Chapter 816: Chapter 638: Is This All You’re Capable Of?
And at this moment, Long Yi had already walked over, treading on the magma.
"Alright, now let’s have a proper talk!"
Long Yi squatted in front of the man.
"Don’t you dare touch me!"
The man shrank back, but there was nowhere for him to retreat.
"Forget it, I suddenly don’t feel like talking anymore."
Long Yi smiled slightly and threw a punch at the man’s stomach. The man instinctively clutched his belly, and then Long Yi grabbed his head.
Suddenly, a very familiar power emerged.
Power of Rules!
Almost simultaneously, the gluttonous serpent that had been lurking inside Long Yi appeared again. Dark golden lightning penetrated the man’s body, beginning to search for the Power of Rules on its own.
Soon, Long Yi found the source of the so-called Power of Rules. It was an ancient rune embedded in his chest that seemed to be made of Giant’s material, but it was probably a replica. Although it was a replica, the Power of Rules in it was real.
The dark golden gluttonous serpent showed its true nature—it ate.
The Power of Rules in the rune began to unravel bit by bit, slowly merging into Long Yi’s body. Then, for the first time, Long Yi learned what the advanced application of the so-called Power of Rules was actually about.
The Power of Rules within this man was named Neglecter, which, as the name implied, meant ignoring everything. According to the original rules, anyone with this power could entirely ignore any external interference. Be it light, heat, rocks, water—any external disturbance could be ignored. However, because it was a replica, it could ignore very few things, and there were a lot of restrictions. For example, he could ignore the magic shields of prisons and also sidestep assaults from rocks. But he could not ignore the damage from lightning or the high temperature within the lava.
But even so, this was still miraculous.
The gluttonous serpent quickly devoured all the rules within the rune. The rune embedded in the man’s chest quietly shattered. The man, who had been relying on the Power of Rules in the rune to save his life, immediately despaired.
He struggled desperately, trying to break free from Long Yi’s grip, but Long Yi’s hand was not so easily escaped.
Long Yi smiled faintly and tossed the man into the magma. The man didn’t even have time to scream before he was submerged under the magma.
After that, the magma gradually solidified. The ground returned to being smooth, and the blood left from the battle was consumed by the scorching magma.
In the vast Arena, only Long Yi was standing there.
"Long Yi! Long Yi! Long Yi!"
The cheers of the spectators rose warmly. If Long Yi’s slightly magnanimous demeanor just now had made some feel a bit dissatisfied, then the complete annihilation of his opponent now was enough to satisfy everyone!
Lingrin’s face appeared in the sky.
"Speak up, boss, don’t be shy."
Long Yi spoke with a smile.
"You’ve won, Long Yi. You’ve earned the right to enter the ladder match. But don’t get too smug. I promise, I will make your ladder match a lot of fun!"
Lingrin’s expression was sinister.
"Really? Then I’m truly looking forward to it! Just don’t make it too boring for me with someone like the guy before who scurries around everywhere. That really is too dull."
Long Yi said, yawning, as if he was about to fall asleep.
"Don’t worry, I won’t let you be bored. You can look forward to it!" Lingrin said with a cold laugh, then disappeared into the sky.
Long Yi’s match had come to an end. The share from the official betting would allow him to earn a substantial prize, and this was instantly credited to his account. Similarly, the warriors who had died in battle were also paid a handsome sum to their designated beneficiaries.
Although Long Yi’s fight was over, Ai Lin was in no hurry to leave, as someone had come to see her.
"This gentleman here is the Crown Prince of the Sanctuary Empire, His Highness Saint Garand."
The old man at the door looked up, introducing the young and handsome man to Ai Lin from his lofty position.
As soon as Saint Garand saw Ai Lin, he froze completely.
He had heard that the three Crown Princes of The Divine Auffa Empire were all pursuing the same girl at the same time, and he thought it was just another means for the brothers to declare a winner among themselves. But when he saw the girl with his own eyes, he realized that there was such an extraordinarily beautiful girl in this plane!
Her silver hair cascaded gently down, and her equally silver eyes sparkled with dissatisfaction. The silver body armor she wore outlined the girl’s flawless curves, with densely packed runes etched onto it. The Mana Star on her chest proved that the girl was not just pure beauty, but also a Mage of considerable skill!
"Beauty with brains" is the term to describe her, isn’t it?
Originally, Saint Garand had come to make trouble, but upon seeing Ai Lin, he visibly restrained his expression. He tried to make a gentlemanly face. Just as he was about to speak, Ai Lin spoke first.
"The guy who was just thrown into the magma, did you send him?"
Saint Garand was taken aback, then immediately knew whom Ai Lin was talking about.
"Yes, it was me."
This kind of act wasn’t illegal, many nobles and wealthy people secretly sent their own people to control matches to make a fortune, so there was nothing shameful to admit.
"So a Crown Prince also engages in such lowly behaviors?"
