CHAPTER 1453: 1453: SHAMELESSNESS TO THE EXTREME! PART 2

Breaking an oath, will Earth’s will manifest as a dragon to punish the oath-breaker?

Although the sound of the arrivals was faint, it was captured by the livestream platform, leaving everyone watching the livestream dumbstruck.

Doesn’t this mean that anyone who dares to break their promise in the future will face divine retribution?

In truth, this perspective is both right and wrong. Divine Punishment from Heaven is targeted, only those who practice martial arts and defy fate can provoke such punishment.

For example, Nangong Ao right now.

"Hmph, another dragon? It’s not like I haven’t torn one apart before. Even if you are Cang Tian’s punishment for me, I can still destroy you." Nangong Ao ignored the dragon formed by Earth’s will and charged straight up into the sky, attacking the dragon.

Ye Qiu retreated to a distance, whispering to himself, "You reap what you sow, you can’t blame anyone else for your own death wish."

At this moment, Nangong Ao became the focal point, drawing all eyes to him. After all, everyone wanted to know the cost of breaking an oath.

Nangong Ao was awe-inspiring, as if he could step on the dragon and burst out of the galactic system.

Yet, just as Nangong Ao was about to near the dragon, a beam of light shot out from the dragon’s mouth.

What followed was a blinding whiteness that enveloped everything, rendering all colors invisible—everything was white.

Gradually, other colors emerged in people’s eyes, allowing them to see other things once more.

What just happened?

This point was clear to the arrivals—because the dragon’s emitted light was too dazzling, everyone focused on this moment was temporarily blinded, only able to see one color, white.

"What happened to that shameless guy?" Many people looked up only to find that Nangong Ao had disappeared, as had the dragon.

"Gone?"

"Could he have been reduced to ashes?"

Speculation ran rife, but soon the livestream camera shifted, immediately locking onto a charred corpse on the ground.

"Is this the body of that person from before?"

"Dead?"

"Good riddance, treating oaths as a joke, deserves punishment."

Those watching the livestream clapped in glee; Nangong Ao’s death was seen as a just punishment, given his utter shamelessness.

Nangong Ao turned into a corpse, charred beyond recognition, as expected by Ye Qiu. Previously, when the Taoist of Peach Blossom used power beyond the Broken Void, he too was slain by the dragon, but the level of destruction left his body charred like this.

"It seems breaking an oath is more terrifying than using power beyond the Broken Void," Ye Qiu thought with some apprehension as he looked at the sky, realizing that Heaven punishes oath-breakers more severely.

Ye Qiu realized he should never casually promise or swear anything in the future; failing to fulfill or breaking them would have severe consequences.

For other arrivals, Nangong Ao becoming a corpse had an even greater impact. After all, he was perfectly alive before, yet lost his life in an instant. Who would have thought he would meet his end on Earth, and probably Nangong Ao himself didn’t foresee his own demise.

Nonetheless, this couldn’t be verified—Nangong Ao was simply dead.

But his death immediately sparked another issue: this battle seemed to be another victory for Ye Qiu.

"Acting on that guy’s words, the young master challenged, and now victory is justified," said the Purple Gold Mouse. Despite his sly demeanor, these words won the rare approval of everyone around him.

"The fight has been fought, the victor’s been decided, these guys should retreat now."

The arrivals realized this problem, exchanging glances, with each having a reluctance in their gaze to leave just yet.

Ye Qiu slowly walked forward, stopped thirty meters away, and said softly, "I, Ye Qiu, fought another battle at your suggestion, and the outcome is right before us. Can you all now leave the precincts of my Moon-Watching Peak?"

The arrivals remained silent for a while, when suddenly a voice of doubt emerged: "The victory you speak of seems unrelated to you, doesn’t it? Nangong Ao’s death was not at your hand, so it doesn’t count as your victory, this battle doesn’t count."

This arrival’s voice spread everywhere, heard clearly by all.

The livestream platform exploded once more.

"Damn, they’re shameless to the core, denying it again? Where on earth are these people from, showing no credit whatsoever?"

"Right on, buddy upstairs, these folks must be aliens."

"I think they’ve lost all shame, so denying it again isn’t surprising, but it’s a pity our War God Ye ran into a bunch of rascals."

The people behind Ye Qiu were also enraged; if not for the disparity in strength, they all wished to rush up and show these arrivals how to behave.

"We want a decisive victory, not relying on others, and it’s clear you relied on external force, so it doesn’t count," another arrival stood up and outright denied it.

Listening to these arrivals who could turn a lie into truth and vice versa, Ye Qiu clapped his hands: "In terms of shamelessness, I can’t compare to you. It was clearly his violation of rules, self-destructing, but you ignore that and instead claim I relied on external force. Such shamelessness I’ve never seen before."

"Let me tell you, even if he hadn’t broken the oath, his end would still be defeat by my hand, anyone with a bit of discernment can see that, but you argue against the result relentlessly. Fine, all of you come at once, beat all of you, and then you’ll be completely silent."

"Boy, are you insulting us? Do we all need to take you down together? You are underestimating us too much," said an arrival to preserve face.

Ye Qiu chuckled faintly, dismissing them: "You don’t want to come all at once? How about a round-robin then? Come on, one by one, I’ll knock all of you down."

Swish, swish...

Searing gazes shot over, while several Protectors spoke up: "Native, if you are so arrogant, don’t blame us for taking action."

"Heh, you’re just unwilling to accept defeat. I’ll give you a reason to act, come on, who wants to go first? I, Ye Qiu, am ready."

Ye Qiu stood before the arrivals, extending a hand, calm as an ancient well.

"Hmph, I’ll go!"

Seeing Ye Qiu so composed, the first arrival who couldn’t hold back charged out, launching a fierce attack on Ye Qiu.

The current scene fulfilled what the Turquoise Pool Saintess said before: these arrivals who could act without shame once, would do it a second time.
