Chapter 64: What You Said Makes Sense, But I Don’t Accept It

"Kill...kill them all?"

The once confident crowd was stunned upon hearing the voice from the coffin.

From what he was saying, it seemed like he didn't take these Northern Region prodigies seriously at all!

"Roar—"

"Roar—"

The two beasts at the Extinction Realm also seemed to sense the intentions of the man in the coffin. They no longer lay prostrate but stood up, letting out two low growls toward the crowd.

The heavy rumbling sound even made the ground tremble slightly.

Only then did the crowd realize that Leng Yanran had brought two Extinction Realm beasts!

Setting aside the strength of the man in the coffin, just those two beasts were enough to slaughter everyone present!

For a moment, panic spread among the group.

They couldn't help but glance at Leng Yanran, hoping to gauge her reaction.

"Fairy Leng, we're all from the Northern Region, there's no need for this, right?"

"If Fairy Leng insists on this, won't she be offending the entire Northern Region?"

"At worst, we could offer some other Artifact as a token of appreciation for entering the second stage. What do you think?"

"After all, some people only got Yellow-grade Artifact; not everyone received rewards of profound-grade Artifact."

"What do you think, Fairy Leng?"

Suddenly, a young man among the Northern Region's prodigies stepped forward and made a suggestion.

The crowd looked at the young man and instantly brightened up.

"Zhang Guangjing, the top disciple of the Hongguang Sect!"

"That makes sense. I'm willing to offer some Artifacts and Heavenly Materials as a token of appreciation."

"Exactly, I agree with Brother Zhang's suggestion!"

In no time, the crowd seemed to find their backbone, and they all proposed following Zhang Guangjing's suggestion—offering some Artifact as a gift to Leng Yanran.

Leng Yanran, being watched by everyone, slightly frowned.

"Tsk tsk tsk, do you people even listen to what you're saying?"

"Offend the entire Northern Region?"

"Fairy, you just need to say the word, and after this secret realm ends, I'll uproot every single force in the Northern Region."

Hearing their words, the man in the coffin found it utterly ridiculous. Was the Northern Region really that strong?

So what if they offended every single force in the Northern Region?

Which force in the entire Northern Region could withstand a barrage from a Heaven-rank formation?

Using this to threaten Leng Yanran—how laughable!

"What was your name again?"

"What you said does make sense."

Leng Yanran's frown suddenly relaxed as she looked at Zhang Guangjing and said.

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Leng Yanran still had some concerns.

Brother Zhang was truly impressive!

"Hehe, I'm grateful that Fairy Leng is willing to accept Zhang's proposal," Zhang Guangjing said, feeling the respectful gazes from those around him. He couldn't help but stand a little taller.

To be honest, when he first stood up and said those words, he wasn't all that confident. But he saw it as an opportunity to show off and make a name for himself.

If things worked out, he'd be able to impress the Northern Region's prodigies!

It looked like he had made the right bet!

"No, no, you've misunderstood."

"I just said what you said makes sense, not that I'm accepting your proposal."

Leng Yanran's words left everyone who had planned to offer up some useless Artifact and Heavenly Materials in a daze.

What did she mean by this?

Zhang Guangjing's suggestion made sense, but she wasn't accepting it?

"What you said is true. Some only got Yellow-grade Artifact, and it wouldn't be fair to those who received profound-grade Artifact."

"In that case—"

"Everyone should offer up Heavenly Materials equivalent in value to mid-grade profound-grade Artifact. If what you've obtained isn't enough to match that, you can make up the difference with other materials."

"If anyone refuses, they're free to leave. I'm sure your sects will have some lively company on the road to the underworld alongside the Luo Heaven Sect."

After saying this, Leng Yanran no longer paid attention to the group and instead focused on reading the rules for the second stage.

The man in the coffin slightly bowed toward her departing figure, revealing a sinister grin.

Now this was more like it. Why show mercy to these ants?

If it weren't for Leng Yanran, the demoness, being present, he wouldn't just be asking for Artifact; he would have gladly taken their flesh and blood too!

The crowd fell into silence after hearing her words.

A moment ago, they had rallied together in an attempt to resist Leng Yanran.

But what she had just said reminded them of a brutal fact.

Luo Heaven Sect had been destroyed by this demoness right before their eyes. Was any of their own forces stronger than Luo Heaven Sect?

Leng Yanran had the power to annihilate one of the four great sects of the Northern Region, which meant she was fully capable of wiping out any of their sects as well!

What could they possibly use to threaten her?

Leng Yanran's words felt like a bucket of cold water poured over them, clearing their minds.

Some, after piecing together the full picture, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

What had they just done?

They had tried to stand against Leng Yanran?

Outside the secret realm, Leng Yanran's mysterious master had killed the Eastern Region's ancestor's avatar with just one finger!
