Feng Xinyue stood above the void, golden divine radiance scattering across the sky—fragments of the Golden Ancient Bell.
With a gentle palm, he shattered the terrifying golden ancient bell. The entire audience was shocked, even Long Chen's pupils contracted to the size of a pin.
Although Long Chen knew that Feng Xinyue was absolutely far stronger than he had imagined, he hadn't expected her to shatter that terrifying Divine Emperor's weapon with a single palm.
Blood trickled from the corner of the pavilion master's mouth, his face pale, and his eyes filled with terror. That was his life-bound divine weapon, yet it was shattered by Feng Xinyue's palm, leaving both his soul and primordial spirit severely damaged.
Feng Xinyue appeared like a goddess descending from the heavens. Her beautiful face and noble aura made people afraid to look her in the eye, as if even a single glance was an offense to her.
The Pavilion Master looked at Feng Xinyue, terror flashing in his eyes: "Divine ... "Divine ..."
His mouth moved as he uttered the word 'god' twice, but never uttered a third.
"As a Divine Emperor, holding a high position, seeing the divine weapon in Long Chen's hand and suddenly harboring greed and killing him, do you know your guilt?" Feng Xinyue looked down from above, looking down at the Pavilion Master and shouted coldly.
The pavilion master trembled all over in fright, stammering, "I... I only wanted to scare him a little because he was ruthless...
"Screw you, when you looked at me just now, your eyes nearly popped out. Clearly, you have feelings for me." Dragonbone Xie Yue sneered.
Although he was cursing, his tone was full of pride. Clearly, being greedy from this guy made Longgu Xie Yue feel very pleased—at least he had some insight.
Long Chen was already too lazy to listen to his explanation. He looked at Feng Xinyue, thinking about what the pavilion master had just mentioned with the word 'Shen'—what should be added after it? That was what he wanted to say, but no matter how Long Chen thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.
The experts from the main pavilion were all stunned. They couldn't imagine who this person really was, and how could they have frightened the Pavilion Master so much?
"Cruel? You only saw Long Chen kill with his blade, but you never saw a kind of knife that kills without bloodshed."
Feng Xinyue said coldly, "You, the Pavilion Master, command so many young disciples, yet you haven't shown them the right path.
With their current state entering the Tianmai Profound Realm, ninety-nine percent of them won't even think about coming back alive."
Feng Xinyue's words shocked all the prodigies present. Fortunately, it was Feng Xinyue who said it; if it had been someone else, they would surely have mocked her.
Looking at Feng Xinyue, these proud and unyielding prodigies felt awe from the depths of their souls. Her words were imperial decrees, iron laws, and they were not allowed to question them.
Long Chen was stunned at first, then suddenly understood. He finally understood why Feng Xinyue had hidden and let him handle reception.
Feng Xinyue continued, "We've eaten too much Taiping rice, for too long. Even our ability to sense danger has deteriorated.
You can't even sense a person's strength or whether they pose a deadly threat. Entering the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm is like a blind man riding a blind horse, standing by a deep pool at midnight.
Long Chen's ruthless actions can only shock you, but cannot awaken your fear.
You are hopelessly foolish. Do you really think Long Chen won't do anything to you at the Wind God Sea Pavilion? Even if he is a member of the Wind God Sea Pavilion, wouldn't he pose a deadly threat to you?
In the midst of danger, yet unaware that from top to bottom, you are all a bunch of fools."
Feng Xinyue's face turned ashen as she looked at the Pavilion Master: "As the commander, you personally sent these disciples into danger—a crime worthy of death."
"Buzz!"
Feng Xinyue waved her jade hand, but without using any power, the Pavilion Master's body involuntarily floated into the air.
The Pavilion Master was terrified. He tried to struggle but couldn't move. He wanted to beg for mercy but found he couldn't speak.
"Pfft!"
Feng Xinyue clenched her jade hand, and the pavilion master's body exploded with a thunderous roar. The blood of the Divine Emperor spilled across the earth, covering the entire plaza.
Crimson blood scattered across the land, and everyone could smell the terrifying stench of blood in their noses.
Within that bloody aura was endless fear. At that moment, every powerful figure felt their souls tremble and their souls tingle.
"Did you feel it? The scent of death."
Feng Xinyue said coldly.
The strong figures present had eyes filled with fear. Through the Pavilion Master's Divine Emperor blood, they felt the despair and unwillingness at the moment of death.
That feeling was as if they had died once before; that immersive experience awakened their fear of death.
"Originally, I wanted to use Long Chen's hand to awaken your reverence for life with the blood and lives of those foolish disciples.
But I didn't expect you to be utterly foolish. The deaths of your companions can no longer awaken your foolish senses. So let your Pavilion Master's life be used to enlighten you!" Feng Xinyue said,
"Previously, you said that when you enter the Celestial Vein Profound Realm, at least about fifty percent of people die inside.
But I can tell you, with your arrogance and stupidity, ninety-nine percent of people won't even think about coming out alive. It's really possible for the whole army to be wiped out."
Listening to Feng Xinyue's words, Tang Wan'er finally understood her intentions. At that moment, she felt deeply ashamed and guilty.
She felt too foolish, not even one percent of Long Chen's, and couldn't understand Feng Xinyue's intentions at all.
Feng Xinyue intended to wash away their arrogance and ignorance with her blood; only then could more people survive.
As for those who were killed, for Feng Xinyue, even if they didn't die at Long Chen's hands, they would die within the Tianmai Profound Realm. Dying here would be a worthy death.
Looking at the fear in the eyes of the main pavilion experts on the plaza, it was clear that Feng Xinyue's goal had been achieved.
Awakening their fear and stirring their sense of reverence, they would have more opportunities within the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm.
"The Heavenly Vein Profound Realm is extremely cruel. If you want to survive, you must unite, rely on and support each other.
The reason I killed your Pavilion Master was because he was too foolish. At a time like this, he still hasn't chosen a commander among you.
By then, once you enter the Tianmai Profound Domain, you'll be a scattered mess. Not to mention those powerful ancient inheritances—even some small factions could devour you completely.
His foolishness is like a blade that kills without shedding blood, and it will ruin all your lives within the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm."
Feng Xinyue paused and said, "I know many of you here are arrogant, so I'll give you a chance. Whoever thinks they're strong enough, wise and brave, step forward to lead the Wind God Sea Pavilion!"
"Whew" < b1102>
However, what no one expected was that after Feng Xinyue finished speaking, her figure flickered and vanished. The strong players in the arena looked at each other, dumbfounded.
"Is that it?"
Long Chen was stunned too. He thought Feng Xinyue had finally stepped up to take charge, but he hadn't expected her to give up.
"Long Chen, what should we do?" Tang Wan'er asked.
"Let's go, let's quit too." Seeing this, Long Chen waved his hand and was about to lead everyone away. Who doesn't know how to slack off?
However, just as Long Chen was about to leave, he was surrounded by a group of people.
