Chapter 2387: The Great Momentum
Although Yan Wushen was the only one who came, the atmosphere in the three upper clans became tense. All the important figures appeared, including Wujiang, Pan Ruo, Que Fei, Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, as well as nearly 20 Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm.
The three upper clans were filled with powerhouses. If the three clans joined forces, even the Yanluo clan would not be able to contend against them.
Yan Wushen showed no fear and said, “You don’t have to set up such a formation. I came here as a friend.”
“A friend?”
When Wujiang saw Yan Wushen, he was eager to make a move. He snorted, “On the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting, if you are not one of us, then you are our enemy.”
Yan Wushen smiled and said, “If that’s the case, aren’t the three upper clans all enemies?”
Killing intent shot out from the eyes of all the powerful figures present.
Because of Pan Ruo’s influence, the three upper clans may form an alliance army. Back then, she had promised the cultivators of the three clans that she would lead them to seize the second, third, and fourth places in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting.
If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t led the Immortal Vampires to a sudden rise, and if Lord Lei hadn’t died at the hands of the Kymorpho and Lord Hornless, she might have succeeded.
Even now, Pan Ruo hadn’t kept her promise, but no cultivator from the three upper clans blamed her.
The Battle of Celestial-Hunting had just begun. When everyone was still looking down on Zhang Ruochen, Pan Ruo had set up an inescapable net to kill him.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen was too powerful. He had defeated Wujiang and shocked all the cultivators from the three upper clans who had looked down on him.
Could it be Pan Ruo’s fault?
No.
In the case of Lord Lei’s death, it was the fault of the god of the Fane of Destiny. Is it possible that Pan Ruo is to blame?
No.
At least so far, the Nether Clan and the Deathkin were in the top five.
Pan Ruo’s cold figure walked out and faced Yan Wushen. She said, “Mr. Yan, what do you mean by you are our friend?”
Yan Wushen had fought side by side with Pan Ruo in Kunlun. He had a good impression of her. He explained, “The Yanluo clan and the three upper clans are working together to destroy the Celestial Captives on the seventh Dark Star.”
The powerhouses of the three upper clans all laughed coldly.
Working together?
The Yanluo clan probably wanted to use the three upper clans to take the lead while they followed behind to take advantage of the situation.
Were the cultivators of the three upper clans that easy to fool?
“If we destroy the Celestial Captives together, what about the points?” Supreme Saint Yuan Fei asked calmly.
Yan Wushen said, “The Yanluo clan only wants the points from Lord Hornless. The other Supreme Saint Celestial Captives belonged to the three upper clans.”
All the Supreme Saints of the three upper clans were in an uproar. They felt incredulous.
Lord Hornless’ points were sought after by the Yanluo clan. In other words, they desired Lord Hornless’ death at their hands.
Why did the cultivators of the Infernal Court not attack the seventh Dark Star?
Because Lord Hornless was far too powerful and the various clans restraining each other!
Once the battle started, he alone could kill a lot of people.
No one could bear the responsibility of losing a large number of genius Supreme Saints.
Now, Yan Wushen had taken a tough nut to crack and the remaining 700 Supreme Saint Celestial Captives were not that difficult to deal with.
More importantly, the 700 Supreme Saint Celestial Captives were worth tens of millions of points.
Pan Ruo’s heart trembled slightly. Why did Yan Wushen have the confidence to kill Lord Hornless who wields the Supreme Artifact?
Was it because the Yanluo clan had the means to kill Lord Hornless? Or did Yan Wushen just say these words to deceive them and actually have another plan?
Yan Wushen said, “You’d probably still doubt my sincerity. To tell you the truth, the reason I chose Lord Hornless was that I had to kill him to obtain all the opportunities on the Yanluo clan’s home planet.”
“Why should we believe you?” Wujiang asked.
Yan Wushen said, “Because your three upper clans are not qualified to be the Yanluo clan’s enemies. Even so, why would I lie to all of you?”
Immediately, a series of angry curses rang out.
