Chapter 646: This Isn't How You Play the Game

"You can't do this, you have to save me!"

Seeing the Sword Intent on Shen Yu nearby growing increasingly terrifying, Han Zhang felt like a small boat in a storm at sea, liable to capsize at any moment.

He could fully imagine the sight of the Sword Qi in Shen Yu's hand descending; his own pride-and-joy strength would surely be unable to withstand a single blow, and he would be torn to shreds.

And the Broken Sword in his hand had just been secretly tested; sure enough, it was devoid of all spirituality, with not a shred of power remaining.

At this moment, Han Zhang even had the urge to curse out loud; you lot are too treacherous, even if you wanted to lure Shen Yu over, you didn't have to add only a tiny bit of power to this imitation Broken Sword.

Once this sword was swung, all its power was exhausted; what was he supposed to do now? Facing Shen Yu, wasn't it just asking for trouble for his old arms and legs to resist?

"Let me out, hurry and let me out. Whatever price you want me to pay, as long as you let me live, I'll agree to anything!"

"Hahaha!" Hearing Han Zhang shout such cowardly words, Du Xiyin couldn't help but laugh out loud, though her smile was filled with endless indifference.

"I heard that you, Han Zhang, were once a hero who feared neither Life and Death, I never expected that one day you would be fawning and begging for your life!"

"It's a pity, you're already useless. You said it yourself, that is Shen Yu; even we wouldn't dare to easily engage him head-on. So, we can only say we're sorry!"

"Wait, wait!" Stepping backward, Han Zhang hurriedly shouted, "Doesn't your Ping Tower claim that as long as one can pay the price, all wishes can be fulfilled?"

"I can trade with you, tell me your conditions, I will agree to anything!"

"Our Ping Tower does indeed claim that as long as the price is paid, anything can be done. But you right now are just a stray dog with nothing, you can't afford anything."

"The transaction cannot be completed because of this, what can we do?"

"That's clearly not what you said!" Shen Yu was getting closer and closer, Han Zhang's face was already drenched in cold sweat, and his voice grew increasingly urgent.

"Back when you wanted me to bring Mu Zishan's Broken Sword, you promised me; you can't do this, what about Ping Tower's reputation!"

"Reputation? Ha!" Looking coldly at the nearly groveling Han Zhang inside, Du Xiyin just sneered; she loved the look of people struggling in their death throes.

The more Han Zhang struggled and the more terrified he became, the more excited she felt.

"Ping Tower's reputation is something we bestowed upon it; if we don't want this reputation anymore, then there is no need for it to exist. Besides, we have already finished what we wanted to do; as for whether Ping Tower exists or not, what does it matter?"

"Furthermore, if Ping Tower's reputation is lost, we can just build a High Tower, Low Tower, etc., at any time; we can have any organization we want whenever we want."

"You, you lot!"

"Now that Shen Yu has taken the bait, you are already useless!" Continuing to look at him coldly, as if she were not looking at a person, but at a weed, a piece of trash to be discarded at will.

Du Xiyin licked her lips, but the smile at the corners of her eyes made one's hair stand on end.

"Even if Shen Yu doesn't kill you, we want to swallow you up!"

"Besides, why do you think Shen Yu has been delaying killing you? He is hoping we will open the Great Array and let you out; at that time, the Great Array will be affected to some degree, and might even crack open a gap."

"And he, Shen Yu, would take advantage of this opportunity to find a way to escape!"

"So we definitely cannot let you out; rest assured, your sacrifice will not be meaningless!"

"Pah, who the hell wants to sacrifice themselves for you." At this moment, Han Zhang completely gave up hope; they knew that these two unreliable people outside would absolutely never let them leave.

Looking back at the murderous Shen Yu, Han Zhang hurriedly changed his target and begged bitterly, "Lord Shen, can you spare my life? I just want to live."

"I didn't expect them to lie to me, nor did I think that one slip would lead to eternal regret. I am willing to make amends for my mistakes, I am willing to perform meritorious service to atone for my crimes!"

"Heh, what do you think?" Having reached this point, Shen Yu no longer held back; he swung the sword in his hand heavily, and the terrifying Sword Qi directly engulfed Han Zhang.

In the end, Han Zhang didn't even leave behind a scream before turning into a cloud of red dust.

Han Zhang was, after all, a hero who hadn't changed his expression even when struck by a dozen blades back in the day; who would have thought he would be so afraid of death now. Lord Chen Xing was right, the human heart is indeed easily changed.

And Du Xiyin was right just now; Shen Yu did indeed want to see if those two outside would let Han Zhang out, so he could use that opportunity to pry open the Great Array and retrieve the Mountain and River Map trapped inside.

Unfortunately, the other party clearly had no intention of letting Han Zhang live. He was just a discarded pawn, the kind you throw away after using; it was a waste of the tense atmosphere he had worked so hard to create.

When it comes down to it, one still has to rely on oneself!

After trying secretly a few more times, the Mountain and River Map remained trapped by the Array Rune, unable to break free.

Gritting his teeth, since that was the case, he wouldn't use the Mountain and River Map; couldn't he handle these two on his own?

And just at this moment, Du Xiyin flashed into the Great Array, wanting to forcibly take the Mountain and River Map, but was repelled by the power of the Mountain and River Map.

The next moment, Du Xiyin flashed outside the Great Array with an ugly expression, a hint of greed on her face.

Seeing this, Shen Yu stopped his previous secret movements. The other party seemed capable of breaking through space and moving at will.

That made sense; if they could carve the power to break through space into the fake Broken Sword given to Han Zhang, there was no reason they couldn't do it themselves.

In that case, as long as they wanted to, they could run away at any time even if they couldn't win.

Unless he could completely crush them or achieve a one-hit kill, otherwise, if the other party ran, he would only be left miserably chasing after them.

And there were two of them; if the two of them ran in different directions, he would be completely blind.

Therefore, he couldn't fight a war of attrition; if he fought, he had to hit the mark in one blow. He still had a trump card in his hand!

Staring intently at the two people outside, the next moment Shen Yu secretly gripped a Temporary Experience Card and crushed it; a brilliant light enveloped him.

Immediately after, Shen Yu felt infinite power surging from within his body, as if his cultivation had instantly exceeded his original level by countless times; the bottomless power, like a vast starry sky, brought him great confidence.

A smile played on the corners of his mouth, and his figure vanished from within the Great Array.

Du Xiyin and her companion outside had been observing Shen Yu the whole time, and were slightly stunned to see him suddenly disappear. They hurriedly activated the Great Array, wanting to use it to find his location.

But before they could react, Shen Yu had already arrived the next moment, his terrifying power sweeping away everything.

"Shen Yu? Impossible, you were clearly trapped by the Great Array, how could you possibly escape..."

"What can a mere Array do to me?" With one hand for each, he grabbed both of them directly.

"There is one thing you might not know: I possess Void Power, and all Arrays in the world are useless against me!"

"What?" There was someone in this world who could ignore Arrays? They always said these geniuses among geniuses were prone to good luck and often had deep fortune, but ignoring all Arrays in the world was just too damn lucky.

Grabbed by Shen Yu, the two struggled desperately to break free, only to find that their power seemed to have sunk into the sea, leaving no trace.

"No, your realm, your cultivation, impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Only now did they feel the terrifying realm of Shen Yu; it seemed even they couldn't sense it, only feeling a sense of palpitation and insignificance rising from the bottom of their hearts, making them feel vaguely uneasy.

It was as if they were facing an insurmountable mountain, a bottomless abyss, capable of crushing and drowning them with ease.

Who among us is actually the one who has lived for countless years? This isn't how you play the game!
