Chapter 5137 Treacherous Scheme

“Yan Hong, is your temper really so uncontrollable?” Li Tianfan interjected just as Yan Hong took out his weapon. “You’ve lost to Long Chen before, so Brother Lu Fan was just speaking fact. If you doubt it, my Chess Sect has a photographic jade recording those events. Would you like me to show it to everyone?”

“You...” Yan Hong’s rage flared. If his soul fragments hadn’t been absorbed by the Yan Xu Divine Lotus, his soul would have long since dissipated. And now, Li Tianfan was threatening to expose that shame to everyone?

“The defeated should reflect on their loss and have a sense of shame. Trying to cover up the truth is not the action of a wise man,” added the icily apathetic Qin Keqing.

It was clear that nearly everyone here sided with Lu Fan. There was no way around it. He was in command, and the activation of the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone rested in his hands.

“Do you understand? Fairy Keqing is saying only an idiot would try to conceal their defeat,” Huang Wudao taunted, directly insulting Yan Hong.

Targeted by everyone, Yan Hong gripped his spear so tightly that creaking sounds echoed, his rage nearly boiling over. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he spat out, “You fools only know how to suck up. Just wait—I’ll repay this humiliation a hundred times over!”

Despite his anger, Yan Hong knew he had to back down. He was confident in his own strength and didn’t fear any of them individually, but facing them all at once was a different story. He had to be patient as he was after the trace of Yan Xu Flame core energy within the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone. He couldn’t miss out on that.

Aware of Yan Hong’s goal, Lu Fan was unbothered by his threat. He knew Yan Hong wouldn’t dare attack and wouldn’t leave until he secured the Yan Xu Flame.

Lu Fan knew that the Yan Xu line was not to be provoked lightly, but as a son of Brahma, his status was equally illustrious. To act humbly would be to lower the dignity of the Brahma line. According to what he knew, the Yan Xu line and the Brahma line chose not to intersect with each other. He also didn’t want to provoke Yan Hong, but he had to express that he wasn’t afraid of him either.

When Yan Hong fell silent, the Celestial race’s Luo Yujiao said, “Brother Lu, I’m amazed you were able to capture every single member of the white dragon race so smoothly.”

Everyone else nodded in agreement. The white dragon race was renowned for their sacred dragon blood energy and formidable combination techniques. Although Bai Yingxue’s power was negligible in front of them, when the entire white dragon race’s sacred energy was unified, they became an unbreakable force.

As a result, while the other major factions might have been able to capture the white dragon experts, it would have come at a cost, with casualties likely in the clash. However, Bai Yingxue and the others stood before them uninjured, as if the battle had ended before it even started. Luo Yujiao and the others couldn’t comprehend how Lu Fan had done this.

With a smile, Lu Fan answered, “The white dragon race is a group of pedantic old fools. We knew what they were planning from the start. Hehe, those old fellows sent these disciples as sacrifices, wanting to use their heads as a wake-up call for the dragon race. Luckily, we had set up a trap before they were transported in. Other than that idiot Long Chen, the rest of the white dragon race was sealed instantly without being able to resist at all.”

Long Chen’s heart sank. The Brahma Pill Valley was truly insidious. Everything had been under their control from the start, and the white dragon race had fallen right into their trap.

Not only were Bai Yingxue and the others being sacrificed on this altar, but Bai Yingxuan and the other elders were also in grave danger. Bai Yingxuan and the white dragon elders could never have anticipated such a thing.

Lu Fan continued, “Everyone here is either a devout follower of Divine Venerate Brahma or a trusted ally of my Brahma Pill Valley. The Brahma Pill Valley has always rewarded loyalty. By using the sacred dragon blood of the white dragon race, we will fully unleash the energy within the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone. After this, the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain will be no more.”

“What?!”

Luo Yujiao, Qin Keqing, Huang Wudao, and the others were visibly shocked by this revelation. Netherdragon Wushang couldn’t help but question, “Isn’t this too great a loss for the Brahma Pill Valley?”

“In order to express the Brahma Pill Valley’s sincerity, this little bit of loss is nothing. Did you hear that? This little bit!” Lu Fan emphasized, ensuring everyone understood his point.

Little bit?”

Was the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone really just a tiny treasure for the Brahma Pill Valley?

Seeing their shock, Lu Fan was very pleased. He continued, “The Brahma Pill Valley’s foundation far surpasses everyone’s imagination. Of course, it even surpasses mine. To our loyal friends, the Brahma Pill Valley will never be stingy. But to our enemies...”

Lu Fan turned toward Bai Yingxue and the others on the altar. With a sinister smile, he added, “My Brahma Pill Valley isn’t soft-hearted. Pigheaded, pedantic fellows like them can vanish from this world for all we care.”

Everyone was taken aback by his words. If the Brahma Pill Valley truly intended to detonate the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone, their gains this time had to be unimaginable.

At this moment, they felt a bit of regret. When the Brahma Pill Valley invited them to the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain, they hadn’t expected something of this magnitude. Although they had known that the benefits would be great, the major factions and races in this world had their own inheritance lands for tribulation. In those places, they could receive their ancestors’ secret arts and divine abilities, as well as their blessing for perfect advancement.

However, those resources were meant to last a long time, not to be unleashed all at once. So, the various factions had divided their members—some stayed behind to undergo tribulation in their own lands, while others were sent to the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain. This not only showed respect to the Brahma Pill Valley but also helped reduce the strain on their own resources.

However, who would have thought that the Brahma Pill Valley would be so generous as to detonate the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone? Had they known this, they would have certainly sent everyone they could. Opportunities like this came once in a blue moon, and once missed, they wouldn’t come again.

As Lu Fan observed their complex expressions, his smile widened, though he sneered internally.

Even if the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone is detonated, without Divine Venerate Brahma’s blessing, how much can you benefit from it?

“Isn’t sacrificing lives for this too cruel?” A voice rang out, causing Lu Fan and the others’ expressions to change.
