This scene left Chu Yue Li and the others stunned, even the distant Mo Yun Gu Bi changed color in shock.
Had the Saint of the City Dragon really been killed by Qin Chen?
How could he, how could he dare to do this?
Splash!
Qin Chen raised his hand, and countless treasures and materials from the Saint of the City Dragon, such as armor and spatial treasures, fell into his hands.
Looking at the flesh of the Saint of the City Dragon turning to ashes, Saroya licked his lips, feeling somewhat disappointed.
Although the body of the Saint of the City Dragon, having lost the heart of the great emperor, no longer contained much nutrients and energy worth absorbing, even a mosquito's leg is still meat.
To be annihilated so directly was rather wasteful.
“Sigh, I don't even know what my lord is thinking. Even if he can't stand directly devouring a cultivator, he could have cut him up and slowly roasted him for a meal. A peak great emperor like him, once cooked, would undoubtedly be fragrant and delicate, a true delicacy of the cosmic sea.” Saroya felt an emptiness in his heart.
Such a good ingredient—sigh...
“You...”
In the void, Mo Yun Gu Bi looked at Qin Chen, his eyes flickering, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, it just turned into a sigh: “Alas, Qin Xiao You, I truly don't know how to advise you.”
Mo Yun Gu Bi shook his head, looking despondent.
“Forget it, forget it. Our Southern Origin City is likely to face this disaster. If the Black Dragon Society dares to come, I can only try to negotiate and resolutely protect the citizens of our Southern Origin City. Just don’t know if the Black Dragon Society will listen to me.”
Mo Yun Gu Bi's face was pale, full of sorrow, as he cupped his hands to Qin Chen, “Young friend, I must take my leave. The Black Dragon Society will likely come to our Southern Origin City in the near future, you should be prepared. If there are any elders, hurry and let them take you away.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yun Gu Bi glanced at Saroya and immediately left.
“Let’s go!” Mo Yun Que and the others shot Qin Chen a deep, resentful glance before turning to leave, anxiety written all over their faces.
Having killed the Saint of the City Dragon, the Black Dragon Society would definitely not let it go easily.
The Lord of the Sky Outside Tower and the others also looked deeply at Qin Chen before turning to leave. They were beginning to feel too afraid to stay in Southern Origin City; they might get caught in the crossfire any day now.
Other powerful beings hurriedly turned to leave as well, with some lone travelers not even staying to gather their belongings before flying towards the outskirts of Southern Origin City.
Everyone knew that the Black Dragon Society would not easily let Southern Origin City off the hook after such a significant incident. Even with numerous rules restricting attacks on neutral cities in the Southern Cosmic Sea, after such a huge development, how could the Black Dragon Society simply let it go? Even if there were restraints, they would certainly find ways to kill Qin Chen.
Leaving Southern Origin City and waiting for the situation to settle down was clearly the best choice.
Among the crowd, only the Eternal Pavilion Master actively flew towards Qin Chen.
“Pavilion Master.” The manager of the Eternal Pavilion looked fearful, following the Eternal Pavilion Master’s side, seemingly wanting to persuade her not to approach, but didn’t dare to voice it out loud.
Chu Yue Li approached Qin Chen, her previous frivolity diminishing substantially, replaced with a hint of awe and an inexplicable glow in her eyes. She gently opened her red lips, “Young Master Qin.”
“Master Chu.” Qin Chen smiled at her, “Everyone is avoiding me like a venomous snake; what, is Master Chu not afraid?”
Chu Yue Li was taken aback.
She hadn’t expected that in such a situation, Qin Chen could still smile. His relaxed demeanor and tone, the confidence in his brows and gaze, seemed to completely disregard the death of the Saint of the City Dragon, penetrating deep into Chu Yue Li's heart in that instant.
