176 Chapter: 174
"Nan Wansheng and Zhou Xuzi looked at Yun Che with incredulous expressions. It looked like they could not believe what they had just heard; their minds could not process it.
Who was Nan Wansheng? He was the strongest God Emperor of the strongest Royal Realm within the Southern Divine Region! Even the Brahma God Realm didn't dare to openly say that they would kill him! Yet, a Divine Spirit Realm did just that.
Let alone them, everyone who had gathered today for Huan Caiyi's coronation looked dumbfounded. There was only one question in their minds: Is Yun Che dumb?
"Young man… have you lost your mind?" Zhou Xuzi could not help but ask. They had just saved his life, and now he once again threw it away. With his remark, even they couldn't save him now!
Before, the situation was ambiguous as no one knew the reason for the bad blood between Yun Che and Nan Wansheng, so he could stand for Yun Che and protect him.
It was not the case anymore. It was Yun Che who provoked Nan Wansheng; he had a valid reason to just kill him for humiliating a God Emperor!
"Hahaha! Did you hear that, Eternal Heaven God Emperor, Goddess Ying'er? This brat said he will kill me. So if I kill him now, you people shouldn't interfere any longer. If you do so, I'll consider that as declaring a war against my Royal Realm!"
Zhou Xuzi frowned before he released a long sigh.
"Young but stupid." He shook his head and took a step back, a clear indication that he won't be interfering anymore.
Nan Wansheng looked at Ying'er and narrowed his eyes.
"Goddess Ying'er, will you please step aside."
Before Ying'er could reply, Yun Che's voice once again rang loudly within everyone's ears.
"I don't understand, why are you people even fighting among each other when none of you would be leaving this place alive? Are you so eager to amuse me with your clownish performance?"
"Watch your words, young man." Zhou Xuzi frowned and glared towards Yun Che. His kind self aside, he won't take any disrespect towards himself.
Obviously, he didn't take Yun Che seriously. Let alone Divine Spirit Realm, even if he was a peak Divine Master, it would be impossible for him to kill them.
"Oh, and what if I don't?" Yun Che smirked and looked towards Zhou Xuzi. "Zhou Xuzi, tell me, will Eternal Heaven Realm exchange Eternal Heaven Pearl for your life?"
Zhou Xuzi's eyes narrowed. Confused, he once again checked Yun Che's cultivation, yet the answer was the same; he really was Divine Spirit Realm. Zhou Xuzi could not understand where his confidence was coming from.
"Hahahaha! Is this the person you were protecting, Eternal Heaven God Emperor? You really have stooped so low." Nan Wansheng didn't forget to throw mud on Zhou Xuzi's face, promoting his expression to turn ugly.
Zhou Xuzi took a deep breath and looked towards Yun Che, a chilling light passed through his eyes.
"I will give you a chance, young man. Cripple yourself and commit suicide, and I'll let this matter aside. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."
From Zhou Xuzi's expression, anyone could tell that he was angry. The fact that he still hasn't made a move to kill Yun Che showed how patient he was. This made people below look at him with admiration. After all, not everyone can remain calm in the face of such humiliation.
Yun Che not only threatened him but also the Eternal Heaven Realm behind him. It was surprising that Zhou Xuzi hadn't just killed him on the spot.
"My lord, preparations are done." Xuerong suddenly appeared beside Yun Che and bowed. "I have sealed this realm. No one can enter it nor can leave it without my permission."
Yun Che raised his hand and gently caressed Xuerong's tender cheeks.
"You did great, Rong'er. I appreciate it."
"I live to please you, my lord."
Nan Wansheng and Zhou Xuzi's eyes widened. Their divine senses instantly spread out, and they soon realized that their Divine Sense could not go past the Flame God Realm. As Xuerong had said, there were multiple barriers surrounding the whole Flame God Realm.
But what was even more shocking was that they could not get past them with their strength! The barriers were strong enough to seal them completely within the Flame God Realm!
"What in heaven…" Zhou Xuzi felt his chest constricting, and a deadly premonition rose within his heart. He looked at Yun Che and then at Xuerong bowing towards him, causing him to feel slightly apprehensive. "Who are you?"
