Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 917: Face-off and Negotiations

When Kou Chongxue and Liu Jingsheng once again returned to the space above the heavenly screen, they noticed Xiong Chunyang retreating while covering Zhao Wuhen.

Jiang Guannan and Chong Xu who were fighting on the other side of the world, also seemed to receive the news as they no longer bothered with Zhang Xuansheng. They started to take their leave. novelbuddy(.)com

There was no question about it. Dugu Yuanshan had completely disappeared into the Spirit Luxuriant World now that the 2 had reappeared. It didn’t matter if he was dead or alive. All that mattered was that the invasion had failed completely!

It didn’t matter what methods Kou Chongxue and Liu Jingsheng used, but since they could make Dugu Yuanshan disappear, that would mean that the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World who were still present might suffer the same fate. freewebno vel.co m

Even though those from the Spirit Abundance World still had the ability to put up a fight, there was no point in doing so any longer.

As the 4 Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World gathered in the depths of space after retreating, the 5 Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World also gathered together. Both sides stared at each other across space.

“I can’t believe this... We actually failed!” Xiong Chunyang chuckled bitterly while shaking his head. Even though they were separated by an enormous distance, they seemed to be able to communicate as though they were standing in front of each other. “Looks like I will have to congratulate all of you. You managed to defend your world during its ascension... I believe you will receive yet another blessing from your world...”

The experts of the Spirit Abundance World revealed complicated looks as traces of loss and envy flashed across their faces at the same time.

If their invasion succeded, they would be the ones receiving the benefits. After the Spirit Abundance World fully digested them, there would be hopes of advancing into an even stronger world! When that happened, they would be the ones to be blessed by their world! Even if they weren’t able to ascend, they would still receive substantial benefits.

Alas... They might have possessed an advantage when they first arrived, but everything went to shits. They even lost a mighty being at the third tier of the Martial Void Realm!

The loss of an expert at his level would affect the growth and overall strength of their world! In fact, the stability of the Spirit Abundance World might take a huge hit!

Well... As for Lu Pingyuan, he was heavily injured, but he managed to get away. He hasn’t fallen, and after lying low for some time in his Heaven and Earth Villa, he would recover. The only problem was... He wasn’t the only Martial Void Realm expert in the Heaven and Earth Villa!

After thinking about it, the atmosphere between the 4 Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World became a little strange.

Speaking of having more than 1 Martial Void Realm expert, that was a luxury the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake didn’t have! As one of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World, their only Martial Void Realm expert was gone!

The Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World didn’t know what they were thinking about, but they exchanged a glance before Yang Taihe spoke. “What’s the matter? Now that you can’t beat us, you’re playing the nice guy with your congratulations? Are you planning to change your approach to how you’re treating us?”

Xiong Chunyang chuckled in response. “There’s no need for such enmity. After all, the exchange between us was inevitable. It’s the survival of the fittest and now that the battle has ended, there’s nothing stopping experts at our level from interacting with each other.”

Shaking his head, Yang Taihe muttered, “Please excuse our pettiness for not being able to forgive your transgressions. After all, experts from your world entered our world and slaughtered our disciples mercilessly! Because of you, the spirituality of the various continents was affected. About our grudge...”

“Sigh... You guys truly belong to a young world...” Xiong Chunyang interrupted Yang Taihe before he could finish. A casual laugh soon escaped his lips. “It’s not like you guys will remain idle after the ascension of your world. Heh, when you guys assaulted a weaker world, didn’t you do the same? You might not have destroyed them completely to fuse their world with your own, but I’m sure killing was commonplace. Don’t act all high and mighty in front of me. What are you going to do in the future? Are you going to remain the way you are and never grow stronger? Either you grow stronger, or you’ll be eliminated. There’s no other way about it.” [1]

The Martial Void realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World fell silent.

When they invaded the Manyu Continent in the past, the Barbaric World was already coming to the end of its lifespan and obtaining their world origin was something that was a massive free for all. None of them gave two shits about the survival about the aboriginals there.

When Kou Chongxue led the experts of the then Azure Ascension World to the Azure Flame World to plunder world origin, they did their fair share of killings. They might be thinking about the survival of their world and might have left the Azure Flame World intact, but that didn’t change the fact that they did exactly what the experts of the Spirit Abundance World did.

During the battle earlier, there were countless deaths. Everything was inevitable!

Seeing as the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World hadn’t replied, Xiong Chunyang muttered softly, “Since you guys seem to get it now, let’s put down our enmity for the moment. I hope you will release the experts of our world and prevent your newly ascended world from suffering too much damage.”

“Impossible!” Yang Taihe didn’t need to say anything when Zhang Xuansheng roared. “Our Spirit Luxuriant World isn’t a place where you can come and go as you please! Since you took the risk of invading us, you’ll have to pay the price of your failure!”

Zhang Xuanxheng’s blood boiled as he voiced his rejection. The other Martial Void Realm experts around him were in perfect agreement even though they hadn’t said anything. It was true that they were thinking too simply about invading other worlds back then, but it was true that every failure had its corresponding price.

The smile on Xiong Chunyang’s face disappeared and he spoke seriously. “Everyone, the reason we stopped is not because we can’t fight any longer. We just see no purpose in doing so. If you are truly planning to move against cultivators with weaker cultivation, looks like I will have to display my might and accompany you for a few more rounds!”

After Dugu Yuanshan’s disappearance and Lu Pingyuan’s escape, it was true that the Martial Void Realm experts from the Spirit Abundance World no longer had the ability to invade. However, that didn’t mean they could stay there and fight the 5 Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World for fun. After all, it wasn’t as though the experts from the Spirit Luxuriant World could do anything to them if they didn’t enter the heavenly screen.

Simply put, the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World were only able to fight their opponents because of the assistance of the World’s Will. They were far from comparable when it came to one on one battles.

If the fight really continued, the other side would just be fighting outside the heavenly screen and retreating at will just to fuck with them. The experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World would be the ones who would be disgusted by the drawn-out battles.

“Heh, so what if we continue fighting? Since we’re trapped here anyway, you can accompany us and help us hone our abilities!” Yang Taihe snorted suddenly.

It was true that the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World would be disgusted by their act, but that didn’t mean that they couldn’t disgust their opponents by being annoying.

One had to say that Yang Taihe’s idea posed a massive headache for those of the Spirit Abundance World.

It was true that the experts of the Spirit Abundance World could come up with countless ways to mess with them, but that didn’t mean that the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World couldn’t cook up similar ways to retaliate. Moreover, they weren’t pushovers anymore and the pressure on the experts of the Spirit Abundance World was huge.

Actually, even if they had to suffer as many losses as they did, if the Spirit Abundance World was able to swallow the newly ascended Spirit Luxuriant World, they would be able to quickly regain their strength. Who would have thought that they would fail in such a spectacular fashion?

To Xiong Chunyang and the rest, the most important thing they had to do was to cut their losses. They had to bring back as many Martial Dipper Realm experts as they could!

Finally, Xiong Chunyang broke the silence. “Fine. Since that’s the case, all of us Martial Void Realm experts shall not take part in this. Everyone else can fight for all we care and they’ll rely on themselves to escape. How about it?”

1. Thay’s right enemyman, scold their ass for being hypocrites. I’ve been waiting for someone to say it for a long time now ☜
