The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 925: Heart Cold

Several martial artists from other continents looked at Jing Yan with eyes full of mockery.

If the Flame Land were so easy to pass through, would they be moving forward so slowly?

Young and narrow-minded, easily losing touch with reality, unaware of their own limits.

Hearing Xiao Qian’s words, Jing Yan lightly shook his head. He was certainly aware of the power of the Destruction Fire. To maintain such a large protective energy shield would indeed consume a tremendous amount of primordial energy. Even for a martial artist like himself, with combat power comparable to a One-star Void God, relying solely on the primordial energy of the Purple Mansion and the laws he could control, it wouldn’t be guaranteed.

But he had the Heavenly Repairing Pill on him.

Even if a Half-step Void God martial artist’s Purple Mansion primordial energy was more than half depleted, taking one Heavenly Repairing Pill would allow them to replenish it in a very short time.

"Jing Yan, my young friend, don’t say more." Yi Xiang gave Jing Yan a meaningful look.

He feared that if Jing Yan spoke too much, he would anger Ouyang Lin and the others. If a Half-step Void God warrior turned hostile and drove all the Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists out, it would be disastrous.

Yi Xiang also noticed that Mr. Zhong seemed to have a good relationship with Jing Yan.

But could Mr. Zhong take all more than ten martial artists from the Heavenly Origin Continent with him? Mr. Zhong might be very powerful and resourceful, but taking one person and taking more than a dozen people forward were absolutely different. Expanding the defense energy shield to cover more than a dozen people would consume primordial energy at a rate many times faster than protecting just one.

Even if Mr. Zhong was a Half-step Void God, he probably couldn’t withstand it. And among the martial artists of the Heavenly Origin Continent, there were no warriors at the Half-step Void God level.

Besides, Mr. Zhong was ultimately a Divine Clan person from the God Realm. Why would he help the natives pass through the Flame Land?

"Yi Xiang, if you delay any longer, my previous promise will be void. The next explorers will still be chosen from the Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists." Ouyang Lin’s face darkened.

He was somewhat annoyed, mainly at Jing Yan.

Just now, Jing Yan interrupted him, making him very uncomfortable. If not for Mr. Zhong’s face, he wouldn’t have held back.

"What does this mean?"

"Were the previous pathfinders all Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists?" Jing Yan’s face also turned cold.

Just now, he had no idea about this situation. He thought the martial artists from several continents were all taking turns as pathfinders.

Now, hearing Ouyang Lin’s words and seeing that there were only about a dozen Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists here, while there were around three hundred martial artists in total.

"I’ll go pathfinding now." Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Yi Xiang quickly said.

"Yi Xiang, hold it!" Jing Yan said in a low voice.

Yi Xiang was slightly stunned, looking at Jing Yan in surprise. Jing Yan’s tone had an unquestionable quality, which momentarily intimidated him.

Jing Yan’s eyes turned, looking at those Half-step Void God level martial artists. With his ability, Jing Yan could easily sense the presence of several Half-step Void God level martial artists here.

"Let me ask you!"

"Before Mr. Zhong and I arrived, had you indeed been sending only Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists to pathfind?" Jing Yan’s tone concealed deep anger.

"Boy, you’ve said it right!" Ouyang Lin finally couldn’t hold back his anger, his eyes glinting fiercely.

"The Heavenly Origin Continent doesn’t even have one Half-step Void God level martial artist. Without our protection, how could they have come this far?" Ouyang Lin sneered.

"Brother Ouyang makes a good point. There’s no free lunch. If you want benefits, you have to pay a price." The Half-step Void God martial artist from the Skywind Continent also glanced at Jing Yan and said.

"This is a bit too much! Although I am an outsider, dear Daoists, oppressing the Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists because they lack a Half-step Void God warrior is really not the behavior of a gentleman." Mr. Zhong shook his head and said slowly.

"Mr. Zhong, since you’re an outsider, you should not interfere in our native affairs." Ouyang Lin said unceremoniously.

Although Ouyang Lin and the others were also somewhat apprehensive of Mr. Zhong, it was far from being fear. They really didn’t like Mr. Zhong’s words.

"Hehe... it seems I’ve spoken out of turn." Mr. Zhong squinted his eyes and chuckled. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

"Haha, I understand now."

"The Heavenly Origin Continent having no Half-step Void God level martial artists means they should be cannon fodder for you to explore the path."

"Hmm, do you all think the same?" Jing Yan looked at the remaining few silent Half-step Void God martial artists.

Jing Yan’s words made everyone angry.

A young martial artist from the Heavenly Origin Continent dared to speak to them in such a tone. Even the Half-step Void God martial artists with the best tempers frowned at Jing Yan.

"Audacious!" Ouyang Lin shouted angrily.

"Boy, you’re too arrogant! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of us? Who gave you such courage?" Ouyang Lin’s aura fluctuated, as if he was about to make a move on Jing Yan.

"Good! Very good!"

"Originally, considering we’re all natives, I didn’t think too much into it. Now... since it’s like this, there’s nothing more to say." Jing Yan was truly disheartened.

"Despicable, you little brat! If you have the guts, then take them and get out! If you don’t, keep your mouth shut!" Ouyang Lin’s eyes turned red, but soon, a mocking expression appeared on his face as he taunted.

"No need for you to say so!" Jing Yan chuckled.

"Brother Yi Xiang, and fellow Daoists of the Heavenly Origin Continent, are you willing to follow me?" Jing Yan looked at the more than ten Saint Realm martial artists from the Heavenly Origin Continent.

The martial artists of the Heavenly Origin Continent looked at each other in dismay.

"Haha, what is there to hesitate about? Suffering this humiliation here, better to die outside quickly," a burly man laughed.

"Right, let’s go."

"Even if we die, it’s better than being cannon fodder here. Besides, we might not die." The Heavenly Origin Continent’s martial artists all spoke up, their long-suppressed frustration dissolving significantly.

Yi Xiang looked at everyone, sighed lightly, and said nothing more.

The people of the Heavenly Origin Continent indicated their willingness to go with Jing Yan.

"Mr. Zhong, can you come with us?" After nodding to the people of the Heavenly Origin Continent, Jing Yan looked at Mr. Zhong.

Mr. Zhong had previously used a great defensive holy artifact. If they could use this artifact to take the martial artists of the Heavenly Origin Continent along, it would undoubtedly be better.

Martial artists from other continents found it amusing to see Jing Yan asking Mr. Zhong like this. What did Jing Yan take Mr. Zhong for? Even if he wanted to take more than a dozen Heavenly Origin Continent martial artists, how could Mr. Zhong agree?

For a moment, they all found Jing Yan quite naive. They didn’t directly ridicule him but turned their eyes to Mr. Zhong, awaiting his reaction.
