Fate-Defying Demon Emperor
Chapter 462: Are You Ready to Embrace Death?
Although Ye Chuanfeng and Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign were covetous, they lacked the strength and dared not take action.
Swordsaint, however, not only had the desire to steal but also the requisite power, and he was resolute in his actions. Before everyone’s eyes, he directly executed the white-haired elder and seized the Marrow-Cleansing Holy Water. This sudden turn of events happened so swiftly that no one could react in time. They could only stare dumbstruck, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Swordsaint actually dared to challenge the authority of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion? Has he gone mad? His strength is formidable, but he’s still just one person. The Myriad Treasures Pavilion, on the other hand, has branches all across the Eastern Region, with not only Saints but also Great Emperor Realm powerhouses in its ranks. By acting today, Swordsaint will inevitably be pursued by the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Soon, there might be no place for him in the entire Eastern Region. The Marrow-Cleansing Holy Water is precious, but is it worth this much?
Everyone was perplexed and utterly baffled, but Swordsaint was exceptionally fast. Before people could get a clear look at his true face, he had already torn through space, attempting to make a distant escape.
"You are courting death!"
A cold voice resonated, filled with rage and a murderous intent that was like a chilling wind from the Nine Serenities, seemingly capable of freezing one’s very soul. Saint You Heng took action, immensely angered. He could not believe that Swordsaint would dare such outrageous behavior. Since that was the case, he was determined to stop him and use bloodshed to cleanse the shame brought upon the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
BOOM!
A massive explosion resonated, blasting the ceiling of the venue apart. The space above collapsed, and countless pitch-black rifts spread like a spiderweb, creating a terrifying spectacle. Two figures shrouded in dazzling light flickered in and out of the void. One was enveloped in a ghostly light, exuding a cold Holy Might—Saint You Heng. The other blazed with fierce golden light, as if bathed in sunshine and surrounded by sharp sword light—it was none other than Swordsaint. Both were formidable powerhouses in the Saint Realm. Now they clashed fiercely, shattering space, collapsing palaces, disrupting time, and wreaking havoc around them.
Inside the venue, people hastily took action to defend themselves against the falling debris from the shattered ceiling, but their attention was mostly fixated on the sacred battle in the sky. Nobody had imagined that Swordsaint would truly dare to make a move. Now that he was blocked by Saint You Heng, it was uncertain whether he could escape.
BOOM!
Just then, a blue light shot out from booth number three. It condensed in the air and transformed into a gigantic blue hand about 3,000 meters in size. The sound of rushing water filled the air as massive waves surged in all directions. The gigantic blue hand, radiating an unfathomably powerful Holy Might, struck directly toward Su Han in booth number nine.
The notable figure in booth number three was also a Saint. To everyone’s astonishment, they seized this opportunity to suddenly attack Su Han. The booth’s Formation was strong, but it couldn’t withstand the strike of a Saint. Soon, the Formation Patterns shattered and the Great Formation collapsed, revealing Su Han’s figure within.
"Su Han!"
Seeing Su Han, both Ye Chuanfeng’s and Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign’s eyes flickered with surprise as they quickly turned to look, their intent to kill evident.
"How dare you run amok in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion! No matter who you are, you will not leave here today!" an old, infuriated voice rang out as Master Gong Ming appeared inside the venue, holding the Myriad Laws Holy Banner. He activated the City Protection Formation, enveloping the entire Cang City, and simultaneously launched a swift attack on booth number three.
BOOM!
Booth number three was blasted apart, revealing a figure swathed in blue light. It was a young and beautiful blue-haired woman with a stern face. Her captivating eyes were devoid of any emotion, and her Holy Might was profound. She was clearly a powerhouse of the Saint Realm Third Layer.
"Lan Yi the Female Saint! It’s actually her! How could she be here, and why would she attack the Myriad Treasures Pavilion? Could she be in league with Swordsaint?" someone exclaimed in shock, recognizing the blue-haired woman’s identity. She was a highly renowned Female Saint from Mirror Lake Holy Land, one of the Ten Great Holy Lands. She shouldn’t be here! And how could Saint You Heng not have known in advance? Did she use some method to disguise herself and get in?
Everyone was clueless. They had no idea why Lan Yi the Female Saint would suddenly make a move, especially with Su Han as her target. There doesn’t seem to be any significant grudge between Mirror Lake Holy Land and Su Han!
"Hmph!"
Confronted by Master Gong Ming’s threats, Lan Yi the Female Saint showed no fear and snorted coldly. A burst of blue light erupted from her as her Domain expanded, channeling the power of time as she swiftly struck out.
Although Master Gong Ming was only at the Saint Realm First Layer, he was an Array Master, and the City Protection Formation of Cang City was under his control. Standing within the Great Formation, his strength was amplified, and he struck with dominance, managing to pressure Lan Yi the Female Saint. However, their battle greatly affected the entire venue. The terrifying ripples of their fight swept out, demolishing everything within it.
"Quick, run! This place is collapsing! I don’t want to be caught in a battle between Saints!"
The crowd quickly got to their feet and fled, daring not to stay and become collateral damage. A battle between Saints was so dangerous that even the aftershocks could injure Supreme Realm powerhouses. Who would want to get involved for no reason? 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
At this moment, the sky above was home to the fierce battle between Saint You Heng and Swordsaint, while the fight between Master Gong Ming and Lan Yi the Female Saint raged within the venue. Four Saints had erupted in battle, a terrifying scene beyond belief. No one had anticipated that an auction would lead to a major battle between Saints, let alone four of them—it was utterly horrifying.
Protected by his private booth’s Formation, Su Han was not injured by the palm strike from Lan Yi the Female Saint. He now followed the crowd out of the venue.
He, too, couldn’t participate in a battle between Saints. Getting caught in it would result in severe injury, if not death. But why would Swordsaint and Lan Yi the Female Saint suddenly attack? Don’t they realize the serious consequences of their actions? They knew, yet they proceeded. I refuse to believe it was solely for the Marrow-Cleansing Holy Water. There must be a deeper reason for their actions.
"Su Han, you can’t escape! Die!"
Just then, Ye Chuanfeng teleported close, lunging at Su Han with murderous intent. He wouldn’t have dared to attack initially, but amidst the sudden chaos, both Saint You Heng and Master Gong Ming were preoccupied, presenting him with an excellent opportunity.
If I can kill Su Han, it will all be worth it. At worst, I’ll abandon the Seven Stars Sect and head straight for the Tian Luo Net Holy Land to seek refuge with Tian Lou Saint!
Ye Chuanfeng had his plan clear. On the other side, Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and Qin Wushuang also launched their attacks. They were unwilling to let Su Han grow any stronger and intended to use the day’s unexpected chaos to annihilate him completely.
"Character Technique of Motion!"
Su Han’s gaze sharpened, but he chose not to meet them head-on. The power disparity between me and the likes of Ye Chuanfeng and Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign is just too great. With a twentyfold boost to his speed and the Art of Teleportation, Su Han swiftly fled. He then used Thousand Changes and Transformations to disguise himself, leaving Ye Chuanfeng and Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign unable to find him.
However, at that moment, Su Han’s vision suddenly went black. He found himself in a peculiar space, standing on a duel platform. Across from him, a familiar figure emerged, grinning.
"Welcome to the Duel Arena. Are you ready to face death?"
The newcomer was Gold Ingot.
