Chapter 499: Chu Xin: Your adults are too hypocritical
“No harm done!”
Everyone waved their hands and shook their heads. Those from the Lower Realm nodded secretly. The disciples of the Crimson Flame Sacred Ground were indeed humble and polite. If they could ascend to the God Realm in the future, they might consider joining the Crimson Flame Sacred Ground for cultivation.
“Putting on an act.”
Xiao Ling’er couldn’t help but sneer.
Zhu Laojiu, Jin Laosan, He Laowu, and the others also showed disdain in their eyes.
Wang Lanxi didn’t speak. Chu Xin and Chu Chen’s gazes had long since fallen on the barrier of the Wood Dragon Forest, muttering about why it hadn’t started yet.
Just then, the disciple of the Crimson Flame Sacred Ground who was controlling the Blood Demon Mirror spoke, “Now, everyone, let’s attack the Wood Dragon Forest barrier together. If anyone deliberately holds back, wanting to reap the benefits without contributing, they will be attacked by all of us.”
“Naturally.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Everyone, let’s attack together.”
The disciple of the Crimson Flame Sacred Ground took the lead in attacking.
“Attack!”
Everyone shouted in unison, unleashing powerful attacks.
Boom!
Countless attacks landed on the Wood Dragon Forest’s barrier, causing a series of deafening explosions. The green barrier trembled violently, as if it was about to collapse.
“Push harder, the barrier is about to break,” someone shouted loudly.
“Attack!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen hid in the crowd, shouting in their childish voices. Their small hands waved continuously, unleashing sword Qi and saber light that slashed at the barrier.
“Don’t exert yourself so much. You need to conserve your strength to snatch the Wood Dragon Crown later,” Wang Lanxi whispered to them.
“Huh?”
Chu Xin turned to look at Wang Lanxi, surprised. “Grandmother Hao, didn’t they say we can’t deliberately hold back?”
“That’s right. If we deliberately hold back, we’ll be attacked by everyone,” Chu Chen nodded his little head, looking serious.
Xiao Ling’er smiled. “That’s what they say, but do you see anyone attacking with their full strength?”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen turned back to look carefully. They found that these people looked fierce, but their attacks were not very powerful. Obviously, none of them were attacking with their full strength.
Chu Xin frowned and said angrily, “You adults are so hypocritical. Unlike us children, we do what we’re told. It’s really annoying.”
“Hypocritical, very annoying!” Chu Chen echoed, baring his teeth, making a cute but fierce expression.
Wang Lanxi rubbed Chu Xin and Chu Chen’s little heads and said earnestly, “This is the real world. You must be very careful in the future and never be careless.”
“We understand, Grandmother Hao.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded in unison. When they attacked again, they shouted fiercely, but the sword Qi and saber light they unleashed were very illusory, disappearing as soon as they touched the green barrier.
Although everyone held back, their combined attacks were still terrifying.
After everyone’s “unremitting” efforts, there was finally a loud bang. The green barrier shattered, turning into countless green fragments that scattered throughout the Wood Dragon Forest.
“The barrier is broken. Attack, kill the Wood Dragon King first.”
Someone shouted and took the lead, charging towards the Wood Dragon King in the center.
Buzz!
Just then, numerous branches pierced through the air, instantly weaving into a sphere that enveloped the person. Then, a bloodcurdling scream rang out.
When the screaming stopped, the branches dispersed, but there was no trace of the person left in the void.
“Kill!”
But the person’s death did not deter the crowd. Instead, it aroused even greater killing intent. In an instant, almost everyone charged forward.
“Kill!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen jumped up and down behind them, shouting loudly, but they had no intention of joining the battle.
“Why aren’t you attacking?” Xiao Ling’er blinked her big eyes and asked with a smile.
Chu Xin turned to look at her, puzzled. “Didn’t you say we should hold back?”
“That’s right, this child can be taught,” Xiao Ling’er nodded with a smile.
Like them, there were many others who did not rush into the battlefield. Most of them were from the forces of the God Realm, such as the disciples of the Crimson Flame Sacred Ground. There were also a few people from the Lower Realm. They knew very well that if they rushed forward at this time, they would either be devoured by the Wood Dragons or be attacked and killed by those around them.
Everyone stood in the void, quietly watching the battlefield.
Green branches shuttled through the void, piercing through the bodies of Mortal Realm cultivators.
Anyone pierced by the Wood Dragon branches would have their life force devoured and turned into ashes.
Boom!
The ground shook, and powerful energy fluctuations rippled out, blasting a small patch of Wood Dragons to pieces, accompanied by a series of screams.
“Big Sister,”
Just then, Chu Chen tugged at Chu Xin’s clothes and whispered, “There are so many Spatial Rings. Shouldn’t we go pick them up?”
Chu Xin also looked at the Spatial Rings that were falling from the sky as the cultivators turned into ashes. She nodded firmly. “Of course, we should pick them up. Dad said that if you don’t take treasures when you see them, you’ll be struck by lightning.”
After saying that, she turned to Wang Lanxi and Xiao Ling’er and said, “Grandmother Hao, Sister Ling’er, we’re going to pick up treasures. You wait here for a while.”
“Pick up treasures?”
Wang Lanxi and Xiao Ling’er were stunned. Before they could react, Chu Xin and Chu Chen had already flown away.
Whoosh!
◈◈◈
Two small figures appeared above the treetops of the Wood Dragon Forest, below the cultivators, shuttling back and forth, collecting all the falling Spatial Rings into their own Spatial Rings.
