Every building radiated a terrifying aura, with billions of runes lighting up on them, as if countless eyes were locked onto Long Chen and the others.
"Xia Chen, do you know how strong the foundation of the Lingwen Pavilion is? I've already set up a trap and am waiting for you. Do you really think a single Yin-Yang Locking Talisman will give you a sure victory?"
Before, I didn't want to make a big move, but now, hmph, everything that needed to be destroyed has been destroyed, and I have nothing left to hold back.
Ji Wuying is truly a waste. What so-called top prodigy of the Blood Killing Hall? He's not even as good as a third-rate assassin. An assassin going to fight someone else's strength—I've lived so many years and never seen anyone so foolish.
But it doesn't matter. His death won't change anything, let alone your fate. Gongsun Xuan sneered.
"Xia Chen, considering our past friendship, if you're willing to turn over a new leaf, our Lingwen Pavilion is still willing to accept you. As for today's unpleasantness, we can let bygones be bygones. I can pretend nothing happened, and we can get along well." Gongsun Ziyi spoke up.
"Hahaha..."
Xia Chen laughed bitterly in anger, "You've really learned a lot. You two are the most shameless people I've ever met, no contest."
You clearly wanted to harm me, but from your tone, it sounds like you're the real victims.
How? You still need to protect your masks, planning to use them to deceive the world in the future?
You're overthinking it. From today on, there will be no more Lingwen Pavilion in this world, nor will there be Gongsun Xuan and Gongsun Ziyi anymore. Gongsun
Ziyi had been pretending to be calm, but as soon as Xia Chen said this, her face immediately turned cold and stern:
"Since you're looking for death, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
"Buzz!"
At that moment, the entire grand formation inside the Lingwen Pavilion trembled, and countless sharp swords appeared, billions aimed at Xia Chen and the other two.
But whether it was Xia Chen, Guo Ran, or Long Chen, their expressions were calm, showing no sign of fear, nor any intention to defend or flee. They simply watched Gongsun and Xuanzu Sun quietly, their calmness making them shudder.
"Kill them!"
Gongsun Ziyi didn't know why, but her heart grew increasingly uneasy and fearful. Suddenly, her face twisted as she shouted sternly, giving the order directly.
But after waiting a long time, the buildings still roared and exploded, their swords pointed at Xia Chen and the other two, but no attack was launched.
"This ..."
Gongsun Xuan and Gongsun Ziyi panicked instantly. Gongsun Xuan shouted fiercely, "Attack!" But
after several breaths, apart from the roar of the formation, the world fell into a deathly silence.
The worst is the sudden silence of the air, everyone is shocked—what on earth is going on?
Xia Chen looked at the panicked Gongsun Xuan and Gongsun Ziyi and said, "Do you know how foolish you are?"
I appreciate your help, and I've been studying all kinds of runes with all my might and have been continuously strengthening the grand array over the past six months.
On the surface, you told me it was to guard against threats from major forces like Qinghe Sect, Fushengdao, and Tianfu Sect.
But I know your ambition, because over the years, they've been openly and secretly suppressing the Lingwen Pavilion. You're someone who always takes revenge—you're preparing to swallow them up... When
Xia Chen said this, the expressions of some of the elders present changed, and they couldn't help but look at Gongsun Xuan.
Gongsun Xuan was both shocked and angry: "Don't listen to his nonsense. He's deliberately trying to sow discord between us." "
Xia Chen ignored Gongsun Xuan and continued,
"Besides helping you decipher various runes, I also work hard every day to strengthen the grand formation and make it even stronger.
I knew that one day, I would eventually leave the Lingwen Pavilion. I hoped that when I left, the Pavilion would become the overlord of the Futian Star Domain, no longer being bullied, and I could completely follow my boss with complete peace of mind.
I study day and night, constantly transforming things, but you don't know this. I just hope that one day, I can give you a surprise.
But unexpectedly, you gave me a thunderclap first. You lied to me, and what I hate most is deception. As
he spoke, Xia Chen gritted his teeth, his face twisted with rage. Every warrior in the Dragon Blood Legion was brave and fearless. They weren't afraid of death, but they feared being deceived, which they couldn't accept.
"You don't need to shout anymore. Those who controlled the grand formation are already dead. Now, I'm the only one who can control it." As Xia Chen spoke, a delicate formation disk appeared in his hand.
Usually, the smallest formation plates were palm-sized, while the largest were about the size of a chessboard. But the one Xia Chen held was only the size of a walnut, covered in runes thinner than a strand of hair.
"This is the core of the entire grand array inside the Lingwen Pavilion, except for the Heaven-Shrouding Defensive Array. I have placed the Yin-Yang Locking Heaven Talisman on the Zhetian Defense Array, and I have taken full control of the grand formation inside the pavilion. Now, do you understand who is the real fish in the jar?" Xia Chen said coldly.
Gongsun Ziyi quietly hung one hand behind her back. Xia Chen noticed this little gesture and sneered, "
You don't believe me?" Keep trying, and you'll know what despair really means. Gongsun
Ziyi's face grew increasingly grim. She was secretly activating the array disk in the building where she was located, only to find it had already failed. Just as Xia Chen said, everything was under his control.
Gongsun Ziyi secretly glanced at Gongsun Xuan, but at this moment, Gongsun Xuan was just as flustered as she was. In this situation, he was panicked and couldn't think of any solution.
Xia Chen looked at the exquisite formation plate in his hand, a trace of pain appearing on his face: "Ziyi, do you know?" This was originally a gift I wanted to give you. Look, your name is engraved on it, and the color is your favorite pink. Xia
Chen turned the formation plate around, and sure enough, beneath it was the character 'Zi Yi' engraved, and the characters were enclosed in beautiful patterns, clearly showing his meticulous care.
When Gongsun Ziyi saw those two words, she burst into tears. Only now did she realize how foolish she had been.
"I wanted to repay the Lingwen Pavilion, but in the end, it was destroyed by my hand; The gift I gave you ultimately becomes a weapon that kills you. Truly, life is unpredictable and fate plays tricks. Xia Chen's voice was low, filled with endless sadness.
"Xia Chen, I ...," Gongsun Ziyi choked up.
"Buzz"
abruptly, the formation trembled, and beams of divine light shot out. Instantly, someone in the crowd was struck by a sword, snow and mist filled the sky, and hundreds of powerful warriors died in an instant.
Everything happened so suddenly that everyone was thrown into chaos, staring at Xia Chen in terror.
"Don't panic. The people I killed were the ones who insulted and provoked me just now, threatening to kill me. As for the rest, behave yourself—I won't take your lives." Xia Chen said coldly.
After speaking, Xia Chen looked at Gongsun Xuan and slowly raised the formation disk in his hand.
"Buzz."
Just as Xia Chen raised the formation disk in his hand, Gongsun Xuan suddenly shot out a talisman with a whistling sound. As soon as it appeared, heaven and earth trembled.
"Thunderous Talisman!"
Someone exclaimed, instantly recognizing it as Gongsun Xuan's famous talisman. As soon as the Thunderbolt Talisman appeared, it appeared right in front of Xia Chen, moving at an unparalleled speed. He didn't give Xia Chen a chance to react at all.
A mocking smile appeared on Xia Chen's face. In front of him, the formation disk in his hand moved slightly, and a multicolored shield appeared before him.
