Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor
Chapter 628 - 625 I Want His Life!

Chapter 628: Chapter 625 I Want His Life!

The Blood Soul Pearl shattered, releasing a tide of wronged souls and evil spirits.

Li Chen saw this, brought his hands together to form a seal, and condensed a golden light seal.

"All Buddhas Paying Homage!"

"Boom!"

A colossal Buddha statue, ninety-nine feet tall and thirty-three feet wide, slammed down with a crash. All the wronged souls and evil spirits were instantaneously obliterated.

After the souls dissipated, Young Master Xue, Kevin, Ruohong, and the heavily injured Shen Xu, were desperately fleeing towards the Pacific Ocean.

"Thinking of leaving? Not so easy!"

Li Chen soared into the sky, breaking the sound barrier with his flesh, and rapidly pursued them.

His speed far exceeded Young Master Xue, Kevin, and the others, especially since they were encumbered by Shen Xu. Hence, after merely a hundred or so miles, he blocked their path.

Kevin was shocked to see Li Chen catch up so quickly.

"Taoist Li, it’s always wise to leave room for reconciliation in the future. Don’t be too extreme!"

Li Chen’s gaze was icy as it swept over Kevin, Ruohong, and Shen Xu, finally resting on Young Master Xue.

"You may go, but Young Master Xue’s life must stay!"

Kevin glanced at Young Master Xue. No matter what, he was part of the Heavenly Net. Abandoning him to Li Chen would make it difficult to explain to their master, and might even provoke the thunderous fury of the Master of the Heavenly Net.

His master, Hai Yazi, although he is a Quasi Golden Core cultivator, is not a true Golden Core and certainly no match for the Master of the Heavenly Net.

If they truly turned hostile, their Sea God Temple faced the risk of total annihilation!

After weighing the pros and cons, Kevin had made up his mind; no matter what, they could not hand over Young Master Xue.

After a moment of contemplation, he was ready to negotiate with Li Chen.

"Taoist Li, name your price. What will it take for you to let us go? Whatever heavenly materials and earthly treasures, or magical treasures, as long as our Sea God Temple has them, we’ll offer them without hesitation!"

Before his words even settled, Li Chen was already pointing his sword at Young Master Xue, his reply decisive.

"I want nothing but his life!"

Kevin’s mouth twitched involuntarily, his eyes instinctively seeking Young Master Xue’s, as if to ask: What huge grudge do you hold? Did you kill his parents or steal his wife?

Young Master Xue Wuxie also looked utterly wronged. I am the victim here, alright?

Although it was he who provoked and plotted to ambush Li Chen first, not only did he fail, but he also faced complete defeat. Even he himself was chased down for thousands of miles, nearly losing his life. Who can I even reason with?

"I do not wish to be enemies with your Sea God Temple, but if you dare obstruct me again, you cannot blame my sword for being merciless!"

As he spoke, Li Chen took large strides forward, clearly intending to forcefully eliminate Young Master Xue.

"I’ll hold him off, junior sister, you take our junior brother and go. Find a way to send a message to our master and ask him to come save me quickly!"

Seeing there was absolutely no chance for negotiation, Kevin was both infuriated and anxious, prepared to go all out.

"Fine, since you’re bent on seeking death, I’ll grant your wish!"

The killing intent in Li Chen’s eyes surged violently, his Sword Intent stern as a comet streaking across the moon, directly slashing towards Kevin who was blocking the way.

Kevin had already experienced Li Chen’s prowess and dared not underestimate him any longer. He fiercely boosted his True Yuan, elevating himself to his peak state, ready to face Li Chen’s earth-shattering sword head-on.

Li Chen, one with his sword, charged out like lightning, reaching Kevin in the blink of an eye.

"So fast!"

Kevin’s eyes revealed a hint of astonishment as he quickly parried with his sword.

"Clang!"

The Sword Shadow split the air like a rainbow, shattering the void with crackling explosions like firecrackers.

"Crack!"

In just a brief encounter, Kevin’s seemingly indestructible Magic Sword was forcefully cleaved in half by Li Chen.

Utterly shocked in his heart, he staggered back two steps and brought his hands together to perform a Sealing Technique.

"Water Curtain Defense!"

Under Kevin’s control, a huge water pillar surged into the sky, forming layers of water curtain defense, enveloping him within.

This was a Water Magic spell, which Li Chen had once seen used by a Water Shadow Ninja.

"Hmph, do you think this will stop me?"

Li Chen snorted angrily, his two fingers coming together as a flame spontaneously ignited at his fingertips.

With a flick of his wrist, the tiny flame transformed into a Cloud-piercing Rocket.

Immediately after, he positioned himself like Hou Yi shooting at the sun, using his body as a bow, pulling into a full moon shape, and unleashed an explosive shot towards Kevin’s water curtain defense.

"Whoosh!"

The rocket tore through the void, creating a small vortex on the flowing barrier, visibly penetrating deeper at high speed.

Soon, dense, spiderweb-like cracks appeared all over the defense made of water curtains.

Kevin’s heart filled with dread as he desperately tried to gather his True Yuan to fix the cracks in his defense, but it was in vain.

"Crash!"

The Water Curtain Barrier finally could not bear the strain and shattered with a loud bang.

"Ptui!"

The rocket pierced through the layers of the water curtains, going straight through Kevin’s body and igniting fierce flames.

In just a moment, his entire body was burned to ashes, scattering in the wind.

Li Chen dusted off his clothes and looked straight ahead, continuing his pursuit of Young Master Xue Wuxie.

Kevin’s death was not in vain.

At least he bought some time for Ruohong and Young Master Xue to escape.

But because both Shen Xu and Young Master Xue were injured, their escape was not very fast, and they had only run a hundred or so nautical miles.

Ruohong looked back and, seeing that Li Chen wasn’t chasing, settled her spirit a bit.

"Junior Brother Shen Xu, are you alright? I’ve sent a secret signal to the Master, he will be here soon!"

Shen Xu, despite being severely injured, kept his arrogant demeanor.

"Senior Brother Kevin was in the Late-stage Foundation Establishment; even if he couldn’t kill that good-for-nothing Immortal Master Li, it wouldn’t be difficult to hold him off for a few hours. Let’s not run; let’s wait for Master right here!"

After speaking, he looked down at his sorry reflection in the sea, grinding his teeth in anger.

"Damn it, once Master arrives, I will make sure you are torn to pieces. Otherwise, my hatred will not be appeased!"

"Swoosh!"

Before he finished speaking, a streak of light cut across the sky towards them.

Seeing this, Ruohong’s face turned pale with fright, and she exclaimed in alarm: "It’s not good, he’s coming after us again!"

Even the usually haughty Shen Xu was terrified, his eyes bulging.

"What’s going on? Wasn’t Senior Brother Kevin holding him back? Could it be that my brother has already..."

He stopped mid-sentence, feeling a chilling fear.

This was the fear of the Death God!

His talent in Martial Arts was known to be the strongest in the sect, but he had only just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage. Even in a fight, he was no match for Senior Brother Kevin.

If the opponent could kill Senior Brother Kevin in just a few exchanges, then killing him would be just as easy.

The streak of light disappeared, and Li Chen hovered above the waves, his sword still dripping with hot, fresh blood. From a distance, he looked like a Killing God who had come from hell.

"Young Master Xue, I want to see this time, who can save you?"