“Yan Wushen, how dare you?”
“How dare you look down on the three upper clans. Are you picking a fight with us?”
“If the three upper clans join forces, no matter how strong your Yanluo clan is, I’m afraid you will be defeated. Fight! Fight! Fight!”
Yan Wushen crossed his arms in front of his chest. His eyes were filled with disdain as he said, “Even if the Yanluo clan does nothing now, none of you have the points to catch up with us. Am I right?”
The cultivators of the three upper clans gritted their teeth in hatred.
They couldn’t refute Yan Wushen due to his arrogance.
Only Pan Ruo, Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, and a few other cultivators remained calm as they thought about Yan Wushen’s true goal.
After a while, Pan Ruo said, “I believe you.”
Yan Wushen laughed out loud, “Indeed, only Pan Ruo is a sensible person. There are too many mediocre people in this generation of the three upper clans. They have disgraced the three upper clans. Thinking back to the Battle of Celestial-Hunting 2000 years ago, the three upper clans had many powerful cultivators. All of them were ranked in the top five. In this round, if we do not cooperate with the Yanluo clan, I’m afraid that no one will be able to enter the top five.”
Wujiang smiled coldly and was about to speak.
Yan Wushen said, “There’s only one day left in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. Time is tight. If the three upper clans don’t cooperate with the Yanluo clan, I can only look for the middle three clans. The Bone Clan and the Corpusians would very much want to enter the top five.”
Pan Ruo stopped Wujiang and said, “Isn’t the Yanluo clan cooperating with the Bone Clan?”
“They’re just using them. Whether it’s Pink Skull or the Bone Clan, they won’t amount to anything. Of the three upper clans, Her Highness Pan Ruo and the Ten Thousand Hands Supreme Saint are people that I like. Our cooperation could last for a thousand years even after the Battle of Celestial-Hunting,” said Yan Wushen.
Yan Wushen was telling Pan Ruo indirectly that he would support her to be the Scioness of Destiny.
However, other than Pan Ruo and Wujiang, the other three upper clans Supreme Saint were so angry that their faces turned red.
What does Yan Wushen mean? We are all people who have cultivated to the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm within a thousand years. We have the potential to become gods, yet you didn’t even see our worthiness?
You really look down on the heroes of all realms.
Yan Wushen then looked Pan Ruo in the eyes and said, “If the three upper clans work together with the Yanluo clan, it is possible to crush the Immortal Vampires.”
Wujiang, who was originally full of hostility towards Yan Wushen, could not help but ask, “Crush the Immortal Vampires?”
Yan Wushen gave him a look of affirmation, “As long as we exterminate the Immortal Vampires, we’ll cut their points in half,” he said. “The Nether Clan had a chance to trample them and ascend to second place. What was the point of defeating Zhang Ruochen, Wujiang? Wouldn’t it be more satisfying to crush the Immortal Vampires to dust and watch Zhang Ruochen’s hard-won glory crumble?”
Wujiang’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He smiled. “So the Yanluo clan wants to use us to deal with the Immortal Vampires.”
Yan Wushen didn’t deny it and he said, “From the beginning to the end, only the Immortal Vampires were the enemies of the Yanluo clan in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. Aren’t the Immortal Vampires also the enemies of the Nether Clan? So, our interests are the same.”
“Okay! I’m in this!” Wujiang said.
Yan Wushen smiled. “The Ten Thousand Hands Supreme Saint is indeed the strongest of the three upper clans. You are indeed the most outstanding hero of this era. You should have such courage in the face of major events.”
“But I have one condition,” said Wujiang.
“Speak,” said Yan Wushen.
Wujiang said, “Zhang Ruochen must die by my hands.”
Yan Wushen praised, “A man was born to be a man, that is the way it should be. Avenge yourself and return the favor. When the time comes, I will personally hold the fort for you and witness you decapitate Zhang Ruochen’s head.”
Since Wujiang had agreed, the Deathkin and the Stone Clan would not reject cooperating with the Yanluo clan.
