Chapter 426: Fake Death and Sneak Attack

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Lan suddenly charged out from a blade of light. Based on the essence of the Rain of Light Technique, he was already mentally prepared. However, some powerful techniques could not be countered just because one was prepared.

The moment Chen Yiming sensed Jiang Lan’s true body, the blood-red divine sword had already arrived. Unless he used the space anchor, it would be too late to dodge it.

He did not choose to dodge. Instead, he faced the attack head-on.

“Swish!”

Before he could swing his fist, his entire body was split into two by the blood-red divine sword.

The two halves of his corpse floated quietly in space. The dense aura of the power of the world spread out, and the blood essence that spread out seemed to want to ignite the entire galaxy, causing it to turn red.

Dead?

A spatial ability user with extremely strong survival abilities had died just like that?

Was he too careless and did not use his spatial ability to dodge in time? Or was he too careless and thought that he could use his body to withstand the blood-red divine sword in Jiang Lan’s hand?

However, no matter the reason, the dense power of the world spread out in space, indicating that the inner world had been struck by the blood-red divine sword.

The inner world was the most important place to store the power of the world. As long as there were no problems with the inner world, one’s body could automatically be repaired even if it was destroyed.

If something happened in the inner world, at best, one’s cultivation level would drop, and at worst, one would die on the spot.

Chen Yiming looked like he had died on the spot.

Yin Jueying turned into a ray of golden light and arrived beside Jiang Lan in a flash. He stared at Chen Yiming’s corpse and said, “What a pity. The heavens gave him so much talent, but he died just like that.”

“I haven’t even had the chance to use my true strength and fight a good battle. If I miss out on a suitable opponent, I don’t know when I’ll be able to meet one again.”

Jiang Lan held the blood-red divine sword in her hand, and her gaze returned to its usual coldness. “He came from an ordinary world. It’s normal for him to be inexperienced.”

“I just didn’t expect this person to have so little combat experience. Does he really think that a slightly stronger physique can ignore everything? Even if he doesn’t die under my sword this time, he will die under another person’s blade the next time.”

Yin Jueying nodded. That was indeed the case. For example, he had never been so rash. He held back 30% of his strength and could dodge incoming attacks at any time.

In the battle earlier, Chen Yiming had shattered his roc claw with a single punch. But so what? It was only a part of his body, not the most important inner world.

On the other hand, Chen Yiming had been killed by Jiang Lan’s blood-red divine sword. The difference between the two sides was obvious.

In Flying Cloud City, countless gazes were focused on the corpse that had been split into two by the blood-red divine sword. The space became dark and peaceful again.

“I thought Fat Man Gao found someone good this time, but it turns out that he’s just a boor.”

A spatial ability user had been killed due to carelessness. Immediately, someone gave Chen Yiming the evaluation of a boor.

This term did not have any good intentions behind it. He was mocking him for having a talent that countless people envied, which was rare even in the entire Hidden Dragon Galaxy, but it was all wasted.

At the same time, he was also secretly mocking Gao Shuai for tricking them. Now, there were already two so-called “brothers” who had been tricked. The first one had announced that he would cut ties with him in a sorry state, and the second one had been brought to his death.

This could be said to be getting more and more tragic. In the future, no one would dare to interact with him. Then, with Fat Man Gao’s weak combat strength, he would not be able to cause much trouble.

Soon, someone sneered and said, “Since Fat Man Gao can’t borrow powerful external help, he can only stay quiet or choose to be a tool for everyone to find the true dragon’s corpse.”

As soon as he said this, there was laughter everywhere.

As a tool, one’s fate could not be controlled by oneself. If one listened obediently, the outcome might not be good. In fact, after this, for some reason, they were likely to be killed by a powerful existence to prevent future troubles.

On the open-air observation platform, Gao Shuai was dumbfounded.

That was impossible! How could he have died so easily!

A memorable scene appeared in his mind. Back then, he had met Chen Yiming for the first time in the prophecy. After a simple probing, he had been chased down miserably.

Gao Shuai had used many powerful trump cards. For example, the blood-red divine sword that the Jiang clan had given Jiang Lan. The Gao clan had also prepared one for Gao Shuai, and there were many more.

However, he was shocked to see with his own eyes that Chen Yiming’s tenacious vitality made him almost impossible to kill. He had almost used up all his trump cards and couldn’t escape.

Otherwise, he would not have revealed his true prophetic ability just to express his true intention to befriend him.

