402: Chapter 402 Annihilating Yan Qing and Yan Zhen! Elder Jin, there's no need to trouble you this time!

The Ice Phoenix descended from the heavens, its wings like blades wrapped in frost. As it swept past, it froze everything for ten thousand miles, severing the bodies of the two Vermilion Birds at the waist.

"Twin Souls: Dragon's Might of Wind and Thunder!"

Yan Zhen and Yan Qing's eyelids twitched wildly as they felt the threat of death at this very moment.

They pushed their Divine Bodies to the limit, drawing two ten-thousand-zhang-long Azure Dragons in the Void Realm.

The Azure Dragons soared into the sky, their bodies vanishing into the clouds. The momentum of wind and thunder instantly filled the entire world, striking awe into all who saw it!

"Nine Lotuses Bloom, Heavenly Phoenix Descends!"

Yu Xin fully activated her Bloodline. Nine crimson fire lotuses blossomed, and nine Fire Phoenixes flew out from within the lotuses, charging straight into the clouds.

They held red suns in their beaks, their eyes were like brilliant stars, and as they flapped their wings, cinnabar fire splashed everywhere.

The Azure Dragons drawn by Yan Zhen and Yan Qing had no power to resist before the ultimate moves of Saintess Yu Luo and Yu Xin; they were like useless techniques!

"Elder, save me!!"

Yan Qing's expression was panicked, and he even collapsed to the ground in terror. The threat of death enveloped him from head to toe, and his entire body shook like a sieve.

Jin Yanyu wanted to save them, but he also knew he could not break the rules.

Moreover, General Li Bufan was watching like a hawk from the side. He could guarantee that if he dared to make the slightest move, he would likely die even faster than Yan Zhen and Yan Qing!

Ultimately, he and the remaining Sons of Xiancha could only watch helplessly as Yan Zhen and Yan Qing were submerged in that boundless sea of fire. Even their Divine Souls and Primordial Spirits were burned to ashes, their Reincarnation severed.

Saintess Yu Luo and Yu Xin didn't even spare a glance at the ashes on the ground, walking straight back behind Lin Ran.

In contrast to the gloomy faces of Jin Yanyu and the others, a faint smile hung on the corner of Lin Ran's mouth as he said nonchalantly:

"Elder Jin, according to the bet, our side gets to go to your Golden Ancient Loulan and pick out two treasures!"

Jin Yanyu's body jolted, his heart aching as if it were dripping blood.

It was fine that Qing Mixian had died; after all, Qing Mixian was only a bottom-ranked existence among the Seven Sons of Xiancha.

But Yan Zhen and Yan Qing were different!

Among the Seven Sons of Xiancha, these two were top-tier, famous figures, second only to the leader of the Seven Sons of Xiancha!

The defeat and death of Yan Zhen and Yan Qing was a truly significant blow to them!

This was more than just a flesh wound; it was a crippling strike!

"We will naturally not go back on what was agreed upon beforehand!"

Jin Yanyu said with an incredibly ugly expression.

As luck would have it, Lin Ran added another blow with a mischievous grin:

"Elder Jin, we are already quite familiar with the way to your Golden Ancient Loulan. There's no need to trouble you to lead us there this time."

"You and the remaining Sons of Xiancha can just wait here for us to return and start the third life-and-death battle!"

With that, Lin Ran laughed loudly and led the group away. His laughter was so arrogant that he even choked on some phlegm.

Listening to Lin Ran's receding laughter, Jin Yanyu was so angry that his Qi surged wildly within his body. He wished he could shatter the horizon with a single punch and tear Lin Ran into ten thousand pieces!

What is the ultimate humiliation?!

Stabbing a corpse once isn't enough; you have to press it into the ground and rub it repeatedly—that is the ultimate humiliation!!

Arriving before the Sand Bandits' Golden Ancient Loulan, Lin Ran stepped inside first and said casually in a voice loud enough for everyone present to hear:

"Yu Luo, Yu Xin, you two have achieved great merit this time by slaying Yan Zhen and Yan Qing in the life-and-death battle."

"As for picking the treasures this time, you two can choose for yourselves. Take whatever catches your eye!"

The Sand Bandit Elders sitting inside the Golden Ancient Loulan were startled, their faces filled with disbelief.

How much time had even passed?

Another life-and-death battle was already over?!

And from Lin Ran's words, was it a four-person melee?

They had actually lost again?!

And the ones who died this time were Yan Zhen and Yan Qing?!

This was simply impossible for them to believe!

Yan Zhen and Yan Qing were absolute prodigies among the Seven Sons of Xiancha, and both were at the Heavenly Palace Realm.

Combined with their twin Divine Souls, their coordination was seamless.

Just what kind of Prodigy did the Zifu Holy Land send to be able to kill both Yan Zhen and Yan Qing at the same time?!

But soon, Jin Yanyu sent word back.

And this news made the faces of all the Sand Bandit Elders turn dark.

Simply because...

According to Jin Yanyu's transmission, everything Lin Ran said was true!

Yan Zhen and Yan Qing had indeed died in this life-and-death battle!

Even more fatally, Lin Ran's side was going to take away two supreme treasures stored in the Golden Ancient Loulan!

While the Sand Bandit Elders were still shocked and startled, before they could regain their senses, Saintess Yu Luo and Yu Xin had already picked out two supreme treasures.

What Saintess Yu Luo picked was an Ice Lotus with the aura of ice flames brewing within its bud.

What Yu Xin picked was a True Phoenix Feather, engraved with ancient and profound runes, its entire body surging with thick flames.

Ever since Ming Chuan picked a treasure in the Golden Ancient Loulan, the two of them had been coveting these two treasures for a long time.

These two treasures were both very compatible with their Bloodlines and auras, and could maximize their strength!

"Retreat!"

The treasures had been selected, and Lin Ran swaggered out of the Golden Ancient Loulan with the group right under the noses of the Sand Bandit Elders.

"This... this is simply absurd!! What do they take our Holy Land for? A charity where they can just take treasures at will!?"

The Fifth Elder was so angry that his whole body trembled, even his white beard shaking along with him.

"Truly damned! Just wait until the Chief returns, let's see how arrogant they can be then!!"

"Alas, our skills are inferior, what can we do? Compared to the young prodigies of the Zifu Holy Land, our Sand Bandit young prodigies are indeed lacking more than just a little!"

"Hmph! Is that your excuse for destroying our own prestige and boosting theirs? If Luo Hou hadn't left with the Chief to train abroad and remained unheard from, how could we allow this group to be so arrogant?!"

Seeing the Elders arguing incessantly, First Elder Cui Fanchan only felt a massive headache and growled:

"Enough! Stop arguing! What time is it now, do you think things aren't chaotic enough?!"

"Send a message to Jin Yanyu. Tell him that this next life-and-death battle must be won back no matter what!"

"Yes!"

...

On the other side.

Lin Ran soon led the group back to their own Golden Ancient Loulan with great pleasure.

He slightly raised his eyes, looked at Jin Yanyu who looked like he wanted to tear him apart, and smiled: "Elder Jin, why is your expression so stiff?"

"Although quite a few of your young prodigies died, didn't you also lose quite a few supreme treasures?"

"As the saying goes, when you have too many lice, you stop itching. What do you have to worry about?"

Hearing this, Jin Yanyu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood and died on the spot.

So, because it wasn't Lin Ran's young prodigies dying and it wasn't Lin Ran's supreme treasures being lost, Lin Ran dared to talk so light-heartedly while standing on the sidelines!?

He really wanted to personally check what kind of poison was smeared on Lin Ran's lips that his words could be so heart-piercing!
