Chapter 2562 - 2563: Accepting the Request

Chapter 2562: Chapter 2563: Accepting the Request

The Azure Dragon Sect is the top power on the Tianyuan Continent, typically not interfering with other families’ affairs. Once the Azure Dragon Sect gets involved, it will disrupt the existing rules.

However, the Azure Dragon Sect has long fallen from grace, unlike before. The Dark Clan is waiting for the opportunity, eyeing them fiercely, and soon they plan to launch a large-scale attack against them.

The only hope now is to find the Saintess who has been sought for years. But the other party chose to stubbornly insist on her own views, unwilling to cooperate, which is still a regrettable matter even now upon careful reflection.

Fortunately, she has already agreed to our conditions this time; we cannot afford to miss this chance, or the Azure Dragon Gang may never rise again.

"I can agree to your request." After thinking for a long time, he decided to agree to the opinion put forward by Xiao Ying.

Over at Zhou Lie’s side.

Zhou Lie still possesses considerable power now. He’s determined to retaliate against his opponent with all his strength.

After all the humiliation Lin Chen gave him, it remains vividly in his memory to this day. He cannot forget that his skills have already reached the utmost level, and Lin Chen must fall under his feet.

Lin Chen is not yet aware that someone has been secretly lying in wait, ready to act against him at any moment. Even if he knew, he would not be afraid.

Lin Chen is still confined in the cold, dark cell, his entire body experiencing intense pain. He clearly remembers his previous conversation with Nangong Xue.

As long as he agrees to Nangong Xue’s request now, she is willing to abandon everything in her family and elope with him, but unfortunately, he cannot go against his own heart.

He never thought his life would end in such a casual way.

Lin Chen was pushed by people from the Nangong family to the cliff edge at dawn the next day.

All the Nangong family members stood aside, watching the young man before them without any emotional fluctuations.

Because in many people’s eyes, Lin Chen’s fate today is entirely self-inflicted. If he hadn’t committed heinous acts, their Nangong family wouldn’t have been so ruthless and brutal.

Lin Chen was tied to a post, looking down at the bottomless abyss, but feeling no great panic in his heart, rather a hint of anticipation.

This all stems from what Nangong Xue said to him previously.

The legendary gem resides deep within the abyss and can react with a supreme life form, and it just so happens that he is the one they are looking for.

Who knows, perhaps he might actually encounter the legendary item, and if so, he could turn misfortune into fortune, wouldn’t that be wonderful?

"How about now? What are your thoughts?" Little Overlord is immensely proud, as his romantic rival is finally going to be annihilated and fall here, which makes him ecstatic.

Little Overlord never put Lin Chen in his sights; from the first glance, he knew this boy would soon die by his hand.

No one is exempt.

"No thoughts."

Although he reached his goal, why does he still not feel any joy? It might be because he never saw the fear and terror he hoped for in Lin Chen’s eyes.

At that moment, the elder stepped forward, pulling out a cloth from his hand, which had Lin Chen’s sentence written on it.

"This person has committed evil deeds, killed innocents, and disrupted the rules of our Nangong family. Today, in front of everyone, we will use him to sacrifice to the gem."

After these words, many people around cheered excitedly, shouting loudly, feeling smug because Lin Chen was about to die.

Seeing such ignorant and foolish behavior from those around him, Lin Chen felt somewhat amused. They still didn’t realize the situation they found themselves in.

"Princess, it’s time to act against him." The elder standing aside looked at Nangong Xue, urging her.

The reason is simple. Although they don’t respect Nangong Xue in their family, all these formalities must be followed. Since this person broke the family rules, Nangong Xue must personally sentence Lin Chen.

Nangong Xue, holding her longsword, walked step by step towards Lin Chen. This moment her heart was unusually calm, the bygone affections from before now long gone.

"Do you have any last words?"

Although Nangong Xue’s feelings for him are already cold, she still decided to give him a chance to leave his final words, remembering how Lin Chen saved her a few times.

"You want me to tell you if I have any unfinished wishes, don’t you?" Lin Chen looked at Nangong Xue with a calm smile.

"Exactly."

Previously, whenever Nangong Xue faced Lin Chen, her eyes often showed flashes of tenderness. But now, it’s replaced by a scene of snow-like murderous intent.

Despite being considered extraordinarily beautiful by others, Nangong Xue is not so in reality. She is a remarkably selfish individual; if she cannot possess something, she will think about completely destroying it.

"Forget it, go ahead and act now." Lin Chen looked at Nangong Xue and found nothing sad about it.

After all, from the moment he entered the martial arts world, he never thought he could survive, as the world is too treacherous, which was always the case.

Nangong Xue raised her longsword high, aiming at the rope in the air, knowing that cutting this rope would cause Lin Chen to fall into the abyss.

No one can survive the gem’s engulfment; the gem itself possesses potent power, even god-level beings are not exempt.

Although Nangong Xue lifted her weapon high above her head, she hesitated to let it fall, unable to harden her heart.

"I say, Princess, aren’t you going to act? Kill him quickly."

Little Overlord is deeply angry; he didn’t expect Nangong Xue to still hesitate at this point, which indeed makes him envious.

The elder rushed forward, snatching the longsword from Nangong Xue’s hands, aiming at the rope in the air.

Nangong Xue did not resist or stop him because she knew she could not change the elder’s decision.

Moreover, she really couldn’t bring herself to do it.

Just then, a voice suddenly came through.

"Stop, I’ll see who dares to touch him today."
