Chapter 1448: Chapter 1419: Eradicating Future Threats

The entrance to the Enchanted World.

The slaughter continued, as no one was willing to easily surrender their gains from the Enchanted World.

After all, it’s not without danger in there; those who dare to enter are risking their lives for this opportunity, and who would willingly hand over their spoils?

However, Xuanlian Commerce Chamber’s people were too strong, so even if they didn’t want to, they had to give in. Besides, being the first to stick one’s neck out is usually something only those unafraid of death would do.

Previously, without a leader, no one resisted, so both sides were at a stalemate.

But once there was a leader, the battle commenced.

“Kill them!”

“Charge out!”

A group of loose cultivators screamed from the depths of their throats, fighting fiercely while rushing outward.

Of course, most of them didn’t actually want to make enemies of Xuanlian Commerce Chamber; their goal was simply to protect their spoils and find a place to hide and cultivate.

So during the fighting, most people headed outward.

Faced with the charge of so many martial artists, even if they were loose cultivators, Xuanlian Commerce Chamber’s people couldn’t hold the line, and many rushed out immediately.

Some truly couldn’t stand Xuanlian Commerce Chamber’s tyranny and wanted to take down a few of their martial artists, conveniently picking up a few rings.

The scene was chaotic, with a large number of martial artists fiercely battling each other.

Even Xuanlian Commerce Chamber’s people found themselves somewhat helpless despite their strength.

The only Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage authority in the scene was also surrounded and attacked. Even though the attackers’ cultivation was lower than his, the sheer number overwhelmed him.

Moreover, he had already been injured earlier from Li Chen’s sneak attack.

“Damn it! Damn it! How did it come to this?” This Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert cursed inwardly.

Meanwhile, his hatred for Li Chen surged.

In his view, if Li Chen hadn’t intervened, these scum wouldn’t dare to resist, and Xuanlian Commerce Chamber would reap great rewards this time.

Even he could secretly gain quite a few benefits.

But everything was ruined!

Ruined by that guy who had ambushed him!

“Get lost!!”

With a furious roar, the Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert blasted many of those around him away and immediately charged towards one individual.

He wanted to kill to make an example!

After all, his cultivation was higher than the others, and despite being injured, he still managed to disperse those attacking him.

And his target was Hujin!

Because he had seen earlier that the person who ambushed him was talking with this guy.

“Die, scum!”

The violent True Yuan surged immediately, enveloping Hujin.

Hujin’s face changed. Even though he had gained an inheritance, he had just obtained it and hadn’t even started practicing, and his cultivation was lacking by a huge margin—only at the Heavenly Boundary Early Stage. Facing an all-out strike from an Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert, he couldn’t withstand it.

“Boom!!”

As expected, Hujin was blasted away with a single blow, spewing blood from his mouth.

That blow nearly cost him his life.

“You damned scum, daring to defy my Xuanlian Commerce Chamber. When our president comes, you will all be annihilated!” The Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert roared.

Hearing his words, a few people around him had flickering eyes.

They indeed had anger in attacking this Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert, but also an eye on the rings he possessed.

As a martial artist of the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber, he was naturally wealthier than them, and his cultivation was higher than everyone else. If they could kill him, their gains would surely increase.

But at the same time, it meant confronting the terrifying existence of the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber.

To these loose cultivator martial artists, the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber was indeed a colossal entity.

“Today, if you are willing to help me capture the others and recover some losses, I am authorized not to hold you responsible. I may even share some of what others have lost,” the Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage expert swept his gaze over those attacking him.

Those daring to attack him were definitely martial artists of the Envy Heaven Realm, and upon hearing his words, many wavered.

Bleeding from the heart, the Envy Heaven Realm Late Stage chief was trying to recoup losses because he knew that those who ran away couldn’t be caught anymore. But if he could capture those still present, he could recover quite a bit.

In his eyes, the Enchanted World’s gains were already theirs.

“What do you think?” the chief shouted loudly, “If you do well, I can recommend you to join Xuanlian Commerce Chamber.”

Hearing his words, the surrounding people’s eyes flickered even more.

Just at that moment, a mocking voice came through.

“Nice talk!”

“Who?!” Upon hearing this voice, the man in charge immediately roared in anger.

