Chapter 2577
Chapter 2577
The gate Zi Chen was blocking was the place where he and Lei Ming had stopped to check their credentials when they first met their master, Wuji.
However, the guards from back then had long since disappeared, and the place was now occupied by false gods.
Still, they stood within the gate, terrified, not daring to take a single step out.
This was because all the existences who'd tried to come out had died to his stone knife.
He stood with his knife in hand, staring coldly in front of him.
When the false gods met the soulfire in his eye sockets, fear appeared on their faces, and they no longer dared to rashly approach.
While blocking the gate, Zi Chen continued to refine the false god crystal.
Perhaps a series of battles would break out soon, so he had to ensure that the energy was supplied in time.
Fortunately, he'd killed quite a few false gods and obtained quite a few false god crystals, enough to sustain a large-scale battle.
Many cultivators came from afar. They'd all heard the commotion and came to watch the battle.
When they saw so many dead false gods, they were shocked and horrified.
Now that things had developed like this, it was clear that the gods would fight to the death with this skeleton. They didn't believe that a mere skeleton who couldn't even fly would be able to fight against the gods in the divine city.
The false gods' goal was to make a big deal out of this, the bigger the better. It'd be best if the situation couldn't be resolved.
As a result, the false gods, who were too scared to go out, stood at the gate and shouted loudly.
For example, someone had disregarded the rules of the gods, challenged their dignity, and so on.
In short, their voices were very loud.
Their voices quickly spread throughout the divine city.
When they heard this, Yan Wei and Cena exchanged a glance and laughed.
This was the result they'd wanted.
At the same time, they wanted to see how Yi Qian would deal with this.
When Shi Lian heard this, she couldn't help but stomp her foot and say unhappily, "This skeleton, can't you see that this is their scheme?
Even if you're captured and thrown into the divine prison, the Divine Lady can get you out.
But now that you've made such a big deal out of this, even the Divine Lady can't save you! "
Not resisting and being thrown into the divine prison, then having Yi Qian bail him out, was indeed a solution.
However, this wasn't the method Zi Chen wanted.
Yan Wei thought that he understood Yi Qian very well, but how could he not understand Yan Wei?
Just like when they were on the life star, if you didn't push him to a dead end, he would always play tricks in the dark.
But as long as you force him into a dead end and beat him until he has nowhere to hide, then he can only run.
Holding the stone dagger in his hand, he stood outside the gate of the city and coldly stared at these fake gods, who were yelling and shouting as if they wanted the whole world to be in chaos.
Now that he was guarding the door, as long as they dared to come out, he would kill without mercy!
However, if the other party continued to shout from inside, even he couldn't do anything about it.
He could kill people, but that was only within the Divine Cities. It did not include the cities within the city ahead.
Not to mention him, even the powerful Craftsman Ancestor had fallen for Wavering's trick and didn't dare to start a massacre inside.
"Shut up!
All of you are making a ruckus here. What a scandal! "
At that moment, a majestic voice was heard, and a God Clan member shrouded in divine light appeared.
When the fake gods heard the voice, they immediately turned around and bowed to the God Clan member. "Greetings, Sir Messenger. It is this person who started a massacre here, ignoring the rules of the God Clan!"
The crowd parted, and the God Clan member walked forward. He glanced at Zi Chen, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Zi Chen also looked at the other party and recognized him.
He was the God Clan member who had sat next to Yi Qian, so he should be one of Yi Qian's people.
The God Clan member only glanced at Zi Chen, then his gaze fell on the fake god. He looked at the bowing fake god and said, "You are Ao Li, right?"
"Ao Li greets Sir Toby!" The fake god cupped his fists and bowed again.
"You still know that I am Sir?
Why didn't you listen to the orders of the Goddess and me? "God Clan Messenger Toby asked indifferently.
Ao Li turned his head and looked at the skeletons outside. He gritted his teeth and said, "This person violated the rules of the God Clan and trampled on our dignity. How can we just sit and wait for death?
We must fight to protect the dignity of the God Clan. We must not let anyone trample on our dignity, even if it means death! "
When he said that, the expressions of the other fake gods who had survived also became solemn and resolute.
"So that's how it is," Toby said indifferently.
"It's rare for you to be so considerate. I believe that neither the Goddess nor I will treat you unfairly."
"I don't dare, I just …" Ao Li's face showed a touch of joy.
Toby interrupted him and said indifferently, "What do you not dare to do?
Since you speak so righteously, now is the time for you to reclaim the dignity of the God Clan. "
"Ah?" Ao Li was stunned.
Toby said, "Didn't you swear to protect the dignity of the God Clan with your life?
Is your so-called vow to protect the dignity of the God Clan by shouting here?
If you don't dare to fight directly, are you protecting the dignity of the God Clan or discrediting the dignity of the God Clan?! "
Ao Li's expression changed, but he didn't dare to say anything.
