Talisman Emperor
Chapter 2118 Leaving
Suddenly, it felt like the fog in the distance had been pulled apart by an invisible hand, and the scenery there became clear.
A skinny figure stood 3 km away. He was wearing white clothes and had a blood red spear in his backpack. The tip of the spear faced the sky and was stamped by a bright red blood clot. It looked like a blood red disciple who wanted to have fresh blood!
As he stood there leisurely, he looked handsome and noble to the extreme. He was like a beautiful expanse of landscape or a spirit that covered heaven and earth, and he remained in another world and was completely far from the mortal world.
The figures of Cangyun Ye and the others actually couldn't help but stiffen together when they saw it, and they showed clumps of shock.
Chuge Shi! What the hell is he doing here?
He was a famous figure in the high-level Shi Clan, and he had been chosen by Bloodsky to be his heir since the moment he was born. Moreover, this made him the only descendant of the Shi Clan who had earned Bloodsky's recognition throughout the year without limit that the Shi Clan had existed!
Now, Shi Chuge had become the number one expert in the Region Lord Region throughout the Shi Clan! His combat power was so great that only Suiren Kuanglan, Beiming Canghai, Tang Xiao’xiao, and Xia Ruoyuan were able to rival him!
However, unlike the other dazzling figures, Shi Chuge remained silent and practically lived in solitude. He rarely showed himself before the eyes of others.
He and his own spear fought and slaughtered at the Ancient Bloodline that the Shi Clan had set up just for him. So, no one knew exactly how powerful his current combat strength was.
The most shocking aspect was that Shi Chuge was infatuated with cultivation, and there was nothing but the Grand Dao in his heart.
Now, however, not only did he leave his secluded cultivation to participate in the Battle Protector Dao, he actually appeared in the Fog Forest and targeted Chen Xi. This caused Cangyun Ye and the others to just feel as if they were dreaming.
If someone were to say that Shi Chuge had shown himself with the intent to save them from Chen Xi, then there would probably not be anyone who believed in them in the entire Divine Dao Protector Clans!
After all, it was common knowledge that Shi Chuge was concentrated in his own world, and he was an unparalleled figure who was indifferent to the others.
But in a short time, Cangyun Ye and the others were overjoyed. They were well aware that the five high-level clans had made a joint decision before the Battle of Dao Protector even began, and that decision was to eliminate Chen Xi!
Now, Shi Chuge had shown himself here, so naturally for the sake of slaughtering Chen Xi!
That way, it would indirectly help them resolve the deadly threat that Chen Xi had brought to them.
So, how could Cangyun Ye and the others avoid feeling happy and excited?
However, they could only endure their current joyous emotions. Since Chen Xi was only 30m away from them while Shi Chuge had not even attacked, so they did not dare to act in any way that would jeopardize their current situation.
…
Chuge Shi! Chen Xi practically recognized him immediately as well. However, Shi Chuge looked completely different in Chen Xi's eyes.
While he still looked weak and a little fragile, it was the terrifying aura of a ravine or surging ocean hidden within his body.
His strong and persistent determination to fight was an extraordinary form of natural talent and character. He's like the eye of a storm. It seemed calm yet would completely rage and devour the world once it erupted!
He's a very tough opponent! Chen Xi's eyes narrowed. He noticed that when compared to Chi Qingying, Shi Chuge seemed to have a hint of aura that made him even feel fear.
However, Chen Xi was very clearly aware that Chi Qingying and Shi Chuge had completely different characters, and they took a completely different path. Thus, only true combat can determine their true strength, and other forms of judgment cannot be taken seriously.
“You want to fight fair?” Chen Xi asked calmly after a moment of silence.
“Let them go and I'll give you that chance.” Shi Chuge's gaze surged while a powerful and overwhelming aura surged out from within him. It condensed and killed as it locked firmly on Chen Xi.
Just these words alone showed that while Shi Chuge was indifferent to everything else and only concentrated on his own path towards the Dao, it was, it does not state that he does not know the way of the world or have the intelligence to engage in a battle of words.
Clearly, how could anyone who could cultivate to such a level be ordinary?
Hearing these words allowed Cangyun Ye and the others to relax completely. It didn't matter if it was when they faced Chi Qingying or Chen Xi, it made them feel horrified like they were sitting on a thorn cushion while the blade was pressed on their backs. At this moment, the stern demeanor expressed by Shi Chuge's words allowed them to finally feel a sense of security that they had not felt for a long time.
This was Shi Chuge's charm. When a person is very resilient to some extent, every word that person speaks or action that person performs carries with it immeasurable influence.
Chen Xi did not hesitate to answer. “What if I disagree?”
Shi Chuge's white clothes fluttered as he lightly raised his hand to tie his long hair, and then his sudden aura suddenly became sharp and sharp while his gaze was like an ice-cold blade that was only capable of tearing space apart.
“Then I don't mind killing you now.” His killing intent and invisible fighting intent were like ripples that quietly enveloped this expanse of heaven and earth. For a moment, all things bowed before him and the world changed.
