Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 955 - 953: The Eerie Blade

"So now he really wants to stir things up, only if everyone is in chaos can he take advantage of the situation!"The crowd once again fell into hesitation, obviously not knowing what to do.

For a moment, all eyes were back on Wang Zhan, and one person stood out, then opened his mouth and asked: "Are you sure you’re not lying to us?"

Heh...

Wang Zhan crossed his arms and smiled confidently, then said calmly: "If I were really lying to you, I’m sure you would be outraged. Even if I had a Fire Qilin by my side, you would spare no effort to kill me, so why would I cause such trouble for myself?"

"To be honest, before this, I had indeed seen many ruins and barriers, so I have unique insights on breaking them. It’s not particularly difficult for me, so I advise you to think it over carefully. What do you think?"

A bloodless murder.

After all, Wang Zhan did not intend to reveal his trump card at this moment. He must find every way to make these people fight among themselves so that he could reap the benefits.

The people standing aside looked at each other but no one spoke.

For a moment, they didn’t know what to do.

Li Xiao opened his mouth again and said, "Everyone, don’t believe his words! He’s just joking with you, and what exactly is this guy thinking? I think none of you are very sure. If you really act according to what he says, you are undoubtedly taking a risky gamble."

"And if anything goes wrong with me, you won’t even have the right to regret..."

Clearly, everyone was caught in a dilemma.

Wang Zhan simply ignored them, stepping towards Li Xiao, "Do you think I can’t kill you if they don’t take action?"

In fact, the purpose of Wang Zhan’s words was to create confusion. If he rashly acted against Li Xiao, he would soon become the target of public criticism. Of course, now that they knew his utility, most of them would put all their hopes on him.

This way, he could attack Li Xiao without hesitation.

In an instant, Wang Zhan had already walked up to Li Xiao, then was seen slowly raising his hand, and before Li Xiao could react, he had already struck Li Xiao’s head.

The next second, Li Xiao was seen collapsing to the ground, looking terribly pale...

Meanwhile, Wang Zhan chuckled and said, "Everyone, since the one who should die has already been dealt with, we don’t need to waste any more time. Let’s figure out how to open the ruins in front of us now. I suppose everyone is getting impatient?"

The crowd glanced at each other, their eyes brightened, then they all gathered in front of Wang Zhan, no one caring about Li Xiao’s death.

After all, they came here for a common purpose, and a person’s death doesn’t matter to them.

This was not a problem for them at all, it wouldn’t even affect their overall situation.

Wang Zhan walked step by step to the bronze door, his fingers moved slightly, then a mechanical sound was heard. In an instant, the bronze door opened directly, and with a loud noise, everything inside the bronze door was seen by everyone.

The crowd was immediately wide-eyed, they originally thought Wang Zhan was joking, but they never expected Wang Zhan to actually have such ability...

For a moment, the crowd seemed to have gone mad, rushing rapidly into the bronze door.

Wang Zhan remained quietly in place.

Xiang Tian and another person quickly walked to his side, Xiang Tian was the first to speak: "What is going on? Brother Wang can actually open this bronze door? In that case, why are we letting them profit? If we killed Li Xiao and left, these people wouldn’t be able to enter the bronze door, so they naturally wouldn’t be able to touch the Divine Heart."

"Isn’t what we’re doing now just creating trouble for ourselves?"

Heh...

Wang Zhan just crossed his arms with a slight smile, glanced at the crowd rushing into the bronze door, and then said calmly: "This is not a troublesome thing for us, and if we can get everyone to fight, we can reap the benefits as well? Isn’t this the logic?"

Hearing these words, Li Du nodded, the fact indeed seemed so.

But...

Suddenly, Li Xiao’s expression changed instantly. He then spoke again: "If one of them obtains the Divine Heart, won’t our plan be in vain? All our efforts would be for nothing, and things would become much more complicated..."

"Heh..."

Wang Zhan shook his head with a smile, glanced at everyone, and then spoke again: "This group will definitely not easily obtain the Divine Heart. After all, all of their goals are very unified, aiming to quickly get the Divine Heart. They are all currently standing together and appear extremely united, but if there really is a conflict of interest, they will definitely fall apart."

"By then, so-called allies will crumble directly..."

Wang Zhan aims to dismantle their factions as much as possible. Only by getting everyone to fight can their situation improve.

Li Du gave a thumbs up to Wang Zhan, revealing a mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth as he shook his head and said: "I have to say, you really do have foresight. Although this tactic carries a certain risk, I think it’s pretty good. I quite agree with your opinion."

"In that case, let’s follow them from behind and watch them fight among themselves."

Both nodded in agreement without continuing to talk.

As expected, just as Wang Zhan predicted, soon there were sounds coming from within the ruins. Clearly, they had started fighting.

Wang Zhan smiled with satisfaction and continued to say: "I didn’t expect them to act much faster than we imagined. Could it be because they encountered the Divine Game?"

Hearing this, the eyes of Xiang Tian and his companion lit up. They quickly prepared to head inside.

If they hadn’t seen the Divine Heart, they could tolerate the fighting inside. But since the Divine Heart had already appeared, they absolutely couldn’t stand by and do nothing.

With that thought, Xiang Tian and his companion wasted no time, promptly rushing inside.

Wang Zhan, with a faint smile on his lips, also headed into the ruins.

However, to the surprise of Wang Zhan and his group, the commotion was not due to a struggle over the Divine Heart but rather because they saw a divine weapon.

Wang Zhan’s gaze fell on the divine weapon, a black long saber, currently stuck in the ground. It had blood-red patterns on it, resembling human blood vessels.

It looked chilling.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, unable to discern anything peculiar about the long saber. As he was full of doubt, he heard the voice of the Sword Spirit in his mind, who warned: "Don’t gaze too much at that long saber. I can sense that the saber has been cursed. If you keep staring at it, you’ll likely be influenced by it and go berserk..."

Wang Zhan finally understood why everyone in front was fighting; it was all because of this saber.

Truly hateful.

Just as Wang Zhan was about to intervene, he saw Xiang Tian’s eyes turn red, and he rushed toward the saber. Wang Zhan quickly grabbed Xiang Tian’s arm, and to his surprise, Xiang Tian instinctively attacked him.

Wang Zhan quickly retreated a few steps with a much grimmer face. He looked at Xiang Tian beside him, frowning and said: "What are you doing? Do you know who I am?"

Hearing Wang Zhan’s voice, Xiang Tian’s eyes gradually cleared. He rubbed his own eyes, frowned, and said: "Brother Wang, I don’t know what happened to me. It felt like my body was out of control, wanting to attack anyone!"

"So I’m really sorry..."

Wang Zhan nodded slightly. He patted Xiang Tian’s shoulder and said: "Don’t keep staring at that saber. Keep your distance from it. I can sense that this isn’t an ordinary thing, and it’s extremely rare. If you get influenced by it, it’ll be hard to escape unscathed..."

"Even I might not be able to save you."

Xiang Tian nodded heavily, clearly still a bit shaken.

Li Du, arms folded, said slowly: "How did you know all this?"

Wang Zhan smiled and said: "I have a sharper intuition than most, so naturally, I can see these things. It’s no surprise..."

Li Du wanted to say more, but the words didn’t come out.
