A siege comes to an end just like that.

The group of Heavenly Martial Artists standing beside Li Chen could hardly believe it.

Originally, when they decided to stand behind Li Chen, they were prepared to fight to the death.

However, in the end, they didn’t fight to the death and instead stood on the sidelines watching a play.

A play... that sent chills down their spine.

One by one, the strong perished in mutual slaughter.

At this moment, these Heavenly Martial Artists finally gained a clear understanding of the power of the Supreme Treasure, but even more impressive to them was Li Chen’s courage.

As for Li Chen’s strength, they weren’t very clear.

Although from start to finish, Li Chen only brought forth a Bagua Array Diagram. Nonetheless, without a certain standard in the Formation Path, even possessing a Bagua Array Diagram doesn’t necessarily mean one can easily set up a Triple Layer Great Formation that causes mutual slaughter among a group of strong people.

In the end, the saber and sword that flew out from beside Li Chen shocked a group of Martial Artists.

Indeed, the rumor has long existed that the Red Dust Heavenly King possesses a Supreme Treasure.

Yet, a Martial Artist with a Supreme Treasure has lived well all these years, and the Supreme Treasure hasn’t been taken by anyone strong. Doesn’t that say something?

That blood-colored long saber clearly carried Li Chen’s aura; it was evident that it had been refined with his Lifeblood, a powerful weapon carried for long.

As for the longsword, it was even more terrifying, with boundless Evil Qi that must have accumulated through countless slaughters.

But whether a saber or a sword, they both proved one thing.

The souls that died under this pair of weapons are countless.

This Red Dust Heavenly King is definitely a decisive and ruthless person.

"Time to reap the rewards." Li Chen glanced at the few people beside him.

The few exchanged looks, quickly understanding Li Chen’s intention, they hurriedly ran over to collect the rings of those dead strong people.

When Li Chen saw a pile of rings placed in front of him, after checking them one by one, even he couldn’t help but smile.

"A thousand miles to deliver heads, a light gift but heavy in sentiment." Li Chen said casually while stretching his bones.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the surrounding few couldn’t help but hold back laughter, especially the Heavenly Martial Artists. If not for the deterrence Li Chen had brought them earlier, they might have burst out laughing.

What’s with this talk?

If those strong people who died in the Great Formation heard these words, they’d probably jump out angrily even if they’re dead?

As they were thinking, a Salt-Heaven Lord beside Li Chen suddenly saw a beam of blood light shoot up from the pile of corpses.

"Really came back to life?!" This Salt-Heaven Lord opened his mouth wide, intending to intercept, but found the blood light’s speed was astonishing, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, this Venerable Level strong person couldn’t help but look at Li Chen.

"Don’t worry about it, that’s just a piece of information from a condensed Lifeblood Essence, the creator already died," Li Chen said casually.

In fact, he had long sensed its presence, but simply didn’t bother with it.

"But if others find out you are here, and word of this spreads, won’t there be more people trying to hunt you down?" The Salt-Heaven Lord worriedly said. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Li Chen smiled slightly and asked, "What’s your name?"

"Leng Yao." The Salt-Heaven Lord was taken aback by Li Chen’s unexpected question but answered anyway.

Originally, he wanted to say ’Cold Yao Lord,’ but he immediately withdrew the suffix, considering that the number of Venerable Level individuals who had died at Li Chen’s hands earlier was likely in the dozens, to avoid any misunderstanding.

"Good, Leng Yao, this is for you." Li Chen said, grabbing a handful of rings and handing them to Leng Yao Lord.

"You mean..." Leng Yao Lord was stunned.

"Distribute the contents among your brothers." Li Chen smiled, "You all were ready to fight to the death earlier, right? Regardless of your thoughts, you chose to stand by my side. And I never mistreat those who stand by me."

Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Leng Yao found himself frozen in place.

Even though they chose to align with Li Chen, they did nothing throughout, yet Li Chen was willing to share the spoils with them.

For a moment, after hearing Li Chen’s words, Leng Yao didn’t know how to respond.

"Take it, no need to refuse." Li Chen chuckled, "In places like this, it’s easiest to profit from dead people. As long as you follow me, there should be plenty of such opportunities."

"...plenty of?" Leng Yao swallowed his saliva; is this guy planning to slaughter them all?

Li Chen sat down unhurriedly; by this time, the corpses surrounding them had mostly been cleaned up by the strong under Leng Yao’s command, even the rich Vital Essence had been entirely swept away.

The Three Lives Riverbank reverted to tranquility once more.

Slowly taking out item after item from a ring, Li Chen said to Leng Yao, "Do you know why I let that blood light escape just now?"

"Why?" Leng Yao instinctively asked.

"If I’m not mistaken," Li Chen said while busy working, "those fellows couldn’t confirm at first that I had a Supreme Treasure, nor what the Supreme Treasure might be, otherwise they wouldn’t have rushed to their deaths like this."

"Just now, that blood light should have gone to inform the others, confirming that I have the Supreme Treasure, the Bagua Array Diagram. Maybe shortly, more people will come to siege me." Li Chen smiled and said.

"Are you... not worried at all?" Leng Yao’s face showed signs of concern.

At this moment, Christina also sat down beside Li Chen; she received quite a lot from the previous harvest, which was evident from the delighted expression on her face.

"This guy only sets traps for others; there’s no way others can trap him." Christina said with a peculiar expression.

Looking at this Demon Realm strong person, Leng Yao’s lips moved, glanced at Li Chen but remained silent.

Although he didn’t like people from the Demon Realm, he vaguely felt Christina’s words might have some truth.

Li Chen smiled and flashed a grin at Leng Yao; his snow-white teeth gleamed sharply in the sunlight: "Rest assured, as long as their cultivation is suppressed, in this place..."

"No matter how many come, I’ll kill them all!"

With Li Chen’s words, Leng Yao felt as though a chilling wind was blowing by his side.

"Brother Li Chen, what are you doing?" At this time, Tian Yi’s voice came from behind Li Chen.

"Setting up the grill, preparing a barbecue."

"Barbecue? What are we grilling?"

"Eight-Treasure Chicken, found in a fellow’s ring; this is said to be one of the Four Realms’ top delicacies. Not tasting it feels like I’m letting myself down." Li Chen smacked his lips.

Leng Yao opened his mouth, realizing that he and this Red Dust Heavenly King, as well as the people around him, were simply not on the same wavelength.