Even Ying'er had a rare serious expression on her face.
She had already predicted that Yun Che was the lord Xuerong was talking about, so she wanted to play a little to see if he was worthy of her attention. She didn't think she would be trapped with other God Emperors too.
What surprised her even more was that a peak Divine Master could create barriers strong enough to hold them inside!
Suddenly, a hand ripped out of the space and went for Yun Che's neck, wanting to kill him instantly. It stunned everyone. But before the hand could reach Yun Che, another hand appeared from behind Yun Che and collided with the incoming old hand.
A loud explosion happened, and the owner of the hand was pulled out of the space. He landed beside Qianye Ying'er with a serious expression, blood dripping down from his hand as he looked towards the silver-gold haired woman that stood beside Yun Che, a large smirk.
"Did you think you could hide from the eyes of this noble one?"
"... Young will surpass the old. Miss, someone of your exalted status and talent who has reached the peak of the Divine Master realm, why are you protecting such a weak man? Didn't you say, a strong woman likes a strong man?"
"Hahaha! Such cheap provocation won't have any effect on this noble one!"
The Golden Crow laughed loudly; her voice showed her arrogant and prideful nature.
Weak man? The Golden Crow wanted to laugh. If Yun Che was a weak man, who dared to call himself strong? She firsthand knew the absurdness of Yun Che's horrifying talent.
As Xuerong had said, strength had no meaning to Yun Che. If he wanted to be strong, he was strong. If he wanted to be weak, he was weak.
His one thought defined what was strong and weak; this was absolute strength that even the Golden Crow, despite being a billion times more powerful than Yun Che, feared and revered.
In the Golden Crow's eyes, the moment Yun Che had targeted these people, they were already dead. Even if the whole Primal Chaos gathered here today, it was impossible to save them.
Gu Zhu took a step closer to Qianye Ying'er and sent a sound transmission to her.
{Miss, that young man is dangerous… We should leave as soon as possible.}
{... Can you break the barrier, Uncle Gu?}
{Forgive me, Miss… but…}
Ying'er frowned.
Not only could they not break the barrier, but even the sound transmission was blocked from reaching outside.
That meant they were effectively sealed within the Flame God Realm.
Unless they broke the barrier or killed its user, it was impossible to leave this place any longer.
Ying'er's golden eyes moved towards Yun Che, a deep, thoughtful look appeared within her eyes. She had never thought that this seemingly arrogant man would have such means to seal God Emperors, the strongest beings of the Primal Chaos.
"You must be Gu Zhu; I was waiting for you."
"You… know me?" Gu Zhu looked at Yun Che with surprise.
One should know he was someone whose existence was not known to many within the God Realm. Yet the fact that Yun Che knew made the situation all the more dangerous within Gu Zhu's heart.
Yun Che was definitely not what he made himself look like. In Gu Zhu's heart, he had already attributed Yun Che to the same level as Qianye Ying'er, someone who never makes a move unless they are absolutely sure of their win.
"Of course, I do." Yun Che smirked and looked towards Qianye Ying'er. "Aren't you a slave of the Brahma God Emperor sent to keep an eye on his daughter?"
Qianye Ying'er frowned. She looked towards the silent Gu Zhu, who remained quiet, her eyes narrowing slightly.
"Qianye Ying'er… This is the first time we have met with each other, and I must say, you didn't disappoint me at all." Yun Che called out to her, causing her to look towards him. He smirked and asked. "Do you know who killed your mother?"
"You…" Gu Zhu looked towards Yun Che with a scared expression. Feeling that he must stop him this instant, otherwise, whatever was about to come out of his mouth might destroy the life of Qianye Ying'er. But looking at the Golden Crow and Xuerong that stood on both sides of Yun Che like loyal guards, he knew there was nothing he could do but listen to him with a helpless expression.
"What do you mean?" Qianye Ying'er's expression had turned frosty, and her eyes were extremely cold as she looked towards Yun Che with a piercing gaze.
Seeing this, the smile on Yun Che's face widened. He was enjoying this situation way too much!
