Chapter 1798: Repayment in Kind
Qian Benying covered her face. Gangstantin wearing a little vest? As if!
Just imagining that fat, muscular jelly with an axe, wearing a white little vest, was already mental pollution!
(≖_≖٥)"Is it possible... you stabbed the wrong bag?"
Jiangnan reached up, pulled off the little vest, tossed it aside, then kicked the sack, looking exasperated.
(￢益￢ꐦ)"Why are you joining in the fun? Seriously, making me waste my effort, you deserve a thousand deaths!"
[Resentment from Vivian +1003!]
Jiangnan was such a jerk! You were clearly the one who stabbed the wrong bag, okay?
Don't you feel any guilt at all?
I didn't have a white flag on me, so I had to tear off my little vest and wave it as a white flag! Luckily it was white, otherwise I'd have to... ahem~
Carl snorted with a laugh:
(￢´৺`￢)"Go fool the ghosts. You've been exposed, and you're still acting? Bose bodies don't have such low-grade things as blood!"
"Threatening me? You think you're qualified?"
Jiangnan's eyes widened: "Oh? You're getting cocky? I just stabbed the wrong one. The other one is definitely it!"
As he spoke, he grabbed another sack and stabbed the Godslayer Blade straight into the opening with a "puchi"!
The dull sack immediately struggled violently!
[Resentment from Gangstantin +1003!]
[Resentment from Gang...]
Jiangnan grinned. This time he had stabbed the right one!
Just a moment ago, Gangstantin was secretly laughing, mocking Jiangnan for stabbing the wrong bag and making Broken Brow Vivian take the knife for him.
Now the knife had fallen on him—and he was really getting stirred up!
Gangstantin vomited a stream of jelly, clutching his head and shrieking in terror:
(#⊙།༥⊙།།།)"Lord Carl! It's really me! Your strongest blade! Save me! Save me! He's really stabbing me!"
Despair was creeping into his voice. He was now no different from a fish on a chopping board!
Wasn't this punishment a bit too cruel?
But his voice couldn't get out at all!
Carl sneered: (✡‾́～‾́)"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! A noble being like a Bose body—how could it be trapped by a mere shabby sack?"
"Humans are masters of tricks. You just fooled me once, and now you want to bluff me again?"
But Jiangnan was completely unfazed:
╮(•́ω•̀)╭"You can try contacting him, or wait until I stab him to death and show you his broken horn stubs."
"But by then it'll be too late. Gangstantin's death will be because you didn't lift a finger. Tsk tsk~ So even the life of a high-ranking Bose isn't that valuable after all."
"Don't call me cruel. The World Purification Plan reduced Blue Star's population by more than half."
"I've seen hell on earth. This is nothing. I'm just collecting a little interest."
Carl's eyes flickered. Could it really be in the sack?
Jiangnan's fearless attitude made him uncertain.
But even if it was—so what? How could he, the God of Stars, be threatened by a human?
"Is it real or not? I'll find out soon enough when I chop off your head and open the sack myself!"
As he spoke, his Deep Blue Negative Zero grew even fiercer, and the polar icefield had already been completely destroyed.
Xiao Chuihuo wiped the blood dripping from his nose, eyes full of ferocity.
(☄益☄ꐦ)"I don't believe you can suppress me! Bai Kou, lass, expand your Snow Country. Leave the rest to me!"
Bai Kou nodded excitedly: (❅･᷄◡･᷅)"Mm-hmm!"
Then she began to fully activate her Extreme Cold Snow Country. Even Jiangnan was stunned.
Wasn't it the limit of three-domain fusion? Couldn't fuse four?
Was this old bastard planning to...
Carl's expression stiffened, then he sneered:
(✡͡°৺°)"Ha~ What? You want to fuse another domain? Four domains together? You really are delusional."
"Extreme cold and extreme heat—conflicting attributes. How will you fuse them?"
Xiao Chuihuo said calmly: "How do you know it's impossible? The saddest thing in this world isn't failure, but never daring to try."
"Every path I've walked so far was carved out through countless attempts and failures."
"Three domains couldn't suppress you, so I'll use four. I've weathered ninety-plus years of storms and hardships. How could I fall here?"
In the next instant, under Jiangnan's stunned gaze, a Glorious Sun rose high in the sky, while Bai Kou's Extreme Cold Snow Country expanded to its limit.
It didn't merge with the Glorious Sun, but their auras gradually intermingled.
The blazing heat of the Glorious Sun was completely retracted, radiating not a hint of temperature.
It was like a sun without any heat at all.
At the same time, everything frozen solid in the Extreme Cold Snow Country began to slowly shatter and annihilate.
It broke the limit of absolute zero! The temperature kept dropping!
It was now no less than Carl's Deep Blue Negative Zero, and it was expanding wildly.
The glaciers that had melted in the polar icefield began to refreeze under this extreme cold.
Bai Kou covered her mouth, utterly incredulous.
(❅ﾟლﾟ)
Carl's pupils contracted violently:
∑(་口་✡)"No! Impossible! Surpassing absolute zero? The Snow Country and the Glorious Sun coexisting?"
Shouldn't fire and water be incompatible?
Xiao Chuihuo sneered: "Why impossible? All things in the universe share the same origin and have common points."
"When water freezes into ice, it releases heat. To achieve absolute cold, you have to expel all heat from the surrounding space."
"The Glorious Sun absorbs all the heat from the Extreme Cold Snow Country, raising its own temperature. Because the heat is drained away, the Snow Country cools infinitely."
"What is useless to others is a treasure to me. We each get what we need. Is that so hard?"
Odin: ???
