Chapter 3337 – Dead Men Don’t Talk!
He knew who this man was now. That day in the Gate of the Divine Court, it was this man who had helped his ancestor Fuxi suppress that ancient evil demon, and when he had wanted to keep him there, he had found no way to do it. He had never expected him to show up at this moment.
But Songzan Kangying knew he had lost the strength to compete, and from the look of it, this guy’s strength was absolutely not something he could touch. That divine bell seemed to be his life-bound divine tool. It was so terrifying that even Sun Zhan had shrunk back from it, his face livid. That a Half-step Divine Emperor could have such divine might was truly chilling.
The Divine Golden Bell was only a phantom image, but only Songzan Kangying knew that behind that phantom was a real divine bell!
“The Eastern Emperor Limitless Art of the Eastern Emperor Sect. It seems you must be from the Northern Cold Divine Region. Interesting.”
Sun Yuan said calmly, staring at Jiang Chen, the gravity in his eyes plain to see. The Eastern Emperor Sect had once been a truly great sect after all. Although it did not rank in the Central Region Divine Land, it had been a mainstay among the sects of the Northern Cold Divine Region. Even though it had declined, no one would ever forget that the Eastern Emperor Sect had once had a supreme expert who stood at the peak of the Divine World.
Even though that was only a legend, and few people had ever seen him, there was no denying that the Eastern Emperor Bell was the very foundation of the Eastern Emperor Sect, and the ancient war god Donghuang Taiyi had been revered by countless people in ancient times as one of the supreme experts, a god who split open the heavens.
“You know the great name of the Eastern Emperor Sect, and you still dare to swagger around here?”
“What a pity. The Eastern Emperor Sect no longer has the ancient war god Donghuang Taiyi of the past. Without the Eastern Emperor Bell, it’s nothing more than a second- or third-rate sect. Without the support of the Eastern Emperor Bell, the Eastern Emperor Limitless Art can never reach its peak. So the Eastern Emperor Limitless Art may be powerful, but the two depend on each other. That’s the reason the Eastern Emperor Sect declined. A disciple of a fallen sect wants to rise on the great land of the Divine Land?”
Sun Yuan shook his head and said.
“Although the Eastern Emperor Sect has been in decline for countless years, the Eastern Emperor Limitless Art should be more than enough to deal with you.”
Jiang Chen smiled faintly and looked at Sun Yuan.
“Big words. No wonder you were so confident before. So you have something to rely on. But what you rely on is far too simple in my eyes.”
Sun Yuan did not think much of it. All Jiang Chen was relying on was this Eastern Emperor Limitless Art. With the Eastern Emperor Bell, the Eastern Emperor Limitless Art could certainly rank among the top ten peerless techniques of the Central Region Divine Land. Without it, it could only count as bottom-tier, not fit for any grand stage at all.
“Whether I can kill you, we’ll know as soon as we try. No need to say more. You’re not as lousy as he is, are you?”
Jiang Chen looked at Sun Yuan doubtfully.
“You—”
Sun Zhan was so angry his face turned livid, but at this moment he was held back by Sun Yuan.
“Arrogant and conceited. One day you’ll reap what you sow. Today I’ll put an end to you. I’d like to see how big a wave a disciple of the Eastern Emperor Sect like you can stir up in my hands.”
Sun Yuan said with a smile, looking completely sure of himself, as if everything were under his control.
“Showing off with your tongue will never get you onto a grand stage. Let me see just how much you weigh.”
“Actually, I’m pretty much trash, but it should be enough to kill you. Still, I’m curious too. What is it that you rely on?”
Jiang Chen said coldly.
“You can know it. In fact, everyone can know it, because next, all of you are going to die!”
Sun Yuan said domineeringly, his eyes contemptuous as he swept his gaze over everyone. At this moment, Sun Zhan’s eyes were extremely sinister as well. They had only one goal, to kill everyone here. Not a single person would escape alive. This place would be their burial ground.
“Could it be… that you’re from the Futu Pagoda?”
Ancestor Songzan and Ancestor Jueming’s faces changed, and they spoke in deep voices. They had already guessed, they just did not dare confirm it. Here at the edge of the Forbidden Divine Land, the only ones who would dare to butt into the battle between the Forbidden Divine Clan and the Forbidden Demon Clan were the people of the Futu Pagoda.
They had kept hoping these two were not from the Futu Pagoda, but clearly that hope had been dashed.
“You two old folks seem quite clever, but you’re still going to die. The Heavenly Lightning Spirit must already be just about worn out by you. For a so-called Lightning Mother Seed, was it really worth it? Hahaha.”
Sun Yuan laughed wildly, sneering endlessly at Ancestor Songzan and Ancestor Jueming.
The two of them exchanged a look and both sighed. Sun Yuan’s words carried some mockery, but there was no denying he was absolutely right. For a mere Lightning Mother Seed, the two of them, peerless Mid Divine Emperor experts, had met with such disaster. It was no different from buying the box and giving back the pearl. For the Forbidden Divine Clan, this would surely be a fatal blow.
Songzan Kangying could not help lowering his head too. This was the greatest mistake the Tuying Clan, and even the Forbidden Divine Clan, had made in ten thousand years, because no one had known things would turn out the way they had now. The Forbidden Demon Clan and the Futu Pagoda had appeared at the same time. It had caught them completely off guard. Wanting to change their setup now, they had no power left to turn things around.
“It really is them!”
Han Yan and Leng Qianqian exchanged a look. Their guess had been right. What Jiang Chen was facing now were actually two people of the Futu Pagoda. In the entire Central Region Divine Land, no one had ever dared to lay a hand on the people of the Futu Pagoda!
“Perhaps this is our fate.”
Ancestor Jueming glanced at Ancestor Songzan. The two of them had known each other for countless years and guarded the Land of Heavenly Lightning for countless years. Now they were actually going to fall at the hands of someone at the Early Divine Emperor Realm. It had to be said this was a great humiliation, but at least they would fall at the hands of the Futu Pagoda.
“The Futu Pagoda! The Futu Pagoda again!”
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes, his eyes nearly bursting. Yan Qingcheng’s departure was closely tied to the Futu Pagoda, and that Yun Geyao was utterly detestable. The Futu Pagoda was the place Jiang Chen hated most. Although he did not yet have the strength to overturn the Futu Pagoda, these two, Jiang Chen could wipe out right here!
“Since you’re from the Futu Pagoda, then the two of you aren’t leaving here alive today.”
Jiang Chen said coldly, staring fixedly at the two of them.
“Could it be you have some history with the Futu Pagoda? Heh, it seems enemies really are bound to meet on a narrow road. Whatever grudge you have, you won’t remember it from now on, because dead men don’t talk.”
Sun Yuan stood his ground like a general on horseback, his eyes sharp. At last he began to feel the desire to fight Jiang Chen.
“Fine. Since you want to die so badly, I’ll grant your wish. Otherwise, with people fighting me for the Heavenly Lightning Spirit, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be used to it. The Futu Pagoda may be strong enough in other people’s eyes, but in mine, it really isn’t anything much.”
Jiang Chen said with a cold smile, pointing his sword at Sun Yuan.
