Back in the Demonic Slaughter Space, An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, Cassidy, and Tobias all thought that Emperor Yi Deng wouldn't be stupid enough to stay put.
However, reality gave them a cruel slap to the face.
Emperor Yi Deng really did stay put and wait obediently. He didn't forcibly move the Divine Heaven Sealing Seal!
Thus, the mighty figures of the Celestial Court came to their rescue …
An Lin and the others were all touched by Emperor Yi Deng's benevolent and considerate actions.
Emperor Yi Deng discovered that everyone was looking at him with a peculiar expression, and he immediately flared up with rage. "What are you looking at? You think you can read my mind? Release the Holy Disciples at once! "
Only then did An Lin realize that he was still holding Cassidy and Tobias hostage. Now that the Celestial Thearch was here, there wasn't much point in holding them hostage.
The Celestial Thearch's eyes lit up at the sight of Cassidy and Tobias.
These two were An Lin's servants!
So that's how it is … What a coincidence.
The Celestial Thearch felt like he had to play along with An Lin and the others, so he immediately stepped forward and positioned himself in front of An Lin and the others. "Hahaha … As expected of the small War Gods of the Celestial Court. Even the two Holy Disciples of the Blood Tribe have been subdued by you! We've really struck gold this time!"
Emperor Yi Deng glowered at him. "Celestial Thearch, release them at once! Those are the Holy Disciples of our tribe! Do you really want a war to break out between the Blood Tribe and the human race?! "
The importance of the Holy Disciples was unfathomable. They were chosen by the Blood Patriarch, and to a certain extent, they could even be considered as direct descendants of the Blood Patriarch!
If Emperor Yi Deng encountered the two Holy Disciples and was killed or abducted right under his nose, not only would his reputation plummet, he might even be held accountable by the other emperors.
"Hehe, these two Holy Disciples tried to kill me in the past, so why are they letting me go just like that?" An Lin chuckled coldly as he pressed his Evil-Slaying Sword against Cassidy's slender neck.
Emperor Yi Deng could tell what An Lin was implying, and he gritted his teeth. "Alright, tell me, what do you want in exchange for their release?"
Hearing this, An Lin pondered for a moment before transmitting his voice to the Celestial Thearch, "I'm short on money."
This matter had to be spoken by the person with the most authority here.
The Celestial Thearch instantly understood, and he chuckled as he replied, "Ten million spirit stones per head! Hand it over now! "
"You …!" Emperor Yi Deng's eyes widened, and the space around him trembled with rage. "This is daylight robbery!"
"Hahaha … Could it be that the head of a holy disciple isn't even worth 10,000,000 spirit stones?" The Celestial Thearch's mocking smile did not diminish in the slightest.
His smile struck Emperor Yi Deng with a sense of humiliation. The head of a high and mighty Holy Disciple of the Blood Tribe was indeed worth 10,000,000 spirit stones.
If the Holy Disciples were being looked down upon, then he, the emperor of the Blood Tribe, would also be devalued. He really couldn't accept this injustice.
"Alright! I agree! "Emperor Yi Deng heaved a long sigh.
He had initially wanted to say that the storage rings of the two Holy Disciples were still here, so they could be used as spoils of war! Why did he have to pay? However, if he were to say that, he would most likely lose all of his dignity as a Blood Tribe emperor …
Emperor Yi Deng pulled out two thousand vital stones from his storage ring with a pained expression before tossing them toward the Celestial Thearch.
The Celestial Thearch didn't even look at them before tossing them to An Lin. "Take them as payment for your service."
He didn't even take a second glance at something worth twenty million spirit stones. Instead, he tossed it to An Lin as if it were a tip. Compared to Emperor Yi Deng, the difference between him and Emperor Yi Deng was clear to see.
Emperor Yi Deng was seething with rage. He was the one who had to bleed, but the Celestial Thearch was the one who had to flex.
An Lin was also filled with admiration as he humbly tried to emulate the Celestial Thearch's disposition.
He accepted the 20,000,000 spirit stones with an elated expression.
His target of 100,000,000 spirit stones had been achieved!
He really didn't think that his underling would be able to play such an important role in a life and death situation like this. He was very pleased.
Thinking about it from another perspective, Cassidy and Tobias still loved him.
They had traveled such a long distance to become his hostages, then swindled Emperor Yi Deng out of a ransom of 20,000,000 spirit stones. What was this? She was obviously here to give him warmth!!
An Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter with this in mind.
Emperor Yi Deng's eyes burned with boundless fury upon seeing An Lin's expression.
"Now … Why aren't you releasing our Holy Disciples?"
An Lin's heart jolted with shock upon seeing Emperor Yi Deng's expression, and he transmitted his voice to the Celestial Thearch, "I don't feel safe."
The Celestial Thearch instantly understood, and he turned to Emperor Yi Deng with a smile. "Not yet. In order to ensure the safety of our Celestial Court's members, you have to swear a dao heart oath that you won't seek revenge on An Lin in the future."
"That's impossible! I must avenge my son! "Emperor Yi Deng roared with rage.
The power of the divine dao began to surge within his body, and he was clearly going to fight with all his might.
An Lin transmitted his voice to the Celestial Thearch, "Let me progress to the Return to Void Stage first, and then he can seek revenge however he wants."
A faint smile appeared on the Celestial Thearch's face as he looked at Emperor Yi Deng. "Alright, I'll give you a chance to seek revenge! You don't have to wait too long either. Let An Lin progress to the Return to Void Stage first, and you can seek revenge however you want. We won't blame you for bullying the weak. How about that? "
Emperor Yi Deng was fuming with rage.
He was flexing again!
"Alright! It's settled then! "
Emperor Yi Deng swore a dao heart oath that he wouldn't attack An Lin before he reached the Return to Void Stage.
"Will that really be fine? He's a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure, "the Celestial Thearch transmitted his voice to An Lin.
"Don't worry, I've fought more than one or two Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures. After I reach the Return to Void Stage, I'll be able to kill one or two Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures as practice." An Lin's expression was extremely calm.
The Celestial Thearch's heart jolted upon hearing this.
He was being intimidated!
He was a kindred spirit!
An Lin put away his Blood Soul Cross before releasing Cassidy and Tobias to return to Emperor Yi Deng's side.
"An Lin, don't think this is over!" Tobias's expression darkened.
Cassidy placed one hand on her hip and pointed at An Lin with the other. "Next time, I'll capture you, torture your consciousness, and suck your blood dry!"
An Lin pursed his lips. He felt like Cassidy was telling the truth.
"Let's go." Emperor Yi Deng harrumphed coldly before leading the way.
Cassidy, Tobias, and Feng Wuyan hurriedly followed along in fear that they would be captured again if they were too slow.
These mighty figures of the Blood Race, who were powerful enough to shake an entire region, ran away with their faces ashen.
Emperor Yi Deng came to his senses and recalled that not only had he failed to exact revenge, but he had also lost twenty million spirit stones. He was instantly enraged.
"Heehee!"
He slammed a palm into the ground in rage.
Boom! An aura of death surged for over fifty kilometers, and the earth cracked open as countless lives were lost.
At the border of the Dark Marshlands.
An Lin looked up at the Celestial Thearch with reverence in his eyes.
This was the second time. The Celestial Thearch had descended like a Heavenly God to save him from a dire situation.
Countless words converged into one sentence.
"Thank you, Flex King!"