He had seen Skeleton's combat strength with his own eyes. If he went out now, he would be throwing his life away. How could he dare to go out?
Toby turned his head and looked at the others. "You ignored the Goddess's orders and insisted on reclaiming the dignity of the God Clan, but I see you standing here shouting without caring about your image, affecting the reputation of the God Clan.
Is this disobeying orders and swearing to protect the dignity of the God Clan?
Now, I suspect that you have ulterior motives! "
The faces of the fake gods changed dramatically, and fear appeared on their faces.
Toby said coldly, "If you don't have ulterior motives, then it proves your sincerity."
Meeting Toby's cold and stern gaze, Ao Li's eyes showed a touch of fear.
At this moment, he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off.
"What, you can't prove it?
Then it seems that you really do have ulterior motives. Tell me, who ordered you to discredit the dignity of the God Clan? "
Toby questioned coldly.
He did not suppress his voice at all, and it spread out in all directions.
Zi Chen remained silent as he listened to the conversation.
This was Yi Qian's support for him.
And when the people farther away heard this, their expressions became interesting.
Knowing how powerful Skeleton was, who would dare to charge forward?
This kind of display of loyalty was an act of suicide.
Obviously, no one was foolish enough to throw their lives away.
"There are many ways to show one's sincerity, but I believe that one of them is definitely not throwing one's life away."
Just as Ao Li and the others were at a loss, a faint voice sounded.
Another God Clan member walked out.
Seeing this God Clan member walk out, the eyes of Ao Li and the others immediately lit up as if they had seen their savior. They all came over and stood behind the God Clan member.
"I was wondering why they were so bold to disobey the Goddess's orders.
It turns out that it was you, Bolton, who supported them, "Toby said coldly.
Bolton stepped forward and looked at Toby. "Toby, you can't speak carelessly. The person I respect the most is the Goddess. How could I disobey her orders?
I have nothing to do with them. I just heard that someone disobeyed the rules of the God Clan, so I rushed over.
But I didn't expect to see you forcing them to commit suicide to show your sincerity. "
"Committing suicide to show your sincerity?
What do you mean? "
"You knew that Skeleton was very powerful, but you still sent them to their deaths. Isn't this a way of showing your sincerity by committing suicide?
Or are you sending them to their deaths to show your sincerity? "
Toby smiled faintly and said, "The Goddess has ordered that she will deal with this matter personally.
But these people disobeyed her orders and came out. I thought they had some kind of extraordinary means. "
Ao Li and the others had ugly expressions, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Since the Bolton God Clan was here, there was nothing for them to do.
"Is that so?
If that's the case … "
Before Bolton could finish his words, he was interrupted by a hoarse voice.
"I say, you blabbermouth. Did you come here to spout nonsense or to fight?
If you're talking nonsense, please don't block the way.
If you're going to fight, please come out. "
Of course, the one who spoke was Zi Chen. The conversation between Toby and Bolton was like pestering endlessly and would never end.
Instead of having a war of words, it was better to end it all with a fight.
Bolton turned around and looked at Zi Chen. He said indifferently, "How dare you!"
Zi Chen said calmly, "Come out and say that."
Bolton's expression changed. He didn't dare to go out like that.
He looked back at Toby and said, "Toby, this Skeleton is too arrogant. He completely disregards the dignity of the God Clan. You and I will attack together and kill him!"
Toby shook his head lightly.
Bolton said with a cold expression, "What? Are you going to cover for him?"
Toby said, "The Goddess has her own plans for this matter.
I'll listen to the Goddess, so I won't do anything. "
"You …" Bolton was furious.
Toby said again, "I'll say it again. Whoever dares to act rashly is disobeying the Goddess' order!"
Bolton's expression changed several times. Then, he said with a cold face, "If disobeying orders is disobeying the Goddess' order, then I will disobey the Goddess' order.
Today, for the sake of the God Clan's dignity, I will disobey the Goddess' order. "
He turned around and stared at Skeleton. "Skeleton, you must die today!
No one can look down on the dignity of the God Clan! "
Zi Chen said, "Before you say anything, please walk out of there first."
Bolton's expression became more and more unsightly. However, at this moment, the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring. He roared and rushed out of the door, rushing toward Zi Chen.
The stone saber in Zi Chen's hand lit up with a bright light, and a suffocating aura appeared.
The stone saber instantly swept forward, and a flash of saber light shot toward Oracle Bolton.
"Pfft!"
The saber light swept past, and God blood splattered. A severed arm flew high into the sky.
Bolton, who had just rushed forward, had already returned to the door.
He had lost an arm in the instant of the exchange.
And this was because he had shown his decisive side in an instant. Otherwise, the loss would have been even greater.
Those False Gods who were lucky enough to survive were shocked when they saw this scene. They did not expect the Skeleton's combat strength to be so terrifying.
Even Oracle Toby's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
"The enemy has invaded. Is there any God Clan member who will defend the dignity of the God Clan with me, Bolton?"