The hell it isn't hard! How did you manage to converge the heat radiation of the Glorious Sun to the extreme, not interfering with the Snow Country at all, and still absorb its heat?!
Xiao Chuihuo's eyes were full of excitement: "Are you ready to try a combined attack from four Transcendents?"
"Four Domain Fusion • Winter Sunshine!"
In an instant, boundless extreme cold spread out, clashing head-on with Carl's domain!
They were almost evenly matched!
At the same time, the Glorious Sun in the sky wasn't idle either. One after another, enormous blazing red fireballs turned into a meteor fire rain, piercing through the Snow Country and slamming into Carl's domain!
They transformed into giant fire lotuses, blooming to their fullest, emitting astonishing high temperatures.
On one side, it cooled Bai Kou's Snow Country; on the other, it heated up Carl's side.
In no time, the gap between the two sides was leveled.
Now it was Carl's turn to be overwhelmed.
Carl was fighting one against four. Using the domain in this way consumed an astonishing amount of energy. He began to turn transparent again.
He even had to open a Dimensional Gate to decompose and absorb the giant fireballs Xiao Chuihuo was throwing at him.
His face was extremely ugly, and his body was slowly being forced back.
Jiangnan clicked his tongue: "Good grief! That old geezer really learned some middle school physics, huh? Must have flipped through a lot of textbooks?"
He remembered last time it couldn't be fused.
How long had it been? And he'd already figured out the method? And he'd even secretly come up with a name?
Continuously breaking new ground—Old Xiao had been doing this his whole life.
With his own actions, his whole life, he was interpreting the true meaning of the word "Pioneer."
Humanity was truly fortunate to have the Old Fire God.
Carl gritted his steel teeth: "This is what's so annoying about humans. Infinite possibilities, is that it?"
Back then, Jiang Fan was like this; now this old geezer was too.
There was always one or two who stood out.
If he wanted to fight a war of attrition, he simply couldn't hold out. Xiao Chuihuo and the others had already started eating durian pulp.
Eventually, Carl was forced back into the Star Palace's protective shield.
"Still trying to save humanity? You think you're destined to be the savior?"
"I'll prove it to you. Humanity is not worth saving. Slavery is carved into your bones, flows through your blood."
"Blue Star will become a Star Ruin, turned into a tool race for the myriad races. Countless stars twinkle in the starry sky, but not a single one will be the starlight of humanity."
"The Spirit Medium will be mine! I, Carl, will not stop here! Your will, your hope—I will crush them! Time will prove everything!"
Jiangnan stared coldly at Carl, his fists clenched tightly.
"Then just wait and see. Humanity will become the most brilliant star in this dazzling starry sky!"
"Thousands of stars will not be able to outshine it!"
Carl squinted: "Good! Very ambitious. So, do you want to start a war with us?"
Jiangnan shook his head: "The war started over three thousand years ago. We've never won, but this time, we want to win."
Carl snorted disdainfully and said nothing. His gaze just fell on Jiang Jing in Jiang Ning's arms, flickering.
Hmm? Wait...
That Bose holding her originally had two horns? Something seemed off, didn't it?
But Jiangnan and the others had already turned to leave. After all, this operation had been unprecedentedly successful, with enormous gains.
Carl raised his chin: "This time, what you took from me, I'll take back double from humanity later. Just wait and see."
Jiangnan paused mid-step, then turned around, grabbed the sack, opened the mouth, and shook it vigorously.
With a few "clangs," two glazed horn stubs and a silver bracelet fell out of the sack.
The moment Carl saw those two horn stubs, his expression froze.
Lai Yin's face changed drastically: "Lord Carl, those... those are Gangstantin's horn stubs. He—"
Was it really Gangstantin in the sack?
Jiangnan bent down, picked up the two horn stubs, and stuffed the bracelet into his pocket.
He hadn't been idle just now. The Godslayer Blade had never stopped. Trapped in the sack space with no ability to resist, Gangstantin had been chopped to pieces and killed dead by the Godslayer Blade!
A thousand cuts—the same fate. He died in thick despair.
Jiangnan said calmly: "I forgot to tell you. I wasn't lying. Gangstantin was really in my hands, but now he's gone."
"Take these two broken horns back—a little keepsake. After all, he was your strongest blade."
With that, he tossed the two broken horns toward Carl.
Carl's face was extremely grim, but he instinctively raised his hand to catch them.
Just as they were about to land in his hand, a faint spatial fluctuation occurred.
The broken horns were suddenly displaced, and a Diamond Giant Durian with its stem already pressed dropped into Carl's hand.
Jiangnan smirked: (･᷄ὢ･᷅)"Oh, come on—you actually caught it? You think I'd really return this treasure? Dream on!"
"I'll take it back to carve into beads for a bracelet. Consider it revenge for Brother Guan Tai. After all, you didn't even leave him a complete corpse."
From the moment he caught Gangstantin, Jiangnan never intended to let him live.
He didn't want to kill him secretly; he wanted to kill him right in front of Carl—that was truly satisfying.
Repayment in kind! It wasn't just women who held grudges; Jiangnan did too.
These blood debts, Jiangnan would collect them one by one.
As he spoke, he was already walking away.
[Resentment from Carl +1007!]
[Resentment from...]
Carl's eyes bulged: (ꐦ°᷄益°᷅)"Jiangnan! You son of a—"
"Boom!"
Diamonds and spikes flew everywhere! Durian pulp and excrement were one color!
Σ_(꒪ཀ꒪」∠)_"Ugh—ugh, ugh! Jiangnan! You ~%?…;#*’☆!"
[Resentment from Carl...]
