Chapter 568: A Chance to Share Tea
Chapter 568: A Chance to Share Tea
“Saint complex! Absolute saint complex! Showing mercy in a deathmatch? Disgusting!”
“Exactly! Look at how many of our people that witch has killed!”
“Could he have actually fallen for that demoness?”
“Damn it, I’m done being a fan! How could he show mercy!?”
“...”
That’s just how people online are.
The moment something doesn’t go their way, they flip their stance and start criticizing like crazy.
They don’t care about the reasoning, planning, or strategy behind the decision.
As long as venting makes them feel good.
This led to an online flame war, with steadfast supporters of Ling Zhan clashing against those accusing him of being soft-hearted.
Meanwhile.
In the arena.
As Ling Zhan returned to the waiting area, many gazes filled with doubt and confusion followed him.
Li Chaoge quickly approached him, accompanied by the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox.
Saint Luni and Saint Lucy also came closer, followed by a group of Light Church followers clad in white robes.
These followers wore expressions of anger and indignation, ready to confront Ling Zhan.
If Ling Zhan had shown mercy to someone else, they might not have reacted so strongly.
But sparing the sworn enemy of their church? That was a whole different matter.
He could have easily eliminated this troublesome Holy Daughter of the Dark Church.
Countless Light Church powerhouses had fallen at Livia’s hands.
And now, in front of so many witnesses, he publicly spared her, merely imprisoning her in a spatial cage. This was unacceptable!
They demanded that Ling Zhan hand her over to the Light Church for punishment.
Saint Luni and Saint Lucy weren’t there for the Light Church’s cause—they were just curious about why Ling Zhan showed mercy.
As for the notion that Ling Zhan might have feelings for Livia...
Ha!
Not a chance.
Li Chaoge stopped in front of Ling Zhan, but before she could say anything...
A young Light Church follower pointed at Ling Zhan and shouted in an aggressive tone:
“Ling Zhan! Hand over that evil Holy Daughter immediately!”
“I warn you, don’t provoke our Light Church by sheltering such a person!”
“If you insist on defiance, the great Light God will surely punish you!”
As these words left his mouth...
Saint Luni frowned immediately.
She was about to scold this insolent fool.
But in the next moment...
Bang!!
A muffled sound echoed.
Everyone watched as the Light Church follower was sent flying, embedding into a wall with a heavy thud. His aura instantly weakened, and he was on the brink of death.
Looking back at Ling Zhan...
He hadn’t moved a muscle.
He merely looked at everyone indifferently.
Yet, a suffocating pressure filled the air, weighing on everyone’s hearts.
Although no one saw Ling Zhan move or sensed any trace of his attack...
They all knew the gravely injured follower was undoubtedly his doing.
Li Chaoge, the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, and the Saint Luni sisters maintained a calm exterior, but inside, their hearts were pounding.
This guy...
How had he become so terrifyingly powerful!?
Back during the global Beast Combat Tournament, even though they couldn’t beat Ling Zhan, they could still follow his moves.
But now, just over two months later...
While they struggled to enhance their strength with various resources poured into them...
Ling Zhan’s power had skyrocketed like a rocket!
Now they couldn’t even detect his movements!
Was this really just two months? Not two years!?
They’d bet that with his current strength, defeating them would be effortless!
At the same time...
A troubling thought arose in their minds.
Were they... truly worthy of a man like this?
In the past.
These prodigious women would think about which man in the world could possibly be worthy of them.
But now, Ling Zhan’s presence forced them to reevaluate themselves.
The conclusion was utterly shocking.
In terms of strength, Ling Zhan far surpassed them.
In terms of looks, Ling Zhan was leagues above most men, undoubtedly the most handsome they had ever seen.
In terms of demeanor, his icy, commanding aura was irresistibly alluring to countless women.
In terms of background... with his unparalleled talent and future potential, he didn’t need to join a prestigious family—he would become one himself!
In terms of connections, the four Archmages, the Rotten Witch’s favor, the admiration of the Purple Crystal Empire’s level-100 Martial God, the support of Dragon Kingdom’s Four Sacred Beasts...
Let alone them as heiresses and princesses of noble families.
Even superpowers would have to tread carefully around him.
To make a move against this seemingly nineteen-year-old man, they’d have to think twice.
Before they knew it, this young man had grown into someone who commanded respect from all.
How long had it been?
Since he started university, it had only been six months!
Just one semester!
And to think they had subconsciously regarded Ling Zhan as merely a “talented individual.”
“Saintess...”
The Light Church followers still hadn’t noticed the subtle shift in the atmosphere.
They foolishly looked to Saint Luni.
However.
Saint Luni turned her cold gaze toward them, dropping her usual gentle and compassionate demeanor. With an icy tone, she uttered one word:
“Leave!!”
The followers: “...”
Ling Zhan indifferently watched the scene unfold. When he looked at Saint Luni, he spoke calmly:
“You’re the Saintess, right? Then do me a favor—tell your Light Church leader that if I ever get the chance, I’d like to visit your headquarters for tea.”
“Of course, with my current strength, it’s probably rude to speak to a level-100, tier-four leader like this. You can treat my words as nonsense if you wish.”
With that, Ling Zhan smirked faintly.
However.
Saint Luni didn’t dare dismiss his words.
Her expression grew incredibly serious as she looked at Ling Zhan and asked, “I don’t quite understand, Mr. Ling Zhan. What has the Light Church done to offend you?”
At this moment.
She even subconsciously used the respectful term “Mr.”
If anyone else had dared to threaten the Light Church like this...
Saint Luni would have simply scoffed and sneered.
But this non-specialist...
Was given the highest level of attention by the Demon Arrival Organization, even prompting them to host this deathmatch at all costs.
That spoke volumes.
