Xiao Chen had defeated Shi Meng, and Yu Shujin couldn't help but take a few more glances at him. In her opinion, Xiao Chen should be the first saint of the Seventh Wilderness because in terms of strength, the Divine Lord and the others were indeed inferior to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's expression was calm when he heard Yu Shujin's words, but he didn't feel relaxed in his heart. The six of them had besieged Yu Shujin, but she had swept them all away. Two of them had been killed, and the remaining four were also severely injured.
He had to admit that Yu Shujin was indeed extremely powerful. Xiao Chen knew that his chances of winning against her were not high. Of course, it would be different if Xiao Chen's cultivation broke through to the Lesser Perfection of the Quasi-sage Realm. Xiao Chen could still fight with Yu Shujin if their cultivations were similar.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world. Xiao Chen's current cultivation was at the Greater Perfection of the Quasi-sage Realm, and he was only one step away from the Lesser Perfection. However, it was this one step that caused the gap between his cultivation and Yu Shujin's.
Although he knew that he was no match for her, there was no way out now. Xiao Chen didn't think that Yu Shujin would stop if he and the others surrendered.
He looked at Yu Shujin calmly. Yu Shujin smiled and said, "I'll give you time to recover, and then you and I will fight again."
Yu Shujin didn't make a move. Instead, she gave Xiao Chen time to recover. Perhaps in Yu Shujin's opinion, victory would definitely belong to her, so she didn't take Xiao Chen seriously at all. That was why she was so generous to give Xiao Chen time to recover.
Xiao Chen was stunned when he heard Yu Shujin's words. Yu Shujin smiled faintly and said, "I'm actually not interested in you guys. You're not bad, so I can give you a chance to fight with me. Of course, if you guys are willing to retreat now, I can also spare your lives. The choice is up to you."
Xiao Chen was wrong. Yu Shujin didn't have the intention to kill them. The reason why she had killed them previously was because the prodigies of the Seventh Wilderness had taken the initiative to attack.
Of course, not wanting to kill them all didn't mean Yu Shujin had a good impression of the Seventh Barren's Heaven's Favorites. This was her personality.
To put it bluntly, in Yu Shujin's heart, there was only one goal in coming to the Northern Underworld Immortal Realm, and that was the immortal crystal spirit vein.
If anyone tried to stop her from obtaining the Immortal Crystal Spiritual Vein, she would kill them. On the other hand, if no one tried to stop her, Yu Shujin would not bother to make a move.
It was such a simple thought. Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled bitterly. From Yu Shujin's words, Xiao Chen could tell that Yu Shujin was a very self-centered person.
He didn't care about what the outside world thought. In any case, Yu Shujin would only consider whether she was comfortable or happy.
If she was happy, Yu Shujin would let her off even if she was an enemy. On the other hand, if she was unhappy, then even if she was her companion, Yu Shujin would probably kill her.
Xiao Chen thought to himself, "This is a man who is egotistical to the extreme." Then, Xiao Chen nodded slightly and said, "Alright, let's fight to determine the winner. If I lose, I'll give you the Immortal Crystal Spirit Vein."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chen looked at the Seventh Barren's Heaven's Favorites who were still fighting fiercely and shouted, "Everyone, stop fighting."
Since they had already decided to fight to determine the winner of the immortal crystal spirit vein, there was no point in continuing to fight. Moreover, judging from the situation, if they insisted on fighting to the death, they would probably suffer great losses in the end.
Xiao Chen didn't want to see such an outcome. After all, Qin Shuirou and the other two women, as well as Long Qing and Xuanyuan Ling, were also on the battlefield. Xiao Chen didn't want anything to happen to them.
Moreover, their purpose in coming to the Northern Underworld Immortal Realm was to stop Yu Shujin from obtaining the immortal crystal spirit vein, not to fight to the death with the younger generation of the Seventh Realm. Therefore, there was no point in continuing to fight.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone stopped fighting. At the same time, Yu Shujin said calmly, "Let's stop fighting."
Upon hearing this, the young geniuses from the Seventh Realm immediately stopped what they were doing.
The sky-prides from both sides had stopped fighting. However, after the intense battle, both sides had suffered quite a number of casualties. Originally, each side had about 500 people. Now, about a hundred of them had died, and the rest were all injured.
After the two sides stopped fighting, Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged and began to recover from his injuries.
Facing Yu Shujin, Xiao Chen's chances of winning were not high. However, this battle had to be fought. Otherwise, the immortal crystal spirit vein would be given away to someone else.
Moreover, among the Seventh Barren's Talents, the only one who still had a chance to fight against Yu Shujin was Xiao Chen.
After all, the Divine Lord and the other five had besieged Yu Shujin, but Yu Shujin had defeated them all. Therefore, the Divine Lord and the others would definitely lose if they fought.
Only Xiao Chen had a chance to fight against Yu Shujin. While Xiao Chen was recovering, a young Seventh Realm's Talent came to Yu Shujin's side. Because he had just gone through a great battle, the young Seventh Realm's Talent was still full of blood Qi. He looked at Yu Shujin with dissatisfaction.
"Heir, why did you stop fighting? With the strength of an Heir, he can definitely kill the Seventh Wilderness' Holy Son here. "
The young Seventh Realm's Talent was very dissatisfied with Yu Shujin's actions. She could have killed everyone in the Seventh Barren. Why did she suddenly stop?
However, Yu Shujin only said calmly in the face of his doubts. "Are you questioning my decision?"
There was no anger in her tone, but the young Seventh Realm's Talent's expression still changed when he heard that. Then, he cupped his hands and bowed to Yu Shujin in horror. "Please forgive me, Heir Apparent. Just now, I was just …"
He didn't think much of it before, but after hearing Yu Shujin's words, he realized that Yu Shujin wasn't a kind person.
He wanted to explain, but unfortunately, Yu Shujin didn't give him the chance. Before he could finish, Yu Shujin interrupted him. "Go back to the Punishment Hall to receive your punishment."
No one could question Yu Shujin's decision. Although Yu Shujin gave Xiao Chen time to recover and wanted to have a fair fight with him, the young Seventh Realm's Talents couldn't understand why. Even so, they couldn't question Yu Shujin.
Those who were familiar with Yu Shujin knew that many times, Yu Shujin's decisions were unpredictable and difficult to accept.
It could be said that Yu Shujin acted based on her own preferences. As for the result, it wasn't within Yu Shujin's consideration.
Hearing Yu Shujin's words, the young Seventh Realm's Talent who had questioned Yu Shujin nodded respectfully. "Yes, thank you for your mercy, Heir Apparent."
Ignoring him, Yu Shujin looked at Xiao Chen and murmured softly, "The Seventh Barren's First Saint. Let me see what the young Seventh Barren's Talent is capable of."
