Chapter 1790: Chapter 1810: I’ll count to three, bear your own consequences!_1

Xi Junshan and his men gave up their attack, taking advantage of the moment when everyone in Rock City was arresting their action. They swiftly penetrated the city and quickly concentrated in the pavilion.

Xi Junshan, without hesitation, extended his hand and dragged the heavily wounded Golden Immortal Guards before him, controlling them single-handedly.

If he willed it, these guards would be crushed into fragments.

Meng Panshi’s face turned pallid, his eyes coldly locked on Lin Chen, who was hiding behind Meng Ke. "Who are you?" he asked.

Xi Junshan, with hostages under his control, laughed heartily. "The Sect Master of Hundred Calamities Sect, Xi Junshan."

Hundred Calamities Sect!

The crowd gasped in shock.

Meng Panshi, who had been guessing before, felt at ease with the confirmation.

They were not here for murder, they came to rescue their sect disciples and claim the Spirit Vein.

The two sides have been negotiating before, but because the Rock Tribe had control over the Spirit Vein and also had a bunch of Hundred Calamities Sect’s disciples, they had the upper hand.

The Hundred Calamities Sect kept delaying, without realizing the other side’s vicious surprise attack! Meng Panshi had been somewhat prepared, but he hadn’t expected that these people would infiltrate the city so quietly and launch such a sudden attack!

How else would they have succeeded?

Meng Panshi asked coldly, "What do you want?"

As he spoke, his eyes moved towards Lin Chen, preparing to seize Meng Ke at any moment.

Once Meng Ke was seized, he could abandon the remaining Golden Immortal Guards. After all, the group of celestials was still here. If he were to kill them, even the loss of a group of Golden Immortal Guards would be a worthy cause.

Unfortunately, Lin Chen was very careful. When Xi Junshan and his men arrived, Lin Chen quickly dragged Meng Ke to their rear. During the whole process, Lin Chen stayed closely behind Meng Ke, literally becoming one. This left Meng Panshi no opportunity.

Lin Chen would not give him the chance to overturn the situation.

If they were to get overturned due to carelessness at this stage, they would deserve to die.

Just as Xi Junshan was about to open negotiations, Lin Chen suddenly declared, "Open the city’s Array Formation, let us leave. We’ll negotiate the rest once we’re safe."

Xi Junshan froze for a moment, his old face flushing slightly with embarrassment.

He was an old-timer and yet he wasn’t as cautious as this young chap. It was really a disgrace.

With the advantage on their side, why should they start negotiations on enemy territory?

Wouldn’t it lower their advantage?

If they left first, ensuring their safety before negotiating, wouldn’t they have the advantage?

Starting negotiations now, the other party could use their lives as bargaining chips. Both sides will be hesitant to act. This is not to their advantage.

He decided to keep quiet, leaving Lin Chen in charge.

After all, it was his plan and his hostages. They could not have achieved these results, so they had to give him credit.

Meng Panshi’s sharp gaze remained on Lin Chen for several seconds before shifting to Xi Junshan.

"Xi Junshan, are you going to let a young lad who’s still wet behind the ears negotiate with me?"

Xi Junshan smiled faintly and answered calmly, "Whatever he says, is what I say."

Meng Panshi retorted coldly, "Don’t forget, you’re still in our Rock City. Our men have you surrounded. If a fight breaks out, none of you will escape!"

Lin Chen broke into a grin, "If you don’t care about Meng Ke and these guards, let’s start fighting. We’ll kill them first, then struggle with you. Eight Celestials, even if we end up dying here, I believe Rock City would be reduced to a wasteland! Who’s afraid of whom anyway?"

Meng Panshi sneered, "Even if we suffer heavy casualties, if we kill all of you here, it will be worth it."

Lin Chen laughed, "Stop bluffing. I know you have a high status. However, if Meng Ke, the beloved granddaughter of the Azure Dragon Clan’s chief, dies on your territory, you have no way of explaining it to the chief."

"Besides, how do you know that we have no means to escape? Meng Panshi, don’t tell me about hostages in your hands. If you want to talk, let us leave first, then we’ll talk slowly. If you don’t want to talk, we’ll part ways and fight."

Meng Panshi’s expression hardened, his eyes flashing with suppressed fury.

A young lad in the True Immortal Realm was threatening him so arrogantly!

But he had to submit because it was true, as Lin Chen said. If Meng Ke died here, he wouldn’t be able to explain it.

Maybe, he wouldn’t be punished severely, but after that, he would probably be done for in the Azure Dragon Clan.

Lin Chen saw this and that’s why he was so audacious.

Meng Panshi spoke sternly, "Didn’t you come here for your Sect Disciples? I’ll have them brought here, and we can make a swap!"

Lin Chen replied calmly, "I just want to leave now, I don’t want to waste words with you. I’ll count to three. If you don’t let us go, I’ll start killing."
