Chapter 2387 2361 Dead Beast (Three More)
Chapter 2387: Chapter 2361: Dead Beast! (Three More) Chapter 2387: Chapter 2361: Dead Beast! (Three More) After all, losing martial arts resources wasn’t the end of the world; they could be earned again, accumulated over time. But if Ye Chen didn’t die this time, they wouldn’t even be able to save their own lives! What use would those resources be then?
As long as they were still alive, even if their families, the Xu family and Xiang Family, fell out of the ranks of the Ten Great Families, they would still remain top-tier noble households! There would still be a chance for a comeback!
Moreover, what mattered most was that they all desperately wanted Ye Chen to die!
Luo Wen took a sip of the supreme-grade spirit wine and looked scornfully at the group, “Arrogant? Ha, arrogant in front of a Sealed Gate trash in the presence of someone from the Great Void? That could only happen in this wilderness of yours.”
The faces of Xu Tian and the others changed slightly, and they couldn’t help feeling a bit displeased. They had spent their entire family’s wealth to invite Luo Wen, treating him with the utmost hospitality, but was this the attitude he reciprocated with?
Not to mention respect, he didn’t even bother to hide his disdain for them!
After all, they also counted among the strongest martial artists of the Lingwu Continent; when had they ever been treated this way?
Xu Yi could scarcely hold back and said, “Young Master Luo, this Ye Chen is not as simple as you think! His strength is extremely terrifying, and it even surpasses the Great Void! You should still be cautious!”
Xu Tian turned pale and quickly interjected, “Second brother! Hold your tongue!”
Luo Wen was famously bad-tempered within the Heavenly Lightning Sect and couldn’t stand being contradicted!
Sure enough, Luo Wen looked at Xu Yi with a playful expression, “Cautious? Are you telling this young master to be cautious of Sealed Gate trash!?”
As he spoke, Luo Wen’s face suddenly darkened, and his voice turned ice-cold by three degrees. The powerful aura of the Great Void surged wildly around him and whooshed towards Xu Yi!
Luo Wen might be at the fourth-level Supreme Emperor realm of the Great Void, but he came from the Divine Kingdom; his strength allowed him to fight beyond his level!
The pupils of the four early-stage Great Void powerhouses narrowed, and before they could even react, Xu Yi screamed in agony, sent flying backward, vomiting fresh blood!
The others, looking at Xu Yi barely clinging to life, forgot even to breathe! They wore expressions of utmost shock.
Was this real?
Even though Luo Wen was almost at their level, could merely his aura seriously injure someone of the same rank?
Even though they knew Luo Wen was strong, unimaginably strong, this was still too terrifying, wasn’t it? Was this the might of a Divine Kingdom’s genius?
Everyone couldn’t help but swallow nervously, fearing that even if Luo Wen were merely an early-stage Great Void being, he could easily crush them. The Martial Dao of the Divine Kingdom was overwhelmingly powerful.
Luo Wen slowly sipped his wine, looking down on Xu Yi with utter contempt, “Does this young master need a piece of trash like you to tell me to be careful?”
Although Luo Wen had agreed to help the Xu family in exchange for those martial cultivation resources, deep down he held no respect for anyone from the Lingwu Continent.
In fact, he barely considered the people of the Lingwu as human, treating them more like a lower race, only fit to be slaves of the Divine Kingdom’s people.
Originally, when Xu Yi had contradicted him, in Luo Wen’s eyes, that was a sin worthy of slaughtering the Xu family, even the Xiang Family, to near extinction.
However, if he did so, it would undoubtedly leave a pretext for repercussions in the Divine Kingdom that might impact his future, and what’s more troublesome, it might provoke the Divine Kingdom’s envoys.
Thus, under normal circumstances, the people of the Divine Kingdom wouldn’t go on a massacre on the Lingwu Continent; to obtain benefits, they would usually trade with the people of the Lingwu.
Furthermore, even if killing a Sealed Gate being meant acquiring all of the two great families’ resources, why waste time crushing a bunch of ants?
At that moment, Xu Tian came to his senses and hurriedly said to Xu Yi, who was groaning on the ground, “Second brother! Hurry up and apologize to Young Master Luo!”
Xu Yi’s face was extremely pale, but he managed to stagger to his feet. After a moment’s hesitation, he actually knelt before Luo Wen and said,
“I’m sorry, Young Master Luo, please don’t take offense. I was like a frog in a well, ignorant and blind. With your strength, Young Master Luo, that Ye Chen, no matter how monstrous, is nothing but an ant…”
Luo Wen’s expression relaxed slightly as he waved his hand nonchalantly and said, “As long as you know, there’s a world of difference between my strength and yours. The Divine Kingdom’s Void and the Lingwu Continent’s Void are simply not on the same level. Don’t use your standards to judge my strength.”
Xu Yi took his seat again. Although the Xu family’s honor had been thoroughly trampled just now, there was still a hint of excitement on everyone’s faces!
Why?
The reason was simple: the stronger Luo Wen, the more miserably Ye Chen would die!
Originally, due to Ye Chen’s strength, they had some doubts about whether Luo Wen could actually kill Ye Chen or not, but now they were completely at ease!
And if Ye Chen were to die, their families, their status, would be basically secured…
As for face? Can face be eaten like food?
Besides, who’s to say they wouldn’t have the chance to obtain Ye Chen’s bloodline power? That would truly be a blessing in disguise!
Just then, a servant outside the door called out loudly, “Young Master Ye has arrived!”
The several people in the hall looked at each other, their eyes lighting up.
This guy, he’s really courting death!
Only Luo Wen continued to drink his wine with an indifferent expression.
At that moment, a figure entered from outside the door, it was indeed Ye Chen.
Ye Chen stepped into the hall and immediately saw Luo Wen sitting in the seat of honor, his brows inadvertently knitting together.
First of all, there was Luo Wen’s level of cultivation, Great Void Fourth Layer Heaven.
Secondly, there was Luo Wen’s aura…
Ye Chen, who had encountered the Divine Kingdom’s martial arts and experienced the Martial Arts Foundation, could clearly feel that Luo Wen’s Martial Arts Foundation was extremely, extremely solid, not on the same tier as the typical Great Void existence on the Lingwu Continent…
His eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of amusement. It seemed that Xu family and Xiang Family had gone to the trouble of inviting this person from the Divine Kingdom just to deal with him.
Xu Tian said to Ye Chen with a cold sneer, “Young Master Ye, you really do have the courage to come, I must say, I admire your audacity!”
Xu Yi chimed in, “But sadly, the more arrogant one is, the sooner they tend to die.”
However, Ye Chen remained silent, as if he had not heard their conversation at all.
Was there any need to say more to people who were about to die?
Xu Tian’s expression darkened, and he stared at Ye Chen and said, “Ye Chen, I’ll give you one last chance. Leave now, and we can write off our grievances. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave this place alive today!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen merely smiled faintly.
“Write it off?”
His eyes suddenly turned cold as he said, “Can the lives of my dead brothers and sisters also be written off like that?”
In an instant, the killing intent erupting from Ye Chen caused even those Great Void existences to tremble slightly!
Even Luo Wen gave Ye Chen a few more glances.
Xu Tian sneered viciously, “Fine, then go to your death! Release the Dead Beast!”
