Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 344 - 339: I Have Come to Slaughter the City

Shangguan Yanzhong burst into hearty laughter, his voice cheerful and confident, "Vice Chairman Yi, I truly never expected that our Wanjie Commerce could add another member of the Immortal Bridge Realm, haha...

Such a grand event, no matter what happens, I must rush back here, and I must come back to congratulate you."

"Don't hurry with the congratulations, for the authenticity of this Immortal Bridge is still uncertain," an abrupt voice sounded.

Despite the calmness of this voice, not only the entire Boundless City, but also the area within a hundred miles outside of Boundless City, heard it loud and clear.

Everyone followed the voice to see its owner, a young man dressed in plain clothes.

What was different was that, this young man in plain clothes was neither standing on the plaza of Wanjie Commerce nor outside of it, but rather, he was standing above the heads of everyone in the plaza's airspace.

At this moment, he stood in the void, clasping a long spear in his hand, with a tuft of red tassel on the tip of the spear.

Some people who knew the inside story all gasped.

During such grand Immortal Bridge celebrations held by Wanjie Commerce, there was absolutely an airspace prohibition.

To take a step back, even without the prohibition, no one was allowed to stand on top of others' heads, not even Vice Chairman Shangguan Yanzhong, who was now beneath this young man's feet.

This was more than just arrogance, this was downright madness.

Shangguan Yanzhong's eyes narrowed slightly; he was acutely aware of how difficult Ding Huan's technique was.

The airspace prohibition of Boundless City was personally set up by him, as an eighth-level Array King; who could break through the prohibition he had set?

Now, not only had the other party easily broken through it, but he also stood above his head, without even being detected by him.

Setting aside the other party's strength, his mastery of Array Dao was far superior to his own.

"Who might you be, sir?" Shangguan Yanzhong raised his hand to stop several Earth Immortal Elders who wanted to rush forward.

This kind of arrogance shown by Ding Huan in the midst of Wanjie Commerce was certainly going to be met with death. However, before killing him, he needed to know the background of his opponent.

Moreover, he also felt that Ding Huan must be of the Immortal Bridge Realm; otherwise, he wouldn't have such boldness.

Ding Huan had already removed his mask, he did not answer Shangguan Yanzhong's question but announced loudly,

"Ladies and gentlemen, over a decade ago, several of my friends were killed by Wanjie Commerce. Today, I am here to demand justice. This is a grudge between me and Wanjie Commerce.

Once the fight breaks out, blades and spears will have no eyes, and when I slay my enemies, I am not one to hold back.

I urge all those in Boundless City who are not associated with Wanjie Commerce to leave immediately. Those who stay will be deemed as joining forces with Wanjie Commerce against me."

After saying this, Ding Huan looked at Shangguan Yanzhong, "You are the Vice Chairman of Wanjie Commerce, aren't you? I have allowed those unrelated to this grudge to leave first, do you have any objections?"

Shangguan Yanzhong replied indifferently, "Anyone is free to come and go from Boundless City. However, if you refuse to reveal your identity, don't blame me for taking action."

With those words, Shangguan Yanzhong's robes fluttered without any wind, and his raging aura of the Immortal Bridge Realm bore down on Ding Huan.

The domain of his aura slammed into Ding Huan's domain, yet Ding Huan did not budge,

"So the Vice Chairman won't even allow innocent people the time to save their own lives? If you want to involve all the innocents in this, then let's begin."

Shangguan Yanzhong burst into wild laughter, "Very well, then. Within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, all those who are not part of Wanjie Commerce, or unrelated to it, please leave Boundless City.

Of course, those who wish to stay, I, Shangguan Yanzhong, Vice Chairman of Wanjie Commerce, assure you, no one can harm a single hair on your head."

"Vice Chairman Shangguan, since we came here, it's to support Wanjie Commerce. To speak of leaving, that would be too alienating.

The affairs of Wanjie Commerce are our own. Some presumptuous upstart, rising out of nowhere, daring to challenge Wanjie Commerce? Pah! We are willing to advance or retreat together with Wanjie Commerce."

A pale-faced man spoke loudly, his voice conveying a readiness to die for Wanjie Commerce.

"This friend, many do not wish to leave, and there's nothing I can do about that," Shangguan Yanzhong said lightly, looking at Ding Huan.

In reality, nobody echoed what the man had said after he spoke.

Ding Huan too, laughed out loud, "Whether you wish to leave or not, you have the time it takes for an incense stick to burn..."

At this point, Ding Huan raised his voice again,

"I will make it clear to everyone, I am here to slaughter the city today.

All people of Boundless City, whether you are at home or outside, please leave within the time it takes an incense stick to burn. After the time for the incense stick has passed, we will be enemies, and you are responsible for your own life or death..."

"Feigning mystery and trickery..." An Earth Immortal cultivator could not stand it anymore and charged forward, intending to punch Ding Huan down.

But as soon as he had dashed halfway, he was blocked by the airspace prohibition and fell from the void.

Ding Huan did not kill him; he didn't want to slay the innocent, but he knew this guy was definitely not innocent.

He guessed that if he killed this Earth Immortal, it might immediately lead to a chaotic battle.

He didn't care about the chaotic battle, but there were still many truly innocent people who had not left.

Ding Huan remained still, and Shangguan Yanzhong likewise did not move, simply closing his eyes. A long sword hovered above his head, and his powerful domain atmosphere seemed to be swelling intensely.

Had it not been for the fact that his domain had not crushed Ding Huan's domain, he would have gone up and killed Ding Huan long ago.

Even if he could kill Ding Huan now, it would surely result in a large number of deaths, which would not affect Ding Huan but would impact the reputation of Wanjie Commerce.

A few people were already anxiously heading out of the city.

