Chapter 7309 The Purgatory Eyes against the Soul Assimilation Blood Eyes

“The killer?” Young master Qi sneered contemptuously. “I don’t like the way you say it. If you stepped on a bunch of ants, I wouldn’t call you a killer, now would I? Those were just low-born monkeys. They don’t even count as people.”

The academy’s disciples were outraged with him. He was actually so arrogant, even after killing their friends!

Chi Yan didn’t say anything. He just calmly looked at Long Chen. He had done what he had come to do. Considering how they had come here with such fanfare, it was impossible for others not to notice. Long Chen had charged into the Holy Brahma Land and destroyed it, and now, it was time for him to suffer the consequences.

The sound of Long Chen’s steps rang out loud and clear in the deathly silence. Everyone’s gaze was concentrated on him.

“You’re Long Chen? You’re quite powerful, but that’s all. You were lucky not to be born in an era of real geniuses. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even have a chance to make a name for yourself!” Young Master Qi seemed to hold Long Chen in no regard. He arrogantly said, “Let me introduce myself. My name is Qi Bayuan. I am one of the Heavenly Eye race’s four Holy Children. My father and mother are Heavenly Sovereigns who fought in the primal chaos war and made great contributions to the nine heavens. They received a blessing from the Heavenly Daos as a result, and my entire family is favored by the Heavenly Daos. To become enemies with us is to become enemies with the Heavenly Daos. The karma involved will always be settled by the Heavenly Daos. Lord Brahma knows that I did it, but he doesn’t dare to kill me because he is afraid of that karma. As for you, haha, do you have the guts?”

Qi Bayuan’s speech shook the hearts of everyone from the academy. Only now did they learn just how terrifying his background was. It was no wonder he was fearless even after being caged. They also understood exactly what the Brahma line was doing—they had just thrown a scalding-hot potato to Long Chen. They were truly conniving.

Everyone from the academy was apprehensive. This person’s background was too frightening. A Holy Son of the Heavenly Eye race? His father and mother were both Heavenly Sovereigns? If Long Chen killed him, the Heavenly Eye race would definitely declare war on the High Firmament Academy. In other words, the Brahma line was inciting the two against each other. Long Ziwei and the others also realized why Zi Yan and Miao Yin were so worried; they had immediately seen through the Brahma line’s machinations.

Chi Yan and the others watched as this played out. They left the most conspicuous spot to Qi Bayuan, and relegated themselves to the position of spectators.

The Brahma line and the Heavenly Eye race had never had particularly good relations. This time, due to expanding their influence, the Brahma line ended up in a conflict with the Heavenly Eye race. The Heavenly Eye race had attempted to deal a blow to the Brahma line, and the Brahma line wished to reply in kind. That was why when Chi Yan learned that the person who had caused all this was Qi Bayuan, he was actually ecstatic. It felt like a meat pie had just dropped from the heavens. As for the Heavenly Eye race blaming the Brahma line, he did not care. If the Heavenly Eye race dared to scheme against them, then the Brahma line dared to do the same. Did they think that the Brahma line would suffer a loss so easily?

“Lord Chi Yan, will Long Chen be afraid?” said Fan Kong. He was naturally present; there was no way he would skip watching such a scene.

“Afraid? Please...” Chi Yan smiled slightly. “Do you think that Long Chen holds the Heavenly Eye race in greater regard than the Brahma line? He’s never feared us, and we are definitely not weaker than the Heavenly Eye race. So why would he be afraid of them?”

“But it’s an obvious trap. Is he really going to jump into it?” asked Fan Kong.

“That’s not up to him!” Chi Yan smirked.

If Long Chen did kill Qi Bayuan, the Heavenly Eye race would become mortal enemies with the High Firmament Academy. Even if war didn’t immediately break out, a major clash eventually breaking out between them was inevitable. If he did not kill Qi Bayuan, then his image of a fearless hero would shatter. Someone who didn’t dare to stand up for his disciples was not fit to be the leader of the human race. His worshippers and followers would all be disappointed; in fact, they may even curse him.

Once a person’s public image shattered, it was essentially impossible to restore it to what it had been before. Long Chen would be done for. In fact, from Chi Yan’s viewpoint, it would be best if Long Chen didn’t kill Qi Bayuan. Having his position in people’s hearts plummet was actually a better outcome than war between these two major factions!

Just as everyone was waiting with bated breath, Long Chen reached the cage and slowly pressed a hand onto the bars. Everyone’s hearts clenched. The academy’s disciples felt extremely conflicted. They wanted the disciples who had died to be avenged, but their rational side told them that if they killed Qi Bayuan, they would be causing a major calamity.

The cage’s runes suddenly burst open. The sealing formation fell apart. The chains binding Qi Bayuan fell apart.

The academy’s disciples felt a wave of relief, but also disappointment. They were relieved that the future calamity was avoided by freeing Qi Bayuan, and they weren’t falling for the Brahma line’s trap. But they also felt Long Chen’s grand image slowly falling apart. That contradictory feeling was truly painful.

“Hahaha!”

Qi Bayuan instantly regained his freedom. A sacred aura burst out of his body. He raised his head and laughed.

“I suppose that you’re smar—”

POW!

Just as everyone thought that Long Chen was freeing Qi Bayuan, Long Chen’s hand made intimate contact with his face! An explosive sound rang out as Qi Bayuan slammed into the ground, and a wave of dust rose.

“Who do you think you are to judge my smarts?” sneered Long Chen.

“You are courting death!”

Qi Bayuan’s furious roar came from the ground. Suddenly, the void collapsed. No one saw him do anything, but he was already standing in the sky and forming hand seals.

Two giant eyes appeared behind him. They were like two blood moons. Heaven and earth changed color. The ten thousand Daos cried out.

“Soul Assimilation Blood Eyes!” Qi Bayuan shouted furiously.

Strange divine runes appeared in those two giant eyes. The divine runes flowed, transforming into two giant vortices, and everyone was horrified to feel their souls being pulled by a terrifying force. It was actually impossible to resist!

Fortunately, Zi Yan had long since been prepared. She waved her hand, and the Heavenly Devil Zither appeared.

However, just then, Long Chen formed a one-handed seal. A pair of giant eyes also appeared behind him. These two eyes were pitch-black, and the moment they appeared, a violent, bloodthirsty, and shadowy aura spread. It felt as if the gates of hell had just opened. The aura of death filled everyone's hearts!

And when the four eyes met, Qi Bayuan screamed.

“AAAAAAHHHHH!”

The giant eyes behind him instantly collapsed. He slammed his eyes shut, but blood slowly oozed out of the corners of his eyes.
