Chapter 690: Chapter 681: Killing Intent Outside the City

After leaving the Tianyuan Auction, Mo Wangchen walked towards the city gate of Huashen City.

Along the way, he could sense that quite a few people were following him.

"Is he really planning to leave the city directly?"

"Does he really not fear Bai Le’s ambush?"

Those tailing Mo Wangchen were none other than those who had participated in the auction.

Since Mo Wangchen had seized the Qiongqi Essence Blood, it was inevitable that Bai Le would not let it go easily; outside the city, it was easy to guess that Bai Le had probably already set up an ambush.

Just waiting for Mo Wangchen to walk right into it.

"What exactly does this man rely on? Xiaotian Sect possesses considerable strength in Central State, and with Bai Le as a Divine Son, if he really makes a move, he would certainly not easily spare this person, would he?"

"Could it be that there is some supreme expert secretly protecting him?"

"That’s very possible; carrying hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones, his origins must not be simple, perhaps he is a prodigy from some reclusive superpower," someone speculated.

Amidst the crowd’s discussion, Mo Wangchen walked unhurriedly, maintaining a very regular and rhythmic pace.

His expression was indifferent, and his face showed no sign of impending disaster, which inevitably piqued the curiosity of the crowd even more.

About fifteen minutes later, Mo Wangchen finally reached the city gate. He slightly looked up at the hundred-meter-high city wall, paused for two breaths, and then, without hesitation, stepped out of Huashen City.

Splash!

Behind him, a whole crowd surged and followed him out, wanting to see what Mo Wangchen was relying on. Knowing that Divine Son Bai Le of Xiaotian Sect had set up an ambush outside the city, Mo Wangchen still went alone to the ’appointment.’

With no sound, Mo Wangchen stepped out of Huashen City and continued walking forward without flying through the Heaven Flying skill.

For some reason, the area in front of the city gate had fewer Cultivators coming and going today.

The atmosphere was a bit strange; many people, after following Mo Wangchen out of the city, dispersed in all directions, some hiding within the mountains and forests, others standing on large tree branches, all wearing expressions of anticipation for a good show.

Mo Wangchen kept moving forward, his gaze fixed ahead, never looking around at his surroundings as if he had never taken Bai Le’s ambush to heart.

Until, after another quarter hour, Mo Wangchen’s steps paused for the first time.

He stood still, his gaze slightly shifting to a certain direction, "Come out, no need to hide."

The area fell silent, with only Mo Wangchen’s voice echoing in the woods, and the people who had followed him to this place unanimously kept quiet.

"Rustle, rustle, rustle!"

A faint sound came, as if someone was walking through the underbrush.

All eyes simultaneously turned towards the direction of the sound.

There, under the focused gaze of the crowd, Bai Le was slowly walking forward, with a woman following him, strikingly the woman who had been with Bai Le in the private room at the auction.

"Hand over the Qiongqi Essence Blood, spare your life, and let you leave safely."

As the two walked out of the dense forest and slowly approached a dozen steps away from Mo Wangchen, Bai Le stood quietly on the spot, his gaze indifferently sweeping over Mo Wangchen.

"Reason."

Mo Wangchen looked directly at him, his voice equally soft, uttering just these two words.

Bai Le shook his head, "No reason, life or death, it all depends on your own decision."

As he spoke, there was a hint of aloof pride in his expression, seemingly dismissing Mo Wangchen completely.

In fact, he indeed didn’t consider Mo Wangchen significant at all because Bai Le had fully grasped Mo Wangchen’s cultivation level early on, which was merely at the third peak of the Emperor Realm and hadn’t even reached the fourth realm.

Let alone himself, even the woman following behind him outmatched Mo Wangchen based on the cultivation Mo showed on the surface.

"Why are you so certain that you will definitely be my opponent?"

Mo Wangchen suddenly smiled, a bright smile, and his gaze towards Bai Le seemed to contain a hint of mockery.

"Arrogant!"

His words had barely left his mouth when the woman behind Bai Le promptly stepped forward.

Her name was Chu Menglan, Bai Le’s junior Disciples from the Xiaotian Sect, and she held another significant identity, the Divine Girl of Xiaotian Sect.

Chu Menglan’s cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Emperor Realm. Although there was still a considerable gap between her and Bai Le, she was significantly higher than Mo Wangchen.

"Brother, don’t waste words with this man. Let me capture him and fetch the Essence Blood for you."

As the words fell, Chu Menglan made her move. Her delicate fingers lightly tapped in the void, and ripples spread out instantly, akin to the ripples on the water’s surface.

The next moment, endless Immortal Light dazzled, carrying an oppressive aura, like the might of a mountain, and it fiercely advanced toward Mo Wangchen.

From the outset, she held nothing back, looking at Mo Wangchen as if she was looking at a dead man, without any mercy.

Hum, hum, hum!

The space vibrated; the brilliant Immortal Light, like a vast ocean, seemed capable of crushing the void itself. In the blink of an eye, it was right above Mo Wangchen’s head, crashing down like a mountain.

The expressions of many people around them changed. Chu Menglan, worthy of being the Divine Girl of Xiaotian Sect with her fifth-level Emperor Realm cultivation, was feared by many in the same realm.

"Ha..."

However, under the gaze of everyone in the arena, just as the dazzling Immortal Light was about to reach his head, Mo Wangchen suddenly smiled, his smile somewhat sinister.

"Break!"

The next moment, his expression turned cold instantly, and he pointed in the void in front of him. The space vibrated, and ripples emerged.

Crack!

The endless Immortal Light, like a mountain pressing down, crumbled and shattered in an instant, like a broken mirror, as if the void itself had collapsed.

"What?"

This sudden turn of events surprised not only the spectators but even Chu Menglan herself. In her view, she had used her full strength with this strike. Given Mo Wangchen’s cultivation, it should have been impossible for him to withstand it.

Even if he could somehow resist, it would have cost him tremendously.

Yet at this moment, what was unfolding before everyone’s eyes was entirely unexpected—had Mo Wangchen effortlessly neutralized her full-powered attack?

"To be honest, I don’t want to cause trouble. The auction is all about relying on one’s strength. However, for you, as the Divine Son and Divine Girl of Xiaotian Sect, to engage in such a despicable act is truly laughable."

Mo Wangchen stood in place, his words calm but clearly heard by everyone.

"Buzz!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out with a large hand, the void collapsed, and a mass of Chaos Holy Light burst forth, distinctly revealing one of the Seven Seals of Inquiry, the Hunyuan Seal.

"Sister, be careful!" Bai Le shouted, a sense of foreboding within.

However, he was still too late. In the next moment, Chu Menglan coughed up blood and was flung backward by the Chaos Holy Light, utterly powerless to resist.
