Chapter 640: Chapter 640 Response_1 Chapter 640: Chapter 640 Response_1 As Chief Yuan admitted his mistake and directly chose the worst strategy, the atmosphere took a dramatic and dire turn.
The one who reacted the most wasn’t even the person involved, but a certain flexible diator.
Who would have thought that Yuan Shan would be so resolute, like a gambler who miscalculates at the crucial mont, causing Grantham’s student to go pale with shock.
It was clear from the previous exchange of words that if the negotiation failed, Ember was almost certain to flee, and the likelihood of capturing him was slim.
In such a case, all the consequences would undoubtedly fall on Gulad, and the ensuing fate was truly hard to be optimistic about.
However, as this person was seized with terror, Yuan Shan didn’t even cast a glance his way.
Once she made up her mind, she could barely be bothered to speak, completely ignoring that Ember’s rank was much higher than hers, and she took direct action.
Although Chief Yuan enjoyed idling, when it ca to serious matters, he was truly committed!
Witnessing this familiar scene, Fu Qian sighed again.
He rembered the last ti against Ariel, how she had recklessly charged forward with no regard for her life.
And now, with her action, black ribbons danced and twirled in the air, enveloping the entire room in an instant and forming a translucent cocoon.
Fu Qian had seen this move before, when the confinent area of the Shangjing Night Watchn Base was contaminated by a demigod’s corpse, Yuan Shan had used a similar thod to contain it.
The current gesture seed to add an additional barrier to this special prison, making it not so easy for Ember to escape.
Clearly, even if Yuan Shan was playing her cards openly, she wasn’t just going through the motions, but was prepared to use all ans to keep the opponent there.
Chief of Shangjing, she indeed deserved the title.
“Foolish and rigid, just like your rules,” Ember snapped.
That Yuan Shan would reject his suggestion shocked Ember deeply.
But after all, as a powerful figure for a decade, he would not exhibit the weakness of being unable to accept reality.
Almost instantly, nurous sharp blades extended from the two bone wings on his back.
And the strange patterns that covered his body were finally fully revealed.
At the sa ti, an ethereal spear descended from the heavens, striking the spot where he stood ready for battle.
Chief Yuan’s move was not just a barrier; within the cocoon, attacks could be launched from any position following her will.
However, even such a surprise attack only hit an afterimage, as Ember’s figure appeared in a distant corner.
And even though her strike missed, Yuan Shan was not discouraged; with a wave of her hand, the interior of the cocoon once again bulged with nurous protrusions.
The nurous ethereal spears, like the spines of an inverted sea urchin, all aid directly at Ember.
…
“An interesting power; before today, I might have envied such a talent,” said Ember, his body expanding almost to the point of reaching the ceiling.
After offering his praise, he reached out and grabbed the nearest black spear.
To everyone’s astonishnt, what seed almost like a shadowy, ethereal object truly materialized in his grasp.
And it wasn’t over yet; in the next instant, he exerted force with his hand, and the spear was snapped in two, even emitting a crisp breaking sound.
“It’s a pity that now, I no longer view things from that perspective; the true essence of power is much clearer in front of ,” he continued.
“And such attacks are nothing more than flamboyant jugglery,” he scoffed.
“Very nice! Was that move just now derived from so authority shared by the progenitor? Was the concept of the spears’ existence desecrated and degraded into actual wood?” Fu Qian inquired with genuine interest, having not imdiately cooperated in the attack.
“You may think so, but that kind of power in its most essential form can never truly be described by words,” replied Ember.
“Understood, understood, it’s profoundly mysterious!” said Fu Qian, nodding as if he completely got it.
Clang!
At that mont, a clear sound of clashing echoed.
Su Gao, who had been quiet, took a step forward with Curved Sword already in hand.
And the direction she faced, a misshapen wing was slowly retracting, drawing back to Ember’s back.
Behind her lay Selana, bathed in blood.
Ember, this freshly promoted Divine Envoy, hadn’t tried to tear through the barrier and flee at the first mont. Instead, he wasted ti talking—was he actually trying to launch a sneak attack to kill Selana?
Considering Selana’s condition, had not Su Gao intervened, that strike would have been exceedingly deadly.
“You—”
Grantham’s cry of surprise ca just in ti, seemingly unable to comprehend why Ember would attempt to strike Selana at this mont.
Perhaps they had ideological differences, but after all, they were kin. Could he really despise her to such an extent?
Unfortunately, Ember completely ignored him, showing no intention to engage, only staring intently at Su Gao.
Actually, Fu Qian could sowhat understand the behavior of this individual.
Despite their poor relationship, it wasn’t likely that out of re spite, Ember would risk attacking and killing Selana. The old man Ember might have the character for it, but he would probably not want to take the risk.
The reason for his actions should still be because Selana was a Demigod.
Although he couldn’t reach an understanding with Yuan Shan, as long as Selana died, the next day, no matter what, the situation would still spell a heavy loss for Gulad.
The death of one Demigod, another hunted, all because of a single violation that hadn’t even hard many people.
Given such a situation, the Night Watchn, considering the impact, might possibly lessen the intensity of the hunt to so extent.
This individual could indeed be said to utilize others to the utmost extent.
“Extraordinarily sharp—you really are full of surprises today!”
Now, Ember’s tone as he stared at the weapon in Su Gao’s hand, wasn’t as relaxed as before.
“And despite rely being a common weapon, it actually managed to injure .”
While he spoke, the small wound on his bony wing was already healing at a rapid pace.
“You are definitely the kind of opponent I least want to face!”
Ember, having successfully ascended, was in high spirits and spared no effort in praising the newcor.
Unfortunately, Su Gao, as expressionless as ever, didn’t even give him a grunt in response.
With weapon in hand at the mont, the only thing she did was to focus wholly on her target, waiting to unleash her Montum.
Fu Qian terd it as the Hunter stance.
In this aspect, Su Gao possessed an indescribable battle instinct. She didn’t strike imdiately, likely because she sensed sothing, or else Selana would have probably fallen already.
“But what a pity, you still can’t read the tis.”
Posture was one thing, but Ember’s true disposition was clearly diocre; after hitting a snag, he swiftly went from praise to criticism, starting to critique the pair of Su Gao.
“In this regard, you should actually learn from Mr. Fang. For things that are destined, why exert useless effort?”
“Now that doesn’t make happy. It’s as if I’m slacking off.”
This ti, before Yuan Shan could speak, Fu Qian was the first to voice his objections.
“Isn’t it the case? Then what are you doing right now?”
“Good question.”
“Naturally, I’m introducing so unknown variables before the foregone conclusion.”
Speaking, Fu Qian followed the murmurs in his consciousness, no longer resistant, he directly answered.
