Chapter 258 – Meng Tianxuan: I Want to See If You Can Blow Me Up Today!

Above the high altitude, streaks of starlight emerged. Ye Fan and Meng Tianxuan stood face to face, their skin fissures widening as visible spatial fluctuations rippled outward…

“Madmen! You’re all madmen!”

“You lunatics from that gang!”

Watching Ye Fan’s frenzied expression, the Supreme Alliance Leader inwardly cursed in fury, further confirming his suspicions, “This so-called Exploding Heavens Gang is absolutely deranged!”

To willingly self-destruct without regard for their own lives?

You may not value your lives, but this Alliance Leader certainly values his!

“Ye Fan, let’s talk this through!”

At this thought, Meng Tianxuan’s courage faltered. Facing Ye Fan before him, his voice completely softened as he spoke,

“How about we cease hostilities here? This venerable one acted rashly earlier—there must be some misunderstanding…”

As his words faded.

“……”

Ye Fan remained silent upon hearing this, showing no intention of moving.

Yet the fluctuations of Star Power around him grew even more violent!

Boom! Boom!

His physical body disturbed space.

The air around him trembled, forming visible shockwave ripples that cascaded outward in concentric circles, distorting the Space Law.

The void subtly fractured, its power slowly reverberating.

“Now you beg for mercy… isn’t it far too late?”

Ye Fan looked down at Meng Tianxuan through lowered eyelids, fissures spreading across his face like branching tree limbs, brilliant starlight leaking from within his body.

At any moment, it could lose balance and detonate.

Seeing this, Meng Tianxuan dared not make sudden movements. With Ye Fan right before him, any explosion would inevitably affect him.

This was a self-destruction at the Supreme Realm!

He couldn’t afford to gamble…

“Ye Fan, there’s no need for us to end things so disgracefully.”

Meng Tianxuan questioned sternly, attempting to stabilize his emotions first, “Considering you’ve reached the Supreme Realm, you have a bright future ahead… why sacrifice it all?”

“Tch, enough Alliance Leader. If you’re trying to shake my resolve… just give up,”

Ye Fan chuckled dismissively upon hearing this, naturally seeing through his intentions.

Now that “Mutual Destruction with Heaven and Earth” had been pushed to its limits, only the final trigger remained to fully detonate.

Meng Tianxuan had already begun to panic, even resorting to pleading.

“You… do you truly desire nothing at all?”

Hearing this, Meng Tianxuan’s heart sank into despair.

What he feared most was encountering such madmen.

And now, this Exploding Heavens Gang was full of them!

Unwilling to accept this, he pressed again: “For the sake of a junior from the Exploding Heavens Gang, is it worth making you self-destruct… is it truly worth it?”

“Worth it?”

Ye Fan replied coldly, glancing back at Qin Yang behind him:

“You’ve repeatedly sent people to Jianghai, disturbing the peace of our Exploding Heavens Gang disciples. This isn’t about worth—it’s about your constant, repeated provocations…

If I don’t teach you a lesson this time… you’ll inevitably harass our Exploding Heavens Gang again in the future!”

“Ye Fan, must you be so extreme?”

Meng Tianxuan frowned deeply upon hearing this.

Teach a lesson?

Your idea of a lesson is immediate physical self-destruction?

Isn’t this too ruthless!

Meng Tianxuan fell silent, then tried persuading again:

“The gap between Earth Venerable and Celestial Venerable Realm is vast. Even if you self-destruct, you can’t kill this venerable one, right? Why waste this futile effort?

As long as this venerable one survives, I can still recover using heavenly treasures. But your self-destruction is different! If you die, there’s no chance of recovery!”

As he spoke, Meng Tianxuan took a step forward, staring intently into Ye Fan’s eyes as he demanded:”How difficult is it to cultivate to the Supreme Realm? Are you truly willing to abandon this lifelong cultivation for a junior?”

“Enough! Save your breath, you old dog!”

