Chapter 1983: Intense Confrontation
Jiangnan smiled: (◕͡°ก͡°) "Isn't there still 12.88 seconds? What's the rush? Hmm~ who to pick~"
He propped his chin with his hand, his gaze roaming freely across the scene!
Finally, his eyes landed on Huan Lou, and he flashed a brilliant smile!
(◕͡°͜ʖ͡°)☛ "Decided! I'll pick you!"
With that, he raised his hand and flung out Void Chains, wrapping around everyone in the booth!
Ye Yuan, Mo Mo, and the others hadn't even reacted yet!
As for Huan Lou, looking at Jiangnan, an inexplicable bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart!
Just as he was about to move—
The next moment, Jiangnan grinned:
☻ "Spatial Displacement!"
At the very instant the displacement occurred!
A bizarre, kaleidoscopic attack swept toward Jiangnan in a crescent shape!
It was a high-dimensional strike, so fast that almost no living being could react in time!
There was no warning whatsoever!
But Jiangnan had already displaced everyone in the booth beforehand!
Jiangnan in the booth vanished in an instant, replaced by a completely bewildered Huan Lou!
(⑉་⍸་⑉)?
Under these circumstances, there was no way to react, let alone dodge!
"Boom!"
Huan Lou's body exploded violently, decomposing into pure energy!
Even the entire booth disintegrated into nothingness!
The attack also slashed through the audience area below, killing tens of thousands of people!
Including the starry display platform in the center of the auction hall, which was split in two!
Ling Yin's face turned pale as she stared at the cleaved platform—the attack had practically grazed her!
!!!∑(°﹏°ノ)ノ
If it had been a bit closer, she would have died!
The sudden, ferocious attack stunned everyone!
The entire venue erupted in uproar!
Xing Luo stepped out of the void, holding the Holy Judgment Sword, his expression extremely gloomy!
Huan Lou's Divine Control body was blown apart on the spot!
A mass of humanoid chaotic energy appeared, its face incredibly grim!
"Jiangnan! Damn it! Xing Luo? What are you doing?"
Xing Luo's eyes were icy:
(✡‾᷄_‾᷅) "Nothing. I missed and struck the wrong target. Any objections?"
Huan Lou choked, unable to spit out a single word!
Right? What objections could he have? It was just a waste of a Divine Control body!
That damned Jiangnan—he dragged me in to take the hit?
Was it when we shook hands at the entrance? So that's why...
This kid is full of nothing but dirty tricks!
Xing Luo's killing intent flared. My high-dimensional strike, and he dodged it?
Was it because of that Apocalypse girl?
Otherwise, that one blow would have sent Jiangnan straight to death!
At this moment, the entire Tianyu Megamall was in chaos!
Someone had actually made a move on Ceasefire Day? And a heavy strike at that!
They'd even cut open the starry display platform!
Booth 666 had completely vanished. Was Jiangnan... dead?
When the crowd saw the newcomer, their hearts trembled even more!
It was the Holy Star Lord of the Bose Clan! Xing Luo?
But now, Xing Luo didn't care about anything else—he just wanted Jiangnan dead!
He had to kill him as fast as possible!
Xing Luo raised his sword to strike, but just then, the roof of Jiangnan's booth was sliced off by a spatial barrier!
Jiangnan stood there, holding a Dull Sack in one hand and a Godslayer Blade in the other!
The blade was already aimed at the sack's opening!
Behind him, ten Small Whips extended, each wrapped around a Dark Matter Star Explosive Bomb!
They were already in a ready-to-detonate state!
If Jiangnan confirmed detonation, they would explode immediately!
Jiangnan's eyes were ruthless:
"Come on! You want to kill me, don't you? Try making a move, just try?"
"Make one move against me, and I'll gut your son right now, then set off these ten Star Explosive Bombs! With the cumulative power, this entire Black Street won't be enough to withstand the blast!"
