idiot, fool, moron!"

"I won't kill you!" Lu Wuyi gritted his teeth in anger; he had to find this person, then break their legs and hang them from a tree for a month.

Yet that person continued to growl:

"I won't tell you, I'm not on your side, you really might kill me."

Lu Wuyi's expression stiffened, and the next instant, it grew increasingly ugly.

So it turned out this person was a Great Xia martial artist.

The next instant.

"Hahahaha!!!" Peals of laughter rang out.

Lu Wuyi was about to explode with rage, and the next instant he looked at that person:

"I know who you are now, don't let me catch you!"

Jiang Yuan, wrapped in black mist, stiffened.

The next moment, he stopped talking.

It couldn't be, right?

He was wrapped in black mist, how could he possibly be recognized by Lu Wuyi?

"I was joking," Jiang Yuan laughed:

"Just a joke, you wouldn't actually take it seriously, would you?"

"I will definitely catch you!" Lu Wuyi growled; he had no idea who this person was, but he wanted to make the other party live in terror for the rest of their life.

Otherwise, this hatred would be hard to resolve.

The sounds of rage and cheering gradually died down.

"Fifty-two thousand!" Someone else began to bid.

It was clearly that same Creation Realm expert from the Five Clans, who at this moment simply did not want Chen Yan to obtain the Fire-Reversing Crystals.

"Fifty-three thousand," Chen Yan said calmly.

"Fifty-four thousand!"

"Fifty-five thousand!"

"Fifty-six thousand!" The man gritted his teeth.

He was Yu Laiwei, ninth on the Divine Spirit Ranking, with eighteen thousand seven hundred Divine Spirit points.

But he had only cultivated three martial paths, so he could only bid this much.

"Fifty-seven thousand," Chen Yan said calmly.

Yu Laiwei stopped bidding.

And then, there was no then.

Chen Yan obtained the three hundred Fire-Reversing Crystals.

At this moment, cheers erupted from the Great Xia side.

But the Five Clans side fell into a collective silence.

Many had never directly fought Chen Yan, but this time, they truly felt anger and powerlessness.

Originally, the appearance of these rules was meant to bring a crisis to Chen Yan.

Unexpectedly, it had been turned around by Chen Yan just like that.

Lu Jianxia stood quietly, her expression complex, a myriad of thoughts churning in her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

These people hadn't even had the ability to force Chen Yan to use his true strength yet.

Up until now, Chen Yan had only spent one hundred seventeen thousand Divine Spirit points.

Most people thought Chen Yan had only cultivated three martial paths, totaling over one hundred thirty thousand Divine Spirit points.

But Lu Jianxia knew that Chen Yan was Ice Intent, and possessed a total of two hundred twenty thousand Divine Spirit points.

Which meant that Chen Yan had only spent half of his Divine Spirit points so far.

Lu Jianxia's expression was icy, but then she walked straight up to Chen Yan:

"Have you been lying to me the whole time?"

Her voice was icy, and at this moment, she questioned Chen Yan right in front of everyone.

Chen Yan frowned:

"I don't know who you are."

Lu Jianxia spoke coldly:

"You do. You are so clever, how could you not know?

And the things you promised me, have you fulfilled them?

Tell me, have you been lying to me this whole time?"

At this moment, the conversation between the two was heard by everyone.

But no one knew who the person who had suddenly appeared was, or what matter they were speaking of.

Yet Chen Yan knew that what Lu Jianxia was referring to was the matter of Chen Yan once promising Lu Jianxia that he would release the Four Elders of Lu Province.

Lu Jianxia had helped Chen Yan pass intelligence to Chi Xun, but Chen Yan had not done what he was supposed to do.

After killing Lu Cunyang, Chen Yan had seen all of the other's changes and heartbreak through the martial path.

Chen Yan's expression was calm.

Was he wrong?

When placed between nations, all is fair in war.

If he did not kill Lu Cunyang, Lu Cunyang would kill him.

If he told Xia Qi to release the Four Elders, Xia Qi would likely release them, but would be disappointed at the same time.

Letting an Eighth-Rank return to the Five Clans meant the death of ten million people.

Perhaps San Jin would die, perhaps Shen Yiwei would die, perhaps Jiang Xing would die.

Chen Yan had never failed Great Xia.

Standing on the side of Great Xia, he was not wrong.

He schemed against the Five Clans, tortured Yu Qing, threatened Yu Ming, and came to the Five Clans' struggle; he had done so much, things he previously considered base.

Because there were so many people by his side!

There were so many people behind him.

How could he act to seek a true right and wrong?

Who was he ultimately going to become?

A master of an infinitely towering will?

A Heavenly God General bearing the fate of a nation?

Xia Qi had plotted for many years, sacrificed so many people, and sealed the Four Elders of Lu Province in Jin Province.

If Chen Yan released them, how would the world view him?

But...

But on the other hand... Chen Yan was wrong.

Chen Yan looked at the figure before him:

"I don't know who you are."

He was momentarily speechless, finding it difficult to admit.

A scene surfaced in his mind.

Within a pitch-black corridor of malice, a woman named Lu Jianxia embraced the icy intent amidst endless despair, being corroded by malice as she walked toward death.

Lu Jianxia's body trembled; wrapped in black mist, those silver eyes were filled with dimness.

She looked quietly at the man before her, her shoulders sagging slightly, as if crushed by an invisible burden.

"I understand now."

Lu Jianxia lifted her head:

"I will kill you, Chen..."

Countless sharp blades struck; Lu Jianxia bit her lower lip tightly, her pale lips revealing her unwillingness as blood flowed out.

But she had already become a Standing Realm martial artist, her will powerful.

She stared fixedly at the man before her, enduring the intense pain, her body swaying, and spoke again:

"I will kill you, Chen Yan!"

Lu Jianxia was enveloped by emotions of disappointment, resentment, and hardship, yet she was not eliminated for the time being.

Her body trembled, and now she suddenly understood.

There had never been any such thing as an invalid card.

The two of them were both struggling with all their might.

The moment the intense pain completely eroded her, she heard that person's voice.

"I will be waiting for you to come and kill me."

That voice had clearly trembled for a moment, but then it became incomparably cold.
