79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiqsjfKCYs
Damage numbers continuously floated above Jiang Xiong’s head.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiRQjU3m73
Even though his Sword King Set reduced a large portion of damage, after just a few hits, half of his HP was gone.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Sirsf2Fl
“At this rate, I’ll definitely die!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMd6Bn9zzNb
“No time to think—survival comes first!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEMCINP65G
He hurriedly took out several Emperor-grade items from his storage.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l373D02n8
[Longevity Pill]: Greatly increases all attributes and restores HP by a percentage.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJZDxjv4yR
[Substitute Puppet]: Can replace the user in death once.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1SDm3tO2R
[Tortoise Shell Shield]: Absorbs one million damage; upon breaking, instantly restores 60% HP.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguyNYqmyAp
There was no other way—he had to do it to survive. Now that he felt the threat of death, he didn’t hesitate to take out all those life-saving items.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdIvdbNnld
“Damn, this guy has so many good things!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxnr7q9Nma
All of them were powerful life-saving tools. Zhou Han’s eyes lit up as he looked at them.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbEf3prulE
He immediately stopped Myriad Swords Return to the Sect.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5dqNG4ecw
Now that these items would belong to him, he naturally didn’t want to damage them.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApR9XdZOIv
“Crack!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLVXfZx5CH
Seeing a large fissure appear on the Turtle Shell Shield, it was clearly completely destroyed, making Zhou Han feel a pang of regret.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdMSU02t0c
It was all because Myriad Swords Return to the Sect was too fierce—by the time he called it off, it was already too late.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9KCihUfBd
The pills had already been consumed by Jiang Xiong. Now only a Substitute Puppet remained usable.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8gnFTvYK2
“Huff!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4fkYyUV1b
Feeling the terrifying sword shadows disappear, Jiang Xiong let out a long breath, his forehead covered in sweat.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabOBSJOvam
“As expected of the number one prodigy… to be able to crush me in such a short time.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6LRswaxrm
“I must’ve had a death wish to provoke him!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNcmuvlezQ
Thinking about the countless sword shadows just now, lingering fear filled his heart, and he couldn’t help but shiver.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvIMFJi3Ko
As a Sword King, yet in front of the number one prodigy, he was like a weak chicken. Thinking about it was truly miserable.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GgjsOZHJq
“Well? How did my sword technique taste?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mfZWjcpRs
“Didn’t you say you’d let me see true power? Where is it? Why don’t I see anything?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6JuOLwbvc
With his hands behind his back, Zhou Han slowly approached, mocking him with a sarcastic tone.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q7F27tFJh
“I was arrogant and ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQTAg3rpCM
Jiang Xiong slumped on the ground, his face filled with fear as he spoke honestly.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzDv0u3FYQ
“Still planning to block me?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu9Bqy2tP2
“…”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTOuWlNq7n
Jiang Xiong felt speechless. Was he tired of living? Still dare to block him?
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d0dX7tO6q
Of course, that was only what he thought—he didn’t dare say it out loud.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cEjUqB7Yu
“Hand it over!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMtJKpHS3S
“Do you want me to take it myself?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJTOQwKH6T
Looking at the item in Jiang Xiong’s hand, Zhou Han spoke calmly, but his tone carried undeniable authority.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBStCCdlyiu
Jiang Xiong immediately realized—so the sudden disappearance of the sword shadows was for the Substitute Puppet in his hand!
