"You...what do you mean?"
“What do I mean, don’t you understand, Phoenix Sect Master?” Yun Che sneered, “I came here with a kind heart, but you just don’t know what’s good for you. I gave you chance after chance, but you would rather let your son die than destroy these opportunities. Do you still naively think that I will be as kind as I was yesterday?!”
"you!!"
"Master!" Feng Feilie said quickly, "What he has in his hands are the lives of two princes! The Thirteenth and Fourteenth Princes have already been killed, and the Ninth and Eleventh Princes must not be harmed under any circumstances. Moreover, his speed is unpredictable. If we continue to confront him head-on, not only will the Ninth and Eleventh Princes be in danger, but the lives of other princes may also be in danger..."
The veins on Feng Hengkong's forehead and arms throbbed, almost bursting, and he uttered a deep, piercing voice: "Then what do you want to do today... to let them go!!"
“Oh?” Yun Che seemed quite surprised by Feng Hengkong’s reaction, and sneered sarcastically: “It seems that your Phoenix Sect Master’s brain has finally become a little smarter. That’s true. Although you, Phoenix Sect Master, are worse than beasts, you are still a human being in terms of species. You should be different from stupid pigs and mad dogs.”
Feng Hengkong gnashed his teeth and compromised, but what he got in return was Yun Che's extremely vicious insults. In just a few words, not to mention Feng Hengkong, even the most ordinary Phoenix disciples were so angry that their lungs and spleens almost exploded. Yun Che stretched out his finger slowly and said with a compassionate face: "Then I will give you Phoenix Divine Sect a third chance. If you do it, these two princes will live, and I will not bother to stay in this dirty place anymore. Of course, you can continue to refuse, I don't mind at all. To be honest, you caused my Cangfeng Country to bleed like a river and corpses piled up like a mountain, and I only killed a dozen of you. It was too easy for you."
“First,” Yun Che, who had been sneering a moment ago, suddenly turned cold, his gaze piercing Feng Hengkong like an icy blade: “Within twenty days, all of your Divine Phoenix Army will be driven out of my Blue Wind Nation! Not a single one is allowed to stay, and you are not allowed to invade even a single step within three hundred years!”
“Secondly, you, Feng Hengkong, must personally draft an imperial edict to apologize to our Blue Wind Nation and announce it to the world! You must also frame this imperial edict on the main gate of your Divine Phoenix City and hang it there for at least ten years!”
"Third, compensate my Blue Wind Nation 30 billion Purple Profound Coins!!"
"Fourth, cede the Chiqiong Region located on the northeastern border of your Shenhuang Nation to my Cangfeng Nation!"
"Yun Che!! Don't push your luck!" Every time Yun Che mentioned a condition, Feng Hengkong's face darkened. When Yun Che mentioned the fourth condition, his chest was about to burst and he roared. The time limit for withdrawing the army was shortened, and the time for not invading was extended. Not only must the edict be announced to the world, but it must also be hung on the city gate for a full ten years! The compensation increased sharply again. The most intolerable thing... Yesterday, they only asked his Divine Phoenix Nation to cede Chiqiong City, but today, they actually asked for the entire Chiqiong Region! !
Although the Crimson Jade Region is on the edge of the Divine Phoenix Empire, it is one of the largest regions in the Divine Phoenix Empire. In terms of area alone, it is equivalent to a quarter of the Blue Wind Nation!
“Fifth!” Yun Che ignored Feng Hengkong’s roar and coldly shouted out another condition. He stretched out his finger and pointed at Feng Ximing who was beside Feng Hengkong: “This prince of your Divine Phoenix Nation… I remember his name was Feng Ximing, right? This last condition is much simpler - destroy his profound skills, and then let him follow me to Blue Wind Imperial City as a guest for fifty years.”
“!!!!”
Yun Che’s last words completely ignited the anger in the hearts of everyone in Fengheng Divine Sect.
Withdraw the troops, make amends, pay compensation, cede territory... and even ask for hostages! Moreover, the hostage is the crown prince of their Divine Phoenix Empire!
Moreover, he would have to abolish the profound skills he had practiced for a hundred years... The time he had to wait for was as long as fifty years! !
If their Shenhuang Nation really did so, it would be a huge shame that would bring disgrace to all the ancestors of Shenhuang and the entire 5,000-year history of Shenhuang!
“Yun Che, you are wishful thinking!!” Feng Ximing had not expected that Yun Che’s accusation would suddenly point at him. He, who already hated Yun Che to the core, was so angry that he was shaking all over.
“Father, as your son, I would rather die than suffer such humiliation! Because it is not only a humiliation for you, but also a humiliation for you and me, the Divine Phoenix!! The Chiqiong Territory is not only an important territory of our Divine Phoenix, but also the birthplace of our Divine Phoenix ancestor. Even if my Divine Phoenix is completely destroyed, I will never cede it to others!!” Feng Ximing became more and more agitated, and he shouted out the following words with all his strength.
"Master, this kind of thing that would humiliate the country and lose its sovereignty must never be allowed!"
"But the two princes..."
“This Yun Che is clearly insulting my Divine Phoenix! No matter what, we must not compromise with this boy!”
Feng Hengkong's face was red, and his breathing was extremely heavy. He had reached the limit of his endurance and was on the verge of complete collapse. Two days ago, when Yun Che held the prince hostage for the first time and shouted out the negotiation conditions, he was almost furious.
