CHAPTER 1070: CHAPTER 1060: MAKING A MOVE

Lu Yingtian and Ancestor Kugu, among others, although not planning to make a move, intentionally retreated to the side.

But at this moment, seeing the Seven Killings Demon Lord acting so arrogantly in front of Chen Hai, everyone looked at each other with extremely peculiar expressions.

All of them were Quasi-Saint Strong, having lived countless years, and even if they had no personal connection with the Seven Killings Demon Lord, they had certainly heard of his reputation.

In terms of strength, this person was not much different from Lu Yingtian, likely in the same tier.

With just his level of strength, could he withstand a punch from Chen Hai?

Just thinking about it, everyone felt that it seemed quite risky!

Although they had some dissatisfaction with Chen Hai, they were very wary of his formidable strength.

If not for this reason, at this moment, they would not have simply stayed back without intervening.

"Seven Killings Demon Lord, was it? What did you just say? I didn’t quite catch that, could you repeat it?"

With a cold smile, Chen Hai smirked and continued: "The conflict between you and Tie Feng, what’s that got to do with me?"

"Discovering the Path Enlightenment Flower only proves that there is indeed a bit of fate between you and this item."

"But failing to keep it, letting it end up in my hands, shows that your fate with this divine item isn’t enough!"

"Opportunities are such that if you miss them, you can’t force them to stay."

"I suggest you accept your fate honestly and leave this place immediately. Maybe, if luck is on your side, other opportunities await you!"

"As for the Path Enlightenment Flower, it’s already in my possession; you should stop having ideas about it!"

He could actually tell that what the Seven Killings Demon Lord said earlier should be the truth.

The Quasi-Saints previously gathered in the Mysterious Turtle Hall, after entering the Land of Slumber, would surely choose to band together for warmth. With just Tie Feng’s level of strength, he shouldn’t have had the courage to venture alone in this place.

He and Seven Killings Demon Lord, among others, were originally in the same group. After encountering the Path Enlightenment Flower opportunity, while others were fighting furiously, he found a chance to seize the Path Enlightenment Flower and flee.

This fact was reasonable and logical, leaving no room for contradiction.

When Seven Killings Demon Lord angrily accused Tie Feng in front of Chen Hai, since Tie Feng didn’t refute, it represented an implicit admission.

However, if you think about it, the deed is already done, and hiding it is now impossible.

After all, on the side of the Seven Killings Demon Lord, there were quite a few people. Unless an accident happened, those actions of Tie Feng could be confirmed by many witnesses who had seen the incidents unfold.

If Chen Hai were concerned, just a little investigation would reveal the truth of the matter.

In front of Chen Hai, if Tie Feng were to deny responsibility, it would surely only make Chen Hai dislike him. Since that’s the case, he might as well straightforwardly admit it!

In the Primordial world, although it was always the survival of the fittest, the strong oppressing the weak was not what Chen Hai wished for.

Outside the Land of Slumber, the great threat of the Divine Ancestor Douzhan was still present.

Facing this Great Power, who stood out even among the Primordial Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals, Chen Hai, even if only wishing to protect himself, without strength, everything was empty talk.

The Path Enlightenment Flower, a divine item that can enhance one’s own strength, having the fortune to encounter it, he certainly would not easily let it slip by.

For this, even if it meant oppressing the weak this once, he gritted his teeth and accepted it.

Besides, although the Seven Killings Demon Lord and others discovered the Path Enlightenment Flower first, since they failed to protect it, it meant they lacked the capability and affinity with it.

In truth, if this item had not been quickly taken by Chen Hai, just Lu Yingtian and Ancestor Kugu alone would definitely have fought hard against the Seven Killings Demon Lord and others over it.

Undoubtedly, after such a big battle, quite a few people on both sides would end up buried here.

Thinking this way, Chen Hai’s heart felt much more at ease.

After all, saving a life is worth more than building a seven-story pagoda.

By taking away the Path Enlightenment Flower, he was doing it for their good, saving their lives!

It’s a pity, Chen Hai’s painstaking care was completely unappreciated and misunderstood by the Seven Killings Demon Lord and others.

"Kid, are you messing with me?"

"If you are unwilling to hand over the Path Enlightenment Flower, then prepare to die!"

Seeing that Chen Hai had no intention of handing over the Path Enlightenment Flower, the Seven Killings Demon Lord, with a mind filled with nameless rage, snarled after holding it back for so long. He took the lead, charging at Chen Hai.

Brimming with murderous energy, with a blood-red blade in hand, he unleashed a single slash.

The Blood Cloud surged, endless blood-red sweeping across the sky, and the Seven Killings Demon Lord himself had already submerged into that overwhelming Blood Cloud.

This strike seemed as though it transcended the boundaries of time and space; just as the layers of Blood Cloud appeared, in the next moment, they were already mere meters away from Chen Hai.

The overwhelming bloody aura could make those with insufficient strength dizzy, nauseous, and vomiting just by inhaling it slightly. At worst, it could make them pass out on the spot, falling unconscious to the ground.

"I intended my heart for the moon, but the moon shone on the ditch!"

"Some people just can’t see themselves clearly, refusing the toast only to be forced to drink the penalty wine instead?"

"Speaking kindly to them, but they just think I’m easy to bully. Since they insist on forcing my hand, I’ll grant them their wish!"

...

Looking at the Blood Cloud that had come so close, about to engulf him, Chen Hai sighed helplessly.

Originally, he thought that the Path Enlightenment Flower he acquired was ultimately an opportunity first discovered by the Seven Killings Demon Lord and others.

Gaining this treasure, in a certain sense, meant that he benefited from their fortune.

Given this sentiment, had the Seven Killings Demon Lord been wiser, he genuinely didn’t wish to attack him.

It’s a pity that his goodwill, in others’ eyes, was completely unappreciated.

With good intentions, he advised them to accept fate and leave quickly, yet this guy felt he was being messed with, promptly lashing out and attacking him.

The Blood Cloud, although not yet over him, the murderous intent within had already solidified.

It seemed that the Blood Cloud condensed by the Seven Killings Demon Lord was not a hasty move but one many ages in the making.

This move wasn’t exploratory; it was genuine and meant to take his life!

Some things can be tolerated, but now, when others are ready to kill you, even the kind-hearted and benevolent Chen Hai couldn’t take it anymore.

"Break!" With a light breath, he extended his hand and pointed towards the Blood Cloud.