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqFzq38iRu
Otherwise, today he would have most likely died here.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRsNaZ6EWI
Without hesitation, he handed it over to Zhou Han.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FQN4tBw3S
After getting it, Zhou Han didn’t hesitate and directly enhanced it.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpdpbbI4SW
[Substitute Puppet +9]
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLejvfCLwMg
Quality: Emperor-grade item
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjDAFkKmU8
Effect: Can substitute death for the user three times.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLs62cZjsZ
Description: If killed by a decapitation-type effect, this effect will not activate.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7hpegmgYQ
After enhancement, it could substitute death three times—simply overpowered. His survivability increased greatly.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4jzK8Lii1
Through the system’s explanation, Zhou Han learned:
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCxlppNDu9
He was wearing a famous blade, so the blade’s effect would trigger first.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsy3sDoIhD
If the blade was on cooldown, the Substitute Puppet would then activate.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rm4vQxsMf
This way, the usage count wouldn’t be wasted easily.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlC2McZ1D9J
But Zhou Han still wasn’t truly invincible—after all, there existed a ‘decapitation’ effect.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIzmROirBa
However, such effects were extremely rare and not easy to encounter.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o6YNyfx4E
Aside from seeing that Myriad Swords Return to the Sect had a decapitation effect,
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiVp3ossoz
Zhou Han hadn’t seen any other equipment or skills with such a property.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfQStlMzGQ
After reviewing it, Zhou Han put the matter aside.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfzCS3X4c0
“Let’s go. Lead the way—I want to see the City Lord!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEipAz3KVXc
Zhou Han said. With Jiang Xiong leading, at least there wouldn’t be any more obstruction along the way.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhs27xJWow
Jiang Xiong immediately got up respectfully and headed toward the inner hall.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzy9RG2fKS
Only after Zhou Han left did the soldiers dare to raise their heads.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYCoL0mPZC
They had all been trembling on the ground. The earlier scene had completely terrified them.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0ID9ArX5G
If Zhou Han had killing intent, they would’ve already become corpses.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfZoU40v1v
“Zhou Han? The number one prodigy of the Sword God Hall?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAcAsl5nQc
“What brings you here?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXCssWzpct
The City Lord was a shrewd man. Seeing Jiang Xiong’s disheveled appearance, he immediately knew he had been defeated.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0h7HoMSsm
Now Jiang Xiong was acting almost like Zhou Han’s servant, taking the initiative to introduce his identity.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8HIWmQ473
The City Lord’s expression shifted slightly. He was no longer furious, but his true thoughts were impossible to read.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn3bLm5R0G
“My subordinate was killed by people from Falling Sakura City. I’ve come to take revenge.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7LimRqfLx
Zhou Han got straight to the point.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvAwWWBq06
“City Lord, it was that group of ‘Outlanders’ who provoked Zhou Han!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmeNIjrBC7
The so-called ‘Outlanders’ was the NPC term for players like Zhou Han.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJDHmBR7Hm
“Oh? Then what do you want me to do to help you?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVXjWDfGR8
The City Lord nodded and asked with a smile.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSGtjckreB
“Release a deathmatch mission. Blood debts must be repaid with blood!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChavBarHmH
“What? A deathmatch mission? Impossible!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflhmoCGB4m
The City Lord shot up from his seat in shock and immediately rejected it loudly.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsgXmD7Qvv
This concerned the stability of the city and his ruling authority.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8QdIBVaD0
If it were an ordinary matter, he might give some face and agree.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKorZB6F11
But something like this—there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zzr5XFgNh
“No room for negotiation? You can state your conditions. Maybe we can reach an agreement.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85LnNw8sA1
Zhou Han’s expression remained calm. He wasn’t surprised by the reaction, but he still tried to persuade him.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL9h57J9Jo
After all, this was someone else’s territory. He didn’t hold the moral high ground—avoiding a fight would be best.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMrJe4r1JR
“You think you’re qualified to negotiate with me? Are you worthy?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMTfc1BByf
“You’re just a prodigy of the Sword God Hall. When I became famous, you were probably still drinking milk somewhere!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsvMBoPTuu
The City Lord’s face turned extremely ugly. He had completely torn off all pretense and spoke with blatant contempt, clearly not caring about Zhou Han’s identity.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVex2PXtZrp
Originally, he was already displeased with Zhou Han barging into his residence. Now that such an unreasonable demand was made,
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxbOSqWSs6
Even a clay figure has its temper—let alone a lofty City Lord.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxtB5iawgf
With noble status and overwhelming power, his authority could not be challenged.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonHsQCPF1a
“Looks like you won’t cooperate. Fine. Then I’ll have to make another move!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UXF374SrA
Zhou Han’s eyes narrowed. He hadn’t expected such humiliating words from the City Lord.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw0ePkOhqy
He had intended to persuade him further, but now he felt displeased.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupsMkDatSs
Since the other party was stubborn, words were useless.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SXhoCVDSO
Then only strength could decide the outcome.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHM0NK6Tmd3
After all, in the Godfiend Continent, strength reigns supreme. If he wouldn’t cooperate—then he would be beaten into cooperation!