They had realized that Ding Huan was very powerful; Shangguan Yanzhong was unable to crush him.

Those cultivators, Sect Masters, and elders who had come to offer their congratulations were in an awkward position, wondering whether to leave or stay.

To leave would be the equivalent of looking down on Wanjie Commerce and offending them. But to stay, that plain-clothed young man seemed rather troublesome.

"If we can't kill him this time at Wanjie Commerce, we'll have offended another ruthless person."

Few people here believe that Ding Huan would actually kill them if they chose not to leave.

"The Qi Jian Dao Sect Master has left?" Someone in the crowd let out a low exclamation.

The Sect Master of Qi Jian Dao, one of the Three Great Sects of Biankui Star Land.

Although not as powerful as Wanjie Commerce, they were still top-tier in Biankui Star Land.

Seeing the Qi Jian Dao Sect Master depart, over a dozen other Sect Masters soon followed suit.

"People from the Jidao Sect and Mystical Pill Valley have also left..."

"We're just here to watch; there's no point in staying, let's go."

"Right, why should we small fries stay here?"

...

The departure of the Qi Jian Dao Sect Master seemed to create a sense of crisis; even as powerful as Wanjie Commerce was, more and more people were leaving Boundless City.

Most people living in Boundless City thought to themselves, what did this great battle at the Immortal Bridge Realm have to do with them?

They could always come back after the battle was over—would Wanjie Commerce really hold a grudge against these low-level cultivators?

Crowds quickly left Boundless City; toward the end, even the clerks of Wanjie Commerce wanted to leave.

But they didn't dare, for while others would at most offend Wanjie Commerce by leaving, their departure would be seen as treason.

"Sect Master, why should we leave? Aren't we offending Wanjie Commerce by doing this? Wanjie Commerce just gained another Immortal Bridge, and we..." The Qi Jian Dao Elder whispered to Sect Master Ye Lie as they left Boundless City.

Ye Lie coldly said, "Do you know why Yi Canzhen, the Vice Chairman of Wanjie Commerce, was able to advance to the Immortal Bridge Realm?"

"I heard it was because of a Nine-colored Immortal Mortal Lotus," the Elder replied.

Ye Lie snorted, "Then do you know that a Nine-colored Immortal Mortal Lotus was auctioned off at Wanjie Commerce's Void Flying City twenty years ago?"

"Of course I know, at that time, it seemed that over two hundred Earth Immortal powerhouses attacked the cultivator who bought the lotus, but they were completely annihilated..."

As the Elder said this, he seemed to realize something and looked at Sect Master with shock, "Could it be, could it be..."

Ye Lie sighed, "Today's matter will definitely not be simply resolved. Think about it, what did that young man say was his reason for coming here?"

"It was because several of his friends were killed here more than a decade ago..."

The Elder finally understood; they remembered what had happened a decade ago very well.

Because it was the only time since Wanjie Commerce's establishment that someone dared to tear up a Wanjie Commerce wanted notice and kill an Earth Immortal Elder of Wanjie Commerce.

Obviously, the person on that wanted notice was the young man who had arrived today, and the one killed by Wanjie Commerce back then was this young man's friend.

The man had come for revenge.

Clearly, not just Ye Lie had figured this out; some other Sect Masters had as well.

Since it was this kind of situation, nobody wanted to get involved. They had to retreat, even if it meant offending Wanjie Commerce.

"That young man also knew that there are so many Sect Masters and Elders here; he is alone and weak, so he let irrelevant people leave," the Elder lamented.

Ye Lie said helplessly, "Elder Ju, do you think that young man is afraid of large numbers? He just doesn't want to kill the innocent or make enemies carelessly.

If he lets us go and we don't, we are not just making an enemy; we are taking a stand with Wanjie Commerce. Naturally, he will feel no remorse in cutting us down."

...

"The incense stick has burned down; let me, Shangguan Yanzhong, have the honor to experience your skills," Shangguan Yanzhong finished speaking, stepped forward through the Void, and charged toward Ding Huan.

He didn't continue to inquire about Ding Huan's origin, as it seemed he already knew who Ding Huan was.

Ding Huan raised his hand and drew Array Patterns, immediately locking down the entire Boundless City with a Killing Array. At the same time, Ding Huan released the Poison Array.

Some cultivators who hadn't left were panicking.

"Why did Chairman Shangguan lock down Boundless City?"

"Idiot, Boundless City wasn't locked by Chairman Shangguan, but by that guy..."

"So what if it was? He's digging his own grave by locking down his escape route; that's even better."

Some cultivators who sensed something was wrong silently prepared to leave, as the Protecting Array of Boundless City was set up by Wanjie Commerce.

If Wanjie Commerce could control the Big Array, it certainly wouldn't be locked down by an outsider.

Shangguan Yanzhong's long sword stirred up whirlwinds of Sword Qi, and his Immortal Bridge Realm Domain seemed to physically press down on Ding Huan.

The whirlwinds of Sword Qi enveloped Ding Huan in the middle and then formed a massive vortex of Sword Qi.

This vortex was endless, with the sword light crisscrossing, aiming to rip Ding Huan into pieces.

Looking at the Sword Qi whirlwind wrapped around him, Ding Huan made no move to fight back because he wanted to know if he had the ability to break through in the opponent's Divine Power Domain.

Otherwise, before Shangguan Yanzhong's Sword Qi vortex could form, Ding Huan could have destroyed his Divine Skills.

"Chairman, this person killed Peng Sa from our Peng Family, and we are irreconcilable with him..."

A mournful voice rose, followed by a man in red who also charged forward, his Divine Power Domain already stacking on top of Shangguan Yanzhong's Domain pressing down on Ding Huan.
