Chapter 1562: Fearless

The Undead, because their essence, energy, and spirit have been drained, have decaying physical bodies, but because their souls are sealed within their bodies, what sustains their actions is the soul inside them.

They do not fear death, do not feel pain, and have no obvious vital points on their bodies; even if their heads are chopped off, they can still move, which is exactly what makes them terrifying.

These Undead Legions were moving forward slowly; they had long since lost all fear of life or death, and in their minds, there were only commands, just like robots, obeying their own commands to launch attacks.

"I have a sword that can slay a thousand armies and break ten thousand horses." Chen Yu grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen appeared.

Seemingly sensing the incomparably powerful fighting intent deep within Chen Yu's heart, the blade of Lichen trembled slightly.

Following a violent shout from Chen Yu, Lichen left his hand, and a ten-zhang sword light suddenly formed.

Hum—wherever the Sword Radiance reached, the air twisted because of it, and immediately after, Sword Qi permeated outward, and a gap was torn into the void.

For a time, dust flew everywhere in the large cave; wherever the sword edge reached, all life turned to ashes, and with one sweep of the sword, nothing grew where it passed.

And after this one sword strike from Chen Yu, more than two hundred Undead were almost all slain.

Ye Er was shocked; he let out an angry roar and charged toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu struck back with his sword, pinning him almost to the wall; where Lichen met Ye Er's body, bursts of black smoke were emitted, and after Ye Er struggled a few times, he turned into a withered skeleton.

Even until he turned into a withered skeleton, he was not reconciled; after all, the power he had just obtained had not yet been unleashed before he was pinned to the wall by someone, which made him extremely unreconciled.

But being unreconciled was useless; now he was pinned to the wall just like that, motionless, turning from a withered skeleton into a pile of ashes.

Chen Yu slowly exhaled a breath, he retracted his right hand, and Lichen disappeared between his fingers.

"These servants of yours are a little stronger than I imagined." Chen Yu smiled and said: "But it's a pity, in my eyes, they are still trash all the same."

Honghou stared coldly at Chen Yu, her eyes full of both hatred and anger; she also had not expected that after being released, she would encounter such a powerful opponent. She had wrongly assumed that in several hundred years, all the strong had died out, but now she knew she was wrong.

Because this world has never lacked the strong.

"Fine, I will lift the Curse on everyone." Honghou gritted her teeth; she had no other way now because the other party was far stronger than her, and might makes right, so now she had to hold back her breath and lift the Curse that should be lifted, otherwise, she did not know what this man, who was ridiculously strong, would do to her.

"Too late." Chen Yu spat out two words.

"How is it too late? You have already overturned my Undead Legion, and now I have admitted defeat, can't we start over?" Honghou was anxious; she was always the one who was unreasonable, but now she saw how unreasonable others could be.

"Because you only admitted defeat after discovering you couldn't beat me. I wiped out the Undead Legion with a wave of my hand, so that is why you fear me, right?" Chen Yu smiled: "I don't accept this kind of method. I gave you a chance, but you didn't grasp it well, so don't blame me."

"So what exactly do you want? Is this interesting?" Honghou looked at Chen Yu sideways: "Don't force me to go down with you."

"You actually know idioms." Chen Yu looked at Honghou in surprise: "Do you know what the meaning of 'fish dies and the net breaks' is? If you want to break the net, first you must have the strength to break this net."

Honghou was trembling with anger, but she dared not refute him at all because she truly could not beat the man before her. She gritted her teeth: "I have lifted the Curse on everyone; you let me go, how about that?"

"Not good. I put you back into that coffin, or kill you, and the Curse can be lifted all the same." Chen Yu said unhurriedly: "If I let you go, who knows how much trouble you will cause me in the future?"

"I promise, I will not cause you trouble." Honghou swore solemnly.

She felt somewhat aggrieved; even in her own era, when she fought against many princes, she had never begged anyone so humbly, but now that she had awakened, this world had slapped her hard and taught her a serious lesson.

"Your promise has nothing worth believing in for me." Chen Yu shook his head: "Because you were born to stir up trouble in this world, and between you and me, sooner or later there will be a conflict of interests. Since I can crush you like an ant right now, why wouldn't I just finish you off?"

With a wave of his right hand, with a boom, the Bronze Coffin that followed Honghou suddenly rolled over and landed heavily on the ground.

"Are you going in yourself, or do you want me to give you a hand?" Chen Yu pointed at the coffin.

Thump... Honghou didn't even think about it and knelt directly on the ground.

Qishu was stunned; what was this big zombie doing? This refreshed his previous understanding; one had to know that usually, things like this that had been asleep for hundreds or thousands of years had a very bad temper after being woken up.

They would wish to tear everyone they saw into pieces, but the one before him was different; she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. What was this situation?

"What are you doing?" Chen Yu was also stunned, feeling somewhat at a loss by this move from Honghou.

"I just want to beg you to let me go, don't lock me in there again. I was locked up for several hundred years; it is too dark inside, I am afraid." Honghou's emerald green eyes were full of sorrow.

Honestly, women are born actors; this statement is not false at all, just like Honghou's current appearance, pitiful and touching, making one truly unable to bear taking action against her.

And Qishu stood stunned to the side, eyes wide open, not knowing if he had been influenced by her.

Unfortunately, these methods were of no use at all to Chen Yu.

"Don't waste your effort; even if you act well, it is useless." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "No matter how pitiful you pretend to be, that wolf-like character in your bones cannot be erased. Besides, your emotional control is useless to me."

Honghou glared fiercely at Chen Yu, knowing her trick was not working, she stood up with difficulty.

"Yes, this is how you should look. You are Honghou, after all, a legendary ruthless person; why pretend to be pitiful and play for sympathy? Don't you think that is very boring?" Chen Yu grinned.

"That's right, this is my true self; I am not reconciled." Honghou said through gritted teeth: "I waited for so many years and was finally awakened, but why did I encounter you as soon as I woke up?"