“Take a guess.” Li Chen’s figure flickered and appeared in the sight of everyone. Supporting Hujin, he directly fed him a Fundamental Pill, then coldly stared at the person in charge of the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber.

“Speaking as you are, are you trying to lure all these friends to your Xuanlian Commerce Chamber and then catch them all at once?” Li Chen sneered.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, a few people who had flickering eyes were suddenly shocked.

“Once at the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber, won’t everything be at your discretion? Even if these friends help you here, they participated in the siege earlier. If you bear a grudge, what ability do they have to resist you at the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber?” Li Chen’s words struck at the hearts of these few people.

Like a heavy hammer, it instantly woke them up.

Yes, they were involved in the siege of this person. Even if they went to the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber, with their strength, they might not be able to protect their belongings and could even be captured by the person in charge who resents them. By then, not to mention their belongings, even their lives might not be under their control.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the person in charge was filled with hatred. Although this was indeed his intention, he still said, “Nonsense! Who am I that I need to lie? I sincerely invite you to join our Xuanlian Commerce Chamber and ascend to the Martial Summit together.”

Li Chen shook his head, pointed at the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist, then pointed at his own face.

Although he didn’t continue speaking, his gesture made his meaning quite clear.

Are you shameless?

The late-stage Envy Heaven Realm person in charge was almost infuriated to death by Li Chen. A mere Mid-Heaven Realm martial artist dares to mock him like this?

His already injured chest couldn’t help but surge with Qi-Blood, sending waves of pain.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we are all loose cultivators.” Li Chen said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, several people’s hearts tightened.

Li Chen was reminding them of their identity. They are loose cultivators, and loose cultivators should unite to resist these forces. Even if they wish to join certain forces, without powerful strength or special abilities, being a loose cultivator might be more carefree.

Nodding, a few of them hesitated no longer and instead, displayed killing intent towards the Envy Heaven Realm martial artist.

At this point, the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist realized that whatever he said was useless. These few people had already made up their minds.

“Don’t worry about those people anymore, kill them for me!” The late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist immediately shouted to those beside him, telling them not to intercept those martial artists anymore. He needed to save his life now; if they continued to be besieged, he would surely face a life-threatening situation.

Something’s wrong!

The person in charge suddenly recalled something and looked at Li Chen.

The other few seemed to recall something too and also looked at Li Chen.

Previously, they saw Li Chen escape. Similarly, they saw another late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist pursue him.

But now, Li Chen had returned, so where was that late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist?

“Um… Master Lin, where’s the martial artist who chased you?” a loose cultivator couldn’t help but ask.

“Dead.” Li Chen’s expression was calm.

“What?!” The late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist trembled in shock, as did everyone else, showing the same expression.

Li Chen only had Mid-Heaven Realm cultivation, while the one who chased him was a late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist. A whole major realm difference, yet now Li Chen returned, telling them that the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist… was dead?

Even Hujin, next to Li Chen, displayed a look of disbelief.

How could a Mid-Heaven Realm late stage possibly kill an Envy Heaven Realm late stage martial artist?

It’s simply impossible!

The gap was too big.

But now, Li Chen indeed stood in front of them, and the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist who chased him was utterly gone.

This is the fact, leaving nothing more to say.

“What… did you do?” Even the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist couldn’t help showing a look of horror.

“Nothing.” Li Chen shrugged. “He wanted to kill me, I didn’t want to die, so I killed him.”

Wow!

Everyone was frightened by Li Chen’s words.

It’s simple to say, but for a Mid-Heaven Realm late stage to kill an Envy Heaven Realm late stage, only Li Chen would know how difficult that is.

As a result, the surrounding glances toward the late-stage Envy Heaven Realm martial artist grew increasingly bizarre.

Since one Envy Heaven Realm late stage was already dead, then this one…

“Everyone, the Xuanlian Commerce Chamber is unbeatable for us.” Li Chen suddenly spoke: “Any of us that’s targeted might end up dead.”

Everyone looked at Li Chen, as if already knowing what he was going to say.

Li Chen looked at the loose cultivators, suddenly smiled broadly: “Why don’t we kill these Xuanlian Commerce Chamber martial artists here to eliminate future troubles?”

In Li Chen’s smile, there was a chilling killing intent.
