Chapter 1722: Chapter 1718: Jian Sect Envoy (Part 2)
The old man continued, "I actually don’t know why you are here. I only know that you are the chosen ones!"
"Chosen? For what? I am the Second Hall Master of the majestic Shenwu Hall, a Great Luo Powerful One, do I need to be chosen by others?" The burly man roared angrily.
The smile on the old man’s face gradually turned cold, "Don’t mention your identity to me, because everyone who can appear here has a status no lower than yours. As for why you were chosen..."
Just then, a slight tremor came from beneath the floor, as if the entire room was moving on tracks.
Everyone was taken aback, and before they could figure out what was going on, the four diamond-shaped holes in the walls all opened.
The moment they opened, something rushed in.
Moreover, the things that burst into the room from the four holes were not the same.
For example, from the hole on Xue An’s left side, a man with beast tattoos on his face, wielding a mysterious weapon, charged in.
On the right, an Iron Python slithered in, while from the hole behind came a cloud of black mist.
Once these things rushed in, the entire room plunged into chaos.
Many were caught off guard and ended up injured.
For instance, the burly man who had been shouting the loudest had his chest pierced by the mysterious weapon-wielding man.
Blood and screams echoed throughout the room.
Yet the old man burst into laughter, "This is why you were chosen, welcome to the Slaughter Hell, enjoy yourselves!"
The gruesome scene made An Yan tremble uncontrollably, and Xue An sensed this and gently held her hand.
"Don’t be afraid! I’m here!"
"Mm!"
But just then, the Iron Python suddenly lunged forward.
Though the python wasn’t very strong, as a woman, An Yan most feared such creatures.
Unsurprisingly, An Yan was no exception. She closed her eyes in fright as the python flicked its tongue and attacked.
But in the next second, its massive body exploded into pieces in mid-air.
Those nearby let out a soft gasp.
Because none of them saw what happened, resulting in the python turning into a pile of fragments.
This inevitably piqued their curiosity about Xue An and An Yan.
Despite the initial chaos,
None of the things that rushed in were particularly powerful.
Even the burly man who was impaled in the chest wasn’t gravely injured, and instead, he furiously tore the strange man into pieces.
Very soon,
The room returned to calm.
Only the smell of blood filled the room.
Everyone was somewhat out of breath, eyes filled with irrepressible shock.
"Old man, what on earth is all this?" The burly man was almost driven to madness, rushing to question the old man.
The old man replied calmly, "I just said, you are the chosen ones, and now you are in the Abyss’s Slaughter Hell!"
"I don’t believe it; it must be your doing, old man!" The burly man raised his fist to strike.
Just then, a cold voice rang out from the crowd.
"Hold on, he might be telling the truth!"
The burly man paused and turned to see it was a delicate-looking youth, seemingly as fragile as a girl, who had spoken.
He sneered, "Oh? You’re teaching me what to do?"
The youth’s eyes flashed, and without words, raised a hand sending out a sword light.
This sword light appeared instantly before the burly man, aiming at his face.
The burly man was terrified, hurriedly stepped back, narrowly avoiding the sword.
His face turned pale as he shakily said, "A youth sword? Are you from... the Jian Sect?"
The youth nodded.
The burly man immediately shut his mouth, not daring to act arrogantly, obediently stepping aside.
The others in the room were taken aback, and some even had a grave expression.
Because the Jian Sect is renowned across the Multiverse!
This youth is actually a disciple of Jian Sect, which is simply incredible!
An Yan leaned towards Xue An’s ear, whispering, "Hubby, this youth seems to be a girl!"
Xue An smiled slightly, "Oh? How do you know?"
"Look at her hair, it’s clearly styled from frequently wearing a hair bun!" An Yan said confidently.
Xue An chuckled without speaking, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
Because it had been a long time since he heard the name Jian Sect.
Xue An was familiar with Jian Sect.
Because he once trained in Jian Sect back then.
But he wasn’t a disciple of Jian Sect.
In fact, Xue An wasn’t a disciple of any sect.
He carved his own path through sheer willpower and talent.
But his feelings towards Jian Sect were complicated.
He wondered how the founder of Buried Sword Mountain, who guarded the Throne of Ten Thousand Swords alone, was doing now.
Resentment, gratitude, these things mixed together, leaving Xue An momentarily pensive.
At this moment, the youth stepped forward, bowing to the old man, "Jian Sect’s Three Swords Walker Jian ZaiXin, greets the elder!"
Three Swords Walker!
This position is quite high even within Jian Sect.
Bear in mind Jian Sect has eight Walkers, except for the mysterious Seeker Walker, the remaining seven are ranked by their sword power.
Starting from the lowest Seven Swords Apostle to the highest One Sword Skyline.
And this Jian ZaiXin is actually a Three Swords Walker, his strength must be extraordinary.
The old man chuckled, "A descendant of Jian Sect has been swept in as well, looks like this game is getting more interesting!"
"Elder, you keep mentioning a game, who is behind all of this?" Jian ZaiXin asked solemnly.
"Do you think I would know?"
"What about those who were captured before?"
The old man lazily said, "Dead!"
"Dead?"
"Yes! All dead! Because this is the Slaughter Hell, where hell naturally results in death!" The old man cackled.
"Then how do we get out?" Jian ZaiXin asked again.
"No idea! Maybe winning this game will let you leave this cursed place, or maybe you’re trapped from the moment you entered!" The old man spoke indifferently.
"Impossible! I won’t stay in this cursed place; my father is the Court Leader of the Yuanhua Court, how can I die in such a place! Let me out! You bastards! Aren’t you afraid my father will deal with you?"
A woman in the crowd suddenly broke down shouting, continuously hitting the surrounding walls and floor.
Her strength was considerable, but no matter how powerful her strikes, they didn’t cause the slightest ripple on the walls.
Jian ZaiXin frowned slightly, about to speak to stop her.
The woman accidentally triggered something, the diamond-shaped hole in the wall suddenly opened, and a huge suction pulled her in, making her vanish.
