This battle ended earlier than people had estimated.
According to the onlookers, Shi Yan, a warrior at the Second Sky of True God realm, had skipped the grade and challenged Fergie, an expert at the Peak of True God Realm. Even if he could win, it would be a pathetic victory from a long, bloody battle.
However, the result was beyond their expectation. Shi Yan won, and it was a quick battle. From the time he started his attack to the moment he killed Fergie, it wasn’t more than one minute.
This speed was like the productivity of a King God Realm expert killing a Peak of True God Realm expert.
For the time being, a silence fell on this massive bronze steamship.
Shi Yan’s bloody, brutal, and resolute style of fighting was like a seal, imprinting deeply in their brains that could never wash off.
Since his performance was both beautiful and frightening, everybody had a feeling that they had missed something. They felt that Fergie was the one who had skipped the level and challenged Shi Yan, who was the higher realm warrior who had the absolute control of that battle.
On the other side, Shi Yan was still calm as usual. He hadn’t realized that the onlookers were still sinking in his bloody style of fighting. He quietly wiped the blood stains off his body and deactivated the Petrification Martial Spirit. It was to prevent showing his marvelous body recovery speed to the others, which could scare them even more.
Under the given situation that he couldn’t estimate the others precisely, he should never reveal his Aces completely. Otherwise, the opponents would have a better chance to kill him.
Shi Yan understood this well.
Princess Zi Yao, I’m willing to give up the Metal Wind mineral lode in the South Bay of the Underworld League for his head.
All of a sudden, Bi Rou broke the silence. Her beautiful eyes sparkled coldly, gazing at Shi Yan.
I want him to die.
Miss!
The two King God Realm experts on her sides couldn’t help but scream, looking at her disbelievingly.
Bi Rou waved her hand, signaling them to stop. She was still eyeballing at Shi Yan. All of a sudden, she turned to Princess Zi Yao.
So? A Metal Wind mineral lode for the life of a Second Sky of True God Realm medicinal cauldron. Have you ever seen any deal better than this?
She hadn’t recovered from the fright arising at the bottom of her heart yet. As the daughter of Bi Tian, her knowledge was much more outstanding than many people.
Shi Yan’s performance today made her realize a hidden danger. She wanted to use the Metal Wind mineral lode to diminish this potential danger, and not let the seed of an immeasurable disaster sprout in the future.
Fergie was a member of the Underworld League, but she got killed that fast. Apparently, Shi Yan held a big grudge against the Underworld League. One day, when Shi Yan grew up stronger, he would take revenge for sure. At that time, the price they had to pay would be much bigger.
She understood clearly the value of a ruthless man who was good at fighting skills, and could break through the new realm while being a medicinal cauldron.
She wanted to remove this danger as soon as possible.
Allard didn’t say anything, but he complimented her in his mind, thinking that she had such a good vision. He agreed with Bi Rou’s suggestion.
Sis!
Du Feng was shaken. He hastened to talk with a sound mind.
A mineral lode of Metal Wind’s extremely precious. Even in our Dark Firmament Divine Nation, it’s still rare. Sis!
Shut up!
There was no smile on Princess Zi Yao’s enchanting face anymore. Her beautiful eyes were so serious that they could scare people.
He saved you, and now you treat him like that?
Just a True God Realm warrior. Is he worth bargaining with me? Sht, I used to want to deal with him though.
Du Feng muttered while his dark eyes peeked at Shi Yan. He still hated Shi Yan for forcing him to pledge.
Shi Yan wore a faint face, calmly looking at him. However, Shi Yan was sighing inside, as he knew that he could hardly believe such sort of people.
Although he had forced Du Feng to make a pledge, he didn’t think that he could receive a life star. In the Raging Flame Star Area, life stars were really precious. Since he was just at the Second Sky of True God Realm, even if he could have a life star, he couldn’t keep it for a long time.
What Du Feng just said had proven his assumption. Indeed, right from the start, the other didn’t want to keep his words.
He had predicted this result earlier, so he wasn’t so angry. However, it pushed him further on the way of the endless pursuit of power. Shi Yan understood that if he had had a suppressive power and realm, Du Feng’s promise would have become true.
But his realm was too low. Sigh…
Shi Yan sighed, but his goal was clearer than ever.
You just need to nod. I can make the papers now and transfer the Metal Wind mineral lode to you, putting it under your name right now. What do you think about it? It’s not a bad deal, you know? You should consider carefully,
Bi Rou said seriously.
Although the two parties were negotiating the matter of his life, Shi Yan just listened. He didn’t say anything, just looking at Princess Zi Yao.
Little brother, what do you think about me?
Princess Zi Yao suddenly beamed a smile like thousands of flowers blooming at the same time. Such charming bearings could melt the heart of any man, making them willing to be under her ruling.
Miss Bi Rou of the Underworld League wants to kill you. What do you think about it? If you were me, what would you do?
Everybody put on an odd visage, eyeing him.