Ye Fan, channeling his last remnants of Star Power, sharply interrupted, “Do you think everyone is like you—outwardly strong but inwardly weak, only fit to be a hypocrite?”

“Today, you’ve insulted my disciples! You will definitely learn your lesson!”

The next moment.

Boom!

Ye Fan charged directly toward Meng Tianxuan’s vital point, his robes rustling fiercely in the wind.

Wherever he passed, space shattered like mirrors, and terrifying explosive roars shook the heavens!

“Damn it!”

Meng Tianxuan’s face changed dramatically as he hastily summoned Star Power to block.

But it was ultimately too late!

Ye Fan’s figure drifted ethereally, accurately arriving before his chest, igniting his bodily fuse and pushing Mutual Destruction with Heaven and Earth to its extreme.

Boom!!

Streaks of lightning erupted!

Temperatures soared by thousands of degrees, blasting open a massive indigo thunderous crater.

Blinding starlight shot skyward, turning the world into a vast whiteness, with killing intent spreading for miles. Ye Fan and the Supreme Alliance Leader’s figures collided, submerged within the dazzling radiance.

……….

As this shocking scene concluded, starlight burst forth across the sky.

“No…”

Elder Li gazed at the spectacle in the sky, his face filled with grief.

Others in the room also shed tears, shaken by the scene before them. In an instant, sobbing sounds spread throughout the room.

Another Supreme Realm expert had departed…

Including the previous Jianghai Sword God and others, three Supremes had now fallen in Jianghai. Jianghai City had long become a graveyard for Supremes.

“Master Uncle… have you left us too…”

Li Qinghe’s eyes dimmed, the mournful cries echoing in her ears accentuating the current sorrow.

But amidst her grief, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if she had seen this somewhere before.

“This move… feels somewhat similar to Grandmaster’s…”

Wiping her tears, Li Qinghe couldn’t shake the feeling of déjà vu.

This inexplicable familiarity plunged her unwittingly into deep thought…

……

……

The massive shockwave propagated across the sky, reaching thousands of miles away.

Meanwhile,

At the casualty gathering point arranged by the Police Inspector.

Stretchers covered the ground.

Police Inspector team members lay resting everywhere. Since Meng Tianxuan activated his Dharma Body with tremendous power, affecting many people, this had become a temporary rest area filled with those injured as a result.

Some resting officers looked up, observing the strange phenomena in the apartment direction, so shocked they even forgot their pain.

“Good heavens! This is even more intense than when the Arrow God self-destructed!”

“Do you think… this time we can kill the enemy?”

“Perhaps this isn’t self-destruction at all! It’s basically like dropping a nuclear bomb!”

“Alas, another Supreme has fallen…”

“…”

Xia He leaned against an armored vehicle, cigarette in mouth, watching the sky with deep concern, his worries growing.

The self-destruction’s power was immense—even from miles away, he could feel its terror. He wondered how Old Qin was faring now…

“Please don’t let anything happen to you…”

Xia He exhaled smoke, squatting on the ground with heavy thoughts, and took out his Police Badge.

He sighed silently.

He had thought that after joining the Police Inspector, he would have the strength, and had previously urged Old Qin not to slack off.

But now, he realized…

Not only was he far from surpassing Old Qin, he couldn’t even see his tail. That guy had long left him far behind, reaching heights he could never hope to match!The Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles, alchemy, top-tier Supreme strength… Even brewing tea was an unparalleled skill!

He knew a little bit of everything, yet the battle he was currently involved in had escalated beyond his ability to intervene.

If Qin Yang hadn’t stepped in to help back then…

He’d probably still be a low-ranking police officer, right?

“How can the gap between people be so vast?”

Xia He put away his police badge, looking up at the battlefield above the apartment complex. The white light reflected in his pupils. “Old Qin, you better come back alive. I’m still waiting to grab skewers with you after your shift.”

“Captain Xia, stop watching. You should rest for a while.”

A trembling officer approached, placing a hand on his shoulder. “You’ve been standing here motionless since the beginning. Please take a break.”