But compared to today, Yun Che on that day was so kind that he could be called the reincarnation of a living Buddha!
Facing the anger and glares of the entire Divine Phoenix Sect, Yun Che’s expression remained unchanged as he said slowly, “Feng Hengkong, I’ll give you five breaths to consider. Either you obey me and I’ll start executing immediately. Or, they die. Don’t try to bargain, and don’t try to delay. There are only five breaths… I won’t wait even a moment longer.”
“Five!” As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Che shouted out the first number.
"Four……"
"three……"
On one side, there were the lives of the two princes, and on the other side, there was a great humiliation that they could never accept. The time left for them was only an extremely short five breaths. This was undoubtedly putting all the people of the Phoenix Divine Sect on the fire.
“Sect Master…” All eyes were focused on Feng Hengkong. On one side was the prince’s fate, and on the other was the shame of the Divine Phoenix. No one dared to make a decision on their own, and they didn’t even dare to say anything extra.
“Two…” Yun Che retracted another finger from his outstretched palm.
"Father...Father!!" Feng Xilin and Feng Ximin screamed in fear and despair with all their strength.
"one……"
Blood was dripping from Feng Hengkong's fingers, and his body had not stopped shaking from beginning to end. Yesterday, Yun Che had taught them that false promises were useless, but if he agreed to the five conditions Yun Che proposed, he would become the eternal sinner of the Divine Phoenix Empire, and the mighty Divine Phoenix would become a laughing stock of the seven nations... After death, he would have no face to face his ancestors.
If he didn't agree, his two sons would definitely die... Yun Che would come again, and with his unpredictable abilities, he would kill more of them, and the conditions he proposed later might be even more cruel...
Three years ago, when he sent troops to invade Cangfeng, simply annexing Cangfeng's territory was just a very simple matter in his eyes. He never dreamed that it would lead to such a revenge.
“Yun Che…” Feng Hengkong said in a low voice: “If you dare…”
At this time, Yun Che retracted his last finger, and a cruel smile appeared on his face: “Five breaths have passed. Frankly speaking, Phoenix Sect Master, I like your answer very much… Two noble princes, it seems that your father does not take your lives seriously at all. The conditions I proposed are so kind and generous, but he still chooses to watch you die… If that’s the case, there is no need for you to live.”
Feng Hengkong and all the Phoenix elders were horrified and shouted at the same time: "Stop!!"
Boom!!!
In response to them, there were only two blinding flames. The Divine Phoenix Prince, who had the most noble status, was like the most humble ant in Yun Che's hands, and he was crushed to death without any hesitation. In the exploding flames, Feng Xilin and Feng Ximin's bodies instantly shattered, and then burned into nothingness without a trace.
“Lin’er… Min’er!!” Feng Hengkong let out a heart-wrenching roar and rushed towards Yun Che like a madman: “Yun Che!! I, Feng Hengkong, will never forgive you…!!!”
“You’re not worthy enough!!” Yun Che sneered in a low voice, then burst into wild laughter and soared into the air: “Feng Hengkong, four of you died, and you still have ten sons… Don’t worry, before you pay the price you deserve, I will send them to hell one by one! Just wait!!”
Yun Che turned around, and his body turned into an arrow that flew away to the west.
"Kill him!! Kill him no matter what!" Feng Feilie roared.
Amid the chaotic explosion, the three Phoenix elders who were in the direction of Yun Che’s escape all flew into the air and headed towards Yun Che.
The long sword burning with phoenix flames fiercely stabbed at Yun Che's vitals...
Yun Che narrowed his eyes slightly, emitting a cold and dangerous light from his eyes. Facing the three Phoenix elders coming towards him, his speed did not slow down, but instead increased suddenly. A scarlet light flashed in his hand, and his entire body of profound energy suddenly erupted, and the Heaven Smiting Sword blasted straight ahead.
Previously, facing the attacks and encirclement of the Phoenix Sect, Yun Che had only dodged and fled. This time, the three Phoenix elders all attacked with all their strength, and in their subconscious, Yun Che must have used his ghostly body movement skills to avoid all their attacks, and then escaped far away...
However, what they saw was the oncoming scarlet sword light.
The three Phoenix elders were slightly surprised at first, and then overjoyed. The profound energy in their bodies expanded again, and several feet long fire snakes sprang up on their swords... If Yun Che wanted to escape, they believed that with Yun Che's speed, they would have no way to stop him. But in a head-on fight, with the combined strength of the three of them, there was no reason why they would not severely injure Yun Che... or even kill him on the spot.
But the joy on their faces only lasted for a moment, and was replaced by a growing fear... Because the oncoming profound force storm was so powerful that it was countless times beyond their expectations. When the scarlet giant sword approached, the phoenix flames that they had ignited were suppressed like candles in the wind, and not even a trace of flame was left. A force that was like the collapse of the sky pressed down on their bodies. In front of this force, they felt that their bodies, which were stronger than fine steel, were as fragile and tiny as ants...
"The falling moon and sinking stars!!"
Boom!!!
It was like a mountain exploding in the air. The huge roar shook the ground below and caused a large area of it to explode. All the people who chased after it clearly saw that the swords of the three Phoenix elders broke and flew out at the same time. Then, even their bodies were cut in half at the moment the giant sword swept across!
