Zhan Shen: It’s Just a Sacrifice, How Can I Become a Villain?

286: Are you worthy?The three Nine Pillar Gods, their Faces bruised and swollen, looked back at the deep pit still emitting black smoke, and a feeling of lingering fear rose in their hearts.

”That guy, he should be dead, right?” Geb asked.

”I don’t know. Even if he’s not dead, he must be severely injured. That guy has a way to hide his life aura; I can’t sense him.” Aisis’s expression was a bit helpless. It was her first time seeing such a Mysterious method.

”This place is not suitable for staying long. We don’t know how Nut is doing. We need to hurry back,” Tefnut reminded.

The other two Nine Pillar Gods nodded. Their most important task now was to bring Shu back.

”Alas, if Nut sees us in this disheveled state, she’ll probably mock us mercilessly...” Geb said in a deep voice.

The other two did not want to take up this topic and turned to gallop towards Xuehan Pass.

Lu Wuwei also arrived beside Ye Fan at this moment, looking at the disappearing Egyptian Outer Gods, and asked in confusion,

”Why did they go back so quickly?”

”Perhaps, it’s related to that anomaly.” Although Ye Fan was not clear about the reason for their departure, the direction they left was where Xuehan Pass was located.

Now, only Guan Zai and the injured Master are there, Zhou Ping is missing, and the situation at Xuehan Pass is very critical.

He must rush back to support, ”Lu Wuwei, I’m rushing back to Xuehan Pass now. I’ll trouble you to investigate that battlefield.”

”I understand, Commander. You must be careful.”

Ye Fan nodded and returned the way he came.

Lu Wuwei sighed, ”I hope this isn’t a wasted trip.”

With that, he got on the yellow electric scooter and drove towards the thick smoke.

At the bottom of the enormous deep pit, the rock layers were completely melted by the high temperature generated by the explosion.

Dark red magma surged, and suddenly, a bluish-black hand stretched out from within the magma.

Immediately after, Song Zhong’s head also emerged from it.

”Ptooey!”

Song Zhong spat out a mouthful of magma, ”So this is what it feels like to bathe in magma.”

Just before the explosion, Song Zhong had hidden underground.

However, even with the protection of the earth, the aftermath of the explosion caused him some injuries.

But under the powerful recovery ability of Flesh White Bone, these injuries were nothing.

Song Zhong leaped out of the magma and onto the surface.

Looking at the land within a hundred-kilometer radius that had been completely blown apart, he exclaimed, ”Making such a big commotion should be enough to deceive those Egyptian Outer Gods, right?”

Just then, Song Zhong heard the honking of an electric scooter.

He looked back to see Lu Wuwei gripping the brakes tightly. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

...

Above Xuehan Pass, with the combined efforts of Guan Zai, Master, and the Special Squad, the Mysterious beast tide was finally brought under control. Of course, the Night Watcher side also paid a considerable price.

”I wonder how Commander Ye is doing?” Master asked.

”No news is the best news.” Guan Zai looked at the sky, ”Half an hour has passed, and Zhou Ping still hasn’t come out.”

Master knew that Guan Zai was very concerned about Zhou Ping’s safety, so he comforted him, ”Look at it this way, Nut hasn’t come out either, which at least means Zhou Ping is still alive.

Moreover, I believe that with his ability, self-preservation is absolutely not a problem.”

Guan Zai nodded. It was no exaggeration to say that in their eyes, Zhou Ping was the hope of the Great Xia humans.

For so many years, only he had come closest to that unscalable threshold.

Suddenly, Master’s eyes became sharp.

”Look, there’s a disturbance there.”

Upon hearing this, Guan Zai looked up at the sky.

Indeed, high in the sky, a black crack suddenly appeared, and a violent energy fluctuation poured out from that black crack.

Guan Zai’s Face lit up with joy. From that energy fluctuation, he sensed that familiar Sword Qi.

”It’s Zhou Ping!”

Before Guan Zai finished speaking, the crack seemed to be torn open by an invisible large hand.

Two figures flew out of it.

The first to emerge was Zhou Ping. At this moment, his Face was ashen, and his clothes were stained with blood.

Although his appearance was disheveled, his eyes were full of vigor.

Then, Nut, the God of the Sky, also flew out.

Her clothes were already tattered, and there was a deep, bone-visible wound on her ribs. The wound emitted wisps of Sword Qi, and blood flowed from it.

Nut gnashed her teeth as she looked at Zhou Ping. She had not expected that one day she would be injured by a human, and so severely at that.

”Zhou Ping, I remember your name. You are the first human to injure me.”

Zhou Ping gently stroked his long sword and said indifferently, ”So, gods are nothing more than this.”

”You...” Nut was choked by Zhou Ping’s words. She had been beaten into such a sorry state, so there was really nothing to refute.

But this anger was stifled in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

”Zhou Ping, don’t think you’re triumphant just because you injured me. Humans are ultimately different from gods. Your lifespans are too short.

Although you injured me, I admire you greatly.

If you are willing to be my agent, I will grant you a longer lifespan.

Even if you cannot become a god, isn’t it good to live longer?”

Only such a superior tone could help Nut regain some Face.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ping glanced sideways at Nut and sneered, ”Be your agent? Are you even worthy?”

Although Zhou Ping was socially awkward, this was when his Battle Intent was at its peak. As the Sword Saint of Great Xia, how could he possibly be an agent for some damned god?

Zhou Ping’s voice echoed above Xuehan Pass.

All the Night Watchers were completely stirred up after hearing these words.

”As expected of our Great Xia’s Sword Saint, so resolute.”

”I’m not very educated, so all I can say is, awesome.”

”Hahaha, where did this bumpkin god come from, wanting our Great Xia’s Sword Saint to be your agent? You’re dreaming.”

Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan and others also looked at this Great Xia Sword Saint in shock, the awe in their hearts lingering for a long time.

”In the future, if my child can have half the backbone of the Sword Saint, I’ll be content,” Cao Yuan said with emotion.

”You’re thinking too much.” An Qingyu rubbed his eyes, ”You don’t even have a partner, and you’re already thinking about children?”

Galan looked at Lin Qi Ye with a fiery gaze. Suddenly, her Face flushed, and she quickly lowered her head, not knowing what she had thought of.

Nut’s Face turned from green to pale. She heard the sneers and mockery of the Night Watchers below clearly.

It was one thing for Zhou Ping to say such things, but what were they, to dare mock a god?

In her rage, the wound on her ribs worsened again, and a large amount of blood spurted out.

Just then, three small black dots appeared in the distance.

Nut’s Face lit up with joy. Her reinforcements had arrived.
