Zi Chen walked out with an expressionless face, but he was still very surprised. [There are almost all the books I want to read. It is more stable and updates faster than ordinary websites. It has no ads in all text.]
There were far more people than he expected. In this village where few people are usually seen, it seemed as if everyone had returned today.
Wherever you look, most of the villagers are watching the excitement with their arms folded, and there are only a dozen or so people who are mainly looking for trouble.
The leader of them is the old man of the Hot family, said to be named Hotdis. Next to him is the still weak Hot Tommy. After seeing Zi Chen appear, his eyes also showed a strong look of resentment.
.
"Zi Chen, today is the day you die! If you hand over the Holy Black Crystal, you can be spared!" He said coldly to Zi Chen. Although he looked weak, his cold words seemed full of energy.
"Just you?" Zi Chen smiled disdainfully, with a flash of sarcasm in his eyes.
In his hand, he held the long sheathed sword tightly. As long as the sheath was in his hand, he had full confidence.
Seeing Zi Chen tightening the scabbard in his hand, the expression on Hothomie's face changed, and he subconsciously stepped back. He had heard that Zi Chen killed three miners with three swords, so in such a battle,
The force is definitely not something he can resist.
Standing aside, saying harsh words and swearing in secret was the limit of what he could do.
Those in the audience did not laugh at Hotthomme's behavior. Compared with these people, Hotthomme was just a child, and a very weak child at that.
Just as he stepped back, those people all stepped forward.
"Come on if you're not afraid of death!" The old man said indifferently with the pickaxe put back across his chest.
I don’t know if that was the reason why he said this, but just after he finished speaking, I saw many people in the crowd who were watching the show with their arms folded suddenly walking over.
When these people walk, their aura is no different than that of ordinary miners. Their faces are somewhat ferocious, which shows that they are usually brave people who fight.
Moreover, among the few people who walked out, several of them held weapons in their hands.
Zi Chen has been in this world for a long time, and he knows very well that in this world, having weapons represents combat power.
In the blink of an eye, the number of people exceeded twenty, and there were eight people with weapons. This did not include Hotdis and Hothomie who did not take out weapons.
Among these people, the old man can fight to a draw with a weapon-wielding being, and can barely block two people.
This situation is very unfavorable to the two of them, and no one thinks highly of them.
…
As the news of a huge Holy Black Crystal spread, almost all the villagers in the nearby villages knew about it, so they chose to waste a day and come here to see the situation, join in the fun, and see if there was anything missing.
More and more people gathered around. In addition to Hott Tommy, the other four people from the Hott family who came to this world this time also came. They were all followed by someone, but they did not come forward.
Looking at the situation in front of them, there was absolutely no need for them to take action.
Jiatu Huangtu also appeared early, and beside him Jiatu Mingtu and three others also arrived. They looked at the venue with incomprehensible expressions. Only Jiatu Huangtu's face was full of worry.
"Boy, hand over the Holy Black Crystal or die!"
After everyone in the group appeared, Hotdis spoke with a cold voice.
The old man didn't speak. Obviously at this moment, he didn't know how to choose. Fortunately, he stopped choosing and let Zi Chen make his own decision. He was willing to follow whatever decision he made.
Faced with this situation, in everyone's opinion, Zi Chen would make a very wise choice.
Zi Chen looked at Hothomie, smiled softly, and said: "Although I look younger, I am not stupid. On the contrary, I am very smart, many times smarter than the idiot next to you. I can see from your eyes
I saw the murderous intention in you, and I believe that even if you take out the Holy Black Crystal, you will still choose to kill me."
A flash of surprise flashed in Hotdis's eyes, he didn't expect the other party's observation skills to be so keen.
He really had no intention of letting the two of them go. Even if he took away the Holy Black Crystal, the two of them would die. The previous words were just the opening remarks before the battle.
"Come on! See if you can get the Black Crystal from my hand today!"
Zi Chen slowly raised the scabbard in his hand and put his right hand on the handle. If he were facing so many holy kings in the outside world, he would definitely turn around and run away, but in this world, these holy kings
He is no different from a mortal, he is qualified to fight.
Others watched the show with their arms folded. In their opinion, Zi Chen was simply seeking death by overestimating his abilities.
"Stop, isn't it just a piece of Holy Black Crystal? It's just for you. Why do you need to be aggressive?"
Just when the two sides were about to take action, a low shout rang out, and Emperor Jiatu was seen breaking free from the blacksmith's shackles and running over there.
He came to Zi Chen, turned to look at Hotdis and said, "Don't you just want the Holy Wujing? I'll give it to you."
Hotdis glanced at the Emperor Jiatu, then turned to look at the ugly blacksmith not far away, and turned back and said: "Little baby, you have nothing to do here, get out of the way. Today we want the Holy Wujing, this
We also want the lives of these two guys!"
"Is it necessary to kill him?"
Emperor Jiatu asked again, but all he got in return was ridicule.
"Come on then!"
He took out a dagger from his sleeve, made a fist with one hand and held the dagger in the other, and placed it across his chest, obviously intending to fight.
