81: I prefer you to die with your eyes wide open

Chapter 81: I Prefer You Die With Your Eyes Wide Open

“What happened back then is meaningless to bring up now!”

“At that time, you chose me because you had no other choice!”

“Moreover, after I became the Sect Master, I didn't treat you badly, and I fulfilled all the promises I made to you.”

“Also, if it wasn't for me being the Sect Master, could you have survived the struggles back then?”

The Huoyang Sect Leader looked at Huoyang Old Ancestor and said, “I know your lifespan is nearing its end, and you want to find some Heaven And Earth Treasure to extend your life. I never opposed this; in fact, I fully support it!”

“If you want such Heaven And Earth Treasure, you can go find it yourself, even using the Sect’s power is fine.”

“However, I personally won't help you with this!”

“Even if you are about to fall, I won't risk my own life to save you!”

As the Huoyang Sect Leader spoke, he turned and left.

He had already made up his mind not to waste time with Fang Chen, lest he exhaust himself to death.

Cowardly and cautious—these were the characteristics of the Huoyang Sect Leader.

This was something ingrained in his bones.

When facing an opponent weaker than himself, he would directly use thunderous methods to kill them.

If he encountered an unbeatable opponent, he would not hesitate to concede.

Life was more important than anything!

In the current situation, even if he joined forces with Huoyang Old Ancestor, he wouldn't have a chance of winning, so he couldn't possibly act.

It was a good thing for this old immortal to go and test the waters, so he could ascertain the depth of the opponent's strength.

If the strength was very ordinary, he would act and then get a share of the spoils.

If the opponent's strength was formidable, he would turn and leave, keeping as far away as possible.

“Such a coward!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor glanced at the Huoyang Sect Leader, exasperatedly saying.

He had never seen anyone so cowardly, so afraid of death.

He didn't know how this guy Cultivated to such a Realm.

“If I were as reckless as your direct descendant, fearless of everything, I would probably have died long ago like him.”

“My current status and strength were gained through being a coward. You don't need to scold me like this; you won't live much longer.”

“Moreover, the current situation is an Opportunity for you. Perhaps it can extend your life; it just depends on whether you have the guts to take a gamble.”

The Huoyang Sect Leader sneered.

Clearly, he was provoking the Huoyang Old Ancestor, while also telling him that this was his Opportunity.

If he chose to retreat, he might not have such an Opportunity in the future.

If he chose to advance, he might gain a great Opportunity to extend his life.

Upon hearing this, Huoyang Old Ancestor's face turned extremely ugly.

He was being lectured by this coward.

Anyone in the world could tell him off, but this coward was the only one who had no right to do so.

“You have no right to lecture me!”

“Also, don't think I don't know what you're thinking; you want this Old Ancestor to test the opponent's depth!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor said with cold eyes.

“That's right!”

“I do have that thought.”

Since they had already torn off the pretense, the Huoyang Sect Leader had nothing to hide and directly admitted it in front of him.

Anyway, Huoyang Old Ancestor couldn't do anything to him, couldn't defeat him, and the entire Sect was under his control.

It could be said that he crushed this Huoyang Old Ancestor, whose lifespan was nearing its end, in all aspects.

So, there was nothing to fear.

If Huoyang Old Ancestor were stronger than him, he wouldn't dare to speak like this.

Bullying the weak and fearing the strong had always been his way of doing things!

“Don't let me find an Opportunity. If I do, the position of Huoyang Sect Leader will be changed.”

Huoyang Old Ancestor said fiercely.

He now wished he could kill the Huoyang Sect Leader, even more strongly than killing Fang Chen!

However, some of the Huoyang Sect Leader's words just now were also facts, and he had no choice.

Thinking of this, Huoyang Old Ancestor took a deep breath and directly rushed towards Fang Chen, his powerful Aura erupting.

Facing such a powerful attack, a long sword appeared in his hand, radiating a heaven-reaching Sword Intent.

Taiyi Divine Sword!

It was a saint grade divine weapon, but Fang Chen rarely used it.

“saint grade divine weapon?!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor's pupils suddenly constricted, and he was filled with shock when facing the overwhelming Sword Intent.

“So what if it's a saint grade divine weapon?!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor roared, and a large cauldron flew out from him. Ancient runes appeared on the cauldron, divine light enveloped it, and its Aura was terrifying.

Boom!

A loud roar sounded.

Fang Chen unleashed a sword strike, colliding with Huoyang Old Ancestor's large cauldron, causing a powerful roar.

The Taiyi Divine Sword was unstoppable and swept all before it. The large cauldron shattered directly like tofu.

Pfft!

Huoyang Old Ancestor spat out a mouthful of old blood, clearly severely wounded.

However, the momentum of this sword strike did not diminish. The overwhelming Sword Intent continued to cut through, directly engulfing Huoyang Old Ancestor.

Suddenly, amidst the endless Sword Intent, a flame erupted, and Huoyang Old Ancestor directly rushed out, striking a palm towards Fang Chen.

“Too noisy!”

“I was even woken up from my sleep!”

Qin Linglong, who was sleeping, frowned and said impatiently.

The commotion outside woke her up and disturbed her sleep.

Upon hearing this, Fang Chen couldn't help but smile: “To be able to withstand one of my sword strikes, you do have some strength!”

“However, disturbing her sleep is unforgivable. So, pay the price with your life.”

As soon as his voice fell, a powerful Aura erupted from Fang Chen.

“Return to Ruins Realm third layer!”

Perceiving Fang Chen's Cultivation Realm, Huoyang Old Ancestor's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

He was only at Return to Ruins Realm third layer, yet he possessed such powerful strength.

A roar!

Fang Chen activated his Innate Dao Body, and a massive fist directly smashed out.

This punch carried the pressure of the Great Dao, without a powerful display, simply unadorned.

With just one punch, space seemed to tear apart, and Huoyang Old Ancestor's body directly exploded, with only his Divine Soul surviving.

“Coward, he is only at Return to Ruins Realm third layer! Why aren't you acting now? When are you waiting for?!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor roared anxiously towards the Huoyang Sect Leader.

He completely couldn't understand why the Huoyang Sect Leader still didn't dare to act, even though the opponent was just a Cultivator at Return to Ruins Realm third layer.

If he acted, they could definitely kill the opponent by joining forces.

“You want to die, so why do you want to drag me along?”

“Facing a Cultivator at Return to Ruins Realm third layer, you have no power to resist. What do you think I can do by joining in?”

“Besides, the opponent is so relaxed. If you want to die, then go die; don't drag me along.”

The Huoyang Sect Leader said impatiently.

Then he turned and left, his voice fading into the distance.

“Who exactly are you?!”

“Even if you want to kill me today, please let me die with understanding!”

Huoyang Old Ancestor roared in despair.

If he died at the hands of a Saint Realm Expert, he would accept it.

But to die at the hands of a Cultivator whose Cultivation Realm was inferior to his, he found it somewhat unacceptable.

The opponent was only at Return to Ruins Realm third layer, yet he could suppress a Half-Step Sage Realm expert like him.

More importantly, he still didn't know who the opponent truly was.

“To be honest, I prefer you die with your eyes wide open!”
