Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation
Chapter 1613 (Raw 1595):
It was no surprise whatsoever that the secret of the Scarlet Blood War Banner had indeed been exposed already.
It looked like Lan Luo came earlier because of this.
However, due to her identity, Lan Luo could not straightforwardly tell Xiao Chen. Evidently, he had truly misunderstood the other party.
Feng Buyu looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "Xiao Chen, what do you think? With your strength, talent, and mental state, this insignificant Purple Sun Region is bound to be only a pitstop in your life, not your final stopping point. Why lose your life here?"
Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at the sky. The red sun was slowly setting in the west, the day quickly coming to an end.
"Xiao Chen, just hand over that pirate banner. After all, it is not very useful to you. Why the need for all this, right?" Auntie Bai put on a sincere expression as she looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled and countered, "Woman, why the need to be so hypocritical? Do you think that I do not know that the pirate banner is the Scarlet Blood War Banner of the legendary pirate, the Scarlet Blood Pirate King?"
"What?!"
The place was set abuzz. Xiao Chen's words were startling. A legendary Pirate King's Scarlet Blood War Banner!
What did this mean? It meant that there was the possibility of obtaining the treasures that a legendary Pirate King left behind. Even if they did not get a legendary Pirate King's treasure, just the Scarlet Blood War Banner itself was worth half a sect.
Han Feng's face sank as he looked at Feng Buyu. "Feng Buyu, is what he said true?!"
Han Feng and Bai Xu were originally tempted to give up already, not wanting to continue clashing head-on with Xiao Chen. They feared that even if they managed to kill Xiao Chen, they would end up paying a higher price. It would not be worth it.
Furthermore, if they ended up paying a higher price and still failed to kill Xiao Chen, the consequences were simply unimaginable.
However, when the two, who were about to give up, heard about the Scarlet Blood War Banner, their expressions changed radically. Now, they could not give up, no matter what.
At the same time, the spectators, who were originally planning to just watch, showed greedy expressions in their eyes after the uproar.
Several people left silently. The news of the Scarlet Blood War Banner resurfacing in the world would spread very soon.
The ones with the most interesting expressions were naturally the Purple Cloud Pavilion's beautiful Auntie Bai and the Wind Chasing Sect's Feng Buyu.
Those two had put on the appearances of saviors, thinking that Xiao Chen did not know the value of the pirate banner. They had mounted a farce, hypocritically saying that they were here to help Xiao Chen.
In the end, the two received a ruthless slap that tore off their hypocritical masks.
Feng Buyu's expression turned extremely unsightly. Exuding killing Qi from his body, he said coldly, "Xiao Chen, I gave you face, but you did not reciprocate!"
"Feng Buyu, speak! Are Xiao Chen's words true?"
Han Feng and Bai Xu were completely agitated at this moment, resulting in them directing their anger at Feng Buyu.
Upon seeing Feng Buyu's conflicted appearance, Xiao Chen laughed loudly, "Feng Buyu, tell everyone whether it is true or not."
The beautiful Auntie Bai demanded coldly, "Xiao Chen, how does doing this benefit you? Why press each other like that, making everyone look bad?"
"What a 'press each other'? Who is the one pressing the other now? I, Xiao Chen, only bought two things that I wanted at an auction. In the end, two new talents blocked me on the street, wanting to kill me for the treasures. The two sects behind them are even more shameless, repeatedly coming to Idle Cloud Restaurant to seek trouble for me.
"There is still right now. The two of you clearly already came to an agreement to work together, planning to split the Scarlet Blood War Banner, yet you come before me, quite hypocritical and putting on an act. Is there a point?"
Xiao Chen revealed a cold smile. As he looked at the beautiful woman from the Purple Cloud Pavilion, he showed an expression of disdain.
Such a person should be ruthlessly slapped!
"Auntie Bai, let's not care so much anymore. Just kill this fellow and search his body. Snatch away his spatial ring!"
A decisive expression flashed on Feng Buyu's face as he prepared to work with the Purple Cloud Pavilion to kill Xiao Chen.
"Stop. The two of you are thinking of monopolizing this together. You'd best forget that thought," Han Feng shouted coldly. Clearly, he was not willing to see the Scarlet Blood War Banner end up in the hands of another.
Bai Xu and Han Feng stood side by side, expressing that they were of the same mind.
If it were just an ordinary item, there would be no need to bring out the late-stage Major Primal Core Elders. However, it would be worth it for the Scarlet Blood War Banner.
The setting sun in the distance shone its light down on the blood-covered Xiao Chen. The light looked like it was blood.
The situation immediately entered a standoff.
Feng Buyu truly felt hatred for Xiao Chen. Now, his plan completely fell through.
With the Scarlet Blood War Banner exposed, the entire Purple Sun City would definitely be spurred into action. By then, the difficulty of obtaining the war banner would be significantly higher.
All of the experts in the entire Purple Sun City would make a move when they heard this. A bloody storm was inevitable.
"Everyone, I feel that we cannot continue this stalemate; otherwise, we will fall in with these fellow's plans. He must be dragging this out," the Temple Ghost Sect's Sect Master Xue, who had been silent, suddenly said.