Shi Yan was still relaxed under their scrutinizing. He suddenly cracked a smile.
I think… As Miss Bi Rou wants to use a Metal Wind mineral lode to exchange for my life, my value is proven, right? What do I need to add?
Princess Zi Yao’s eyes sparkled. She nodded.
Such an arrogant smartas. I like you, man. Alright, I’m going to make it clear here. You follow me and become my cortege. How does it sound?
What can you offer me?
Shi Yan didn’t agree immediately, and smiled until he squinted.
Although my realm isn’t high… my ambition’s quite big. Do you still want to receive me?
I like people with ambition.
Princess Zi Yao burst out laughing, shaking her soft, charming body naturally.
If you are strong enough, even if you desire me… it’s not impossible. So? Think about it.
Everybody gawked with a bizarre countenance. Their electric-like looks were raking through Shi Yan from time to time.
Okay.
Shi Yan mused for three seconds while staring in Princess Zi Yao’s eyes. He beamed a bright smile.
If I can be the guard of a flower like you, I can see you every day. To a man, it isn’t a strenuous task.
Such a sweet mouth. I like you even more.
Princess Zi Yao laughed until her body shook. Her smile was absolutely mesmerizing.
Then, it’ll be that way. You come with me. Forget about what you and my dumb brother have dealt. What he can’t offer you, I can give you in the future. However, the premise is… you have to prove that you have such competence.
Shi Yan nodded, replying faintly.
I will.
Princess Zi Yao, you are willing to give up a Metal Wind mineral lode for a True God Realm medicinal cauldron? Are you sure?
Bi Rou gritted her teeth, stressing the words ‘medicinal cauldron,’ which indicated Shi Yan’s low status.
Am I not clear?
Princess Zi Yao threw her a glance while chuckling.
So, did you get water in your head, saying that you are willing to give up a Metal Wind mineral lode for his life? What you can see, don’t you think I can as well?
Bi Rou’s face became grimaced.
She contemplated for a while, her eyes like a knife peeling Shi Yan’s flesh. She nodded heavily.
Okay! You’re lucky this time. Remember, you’ve created a grudge against Bi Rou. It can’t be undone easily. I won’t give you much time to grow. If you want to take revenge, let’s see if you are eligible!
Shi Yan’s face was cold and harsh, but his manner was still calm and natural.
We’ll talk about it later. As long as I’m alive, I always have a chance. I will always remember your favor. We will meet again, soon.
Then, his arm suddenly shook. A fierce energy exploded, blowing the hundred-legged centipede away forcefully.
Beams of starlight fell like sand, covering the centipede. The medicinal animal hissed, while holes appeared on its body as its vitality was cut off. The unfinished God Developing Pellets inside the centipede were taken out. Shi Yan stashed them in his Storage Ring, then shifted his look towards Bi Rou.
Well, those are my interest.
My medicinal animal!
Allard cried hoarsely. Tears lingered in his eyes as he angrily and maliciously cried towards Shi Yan.
Kid, I swear that I will make you die from the cruelest tortures.
I’ll be waiting for you,
Shi Yan nodded, but he didn’t seem to be threatened.
About who will die earlier, muahaha, just wait to see it.
Sis!
Du Feng was discontented, his face grim.
Are you really willing to give up a Metal Wind mineral lode for a medicinal cauldron like him? It’s a Metal Wind mineral lode!
Shut up!
Princess Zi Yao’s eyes got colder. She gazed at him coldly.
You can never see the whole picture or the future. Being grounded for ten years is a too short to a brat like you! When we come back, I will report to Father and ask him to confine you for a little longer. It would help you see what a good vision is!
Du Feng discolored, continually begging to be forgiven. He didn’t dare to talk more.
As Bi Rou found it hard to persuade Princess Zi Yao, she didn’t want to waste more time with her. She coldly gazed at Shi Yan for a long while, as if she wanted to carve his image into her head. Later on, she asked,
What’s your name?
Shi Yan.
Alright, I remember you now. Shi Yan, you’d better not meet me again. Or else, I’ll make you die pathetically.
Sure. I will remember you, Miss Bi Rou of the Underworld League.
Bi Rou, Allard, and her group didn’t dare to linger. They left the big bronze steamship, storming into the dark, gloomy outer space. Their lonely figures disappeared into an energy storm.
On the ship, Princess Zi Yao was giggling, eyeing Shi Yan with great interest. Her pupils were filled with curiosity.
Don’t worry. As long as you ace your job as my bodyguard, I won’t mistreat you. If your contribution is sufficient, you can get what you want. Du Feng can’t give it to you, but I can.
Shi Yan slightly bent his body. His eyes were cold and relaxed, as they didn’t reflect any of his happy or unpleasant emotions under the woman’s enticement.
Clean it up. We’ll alter the journey. Let’s go home.
As soon as Princess Zi Yao ordered, the other King God Realm warriors moved immediately, getting inside the giant bronze steamship.
Shortly, the ship departed again.
