Han Qianshan’s brows furrowed even more.
Yan Wuji was right.
If David was released, the reputation of the Void Merchant Guild would suffer a heavy blow.
“And Special Envoy Han, think about it.”
Yan Wuji continued, his voice increasingly urgent, “David is fickle and cruel. He even dared to finish off Wu Yuan, what else would he not dare to do? If you let him go today, he will turn his back on you tomorrow! You can’t trust people like this!”
Han Qianshan was silent for a long time, his red-gold eyes glanced back and forth between David and Yan Wuji.
David looked at Han Qianshan, his purple eyes showed no urgency, no tension, only extraordinary calm.
He was waiting for Han Qianshan to make a choice.
Whatever choice Han Qianshan made, he always had a way to deal with it.
If Han Qianshan chose to cooperate, it would be for the best, saving us from a bloody battle.
If Han Qianshan chose to be an enemy, that was fine; killing one person is still killing, and killing a group of people is still killing.
The silence lasted a long time.
The air in front of the mountain gate felt frozen; everyone held their breath, waiting for Han Qianshan’s decision.
Yan Wuji’s palms were already sweaty, and his golden-red eyes were fixed on Han Qianshan, filled with anticipation and nervousness.
The thousands of Fire God Palace disciples behind him were also extremely nervous, their weapons clenched so tightly they were rattling.
The three hundred Qingyun Cave disciples behind David remained calm. With their sect leader standing at the front, they did not flinch.
Finally, Han Qianshan spoke.
“David, what you said makes perfect sense.”
Yan Wuji’s expression suddenly changed.
“However,” Han Qianshan’s tone changed, a cold glint radiating from his golden-red eyes, “Wu Yuan was a member of my Void Merchant Guild. He is already dead, and we can’t just ignore him. Otherwise, what will the reputation of the Void Merchant Guild be like?”
Yan Wuji’s face immediately lit up with an expression of overflowing joy, his eyes sparkling with relief after surviving a calamity.
David stared at Han Qianshan, his purple eyes remaining completely calm.
“So, Special Envoy Han intends to avenge Wu Yuan?”
Han Qianshan nodded. “David, I apologize for the inconvenience.”
His voice contained a hint of apology, but it was so faint that it was almost inaudible.
David’s lips curled into a cold smile.
“Good.”
His voice was calm, so calm that it gave goosebumps.
“Special Envoy Han, I ask you to be patient for a moment.”
Han Qianshan frowned. “What are you waiting for?”
David raised his right hand, a cold glint flashing through his purple eyes.
“Wait and see how strong I am. If you make a move and fail to kill me, but are killed by me instead, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?”
After David finished speaking, Han Qianshan was completely shocked.
He didn’t know David’s strength, but judging from David’s calm and collected demeanor, David definitely had a killer move, otherwise he wouldn’t be so calm.
Seeing Han Qianshan not moving, David slowly drew his Dragon Slayer Sword.
A purple sword light, like a bolt of lightning tearing through the heavens and the earth, shot out from David’s waist, splitting the sky with destructive power, and slashed towards the Fire God Palace’s Heaven Fire Divine Flame Formation.
Wherever the sword light passed, space was torn apart by black cracks, from which violent spatial turbulence emerged, engulfing all the surrounding spirit trees and rocks.
The purple sword light collided with the golden-red spiritual energy barrier.
explosion
A deafening roar shook the entire Fiery Mountain Range violently. Rocks fell from the mountain peaks, trees were uprooted, and birds and beasts within a hundred mile radius scattered in fear.
Above the golden-red spiritual energy barrier, countless fire runes lit up simultaneously, releasing terrifying high temperatures in an attempt to resist the attack of the purple sword light.
However, the chaotic power contained in that purple sword light was too domineering.
The power of chaos is the source of all elements and the source of all laws.
The divine fire law released by the Yantian Dutian Divine Fire Formation was like a grandson meeting his grandfather in the face of chaotic power, not daring to resist at all.

There was a faint cracking sound from the spiritual energy barrier, like the first cracks appearing on ice.
Then, the cracks spread rapidly, from one to ten, from ten to a hundred, and from a hundred to a thousand.
Dense cracks spread throughout the golden-red spiritual energy barrier, like a giant spider web, enveloping the entire formation.
explosion
The spiritual energy barrier shattered completely.
Golden-red shards fell from the sky like a storm, each one blazing with flames, illuminating the entire Fire God Palace.
