Chapter 3744 - A Life for a Life

"Brother Zhan! I know where they are! I'll pave the way for you! Us brothers are willing to die for you! Even though I'm just a foundationeer, I can't take this lying down! We have to avenge Xing Baifeng no matter what!" Xing Xiaoyuan said.

"Brother Zhan!" The other members of the Wargod Cult gathered together, looking at Xing Baizhan with angry, indignant expressions.

Xing Baizhan's eyes were two hellish pools of death. He cast a savage gaze towards the dark corridor ahead. "Lead the way!" His booming voice shook the entire arena.

"Yes!"

"Brother Zhan! They've split up into two camps, each located outside the cultivation rooms with galaxy-class orders. They're situated pretty far away and clearly don't have enough forces. We can divide and conquer them! Brother Zhan, which one do we attack first?" Xing Xiaoyuan asked.

"Ladies first, of course!" Xing Baizhan savagely said.

"Nice!" Xing Xiaoyuan's eyes brightened as he turned around and led the way. "I heard Xing Yue’s a great beauty!"

From the spectator area, one could see a ranking above the Cosmic God Palace. The ones in the top three places were Xing Baizhan, Luori Guiyang, and Xing Yue. They had remained within the rooms with galaxy-class orders the entire time, easily taking out any challengers that attempted to fight them. As for Tianming's name, it was ranked outside the top ten, far from reaching the top three.

When Xing Baizhan and his crew gathered and angrily approached Xing Yue's room, the hearts of the five million spectators loudly thumped. Jiang Linxi was rather dumbfounded; she knew that Tianming wouldn't be able to defeat Xing Yue or Luori Guiyang, but he wasn't the one who would do so! Xing Baizhan would be fighting them! If the two geniuses of Starmoon Haven lost a challenge for the rooms and half of their points, it would all be over.

"At the very least, their scores are much higher than Li Tianming's!" She breathed a sigh of relief at that thought.

"What if they both die?" Mo Fan said. Dead people would lose all their points!

"It won't reach that point! Even though Xing Baizhan’s capable, Luori Guiyang and Xing Yue are also top geniuses. They’re on par with each other. Not to mention, if Xing Yue starts fighting, someone would notify Luori Guiyang right away. Your Blazestar Cult has quite a huge number of people, so they'll be able to make it in time to reinforce my people!"

"Well...." Mo Fan grit his teeth. The logic was sound, but he still felt anxious. The variable of instability was still in the Cosmic God Palace, where a great battle was brewing. The members of the Three Great Cults were furious! How had Tianming managed to instigate it while cultivating the entire time?!

Tianming's caelum entered the purple star within the cultivation room as his mouth curved into a smile. "It's time to start the show!"

"Someone's dead!" A sudden shriek tore through the silence. Seventy-odd totemancers of the Blazestar Cult had been arguing and talking about the grudges they held until they heard it. They shook from the bad omen it indicated. "Bad news!"

They rose and looked at the end of the corridor. All they saw was a young foundationeer from their cult with only half their body remaining being thrown their way. He fell to the ground before their eyes and was entirely covered in astral blood.

"The Wargod Cult! All of them! They're here!" Mo Shen said, eyes bloodshot with rage. "They were the ones that killed Luori Yumo first! All we wanted was justice, yet they dare to cause more trouble!"

"Those brutish specters really think that we of the Blazestar Cult are pushovers, eh?!"

It was vengeance for vengeance! They’d thought that everything would calm down after both sides had suffered losses at each others’ hands instead of devolving to mutual destruction, yet they would never have thought that the Wargod Cult would go so far.

"I'll go to Luori Guiyang!"

"If we’d known that the Wargod Cult would be so brazen, we'd have joined forces and wiped them out long ago!"

The Blazestar Cult members devolved into chaos. As they made their moves, they felt mountains approaching, the ground shaking beneath their feet. The next moment, one ferocious specter after another burst out of the black smog and charged toward the members of the Blazestar Cult. There were more than seventy of them, around the same number as the Blazestar Cult members!

"You attacked without even saying a word, did you?!"

"The Wargod Cult might have the upper hand in the Middlekin Star Ruin, but things are different in the Cosmic God Palace!" Each sect could only send a hundred people into the Cosmic God Palace, so the united Scorchmoon and Blazestar Cults had the upper hand against the third faction. Not to mention, each cult had their own genius from Starmoon Haven. That was why Luori Guiyang and Xing Yue weren't too concerned about not sticking together. Neither cult feared going up against Xing Baizhan.

"Call Sister Xing Yue, quick!" A few members of the Blazestar Cult went to inform the members of the Scorchmoon Cult, while others went to Xing Yue's cultivation room.

"Hold them back! Once the Scorchmoon Cult comes, we'll wipe these animals out!" The young folks let their blood boil with rage and hatred! With their emotions controlling their every action, the consequences would be incredibly hard to predict.

"Die!" The totemancers immediately manifested their totems as the specters rampaged. Stars seemed to clash within the dark corridor. Artifacts and totems surrounded the totemancers, making them glow even brighter. The specters they faced were domineering and ferocious, led by the vengeful Xing Baizhan. Each and every strike of his sent lightning flying all over the place. His figure was a storm in the chaotic melee after he transformed into a three-headed, six-armed, fifty-plus-meter-tall gray fiend of death!

The Wargod Cult exterminated everyone they saw without bothering to speak at all. Their true goal was to catch the enemy off guard in order to gain a numerical advantage; talking it out would run contrary to that objective. Bai Ye had added many different details in its machinations too, depriving them of every chance they had to talk. Their grudge had already blinded them to the point that, when the killing started, there was no stopping anything!

Right as the fight began, the door to the golden cultivation room swung open and a beauty taller than forty meters stepped out, her hair glowing bright like a rainbow. Her cold eyes met Xing Baizhan's gaze. "Xing Baizhan, how dare you?! Are you courting death?!"

"Courting death? Me? Hehehe...!" Xing Baizhan sinisterly laughed. His main objective was to first cripple one of his two rivals before the other came to her aid. Luori Guiyang would be informed of his attack soon, so he had to finish it fast!

"Xing Tiancheng and Xing Baiwei killed Luori Yumo. All Guiyang and I did was avenge her. A life for a life! We’re

even!

Are you not going to let the matter rest? Did you think we're afraid of you?!" Xing Yue hissed.
