The Immortal Emperor Returns - Chapter 693
Chapter 693 Waiting for Gains Without Pains
In the long and narrow valley, the strong wind couldn’t disperse the dense smell of blood. Chu Xun killed Wu Li and threw another over two hundred boulders that weighed hundreds of thousands of kilograms into the golden vortex until it couldn’t bear the weight and collapsed.
Actually, Chu Xun was not sure if his speculation was right.
He wanted to prevent the major forces from attacking the cities.
Ziwei City might not be able to resist the joint attack of all the forces.
Chu Xun returned to the Earth residents who survived. The Assembly of Immortals only had Bai Haihan alive on the scene.
“Liu Tianhe, so cruel as you are, you will be killed by the alliance of all the major forces one day. If I die, you won’t live!” Bai Haihan fiercely howled.
Chu Xun sneered and said, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to see my death.”
“Liu Tianhe, if you wish to fight over first place on the Vanquishing Fiends List, I can give you my Vanquishing Fiends Count. Why do you want to kill me?” Bai Haihan angrily roared.
“I not only want to be the first on the Vanquishing Fiends List, but I also want to be the only one on it. Therefore, all of you must die.”
“Liu Tianhe, you will die miserably considering your actions.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Go to hell.” Chu Xun raised his hand and slapped it down.
Bai Haihan roared. Seriously injured, he was no match for Chu Xun even in his best state. Demon-slaughtering Palm fell and smashed Bai Haihan directly into the mud, and the earth cracked.
Chu Xun looked at the Earth residents alive, and his killing intent was dissipating.
He quickly walked to the Earth expert at the Great Completion of the Gold Immortal Realm who had almost been beheaded by Bai Haihan before.
“You fiend, if you want to kill me, just do it. Don’t humiliate me.”
Chu Xun sighed and then struck down with his palm. The man closed his eyes and waited for death. But the next moment, he felt a majestic power entering his body and quickly repairing his injury. He opened his eyes in surprise, his face full of disbelief.
Next, Chu Xun began to heal the other two experts at the Great Completion of the Gold Immortal Realm.
After that, he came to the middle-aged man in the High Immortal Realm. The person had behaved extremely brave, not afraid of death. His cultivation was almost exhausted, but he was not badly hurt. The wounds were not something serious for the warriors.
The middle-aged man looked shocked.
The more than 100 Earth residents who had survived looked at Chu Xun with dull eyes. They didn’t expect Chu Xun hadn’t slaughtered them.
They had thought that Chu Xun would kill them all with his cruel means. He showed no mercy when he killed those people from the Assembly of Immortals, not to mention the Earth residents.
However, not only did Chu Xun not kill them, but he also healed the injured. They didn’t understand him.
“You guys are too careless. Since you have lived here for so long, don’t you know that folding space opened some days ago?” Chu Xun was a little angry. If they stayed in their cities, many people would not have died.
The middle-aged man even forgot to heal himself. He looked at Chu Xun and asked, “Why do you save us?”
Chu Xun turned around and looked at him. He chuckled and said, “We’re all from Earth. Should I save the people of the Assembly of Immortals instead of you?”
As soon as he said that, everyone was extremely shocked. “Is he from Earth?”
The middle-aged man quickly sobered up. “Where do you come from? Why have I never seen you before?”
“I came in when the entrance of the folding space opened this time. My name is Chu Xun.”
“It’s impossible! How could an Earth resident live in the Immortal Domain?” The middle-aged man didn’t believe his words.
Chu Xun did not conceal anything from the middle-aged person. Chu Xun said that he fought outsiders in outer space at first but then came to the Immortal Domain Star somehow. Chu Xun also mentioned how he entered the folding space.
The middle-aged man muttered to himself for a long. Then a cold smile appeared on his face. He laughed louder and louder.
Chu Xun did not make a sound, knowing his story was so strange that the other side did not believe him at all.
“You brutes from the Assembly of Immortals. Don’t try to fool us!” The middle-aged man sneered.
The others looked at the middle-aged man and didn’t understand why he said that for a while.
“Don’t be fooled by him. He is not from Earth. He must be from the Assembly of Immortals. He did this to sneak into our cities with us. Then he will coordinate with his companions.”
Everyone’s expression changed. If Chu Xun was from the Assembly of Immortals, why had he slaughtered all the Chosen Ones from the Assembly of Immortals present just now?
The middle-aged man knew what they were thinking, so he explained, “The people of the Assembly of Immortals have always been insidious and cunning. They won’t stop until they achieve their goals. So what if a few people die? As long as they can sneak into our cities, they won’t care no matter how many people die.”
Chu Xun’s expression was indifferent. “Are you out of your mind? Or do you have a persecution mania? Don’t think you’re smart.”
“You and I both know if I’m smart or if you have sinister motives,” the middle-aged man sneered. “We’re not afraid of death, and you don’t even think about exploiting us to get into our cities.”
Chu Xun was speechless but could understand him. What Chu Xun had experienced was too strange. Even though he used to be an Immortal Emperor, he still couldn’t figure out how he came to the Immortal Domain Star, let alone these people.
“What should I do to make you trust me?” Chu Xun asked.
The middle-aged man couldn’t think of a way at the moment. He didn’t know how to prove that either. Chu Xun had killed tens of the Assembly of Immortals already and even annihilated the experts in the High Immortal Realm of the Assembly of Immortals.
“The experts in the High Immortal Realm were precious. If I were from the Assembly of Immortals, would I have paid such a big price to deceive you?” Chu Xun asked.
