Chapter 1030: Compensation after the Defeat
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The earth was in chaos. Layers of land crumbled, and huge cracks crawled like pythons, showing the destruction that had laid waste to the place. At this time, the area was still in shocked silence, and all eyes stared at the seriously injured figure on the ground in the distance.
Who would have expected that Golden Sky Prime, who was originally considered the most powerful individual there, would unexpectedly lose at Mu Chen’s hands… He was a Seventh Grade Sovereign at his peak. Even those supreme talents of the top Divine Beasts Clan would find him challenging, but now, he had lost to Mu Chen, who was only a Sixth Grade Sovereign? Not only were Golden Break and his group in disbelief, but even Han Shan was utterly shocked at what had just transpired.
Although they had never underestimated Mu Chen, the greatest expectation in their hearts was that they hoped Mu Chen could stabilize the situation. Even if he could not defeat Golden Sky Prime, as long as he could entangle him in a fight, it would show strength that would frighten the other party. In that case, the Golden Lion Clan and the Sirius Clan would not dare to easily monopolize the treasures of the Treasure Beast.
As for defeating Golden Sky Prime and driving him out of the battle, that was something they had never thought of.
Amid shocked glances, Mu Chen’s figure gradually descended from the sky. His eyes glanced indifferently at the embarrassed figure in the distance as he said nonchalantly, “You still have a breath in you, and you want to play dead?”
In the distance, Golden Sky Prime, who had collapsed in the gully, finally moved and then supported himself. He was in a state of embarrassment. His face was deathly pale, and the spiritual energy around his body was weak. Fear emerged as he glanced at Mu Chen.
With his powerful physique, he had not been killed by Mu Chen on the spot, but he still had very serious injuries. Although he knew that Mu Chen’s current state was not any good, either, it was still better than his.
Golden Sky Prime wiped at the blood smeared on the corners of his mouth, and his voice was somber. “Hah, I didn’t expect that I would fail in something I was confident in.”
Mu Chen smiled faintly, but there was no warmth in his eyes. Instead, murderous intention flowed out from him. Before that, Golden Sky Prime had not shown mercy and was full of murderous intent, so at the moment, Mu Chen did not intend to let him live, if possible.
Beside them, Golden Break, Huo Yang, and the others had retreated beside Golden Sky Prime in an embarrassed state. At this time, their faces were all panicked, no longer domineering like before. With Golden Sky Prime’s defeat, the situation had obviously been completely reversed.
Nine Nether, Han Shan, Ink Blade, and the others swept to Mu Chen’s side. Nine Nether and the others knew of Mu Chen’s prowess, but powerful figures of the Demonic Rhino Clan such as Han Shan were full of awe and fear. Even Han Shan, who was immensely powerful, glanced at Mu Chen with admiration and respect.
“It’s all thanks to Brother Mu this time.” Han Shan sighed. If it weren’t for Mu Chen who had turned the tide, they would have had to flee like beaten dogs. As for the Treasure Beast, they wouldn’t have had a chance at all.
“What should we do with them?” Nine Nether looked at Mu Chen, and then the corners of her eyes glanced across at Golden Sky Prime and the others. A murderous glint flashed in her eyes. If possible, she didn’t mind annihilating all of them to prevent future trouble.
As they sensed the murderous intent in Nine Nether’s eyes, Golden Break and his group’s expressions could not help but change. The spiritual energy around them surged, and they were on high alert.
“Mu Chen, don’t think that just because you have defeated me, we will be at your mercy!” Golden Sky Prime said as anger surged in his eyes.
Mu Chen smiled as he asked, “Otherwise, what?”
Golden Sky Prime glanced down as he replied coldly, “If it comes to that, you may be able to live, but believe me, someone on your side will perish with me.” Hostility was apparent in his words. Although he had now lost to Mu Chen, Golden Sky Prime was still a formidable figure, and his ruthlessness caused some to fear.
Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed. He did not suspect Golden Sky Prime’s words in the slightest. If he really wanted to devour them all, he would have to pay a price.
Han Shan and others’ expressions changed, as they understood that Golden Sky Prime did have the right to say that. He may not have been able to do anything to Mu Chen but in a desperate fight, killing them would not be difficult.
The atmosphere was stiff. After a few moments, Mu Chen suddenly laughed. “You are right, but I can hardly believe that a man who was suppressed by momentum in the end will really have the courage to give up everything and fight to the death.”
In the last confrontation, Mu Chen had completely suppressed Golden Sky Prime’s momentum. This was because Mu Chen was more fierce than he was and dared to give up his life, whereas Golden Sky Prime did not, so his momentum was suppressed as Mu Chen sensed his flaws and defeated him completely. Therefore, Golden Sky Prime cherished his life and did not have the courage to fight to his death, which was why Mu Chen had doubts about his threat.
Golden Sky Prime’s face turned steely with rage and paled alternately as he finally gritted his teeth and said, “If there is really no way out, then I can only fight to the death!” His words unwittingly conveyed retreat, implying to Mu Chen that he could tolerate it, as long as they didn’t drive him to a dead end.
