Chapter 658 – Death of the Martial Overlord
When the crowd understood that this was the Martial Overlord’s final struggle, they screamed and cursed Zhao Danchen. However, even Xiao Lin did not dare help him, because they knew that they would also die.
“Big Brother, if this continues, the Martial Overlord will die. Should we help? I think that having Zhao Danchen and this woman as enemies is more trouble than having Zhao Wuji as an enemy,” Mo Xiaolang said with furrowed brows.
Long Chen thought for a moment and shook his head. “We need to focus on Qi Qi’s problem.”
If they attacked now, they would not be able to defeat those two, and it would also affect their plan to save Huangfu Qi. Long Chen had made a promise to Huangfu Fengchen, so he had to save her!
Mo Xiaolang understood Long Chen’s intentions.
Although the Martial Emperor was pitiful and betrayed by his own disciple, Mo Xiaolang and Long Chen saw things from a different point of view, since they had different goals. Ever since they entered the Divine Martial Empire, Long Chen was fated to become Zhao Wuji’s enemy. If Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan did not attack the Martial Overlord today, Zhao Wuji would be Long Chen’s major rival during the final fight for the Ancient Token!
Mo Xiaolang did not feel any sympathy for Zhao Wuji either. He just thought that Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan would be even more difficult to deal with.
This was a battle at the very peak of the Divine Martial Empire. Other than Long Shan, who was resting in the Battle clan, no one in the whole Divine Martial Empire was powerful enough to save the Martial Overlord!
“Die, old man ...” Zhao Danchen sneered.
Zhao Wuji was not old. Compared to other cultivators who had reached his level, he was even considered young. But Zhao Danchen wanted him dead.
“You scum! If only I knew you were such an evil person! I should not have taken you into the Martial Alliance and taught you cultivation!” Zhao Wuji’s eyes were covered with blood vessels, and he roared hoarsely. Killing intent radiated from his cold eyes.
“It’s too late now! Haha! I don’t think you ever expected this to happen, right? It’s good that you’ll die. From today onwards, I, Zhao Danchen, will rule over the Martial Alliance!” Zhao Danchen laughed like a madman.
“You ...” Zhao Wuji went mad with rage when he looked at Zhao Danchen’s infuriating face.
“Ancestors of the Martial Alliance! I was not careful, and I mistakenly took in this scorpion-hearted brat as my disciple! I will clean up this lineage even if I die!” Zhao Wuji roared, and the golden runes on his body erupted in flames. Copious amounts of power flowed from the rings into his body, causing him to almost explode. But he did not care, and he merely sneered.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji abandoned the Ancient Demon Corpse and Feng Xuan, then he shot towards Zhao Danchen like a golden shadow!
“Die, you animal!” The golden shadow instantly appeared in front of Zhao Danchen!
Zhao Danchen did not expect the Martial Overlord to launch such a strong attack right before he died. Because he had to control the Ancient Demon Corpse, he was not standing far from the battle!
Zhao Danchen’s face fell!
He never thought Zhao Wuji would drag him down to hell with him. Even if Zhao Wuji killed him, he would be killed by Feng Xuan and the Ancient Demon Corpse when they caught up. Feng Xuan would be happy to see both Zhao Danchen and Zhao Wuji dead, so despite being the fastest person, she slowed down and watched with a smirk. On the other hand, while the Ancient Demon Corpse was strong, it was not very fast ...
If Zhao Wuji killed Zhao Danchen, Feng Xuan would immediately pass the Ancient Demon Corpse to kill Zhao Wuji. Then she would be the ultimate winner!
“No!” Zhao Danchen backed away in a panic. Using his remaining arm, he pushed out a Golden Punch, thinking of using the recoil to back away. But that move was just too weak to Zhao Wuji, who was on his last struggle before death.
Zhao Danchen watched with despair as Zhao Wuji neared him.
Is this my karma? At that moment, Zhao Danchen’s world collapsed, and the shadow of death loomed over him. Zhao Wuji’s attack, which was a golden fist, was about to hit his face, and along with it came Zhao Wuji’s cold and furious glare!
Boom!
What happened next was beyond Zhao Danchen’s expectations!
When Zhao Wuji was about to hit him, his body exploded. The power flowing from the Martial Overlord rings was too much for him to handle. At the very last moment, Zhao Wuji was unable to withstand it and finally exploded into a pile of meat pieces that landed on Zhao Danchen’s body, drenching him in blood!