These words startled everyone to their senses. It was strange that Xiao Chen took the initiative to offer information about the Scarlet Blood War Banner. Perhaps he was dragging things out.
"In my opinion, we should just kill him first. We can make further plans after that!"
Sect Master Xue revealed a sinister smile. He hated Xiao Chen to the bones, wishing that he could kill Xiao Chen now.
Feng Buyu's eyes gleamed as he said indifferently, "I have no objections."
The Purple Cloud Pavilion's Auntie Bai said softly, "I have no objections, either."
Han Feng and Bai Xu exchanged looks; then, both said, "Remember, the Scarlet Blood War Banner is being held by his friend."
Soon, the group came to a common understanding: kill Xiao Chen, storm Idle Cloud Restaurant, and snatch the Scarlet Blood War Banner!
Han Feng, Bai Xu, Sect Master Xue, a Wind Chasing Sect Elder, and the Purple Cloud Pavilion's Auntie Bai, a total of five early-stage Major Primal Core existences locked their auras on Xiao Chen.
Immediately, the pressure multiplied.
Xiao Chen glared at Sect Master Xue. This person needs to die!
"Even at the moment of your death, you dare to glare at me. You must really be tired of living," Sect Master Xue said with a cold snort, feeling extremely upset at Xiao Chen's manner.
"Death? Even if I die, I will pull you down with me."
Divine Lightning Eye's fourth layer!
Suddenly, four purple flowers appeared in Xiao Chen's right eye and spun quickly. Black tribulation clouds promptly appeared in the sky, covering all directions, and gathered above Sect Master Xue.
"Ka ca!"
The instant the four flowers layered over each other, the Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness activated. Six lightning tribulations overlapped, landing on Sect Master Xue, catching everyone off guard.
Just one bolt of lightning tribulation was already shockingly powerful. With six lightning tribulations layered over each other, the electrical light plunged the entire Purple Sun City into darkness.
Only that lightning tribulation was dazzling and resplendent.
All this happened in the blink of an eye. In the next instant, the sky returned to normal.
Sect Master Xue vomited a mouthful of blood, his body mangled, and went flying somewhere.
Severely wounding an early-stage Major Primal Core cultivator in one glance. Xiao Chen's heaven-defying Magic Skill scared the crowd silly.
Xiao Chen told everyone with his actions that anyone who wanted to kill him, Xiao Chen, would have to pay a price.
"Attack together!"
Han Feng, Bai Xue, and the others felt horrified. They did not know whether Xiao Chen could execute this strange Martial Technique a second time in quick succession.
Without taking time to think, they charged forward, preparing to attack together and deal with Xiao Chen.
"Ice Blood Lightning Dragon!"
Xiao Chen remained calm. A drop of dragon blood emerged from his right hand, and a tricolor lightning dragon flew out of his palm at the Purple Cloud Pavilion's Auntie Bai.
That Ice Blood Lightning Dragon grew larger in the wind, turning huge, ferocious, and fiendish in the blink of an eye.
Auntie Bai was greatly startled, retreating in a fluster. Her killing move immediately broke, crushed by the Ice Blood Lightning Dragon. The ice-attributed energy and lightning-attributed energy swept across her, inflicting extreme pain.
Major Magic Skill, Dharmic World!
Xiao Chen's figure wavered, and he suddenly turned into a three-kilometer-tall giant. As he swung his saber, vast energy swept out, knocking both Han Feng and Bai Xu flying at the same time.
When Xiao Chen's body recovered its normal size, the Wind Chasing Sect Elder arrived before him.
"Flawless Saber Technique, Heartbreaking Stance!"
This saber strike was named heartbreaking. One first broke their own heart before breaking the enemy's. Intense pain spread throughout his body, bringing out all his potential amid the intense pain, and he erupted.
Using the Heartbreaking Stance, Xiao Chen clashed head-on with the Wind Chasing Sect's Major Primal Core Elder.
"Pu ci!"
Xiao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood and fell on the steps of Idle Cloud Restaurant. The difference in strength was still too great.
However, before that Wind Chasing Sect Elder could smile, a crack suddenly appeared in his chest, and boundless saber intent flew out from it.
This startled the Wind Chasing Sect Elder into hastily retreating, doing his best to suppress the saber Qi in his body and not daring to press his attack.
A great battle took place in the time it took for a spark to fly. Five experts attacked together, clashing with Xiao Chen. However, it resulted in all of them getting repulsed.
Both sides ended up injured.
Humiliation. An absolute great humiliation. After all, Xiao Chen was just a Yin Essence cultivator.
After using his trump cards continuously and using a Martial Technique that injured himself against the Wind Chasing Sect Elder, Xiao Chen suffered injury upon injury. Fortunately, he possessed the Azure Dragon bloodline, and the damage recovered extremely quickly.
With the repeated exchanges, Xiao Chen's blood flowed increasingly faster. His heart became like a dragon, thumping very strongly.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen pushed off with his feet and got back up with a somersault. The Lunar Shadow Saber left his hand and stabbed into the ground. He said indifferently, "With me around, you can all forget about getting close to Idle Cloud Restaurant!"
The tip of the saber pierced the ground, and the saber trembled, prompting the people from the Wind Chasing Sect and the Purple Cloud Pavilion to unconsciously retreat a few steps in fear.
