Chapter 889: Chapter 672: Just a Mere Crystal Poison
August let out a deep sigh. Indeed, Long Yi had been careless; he had no idea about the power of the Crystal Poison.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha!" Slade began to laugh maniacally, "That’s right, poor child, feel the fear death brings! I will die as a Crazy Demon, and you! Long Yi! You will soon become a Crazy Demon as well! There will no longer be a person named Long Yi in this universe! Hahaha!"
Bang!
While Slade was still laughing, Long Yi landed a solid kick right on his face. Just as he was sent flying, Long Yi grabbed his ankle.
"You idiot, shut the f*** up!"
Long Yi, holding onto Slade’s ankle, kept slamming him left and right on the ground like a broken sack. The crystals on Slade’s body kept flying off, landing on Long Yi. However, Slade was not screaming but was, in fact, still laughing madly.
"Ah!"
The Emperor of the Divine Auffa Empire, Saint Jialin, let out a heavy sigh. He had originally planned to recruit Long Yi into their Empire. But, as he had expected, Long Yi was too arrogant. He was so arrogant that he didn’t understand what it meant to be cautious or to restrain himself.
By now, Long Yi must have been infected with the Crystal Poison, and even though there were no signs yet, the symptoms would appear soon. And once Long Yi’s symptoms started, what would Ai Lin do? Would she explode in anger?
At that moment, Ai Lin’s expression was still very calm. She was stroking Ziyue’s mane with one hand, still wearing that signature indifferent look on her face.
Ah, that’s right, Long Yi was just a guard, a guard she had won with a game of rock-paper-scissors; she couldn’t possibly be heartbroken over Long Yi!
"It’s time for you to perform."
The Emperor whispered to his three sons.
"I know!"
The Crown Prince, Saint Julio, was the quickest to react. He took a few steps towards Ai Lin.
"Miss Ailin, I am so sorry," Saint Julio tried to make his voice as gentle and sorrowful as possible.
"Sorry? For what?" Ai Lin asked puzzledly.
"Because your guard, Long Yi, is going to die," Saint Julio continued sorrowfully.
"Die? Are you out of your mind? Or do you feel like you deserve another beating, and want me to teach you a lesson?" Ai Lin’s beautiful brows slightly furrowed.
"But... he has been infected with the Crystal Poison..." Saint Julio quickly explained, turning to Saint Cassio for help.
"Yes, Miss Ailin, Mr. Long Yi is beyond salvation. He has been infected with the Crystal Poison, and although it’s not apparent yet, he will soon turn into a Crazy Demon. Please, prepare yourself," Saint Cassio said consolingly.
"You two are complete idiots," Ai Lin shook her head helplessly, paying them no more attention.
Saint Cassio and Crown Prince Saint Julio looked at each other, puzzled. Had they said something wrong? But no, they were speaking of Crystal Poison, a sure sentence of death. What was there to argue?
On the other side, the Emperor of the Sanctuary Empire’s eyes were filled with excitement. Despite having lost a Sanctuary Mage, if he could kill Long Yi, the Divine Auffa Empire’s loss would be much greater! After all, Long Yi was not just any ordinary warrior; counting Slade, he had killed three well-known Sanctuary Mages! And Long Yi’s Female Demon maid, Little Zi, was also a Sanctuary Mage! This was killing multiple birds with one stone!
However, at this moment, Long Yi showed no signs of an imminent death. After a round of beatings, he snatched Slade’s heavy staff, broke off the long handle, and used the heavy top as a one-handed war hammer, smashing it down with simple brute force.
And now, what spurted from Slade’s body was no longer blood, but crystals!
In just a short time, Slade had fully crystallized!
Bang!
With a heavy strike, the crystals shattered, but in a blink of an eye, they started to reform!
"Watch out! He’s starting to transform into a Crazy Demon!"
Both sides’ fighters were ready, for a Sanctuary Mage turning into a Crazy Demon would have unimaginable destructive power.
"Lingling!"
Long Yi called out in a low voice, and Lingling emerged from his private space, transforming one hand into a Light Cannon.
Boom!
With one blast, the Crystal Core that hadn’t fully formed directly shattered, and the Crazy Demon’s actions instantly stopped. Lingling reached out, and all the crystals in the air instantly crumbled, all flowing towards Lingling and then disappearing without a trace.
"In my life, I’ve never seen someone so stupid, to think about mutual destruction even when beaten!"
Long Yi curled his lips, broke off a piece of the Cosmic Stone from the top of the staff, and walked over to Ai Lin.
"Oh, my beautiful mistress, only this gem can complement your flawlessness."
Long Yi said with a smile, handing the Cosmic Stone shard to Ai Lin. Ai Lin smiled sweetly, took the shard, and fused it with her original piece.
"Don’t rush, let me help you get the other two fragments as well."
With that said, Long Yi screamed and charged towards the Saint Karen and Saint Ailun brothers.
However, by then, the spectators were already dumbfounded.
