Chapter 446: Chapter 209: Kill Yourself
When Tang Xi finished speaking, everyone present looked at each other in stunned silence.
Had it been anyone else, they would have had absolute confidence in Tang Xi.
This was a woman whose beauty could ruin nations.
She possessed a terrifying sort of Magic Power; neither man nor woman could escape her charm.
It made people willingly and gladly offer her everything they had.
But... their opponent today was Fang Shuwen.
When the fiend descends, forget the written word; it’s the Demon Evil God, who dyes the sky in blood!
In the eyes of this Human World Demon God, at least so far, it seemed women had never been of any consequence.
In Anyue City, he had left fields strewn with bodies. On Celestial Martial Peak, he had shed enough blood to float shields. While men made up the majority of his victims, the number of women was by no means small.
Jianghu people loved to add the word "Fairy" to women’s nicknames, and Fang Shuwen had lost count of how many of these so-called "fairies" he had killed.
No one could guarantee that Tang Xi’s unfailingly effective charm would work on Fang Shuwen.
If it did, then everyone would be overjoyed... but if it didn’t, Tang Xi would be walking to her certain death.
Shen Qingfeng didn’t look at Tang Xi, speaking softly instead:
"You can’t go."
Tang Xi’s brow furrowed slightly.
"You don’t trust me?"
"It’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s that I don’t dare take the risk."
Shen Qingfeng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on Fang Shuwen, who was positioned high above them.
"Taking a risk means accepting the consequences.
"Your death would be no great loss, but it would cost us a powerful ally."
Su Baiyu quickly interjected:
"Don’t take what he said to heart.
"He’s just worried something might happen to you. After all, no matter how you look at it, Fang Shuwen isn’t the type to cherish women.
"Old Shen may be blunt, but you shouldn’t be reckless either."
Tang Xi huffed. Of course she knew what they were worried about.
In fact, she harbored the same fears herself.
So, she didn’t let her confidence blind her. Instead, she heeded their advice.
"Then what do you suggest we do?
"The original plan was to ambush him here, but now he’s arrived even earlier than us. He’s already waiting.
"Are we just supposed to stand here and stare at each other blankly until the end of time?"
"She has a point..."
Without any warning, a voice suddenly cut in. In an instant, the faces of the Night Rain Tower experts—who had been racking their brains over how to deal with Fang Shuwen after their plan was disrupted—all changed drastically.
Because that voice didn’t belong to any of them.
It was... Fang Shuwen!
Shen Qingfeng couldn’t help but feel his pupils constrict. He had been watching Fang Shuwen the entire time, only looking away for a moment when Tang Xi asked her question.
In that short span of time, Fang Shuwen... was here!?
’When?’
He couldn’t believe someone in this world could have escaped his sight.
But the truth was, Fang Shuwen had not only appeared before them from right under his nose, he had already made his move.
BANG!!!
Following the explosive sound, Gongshu Ji’s pupils trembled with shock and fear.
The sound wasn’t from Fang Shuwen’s palm striking his body, but from it striking his ’Thousand Mechanisms Box’.
His Thousand Mechanisms Box was forged from Profound Iron and was supposedly indestructible. It concealed countless mechanisms and housed one hundred twenty-eight types of Hidden Weapons. Once activated, it could annihilate an enemy force a hundred times his number in an instant.
Yet, this indestructible Thousand Mechanisms Box hadn’t even withstood a single moment in Fang Shuwen’s grasp.
With that deafening bang, the entire Thousand Mechanisms Box was shattered to pieces by that single palm strike!
This was the source of Gongshu Ji’s shock, but in the next moment, a vicious glint appeared in his eyes.
The instant the Thousand Mechanisms Box shattered, the one hundred twenty-eight types of Hidden Weapons stored inside would burst forth like a sudden storm of pear blossoms.
Forget the fact that Fang Shuwen was right in front of him; even if he were ten zhang away, he might not have escaped unscathed.
Of course, the one who also couldn’t escape unscathed was Gongshu Ji himself...
But if his death was certain, wouldn’t it be a fine thing to have Fang Shuwen, the Human World Demon God, accompany him in death?
And so, he let out a sudden, explosive roar:
"FALL BACK!!"
He poured all his remaining strength into that shout, and it echoed in all directions in an instant.
At that very same moment, SWISH! TING! JINGLE... all sorts of Hidden Weapons whistled out from within the Thousand Mechanisms Box.
In an instant, Gongshu Ji’s body was riddled with holes.
But it wasn’t over. Fang Shuwen’s palm strike had never been aimed at shattering the Thousand Mechanisms Box, but at taking his life.
Although the Hidden Weapons, released later, had struck first and pierced his body, Fang Shuwen’s palm landed on his chest without the slightest pause.
There was another dull thud.
With a sickening impact, Gongshu Ji was sent flying.
The strike annihilated his internal organs and severed every single meridian in his body. His life was extinguished in a mere instant.
But he forced his eyes open, wanting to see Fang Shuwen’s fate.
But no matter how hard he tried, the only thing he could see was a large bell... and it seemed there was also the resonant toll of a great bell.
’Where did that sound come from? Was that bell even real?’
Gongshu Ji could no longer tell... His world had already faded to black.
Although Gongshu Ji didn’t see it, Shen Qingfeng and the others saw it clearly.
The instant the Thousand Mechanisms Box exploded, countless Hidden Weapons burst out in all directions like scattered flower petals.
Fortunately, Gongshu Ji’s dying shout had made them instinctively leap back, allowing them to avoid being caught in the blast of Hidden Weapons.