From time to time, they would look up to see where a cultivator had fallen and go there. Occasionally, Wood Dragon branches would attack, but they easily dodged them. If they couldn’t dodge, they would just wave their hands and cut them off.
“These two little ones are really restless.”
Wang Lanxi rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
“That’s right. Wherever they go, they always manage to cause public outrage,” Xiao Ling’er said with a smile.
Zhu Laojiu, Jin Laosan, He Laowu, and the others nodded in agreement.
Not to mention anything else, today the two little toddlers were picking up the Spatial Rings of fallen cultivators on the battlefield, which was undoubtedly an act that would arouse public anger.
Everyone was fighting hard against the Wood Dragons. It would have been fine if they just stood by and watched, but these two little ones were actually taking advantage of the situation to pick up treasures. Who could tolerate that?
“Damn brats, put down those Spatial Rings.”
A disciple from the God Realm at the peak of the Mortal Realm couldn’t stand it anymore. He shouted angrily and charged towards Chu Xin and Chu Chen.
Whoosh!
Several green branches pierced through the air, instantly penetrating the person’s body, devouring him and turning him into ashes.
Chu Xin dodged a few branch attacks and looked back. Seeing that no one was around, she asked in confusion, “Little Brother, did someone just speak?”
Chu Chen waved his hand and cut off a few branches. He turned to look around and shook his head, also confused. “Did someone speak? I didn’t see anyone.”
“Forget it, let’s continue picking up Spatial Rings,” Chu Xin shook her head and rushed towards a falling Spatial Ring not far away. With a wave of her small hand, she collected it.
The onlookers in the distance finally came to their senses. While the two brats were picking up Spatial Rings, they were also constantly facing attacks from the Wood Dragons. But their speed was incredibly fast, and they could easily dodge most of the attacks. Even if they couldn’t dodge, they could just wave their hands and cut them off.
“These two brats are definitely not ordinary Peak Martial Venerables.”
Everyone frowned, having a deeper understanding of Chu Xin and Chu Chen’s strength.
“Humph!”
Two Half-step Divine Disciples from the God Realm snorted coldly and attacked Chu Xin and Chu Chen.
Chu Xin and Chu Chen ignored them and continued to collect the falling Spatial Rings.
However, their actions not only angered the onlookers but also the Wood Dragon group. Countless branches pierced through the air, surrounding them.
And the two Half-step Divine Disciples who had just charged over were also coincidentally included.
Boom!
Chu Xin and Chu Chen waved their small hands, unleashing sword Qi and saber light, shattering all the branches that surrounded them and breaking through.
But the two Half-step Divine Disciples who were surrounded were not so lucky. Although they also desperately unleashed their strongest attacks, wanting to imitate the two brats and break through.
However, their attacks were unable to instantly shatter those branches, preventing them from breaking through in time. In just that moment, countless branches had already closed in, forming a huge sphere.
The sphere rotated and continued to shrink and close. Two bloodcurdling screams rang out, and then there was silence.
Chu Xin and Chu Chen looked back in confusion. There seemed to be screams just now?
But they looked around and didn’t see anyone. They turned back and continued to pick up Spatial Rings.
“Hiss!”
The onlookers gasped. Those were the attacks of two Half-step Divine Disciples, yet they were unable to instantly shatter those branches. From this, it could be seen that the Wood Dragons attacking the two brats were stronger than those attacking the other cultivators.
But even so, the two brats still easily shattered the Wood Dragon’s attacks and broke through.
They might not even have noticed the appearance of the two Half-step Divine Disciples, and were still focused on picking up Spatial Rings.
Everyone’s mouths twitched, completely speechless.
There was a reason why these two brats could pick up Spatial Rings on the battlefield. At least they had the strength to do so.
“Big Sister, there are too many Spatial Rings. We need to use our Battle Bodies.”
Chu Chen looked at the Spatial Rings falling in the distance and directly summoned his eight Battle Bodies.
“That’s right, we should summon our Battle Bodies.”
Chu Xin also nodded and summoned her eight Battle Bodies.
Eighteen small figures shuttled through the battlefield, quickly collecting the Spatial Rings.
They followed the battlefield and slowly approached the Wood Dragon King in the center.
“Big Sister! That’s the Wood Dragon King. How about we kill it first and take the Wood Dragon Crown?” Chu Chen looked up at the huge tree in the distance and whispered.
“That’s exactly what I was thinking.”
Chu Xin nodded. Then, the siblings left their respective Battle Bodies to continue picking up Spatial Rings, and they soared into the sky.
They themselves did not have any energy fluctuations. As long as they were not seen with the naked eye, no Emperor’s Sense or Divine Sense could detect them.
“Those two brats are gone?”
Those who were paying attention to Chu Xin and Chu Chen frowned slightly.
“They want to sneak attack the Wood Dragon King. Everyone attack together. We can’t let them get there first,” someone shouted loudly.
Hearing this, the onlookers who had been quietly watching couldn’t hold back any longer. They charged towards the Wood Dragon King. Some people wanted to imitate the two brats and attack from the clouds.
Whoosh!
Thick branches pierced through the air from the distant clouds, instantly penetrating the bodies of those cultivators. Accompanied by screams, corpses fell from the sky.
After killing these cultivators, the branches did not leave. Instead, they remained in the clouds, as if searching for any survivors. After a long time, the branches finally plunged down from the clouds.
When all the branches disappeared, a divine coffin emerged from the clouds.
