Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

“Wh… What is that? What a scary sword! That’s a demigod level strength!”

Linghu Shuang gawked at the giant sword, feeling as small as a mouse.

“This is the Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation!” Chen Xiaobei snarled. “That idiot Lu Changwei is stirring up trouble! He wants to spoil my plans!”

Chen Xiaobei had spent all his effort and energy to stabilize the situation outside of the canyon; to prevent the Demonic Beasts from attacking.

This state of security had to last them three days so that they could escape this danger.

But Lu Changwei had put his foot out, disrupting the peace, causing the situation that was supposedly controllable to get out of hand.

“Hey, the Chen guy! Step aside!” Lu Changwei walked out.

A dense Water Ethereal Force cloaked his whole body, looking like an Aqua God that had just managed to synchronize himself perfectly with the water element. Every step that he took brought the Force of Water with him.

The hundred meter long giant sword floated above his head, ready to attack at his will!

“Lu Changwei! I’m warning you! Don’t do anything stupid!” Chen Xiaobei barked. “The situation now is hanging on a thread! One misstep will tip the scales! I assure you that you won’t be able to handle the consequences!”

“What a joke! I am controlling the Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation formed by one million people! This sword is strong enough to kill any Demonic Beast! I can bear whatever consequence!” Lu Changwei said bitterly. “You, on the other hand… if you don’t get the hell out of my way, you’ll have to bear the consequences on your own!”

Behind him, the crowd jeered.

“Hey, Chen! Sod off! Don’t try to stop our Master Lu from slaughtering the Demonic Beast!”

“Hey you, Chen dude! Don’t be a dumbass! With Master Wei leading us to destroy the Demonic Beasts, that means that you won’t have to die!”

“F*ck off! Or we won’t be so polite!”

Clearly, Lu Changwei arranged for the idiots with the worst characters to stand in the front line to put pressure on Chen Xiaobei.

“Lu Changwei! You really are a despicable bastard! And those ungrateful assholes behind him! Did all of you feed your hearts to the dogs?” Linghu Shuang scolded. “Earlier on, you were all like dogs which were about to be massacred, scared out of your wits! If it was not for Bro Chen deterring the Tyrant Dragon King, you would all be dead!”

“You stupid bitch! You are in no position to speak here!” Lu Changwei’s said with contempt. “Only power can change the outcome! I have enough strength to kill all those enemies and free us from here! What can the Chen guy do? Why should we stay here and wait for death to come?”

The ungrateful bunch began to shout.

“We support Master Lu! Only he can save us!”

“That’s right! Support Master Wei! Fuck off, Chen!”

“Go away or we’ll sacrifice you!”

“Step aside or die!”

The roar of threats got Linghu Shuang all the more bent out of shape.

Chen Xiaobei, on the other hand, was the calm one. He looked at the people jeering at him. “This is my final statement: If you follow Lu Changwei, it will not end well for you!”

He then grabbed Linghu Shuang’s little hand, ready to leave.

Knowing him, he was not going to stay and have his good intentions thrown back at him.

Since the group had no need of him anymore, Chen Xiaobei could leave without a worry. They could sabotage themselves on their own.

To Chen Xiaobei, it was a very straightforward situation: leave the canyon with his friends with the Returning Bracelet. If it were not for the one million people in the canyon, Chen Xiaobei would have already left.

The place he had marked with the Returning Bracelet was the secret space. Chen Xiaobei could not possibly bring all these 1 million people to his friend’s and family’s private hideout.

Chen Xiaobei was very disappointed with these people, and was ready to bring only the friends he trusted away with him!

But Lu Changwei suddenly flipped out.

“Motherfucker! You little piece of shit! How dare you curse us? I will kill you now!”

Lu Changwei had been itching to kill Chen Xiaobei since the beginning. If Chen Xiaobei had stepped aside like he was told, Lu Changwei would not have any excuse to act on his hatred.

Not only did some of the ungrateful brats advice Lu Changwei against it, they even began to holler.

“That’s right! Kill the brat! We were kind enough to want to kill the Demonic Beast and save his ass but he cursed us!”

“This brat is heartless! Kill him!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

The cries to kill Chen Xiaobei rose, as if Chen Xiaobei was not human but a Demonic Beast.

When the Demonic Beasts saw this, they began to laugh hysterically.

“Those humans look like they are fighting amongst themselves!” a dark purple giant python said.

“Human beings are like that! Always fighting amongst themselves over the smallest matters!” A black giant ape said. “You honor, should we take this opportunity to attack?”

The Tyrant Dragon King shook its head. “No! We don’t have to do anything! We’ll just stay here and watch! I want to see how capable this Chen guy is!”

“I think that this kid is actually not that strong. The painting’s the one that’s strong!” the mantis said.

“The bugger that just came out is pretty strong too! That giant aqua sword is at demigod level!” The black ape said, “Once they fight, it would be a struggle between chaos and calmness, no matter who wins, we would benefit from their dispute!”

“That’s right! That’s exactly right!” The Tyrant Dragon King laughed.

Zing!

Lu Changwei actually made the first move, and made the giant aqua sword swing down at Chen Xiaobei.

“We’re dead… We’re really dead this time…” Linghu Shuang’s pupils shrunk, and her heart froze inside her chest.

The sword was coming down at a demigod’s speed! At the distance where they standing, there was no way Chen Xiaobei could dodge it nor fight back.

“Hey, brat! Go to hell! Hahaha!” Lu Changwei burst out laughing; his hope of killing Chen Xiaobei finally coming true.

But Chen Xiaobei was completely unfazed. He withdrew the Blood God’s Deity-Killing painting in one hand, and pulled Linghu Shuang into his embrace with the other.

Even as the giant aqua sword was right before his eyes, Chen Xiaobei was calm as he caressed Linghu Shuang’s head and said to her in a gentle voice, “Silly girl, don’t be afraid!”
