Chapter 2073: Surrounded (1/2)
The Godkings who had pursued Zi Yun at first and were shaken off after she burned her essence blood had finally all caught up. There were fifty to sixty Godking, and every single one of them radiated with powerful presences as they stood in the surroundings. They encircled them, trapping them inside.
Moreover, as these people pursued, they rapidly called for their friends, clansmen, seniors, or juniors who were in the Neptunean Divine Palace as well, gathering their strength such that they were more and more Godkings gathering from all directions.
The Godkings who surrounded them rapidly increased, forming an unbreachable encirclement around them, trapping Jian Chen and Kai Ya with Zi Yun and so on inside.
They all stared at Zi Yun. Even though some of them originated from large organisations, they were still unable to resist the enticement of a Chaotic Prime’s legacy.
However, none of them dared to attack first. They maintained a certain distance from one another. As they stared at Zi Yun, they were also cautious of the people around them.
Jian Chen slowly looked around and frowned. An assassin with the Laws of Darkness had attacked them before, which wasted time. Afterwards, due to what happened with Xiao Man, they wasted some more time, causing them to lose their perfect opportunity to escape, and they fell into an encirclement.
Jian Chen looked at Xiao Man as he felt secretly troubled. With his and Kai Ya’s strength, he was confident that they could kill their way out of the encirclement as long as supreme experts of the Godkings’ Throne did not appear. However, he was unable to approach Xiao Man at all due to the protection from the mysterious power, so it was naturally impossible for him to take her with him.
He could not just abandon Xiao Man there all by herself while he and Kai Ya killed their way out with Zi Yun, right?
At this moment, another few Godkings flew over from the distance and joined the encirclement. However, when they saw Jian Chen, they immediately became overjoyed, “Jian Chen, I never thought you’d be here. We’ve looked so hard for you.”
The surrounding Godkings were all surprised when they heard the name, but they became overjoyed as well soon after.
“What? He’s Jian Chen? The guy who’s rumored to have taken a large amount of God Tier heavenly resources from the Divine Medicinal Garden?”
“He’s actually Jian Chen? Hahaha, looks like luck triumphs hard work. We’ve actually found him so easily.”
“It’s said that Jian Chen and a group of people dug up a quarter of all the heavenly resources in the Divine Medicinal Garden. Tsktsk, there are over a thousand heavenly resources in there, so a quarter of that is over two hundred…”
Although only a select few of the surrounding Godkings had seen the image projected from the past, the fact that a quarter of the entire Divine Medicinal Garden had been emptied spread throughout the entire ninth floor like wildfire. It reached the ears of everyone in a short amount of time, so everyone gained a deep impression of the name ‘Jian Chen.’ The only exception would be those people in secluded cultivation.
Immediately, everyone shifted their gazes from Zi Yun to Jian Chen. They all showed greedy expressions without putting any effort to hide it. They all seemed like they were looking at a huge piece of treasure.
Some people treated Jian Chen with even more importance that Zi Yun. Indeed, a Chaotic Prime’s legacy interested them all, but there was only one of it after all. No one was confident about obtaining it.
