Chapter 1792 - Kill Me If You Dare

The expressions of those five people changed slightly when they heard her words.

Their Kingdoms each had the characteristics of their own. They were almost unique in nature.

Even if Xing Ling'er had never fought against the five of them, nor had she seen the Kingdoms of those five people before, including the veterans who had retired, there were not that many heavenly dao-level powerhouses in the Eastern Eight Zone. Even if she did not know some personally, she had definitely heard of them.

Judging by the characteristics of the five people's Kingdoms now, she guessed their real identities almost instantly.

"Two of you are even the seniors my father used to respect…" Xing Ling'er looked at swollen-face and the archer who was wearing a mask with a child's face. "You guys betrayed the universe and become slaves of an Abyssal creature. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?!"

The two people looked away from Xing Ling'er slightly.

"Xing Ling'er, we choose our own destinies and where we stand. You have your own too. Nobody is superior or inferior to another," the man in an inexperienced youth's mask explained when he saw their reaction.

"Stop wasting your breath on her." The fox-face stopped the two's argument directly, "Get it over quickly."

As soon as he said that, the five of them accelerated the expansion of their Kingdoms.

Xing Ling'er's Kingdom began to collapse quickly. She did not even manage to attack. She could only maintain the activation of her Kingdom by force.

This collapse was not referring to calling the descended Kingdom back into her body, but rather that her Kingdom was collapsing substantially.

No matter what, it was impossible for five Kingdoms to expand at the same time within a Kingdom of the same level. Meanwhile, Xing Ling'er was holding on and doing her best not to recall her Kingdom just to buy more time for Guan Yi.

It was a definite fact that her Kingdom would collapse.

As Xing Ling'er's Kingdom collapsed, her aura started fading away rapidly. Even her combat strength had signs of faltering.

A Kingdom was the cultivation foundation of powerhouses at lord-level and above lord-level. Having one's Kingdom collapse meant that their cultivation foundation was damaged, so it was normal for their combat strength to drop in tandem.

Of course, Xing Ling'er was aware of this. However, she already had the determination to sacrifice herself when she saw Zhao Ji and Wan Peng die one after the other. Naturally, she did not care whether her Kingdom collapsed and whether her combat strength fell.

At that moment, she only had one thought, which was to trap the five of them for as long as possible so that Guan Yi could run away as far as he could.

Nevertheless, she only lasted for less than a minute even though she kept her Kingdom activated with all of her might. It collapsed completely in the end as the five Kingdoms descended and expanded.

The moment Xing Ling'er's Kingdom collapsed, and when she returned to the universe, her facial expression changed drastically.

The reason being was that she sensed Guan Yi's aura had remained where it was. He had not made use of the time she bought him to run at all.

At that moment, a voice echoed casually.

"Do you know why we're not in a hurry to attack you in your Kingdom, but merely expanded our Kingdoms to make yours collapse?"

It was the man in the inexperienced youth's mask who spoke. "Because we're not worried about Guan Yi running away at all."

Xing Ling'er realized something instantly when she heard those words. Her face turned pale suddenly.

At that moment, a sigh came from the collapsed Stargazing Pavilion.

A figure walked out of the ruins. It was Guan Yi.

However, he did not look like he was badly injured at all.

"Must you guys expose my identity before her?" Guan Yi furrowed his brows slightly.

"Isn't this more interesting?" The guy who was wearing the fiend mask said and chuckled softly.

"Guan Yi… You're really a spy from the Black Abyss?!" Xing Ling'er remained in disbelief.

Seeing that Guan Yi did not answer that question right away, the fiend-face continued to speak while smiling, "Not only is he the Black Abyss' spy, he's one of the seven people who founded the Black Abyss."

"Otherwise, how would we know the exact time you guys chose to activate the Great Void Mirror this time? We managed to pull off this ambush when the three Star Masters were weakened because your Senior Brother Guan tipped us off secretly."

"Oh yeah, to prevent Zhao Ji from finding out if there were moles in Star Cluster, he even specially donned a treasure a few days ago."

"Guan Yi, I want you to answer the question!" Xing Ling'er had fury fill her face. Although she knew what that man said should be the truth, she was still unwilling. She wanted to hear the answer from Guan Yi himself.

"I'm sorry, I have my reasons." Guan Yi hesitated for a moment before admitting to it anyway.

"I'll kill you!" Xing Ling'er became frantic when she heard the answer.

She did not even care that she was badly injured from her Kingdom collapsing, and also ignored the fact that her combat strength had dropped as she wielded the long saber in her hand.

Countless green saber gleams attacked Guan Yi.

Guan Yi merely dodged instead of fighting back.

"Do you think that you're a good person just because you're not fighting back? You have the guts to turn traitor, but you don't dare to kill me?!" Xing Ling'er shrieked while attacking insanely without proper form or techniques.

"Kill me if you dare!" Xing Ling'er's curses were getting more animated, "You traitor! My dad shouldn't have adopted you back then! Ingrate, animal…"

Though that was the case, Guan Yi did not fight back anyway, nor did he argue back. He merely said to the remaining five people, "I don't want to attack her. You guys do it."

Some of them were enjoying the show, while some were just watching out of curiosity.

Seeing that the four others did nothing, fox-face scoffed. "Since you guys won't do it, allow me!"

He performed several hand seals with both hands rapidly as soon as he was done speaking. A couple of black chains shot forth at Xing Ling'er at high speed. 

Xing Ling'er, who was already nearly out of her mind, did not manage to react at all, and the chains wrapped around her arms and body.

Very soon, a strange thing occurred.

Her God's soul was dragged out by the chains forcefully. It was pulling it toward the gigantic shadow above fox-face uncontrollably.

Guan Yi's expression changed slightly when he saw the shadow.

Merely a moment later, Xing Ling'er's God's soul was pulled toward the shadow. A hand grabbed onto it.

She struggled hard, but it was futile.

Guan Yi closed his eyes quietly as he observed up to this point. He no longer wanted to watch.

However, the remaining people were watching in glee.

After Xing Ling'er's God's soul was grabbed, the shadow shoved it into its mouth directly and began munching on it.

At first, Xing Ling'er's God's soul screamed in pain and devastation. However, after a few munches, only silence remained.

After swallowing Xing Ling'er, the shadow faded away quickly. It turned into black mist and penetrated fox-face's body.

Only then did Guan Yi finally open his eyes.

He glanced at Xing Ling'er's body, which was on the ground, and then turned his head to glance at Zhao Ji and Wan Peng's bodies which were not far away. His face soon turned cold again.

He stretched out his hand and put on a red devil's mask. A cold voice came from beneath the mask, "Let's go."
