"You folks really have quite the high opinion of yourselves."
He impatiently shook the Void Moon Sword in his hand.
"I was the one who broke through the Celestial Dao Barrier, what’s it got to do with you guys?"
"Everyone rushing here back and forth, acting like you’re the protagonists."
With these words, the crowd finally rembered him again.
"I actually forgot about you."
"This kid is pretty odd; to have passed through the No Dao Sword test, there must be sothing special."
"I think we should just take him out first."
These Celestial Venerables ’consulted’ Venerable Xiazhu for his opinion.
The latter glanced at Brother Cheng, still sowhat dissatisfied.
"Why is this variable still lingering around, should have been dealt with sooner."
Obviously, he didn’t consider Jiang Cheng a big deal either.
Just saw him as a minor nuisance.
Celestial Venerable Mieyang chuckled: "I just hadn’t had the chance before."
Then he commanded his subordinates, the Emperor Realm Ninth Layer and Eighth Layer people of Chi Yin Palace.
"Finish him!"
With that, he continued to maintain the siege with the other six Celestial Venerables, keeping a close watch on Venerable Xiazhu.
This was the person they were most wary of; they couldn’t be careless.
As for Jiang Cheng?
The Emperor Realm Eighth and Ninth Layer subordinates should be able to handle him.
Brother Cheng was truly furious.
Not even sending a Supre, not even a Celestial Venerable?
Damn it, how much do they underestimate ?
Just because I’m Emperor Realm Sixth Layer?
This is realm discrimination!
As much as he said so, his actual combat power was just barely enough to fight an Emperor Realm Eighth Layer.
And at this mont, he was surrounded by six Emperor Realm Ninth Layers, along with over a dozen Emperor Realm Eighth Layers.
Unless he used ’Swap’, and that ant swapping with a Celestial Venerable or a Supre, there was no way he could win this fight.
He didn’t have so many Immortal Yuan Points to waste.
So after a brief and intense battle, he was unsurprisingly killed.
After his death, the people of Chi Yin Palace hurried to rummage for loot!
The result... aside from the Void Moon Sword and a storage ring with only a small amount of Source Stones, they found nothing.
Sect Leader Jiang had stored most of his resources in the System Space.
Even if he was killed, it wouldn’t explode into a treasure trove.
This left the experts of Chi Yin Palace deeply disappointed, completely unable to accept it.
The price they paid just to get on board was huge, just waiting for this final kill of Jiang Cheng to recover their losses.
And they got nothing?
"Look again!"
While they ticulously searched this side, over there the seven Celestial Venerables and one Supre were still in a standoff.
Among the eight, aside from Celestial Venerable Mieyang glancing this way, the others didn’t even spare a glance.
After all, Jiang Cheng’s presence didn’t affect the battle situation.
And his death was not beyond their expectations.
Perhaps in the future, they would rember this peerless talent who broke through the No Dao Sword lock, but he would only be rembered as a genius that never matured.
On the other side, after being killed, Brother Cheng heard the system notification.
"Ding! Host has been killed, detecting enemy strength, arranging resurrection plan!"
"Ding! Host repeatedly overlooked, severely incompatible with treatnt deserving of system holder, rewarded protagonist halo for usage!"
"Ding! Host resurrected!"
Protagonist halo?
Is this so kind of big killer?
After resurrection, Brother Cheng habitually activated invisibility, then opened the system item tab.
In the item tab, there was a resplendent nine-colored halo.
At a glance, it looked like the halo over a soul’s head.
With only a single line of description underneath.
Protagonist Halo—Wearing it grants the highest treatnt for a protagonist!
What is this?
Brother Cheng was both amused and helpless. What’s the usage thod?
Am I supposed to throw this halo at people?
He could only click on the protagonist halo.
Soon, the halo automatically floated over his head.
This was it, it really looked like the halo over a soul’s head.
And the ’effect’ of this halo was pronounced too.
As soon as he put it on, everyone’s eyes instantly focused on him.
Even the eight top experts in the standoff weren’t exempt; they all instinctively turned their heads, looking towards the void there.
Over there, Brother Cheng was originally in an invisible state.
But now he didn’t even need to release the invisibility.
Under the halo’s illumination, he couldn’t hide even if he wanted to; the invisibility was directly interrupted.
"Is this really the system plan? Are you sure it’s not ssing with ?"
Everyone present was also incredibly astonished.
The first to speak was Venerable Xiazhu.
"How is Jiang God not dead?"
After saying that, he inexplicably felt sothing was off.
How did he know this kid’s na?
And even called him Jiang God?
On the other side, Celestial Venerable Fenxing, Celestial Venerable Yanji, and the others also frowned one after another.
"Jiang God is too strange!"
"I think we should join forces to slay Jiang God!"
"Right, there’s definitely sothing wrong with this Jiang God!"
After saying these words, they were all puzzled.
Because every sentence inexplicably carried Brother Cheng’s honorary title.
This was certainly not their intention.
Jiang Cheng himself was caught off guard.
What’s the deal?
Could this also be the effect of the protagonist halo?
He wasn’t wrong, wearing the protagonist halo made him the unequivocal main character, the focus of all attention.
The protagonist halo wouldn’t allow anyone to refer to him as "Jiang Cheng", "that kid", or the like!
Whenever Jiang Cheng was ntioned, it would directly filter to Jiang God.
"What’s going on here?"
Everyone was utterly puzzled.
"No matter, kill Jiang God!"
"Everyone on my command!"
"Kill!"
To be honest, Venerable Xiazhu and Celestial Venerable Mieyang, these top experts, hadn’t originally planned to make a move themselves.
They were worried others might seize the opportunity to attack them.
But sohow, when the cry to attack rang out, they instinctively dashed forward.
Not just them, all the Emperor Realm Eighth and Ninth Layers present also charged towards Sect Leader Jiang.
The protagonist halo was there, and no one could underestimate the protagonist; if they were to strike, everyone had to give it their all, this was the respect due to the protagonist.
With this group attack coming, Brother Cheng at the center was speechless.
System, are you really going to screw over this ti?
Although now everyone was scrambling to focus their fire on him, it did look quite grandiose.
But the problem is... where’s my cheat?
The big killer move?
How do I block these attacks?
Just as this thought erged, he saw that distant Gang Feng suddenly, inexplicably roared his way.
In an instant, like a tornado, it swept up all the attacks.
Normally, Gang Feng couldn’t block assaults from rules and origins.
Yet this ti seed like a mutation; it was absurdly strong, even managing to sway the origins, conveniently deflecting the attacks slightly off course.
The strikes were so intense, Gang Feng eventually dissipated, but they veered off from their original target.
Brother Cheng stood motionless, as all the attacks just narrowly grazed past his hair strands.
He was miraculously unscathed!
What’s happening?
Seeing Jiang Cheng still standing there, the experts opposite montarily paused.
Supres targeting an opponent and still missing?
Ridiculous, right?
It was their first ti encountering such a situation.
