Chapter 1821 Jiang He
Chapter 1821 Jiang He
"Not good! He's going to blow himself up!"
Someone noticed something was wrong with the young man and immediately told those around him to run away.
"Everyone, run!"
If someone with such high cultivation were to self-destruct, not only those present would be affected, but also those within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles.
Why did my teleportation talisman stop working?
"Oh no, there's a barrier, we can't get out!" The group was trapped inside the barrier.
As the young man's body swelled more and more and was about to burst, everyone panicked and desperately attacked the barrier, as if breaking the barrier would allow them to escape.
Ruan Yu flashed over and tapped the young man a few times.
The young man's body visibly returned to normal. Someone noticed this and stared wide-eyed, pulling the person next to them to look: "Look, she seems to have stopped that person's self-destruction."
"Prevented the self-destruction? How is that possible! Could she be a god-level powerhouse?"
Only those at the Transcendent God level possess such extraordinary abilities! And not every Transcendent God level expert can do it.
Even though everyone had their doubts, the young man did not actually self-destruct.
The facts were right before their eyes, and they had no choice but to believe them.
"You! What did you do to me?!" The young man was prepared to die, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by someone.
He failed to fulfill that person's instructions and has now fallen into the hands of Ruan Yu and his group. Will his fate be terrible?
Ruan Yu did not speak.
The Gu family's secret guards appeared behind him and forced the young man to kneel down in front of Ruan Yu.
"Let me go!" The young man tried to struggle.
Ruan Yu raised her hand and slapped the young man's face repeatedly.
"Who ordered you to do this? And why?"
Not only did they arrange for someone to self-destruct, but they also secretly set up a barrier to prevent everyone from escaping.
There's definitely more than one accomplice!
The young man had come for her, but the barrier blocked everyone, including the powerful figures here.
Could it be a member of the Yan family who has a grudge against her? Probably not, the Yan family wouldn't drag so many people into this mess.
"I won't tell you!" The young man said fiercely, then reversed the flow of his divine power and exploded to his death.
He was too fast; Ruan Yu never expected this to happen.
Therefore, it was not stopped in time.
"Who exactly wants to kill us!" someone in the crowd shouted angrily.
"The people behind the scenes clearly want all of us dead!"
"We're going to fight the Corpse King this time. The one who least wants us to go is probably the Corpse King himself, right? It can't be that the Corpse King sent someone to do it!"
In an instant, all sorts of ingenious ideas came out of everyone's mouths.
Ruan Yu's eyelids twitched as she listened.
She easily broke the outer barrier with a wave of her hand. "This journey is fraught with danger, both overt and covert. If you wish to leave, I will not stop you."
Indeed, quite a few people have considered backing down.
But once the Corpse King arrives in the human realm, a bloodbath will sweep across the entire Ancient Road Continent!
They will absolutely not allow this to happen!
They want to protect the mainland!
"What are dangers? We all fought our way up to our current status and cultivation level."
"We are not afraid!"
"Yes, we're not afraid! You treacherous villains who scheme behind people's backs, bring on whatever tricks you have up your sleeve!"
Ruan Yu used her mental powers to cover the entire area, trying her best to pay attention to everyone's subtle expressions.
She suspected there was a traitor among them.
There was a person who stood still, her expression revealing nothing, but her heart was beating very fast, clearly indicating that she had done something wrong and was experiencing emotional tension.
And this person was none other than Jiang He.
Without concrete evidence, Ruan Yu wouldn't arrest anyone arbitrarily. Originally, she planned to take everyone through the teleportation array to the Giant Realm, but now she had to change her mind.
Before entering the realm of giants, all those with ill intentions must be eliminated.
Otherwise, once they entered the realm of giants, everyone was working together to fight the Corpse King, and then suddenly someone stabbed them in the back...
Ruan Yu dared not imagine what terrible consequences it would bring.
After much deliberation, Ruan Yu decided to exploit a weakness in Jiang He's defenses.
The departure date is set for two days from now.
The four families worked together and brought out all their treasures, distributing them to everyone. Pills, talismans, magical artifacts... everything was available.
Ruan Yu was even more generous, taking out all the stock she had in her space.
These past two days, she has been working day and night to forge the divine artifact.
Artifacts can greatly enhance a person's combat power. If everyone could obtain an artifact, then they wouldn't be unable to defeat the Corpse King in just two moves.
The four major families don't have much stock, since they each have many disciples within their own families.
Many independent cultivators and even some powerful figures from small sects didn't receive any good rewards.
It's impossible for them not to care. They can accept that no one else has it, but they can't accept that others have it while they don't.
That's just human nature.
When Ruan Yu's things were distributed to them, everyone's eyes lit up.
Jiang He didn't get anything either, and she was even planning to incite others like her who hadn't received anything to leave the group.
To her surprise, a gleaming golden dagger ended up in her hand.
Artifact!
But this is too short and too small! She's not good at close combat, so giving her such a short dagger is completely useless!
Jiang He protested: "I don't want this thing, I don't know how to use it!"
She found Ruan Yu and deliberately used a loud voice to attract everyone's attention: "Give me a different magical artifact."
Jiang He already had her eye on the artifact she wanted, and pointed to the Life-Breaking Bow in Ruan Yu's hand, "I want this one you have."
She said, "I'm a Soul Master, not a Martial Artist, so I can't fight in close combat. I know you mean well by sharing things with us, but you can't give us useless stuff!"
Everyone looked at Jiang He with disapproving eyes.
These are all amazing artifacts, and she actually called them useless?
Moreover, they gave it to them for free, so even if it was some kind of junk, they couldn't find a single fault with Ruan Yu!
Just as someone was about to speak, Ruan Yu smiled: "Can't you control the dagger with your mind?"
Jiang He looked embarrassed and stammered, "I... I'm not very good at it. Of all the weapons, I'm best at using bows and arrows. Why don't you trade with me?"
She could tell, of course, that the Life-Breaking Bow in Ruan Yu's hand was definitely above the level of a super artifact!
She was extremely envious of such treasures.
Since Ruan Yu has been so generous, giving each of them a divine artifact, it shouldn't be a problem to exchange it for a super divine artifact, right?
"What a coincidence, I only know how to use a bow."
"You...!" Jiang He was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder when she saw that she wouldn't budge.
Feeling embarrassed by the strange looks from so many people, Jiang He put away her dagger, turned around and left: "Fine, don't change it then! How stingy! I'm not going!"