"Don't say I'm not faster than you! I have the Whisper of the Divine and Warp Speed! You know what I'm capable of! Even though you can one-shot me!"
"But if I die, every single person here will be my fucking funeral pyre! Including your son!"
At this moment, everyone's face turned white!
(๑ʘ̅дʘ̅๑)!
Holy shit! Holy shit! What the hell is going on?
Jiangnan is going to set off Star Explosive Bombs in Black Street? And ten of them at that?
How could someone of Xing Luo's status chase all the way here to personally kill Jiangnan?
Son? What the hell?
Is that Norman in the sack? Jiangnan caught Norman?
Pfft!
One shocking piece of news after another blew everyone's minds!
Right now, You Lulu and Lun Qin were still standing in their booth!
They stared at Jiangnan in horror, then crouched down, covering their heads and trembling in the corner!
୧(´-﹏-`；)୨୧(☍yi⁰。)୨
Is this guy insane? Is he actually going to blow it up?
If all ten go off together, no matter how fast you run, you're dead!
They came to an auction and ended up in danger of their lives?
Even Qiu Niao's face turned white. I really didn't praise you for nothing!
You just bought the Star Explosive Bombs, and now you're going to use them?
And you're planning to set them off in the Tianyu Megamall with millions of people?
Xing Luo's forehead bulged with veins!
(ꐦ◣yi◢ꐦ) "You dare!"
He took a step forward, raising his sword!
Jiangnan's eyes widened, pushing the ten Star Explosive Bombs forward, and thrust the Godslayer Blade into the Dull Sack!
At that moment, although the Dull Sack made no sound, it writhed violently!
(ꐦ°᷄yi°᷅) "At this point, what wouldn't I dare? I've got a worthless life to lose—it's not as precious as the life of Xing Luo's son!"
"Norman! Hear that? Your dad doesn't give a damn whether you live or die! I'm sorry, but if that's the case, I'll have to send you to death first!"
"Then detonate the bombs and take everyone to see my granny!"
By now, Norman had been changed into several sacks, but he was already marinated in the stench!
Screaming in pain from the Godslayer Blade's piercing!
(#)༎ຶД༎ຶ(#) "Dad! Save me! Please save me! I don't want to die!"
[From Norman: Resentment +1009!]
[From Norman...]
[From Xing Luo: Resentment +1009!]
Xing Luo's expression twisted, everything around him freezing and annihilating!
He didn't doubt whether Norman was really in the sack, because Karl had said Jiangnan had a way to catch Bose bodies with sacks!
That one strike failed to kill him—now it was harder to act!
(ꐦಠyiಠ) "Stop right there! If my son dies, you die too!"
Jiangnan squinted: "If I die, not only does your son die, but everyone goes with us! And I'll post all your dirty secrets on the Stellar Network!"
"Come on! Make a move!"
"I've wanted to see you for years! After crawling and scrambling all this time, I finally met you!"
"Would I dare show my face under your nose without some preparation?"
Xing Luo's expression froze, his aura flickering!
Behind him, figures of Bose bodies appeared—hundreds, thousands—all upper-class, with terrifying auras!
Honestly, Jiangnan had never seen so many Bose bodies in his life!
He could be killed at any moment, but Jiangnan felt no fear at all!
Instead, he felt his blood burning and boiling!
For over three thousand years of humanity, they had finally reached this point!
And this was exactly what he was doing. Jiangnan had already thrown his life away!
The atmosphere in the venue became extremely tense!
At that moment, Jiangnan faced off against over a thousand Bose bodies, fearless!
This kind of scene hadn't been seen in who knows how many years!
Jiangnan wasn't panicked, but the million buyers in the venue were panicking!
If Jiangnan died, he would definitely set off the Star Explosive Bombs before his death—how many of those present would survive?
He was clearly dragging everyone down with him!
The Insect Queen big-sister swallowed:
(๑‧̣̥̇ୖൠ҉̛ୖ) "Imp... impulsive actions are the devil. We can all sit down and talk things out! Why must it come to killing?"
