Chapter 1753: Each Had Their Own Agenda

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

Heaven Field had already paid a huge price today, as dozens of saint kings who had the potential to become supreme saints had been killed. It was impossible for them to let go of the monks from Kunlun’s Field because of Wang Xu and Yan Ni.

Which was why Zhang Ruochen agreed to only take two monks back.

“Give me the two children.”

Gong Ziyan took Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue from the two dwarf saint kings.

However, he immediately drew a space formation print on each of their backs.

Obviously, these two kids were Zhang Ruochen’s weakness, so there was no way he would return them to Zhang Ruochen.

Gong Ziyan sniggered and walked toward Zhang Ruochen, holding one kid in each hand.

Zhang Ruochen also walked toward Gong Ziyan, holding Wang Xu and Yan Ni.

The saint kings from Heaven Field all released rumbling murderous Qi when they were hundreds of feet away from each other. Once the exchange was over, they would definitely make earth-shattering attacks to annihilate Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen was enraged, but he was still grounded and shared eye contact with Nine Heavenly Maiden.

They didn’t transmit their voices or use their mind power to communicate with each other, but they already knew what they were going to do from that eye contact. They knew each other well enough to do that.

Nine Heavenly Maiden nodded vaguely.

Xun Ya transmitted his voice to the four four-winged crimson angels: “Be careful. On the surface, they’re exchanging the hostages, but they’re actually fighting each other in the Way of Space.”

“What do you mean?”

A sturdy crimson angel was confused.

Xun Ya said, “Neither Zhang Ruochen nor Gong Ziyan wants to hand the hostages to the other, so they’ll definitely try to keep the hostages and take away each other’s hostages.”

“I see.”

Another four-winged crimson angel said, “Gong Ziyan is a seventh-step saint king, but Zhang Ruochen is only a fourth-step saint king. Gong Ziyan is at an absolute advantage this time, and he’ll crush Zhang Ruochen.”

“Even so, we need to be careful. If Zhang Ruochen gets the upper hand, we’ll have to help Gong Ziyan and make sure that Zhang Ruochen doesn’t snatch our bargaining chips,” said Xun Ya.

“Okay.”

The four crimson angels started to change their locations secretly.

Gong Ziyan walked forward while keeping track of the distance between him and Zhang Ruochen, because the space prints he carved on Chi Kunlun’s and Chi Kongyue’s backs were very simple, and they would only work within one hundred feet.

Zhang Ruochen stopped walking when he was one hundred and sixty feet away from Gong Ziyan and said, “This is it, and don’t get any closer. I’m worried that you might use some despicable techniques if we get too close.”

Gong Ziyan scowled, stopped walking, and said, “I’m the leader of Space Godly Palace, and I’m a man of honor. There’s no way I’d do anything sneaky. As for you, well… You killed many innocent monks in the Mountain-Sealing Palace under a false identity.”

“You call them innocent?”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t try to avoid that. He paused for a second and said, “Whatever. Stop talking about those irrelevant things and being so sanctimonious. Let’s exchange our hostages first.”

“Okay,” said Gong Ziyan.

Although Zhang Ruochen was more than one hundred feet away from Gong Ziyan, he could snatch them back before Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue were closer than one hundred feet away from him. As for Wang Xu and Yan Ni, Xun Ya could grasp them at any time.

Zhang Ruochen and Gong Ziyan both threw their hostages. Wang Xu, Yan Ni, Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue almost flew out at the same time.

They got closer and closer to each other.

Zhang Ruochen and Gong Ziyan both stood still, gazing at each other.

The entire godly palace was breathing with tension, and the monks couldn’t be more solemn. Some of them were trying to operate saint Qi in their bodies and gathered it in the saint weapons in their hands. They could make an attack at any time.

As those four were about to intertwine with each other, getting seventy to eighty feet away from Zhang Ruochen and Gong Ziyan, Gong Ziyan suddenly pointed his finger at Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue.

The space formation prints on Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue gleamed with blazing light, shaking the space around them and forming two space whirlpools.

Gong Ziyan couldn’t help smiling smugly, as he thought he was about to get those two kids back.

Suddenly…

Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue, who were floating in the air, disappeared.

Gong Ziyan then looked to Zhang Ruochen in the distance, and he found out with shock that Zhang Ruochen was able to perform spatial capture without space formation prints, which looked familiar to him.

“Not that easy to get them back.”

Gong Ziyan wielded a Space Freeze Rune, which froze the space dozens of square feet around Zhang Ruochen, which hindered Zhang Ruochen’s spatial capture.

Whoosh!

Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue showed up thirty feet away from Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen performed spatial move and showed up right under those two kids and reached his arms upwards.

“Break!”

Zhang Ruochen tore apart the frozen space and triggered the power of time.

