We Agreed to Brag Together, But You Secretly Dominated the World Chapter 477 -: All the Experts Attack

“You…” Jin Yuan of the Divine Gold Clan’s face turned a deathly pale. At their esteemed level, each master held their pride in high regard. After all, these were all experts of the Great Saint Realm; admitting inferiority was unthinkable for any of them. Yet, Su Chen had unceremoniously brought his past accomplishments to light, making him feel as though he’d been publicly slapped, his face burning with shame.

“Hmph! You truly have not the slightest grasp of life and death! Oblivious even as death looms!” Jin Yuan let out a cold snort, his expression chilling. “I’ve heard you’ve made quite a name for yourself in the East Barrens, with numerous forces holding you in high esteem. But don’t forget! This is the Southern Region, the dominion of our myriad races. The status of humans here is as insignificant as ants; we can extinguish their lives on a whim. There are precious few forces to lend you aid. Relying solely on a Great Saint Realm cultivator like yourself, no matter how cunning you may be, you are fated to perish this day! Let me offer you some advice. If you still possess a shred of common sense, hand over that quasi-emperor’s coffin immediately. In doing so, I might grant you a dignified demise. Otherwise…”

Jin Yuan paused at this juncture, his gaze sweeping across the vicinity before he resumed speaking, his tone suddenly turning frigid. “I shall extract your divine soul and condemn you to an eternity of damnation, to endure the torments of soul refinement on a daily basis!”

“Why squander so much breath on him? Simply attack and subjugate him directly!” someone interjected at this critical moment.

Behind Su Chen, a figure stood with imposing height. With him as the focal point, an area spanning tens of thousands of miles transformed into a desolate wasteland, saturated with an aura of decay.

Another individual, clad in black attire, poised themselves upon the void. Manifesting behind them was a terrifying spectacle—countless spectral corpses of gods and devils floated ominously, akin to a netherworld purgatory descending upon the mortal realm.

To the northwest, a Heaven Devouring Beast advanced, treading through a crimson sea of blood. It resembled an apocalyptic fiend poised to extinguish Su Chen’s path of escape, its colossal form consuming every available space.

“Surrender the quasi-emperor’s coffin, and I shall spare your life!”

At this very instant, an endless throng of experts materialized from the void. The sky, the earth, the spaces before and behind—everywhere, formidable figures emerged, unleashing peerless and tempestuous auras. It appeared as though a world-shattering conflict could erupt at any second.

In the eyes of all present, Su Chen was already a dead man walking. The sole point of contention was which faction would ultimately secure the coffin clutched in his grasp—this was their foremost concern.

“Wait!”

Just as preparations for the assault were being finalized, a gentle voice resonated. Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze toward Su Chen, a sense of bewilderment etched on their faces.

“Su Chen, do you have any final words to speak?” The Saint King Realm master of the Thundercloud Hou Clan addressed Su Chen with a profound intensity.

He harbored no particular concern for the quasi-emperor’s coffin, but he could not overlook the demise of his clan’s great saint. Today, regardless of any other circumstances, justice would be served!

“You hail from the Thundercloud Hou Clan, is that correct? I recall dispatching one of your great saints. I must confess, your clan’s flesh possesses a rather tenacious and chewy texture. However, stewing it does temper it remarkably well.”

Su Chen rotated his head to cast a glance at the expert from the Thundercloud Hou Clan, remarking with nonchalant ease. Then, without awaiting the latter’s ensuing fury, Su Chen directed his attention elsewhere, a subtle smile playing upon his lips.

“This young friend appears to share a destined connection with me! Why not hold for a moment while I bestow this opportune moment? We may then engage in a bout of sparring.”

Su Chen’s gaze finally alighted upon the young man positioned behind the elder of the Long family. Observing this, all present redirected their attention to that specific individual as well.

“Long Aotian?”

“Long Aotian has a connection with him?”

“The Long family and Su Chen harbored a profound animosity! How could they possibly be bound by destiny?”

“What stratagem is Su Chen employing?”

“Could he be seeking refuge from the Long family, aiming to preserve his life?”

“Why would the Long family offer assistance to Su Chen?”

“I fail to comprehend. Is this merely a ruse to prolong his time?”

Many individuals furrowed their brows in confusion regarding Su Chen’s address toward the renowned Long Aotian.

Regarding the youth from the Long family, he was a figure they were reasonably familiar with. After all, Long Aotian’s reputation throughout the Southern Region was widely acknowledged. He had previously held the esteemed title of being the foremost among the younger generation.

However, with Su Chen’s declaration of a shared destiny, it inevitably sparked a multitude of speculations among the assembled crowd.

“Haha… Does Fellow Daoist Su Chen intend to seek reconciliation with our Long family? Nevertheless, I must inform you—our clan members are not so easily dispatched. If you wish for the Long family to set aside past grievances, present the quasi-emperor’s coffin for our examination. Then, perhaps, past transgressions can be overlooked.”

The elder of the Long family spoke with a smile, perceiving nothing out of the ordinary in Su Chen’s demeanor. After all, with numerous potent experts encircling them, how long could a solitary individual possibly hold out? Su Chen was likely attempting to garner assistance by feigning a connection with one of their juniors. However, the approach was overtly transparent. Even the Long family elder would have first sought to placate Su Chen before lodging such exorbitant demands. One did not typically refuse gratuitous advantages that happened to be delivered right to their doorstep.

Their plan was to eliminate Su Chen once they had acquired what they sought, a move that would potentially earn the Long family gratitude from other factions.

Subsequently, with Chen Su of the White Jade Divine Elephant Clan making an appearance, who would dare challenge the Long family for the World-Transcending Sword Master's legacy?

Considering this, the smile on the Long family elder's face broadened, his gaze softening. The experts surrounding Su Chen found themselves in a difficult position.

Should they act now, they risked incurring the Long family's wrath, yet inaction would mean a loss of face. In their quandary, their attention turned to the saint king of the Thundercloud Hou Clan, the most respected figure present. The decision, they implicitly agreed, now rested with him.

The expert from the Thundercloud Hou Clan's expression was grim. In that moment, he wished nothing more than to strike down Su Chen. His prior pronouncements felt insultingly insufficient given what Su Chen had done!

Not only had Su Chen slain one of his kinsmen, but he had also... consumed him! It was an offense so profoundly humiliating to a clan that it could not be borne.

However, in the current circumstances, he dared not make a move, as the Long family's strength surpassed his own, their saint kings possessing an unmatched level of power.

Resigned, he forcefully suppressed his murderous intent and his animosity, stepping aside with a frosty exhalation.
