Chapter 935 - Chapter 935 Chapter 596 Your Excellency is really too wasteful

Chapter 935: Chapter 596: Your Excellency is really too wasteful Chapter 935: Chapter 596: Your Excellency is really too wasteful “Folks, since we’ve successfully subdued this man, let’s now take them back to the village together and await Lord Willow God’s decision!”

After glancing at Gu Chen, who was still showing off his Jade Hammer with a smug expression, and then at the envious looks of the people around, Tu Wa Zi stepped forward at just the right moment.

If this went on, he feared his friends would turn green with envy and start fighting over the spoils.

“Since Brother Chen played a key role in the final blow, let’s keep our word. The top spot goes to Brother Chen. No objections, right?” Tu Wa Zi continued.

“Of course not!”

Lin Hai and others reined in their minds, not having the slightest dissent.

Even though everyone coveted those thirty beads of Weak Water, they really had no complaints about who got the top spot. After all, those present were closer than brothers, and any envy was nothing more than playful teasing.

Whoever could be better and stronger, everyone simply offered their blessings followed by healthy competition, never harboring jealousy in their hearts.

Of course, such a relationship existed not just because their hearts were pure, a rare innocence in the world, but also because they were all faithful followers of Jiang Hui!

Believers would absolutely never turn their blades on each other.

That was the second most important rule.

The first was to never betray Jiang Hui.

Everyone was very polite, feeling that if it weren’t for Gu Chen’s decisive action and successful subjugation of the man, they might have had a hard time suppressing him promptly.

The man’s vitality was incredibly exaggerated, like an undying Xiao Qiang. His head, limbs, and body had been chopped off countless times and even his torso had been blown to bits several times, yet he was still unscathed.

“This achievement belongs to everyone. Without you all, even with this precious treasure, I wouldn’t have succeeded so smoothly with one strike!”

Gu Chen shook his head and hastily spoke. There was no need to hog all the glory when everyone present was a brother.

Although he had delivered the crucial blow, it would’ve been difficult without Tu Wa Zi, Lin Hai, and the half-demon brothers restraining the man, preventing him from being able to focus.

As he spoke, Gu Chen took out the Crystal Hammer again, weighed it in his hand, and felt all the more confident in his initial choice.

Seeing Gu Chen show off like this, Tu Wa Zi and the others were left speechless and chagrined, secretly planning in their hearts that next time they had a chance to choose something from Lord Willow God, they would forgo practicality and select something that looked odd and quirky.

Perhaps the stranger it was, the more useful it would become.

…

Tu Wa Zi acted, stuffing both the Spiritual Root and the man into a Beast Skin Bag. After cleaning up the battlefield, the group did not linger and tore through the void, hurrying back to the village as swift as the wind.

By the time the onlookers below realized what had happened, there was no trace left, only a group of dazed spectators remained.

“This is too… well, to be subdued like that at the end is not merely a disgrace but a disgrace among disgraces. Such karma may exceed our imagination. If he comes back, he will surely return with a fury, and we might get caught up in it then!”

The onlookers looked at each other, suddenly fearful, no longer daring to stay. They turned into streaks of light, heading in all directions, each to their own home.

The karmic implications were too massive, beyond imagination. If, as that intention implied, his true self would one day return, then they, mere onlookers, might be swept into the vast karma between him and Willow Sacred Land.

Other karmic consequences might be manageable, but this one was too great for them to bear.

Many were full of regret, wishing they hadn’t come to watch the excitement had they known.

Indeed, sometimes the wisdom of the older generation is right; not all commotions are meant for everyone to join.

…

…

Liu Village, shrouded in mist, with distant mountains faintly visible and a veil of cold smoke nearby, resembled a meticulously crafted ink painting.

The place was always beautiful and, with Jiang Hui’s careful cultivation, had a comfortable feel reminiscent of a southern water town.

With gray bricks, red walls, green trees, and endless clear waters bathed in misty rain, the village was unadorned yet perfectly charming, evoking a sense of pearls in motion, dispelling weariness.

Jiang Hui loved this sensation.

Everything flowed like a leisurely stream at one’s fingertips, warming and soothing to the touch.

After becoming the Immortal Emperor, his disposition also naturally slowed down.

There were two reasons for this.

The first was that the sense of crisis was not as intense since, from the heavens above, he was now undoubtedly the foremost among all.

As for the Bizarre Clan above the heavens, they were unlikely to focus their attention here. Plus, with his freedom from karma and the protection of the Utopia Array, unless he actively ventured beyond the heavens, the Bizarre Clan would certainly not discover him.

The only concern was the black heart, which might represent the legendary Red-Haired Monster, a greater hidden threat.

The only consolation.

It seemed to still be dormant, never having made an appearance, with only the black heart operating from the shadows. Since that odd heart could not detect him, his safety seemed assured for the moment.