Looking at the ten Star Explosive Bombs, Erdius's expression also soured!
Although he didn't want to speak for Jiangnan, he definitely didn't want to be blown up!
꒰ঌ(´-﹏-`٥)໒꒱ "Why not settle this privately? It's not appropriate to act here, is it?"
Yue Li's face was also pale:
↜(⃔っ⁰̷̴͈﹏⁰̷̴͈C)⃕ "If they really blow up today, a million people die, and Black Street is destroyed!"
"Once something like this happens, it's a major incident. It won't look good for the Bose Clan's reputation either, right?"
In reality, Yue Li was almost going crazy!
Heavens! How bold is Jiangnan? She was still curious how he would handle Norman's matter!
Who knew he'd actually captured Norman?
And he's directly confronting the Bose high-ups?
This matter was beyond her ability to solve. Yue Li had been frantically sending messages to Lord Noah through her tail!
Not only a few people were advising—others chimed in too!
Not because they wanted to help Jiangnan, but because they didn't want to be blown to bits!
They say a dying man speaks kindly!
But Jiangnan, a dying man, acts evilly!
He absolutely would do it!
Xing Luo squinted: "Since when does the Bose Holy Star need to bow to the whims of ten thousand races?"
"If it really blows up, it's Jiangnan who killed them. What does that have to do with my Holy Star?"
Everyone in the venue had ugly expressions. He really didn't care about anyone's life!
But what could they do? Faced with Xing Luo, they could only be angry but not speak out, completely helpless.
Wen Ge's face was also pale as he watched. He knew that once Jiangnan caught Norman, trouble would come sooner or later!
And it hadn't even reached noon—trouble had already fucking arrived!
He couldn't figure out why Jiangnan was doing this!
Wasn't this asking for death? You have to survive—if you die, my incense beads are really done for!
Yue Li forced a dry smile:
↜(⃔っ⌒ㅂ⌒C)⃕ "But the Black Mark Assembly is a tradition of Black Street, with a ceasefire today!"
"You came in and killed tens of thousands of people—that's against the rules. I know you're angry, and you can ignore Black Street's face!"
"But Black Street is Lord Noah's asset. By doing this, aren't you..."
Xing Luo snorted coldly:
(ya yi ya ꐦ) "Don't use Noah to pressure me! Just two words—it's not enough!"
"Is he Noah bigger, or is my Holy Law Council bigger? Is the Stellar Law bigger? Can he be bigger than heaven?"
"I'm going to kill Jiangnan today, no matter what! If Noah is dissatisfied, let him come talk to me personally!"
Yue Li's face was deathly pale, her back drenched in cold sweat!
She really had no way out!
Xing Luo's status crushed her until she couldn't breathe!
But just as Xing Luo finished speaking, above the megamall—
Infinite dark matter converged wildly, forming a humanoid shape in the blink of an eye!
Its aura was terrifying beyond measure—just the undulating dark matter energy fluctuations alone made everyone unable to breathe!
A pair of eyes stared at Xing Luo!
"Is it not enough? You asked me to come, so I'm here!"
"Making trouble on the day of my Black Street's Black Mark Assembly, ruining my business? Do you have no respect for me, Noah?"
Xing Luo's expression turned ugly!
"Noah? You..."
Noah's eyes widened, dark matter roiling around him: "What did you call me? Is Di Chou's clan junior so lacking in manners?"
"You may have some skill, but you haven't reached Star Devourer yet—you've only half stepped over! Don't you think you're overestimating your position?"
"Before you have the power to destroy an entire star system, when facing a Star Devourer, you use a respectful title! The Bose Clan is no exception!"
"Di Chou can call me by name! You are not qualified! Even if this is just a Thought Clone of mine, I am still a Star Devourer!"
"Now! Say my name again!"
Xing Luo's fists creaked as he clenched them:
(ꐦ◣yi◢) "Lord... Noah!"