The blacksmith's face was ashen as he walked towards this side. Such a thing was not something they could interfere with.
A palm fell on Jiatu Huangtu's shoulder. The latter turned around and saw Zi Chen. Zi Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your help this time, but this is just a personal grudge between us. Please step away.
"
"Aren't we friends? How can we retreat at this time?" Jiatu Huangtu shook his head and said firmly.
This sentence touched Zi Chen a lot. He said: "Of course we are friends, but I don't have the bad habit of letting my friends die. They are just a bunch of trash. Believe me, I am destined to become a big shot!
"
Jiatu Huangtu believed that Zi Chen would be a big shot in the future, but the premise was that Zi Chen could not die. But from the moment, it seemed that Zi Chen had no chance of survival. Jiatu Huangtu shook his head and refused to move away, but what happened next was...
He had no choice but to see the blacksmith and a member of the Jiatu family come forward, one carrying the Jiatu Emperor's figure on the left and the other on his back, and then walked away.
Looking at the struggling Jiatu Emperor, Zi Chen looked at the old man in front of him and said: "Old man, you go back to the door and guard our Holy Wujing. You don't need to take action in this battle!"
The old man turned back and looked at Zi Chen in confusion.
"I'm used to fighting alone, and I'm used to using my own way to reason with others. You'll be in the way. Although you are an old-timer, your combat power is really too weak."
Of course the old man understood the meaning of Zi Chen's words. The other party just didn't want him to be in danger. He was asked to stay behind because once Zi Chen died in the battle, the old man could take out the Holy Wujing to save his life.
Hotdis must kill the two of them, mainly because of Zi Chen, because Hottomi and others who came here knew very well what potential Zi Chen had.
"If I can't even protect you, old man, what's the point of my life?" The old man shook his head and said.
"You should know that I don't need protection! On the Star of Life, people like me are the ones who don't need protection the least."
"I told you two, don't act like you are parting from each other. Soon you two will be reunited underground." A man holding a dagger looked at the two and said.
With a firm look in his eyes, he signaled the old man to retreat. Zi Chen stepped forward holding the scabbard, looking at the twenty or so people in front of him, and said calmly: "Everyone, because you are new here and have no reputation, you are being bullied. So this time,
I plan to kill people to establish my authority. I, Zi Chen, am here to promise you that I will not let anyone stand in front of me. Today, either I die or you die!"
His words were calm and his expression was calm, without any pretense or threat, as if he was describing a very simple thing.
Those people in the distance looked at Zi Chen in front of them, and for some reason, an inexplicable chill arose in their hearts, which made them shiver.
The expressions of the twenty-odd people in front of them have also undergone some changes. Facing the current situation, they are still so calm. They are either fools or madmen.
Obviously, the other party is the latter.
Under everyone's attention, Zi Chen put his right hand on the handle of the knife and slowly pulled out the handle. A broken knife with flashing black light appeared in everyone's sight.
Opposite Zi Chen, others were also ready to fight, holding either weapons or other things that could hit people in their hands.
The old man sighed and stepped back.
Zi Chen took a few steps forward, and the people in front spread out, surrounding Zi Chen.
Zi Chen stood in the center, with a scabbard in his left hand and a broken knife in his right hand, alert to the surroundings.
The people around him were staring at Zi Chen.
The atmosphere was dull and depressing. Everyone was staring ahead, watching the upcoming battle without saying a word.
"kill!"
The word "kill" came from Hotdis's mouth, and those who surrounded Zi Chen began to attack Zi Chen.
A sharp black sword stabbed directly towards the door facing Zi Chen. Zi Chen stumbled and dodged the sword.
At the same time, his figure turned again, and another attack passed by his body.
"clang!"
In his left hand, the scabbard was raised, and a long sword that fell on his head was blocked by the scabbard. There was a clanging sound and sparks flying everywhere.
The powerful force shook Zi Chen's feet unsteadily, and he subconsciously retreated.
Behind him, a short sword stabbed directly towards his back.
As if there were eyes behind him, when Zi Chen retreated, his body rotated with the help of force, and the scabbard blocked the dagger first.
The owner of the dagger was knocked away along with his weapon.
More attacks came towards Zi Chen.
Zi Chen's expression remained unchanged, and he instantly leaned back and bent over. These attacks rubbed against his body, gathered above him, and then dispersed.
Facing many attacks, Zi Chen continued to dodge, blocking back and forth with the scabbard in his hand. As for the broken sword in his right hand, he never made a cut.
"boom!"
A long black stick passed through the attacks and hit Zi Chen's chest. The powerful force exploded, causing Zi Chen's body to retreat involuntarily.
Behind Zi Chen, a man holding a pickaxe looked at Zichen and smiled ferociously, preparing to hit Zichen's head with the pickaxe.
Zi Chen, who was unsteady, suddenly turned around at this moment, with a pair of dark eyes, calm and indifferent.
The Broken Sword, which had not made any move, was slashed at this moment.
