Chapter 1627: Chapter 1623: Step by Step Forward (First Update)
Sally silently retreated to her father’s side, her face guarded as she watched Xue An.
The Light Divine King’s expression was indecisive, and he finally sighed softly.
"Why are you doing this? I have already made concessions, even at such a great cost, so wouldn’t it be better if you took what you wanted and left? Why insist on digging deeper?"
"Are these two questions more important than those twenty-five billion Spirit Crystals?"
The Light Divine King was full of confusion.
Xue An nodded, "You’re right, in my eyes, these two questions are far more important than those so-called Spirit Crystals because I really want to know who committed heinous crimes against the living beings on Earth!"
The Light Divine King looked surprised, "Just for this matter, you pursued me here?"
"This matter?" Xue An retorted, "In your eyes, is the life and death of billions of beings just this matter?"
The Light Divine King was silent. After a deep look at Xue An, he couldn’t help but say, "I really don’t understand how a powerful person like you can still care about these things. Is it that ridiculous sense of morality?"
Xue An shrugged, "See, this is the problem! In the eyes of you deities who consider yourselves superior, morality is actually ridiculous! But to me, every life is worthy of respect, especially the beings on Earth!"
The Light Divine King remained silent, until after a long time, he finally lifted his head to look at Xue An, "I can only say... I have nothing to divulge about these two questions!"
Xue An seemed to have predicted this outcome and couldn’t help but sigh, "It’s really a pity! Then I can only ask you to die!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of many deities changed drastically.
Especially Sally, who frantically signaled to the guards in the distance.
People began silently gathering around, surrounding Xue An completely.
The Light Divine King showed a hesitant expression, unable to comprehend Xue An fully, but a foreboding premonition remained in his mind, making his heart tremble.
Finally, he said, "Is there really no room for salvaging this?"
Xue An calmly replied, "There is! Tell me the answers to the questions and I might spare your life!"
"You know that’s impossible, because once I tell you, I will die too!"
"So... you should just die now!"
As soon as Xue An’s words fell, Sally shouted angrily, "Do it!"
With the command, all guards took action, completely sealing off Xue An.
Bang!
The violent explosion caused everyone to retreat simultaneously.
Sally’s face showed a cold smile.
No one could survive such an explosion, not even a deity.
Therefore, this person must be doomed.
"Father, you need not worry, the person who dared to provoke you is already dead!" Sally respectfully stated.
But she did not receive the praise she expected from her father, only silence.
This made her raise her head in astonishment, only to be dumbfounded.
Because the avatar of the Light Divine King that was just in front of her had disappeared without a trace.
What’s going on?
Why did Father suddenly leave?
Could it be he already foresaw that I would eliminate this guy?
These questions just welled up in her mind.
In the series of explosions, Xue An, dressed in white, stepped out slowly with poise, his hair not even disturbed.
Seeing this scene, Sally gasped sharply, her pupils constricted to the size of needlepoints.
How is this possible!
How could he walk out unscathed from the center of the explosion?
At the same time, Xue An surveyed the surroundings and sighed softly, "Pitiful! To be used as a pawn without knowing! So be it, I will send you on your way first!"
Pawn?
This term shocked Sally, and combined with her father’s sudden departure, she immediately understood.
It turned out Father already knew the prowess of this Human Clan youth, so he used us as shields while he fled?
Even though she didn’t want to believe it was true, facts spoke louder than words.
And Sally’s response was quick; she shouted, "Stop him!"
But after saying this, she retreated instead, rushing madly out.
The guards were confused, yet they all followed Sally’s command and charged forward.
Xue An showed no mercy.
For those accustomed to arrogance and slaughter, any pity is a crime against the lives lost at their hands.
Thus, Xue An breathed, raised his fist, and struck!
This punch seemed to drain all vitality from the entire arena.
The nearest guards didn’t even utter a sound before turning to dust.
The others, witnessing this horrifying scene, were scared out of their wits, those who reacted fast attempted to escape.
But it was too late.
The force of the punch quickly spread, where it passed, flesh and blood scattered, turning entirely to dust.
Hearing the sounds of breaking and screams from behind, Sally was terrified, wishing she had two extra pairs of wings to escape further.
Yet before she could step through the casino door, a soft sigh came from behind.
"Blame your usual arrogance! So... rest in peace!"
"No!" Sally screamed, her speed suddenly increasing.
But no matter how fast, she could not outpace the speed of Xue An’s sword.
A sliver of sword glow flew through the air.
With a puff, blood sprayed everywhere.
Sally froze in place, full of horror.
Xue An didn’t even glance at her, walked past, and directly headed towards the Divine Temple in the city’s center.
As Xue An departed, a faint red line appeared on Sally’s throat.
Soon after, the line rapidly expanded, and Sally collapsed to the ground, her eyes dimming with the loss of blood, finally falling, her life extinguished.
Indeed!
With just one sword strike, Xue An shattered the godly soul of the deity with Divine King bloodline.
The wind arose outside, though it was unclear when.
Seemingly sensing something, the entire city fell terrifyingly silent, even the most arrogant people were hiding in the shadows, trembling.
Xue An was not in a hurry, walking step by step.
Each step, his aura grew more intense.
In the end, his presence surged into the sky, almost tangible, stirring much of the sky into stormy chaos.
Luo Lanting watched Xue An’s back with full admiration.
She never imagined the talk of killing onto the Ninth Heaven was not metaphorical, but something he truly intended to do!
Such demeanor could not leave Luo Lanting unaffected.
Finally.
The Central Divine Temple arrived.
Yet just as Xue An stepped into the Central Divine Temple.
A dazzling light appeared before him, followed by countless Holy Light Angels emerging in the air, blocking Xue An’s path.
