Chapter 253: Chapter 242: Assassination!
Two figures appeared, and the breath of life radiated, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.
Amidst these two life auras, there was something transcendent, akin to a god...
Celestial God Realm!
The appearance of this figure instantly cooled all the combat down.
An existence of the Celestial God Realm can overturn the entire battle; the appearance of two can cause another Celestial God Realm being to fall on the spot.
"Wang Xu?" The figure spoke, eyes falling on the form of Wang Xu below.
"Yes, it’s me."
Wang Xu nodded: "Senior, were you sent by the Sovereign of Mohe Cosmic Country to fulfill my wish?"
As soon as he spoke, everyone’s eyes widened, nearly stunned.
Mohe Cosmic Country!
It’s one of the Ten Extremes Great Country amongst the Great Cosmic Countries, and it ranks first. Frankly speaking, Mohe Cosmic Country is the most powerful existence among all the Great Cosmic Countries, with power overwhelming enough to easily obliterate mid-level Cosmic Countries like Tai Long, with no effort at all.
And now Mohe Cosmic Country has obtained the Invincible Country Seal, becoming a true Super Cosmic Country, gaining support from the three major forces, and more dependent cosmic countries, elevating its national power to another level, reaching another realm.
The Celestial God Realm before their eyes was actually an envoy from Mohe Cosmic Country, and listening to Wang Xu’s tone, it seemed he had invited them.
Among the two figures, one wore red armor, flames flickering at his fingertips, a lean but towering figure of three meters tall, with a pair of eerie red eyes scanning around. He held a gold token, exactly the one Wang Xu had crushed.
Evidently, these two figures were the Celestial God Realm beings who came to aid him after he crushed the gold token given to him by the Sovereign of Mohe.
Back in Qianzhong Main City, many forces extended olive branches to Wang Xu, and Mohe Cosmic Country was among them.
"This gold token, once crushed, will bring the Celestial God Realm beings from Mohe Cosmic Country to aid you. Although you declined my goodwill, I still greatly appreciate your help regarding the matter of the Super Cosmic Country quota. So you don’t need to refuse this gold token, accept it." said the Sovereign of Mohe.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xu accepted the token, settling scores with Mohe Cosmic Country.
Unexpectedly, just over a year later, Wang Xu used the gold token.
"I am ’Chi Lian’, and this is my companion ’Fierce Crow’. Speak now: your wish—so long as it’s not excessive, within our capabilities, we can fulfill it." Chi Lian the Celestial God said.
"It’s not too difficult. Just help me deal with that problem." Wang Xu extended his hand, pointing directly at the Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile.
"No... no... no!" Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile’s eyes were filled with terror. As Wang Xu’s finger landed on him, his pupils widened suddenly, and then he flew away, escaping at a speed faster than light!
"Fierce Crow!"
The other of the two figures wore a black robe, his whole body shrouded in darkness, with only two ghostly green fires as eyes. At Chi Lian’s command, Fierce Crow gathered his black robe and vanished into the void.
Soon, Wang Xu felt a surge of vast and boundless energy waves coming from beyond the Bailan Main Star, with the life aura of the Celestial God Realm erupting all around, attracting everyone’s gaze.
"Rest assured, with Fierce Crow here, that guy won’t escape." Chi Lian said casually.
Subsequently, Chi Lian acted to capture all the Cosmic Martial Artists from Shark Boat Cosmic Country in one fell swoop.
To a Celestial God Realm, whether in the Mixed Universe Realm or White Hole Level, they’re all the same, like ants to them, easily killed. But at Wang Xu’s request, space was sealed, preventing them from even self-destructing, being bound and suppressed.
"Princess Bailan, these people from Shark Boat Cosmic Country are at your disposal."
Before Princess Bailan could speak, the subordinates surged forward, blood splattering, wails echoing in their ears. In the cruel cosmos, the victor becomes king while the defeated are bandits, with no one worthy of pity.
Princess Bailan remained calm, having already moved past Xian Qu’s death, and bowed respectfully to Wang Xu: "Thank you, Wang Xu."
Wang Xu shook his head, indicating it was unnecessary.
A moment later.
The black-robed Fierce Crow reappeared out of nowhere, lifting his tattered robe to reveal the nearly unconscious, exceedingly weak Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile.
The once majestic and dignified Sovereign of Shark Boat, now filled with terror and despair, with life energy incredibly frail. In his current state, even someone in the Mixed Universe Realm could easily kill him.
Fierce Crow removed his black robe, silently stepping aside, with a hint of astonishment in Wang Xu’s gaze.
Wang Xu’s Endless Life could sense life energies, and Fierce Crow’s life energy wasn’t much different from Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile’s, yet he managed to capture the Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile alive. Knowing that capturing a Celestial God Realm alive is much more challenging than killing, requiring at least a level higher strength to barely achieve. Yet from Fierce Crow, such strong energy wasn’t sensed.
"Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile, it’s finally your turn!" This time, it was the furious Bailan Sovereign, his hatred for Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile at its peak. With a single move, he shattered Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile’s weak body, and then a sacred Bailan flower bloomed under his wrecked form, slowly rotating.
Bones shattered inch by inch, blood and flesh seemed squeezed, spurting forcefully from between the skin... Bailan Sovereign was avenging his fallen soldiers, subordinates, and the innocent souls, causing him to cast aside the dignity of a Sovereign, madly tormenting Shark Boat Tyrant Crocodile.
Wang Xu looked at this indifferently.
"Your wish has been fulfilled, and I should leave now." Chi Lian, the Celestial God, was unwilling to stay any longer, and immediately turned to leave with the Fierce Crow.
...
Three days later.
"Wang Xu, we are extremely grateful to you this time. Without your help, our Bailan Cosmic Country would probably no longer exist." Bailan Xin solemnly bowed, and the ministers in the National Hall also saluted Wang Xu together.
"You are my master’s wife, there’s no need to be so polite," Wang Xu said.
"You saved my Bailan Cosmic Country this time, and I have nothing to express my gratitude but to give you these three Divine Treasures. I hope you can accept them." The Sovereign of Bailan waved his hand, and three orbs of light fell into Wang Xu’s hands. These were three War Soldiers: a longsword, a giant axe, and a wooden staff, each exuding the aura of a god, authentic Divine Treasures.
Wang Xu wanted to refuse, but seeing the sincere, undeniable expression on the Sovereign of Bailan’s face, he had no choice but to accept.
The three Divine Treasures are the most valuable assets in the entire treasury of Bailan Cosmic Country. The Sovereign of Bailan was expressing his sincerity. He could sense the power of Chi Lian and the Fierce Crow, indicating that the cost of Wang Xu’s request was not small, at least beyond what the Sovereign could afford.
Wang Xu said he did it for Bailan Xin and his master, but the Sovereign could not let the benefactor’s goodwill be repaid with coldness, and thus willingly gave the only three Divine Treasures from the treasury to thank Wang Xu.
"I have fulfilled the will entrusted by my master. That’s all, farewell." Wang Xu no longer lingered, and after greeting everyone, he turned and left, riding the Earth away from the Bailan Main Star.
...
"It’s time to go home." The longing in Wang Xu’s heart intensified. For others, the qualification battle was over a hundred years, but for Wang Xu, it was a full two thousand years.
Two thousand years of longing, Wang Xu couldn’t wait to see his parents and wife, learn everything about them, and relive the warmth of being with them.
BOOM!!!!
Suddenly, a sharp and overbearing killing intent permeated Wang Xu’s entire body, making him feel an unprecedented crisis, as if death was standing right in front of him, with the Grim Reaper’s scythe ready to claim his life...
Terrifying, extremely terrifying!
An unprecedented horror!
A strong force was trying to kill Wang Xu!
Wham~
Spiritual Consciousness suddenly erupted, and the Cyan Blade appeared abruptly. Wang Xu’s figure instantly disappeared from the Earth.
The moment his figure vanished, a star river spanning across the void, dazzling and radiant, descended from above as if pressing down the entire star domain, slicing the Earth into two halves!
Whoosh!
Wang Xu’s figure didn’t look back, bursting with maximum speed, flying towards the distance.
"Wang Xu, you can’t escape!" A voice, like a clanging copper bell, resonated deeply in Wang Xu’s mind.
Boom!
Wang Xu felt his scalp tingle sharply, his entire being immersed in an ice cave—cold, lonely, death constantly eroding him. Wang Xu suddenly looked up, seeing the star river crossing the void coming at him.
"No... no..." Wang Xu could feel the powerful force of this strike. In front of it, he was just an ant, with no power to resist. Staring at the radiant star river, Wang Xu, like a drowning person, unconsciously widened his eyes, with fear, despair, and unwillingness magnified to the utmost at that moment.
"I don’t want to die... I don’t want to die!!" Wang Xu roared in his heart, yet his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Red Devourer!"
Suddenly, an angry roar sounded, accompanied by a thick red beam of light from below, colliding violently with the radiant star river above Wang Xu!
BAM!!!!
The intense energy fluctuation blew Wang Xu away entirely, and he suddenly awoke, seizing this opportunity to retreat violently.
"Wang Xu, come here!" It was the voice that had just aided Wang Xu, and Wang Xu’s gaze found a Celestial God Realm person in red armor, fingertips swirling with flames.
Chi Lian Celestial God, he didn’t leave!
Wang Xu immediately flew towards Chi Lian Celestial God, but at that moment, a pitch-black as ink chain, emanating a thick law aura, pierced through the void at great speed, rushing at Wang Xu.
"Hand of Nightmare!" A hoarse voice sounded, and a large black hand full of mysterious patterns suddenly emerged from behind Wang Xu, like the giant hand of a demon, seizing the chain attacking Wang Xu abruptly.
The black hand fiercely tore, and the black chain was held tightly, dragging a figure out from the void. (To be continued.
