Chapter 640: Chapter 640 Retaliation

Under unanimous agreement from the Divine Flame Alliance members, Lin Chen began selling two types of Talisman Inscriptions to the Martial Artists of the Demon Race and Red Soul Hall.

However, Lin Chen’s thoughts towards these two forces were more complex, and the price he set was one Talisman Inscription in exchange for two mid-grade heavenly level magical treasures or Treasures.

This seemingly stringent condition brought joy to the Martial Artists of the Divine Flame Alliance.

They watched with concealed glee as Martial Artists from the Demon Race and Red Soul Hall were "slaughtered" by Lin Chen, and though they expressed sympathy outwardly, inwardly they felt extremely gratified.

When the Martial Artists from the Demon Race and Red Soul Hall heard the price Lin Chen had set, they felt both shock and dissatisfaction.

"Lin Chen, you’re going too far, exchanging a low-rank Fifth Grade Talisman Inscription for two Heavenly Level Mid Grade magical treasures, isn’t this blatant robbery?"

Mao Yucheng expressed his dissatisfaction with Lin Chen’s greedy behavior.

"Robbery? Do you think my actions now are any different?"

"If you find the price too high, you can choose not to buy. After all, it’s not me who’s being eroded by the death qi, and if the Martial Artists from the Dark Demon Race attack, I’d be quite happy to see you get annihilated, as that would also buy us time to escape." Lin Chen said with a cold smile.

In the end, faced with the threat of the Martial Artists from the Dark Demon Race, the crowd reluctantly handed over their magical treasures to exchange for Talisman Inscriptions with Lin Chen.

In this relic, they all had gains, so at this life-and-death moment, no one was willing to be stingy.

For those who didn’t have mid-grade heavenly level magical treasures, Lin Chen eventually expressed that he would not leave them in the lurch and was willing to help them.

Everyone initially thought Lin Chen would show kindness by giving out Talisman Inscriptions for free, but instead, Lin Chen demanded that they hand over all the Treasures they had in exchange for the Talisman Inscriptions.

"The opportunity has been given to you. It’s up to you to choose whether to exchange all you have for a life-saving Talisman Inscription or to hold tight to your Treasures and wait for the Martial Artists from the Dark Demon Race to arrive and mercilessly perish, thereby buying us time to escape. The choice is all yours," Lin Chen said coldly, looking at the crowd.

With these words, fury grew in people’s hearts.

Indeed, as Lin Chen put it so bluntly, they hastily took out all they had and exchanged for Talisman Inscriptions with Lin Chen.

In this relic, the magical treasures and Treasures acquired by the people mostly ended up in Lin Chen’s hands.

Lin Chen’s rich spoils of war incited murderous intentions among many Martial Artists, envious of the Treasures he possessed.

Not only people from Red Soul Hall and the Demon Race but even Martial Artists from the Divine Flame Alliance grew greedy.

Lin Chen was fully aware of all this but did not take it to heart.

Those who coveted his life had to consider whether to risk using the Talisman Inscriptions he had tampered with.

Despite the stirring desires in their hearts, they refrained from openly attacking Lin Chen as there were still four or five days’ journey to reach the departure portal; thus they suppressed their urges.

They knew that infighting would lead to grave trouble should they encounter the Martial Artists from the Dark Demon Race.

Moreover, if the Martial Artists from the Demon Race and Red Soul Hall overtly attacked Lin Chen, they might temporarily endure, but if Martial Artists from the Divine Flame Alliance did so, they would have to deal with all witnesses to prevent the news from reaching the alliance.

The Law Enforcement Team of the Divine Flame Alliance wouldn’t tolerate any harm done to a member of the alliance, and as Lin Chen was a genius from the Formation Sect, they would certainly not let matters rest.

Lin Chen noticed the unkind gazes from Luo Wu, Yuan Baishu, and Zhao Ziyi and sneered to himself.

These three were indeed formidable, but killing the Lin Chen of now would be no easy task.

After everyone exchanged for the Talisman Inscriptions, they once again embarked on their homeward journey.

On the afternoon of the following day, the figures of the Martial Artists from the Dark Demon Race finally appeared in everyone’s sight.

Having suffered significant losses in previous encounters with Lin Chen and others, they chose to follow from a distance instead of approaching rashly.

With the number of Dark Demon Race Martial Artists increasing behind them, the crowd began to speculate that they might be waiting for all the teams to assemble before launching a final attack.

"Everyone, the Dark Demon Race Martial Artists are gathering their forces. If we wait for them to form a large army before they attack, even if we defeat them, the cost might be enormous," Lin Chen suggested while keeping an eye on the Dark Demon Race Martial Artists behind them.

After some hesitation, everyone ultimately agreed with Lin Chen’s suggestion.

At this critical moment, no one wished to cower any longer, as their hatred towards the Dark Demon Race Martial Artists had long taken root in their hearts.

Now possessing Talisman Inscriptions capable of resisting the erosion of death qi, they resolved to vent their long-suppressed resentment.

Soon after reaching consensus, the group turned around and launched an attack on the gathering army of the Dark Demon Race.
