Chapter 1195: Chapter 1193 You Are Courting Death (1st Update)

After a brief silence.

“I want a ship.” Yuan Tianyan was the first to break the silence. His voice was calm, yet undeniable, like the decree of a Heavenly Monarch, the ultimate truth, a divine proclamation.

He was only one person, but he wanted a ship. A ship with eight seats!

One seat represents one life.

Yet, no one dared to refute him. After all, there were still seven other ships to contest for, providing a slim chance of survival. But provoking Yuan Tianyan meant certain death.

The next moment, Yuan Tianyan’s figure moved, transforming into a speck of light landing on a ship in the southwestern direction.

Indeed, once he stood on it, the seemingly small, ancient boat trembled slightly before settling down, fully able to bear him.

This boat could indeed save a life.

“I, Xuu Xiao, want a ship!” Seeing that Yuan Tianyan had already taken a ship, others could no longer wait. Xuu Xiao spoke directly.

After he spoke, although many people’s expressions changed, silence remained.

Xuu Xiao was likewise not to be provoked.

Perhaps Xuu Xiao’s strength was somewhat inferior to Yuan Tianyan, but Xuu Xiao was not alone!

Xuu Xiao had brought several people, and among them, an old man was at the Nine-layered Peak Fixed Character Eternal Domain, with an immensely oppressive aura and undoubtedly extraordinary strength. The Xuu family securing a ship was unsurprising.

Of course, this was also because several ships remained. Given other options, they naturally did not wish to provoke Xuu Xiao. If no other ships were left, Xuu Xiao wanting to directly take a ship would obviously be impossible.

Xuu Xiao squinted slightly, glancing around at everyone. Seeing no objections, he smiled in satisfaction, then shouted at the Xuu family members with him, “Go!”

The group from the Xuu family landed on a ship in the northwestern direction since they had a total of ten people, but one ship could only hold eight.

Therefore, two remained behind. The two young men the Xuu family left were at the Fifth Level Realm in the Fixed Character Eternal Domain.

It seemed they were abandoned by Xuu Xiao, yet the two did not show the slightest panic. Instead, they remained calm, as if they had already considered their situation.

Sure enough, the next moment, after Xuu Xiao and the others stabilized on the small boat, Xuu Xiao looked at Yuan Tianyan: “Young Master Yaun, would it be possible to borrow two seats?”

As he spoke, Xuu Xiao raised his hand, and a flicker of light moved toward Yuan Tianyan. Yuan Tianyan caught it; it was a Semi-Mortal Shedding Level Elixir.

Yuan Tianyan accepted the elixir without a change in expression and smiled, “Of course.”

“Xuu Ting, Xuu Yin, aren’t you going to thank Young Master Yaun?” Xuu Xiao smiled gratefully, then said to the two young Xuu family members.

Xuu Ting and Xuu Yin quickly moved toward Yuan Tianyan’s ship.

Once on the ship, the two bowed deeply to Yuan Tianyan at ninety degrees.

Thus, all ten from the Xuu family were preserved, without losing a single one, and Xuu Xiao was particularly shrewd. He only occupied one ship, with the additional two seats borrowed from Yuan Tianyan, not forcibly taking another ship due to his strength.

Presently, besides Yuan Tianyan, who dared to take two ships? Any who attempted would likely face public outrage.

Xuu Xiao had self-awareness, avoiding provoking public resentment as much as possible.

“We from the Pang Family want a ship.” Next, an elder of the Pang Family spoke. He squinted slightly, his aura dark and voice cold. As he spoke, he cast a deep gaze at Su Chen, the murderous intent in his eyes scarcely masked.

Pang Qian from the Pang Family had already died at Su Chen’s hands. In fact, no matter the gains from this expedition, the Pang Family would consider it a loss. Yet, the elder persisted.

First, Su Chen was not dead yet. His main reason for staying was to find an opportunity to kill Su Chen and report back to the family head.

Second, if the ruins held any treasures, obtaining them could somewhat offset the loss brought by Pang Qian’s death.

The Pang Family had initially come with nine people, and after Pang Qian’s death, only eight remained, perfect for occupying one ship.

As the elder of the Pang Family demanded a ship, many people’s expressions changed, some unsatisfied, yet none voiced opposition.

The elder of the Pang Family was still extremely powerful; in the current company, besides Yuan Tianyan, likely no others dared claim the ability to suppress the elder.

With the Pang Family boarding a ship.

Three ships were claimed, leaving five remaining.

“We from the Xing Family want a ship.”

“We from the Qiu Family want a ship.”

“We from the Feng Family want a ship.”

“We from the Great Slayer Sect want a ship.”

“We from the Yuan Family want a ship.”

……

Then, Xing Gu, Qiu Shuang, Feng Liu, Sima Ling, and Yuan Mengyuan spoke in unison.

Exactly five forces, exactly five First-Order Powers.

And, excluding the three ships already taken by Xuu Xiao, the elder of the Pang Family, and Yuan Tianyan, exactly five ships remained.

They intended to divide them entirely!

At this point, the remaining thousand or so martial cultivators from Second and Third Level Powers and the loose cultivators, already pushed to the extreme by the threat of death, saw red in their eyes.

“Why?”

“Damn it! Kill!!! If they won’t let us live, then they won’t live either!”

“Damn it~~~ Kill!”

“Is a First-Order Power scary? Damn it!”

“Kill them all.”

……

Facing life and death, they went mad. The purple seawater was nearly about to flood, and time was running out. Now, who didn’t want to survive?

The remaining martial cultivators, not from the First-Order Powers, almost all lost their minds.

They started to fight.

Boom!

Crack!

Hiss!

……

The noise was deafening, the air howling, knives blazing, swords futile, fists shaking, palm seals ethereal, heavy hammers thunderous.

For a moment, Mysterious Qi surged, the colors dazzling, Evil Qi soared, and supreme ripples echoed.

Each surviving martial cultivator was strong; otherwise, they would have perished long before, unable to reach this point. Previously, nearly one hundred thousand martial cultivators had died, and those remaining were the elite, with significant strength.

Plus, they were fighting desperately. Some even fought with their Essence Blood, fully in a state of life-and-death battle, causing great pressure on the martial cultivators from the Yuan Family, Qiu Family, Great Slayer Sect, Feng Family, and Xing Family.

Including Su Chen, Qiu Shuang, Yuan Mengyuan, Sima Ling, and others were all attacked, moreover besieged, with dozens and even hundreds attacking together.

“Damn it! What do you intend to do? Stop it, or the Great Slayer Sect won’t let you off.”

“I’m from the Yuan Family, you’re courting death!!!”

“Once out of these ruins, Feng Family will hunt you down, aahhh…”

……

The martial cultivators from the First-Order Powers roared, angrily roaring, but to no avail.