Qin Hongyue, who was at the side, looked at the two halves of the corpse in the galaxy and then at the stunned Gao Shuai. She was immediately extremely disappointed, as if she had just gotten interested, but it had been brought to a stop.

“Fat Man Gao, it looks like there’s a problem with your prophecy ability this time. The person you found was indeed stunning, but it’s just that he was standing out too much.”

Gao Shuai did not reply to Qin Hongyue.

Looking up at the sky, he saw Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying walking towards Chen Yiming’s corpse. A corpse with a strong physique was worth studying even if it was dead.

In addition, there would always be some spoils of war left behind. In terms of contribution, Jiang Lan would take the bulk of the loot, and Yin Jueying had saved her, so it was not too much to take a small amount.

At the very least, to the alien species, with such vigorous blood essence, it was the most delicious food. Or they could refine blood pills from it to replenish their energy during their daily cultivation.

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

All kinds of gazes, including pity, envy, and regret, watched as Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying walked over to pick up their spoils.

Suddenly, a fist that had partially transformed into the giant form punched out with a vast aura that could shatter the galaxy.

In Flying Cloud City, countless pairs of eyes narrowed.

Gao Shuai smiled again.

Qin Hongyue was stunned.

Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying raised their feet and stopped in midair, their bodies stiffening.

He was not dead!

He faked his death!

At this moment, countless people felt deeply deceived and could not help but panic.

The inner world had been destroyed, but he could still come back to life.

This was very rare in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. There were only a few relevant records in history, and the treasures needed for this to happen were not something that the weakest gods, such as those at the star condensation realm, could obtain.

Furthermore, almost everyone was certain that Chen Yiming had come from an ordinary planet. He wouldn’t have any treasures on him that were worth coveting, nor did he have any powerful secret techniques.

With their first impressions, even Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying, who were the closest to him, were deceived by the illusion that the inner world had been destroyed.

“Bang! Bang!”

With a punch from the giant, two balls of blood mist exploded in the galaxy. These corresponded to Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying, who could not react in time.

Among them, the ball of blood that Jiang Lan had exploded into was much smaller. It should be the effect of the Rain of Light Technique. The ball of blood that Yin Jueying had exploded into was similar to Chen Yiming’s, and his blood dyed the sky red.

At the same time, Chen Yiming’s corpse, which had been cut in half, stood up and fused back into one.

In the blink of an eye, his injuries disappeared without a trace. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, no one would have believed that this person’s inner world had just been destroyed.

His inner world had indeed been destroyed, but it was different from the others. Each cell corresponded to a miniature inner world.

The blood-red divine sword was indeed extremely powerful. Jiang Lan’s mistake was that she hadn’t been able to destroy all of Chen Yiming’s cells and his miniature inner worlds in one go.

On the other side, Jiang Lan’s figure appeared in the air.

At this moment, her condition was extremely bad. The inner world in her body was filled with cracks, and she quickly switched between the form of the rain of light and her normal form to barely prevent the inner world from collapsing.

That punch was too sudden and she was completely unprepared. She had almost died on the spot.

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Time seemed to pass very slowly, but it was still passing by.

Unlike Jiang Lan, Yin Jueying’s figure did not appear again.

At the same time, the huge amount of power released by the destruction of his inner world had scattered in space and dyed it red, proving that he had died from that punch.

He had really died.

The pride of the roc clan, Yin Jueying, did not have any treasures that could help him revive after the inner world was destroyed.

He had treasures like the blood-red divine sword, those for defense, and those for escape. However, none of them could save his life.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jueying had died in the hands of an unknown person that Gao Shuai had found.

In Flying Cloud City, voices of disbelief sounded one after another.

“How dare he? Yin Jueying is a genius of the Roc clan!”

Some people were dumbfounded as Chen Yiming’s figure was reflected in their eyes.

“The person that Fat Man Gao found actually dared to kill him. Furthermore, he attacked the Roc clan, which few people dare to provoke. Is he so confident that he won’t be afraid of being chased down by the entire Roc clan?”

Some of the alien species whispered to each other.

Although the rocs were far inferior to the humans in terms of numbers, their top combat strength was still at the level of the overlords of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.

In addition, every member of the Roc clan was good at speed. It had been many years since a member of the Roc clan who was at the god level was openly killed.

Furthermore, the identity of the person who had died this time was actually an extremely outstanding personage. He secretly had the nickname of the “Little Roc King”.

The ‘Little Roc King’ was given to him in recognition of Yin Jueying’s potential. It meant that as long as he could unleash all his potential normally, he could replace the current king of the Roc clan.

