Chapter 2024: Chapter 2044: They Sold You Out, and You Are Even Counting Money for Them!_1

Facing Nangong Night’s furious reprimand, Lin Chen just shrugged his shoulders, laughing heartily at the numerous immortals looking up from below.

"You think that submission will bring you peace, or even that voluntary surrender will earn you merit in the land of Dragons, elevating you above others. Stop dreaming," he mocked.

"In the eyes of the members of the Three-Saint Sect, you lot are nothing more than toilet paper, trash to be discarded after use. You’re gleefully trailing in their wake, assisting them as enforcers. It’s like they’re selling you out, and you’re even counting the money for them!"

Lin Chen’s words struck like a harsh slap to the faces of those thousands of Immortals, stinging fiercely and unbearably.

Without a doubt, some were forced into their current position because their sect had been attacked, its senior management killed, and its people abducted. But most had chosen to adapt to the circumstances, intending to seek refuge with the Three-Saint Sect for a chance of survival. Now, it seemed, they were deluding themselves.

Are they imagining that sticking close to a power brings comfort?

Or perhaps servitude in exchange for survival as something as insignificant as a miner?

Lin Chen burst into laughter: "What are you standing there for? Run! If you don’t start running now, by the time they recover and get control of the situation, there won’t be a chance for you to escape. Sure, some people will undoubtedly die in the process, but there’s a chance it won’t be you, right?"

"To flee and possibly die, or to stay and work yourself to death as a miner—do we really have to think hard about this choice?"

"Shut up!"

Nangong Night was about to explode. This guy was publicly inciting all the immortals to escape. If these people fled and the news spread, how would he be able to capture anyone else in the future? Who would surrender to him or serve as his henchman?

Even henchmen fear death and worry about being cast aside once they’re no longer useful. Therefore, it was foreseeable that even if they managed to overcome the Immortal Palace, all the Immortals would go into hiding, making it hard for him to find them.

Even if he sent out the Sky Horse Knight Team to capture people, how many could they possibly apprehend?

These people fear the Da Luo Venerable, but they would not fear the Sky Horse Knights. No matter how powerful the Sky Horse Knights were, they would at most be Peak Celestial Immortals. Though strong, how much superior could they be to these people?

If the Sky Horse Knights found them, the most likely scenario would be a brief confrontation, followed by them escaping again.

No matter how powerful the Sky Horse Knights might be, how many fights could they handle?

One couldn’t possibly expect him to roam around the world to apprehend people, could they?

Lin Chen spread his hands, smiling brightly at Nangong Night. His face was aglow with a brilliant smile: "What’s the matter? Can’t handle the truth, so you’re getting angry?

Nangong Night no longer wanted to say anything to Lin Chen. He turned his head and shouted, "Sky Horse Knights, watch over everyone. Kill anyone who tries to escape!"

The Sky Horse Knights responded with a murderous aura: "Yes!"

The sky suddenly blazed with fire, enveloping Lin Chen. However, Lin Chen had been keeping a keen eye on Nangong Night and in the blink of an eye when the attack came, Lin Chen retreated a step and, with a flash of the Dao Pattern, his figure evaporated.

The blaze in the sky exploded, only to incinerate nothingness. freewёbnoνel.com

"I told you, this is my playground. I can come and go as I please. You can’t do anything about it. If you want to kill me, come and try," he taunted.

Nangong Night was so enraged he was almost spitting fire. This kid was unbearably annoying.

To chase and kill him?

This manifestation of him was just a split form. Even if he killed it, it wouldn’t have any effect. Just like the last time, he killed Lin Chen’s split form, didn’t Lin Chen just bounce back alive and kicking?

But to spare him, it simply wouldn’t quell the rage in his heart. This kid was like a buzzing fly by the ear, creating utter chaos in his mind.

Furthermore, it hadn’t escaped his notice that the tens of thousands of immortals below had become increasingly restless and seemed ready to revolt at any moment.

If he was not present here, who could possibly deter them?

As Nangong Night was caught in this internal struggle, a voice echoed from the flying boat, it was Zuo Gūhong’s.

"You go. I’ll keep an eye on things here. Nothing will go wrong."

Nangong Night, reminded of the previous incident when he was lured away and Mo Yun Sen got killed, hesitated for a moment and then transmitted his voice to Zuo Gūhong: "I fear this kid might be drawing out the viper, waiting for you to be alone and vulnerable, and then attempt to kill you!"

Zuo Gūhong responded: "No worries, I will stay inside the flying boat. Even if they have some plan, they can’t get in. The flying boat is not something that can be breached by a single Da Luo Venerable. And now that I’m prepared, how could he possibly succeed in killing me even if I went outside?"

Nangong Night nodded, but still felt uneasy and warned, "Safety first. You should stay inside the boat. This kid is full of tricks, and we must take precautions."

Zuo Gūhong nodded: "Alright, I’ll just stay put here and watch. I don’t believe anyone would dare to escape."

"That’s settled then. I’m going to eliminate that bastard’s split form. He is unbearable. I will grind him to dust sooner or later!"

Even though Nangong Night knew that Lin Chen was only a split form, he couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart. Also, he wanted to try and see if he could capture Lin Chen’s split form alive and then study it to understand what was going on.

Nangong Night transformed into a long rainbow, extending towards Lin Chen in the distance.

Lin Chen sprinted away, not forgetting to shout, "He’s chasing me! You better start fleeing!"

Lin Chen’s voice echoed in the sky, the restlessness in the eyes of the Immortals below becoming more and more apparent.

The Sky Horse Knights each held their magical weapons. Stationed in the sky, their expressions started to show signs of tension.

No matter how powerful they were, they wouldn’t be able to resist the onslaught of tens of thousands of immortals!

Zuo Gūhong appeared on the deck, his voice stern: "Although I may not be able to kill all of you, I guarantee that whoever runs first will definitely die!"