Long Yi, he didn’t die!
Not only did he not die, his Water Spirit Golem even devoured Slade who was turning into a Crazy Demon!
Long Yi is immune to Crystal Poison!
Though rare, indeed there are very few people who are immune to Crystal Poison. But for some reason, none of those immune to Crystal Poison were ever powerhouses. Yet now, they saw that Long Yi was completely immune to Crystal Poison! The Crystal Poison that landed on Long Yi’s body didn’t concern him at all!
And now, Long Yi was charging directly at the two princes of the Divine Auffa Empire!
Now, Saint Danze, the Emperor of the Divine Auffa Empire, was finally scared.
"Third Brigade, cover your princes’ retreat!"
Saint Danze commanded loudly.
"Thinking of leaving? It won’t be that easy! If you don’t leave those Cosmic Stone fragments behind today, I’ll chop off your arms!"
Long Yi roared furiously.
Saint Karen and Saint Ailun, the two brothers, were truly terrified. The fact that they hadn’t been able to turn the tables in the fight against Little Zi already had them extremely tense, and the battle between Long Yi and Slade was even more terrifying. Long Yi had overwhelmed Slade in a dominant fashion to win, even if Slade turned into a Crazy Demon and died together with Long Yi, it was still Slade who ended up dead!
How could they fight such an enemy?
The Third Magic Brigade of the Divine Auffa Empire also charged up, trying to cover the retreat of the two princes. However, the enormous Red Demon Scorpion rushed towards them, sweeping a deadly, poisonous beam across the field. Even the well-armored of the Third Magic Brigade grew dim, and soldiers who were hit through the gaps in their armor with skin contact immediately felt bone-piercing torment, almost fainting!
"The Cosmic Stone fragments are mine! No one can stop me!" Long Yi was rampaging like a bandit, and those so-called members of the Third Magic Brigade simply couldn’t stop him.
In fact, those soldiers felt a natural fear of Long Yi. His reputation as the king of the Stellar Realm’s Arena was already frightening enough; then his rampage across the Plane in revenge against the old mages who tried to buy his head made his name known to everyone there; and now, right in front of these soldiers, Long Yi had killed a Divine Auffa Mage in such a way! And it was a well-known Divine Auffa Mage at that! Fine, you could say that the Divine Auffa Mage wasn’t strong, but in the end, Long Yi wasn’t afraid of even the Crystal Poison and crushed Slade into nothing using the most brutal means! No, not even dust was left!
How can one stop such a man? At the sight of Long Yi, all the soldiers’ steps faltered. When Long Yi charged, the fact that those soldiers didn’t flee proved their loyalty to the Emperor!
"Stop him! Stop him for me!"
The Saint Karen and Saint Ailun brothers were mentally collapsing. If they had some reluctance to accept defeat in the last battle, now they had no excuses left.
"Nobody can stop me! No one can! The bracelet is mine! The Cosmic Stone is mine!"
Long Yi shouted loudly.
"Take it! We don’t want it anymore!"
The two brothers immediately canceled the magic on their bracelets and tossed them far away.
Long Yi raised his hand, caught it, and then stood still. Then he turned around with a smile, "Gentlemen, I won’t see you out."
This victory.
It was beyond anyone’s expectation.
This should be considered a complete triumph, right?
Ai Lin and Long Yi withstood all the combat power of the Divine Auffa Empire, not even caring about the opponent’s most terrifying Crystal Poison attacks!
This was simply inconceivable!
But, the fact was right before their eyes. It must be said, whether it was Ai Lin or Long Yi, they were just too strong. Many times, almost everyone thought Long Yi would lose, but in the end, the results proved that Long Yi not only didn’t lose, but won cleanly and decisively.
Prince Saint Julio understood that his judgment was wrong once again, and what awaited him would inevitably be an even colder reception from Ai Lin.
It was a conclusion clear for all to see.
However, Ai Lin seemed to be in a good mood, especially since she had gotten her hands on the two Cosmic Stone fragments, which greatly boosted her strength. The three princes of The Divine Auffa Empire drooled with envy but didn’t dare say a word. On the other hand, everyone from the Divine Auffa Empire, from the Emperor to the soldiers, was indignant, yet they were helpless.
Their group had come looking for a fight, but not only had they failed, they were completely suppressed by Long Yi. This was simply inconceivable! Was Long Yi really that strong?
No, Emperor Saint Danze of the Divine Auffa Empire did not think so. Long Yi was undoubtedly strong. But no matter how powerful an enemy, they must have a weakness. The group had acted rashly before finding Long Yi’s weakness, leading to failure. It wasn’t a failure of their own, but a failure to prepare sufficiently.
Saint Danze looked at his two sons, who were now scared out of their wits, sighed helplessly, and knew they could only accept their bad luck for the day. So, he didn’t say anything more and waved his hand, leading everyone away.
They would make long-term plans... long-term plans! (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to qidian.com to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
