Chapter 338 – Repelling the Beast God! System Rewards!

“As long as you get out of Jianghai City, we can coexist peacefully.”

High in the sky, Qin Yang crossed his arms as he slowly laid out his conditions, glancing toward Lishui Lake. “Otherwise, if you dare step into the city proper, I’ll destroy the Blood Spirit Formation. At worst, we’ll both become ordinary people!”

“So get lost now!”

As his words fell, the wind stilled.

“You want me to leave?”

Hearing this, the Beast God’s expression instantly darkened. He stood pondering, scrutinizing Qin Yang up and down, his brows furrowed deeply…

The wording itself wasn’t important to him.

What truly concerned him was the safety of the Blood Spirit Formation.

This was the only Array Eye in the world. If it were truly destroyed, there would be no chance of recovery.

He couldn’t gauge Qin Yang’s intentions.

This little madman was too unpredictable. He didn’t want to gamble the future of the Blood Spirit Formation and could only prepare for the worst.

Moreover.

Jianghai City was merely a small coastal town. No matter how much slaughter he unleashed to vent his anger, it couldn’t compensate for the loss of the Blood Spirit Formation.

Trading a city’s population for the Blood Spirit Formation?

They weren’t worth it!

He would be at a tremendous loss!

“Qin Yang, just you wait.”

With this thought, the Beast God made his decision. Blood mist billowed around him as he stared fixedly at Qin Yang, suppressed killing intent burning in his eyes. “This is the first time I’ve suffered such humiliation. I will devour you alive someday!”

“Tch, enough already… spare me the empty threats. I’ll be waiting.”

Qin Yang raised a hand to cut him off disdainfully, his cold gaze fixed on the Beast God as the myriad lights of Jianghai City twinkled behind him. “I’ll be right here, not going anywhere.”

With that, he raised three fingers and began counting down to drive him away. “Three,”

“Two…”

His imposing aura was overwhelming, accompanied by the distant rumble of wind and thunder, making Qin Yang appear recklessly arrogant.

Utterly presumptuous and audacious!

“You!”

The Beast God was left speechless by the retort, his face growing even uglier. He opened his mouth to say something but, seeing Qin Yang’s fierce expression, swallowed his words.

“Just wait! I will return!”

Whoosh!

A crimson streak of light vanished into the distance.

Only when his figure disappeared into the Great Li Mountains, becoming a mere dot, did the agitated air finally settle.

“Phew…”

Qin Yang remained in place, releasing his spiritual sense to confirm that the Beast God had truly left. Only then did the tension ease from his face, and he finally let out a sigh of relief.

“Finally managed to bluff him into leaving.”

That performance hadn’t been easy.

He had truly been afraid the Beast God would choose mutual destruction, suddenly losing his mind and demanding the entire Jianghai City be buried with him.

Qin Yang glanced down at his still-unhealed injuries. With his current wounded state, if it came to a fight to the death, he likely wouldn’t stand much chance.

“As expected, it’s still somewhat dangerous for my true body to emerge.”

…

Jianghai border.

The blood mist dissipated into the sky. Without the Beast God as its core, the Blood Sea Domain naturally vanished.

The land was left scarred with crisscrossing trenches, mountain slopes eroded, white bones littering the wilderness, and crimson soil stretching as far as the eye could see.

On the city wall, Elder Li and the others exchanged glances, their faces filled with disbelief.

“The Beast God has really left…”

With the Beast God gone, the terrifying pressure lifted instantly. Everyone felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders. Some Star Warriors collapsed where they stood, gasping for breath.

They felt the relief of survivors who had narrowly escaped disaster.”Heaven blesses our Jianghai City!”

Elder Li, tears welling in his eyes, lifted his head to gaze at Qin Yang in the sky, his heart surging with emotion.

Jianghai City had survived another city-destroying crisis!

All thanks to Qin Yang!

Under the blazing sun’s zenith.

Qin Yang’s figure nearly overlapped with the scorching sun, faint coronal light shimmering around him, rendering his form divine.

A crimson-gold dragon coiled around him, lightning dancing eagerly while the Ziwei Divine Sword joyfully spiraled, its sharp Sword Qi crisscrossing to provide protection.

Everyone witnessing this scene gazed with profound admiration.

“Master is so dashing…”

Li Qinghe’s eyes flickered as she cupped her hands like a megaphone, activating Array Inscriptions to stir up the crowd:

“Long live the Young Gang Leader!”

“Long live the True Dragon War God!!”

One voice ignited ten thousand!

Instantly, cheers surged wave after wave, the stationed Star Warriors joining the shouts, turning the Jianghai City Wall into a roaring cacophony!

Xiaobai, blending into the crowd, proudly lifted her chin upon hearing everyone’s praises. “Hehe, that’s this Fairy’s master!”

…

A few breaths later.

Amid the cheering, Qin Yang slowly descended to the center of the city wall. The crowd surged forward like tides but dared not approach too closely, maintaining a respectful distance to observe.

Yet this didn’t dampen the citizens’ enthusiasm!

Every face revealed genuine anticipation.

At this moment, Qin Yang’s status in their hearts soared dramatically!

Rising straight to the peak, he had surpassed even the prestige of the Jianghai Sword God!

Becoming the new symbol of Jianghai!

“Truly worthy of being a disciple of the Exploding Heavens Gang!”

“With such power, why not make the True Dragon War God our city lord?”

“Excellent idea!”

“I heard the city lord himself is a fan of the Exploding Heavens Gang!”

“Hey, don’t say that—the True Dragon War God might not even be interested…”

“…”

“Young friend Qin, we owe this victory to your intervention,”

Elder Li led the group closer, excitedly grasping Qin Yang’s hands. “Allow this old man to thank you on behalf of all Jianghai citizens…”

As he spoke.

Elder Li’s knees bent, nearly touching the ground.

About to kneel.

“Elder Li, you flatter me too much!”

Qin Yang shook his head, swiftly reaching out to support Elder Li’s shoulders. “Scaring off the Beast God wasn’t my achievement alone—it depended on everyone’s full support.”

Without the Star Array, Qin Yang reflected, he could have forced the Beast God to retreat, but never this effortlessly.

Moreover, his goal wasn’t merely to scare him away.

But to injure him!

If the Star Array hadn’t broken through to the mid-stage.

All their preparations would have ultimately turned to fleeting illusions.

“Not at all, young friend Qin. You were the one everyone placed their hopes upon.”

Elder Li stroked his white beard with emotion. “Without your Star Array, no matter how many of us there were, we couldn’t achieve qualitative change. We’d have become mere Blood Offerings for the Beast God, our lives harvested at his will.

Young friend Qin, your Star Array achieved mutual success!”

“Mm, let everyone rest for now.”

Qin Yang nodded upon hearing this, reaching to touch his Star Ring. “Maintaining the star formation came at great cost. I’ve prepared some Pills—could I trouble you, Elder Li, to distribute them later as compensation for everyone?”

As he spoke, Qin Yang prepared to open the Star Ring.

But just then.

Suddenly!

A familiar voice rang out—

“Host actually repelled an Emperor Venerable Realm expert?!””Fighting across stages is simply impossible! You’ve directly skipped several major realms! Could your combat talent be any more heaven-defying?!”

The system’s astonished prompt suddenly erupted:

“Congratulations, Host! Reward amplified a hundredfold! Obtained…”

Amidst the abrupt, incessant mechanical voice and the surrounding cheers, Qin Yang was momentarily stunned before being overwhelmed with joy!
