Divine King of Honour-Chapter 314 Invisible Slap in the Face
Xu Nian's words naturally caused everyone to be stunned.
"Sure to die? On what basis do you say the path I've chosen leads to certain death?" Xu Tong asked as he looked toward Xu Nian.
He had chosen this path after much deliberation, and even the Elder had agreed with his viewpoint.
Now Xu Nian was actually claiming the path he had chosen was bound to be fatal?
He, of course, felt indignant at heart.
The other members of the Xu family also turned their gazes towards Xu Nian, clearly having doubts about his statement.
"Lin Long, did you discover something?"
Xu Xin had seen Xu Nian's methods before, so she knew he was not the type to speak without basis.
"No, it's just a feeling. This passage is extremely dangerous, far more dangerous than any of the other paths," Xu Nian said, shaking his head in response.
"A feeling?" Xu Tong couldn't help but sneer.
The other members of the Xu family also showed mocking expressions.
Xu Fenn even disdainfully said, "If you think the path we've chosen is very dangerous, then you don't have to follow us. Go on your safe path by yourself."
In their eyes, Xu Nian and Chen Wudi would never be able to reach the depths of Death Valley on their own.
Following them was merely taking advantage of their kindness.
And now he even had the audacity to question their decision; it was simply an inch given and a mile taken.
Xu Xin's eyebrows also furrowed slightly, obviously not expecting Xu Nian to make such a remark.
However, she still asked, "Then which path do you think is safe?"
"The third one on the right!" Xu Nian pointed without hesitation to the third path on the right.
All eyes turned towards the third path on the right.
That path was somewhat dark, and a chilling, sinister aura emanated from within.
It gave off a feeling that would make anyone's heart turn cold at a glance.
No ordinary person would choose such a path.
"You're not kidding, are you? That path is the truly dangerous one. I think you want to drag us down with you in a joint burial," Xu Fenn said with a fierce look in his eyes.
Xu Tong also had a cold, mocking laugh, clearly sharing Xu Fenn's opinion.
As for Xu Long and the Elder, they furrowed their brows slightly, showing a pensive expression.
Xu Xin's brows were also tightly knit.
To be honest, she really didn't favor the path Xu Nian had chosen.
At a glance, it looked extremely dangerous.
It even seemed to be the most terrifying of the nine paths.
But Xu Nian's firm tone and eyes couldn't help but make her doubt.
Xu Nian didn't speak. Of course, he hadn't identified this path based solely on his feelings.
Black Wind had been quietly trailing behind Xu Nian, acting like an ordinary black dog.
But its sense of smell was extremely keen.
It told Xu Nian right away that the ninth path was very dangerous.
And the third path was the safest.
Of course, the real reason that Xu Nian was so certain of Black Wind's judgment being correct was that
just a moment ago, he had received a message from a person's Spiritual Sense.
And the owner of this Spiritual Sense told him to take the third path.
Although Xu Nian was somewhat surprised as to why this owner of the Spiritual Sense was so certain,
he still chose to trust her.
"Hmph, boy, if you feel that the third path is safe for you, then go on your third path and don't hinder us," Xu Tong said coldly.
"Yeah, if it weren't for the fact that you once saved Sister Xin, you wouldn't even have the right to follow us," Xu Fenn said scornfully.
"Shut up!" Xu Xin immediately admonished.
Xu Fenn shut his mouth, but his eyes were still filled with disdain as he looked at Xu Nian.
The young man named Xu Long subconsciously furrowed his brows, clearly dissatisfied with Xu Xin's defense of Xu Nian.
"Sister Xin, I think we should listen to Brother Xu Tong," Xu Long spoke, now standing on Xu Tong's side. "Even though this kid saved you, he himself admitted it was just a feeling and didn't have any solid evidence."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xin hesitated and turned her head to look at Xu Nian.
"Sister Xu Xin, you have to believe me, we absolutely must not take the ninth passage. If you insist on going, I would rather die than let you," Xu Nian said with a resolute look in his eyes.
Xu Xin was shaken.
She hadn't expected Xu Nian to make such a statement.
Would he truly die to stop her?
How important was she to him really?
"Kid, that's enough. Even if you saved Sister Xin, so what? I'm giving you this moment to disappear from my sight, or I won't be polite," Xu Tong said with a cold snort, anger rising in his eyes.
This kid in front of him was seriously irritating him.
If it weren't for Xu Xin being there, he would have killed him already.
Why would he waste his breath talking?
"Scram, kid!" Xu Fenn also said arrogantly.
He too found Xu Nian very annoying.
This young man, upon learning they were from the Xu family, not only did not show a speck of respect but even seemed to have a bit of disdain.
This deeply wounded his pride, making him dislike the two young men before him even more.
However, Xu Nian ignored their words and turned to Xu Xin, asking, "Are you willing to believe me?"
In fact, if it weren't for Xu Xin, he wouldn't bother arguing so much.
What did he care about these people's lives or deaths? It was only Xu Xin he truly cared about.

He spoke so much only because he didn't want to see Xu Xin caught in the middle and distressed.
"Okay, I will follow you on the third path," Xu Xin said after a moment's hesitation.
Somehow, a voice inside her was telling her to trust him.
She didn't know where this voice came from, it felt like it originated from deep within her bloodline.
Upon hearing her words, a smile appeared on Xu Nian's face.
"Sister Xin, are you crazy?" Xu Tong and others were shocked.
They hadn't expected Xu Xin to actually decide to trust Xu Nian.
Xu Long's brows knitted tightly together, and his eyes filled with killing intent as he looked at Xu Nian.
That's right; he saw Xu Nian as a rival in love.

"Kid, I won't let Sister Xin go with you. I'm giving you a moment to disappear, or you won't have a chance to live," Xu Long said with a cold expression.
Hearing this, Xu Tong and Xu Fenn both smiled, clearly knowing that Xu Long was jealous, and looked forward to watching the drama unfold.
"Xu Long, what do you think you're doing?" Xu Xin immediately shouted at Xu Long.
"Sister Xin, stay out of this," said Xu Long, as he pushed Xu Xin away with a gentle force.
Then he prepared to attack Xu Nian.
Xu Nian's eyes also turned sharp, ready to fight.
"Stop!"
However, at that moment, a figure swept in like a breeze, landing between the two men.
"Elder?"
Xu Long was startled, not expecting Elder Xu Tian to intervene.
Xu Fenn and Xu Tong were also taken aback, their faces showing surprise.
Xu Nian's brows furrowed slightly, his expression also revealing a hint of surprise.
"Stop it. What he said is right. I just used two spiritual rats to test it; the one that entered the ninth passage died, while the one that took the third passage passed through completely unharmed. So, he's telling the truth," Elder Xu Tian spoke up.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Long and the others were suddenly stunned.
As for Xu Tong and Xu Fenn, they felt the sting on their faces as if they had been harshly slapped.
