Chapter 2169: Chapter 2189: From Beginning to End, Who Have I Provoked?_1

"Hi, Duan Daoyou, we meet again!"

Duan Yuelan looked at Lin Chen in front of her, her gaze complicated.

This time, she had actually waited a full eight days for the magical artifact tracking the Life Curse to shine again.

By now, Lin Chen was far, far away from Duan Yuelan. By the time Duan Yuelan caught up with Lin Chen, it had been half a month since she had last killed him.

Duan Yuelan did not know what Lin Chen had been doing during these eight days, but she clearly knew that she had spent half of the day waiting for the magical artifact to light up again.

Duan Yuelan looked at Lin Chen who was floating mid-air, "Where’s your flying boat?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "You’ve destroyed three of my boats already, who would keep a stash of flying boats in a Void Space Ring? Even if I had any, it would not be worth it to waste one each time you destroy it. It would be better to simply let you kill me..."

Duan Yuelan was speechless.

She was a Daluo Ultimate Immortal with many techniques at her disposal, yet she did not know what to do when faced with an opponent such as this, who was seemingly resigned to his fate.

Of course, she could continue killing him, but that would mean getting locked in a drawn-out battle with him.

She did not know where he was hiding, and she had to remain vigilant all the time.

While she had the upper hand in terms of killing, whether he chose to appear or not was entirely up to Lin Chen, and she could only wait passively.

When Lin Chen was in a good mood and felt like teasing her, he would lead her on a wild goose chase. When he was in a foul mood, he would ignore her, leaving her to wait quietly on the side.

At worst, they would continue this stalemate until the effects of the Life Curse wore off.

Thinking this way, Duan Yuelan started to feel bored.

Seeing Duan Yuelan silent, neither speaking nor attacking, Lin Chen laughed, "Duan Daoyou, what are you planning to do by blocking me without saying a word?"

Duan Yuelan frowned, "I heard you came to God Falling Immortal Realm to protect Thunder Immortal Domain?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Indeed. Tell me, you wouldn’t be thinking of threatening Thunder Immortal Domain to intimidate me, would you?"

Duan Yuelan stared at Lin Chen and asked, "Would you be intimidated then?"

"Yes, I would be a little bit, but not much. First, I don’t believe a Daluo Ultimate Immortal like you would stoop to doing something so petty. Second, my important people have mostly left for Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain. Although I have some connections with the rest, they aren’t that deep. Even if you lay waste to the entire Thunder Immortal Domain, you would not be able to find my real body."

After a pause, Lin Chen affirmed, "I definitely wouldn’t reveal my true body before the Life Curse is lifted. I won’t give you any chance."

Duan Yuelan stared at Lin Chen’s calm grin, a nameless rage igniting in her heart.

Did this man think he had her figured out?

He had killed her man, and now he wanted peace between them?

If she backed down now, how could she hold her head high in front of others in the future? How could she face herself?

All cultivators who have reached this level are those with unwavering resolve. With her mind made up, Duan Yuelan’s gaze hardened as she looked at Lin Chen.

"If you enjoy this stalemate, then I’ll give you one. No matter where you run to, I will chase you. I will kill you!"

Lin Chen frowned slightly, "It seems you still have feelings for your ex-husband!"

"No!"

Duan Yuelan shook her head, her expression calm. "My relationship with him has ended. I admit that I initially wanted to kill you to avenge him. But now, I want to kill you for myself."

Lin Chen looked helpless, "So, you feel that I’ve humiliated you?"

Now that Duan Yuelan had made her decision, her previous embarrassment and helplessness had vanished. She coldly stated, "Yes, hence why I must kill you."

Lin Chen sighed, "Don’t you think it’s a case of misfortune falling from the sky onto my head? I was living a good life in the Thunder Immortal Domain. Suddenly, someone declared war on us, intending to raid us. I came to the God Falling Immortal Realm to talk things out with Yu Shoudao to maintain peace and stability, but Yu Shoudao disagreed. He thought that due to his advantages, he didn’t need to negotiate on equal terms with a little man like me from a Mid-Grade Immortal Realm."

"After much difficulty, I set a trap and killed Yu Shoudao." Instead of this ending things, things escalated and a Daluo Ultimate Immortal made an appearance, killed me three times without uttering a word, and is determined to stick it out with me until the end. She is adamant about killing me simply so that she can obtain peace of mind..."

"Duan Daoyou, tell me, from beginning to end, have I done anything to provoke anyone?"

Duan Yuelan was left speechless, unable to reply to Lin Chen’s question.

Indeed, she did feel humiliated by Lin Chen, so she wanted to kill him to ease her mind. But from beginning to end, who had Lin Chen provoked?

Regarding the Three-Saint Sect, he was only resisting.

And in relation to her, he was only evading.

Thinking this way, it seemed that Lin Chen was indeed innocent.

After several seconds of silence, Duan Yuelan said, "Perhaps you are innocent, but that no longer matters. Regarding the Life Curse, I need to settle this matter for it and for myself. Let’s make a pact. If I manage to kill you before the Life Curse wears off, then it will be your bad luck. If the Life Curse wears off and I have still not killed you, I will stop attacking you..."

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "Is this a commitment, a vow?"
