Chapter 1263 The Cost of Helping (1/2)

When Zhou Yuan's voice resounded, the many battle platforms on the Ancestral Spirit Mountain fell silent, followed by many astonished gazes from afar shifting towards his direction.

The astonishment on their faces uncontrollably deepened when they saw who spoke.

“Zhou Yuan?”

Many Wanshou Heaven experts were surprised. Zhou Yuan had been coldly watching from beyond the Ancestral Spirit Mountain, but many people were indifferent to this because they believed the Wanshou Heaven wouldn’t be weaker than the Evil Beast Clan.

Moreover, given how Ai Zhi previously treated Zhou Yuan, everyone knew he would be upset and so almost everyone chose to ignore his existence.

Therefore, the fact that Zhou Yuan spoke in such a troubled situation drew even more attention.

Even Chi Bei was slightly taken aback, but he immediately locked his gaze from afar on Zhou Yuan. He narrowed his eyes when he saw Zhou Yuan’s face.

“Hunyuan Heaven’s Zhou Yuan?” he cried out in surprise.

He recognized Zhou Yuan.

But that wasn’t surprising because Zhou Yuan had defeated a sacred heaven pride from the Sacred Race in Guyuan Heaven, which must have stirred up waves within the Sacred Race. As an elite expert in the Evil Beast Clan, it was normal that Chi Bei knew about Zhou Yuan.

“Interesting, I didn’t think a human would appear in Wanshou Heaven’s Dragon Spirit Utopia.”

Chi Bei chuckled, studying Zhou Yuan with his cold gaze. “Although you have made a name for yourself in Guyuan Heaven, aren’t you thinking too highly of yourself?

“Are you, a little junior who had just reached the Nascent Source stage, qualified to intervene?”

Zhou Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, smiled in response and said, “Jia Tu, a sacred heaven pride from the Sacred Race, also said the same thing as you in Guyuan Heaven. Why do you all have the same boring lines?”

Chi Bee looked at Zhou Yuan with undisguised killing intent in his eyes and the corners of his lips twitching. ”It seems you also want to come up and play? Then come, I might be rewarded greatly if I bring your head back to the Sacred Race.”

His expression gradually grew more ferocious as Genesis Qi gathered around his body.

Many Wanshou Heaven experts’ eyes lit up. Zhou Yuan is planning to accept the challenge? Although it’s unknown whether he could win against Chi Bei, his courage will surely boost morale.

But Zhou Yuan stretched his waist, saying, “I won't go,” in response to Chi Bei’s challenge.

Many Wanshou Heaven experts’ stiffened and even Chi Bei’s lips twitched. The momentum he gathered fluctuated and he looked a little annoyed.

”I didn't think the Sacred Race would suffer a setback in Guyuan Heaven because of a coward?” Chi Bei sneered.

Zhou Yuan shook his head with a smile. ”Forget it, someone has warned me not to steal the limelight in the Dragon Spirit Utopia.”

There was silence on the Wanshou Heaven’s side and some people couldn’t stop their gaze from drifting over to Ai Zhi.

Ai Zhi's expression seemed a little stiff. How could he not hear the mockery in Zhou Yuan's tone? He had confidently warned Zhou Yuan to not intervene, but the situation had turned to such an embarrassing state. He couldn’t help feeling ashamed and angry.

Therefore, he uttered coldly, ”Zhou Yuan, even if you intervene, you can't change anything! So don't say such useless words!”

“You’re right.” Zhou Yuan smiled.

The corners of Ai Zhi's eyes twitched and he felt suffocated.

“Zhou Yuan…”

Another voice sounded from another seed battle platform—It was Ai Tuanzi’s.

While locked in a fierce battle with Chi Yuan, she could still divert her attention and cast a glance at Zhou Yuan. ”Zhou Yuan, what Ai Zhi did before was indeed narrow-minded, but the Sacred Race is the enemy of all-heavens. If possible, I really hope you can help.”

As her voice spread across the area, Ai Zhi's face turned a little livid and he wanted to refute, but he didn't say anything in the end because he had already chosen to avoid the battle.

Zhou Yuan lifted his head and said helplessly to Ai Tuanzi. ”You really think too highly of me. That guy is at the top level of the pseudo Law Domain stage, while I haven’t even reached the perfect Nascent Source stage.”
