Chapter 1001: Chapter 1001: Wounded

Hearing that Red Soul Hall demanded that he be handed over, Lin Chen didn’t respond with words, but looked indifferently towards Yan Yue and the others in the distance.

He was rather curious about how Yan Yue and his group would deal with it, and whether they would truly hand him over to Red Soul Hall.

"Damn it, thinking to demand my master to be handed over for disposal? Who do you think you are?"

Although Lin Chen observed quietly, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf couldn’t tolerate the way these people treated Lin Chen.

At this moment, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf glared at Xue Yuanba and the people from Red Soul Hall, cursing them outright.

Xue Yuanba and the others couldn’t stand being cursed at by an animal this way; their faces were unable to hide their embarrassment.

Hum——

When Xue Yuanba heard the Sky Howling Demon Wolf’s insult, he swung his fist and bombarded the Demon Wolf.

The Sky Howling Demon Wolf was strong, but Xue Yuanba was not afraid of him.

Seeing that Xue Yuanba was also a hot-headed guy and since the opponent wanted to fight, the Demon Wolf was more than willing to oblige, hence, he extended his sharp claws, ready to have a fierce battle with Xue Yuanba.

However, before the Sky Howling Demon Wolf could make a move, Yan Yue’s figure had already landed beside Lin Chen, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Demon Wolf, casually clashing a palm against Xue Yuanba’s fist.

"Xue Yuanba, this competition has already ended. It’s your Red Soul Hall’s disciples that didn’t survive, you’ve lost this round. Are you trying to renege now?"

Yan Yue opened his mouth to speak, his gaze falling on Xue Yuanba.

Yan Yue was pondering in his heart how to solve the current predicament.

Although the Sky Howling Demon Wolf’s strength was not weak, matching a fighter nearly at the Creation Realm, Red Soul Hall’s ancestor brought many strong warriors this time, and those elders of Red Soul Hall were no easy targets either. If a real fight broke out, the people of Divine Flame Alliance might not have the upper hand.

"What? You’re not going to hand over Lin Chen and going to protect him?"

After clashing with Yan Yue, Xue Yuanba was somewhat surprised to discover that Yan Yue’s strength had indeed improved and was not beneath his own.

If it wasn’t for their superior’s demand for Lin Chen’s life, Xue Yuanba really didn’t want to have a falling out with Yan Yue and the others, engaging in a colossal battle.

But this operation cost the lives of Xue Qing and the others; if they failed to claim Lin Chen’s life, they might have trouble explaining to their superior.

"Naturally, we won’t hand him over."

Yan Yue answered without any hesitation.

Although Yan Yue didn’t know what had happened in the Grey Marsh Plain, he had a feeling that the appearance and disappearance of that strong presence was very likely related to Lin Chen.

This thought might seem absurd, but it was not impossible.

Moreover, with the talent that Lin Chen had displayed, he was definitely going to be the main pillar of the Divine Flame Alliance in the future, so how could Yan Yue possibly hand him over.

"Hmph, Yan Yue, if you do not hand over Lin Chen, this matter won’t end. Think carefully about the lives of the common people within those territories captured by our Red Soul Hall."

Xue Yuanba, thinking he had caught Yan Yue’s weak point, threatened again using this matter.

"Xue Yuanba, your Red Soul Hall has committed endless evil deeds, utterly heartless. My Divine Flame Alliance will never coexist with you under the same sky."

Yan Yue looked at Xue Yuanba and angrily said.

He realized those occupied cities’ inhabitants would become reasons for Xue Yuanba to threaten them. Thus, Yan Yue decided not to yield to Xue Yuanba’s threats this time.

"Good, very good. I didn’t expect you, Yan Yue, could also turn a blind eye to death. For just a mere Lin Chen, you’re actually willing to sacrifice so many lives."

Xue Yuanba looked at Yan Yue and shamelessly said.

The members of the Divine Flame Alliance were furious upon hearing this.

The one who was going to kill those commoners was Yan Yue, yet the opponent was speaking as if they themselves were righteous.

Faced with Yan Yue not handing over Lin Chen and even choosing to protect him at the cost of his life, Xue Yuanba and his group felt helpless and then prepared to leave.

However, just when Xue Yuanba and the others made gestures to leave, they suddenly turned around, furiously mobilizing their Spiritual Power, and launched a sneak attack with a punch towards Lin Chen.

Facing this sudden turn of events, the Divine Flame Alliance people internally cursed, sensing bad news, but Lin Chen quickly reacted.

As Xue Yuanba attacked, a silver broadsword flew out from Lin Chen’s brow, colliding with the force of Xue Yuanba’s punch.

However, Xue Yuanba was an extremely powerful fighter nearing the Creation Realm, his strength formidable. Although the broadsword blocked some of Xue Yuanba’s attack, there was still some force that struck Lin Chen, sending him flying.

Lin Chen had not expected Xue Yuanba’s strength to be so great as he spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

When Xue Yuanba sneak attacked Lin Chen, Yan Yue was the first to sense it and immediately shot towards Xue Yuanba, landing a palm on his back.

Xue Yuanba, due to focusing entirely on Lin Chen, didn’t notice Yan Yue’s attack and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, heavily injured, and fled the scene with the other members of Red Soul Hall.

Yan Yue hadn’t expected Xue Yuanba would go so far as to sustain a hit from himself, just to injure Lin Chen.

Yan Yue could understand that Xue Yuanba’s recent action was meant to kill Lin Chen.

If it were not for Lin Chen’s broadsword blocking some of the attack, Lin Chen might have already been dead.

At that moment, Lin Chen hurriedly took an elixir, internally cursing the Dragon Fang Dagger.

With Lin Chen’s current level of Cultivation, to contend with a fighter like Xue Yuanba, he had to rely on the force of the Dragon Fang Dagger or the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.

Lin Chen had anticipated that Xue Yuanba might make a move against him, hence he had discreetly alerted the Dragon Fang Dagger to be ready to counter any unexpected actions from Xue Yuanba.

As expected, Xue Yuanba did attack, but the Dragon Fang Dagger let him down, allowing Xue Yuanba’s attack to injure Lin Chen.

Although the Dragon Fang Dagger threw out the Soul-Cleaving Blade, blocking most of Xue Yuanba’s strength, Lin Chen’s Cultivation after all was only at the Peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, and he was still wounded.

This was the first time Lin Chen felt the Dragon Fang Dagger was somewhat unreliable.

If Lin Chen really had died at the hands of Xue Yuanba, the consequences would have been unthinkable; after all, if a person dies, everything ends.