Time paused for a second in the space around Zhang Ruochen, Chi Kunlun, Chi Kongyue, and Gong Ziyan.

Seizing this moment, Zhang Ruochen approached Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue and shielded them like a mountain.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen tried to stab Gong Ziyan’s forehead with his Eight-dragon Umbrella.

After the power of time vanished, Gong Ziyan recovered, and all he could see was eye-piercing golden light, which gave him a headache.

Gong Ziyan’s body came out in a cold sweat as he realized he had underestimated Zhang Ruochen.

“Descendant of Time and Space, Descendant of Time and Space… He can use the power of time and the power of space.”

Gong Ziyan had spent most of his time and energy studying the Way of Space, and he’d almost never practiced the martial way or saint spells except those necessary to improve his cultivation.

Gong Ziyan knew that he wouldn’t stand much of a chance against Zhang Ruochen in the martial way, even if he was a seventh-step saint king.

After all, as a space manipulator, Gong Ziyan was too proud to practice other techniques, like fist techniques, sword techniques, and palm techniques, which were practiced by savages in his opinion.

Which was why Gong Ziyan panicked when Zhang Ruochen was trying to stab him at that close distance. He had to move a couple feet away to the left to dodge it.

To Gong Ziyan’s surprise, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have a second strike. Instead, he rushed forward as if he’d toppled.

Gong Ziyan wouldn’t let this perfect opportunity slip away. He tried to seize Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue. As long as he had them under his control, Zhang Ruochen would have to do whatever he wanted.

However, the Carnivorous Holy Flower wielded two vines, entangling Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue, and dragging them out of the godly palace.

On the other side, four crimson angels tried to seize Wang Xu and Yan Ni, but they were knocked away by the huge Bagua print formed by the Amazing Little Taoist’s Purple-gold Bagua Mirror.

Xun Ya used his Blood Battle Wheel, but it was still warded off by the Purple-gold Bagua Mirror.

Xie Chengzi flew out and grabbed Wang Xu and Yan Ni.

Everything happened in an instant, and none of them could’ve moved faster.

Gong Ziyan was incensed and ordered, “What’re you still waiting for. Suppress and kill them now!”

They didn’t have the capacity to care about Wang Xu and Yan Ni anymore. If Zhang Ruochen had them under control, the saint kings from Heaven Field would be restrained by Zhang Ruochen, which meant this assassination action would fail.

More than half of the saint kings from Heaven Field were gathered in the godly palace, and almost half of them were stronger than fourth-step saint kings. Hearing Gong Ziyan’s order, they all made attacks against the Amazing Little Taoist, Xie Chengzi, and Zhang Ruochen.

Even the ten godly disciples needed to get away in front of those attacks, not to mention them.

“Go!”

The Amazing Little Taoist immediately retreated and mobilized supreme power, trying to use the Purple-gold Bagua Mirror to ward off the attacks.

Boom!

The power from the attack was too strong for the Purple-gold Bagua Mirror to withstand, and it knocked both the Amazing Little Taoist and Xie Chengzi out of the godly palace.

On the other side, Zhang Ruochen had rushed to Nine Heavenly Maiden. Seeing the horrific power wielded by the saint kings from Heaven Field, Zhang Ruochen still remained calm. He shot a glance at Princess White Li and said, “Give me some power.”

Princess White Li shook her body and showed up behind Zhang Ruochen, waving her palms.

Zhang Ruochen took out the Time and Space Secret Guide, and countless silver light screens showed up, forming a multidimensional space, enveloping all the monks from Kunlun’s Field.

Gong Ziyan was dazed and yelled, “Oh no! Zhang Ruochen’s true intent is to save all the monks from Kunlun’s Field. Stop him!”

“Let’s go!” Zhang Ruochen yelled.

After the silver light blinked, Zhang Ruochen and the monks from Kunlun’s Field all vanished from the godly palace.

Boom!

The attacks all hit the godly palace, which released tremendous saint power ripples, overpowering the saint kings from Heaven Field.

Gong Ziyan was dumbfounded seeing the empty godly palace and mumbled, “Impossible… Impossible… Zhang Ruochen is only a fourth-step saint king. How did he perform a spatial move with so many monks at the same time? Could it be… Did you use that book? What is that valuable?”

Gong Ziyan recalled the silver book Zhang Ruochen had in his hands.

“Damn it…”

Gong Ziyan immediately realized what was going to happen. He was shocked and shouted at the saint kings in the godly palace, “Quick! Quick! Get out of the godly palace now!”

Zhang Ruochen had left the godly palace with the monks from Kunlun’s Field, but those from Heaven Field were still inside.

The godly palace was nothing but a prison now.

They used to be the hunters of the monks from Kunlun’s Field, but now, the situation did a one-eighty and they’d become the prey.