After all, they were not in a competitive relationship with the Yanluo clan. It would be best if they could take advantage of it and take care of Zhang Ruochen, their enemy.
Pan Ruo said, “Of course, the three upper clans can cooperate with the Yanluo clan. But even if we join forces with the four clans to conquer the seventh Dark Star, it’s still risky. You have to know that the cultivators of the Rakshasas and the Immortal Vampires are still lurking in the dark.”
Yes, once they started a war with the Celestial Captives, how could the Rakshasas and the Immortal Vampires sit still?
Yan Wushen said, “The Rakshasas and the Immortal Vampires are not worth worrying about. Just let them continue to hide. The battlefield we have created is not on the seventh Dark Star at all.”
The cultivators of the three upper clans were all stunned.
How could the battlefield not be on the seventh Dark Star?
Pan Ruo seemed to have guessed Yan Wushen’s intentions. She said calmly, “You want to use the dimensional teleportation array?”
“No, to be exact, it should be a dimensional teleportation array of darkness,” Yan Wushen said.
Pan Ruo said, “The battlefield is on the Immortal Vampires’ home planet?”
“That’s right,” Yan Wushen said.
Pan Ruo let out a long sigh and revealed a look of admiration. She said, “That’s killing two birds with one stone.”
Except for a few people present who understood what was going on, the other cultivators were still confused.
How did the battlefield end up on the Immortal Vampires’ home planet?
Pan Ruo said, “Even if you mobilize the Dark Star’s Power of Darkness and activate the dimensional teleportation array, it’s impossible to enter the Immortal Vampires’ home planet directly. Have you forgotten that there’s a space-isolating array?”
“Yan Huangtu will break the array of the Immortal Vampires’ home planet in advance,” Yan Wushen said.
Pan Ruo’s heart sank. Against a powerful opponent like Yan Wushen, all of Zhang Ruochen’s previous efforts would be in vain.
His momentum...
Yan Wushen’s momentum was set. He brought the forces of the Yanluo clan, the three upper clans, and the Bone Clan to the Immortal Vampires’ home planet. Who could stop him?
Zhang Ruochen?
No one could.
Zhang Ruochen might not be able to stop Yan Wushen, Yan Huangtu, and Wujiang working together, even if he had extra heads and hands. There were also Que, Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, Que Fei, Pink Skull, and others.
Was the Immortal Vampires’ first place among the ten clans going to be taken away just like that?
Was the Empress’ and Sword Saint Xuanji’s plan all for naught again?
Was Lord Hornless going to die in vain?
Were the billions of lives in Kunlun going to continue living in the flames of war and humiliation? Being trampled, killed, and enslaved?
No!
That was definitely not the case.
There was still a chance, there had to be a chance.
“Since Yan Huangtu and Pink Skull have already gone to the Immortal Vampires’ home planet, I’m afraid that all of the Immortal Vampires will die very soon,” Pan Ruo said. Then she asked, “Is it still necessary for us to relocate the battlefield there?”
Yan Wushen looked at Pan Ruo suspiciously and said, “Your Highness, can you locate a better battlefield?”
Yan Wushen’s Divine Eye of Origin was staring at Pan Ruo as if her soul was about to be exposed. Yan Wushen’s vigilance was unrivaled among cultivators of the same generation.
“The other few Dark Stars are all good choices. For example, the third Dark Star,” Pan Ruo said.
The reason why the battlefield could not be located on the seventh Dark Star was that the Rakshasas and the Immortal Vampires were here, which would affect the outcome of the battle.
Therefore, the battlefield had to be relocated somewhere else.
There was an uncertain factor in the interior of the third Dark Star, which was the biggest reason why Pan Ruo wanted to lure everyone there. Only in this way could the Immortal Vampires and Zhang Ruochen have a chance of survival.
Yan Wushen shook his head gently and said, “It’s true that we have a greater advantage in the battle on the Dark Star, but the Celestial Captives will never agree.”
Pan Ruo did not speak again.
