Chapter 1482: Chapter 1039: Revenge (3k)

Tyrant Washington held the head of a master from the Tianyan Association, knelt on one knee on the open ground in front of the Immortal Palace, and greeted the arrival of the Bronze Demon God with an extremely humble demeanor.

It was as if he had entered the relic not for opportunities, but merely to help this great person kill enemies.

Meanwhile, a more bloody slaughter had begun in the distance.

When the Tyrant struck down a player from the Tianyan Association, the bloody struggle between the three player forces became inevitable.

And he had set an example for his subordinates and allies.

Now that Li Changhe had revealed his identity, they indeed had several choices.

The first was naturally to flee; being killed while competing for opportunities in the relic meant dying in vain.

The second option was to fight to the death with Li Ba, joining forces with the Tianyan Association. Even if they couldn’t kill Li Ba, they could at least finish off all the Great Wall players except for him. With so many players here, they might actually be able to seal or repel Li Ba. Of course, there was also a high probability of being annihilated.

Or... they could compromise with Li Ba.

Compared to the high difficulty and low survival rate of joining forces to oppose Li Ba, the strongest under the Demigod rank, and the Great Wall players, they decisively chose the plan with less risk.

As a result, the three forces fought each other. They shouted, either to slay the Tianyan Association’s strong for General Li Ba or to avenge the Great Wall players. They killed each other in a frenzy.

Casualties soon occurred; the clashes between players made the scene increasingly chaotic.

"Although he’s the General of the current age, he is not really at Demigod realm. No, even if he were a true Demigod. With our number of high-level players, we could literally stack our bodies high enough to kill him!" a player from the Red Fist faction cried out in grief and fury, "Stop! Let’s join forces against Li Ba!"

He was a senior player from a large guild in a Western country, closely associated with the Bloodriders.

So, upon entering this Task, he quickly cooperated with Red Fist and joined the fleet. Not to mention avenging the Blood River, but at least it showed his hostility towards Li Ba.

Now, this became the reason he was attacked.

Even though he was neither from the Tianyan Association nor a strong figure from the Book of Heaven, he was besieged by several Black Palace players.

"We will always choose the option with the greatest chance of survival!" a Black Palace player who had previously called him brother coldly replied and chopped off his neck with a single slash.

And those Black Palace and Round Table players who had killed Great Wall players in past Tasks were even forsaken by their own teammates, left to be attacked by the strong from the Red Fist faction.

In front of the Immortal Palace, the Tianyan Association players were overwhelmed by the Immortal Cavalry due to a sneak attack from Tyrant Washington that killed one of their main combatants.

At this moment, Luo Qiao was completely desperate. The move by Tyrant Washington completely cut off their possibility of resisting Li Ba.

She activated her own Sequence and released all her Symbiotic Bodies, holding back the approaching Yun Ting.

And she madly rushed towards the Immortal Palace, shouting, "Does the Celestial Court intend to sit by idly? It was us who opened this relic for you. Without us, the inheritance and magical items you left behind would be forever covered in dust!"

In her view, only a plea to the small Celestial Court could stop Li Ba now. Although this relic world wasn’t connected to the void and didn’t have demigods or stronger beings, Jianmu was the number one Divine Tree in Hua Country’s mythology, and within its own created space, it held terrifying power. Perhaps it could stop Li Ba!

The Heavenly Court Remnant Clan frowned upon hearing this; indeed, it was as this woman said. Their small Celestial Court had been awakened by the Book of Heaven. Otherwise, they wouldn’t know how many more years would have to be spent in this world.

But in fact, before Jianmu had established this world, it had left some contingency plans in the mortal realm.

If there were still members of the Human Race who practiced to the level of Celestial, they could sense the Celestial Court jade tokens scattered throughout the world.

When four jade tokens were gathered, one could sense the existence of the small Celestial Court.

This was to ensure that thousands of years later, surviving strong members of the Human Race could find the small Celestial Court.

But as the years passed, all arrangements lost their effect. Jianmu waited for tens of thousands of years... now only awakened by the Tianyan Association...

If it were said that there hadn’t been any intervention from the Book of Heaven in this process, Jianmu wouldn’t believe it.

However, within the depths of the small Celestial Court, Jianmu’s voice still echoed: "We will not intervene, but you have already passed the trial. You can receive our divine gift. No matter who you are or what your purpose is, as long as you are of the Human Race, and have passed the trial, we will treat you fairly."

"Then I want those three Nine Provinces Divine Cauldrons! Quickly!" Luo Qiao shouted as the Azure Bronze Demon God drew near.

It was her last hope of survival.

The Nine Provinces Divine Cauldrons, inscribed with the Diagram of Mountains and Seas, possessed impressive power. Although without the full set of nine, they could not unleash their true power, three cauldrons should be enough for her to evade Li Ba’s attack, as long as she could escape this relic. She could flee this place through the Red Fist fleet.

"You do indeed know a lot..." Jianmu said faintly.

As his voice trailed off, three rays of light appeared within the Immortal Palace, and three bronze cauldrons flew swiftly like shooting stars.