The middle-aged man was tempted. However, it was related to the lives of countless people from Earth, so he had to be cautious.
Roar!
Suddenly, dragon roars sounded inside Chu Xun’s body. A golden dragon shadow rose to the sky. The huge dragon shadow enveloped Chu Xun, and a terrifying pressure spread out.
“Our ancestors and the dragon were closely related, right? Can it prove my identity?” Chu Xun asked.
The middle-aged man remained silent. It was only a martial skill, so he didn’t think it could prove Chu Xun’s identity.
Chu Xun was also helpless at this time. He sighed and said, “Although you don’t believe me, I don’t mind. Time will prove everything.”
Next, Chu Xun didn’t bother to explain. He walked a hundred meters away and raised his hand to set up a Hiding Formation.
“Please go into the formation and heal yourselves. No one can break the formation. After fully recovered, go back to your cities quickly,” Chu Xun said.
The middle-aged man hesitated.
Chu Xun was annoyed. “It’s easy for me to kill you. Why don’t you try to believe me? Before Wu Li died, he activated the Transmission Talisman. Some of his companions might have been rushing here. This formation can save your lives.”
“If you can prove that I have understood you in the future, I will apologize to you.” The middle-aged man cupped his fists and ordered, “Withdraw into the formation.”
Chu Xun watched everyone withdraw into the formation, then walked over and took the stone tablets of Shi Mohan and Bai Haihan to get their Vanquishing Fiends Counts. The Vanquishing Fiends List in the air suddenly changed.
Now, Chu Xun’s Vanquishing Fiends Count reached more than 900. He replaced Shi Mohan and became the fifth on the list.
Then Chu Xun burned the bodies of those Chosen Ones from the Assembly of Immortals into ashes with the Violet Underworld Flame and turned to leave.
Chu Xun felt depressed. It was not easy to meet his compatriots, but he couldn’t gain trust. He wasn’t feeling good.
However, Chu Xun could understand them. The Earth people had been imprisoned in this folding space at the disposal of the Assembly of Immortals. Maybe they were too frightened by the people of the Assembly of Immortals.
After all, in Ziwei City, he had seen a poor boy with weak cultivation only in his teens.
If an outsider snuck into the city and cooperated from within, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It was understandable that they did not believe him, but it was stupid to question him face to face. If he really belonged to the Assembly of Immortals and was seen through on the spot, would he have let these people survive?
Chu Xun’s ranking appeared in the air and on the huge image stone outside. The folding space caused an uproar.
Chu Xun had hidden his identity well. However, Wu Kejin saw through his identity. All the forces outside the folding space now knew the identity of Chu Xun.
When they saw that Chu Xun ranked fifth and replaced Shi Mohan, the expressions of the warriors of the Assembly of Immortals changed.
Chu Xun was an Earth resident, so his Vanquishing Fiends Count couldn’t come from killing Earth residents. He could only rob it.
Chu Xun replaced Shi Mohan, which meant that something had happened to Shi Mohan.
The presbyter of the Heavenly Saint Pavilion was so angry that his eyes turned scarlet. He almost smashed the image stone with his palm.
The presbyters of various forces all looked sad. They knew Chu Xun’s strength very well, and he could fight above his level.
This type of person was like a disaster for the Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals inside the folding space, not to mention they didn’t know his identity. He was so terrifying.
They could only pray in their hearts that someone in the folding space could see through Chu Xun’s real identity as soon as possible. Otherwise, the consequences were unimaginable.
In the folding space, when Chu Xun left the valley, more than a dozen experts of the High Immortal Realm were on their way, wanting to kill him. The siege of Ziwei City was put on hold for the time being.
That was what Chu Xun wanted to see.
Chu Xun ran alone in the folding space.
A few days later, Chu Xun’s ranking had reached the fourth place, and his Vanquishing Fiends Count had reached more than 1,300.
On a slope, more than 20 bodies were lying in disorder. Chu Xun threw away the stone tablet that he had robbed. He had taken away the Vanquishing Fiends Count in it. The stone tablet was useless.
This was the seventh group of Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals he had killed in the past few days.
Regardless of which force they were from, once Chu Xun encountered them, he killed them.
Chu Xun was now looking for the top three people on the list, especially Wang Yunzhe. His Vanquishing Fiends Count had already reached two thousand. How did he do that?
In any case, Chu Xun must eliminate the top three executioners whose hands were stained with the blood of Earth residents.
However, the folding space was so enormous. Where should he go to find them?
In the next few days, perhaps because of Chu Xun’s bad luck or the good luck of the Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals, Chu Xun only met a team of twenty people of the Chosen Ones.
Seeing that the fifth person on the ranking list was about to replace him, Chu Xun was anxious in his heart. He used the most stupid method. On the way to Ziwei City, there was a big mountain, which was more than 500 meters high.
Chu Xun climbed up to the top of the mountain and was ready to wait there.
Strangely, even if he couldn’t fly in this folding space, he could ascend such a high mountain without being affected.
This method was quite effective.
One day later, Chu Xun ambushed three more groups of the Assembly of Immortals so that his Vanquishing Fiends Count kept a distance from the fifth person on the list.
Chu Xun didn’t know that the top three were also looking for him. They wanted to rob him of his Vanquishing Fiends Count.
On the way to Ziwei City, a group of people was moving forward. There were over 30 people, and the leader was a young man in white that held a white jade fan, and he possessed a graceful bearing.
However, he was ranked third on the list. He was He Yijun. He looked like a gentleman with a gentle appearance, but his skills were vicious.
None of the Earth residents who encountered him survived. Not even a single intact corpse could remain.
