Chapter 61: Southern Dynasty Banquet
Fen Jin's face was unfriendly: "You've come out of seclusion?"
The person standing in front of him was none other than Nan Chao Wenyan, who had withdrawn all his clones and emerged as his complete form.
"Yeah, did Jin miss me?"
Nan Chao Wenyan laughed: "There are three of us, trying to stop the four of you. Mu Qingyang really knows how to make things difficult for me."
"But it's okay." He paused: "We can stop it for a while, so it should be OK."
Fen Jin: "What benefit did Mu Qingyang give you?"
Nan Chaowenyan laughed and said, "You want to incite me to rebel."
He moved sideways to avoid the increasingly fierce flames of the burning embers, his eyes swept over Chi Changyuan and Leng Baibai who were standing guard not far away, and his tone changed slightly: "But you shouldn't ask about the benefits - what Mu Qingyang has done to make me willing to spend time here to 'stop' you.
Fen Jin’s expression darkened: “Stop pretending. If you don’t tell me, you might not walk out alive today.
He and Nan Chao Wenyan have always been good friends, and now when he sees him, he feels a sense of betrayal.
The smile on Nan Chao Wenyan's face suddenly faded. His gaze fell on Fen Jin, and his tone was tinged with a subtle bitterness: "Get out alive? Ah Jin, you never said such words to me before."
He raised his hand, his fingertips barely touching Fen Jin, but he dodged it fiercely. Fen Jin's voice was trembling with coldness, filled with suppressed anger: "You wouldn't have helped Mu Qingyang before!"
"I know." Nan Chao Wenyan interrupted him. He looked at the disappointment swirling in Fen Jin's eyes, his Adam's apple moving. "But some things aren't about 'right' or 'wrong', they're about 'having to'."
These words pierced Fenjin's heart like a thorn. He clenched his fists and said, "I have to? Betraying our friendship is also a necessity?"
"I told you not to get so close to him! He's such a wicked man!"
Among the seven gods, Mu Qingyang and Nan Chao Wenyan have the worst relationship.
But now, they can actually unite their front.
Leng Baibai threw an ice blade, which was wrapped in biting coldness and went straight to Nan Chaowenyan's heart. However, he seemed to have noticed it already, and he tapped the ground lightly with his toes and dodged to the side, and the hem of his clothes was brushed by the ice blade.
"If you want to do this, don't blame me for being rude."
The purple lightning in the sky tore through the clouds like a silver snake, and came straight down with a deafening thunder, its target was obviously Fenjin. He was about to take a breath to dodge, but Leng Baibai beside him had already frozen ice in front of him, and a light transparent ice wall rose out of thin air, just colliding with the lightning - with a loud "boom", the current was isolated.
"Just you? Such a trivial skill."
Nan Chao Wenyan looked at this scene with a hint of sneer on his lips. He raised his hand and clenched it towards the sky. The originally scattered lightning gathered again and turned into a thicker purple lightning, rolling in the clouds, which was more oppressive than before.
"A trifle?" His tone was full of disdain. "Leng Baibai, you really care about him."
Who this "he" is seems self-evident.
Leng Baibai: "I'll treat whoever I want to treat well. What's it got to do with you?"
He was merciless when he spoke harshly: "You're the bottom of the Seven Gods, and you still have time to bother with this? Think about how you're going to die!"
Nan Chao asked Yan: "That depends on whether you have the ability."
Before he finished speaking, a purple thread of lightning condensed from his fingertips and coiled around Leng Baibai's wrist like a venomous snake, precisely targeting the moment when he was concentrating his energy on condensing ice. Leng Baibai was startled, but it was too late. The thread of lightning grazed the back of his hand, and a numbness instantly spread to his forearm. The ice blade shattered to the ground with a clang.
"Leng Baibai!" Fenjin's face suddenly changed, and the flames immediately turned into a fire shield blocking her. The fire shield collided with the subsequent thunderstorm, and sparks and lightning flew everywhere.
"What's wrong with you?" He blamed. He knew Leng Baibai's strength well, so how could he not be able to dodge...
"I don't know either..." Leng Baibai's face was pale, and he seemed to be suddenly frozen just now.
Dong Ge Mingye took the opportunity to step forward with his sword, and with the force of breaking the wind, he slashed at Fen Jin's shoulder: "The master is not someone you can discuss."
Fenjin dodged sideways, but the sword wind swept through the hem of his clothes, instantly tearing a hole in the fabric. The mockery in his eyes faded a little, and became more solemn.
The two of them...
"Did you feel it?" Nan Chao Wenyan laughed. "You two, who are known as the strongest of the Seven Gods, were defeated by me, the weakest. It's really interesting to think about it."
The flames in Fen Jin's palm suddenly shot up, the golden flames almost licking the blade of Dong Ge Ming Ye's sword. "You just borrowed Mu Qing Yang's things to show off, and you dare to say you can defeat me?"
Nan Chao Wenyan and Dong Ge Mingye seemed to have a strong power of the Moon God.
Dong Ge Mingye didn't respond, but swung his heavy sword backhandedly, the wind wrapped in a sharp energy force, forcing Fen Jin to retreat repeatedly. Meanwhile, Nan Chao Wenyan had quietly circled around Fen Jin's side, the lightning threads condensed from his fingertips aimed at the flaw in Fen Jin's body that had been hit by the wind.
Nan Chao Wenyan said proudly: "It doesn't matter whose power I borrow. What matters is that I can now watch you being trampled under my feet."
"So you hate me so much."
The current in Nan Chao Wenyan's fingertips paused, and the smugness in his eyes faded as if cold water had been poured on him. He looked at Fen Jin, who was still holding the flames but not immediately fighting back. His Adam's apple moved, but his tone remained firm. "Hate? Why say it so harshly?"
Fen Jin sneered: "I thought I treated you well. I gave you everything you wanted. I always protected you during the battles. Even when I was defeated, I tried my best to protect you. I never expected..."
"That's almsgiving, I don't want it." Nan Chao Wenyan certainly knew that Fen Jin treated him well, but... why should he just wait obediently for others to treat him well?
Looking across the seven nations, he was the only one without a master or a backer. Although he held a high position and great power, he was regarded as Fenjin's follower and a pendant.
It was as if he, the mighty God of Thunder and Lightning, was actually a vassal of Burning Ashes.
Fen Jin seemed to have not expected him to say that, with surprise welling up in his eyes: "Alms? I protect you because you are my brother, not a charity!"
"Brother?" Nan Chao Wenyan suddenly laughed, his laughter filled with self-deprecation, and the electricity in his fingertips crackled. "So what? Don't they think I'm unworthy of the title of 'Your Majesty'? If I win, it's because you help me; if I lose, it's because I hold you back. Even the title of Demon God is due to you!"
There are countless gods on the continent, but only those who own a country can be called His Majesty.
Fen Jin suddenly fell silent, and after a while he said in a deep voice, "I understand."
"But you may not understand that using this jade pendant, which contains the power of the Moon Goddess, will shorten your lifespan."
He suddenly raised his hand, creating a wall of fire that licked the air as it charged towards Nan Chao Wen Yan. He then leaped up and spun around, ready to snap Dong Ge Ming Ye's neck.
"I saved your life, and now I can take it back."
