CHAPTER 872: CHAPTER 889: NEGOTIATION [UPDATE 1]

The Old War God was directly knocked back and flew backward, finally landing heavily on the ground.

"Boom~~" Accompanied by a loud noise, the Old War God, after falling to the ground, continued sliding, leaving a long mark on the ground. During this retreat, the nearby houses the Old War God collided with kept collapsing, turning into ruins.

The Old War God roared in anger, then raised his aura, causing the rubble around him to roll and scatter. He wanted to continue fighting, but at this moment, a phantom shadow glided through the void.

Huangfu Zhan arrived instantly beside the Old War God, pressing the Xingtian Reverse directly against the Old War God’s throat.

Now, with just a slight push, Huangfu Zhan could easily pierce through the Old War God’s throat.

...Everyone fell into silence, their eyes showing surprise, finding it hard to accept. They looked at Huangfu Zhan and the Old War God, their expressions full of pain because they knew the Old War God had failed.

It’s important to know that Duan Lingfeng was the last generation’s War God of Dragon Country, a legendary figure stronger than Ye Feng. But now, such a powerful person was defeated at Huangfu Zhan’s hands.

The Old War God looked at Huangfu Zhan with unwillingness. If it weren’t for Huangfu Zhan possessing three special-level Spirit Talismans, it would have been impossible to be defeated so easily. But everything happened too suddenly, and the Old War God wasn’t prepared.

If the Old War God had known earlier that Huangfu Zhan would cause trouble at the Lin Family, he would have prepared in advance, bringing treasures like Huangfu Zhan, similar to Spirit Talismans, that could amplify his strength.

In that case, the Old War God would have been confident to defeat Huangfu Zhan. But now it’s impossible; the Old War God only came to deliver something to Ye Feng. Even the Old War God himself didn’t expect Huangfu Zhan to attack today.

"Duan Lingfeng, you have failed!" Huangfu Zhan said, pointing his Xingtian Reverse at the Old War God.

The Old War God’s eyes showed helplessness: "Yes, I failed. Today, you won!"

Huangfu Zhan could easily kill the Old War God now, but he didn’t dare do so. It’s important to know that the Old War God represented Dragon Country, and if Huangfu Zhan dared to kill the Old War God, Dragon Country would ensure the Huangfu Family disappeared from Dragon Country.

Huangfu Zhan said, "Today, let me take away Lin Shiyu and Ye Feng!"

Upon hearing Huangfu Zhan’s words, the Old War God shook his head: "Huangfu Zhan, I know you’re angry, but why can’t you understand me? Ye Feng is the War God of Dragon Country. If you kill him, do you know the consequences? I can guarantee that if you kill Ye Feng, Dragon Country will make the Huangfu Family disappear. I’m not joking.

Not even the likes of the Shushan Sword Sect, Kunlun Sword Sect, or Penglai Immortal Pavilion would dare to do such a thing, do you believe it? You’ve already entered the secular world and killed innocent civilians, breaking the agreement. I’ve said my piece; whether or not you retreat is up to you. If you still insist on killing Ye Feng, you will bear the consequences!"

Although the Old War God had already been defeated, he showed no fear at all. He didn’t believe Huangfu Zhan would really dare kill him, and indeed, Huangfu Zhan was swayed by what the Old War God said.

It’s true; Ye Feng is the War God of Dragon Country. If Huangfu Zhan really killed Ye Feng, then the Huangfu Family would be in real trouble.

The reason Huangfu Zhan was eager to take Lin Shiyu back was because he feared pressure from the Shushan Sword Sect.

However, the Shushan Sword Sect is much weaker compared to Dragon Country. When it comes to the Shushan Sword Sect, the Huangfu Family is even more unwilling to offend Dragon Country, as Dragon Country can make the Huangfu Family disappear from its land at any time.

The authority of Dragon Country is absolute, and no faction dares to challenge the authority of Dragon Country.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Zhan angrily said, "Old War God, what do you think I can do? Lin Shiyu belongs to our Huangfu Family; is it wrong for us to take her back? As for Ye Feng, he killed my son, killed members of my Huangfu Family, do you expect me to let it go? Where does that leave the face of my Huangfu Family?"

Duan Lingfeng coldly replied, "Ye Feng has never been one to provoke and cause trouble actively. Tell me, is it all Ye Feng’s fault with your son?"

At this moment, Lin Shiyu stood out and shouted loudly, "That’s right, it’s his son, Huangfu Feiyun, who was aggressive, making my grandfather kneel, even slapping him, which is why Ye Feng intervened. If it weren’t for Huangfu Feiyun’s arrogance, he wouldn’t have lost his life. Isn’t it Huangfu Feiyun who was at fault first?"

The Old War God laughed coldly: "See, what did I say? The name of the War God is not to be insulted, his friends and family not to be bullied. If your son dares to insult my elders or friends, I would do the same and kill him!"

Upon hearing the Old War God’s words, Huangfu Zhan furrowed his eyebrows, his eyes showing pain, and he shouted angrily, "Bastard! What do you want me to do? Lin Shiyu is from the Huangfu Family, am I not allowed to take her back?"

The Old War God replied calmly, "If she voluntarily follows you back, I won’t interfere. Of course, if you still want to kill Ye Feng, I won’t stop you, but I can assure you that if Ye Feng dies, the Huangfu Family will certainly disappear!"

After hearing the Old War God’s words, Huangfu Zhan felt unspeakably frustrated. He was the victor now; he defeated the Old War God, yet it was the Old War God who was threatening him, leaving Huangfu Zhan with no way to deal with the Old War God.

Huangfu Zhan lowered his head in thought, his face very gloomy, finally raising his head to look at the Old War God, and asked loudly, "Is what you said true, that as long as Lin Shiyu voluntarily leaves with me, you won’t intervene?"

The Old War God nodded: "Naturally, if Lin Shiyu voluntarily leaves, I have no reason to stop you."

"Good!" agreed Huangfu Zhan, then looking at the Old War God: "As for Ye Feng, it can be settled, but I must take Lin Shiyu with me today, and sooner or later, I will have a battle with Ye Feng!"

The Old War God agreed: "Alright..."