Yan Wushen’s will was stronger than Wujiang. He would not be controlled by anyone, and his mind was extremely terrifying. If he continued to speak, he would definitely be suspected, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Yan Wushen withdrew his gaze from Pan Ruo and said, “Next, I still have to meet Lord Hornless. I’ll take my leave first!”
Many cultivators present still did not understand Yan Wushen’s intentions.
Another battlefield?
How?
Should the Celestial Captives go to the Immortal Vampires’ home planet?
Yes, that was Yan Wushen’s plan.
Won’t Yan Wushen be afraid of being struck to death by Lord Hornless?
Yes, Yan Wushen was fearless.
“Yan Wushen is courting death. He thinks his cultivation is strong, and he dares to go to the seventh Dark Star alone. Wait and see. With Lord Hornless’s cultivation, he won’t need three strikes to kill Yan Wushen.”
“Yan Wushen claims to be a Yuanhui level genius. He’s even more arrogant than Zhang Ruochen. He’ll definitely pay the price.”
“It’s best if Yan Wushen doesn’t die. After all, working with the Yanluo clan is beneficial to us.”
“He’s being suicidal. What can he do?”
The cultivators of the three upper clans were discussing and mocking. They were ready to watch a good show.
At that moment, Pan Ruo suddenly said, “I’ll go with you.”
This was the only chance to get close to Lord Hornless. She couldn’t miss it.
Otherwise, Zhang Ruochen and the Immortal Vampires would definitely lose.
In the past, the Immortal Vampires had the absolute advantage. There was no need to deliberately mobilize the pawn such as Lord Hornless. But now, she couldn’t. Only by using this pawn well could she break Yan Wushen’s momentum.
Yan Wushen turned his head and looked surprised. “Your Highness Pan Ruo...”
Pan Ruo did not give him the chance to reject and said, “I have cultivated the Door of Trueself. If the negotiation fails, I can suppress the power of Lord Hornless. You will have the chance to escape.”
Then, she added, “Only if we go together can we have a chance to negotiate. After all, you can only represent the Yanluo clan, not the three upper clans.”
Yan Wushen’s shocked expression disappeared and he nodded with a smile. He said, “Good, you have guts. Even if the negotiation fails, I will definitely send you away first.”
Watching Yan Wushen and Pan Ruo flying towards the seventh Dark Star, the cultivators of the three upper clans were still in shock.
Has Her Highness gone mad?
Negotiating with the Celestial Captives and changing the battlefield with Lord Hornless, was there anything more ridiculous than this?
The two flew side by side. Yan Wushen said telepathically, “Does Her Highness have a deep relationship with Zhang Ruochen?”
“Why do you ask that, Mr.Yan?” said Pan Ruo. Her face was as cold as an ice mountain, without any emotion.
Yan Wushen said, “I heard that you fell into the third Dark Star with Zhang Ruochen, and he let you escape once. That’s why I’m a little confused.”
“I heard that on the eve of the Battle of Celestial-Hunting, you treated Zhang Ruochen to a drink, The Twelve Blossoms. I also know that you took Chi Kunlun as your disciple. Aren’t your relationship with Zhang Ruochen closer?” Pan Ruo said.
Yan Wushen was stunned for a moment. Then he laughed loudly. “I was worried that your Highness Pan Ruo will be like other secular women and your heart has been captured by Zhang Ruochen. After all, only he and I are heroes of this Yuanhui period. There are no women who can resist our charm. The difference is that although I am from Yanluo Clan, I cultivate Buddhism. I am destined to have no attachments and be heartless and joyless all my life. But he was a person with emotions... No, to be exact, it should be when he seemed to have emotions, but in reality, he was heartless. When he seemed to be heartless, he actually had emotions. Your Highness Pan Ruo, you have to be careful!”
Pan Ruo obviously knew the reason behind his words. She said coldly, “I cultivated as a Buddha too.”
Yan Wushen was stunned again. He said solemnly, “Alright, now that your Highness Pan Ruo has said this, I can rest assured! We will definitely win this battle.”