Bits of meat and bone hung on Zhao Danchen’s body.
Silence fell.
The Ancient Demon Corpse stopped in front of Zhao Danchen and then turned around to look at Feng Xuan cautiously. It roared as if to warn her that it would attack if she approached.
Admittedly, Zhao Danchen had gotten very lucky.
In the Ancient Demon Domain, he had been defeated by Long Chen but had not died, then he ended up taking the powerful Ancient Demon Corpse for himself.
Here in Martial Overlord City, he should have been killed by the Martial Overlord, but the Martial Overlord had exploded at the very last moment!
The Martial Overlord’s furious expression played continuously in Zhao Danchen’s mind. His body was covered in the man’s blood, which fell to the ground like raindrops.
“Haha!” Zhao Danchen was stunned at first, then he let out a manic laugh. He laughed so hard that he bent over, and he had a crazed look on his face.
“I’m still alive? I’m still alive? Zhao Wuji is dead? It’s good he died! He died at just the right time!” Zhao Danchen blasted off the blood and flesh on his body, but there was too much of it. He was overwhelmed with excitement, so no matter what he did, he could not get rid of the Martial Overlord’s imprint on him.
“On the day you took me in as your direct disciple, you never thought you’d explode into pieces in front of me, right? This isn’t a bad way to die at all. Looks like my luck has been very good. People with great luck will surely have a bright future. Is this my time to soar?”
Zhao Danchen’s voice traveled across the whole city.
Everyone watched in stunned silence.
The Martial Overlord was dead.
Everyone had watched the Martial Overlord, who used to rule their world, die by his only direct disciple’s hand!
Zhao Danchen!
Everyone looked at the young man with reverence!
Just now, their hearts had been filled with rage, but that had turned into reverence! Deep reverence. Not only was he lucky and talented, he was also as venomous as a scorpion. No one in Martial Overlord City could provoke him, not even Xiao Lin. Everyone had been cursing Zhao Danchen just now, but the moment the Martial Overlord died, who would dare say anything bad about him?
The whole city fell dead silent.
Zhao Danchen shook once, and essence swarmed out of his body. All the blood and flesh stuck to his body was finally shaken to the ground. He held two things in his hands—the Martial Overlord rings and the Universe Pouch that Zhao Wuji carried with him. He held these two items with a mocking look on his face. He looked at Feng Xuan and said, “Did you want me to die just now?”
Feng Xuan smiled and said, “Who said that? Of course I wanted to save you. But Zhao Wuji was just too fast in his last struggle, so I couldn’t keep up. Now that we have won, give me half of the Myriad Earth Essence as per our agreement.”
She looked at him with a flirtatious smile.
If Zhao Danchen did not agree, that smile would turn deadly.
Feng Xuan had sustained internal injuries, and she was in a hurry to get Huangfu Qi’s Heavenly Wind Veins. Therefore, she did not want to risk causing further problems. If she were at her peak health, she would have snatched Zhao Danchen’s Ancient Demon Corpse and the Martial Overlord rings.
Zhao Danchen thought for a while.
He knew that provoking this woman over some Myriad Earth Essence was not a smart move. She would overpower the Ancient Demon Corpse if it were not for her injuries. If he chose to let this go, Zhao Danchen could find the cultivation method for the Martial Overlord Seal since he now had the Martial Overlord rings. After some time, with the help of the Ancient Demon Corpse, he would be able to defeat her.
With that thought, he took out two bottles from Zhao Wuji’s Universe Pouch. They were not large, but they were sparkling yet clear, showing that they were made of a special material.
“He had a total of four bottles of Myriad Earth Essence. These two are for you.” As he spoke, he tossed two bottles to Feng Xuan. She caught them and opened one. It was indeed Myriad Earth Essence. These two bottles were enough for her to recover after transplanting the Heavenly Wind Veins, so she did not dwell on whether Zhao Danchen was keeping more for himself. She quickly put them away and smiled at him.
The teasing and seductive smile ignited a fire in Zhao Danchen. However, when he recalled that this was a woman he could not handle, he stopped his train of thought. If he got involved with this woman, he would die one day.
“What? Isn’t the new Martial Overlord going to invite me to his palace for a drink? I am still a pretty lady after all, right?” said Feng Xuan.
“Not today. I need to deal with the Martial Overlord’s affairs. Today’s events have been major, and it’s going to be a headache for me. If you want to come, you can come over another time. The next time you come to Martial Overlord City, I will surely give you the warmest welcome!”