However... just as Luo Qiao was ecstatic, thinking she could escape, she discovered that the three cauldrons suddenly veered in mid-air and landed in front of Chen Yu, who was guarding the entrance to the Immortal Palace.

"Have you forgotten that I am the top scholar of this trial?" Chen Yu tapped the bronze cauldron and smiled, "If it’s about choosing the divine gifts, I should be the first to choose."

Indeed, Chen Yu was the top military achievement earner in this trial. Luo Qiao, who was second, had to wait for her choice before selecting her gift. Thus, when she chose the Divine Ding, Chen Yu also requested the same item from Jianmu.

"You bitch!" Luo Qiao’s gallbladder and liver felt like they were about to burst.

But then, a sharp pain struck her chest.

Because a long nail had pierced through her chest from behind.

At the same time, strands of black hair wrapped around her body.

The hair penetrated the skin, severed meridians, and pulverized organs.

Luo Qiao spat out blood, and now, she really didn’t need to feel like bursting with rage... after all, she was actually being torn apart.

Yun Ting had already destroyed her Symbiotic Body and had come up behind her to backstab and pierce through her chest.

In the face of an enemy, Yun Ting would not consider any martial virtue.

"Wait... wait... Yun Ting, I can..." Luo Qiao struggled to speak as another long nail pierced through her chest. Her lungs were penetrated, and blood filled her lung cavity, causing her to cough up blood.

"Don’t worry... there’s plenty more, much more." Behind her, Yun Ting spoke calmly.

And she drove a third nail into Luo Qiao’s body.

Luo Qiao was extremely afraid, even though she had already killed so many people. But when the victim sought revenge on her, her heart was filled with nothing but fear.

That year, when Yun Ting and the female teacher were deemed to have committed suicide, she was so excited. That feeling of arbitrarily deciding the life and death of others outside the law, without any responsibility, was addicting.

It was also then that she became a member of the Tianyan Association, and now the girl she had tormented was right in front of her, exacting the revenge she deserved!

"Right, I almost forgot. To kill you now would be letting you off too easy." Yun Ting suddenly stopped her actions and grabbed Luo Qiao by the neck, dragging her towards the ruin’s exit.

The combatants from the Black Palace, Round Table, and Red Fist moved aside, clearing a path for Yun Ting. Although they were not clear about the grudge between this heroic spirit and the Tianyan Association, they knew she was Li Ba’s [Friends]. They dared not cause her any harm.

And several Great Wall players escorted her.

Some Great Wall players even intervened to heal Luo Qiao, sparing her from death by blood loss.

This sparked a glimmer of hope in the otherwise despairing Luo Qiao.

As long as she could leave these ruins, she might have a chance to live.

Outside the ruins, Red Fist’s fleet was on standby within the giant city.

’Just leave the ruins... I’ll live, I will survive...’

As Yun Ting dragged her out of the ruins, she sent out a distress signal within [Friends].

Although her relationship with Red Fist was purely physical, if Red Fist still wanted to benefit from the Book of Heaven and the opportunities brought by the Tianyan Association to him, he would never abandon her.

Although she didn’t know where Yun Ting was taking her, leaving the ruins was undoubtedly the best situation for her. Neither of the Devil Kings, Li Ba and Chen Guang, had left the ruins. If Red Fist took action, she was sure to survive.

He was a powerhouse who had activated the Mythical State!

Below the Demigods, he was second only to Li Ba! If Red Fist made his move, everything would get better!

However, the distress message sent out via [Friends] received not a hint of response.

Not until Luo Qiao was hoisted up to the high walls of Kunlun Giant City.

Red Fist did not reply with any message, nor was there any support from the Red Fist fleet to be seen.

Not until at the edge of the high wall, Yun Ting shifted to Knight Rank heroic spirit and conjured a wild motorcycle.

Luo Qiao was still hopeful, hoping for Red Fist, hoping for the Book of Heaven... to come rescue her.

However, what awaited her was the faint laughter of Yun Ting: "I’ve wanted to try this for a while. My little brother’s been called the Devil King of Wall-Smearing. Let me share some of that limelight... what do you say, Luo Qiao? You know, I trusted you so much... my dear sister, now that I have something good, you’re the first I think of."

With that, she mounted the motorcycle and leaned over to press Luo Qiao’s neck down.

Then... the engine roared. The motorcycle sped down from the top of the high wall, defying the laws of physics, sketching beautiful curves on the wall, leaving behind brilliant bloodstains that looked like an artist’s impromptu painting.

The roar of the engine, the wails of a woman, the crisp laughter of a girl.

Amidst these pleasant sounds, Luo Qiao died, atop the high walls of Kunlun Giant City.

To her death, she waited for Red Fist’s intervention.

But Red Fist... could not, and dared not...

Because the Supreme King of the Extraordinary Alliance had arrived in Kunlun Giant City.

(I’m late, sorry. My throat started hurting just as I said there was no sun... I’ll try to make up posts later.)