On the open-air observation platform, Qin Hongyue retracted her gaze and said to Gao Shuai with a smile, “The Little Roc King died too aggrievedly. Compared to the last time he fought with others, he was killed before he could even use half of his true strength.”

“However, that person’s physique is really terrifying. Fat Man Gao, where exactly did you find him? Don’t worry, just tell me a bit. I swear I won’t tell anyone.”

Gao Shuai looked at this smile and inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine.

Yin Jueying had died just like that. He really did not expect that Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying would both be defeated.

There was a huge difference between defeat and death. It was impossible for the Roc clan to let this matter go so easily. The pursuit would come soon.

That’s right, he and Chen Yiming would both be chased down.

Soon, Qin Hongyue continued, “Fat Man Gao, I’ve figured something out. Although the Flying Cloud Planet has a space-travel portal, both ends of the corresponding space-travel passage are controlled by humans.”

“In addition, the Flying Cloud Planet is considered a remote area compared to the entire Hidden Dragon Galaxy. You knew that something big would happen, right? Did you think of a way out?”

“Could it be that the otherworld corresponding to the true dragon’s corpse is also in a relatively remote area of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy? Is your true goal to muddy the waters this time?”

Faced with Qin Hongyue’s three consecutive questions, Gao Shuai’s expression froze.

He indeed had the intention to spy on the true dragon’s corpse, but how could there be such a detailed plan? The power of prophecy could not be used recklessly.

However, the more he explained at this moment, the more suspicious she would be of him. Gao Shuai knew this very well and did not say a word, remaining silent.

In the dark space, Chen Yiming turned to look at Jiang Lan, who had an ugly expression on her face.

Jiang Lan knew that even if she had turned into the rain of light, she would not be able to escape the pursuit of a spatial ability user. Even if she used a short-distance space-travel treasure, it would be difficult for her to escape from her opponent’s spatial ability, which seemed to be able to locate her coordinates in space.

Therefore, she had activated a black umbrella that was floating beside her. This was a defensive divine artifact, and it could reach the level of absorbing a star and unleashing its full power.

Jiang Lan took a deep breath and explained calmly, “This divine artifact, the black umbrella, can protect me for at least 10 minutes.”

“And the Little Roc King, Yin Jueying, died at your hands. This is the Flying Cloud Planet, which has a space-travel portal. I don’t need to say anything else, right?”

As she spoke, she panicked.

At this moment, her body was in an extremely poor state. Even with a defensive divine artifact, she was not as carefree as she appeared.

After all, Yin Jueying’s tragic death had happened right in front of her. She could not be careless at all.

As soon as she finished speaking, a spatial rift appeared beside Jiang Lan, and an old man walked out. The person was the Flying Cloud Planet’s ruler, He Tianzheng, who had not appeared all this time.

His face was thin, and there were bandages on his face and body. He looked like he had been sick for a long time. It was barely acceptable that he had not made a move up till now.

Chen Yiming sized He Tianzheng up and said calmly, “It’s not enough for someone at the jade star realm to stop me.”

With the Undying Body talent and the Giant talent, as the level of his two talents increased, it was no longer difficult to fight someone of a higher level. Coupled with the Space Anchor talent, it was even more so.

In fact, if his past achievements were exposed, everyone on the Flying Cloud Planet would be shocked.

He Tianzheng nodded and said, “I know I’m not enough, but the death of the Little Roc King is already due to my dereliction of duty. I can’t let Jiang Lan die here too.”

In other words, it was not that he wanted to stop them, but that the situation forced him to make a move.

After all, the death of the Little Roc King could still be explained as an accident. If Jiang Lan also died, although the He clan was one of the eight great clans of the human race in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, they did not want to create a grudge between the two clans.

This was especially true since it was equivalent to one internal grudge and one external grudge. This would put the He clan’s connections in a very passive position for a long time.

In Flying Cloud City, because of He Tianzheng’s appearance, everyone almost heaved a sigh of relief, but they could not really relax yet.

The jade star realm was one level higher than the star condensation realm. He Tianzheng was not a true genius, but it should be very easy to stall for time.

Soon, with the help of the space-travel portal, existences with enough strength would be able to arrive to resolve this matter.

However, from the condition of He Tianzheng’s body, it was impossible to rely on him completely.

How bad were his injuries under the bandages? No one knew if they were fake injuries or if he was really seriously injured and they needed to be hidden away before he dared to appear.
