Chapter 780: Chapter 777: Despicable Choice_1
If their Combined Attack Formation was shattered, what other methods did they have left against Yang Chen?
At least they were self-aware. They knew that once their Combined Attack Formation was broken, although they had the numerical advantage, there was no chance for them to fight against Yang Chen. In an instant, the disciples started to panic and flee in all directions without waiting for Yuan Yong and Fu Qingqing to speak.
The collapse of soldiers was like a mountain falling down, and that must be the meaning of it.
Fu Qingqing and Yuan Yong never thought that their seemingly friendly senior and junior brothers would be so useless at a crucial moment. They fled without ever looking back!
Thinking about this, Yuan Yong, and Fu Qingqing could only feel a chill down their spines. They could clearly feel Yang Chen’s eyes locked on them. Yang Chen was staring at them without blinking!
It was obvious that their final target was still them!
“Run!” Without thinking, Yuan Yong and Fu Qingqing turned around and began to flee.
Compared to Fu Qingqing, Yuan Yong, as a powerful one in the True Martial Realm, was much stronger. In the continuous escape, his speed naturally overshadowed Fu Qingqing’s by a considerable margin.
Fu Qingqing lagged far behind. In the blink of an eye, Yuan Yong had left her far behind in speed. She shouted anxiously, “Senior Brother Yuan Yong, Senior Brother Yuan, wait for me, please!”
Fu Qingqing expected Yuan Yong to be as gentle as usual and come back to help her. But she found that her guess was wrong, Yuan Yong did not do that, he just kept running away and never even bothered to look back at her.
Of course, Yuan Yong did not dare to turn around.
What a joke, they had just tried to kill Yang Chen!
Now that they had lost, would Yang Chen still be merciful towards them?
Yuan Yong dared not challenge Yang Chen’s authority anymore. He was very aware that he was not Yang Chen’s opponent. Escaping was the best option for him now.
Unfortunately, neither he nor Fu Qingqing had any intention of letting each other go, Yang Chen did not plan to let either of them go.
Yuan Yong’s speed was indeed fast, and his thoughts were decisive enough. But no matter how fast he was, how could he outrun Yang Chen’s flames!
The Starfire could be generated anywhere within a radius of several kilometers in the air, that was the characteristic of the Starfire. The most significant advantage of Starfire was its wide range and the unique effect it had when used to chase enemies!
Yuan Yong and Fu Qingqing’s escape routes were intercepted by a large number of Starfires set by Yang Chen.
There was no way out for the two of them.
“You two, want to leave?” At this moment, Yang Chen flashed in front of them, appearing in the high altitude above Fu Qingqing and Yuan Yong, staring dispassionately at the two. “Everyone else can leave, but you two, stay here.”
Fu Qingqing’s delicate body trembled, and she stared dead straight at Yang Chen, “Yang Chen, why are you targeting just the two of us? There are so many disciples in the Huangdao Sect. If you want to vent your anger, why not kill anyone else? Why us two in particular?”
Hearing this, Yang Chen laughed.
Fu Qingqing’s logic was really enough. It seemed that, for the sake of survival, sacrificing other disciples of the Huangdao Sect was acceptable.
What? Are the lives of the other Huangdao Sect disciples worthless, but hers is worth something?
For a moment, Yang Chen was intrigued and said, “Fu Qingqing, your logic is really interesting. Since you want so desperately to live, I’ll give you a choice: your relationship with Yuan Yong seems to be that of a couple. I’m definitely going to kill someone today, which one of you two shall it be? Fu Qingqing, you can choose!”
Without thinking, Fu Qingqing said directly, “Of course, let him die! Yang Chen, I have no real grudge against you. It’s all because of Yuan Yong’s provocation!”
“Fu Qingqing, you despicable woman!” Yuan Yong was furious!
His heart had completely turned cold.
He never thought that Fu Qingqing would betray him so decisively. He had always regarded Fu Qingqing as an obedient junior sister, giving her love and care, even going so far as to stand up for her.
But now, the end result was this!
Facing death, Fu Qingqing had decisively betrayed him.
“Hahaha!” Yuan Yong laughed loudly. “Good, this is truly perfect, Fu Qingqing! You’ve taught me what it means to have a beast’s heart beneath a human face, you heartless, venomous woman!”
At this point, Fu Qingqing’s tone was cold, completely not paying any attention to Yuan Yong’s words. Instead, her watery, tear-filled eyes were locked on Yang Chen, “Yang Chen, if you spare me, I can serve you. I can do anything. To you, my life is worth much more than Yuan Yong’s.”
Yang Chen yawned. Upon seeing Fu Qingqing’s true intentions, he couldn’t help but feel astonished.
He Guang was lucky. Fu Qingqing didn’t ruin him, but Yuan Yong was really done in by Fu Qingqing. Yang Chen had expected Fu Qingqing to betray Yuan Yong, but he didn’t expect her to do it without even blinking an eye. She was direct, neat, and ruthless.
To be able to betray someone to this extent; Fu Qingqing’s skin was thicker than ordinary people could ever imagine.
“Yang Chen, how about it? Spare me, please, don’t kill me.” Fu Qingqing looked at Yang Chen with hope.
Yang Chen smirked. “Alright, I won’t kill you!”
Yuan Yong clenched his teeth, having lost all hope. He knew that it was over.
Yang Chen was ultimately bewitched by Fu Qingqing. Now that Yang Chen didn’t kill Fu Qingqing, wouldn’t it mean that he, Yuan Yong, was doomed to die?
He knew very well that he couldn’t beat Yang Chen when he was only at Half-Step True Martial Realm. Now Yang Chen had reached the Third Layer of True Martial Realm and was even more powerful, there was no way he could stand against him.
But even so, he would fight to the last moment and would not die humiliated.
However, to his surprise, Yang Chen did not choose to attack him. He stared at Yang Chen intently, but did not see any intention of Yang Chen making a move.
Yang Chen just stood there with his hands behind his back, smiling and watching everything unfold.
Fu Qingqing had initially been on the verge of tears with joy when she heard that Yang Chen would not kill her.
Logically speaking, since Yang Chen would not kill her, it was certain that Yuan Yong would die without a doubt.
But who could have known that Yang Chen seemed to have changed his mind? He looked up into the sky and did not even make a move to kill Yuan Yong.
“Young Master Yang Chen, why… why haven’t you taken Yuan Yong’s life yet?” Fu Qingqing was baffled.
Yuan Yong roared, “Fu Qingqing, you venomous woman!”
Fu Qingqing didn’t even glance at Yuan Yong now. In her eyes, he was a man with no more value. Now that she had used him, she could abandon him and move on to the next high branch.
What good was there to say to a man whose death was imminent?
She just stared intently at Yang Chen, waiting for his answer.
However, Yang Chen just smiled slightly, “Kill Yuan Yong? Sorry, though I didn’t say I would kill you, I don’t think I said I would kill Yuan Yong either!”
No one knew what he was planning to do, and both Yuan Yong and Fu Qingqing were confused.
