Chapter 605: Ling Zhan Is Dead
Actually, the most anxious person present was the one responsible for the Underworld Island.
The fourth-tier Mage God in charge looked at the tense standoff between the allied forces and the evil organizations, his eyelid twitching uncontrollably.
Damn it!!
They promised it would just be a competition, no fighting!
Why did it now look like both sides were ready to go all out?
And even worse, each fourth-tier powerhouse looked eager to start something!
Holy crap!
If these fourth-tier powerhouses truly clashed, wouldn't this Underworld Island sink into the sea today!?
But there was nothing he could do.
In a battle below level one hundred, he could easily step in to mediate.
But all of them here were not just level one hundred but also more powerful than him—especially the strong ones from both the allied forces and the evil organizations.
Naturally, he had no place to step in.
Even among fourth-tier powerhouses, there were levels of strength.
Now, all he could do was pray that they wouldn't start a fight.
At this moment.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the exit of the secret battlefield.
Especially the fourth-tier powerhouses of the evil organizations. They appeared to be in a standoff with the allied forces on the surface, but all their attention was actually focused on the battlefield exit.
Their goal was simple—
To kill Ling Zhan!!
Once they succeeded, they would scatter and escape!
Even if the legion commanders of the allied forces tried, they couldn't possibly catch them.
Buzz!!
The enormous arena suddenly began to ripple with spatial energy.
Moments later, four figures appeared before everyone.
And when the entire crowd saw this...
"Gasp..."
"Impossible!!"
The sound of gasps and incredulous shouts echoed!
At the exit of the secret battlefield—
Those four figures were none other than Li Sheng, Otto, David, and Kukulait!
Whoosh!!
Instantly, the entire audience erupted!!
"Ohhhhhh!!"
The followers of the evil organization waved their robes, proudly displaying their emblem for all the world to see!
"Li Sheng! Li Sheng!"
"Otto! Otto!"
"David! David!"
"Kukulait! Kukulait!"
Deafening cheers rang out, chanting each of their names!
"This..."
Meanwhile, on the opposite side.
Shock, disbelief, despair, disillusionment, shattered faith...
Negative emotions were written all over their faces.
Li Chaoge's pretty face turned pale, hopelessness evident in her expression.
"How... how could this happen..."
"How could he lose..."
Beside her, the Nine-Tailed Fox, who shared her deep emotions, also felt a heavy weight in her heart.
She could feel her master's utter despair at this moment.
Sigh...
It seemed her master truly loved this non-specialist; otherwise, she wouldn't be so heartbroken.
And right next to them, equally stunned, were Saint Luni and Saint Lucy, the two imperial princesses.
They stared blankly at the figures on the field, unable to believe the man who had slaughtered them like dogs had actually been defeated!
"No! How could it end like this! How could it..."
"I can't accept this!"
"Is Ling God really gone?! Defeated by those members of the evil organization?!"
"No! I don't believe it..."
Across all the major live streaming platforms worldwide, anguished messages flooded the screens.
Even if they didn't like Ling Zhan, most people didn't want to see the evil organization succeed.
However...
There were a few who had always been jealous of Ling Zhan and now took the chance to type lines of mocking words.
"Hahaha! I knew he was too arrogant! Don't you Dragonfolk have a saying, 'Pride comes before the fall'? Serves him right!"
"Yeah, exactly! Always acting like a big shot, and all those stupid women worshipping him too! Totally ridiculous!"
"What's the difference between fangirling over pop idols and fawning over Ling Zhan? Honestly, I think Ling Zhan deserved it!"
"I don't know about you guys, but I'm thrilled! I might even join the Demon Arrival one day, heh heh!"
"..."
In truth.
At this moment.
The ones most baffled were Jiang Huo, Andrea, Karakto, and the others, who had been prepared to kill.
They had already given up hope on Li Sheng and the others.
After all, Zhong Lan and Adele, the two saintesses, were slaughtered by Ling Zhan like dogs.
Li Sheng, Otto, and the others were only marginally stronger than Zhong Lan and Adele.
To put it plainly—
Ling Zhan used one strike to kill Zhong Lan and Adele.
He would need two to kill Li Sheng, Otto, and the rest.
It was just a matter of whether he needed one extra swing or not.
But unexpectedly...
Li Sheng and the others had actually won?!
It was inconceivable!
Without hesitation, the Grand Heavenly Master Jin Yuchun narrowed his eyes, golden light flashing as he scrutinized the four men.
He used the Taoist skill "Eye of Destiny" to discern any changes in their fate.
If their fate had changed even slightly, he would notice, which would indicate that these four were actually Ling Zhan in disguise.
"Well?"
The Dark Lord Dos asked quietly.
Among them, only Jin Yuchun had the ability to see through such a disguise.
"Everything is normal! The flow of fate matches precisely; there is not the slightest discrepancy. It shouldn't be Ling Zhan in disguise."
Jin Yuchun replied solemnly.
Hearing this, the others' faces lit up with joy.
"So Ling Zhan, that little bastard, is really dead?"
The Undead Ruler Vagg's eyes sparkled with joy.
As a fourth-tier powerhouse of the Dark Church, seeing Saint Kukulait return safely was a source of happiness.
Naturally...
Even more thrilling was the death of Ling Zhan.
That little bastard who had haunted even their nightmares!
"If that's the case, then yes, how else could Li Sheng and the others have come out alive?"
Jin Yuchun nodded.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Seeing that Jin Yuchun had confirmed Li Sheng and the others were genuine, Jiang Huo, the Vice Chief of the Demon Arrival, couldn't contain his grin, saying "good" three times!
It saved them the trouble of having to turn on each other.
Moreover...
It allowed the entire world to witness their cult's might firsthand!
"This..."
Andrea, on the other hand, seemed at a loss.
This three-meter-tall voluptuous Golden Crow lady stood there dumbfounded, her beautiful face in a daze, giving her an oddly cute look.
What in the world is going on?!
She had just been planning to kidnap Ling Zhan, and now they were telling her he was dead?
This world... Is it deliberately trying to make my life difficult?!
That wasn't even the worst part...
If that old woman Cathy learned that the young man had died, she would definitely fly into a rage!!
That old hag had lived for hundreds of years, finally finding a man she liked, only for their evil organization to kill him!
This?
They were definitely going to face retaliation for this!
