Chapter 1896: Chapter 1896: Dead?
"You think you can escape from the palm of my hand?!"
Feng Huaji had never planned on letting Qin Chen go!
Because he knew he absolutely could not allow Qin Chen to leave.
No matter what!
"Swoosh!"
His speed was unbelievably fast.
After all, his Cultivation was so much higher than Qin Chen’s.
In practically an instant.
The two of them flashed out of everyone’s line of sight.
Xuu Qian clenched his fists tightly: "I hope Qin Chen can escape."
Yue Yishan and the others glanced at Gao Yu, their gazes icy cold. All of this had started because of them.
If Qin Chen didn’t die.
It wouldn’t just be Feng Huaji.
Gao Yu and Huang Luo would definitely be implicated as well.
After all, the strength Qin Chen had just displayed could only be described as terrifying.
But likewise.
Once Qin Chen died.
Then everything would be for nothing.
Even if they reported this matter to Saber Saint Cliff later.
The person would already be dead.
No matter how they pursued it, nothing could be changed; at most there’d be some punishment.
So in the end.
Everything still depended on Qin Chen himself.
He absolutely could not die!
"I originally didn’t want to kill you, but you just wouldn’t know your place and insisted on making things blow up to this point. You brought all of this on yourself!"
Feng Huaji madly chased after Qin Chen.
His Great Dao happened to be of the Wind Attribute, which made his speed not one bit slower than Qin Chen’s—actually, even faster.
"Boom!"
As his voice fell.
He slammed a palm straight at Qin Chen.
"Bang!"
Qin Chen was in a bad state at this moment.
How could he possibly block this palm from Feng Huaji?
His entire body was blasted straight into the ground.
But in the very next instant.
Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Chen burst out and once again shot madly forward.
He could not die!
If he died, Lin Songyun and Little Fairy, and Han Xinkui who still hadn’t woken up, would end up stuck inside the God Devouring Crystal’s space for their entire lives.
After all, he was the master of the God Devouring Crystal; as long as he could control the God Devouring Crystal.
It might even be that the God Devouring Crystal itself would be damaged.
"You really are stubborn as hell."
Feng Huaji let out a cold laugh!
But to him.
Stubbornness was completely useless.
Killing Qin Chen was nothing more than a matter of wasting a bit of time.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Immediately after.
A horrific, brutal chase-and-kill battle played out.
Qin Chen was pursued and struck at again and again by Feng Huaji, bombardments raining down one after another.
Without a single pause.
Even though Qin Chen’s Physical Strength was against the heavens, he was still grievously injured.
"This guy is actually a Body Refinement Martial Artist?"
Feng Huaji’s brows lifted.
But.
Everything was over!
Killing Aura burst forth in Feng Huaji’s heart. Gripping his great saber, he slashed fiercely toward Qin Chen, cleaving across heaven and earth.
Sword Energy ripped open space.
Then.
It crashed down with a roar!
"Boom!"
This slash nearly took Qin Chen’s life on the spot.
He opened his mouth and spewed blood in great mouthfuls, the space all around thrown into chaos.
Taking advantage of this, Qin Chen grit his teeth hard and dove straight into the God Devouring Crystal’s space.
The God Devouring Crystal rolled into the dirt, incredibly inconspicuous.
"Hm?"
Feng Huaji arrived at the scene.
With a wave of his hand he blasted away the chaotic lingering auras, his gaze falling on the blood Qin Chen had just spat out. His brows slightly furrowed.
"Dead?"
His eyes swept the surroundings with a suspicious look.
If it were anyone else, he wouldn’t have doubted it.
But the shocking defensive power Qin Chen had displayed earlier made him feel Qin Chen shouldn’t have died just like that.
Inside the God Devouring Crystal’s space, Qin Chen remained silent.
To prevent any mishap, he didn’t even release his Telekinesis.
At this moment he couldn’t see anything outside at all.
Feng Huaji searched the surroundings for a long time, but in the end, found nothing.
As for the God Devouring Crystal.
It was just an ordinary Crystal Stone, and it was buried in the dirt; he simply couldn’t see it.
"Looks like he really is dead."
Only now did Feng Huaji feel certain.
"It’s just a pity the Qiankun Bag is gone too, and I still didn’t get those eight thousand Identity Creeds back."
Feng Huaji’s expression was somewhat ugly.
"But if it’s gone, it’s gone. They still have to agree to my terms."
To him, although he hadn’t managed to reclaim those eight thousand Identity Creeds, by killing Qin Chen he had removed any future trouble.
Besides.
For Gao Yu’s sake, he had almost overturned here.
So deep down, he was dissatisfied with the two of them.
He believed Gao Yu and Huang Luo wouldn’t dare refuse him at a time like this, right?
Even though he hadn’t accomplished what they wanted.
Turning around.
Feng Huaji headed back.
A lot of people were still waiting at the scene; no one had left.
Seeing Feng Huaji return alone, many people’s eyes narrowed.
Xuu Qian’s face instantly went pale.
Gao Yu hurriedly asked, "Elder Feng, how’s that guy?"
"Dead."
Feng Huaji replied.
Everyone’s hearts shook.
They had already guessed this outcome long ago.
But hearing the news now, their feelings were complicated.
An absolute, peerless Evil had fallen.
What a pity.
Xuu Qian and the others trembled inside, their eyes turning red in an instant, tears welling up.
Xuu Qian bit down hard: "Qin Chen, I’ll avenge you."
Even though his first acquaintance with Qin Chen hadn’t been pleasant.
He’d still come to regard Qin Chen as a very good friend.
But he never expected...
They say men don’t easily shed tears.
But.
Right now Yue Yishan and the other three all had tears in their eyes.
They were indescribably heartsick.
Qin Chen had truly treated them well—especially Yue Yishan, whose feelings were particularly deep.
Now, receiving this news, it was really hard for them to accept.
"I’m leaving first. Remember, I took action for you. You must join the First Palace later."
Feng Huaji’s voice rang in the minds of Gao Yu and Huang Luo.
The two hurriedly nodded.
They both knew that if they refused Feng Huaji at a time like this, their fate might very well be the same as Qin Chen’s.
Even though they hadn’t gotten what they wanted.
In truth, the First Palace was already the strongest of all the palaces under Saber Saint Cliff, and their original intention had been to join the First Palace anyway.
"What a shame."
Many people shook their heads sadly.
Heaven is jealous of geniuses.
Nameless Land.
Qin Chen stayed inside the God Devouring Crystal for a full half hour before cautiously extending his Telekinesis to observe.
After seeing the surroundings had returned to peace, Qin Chen finally emerged from the God Devouring Crystal, bringing Lin Songyun out with him as well.
The two of them were both badly injured.
"They went way too far."
Lin Songyun was a bit indignant: "Once we’ve recovered from our injuries, we’ll go join some other top-tier power."
"No."
However, Qin Chen shook his head.
Lin Songyun was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Qin Chen said, "We might not return to Saber Saint Cliff, but we can’t just let this matter slide."
"Right now everyone thinks the two of us are dead. Then we absolutely have to show up at tomorrow’s Cliff Entrance Battle settlement. We’re going to let Saber Saint Cliff witness our talent."
"And by doing so, we’ll let Saber Saint Cliff see just what kind of peerless prodigies they missed out on because of Feng Huaji’s actions!"
Not only were they going to participate in that Cliff Entrance Battle settlement, they were going to dazzle the entire field!
