Chapter 2138 - 2138 2128 Spare Your Life

2138: Chapter 2128: Spare Your Life 2138: Chapter 2128: Spare Your Life The elderly man watched Long Yan’s reaction and a faint smile appeared on his face, as he saw Long Yan’s struggle as futile.

In the face of absolute strength, all schemes were useless.

“Indeed, after all, I can’t just let you slaughter me.”

The situation between the two was inevitable, and naturally, Long Yan couldn’t surrender without a fight.

“In a moment when I count to three, we’ll split up and run.”

Long Yan whispered to Chu Bei and Sun Ling beside him, whether they could escape or not was now up to fate.

His words were actually to protect them; Elder Xuehe’s target was Long Yan.

So for the moment, Sun Ling and Chu Bei were ironically the safest; no one in the Hundred Thousand Mountains that arrived afterward could keep them.

“1.”

“2.”

The air around them froze in an instant.

Elder Xuehe didn’t pay any mind to Long Yan’s little move; overcoming many with one’s power was just that simple.

“3!”

As Long Yan’s voice fell, the three people each turned into a streak of light and dashed toward the distance.

Watching the three streaks of light before him, Elder Xuehe’s face didn’t change in the slightest, as he casually opened a dark gate in The Void and stepped entirely into The Void.

Long Yan was flying at high speed outside of the Hundred Thousand Mountains; once he got out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, his life would be secured.

“Young man, where do you think you’re going?”

An old voice made Long Yan stop in the air.

Elder Xuehe, with a smile, watched Long Yan; moving through The Void was much faster than Long Yan’s flight.

“Take this old man’s punch.”

Elder Xuehe, as if playing a game, swung his dry fist at Long Yan.

But the seemingly frail fist carried the weight of tens of thousands of pounds.

Long Yan could only watch helplessly as the once distant fist smashed toward his head.

Only managing to block it hastily with the Magic Gun, Long Yan was sent flying back, his palm split open.

Just an ordinary blow from a Divine Emperor had such power; Long Yan did not dare to imagine.

In an instant, Elder Xuehe vanished from his spot and reappeared right in the path of Long Yan’s retreat, throwing out another punch.

This punch made Long Yan feel as if his bones were all shattered.

“Hehehe.”

Elder Xuehe let out a series of eerie laughs, his figure flickering in and out of visibility in the Air, but always perfectly appearing in Long Yan’s flight path.

Long Yan was like a ball, being knocked back and forth in the air.

For a while, Long Yan couldn’t find an opening to counterattack.

However, relying on the Vermilion Bird Secret, he instinctively felt a fluctuation in the surrounding Space.

The reason Elder Xuehe could move so quickly was because of the Power of Space that Divine Emperor Powerhouses could control.

To be honest, Elder Xuehe wasn’t fast, but being able to move through The Void made Long Yan extremely uncomfortable.

“Ptooey!”

Long Yan spat out a mouthful of Fresh blood.

Every punch from the elderly man was like a mountain smashing down on him, grievously wounding Long Yan in just a short time.

“Azure Dragon’s Mysteries.”

“Time Imprisonment Finger.”

With no other options, Long Yan could only stabilize himself in the Air as the phantom of the Azure Dragon rushed swiftly towards Elder Xuehe.

“Oh?”

Elder Xuehe’s face showed a trace of surprise.

Of course, he knew what this thing was, but he hadn’t expected that Long Yan, a mere God King Fifth Level, would possess such a treasure.

Something surprising happened to Long Yan.

The phantom of the Azure Dragon was instantly shattered by Elder Xuehe’s fist.

No matter how mystical the secret techniques, they required strength to support them; without strength, even the mightiest techniques were useless.

“You have so many good things on you.

I’ll give you a chance.

Hand over your divine abilities, and I’ll spare your life.”

A glint of greed flashed through Elder Xuehe’s dull eyes.

Such divine abilities were coveted among Divine Emperors, not to mention the Time Principle that Long Yan had, which was one of the Four Saints’ secrets.

With such divine abilities, he wouldn’t be in this decaying state; he might even be able to cultivate for many more years and then attempt to break through the lock on this universe.

Long Yan himself was also greatly shocked.

His customarily infallible Azure Dragon’s Mysteries had failed against Elder Xuehe, and he couldn’t deny that this was a significant blow to his confidence.

“Dream on.”

Long Yan clenched his teeth and rushed towards the distance.

Elder Xuehe shook his head as he watched the scene.

Young people just never learned from experience.

With a sudden sidestep, Long Yan dodged a fist that emerged from the Void, his hands moving swiftly as he targeted the space before him.

A crisp sound of a phoenix’s cry filled the air behind Long Yan, and a Vermilion Bird spread its vast wings.

“Vermilion Bird Secret!”

“Spatial Lock!”

Elder Xuehe suddenly felt the Void around him locked down, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t tear even a tiny shred of space.

“This youngster has quite a few treasures on him.”

Elder Xuehe gazed at Long Yan with an intense stare that sent chills down Long Yan’s spine.

Putting aside the Time Principle, even the White Tiger’s Secret Technique that Long Yan used to kill Blood Maple made him drool with desire.

And now there was the Vermilion Bird Secret—Elder Xuehe was beginning to reconsider killing Long Yan altogether.

“Young man, how about I give you a chance to live?”

His dull eyes fixed intently on Long Yan, he was suddenly moved by admiration for his talent.

“Just become my apprentice, and I will spare your life.”

After saying this, Elder Xuehe folded his arms and waited for Long Yan’s response.

This offer caused Long Yan to fall into deep thought.

Truthfully, Zhou Xuantong’s help wasn’t much to Long Yan anymore, but Elder Xuehe was after all a Divine Emperor Level powerhouse who could provide significant guidance in cultivation.

Long Yan felt that he was about to break through again soon, and Elder Xuehe’s proposal was certainly an opportunity.

“I’ve decided.”

Elder Xuehe looked at Long Yan with a smile, believing that Long Yan had no reason to refuse his offer.

After all, having a Divine Emperor Level Strong One in front of him, and wishing to take him as an apprentice, was a great favor in Elder Xuehe’s eyes.

“I refuse!”

Long Yan spoke decisively.

Leaving aside the fact that he had killed Blood Maple, even if he hadn’t, there was no way he could betray Zhou Xuantong and the Seven-Star Hall.

Indeed, with Long Yan’s first place in the Heavenly Ranking, he could choose to join any Sect of the Saint Que, which would not just be about Elder Xuehe, but the entirety of the Hundred Thousand Mountains would be achievable.

Still, he chose to help the Seven-Star Hall.

This was a stance, one that had nothing to do with the so-called lure of wealth and fame.

When Long Yan was abandoned and alone, it was the Seven-Star Hall that helped him.

Even when he was hunted by the Emperor Clan, it was the Seven-Star Hall that had protected Long Yan.

If he betrayed the Seven-Star Hall now, he wouldn’t even be able to forgive himself.

“Good kid.”

Elder Xuehe was irate over Long Yan’s refusal.

Did Long Yan have such a death wish?

“Then you can’t blame me!”

Elder Xuehe was now truly intent on killing!