As the words fell.

“Sigh…”

Xia He sighed again, filled with helpless melancholy. “You guys don’t understand my sorrow… I can’t be of any help…”

Just as he sighed.

Whoosh!

A piercing sound tore through the air.

All officers looked up to see a figure streaking through the sky like a beam of light, heading straight for the apartment complex.

“Hmm?”

Xia He, cigarette dangling from his lips, glanced at the figure and immediately frowned.

“Liu Wushuang?”

“Didn’t this old guy just leave? Why is he coming back now?”

……

Miles away, a blue light swept past towering buildings.

Liu Wushuang darted between structures, rushing urgently toward the apartment complex.

He had initially heeded the warning and quickly left the apartment area, but after hearing the tremendous explosion, he couldn’t resist turning back.

His worst fear had materialized!

“Another Exploding Heavens Gang member self-destructed…”

When Liu Wushuang reached a building near the apartments and witnessed the dazzling white light firsthand, his heart shook violently, old memories resurfacing.

Once again…

The unbearable past flooded back –

Lishui Lake… self-destruction… Jianghai Arrow God…

An identical scenario!

Days ago, the Arrow God had self-destructed at Lishui Lake, blowing the Beast God Sect’s demonkin to pieces!

Even after all this time, Liu Wushuang remembered every detail vividly!

Every aspect of the Arrow God’s death was branded in his heart, impossible to forget.

But now.

The familiar scene was repeating itself.

Only.

This time the opponent had become the Supreme Alliance!

History seemed to be cycling – what has happened before will happen again.

“Sigh…”

Liu Wushuang gazed at the approaching white light, his expression dazed:

“Daring to push a Celestial Venerable Realm expert to this extent… Are these Exploding Heavens Gang members truly unafraid of death?”

……

Moments later.

Above the apartments, the aftermath of the self-destruction faded, the smoke clearing.

Everyone watched the battle intently, countless eyes focused on the figures, hoping to see Ye Fan emerge.

But the next moment.

As the thick mist parted.

The first to emerge wasn’t Ye Fan.

“Cough… cough…”

Meng Tianxuan appeared through the smoke, his robes torn to shreds, covered in dust and grime, looking utterly disheveled.

When everyone saw his wounds, they collectively gasped.

Right in the center of Meng Tianxuan’s chest gaped a bloody hole, interwoven white bones visible, clearly revealing the organs within his thoracic cavity, his heart pulsating vigorously.

He looked completely different from his former majestic self.”Damn it, the Exploding Heavens Gang really are all lunatics!”

Meng Tianxuan pressed his hand against the bloody hole in his chest, channeling his laws to repair the wound, his pupils reflecting indelible fear as he felt lingering terror.

That was truly close!

He had almost fallen for the Exploding Heavens Gang’s trap!

If he hadn’t promptly activated his Star Power just now to mitigate most of the damage, he would have truly been finished here.

Even so, Ye Fan’s self-destruction had still inflicted massive physical damage!

“But at least… this Alliance Lord survived…”

Meng Tianxuan’s expression suddenly darkened as he dispersed the surrounding Star Power and snorted coldly: “A mere few Supreme Realm cultivators think they can kill me? Pure fantasy!”

Just then.

“Oh? Is that so?”

A cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

Like a silent specter.

It instantly made Meng Tianxuan shudder all over.

“Who’s there?!”

Meng Tianxuan whirled around to look.

Only then did he discover that Lin Dong had already been standing several meters behind him, arms crossed, watching him with an icy gaze.

Killing intent permeated the air…

Like a hunter closing in on his prey.

Without hesitation, Lin Dong charged toward Meng Tianxuan, igniting the second Mutual Destruction with Heaven and Earth. In that instant, starlight blazed brilliantly!

“Madman!”

Meng Tianxuan roared in fury, but his vision was already swallowed by white light. His indignant howls reverberated across the sky, echoing throughout all of Jianghai City!

“Let this Supreme see if you can actually blow me to death today!!”