The Talisman Armament in Chen Xi's palm screamed low and clear when facing all of this, but it eventually fell back into silence.
“Actually, you could have attacked me with these people. That would probably be the most direct and effective method. ” Chen Xi frowned as she said these words, and she seemed to be quite confused.
Cangyun Ye and the others were stunned because that was what they thought. As long as Shi Chuge attacked, then they would definitely not stand idly by. That way, they could completely destroy the opportunity Chen Xi had for survival.
“You don't just shut up and watch Dao Defiant kill them, so I won't use force against you right now.” Shi Chuge spoke frankly, and it seemed like he could not be bothered to hide his intentions. “It will go beyond my principle.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xi turned around and left. He really did not pay attention to Cangyun Ye's group, and he did not glance at Shi Chuge anymore.
He just walked quietly and calmly.
When Chen Xi's figure vanished within the fog, Shi Chuge finally raised his hand and untied his hair, and his viscous aura became flat and otherworldly again.
“Why didn't you take advantage of this opportunity to kill him?”
“Yes, that person has suffered a severe injury. This is the best time to eliminate the Savior! ”
Cangyun Ye and the others were a little unwilling to just watch when Chen Xi left, and they couldn't help but ask this question.
Shi Chuge simply glanced at them, and then all of their voices disappeared simultaneously. Moreover, a mouthful of coldness had appeared in their hearts while their expressions slightly changed.
Following which, Shi Chuge turned around and walked away as well.
“You all owe me a favor, and I will be the responsibility of your clan if you die during the Battle of Protector Dao.” His voice was calm, indifferent, and completely emotionless. Following which, Shi Chuge's figure gradually disappeared.
In an instant, the facial expressions of Cangyun Ye and the others changed. They could not figure out why Shi Chuge was acting this way, and even they were unhappy with his actions. However, they just put up with it.
What could they do when they faced Shi Chuge?
“We can survive any way.” Suoying Fu laughed with scorn.
“What should we do now?” Tai Rui frowned as she spoke.
“Generating on targeting Chen Xi. You've all seen it for yourself. We ... are not at all suitable for him. ” Cangyun Ye took a deep breath while his voice was a little bit bitter. “Maybe we shouldn't get involved in such things.”
The others are silent.
They recalled the danger and bloodshed throughout their journey here and recalled how Chen Xi still had a terrifying combat power even when he was seriously injured. They could not help but feel an extreme sense of defeat and regret in their hearts.
Perhaps only a figure like Shi Chuge could destroy a person like him?
Some time passed before Feiling Xue frowned and sighed. “However, the Battle of Dao Protector is not over. Even though we've given up, it doesn't mean that Chen Xi will give up on getting revenge on us. “
The expressions of Cangyun Ye and the others instantly turned grim while their hearts fell into chaos.
…
In the depths of the Mist Forest, Chen Xi carefully hid herself before she let out a long sigh, and a wisp of gloom appeared between her eyebrows.
Chi Qingying surprised him during the confrontation and beheaded him before leaving unhurriedly.
Afterwards, he confronted Shi Chuge, but had no choice but to give up killing Cangyun Ye's group and leave.
All of this seemed to have ended in a peaceful and safe manner, but Chen Xi clearly realized that she did not have to exercise such patience at all if she was in her prime!
Indeed, Chi Qingying and Shi Chuge were both extremely powerful, and it was even to the point that they could be considered as outstanding and unrivalled figures among the Ninth Kingdom Region Realm. However, they were not afraid of Chen Xi's opinion.
This came from the trust he had in his own combat power!
No one knew that Chen Xi had reached the most perfect point in the Ninth Kingdom Region Realm while cultivating behind closed doors in the Oracle Mountain for several hundred years. Moreover, no one knew that the cultivation in the Heart Dao and Sword Dao had reached unprecedented heights!
After all, he had defeated the number one Ninth Star Region Lord within the Chen Clan, Chen Daoyuan, while he was still in the Sixth Star Region God Region!
Unfortunately, Chen Xi was unlucky, and she suffered a surprise attack only on the 3rd day after she entered the Mist Forest. He was heavily injured by Godkill Thorn. Thus, no matter how heaven defied his battle power, it was not very helpful for the situation in which he was.
Soon, Chen Xi shook her head and stopped thinking about all that. Godkill Thorn had been devoured by the Dao Calamity Sword while the Cursed Energy within him had been completely eliminated. Although his injuries were still there, it did not take long for him to fully recover.
At that moment, Chen Xi wanted to see if figures like Chi Qingying and Shi Chuge would dare to act arrogantly before him again!
Om!
At the same time, a blood-red light shot into the sky from the mysterious and strange altar in the depths of the Mist Forest, and Chi Qingying turned her head to look into the distance as she chuckled. “Saviour, I'll be waiting for you at Slaughter Highlands. You must come there …. “
Chi Qingying stepped into the blood red light as she spoke, and then she quickly disappeared on the spot.
After which, the ancient altar once again fell into a deadly silence.
