Rise of the Demon God

Chapter 1348 - 1348: Surrendere



"You can be sure that you'll survive. And then you can negotiate the next part," he added. 

"No. I want something to be sure that you won't kill me if I take you there. Or I'm not telling."

"Alright. I was actually thinking about letting you live if you take us there, but I've actually changed my mind.  You don't deserve to live." Zhu Chang tightened his grip. 

"Now, I change the offer. If you want to die a quick death, take us there. And if you want a brutal and slow death, then don't take us there. I'll give you three seconds to decide, and then you won't have the option even if you wanted to."

"As for how painful of a death I can give you, let me show you."

Zhu Chang raised his hand to reveal a small insect in his hand. 

The small insect was so tiny that it was barely even visible, but the Heavenly Warrior's eyes opened wide in shock as he saw the insect. 

The insect had the body of a crab and the Head of a Caterpillar. It looked odd and weird, but it was enough to make the Heavenly Warrior become pale. 

"Y-you. How do you have that?"

"This is my tamed beast. Why won't I have it?" Zhu Chang asked, smirking. 

The beast in his hand was one of the rarest beasts in his home world, let alone here. But this beast was something that was enough to scare even the Heavenly Warriors. 

In the Book of Beasts that was compiled by a Heavenly Scholar decades ago, this insect was mentioned. 

It was in the book when talking about the most dangerous beasts. The insect in the hand of Zhu Chang was a powerful beast that was one of the most dangerous beasts in that book. 

It had the second highest position in the ranking of dangerous creatures. It was said that if a person saw this, he should stay as far away as possible since this beast was the most poisonous creature in existence. 

It was said to give a death so painful that it could even scare the demons, let alone the Heavenly Warriors. And for someone to take this beast? Just who was this young man?

"So, what do you want? An easy death by me or a fun one with this beast?" Zhu Chang asked. "Your count begins now."

"One..."

"Fine! Just promise me you won't kill me, and I'll take you there!" The Heavenly Warrior yelled. 

"That's not an option anymore. You shouldn't have selected that when you had the chance. Now you need to choose what type of death you want," Zhu Chang declared. "Two..."

"Stop! I promise I will take you there! I'm happy doing that!"

"Thr-"

"I select easier death!" By the time Zhu Chang reached the final count, the Heavenly Warrior had started sweating. He couldn't do anything but choose the least painful way if he had to choose one. He couldn't even think about the pain if he was killed by this beast.

"Good boy. Now take me there. And I promise, I'll be quick," Zhu Chang said, smiling. "And who knows, if your performance is good, I might even think about letting you live."

"I-i will take you there! I'll be fast."

The Heavenly Warrior again got his morale as he heard the last words of Zhu Chang. So there was still a chance that he could win. It was still better than the inevitable death he was facing. 

"That direction! We'll get there faster!" He declared. 

Zhu Chang nodded as he slightly changed his direction. 

...

A flaming eagle came crashing from the sky. Gu Chen stood under the Flaming Eagle that looked like it wanted to destroy everything. 

"Ancient Buddha Protection!" Gu Chan declared. An image of the Golden Buddha appeared behind him, which covered Gu Chen in its light. The Flaming Eagle clashed with the golden light, which ended in its defeat. 

The battle between Gu Chen and Zia Uzhi had become so intense that even the other prisoners were looking at the battle. A crowd had started appearing around the two of them. 

It was a battle that appeared to be something more than a practice battle. It was at the same level as what they had seen during the finals of last year's tournament.

Most people wondered who this young kid was. How was he so strong? Some people remembered seeing Zia Uzhi before, but they didn't know this person was so strong. Just how was he still unknown for so long?

Seeing so much attention on him, Zia Uzhi didn't like it one bit. The only reason he went all out was because he thought he could win fast. But Gu Chen was giving a good fight to him. 

"Golden Enlightenment!" Gu Chen called out as he clapped both his arms. The golden Buddha which was behind him flew straight to Zia Uzhi. 

Zia Uzhi clenched his fist and raced ahead to clash with the Golden Buddha. The flaming fist of his clashed with the Golden Buddha, failing completely. 

Instead of destroying the Golden Buddha, Zia Uzhi flew back, crashing on the ground. His lips started bleeding as he coughed out a mouthful of blood. 

He forced his weak body up, holding his chest. "I surrender."

He weakly dragged his body to Long Chen as he swallowed a pill that healed his body. 

Long Chen glared at him suspiciously. He didn't know why, but after seeing the way Zia Uzhi fought, it seemed clear that he wasn't someone who could be stupid enough to run blindly to the attack. 

It was as if he was looking to get hurt so he could have an excuse to surrender suddenly. And that change only happened when a crowd started gathering. Was he trying to avoid being seen by people?

Long Chen wanted to ask, but this wasn't the right place.

Zia Uzhi stopped before Long Chen. "This guy is pretty strong. He could teach you some great skills. Don't waste the chance."

"I won't." Long Chen nodded. 

The crowd didn't disperse as more people stepped forward to challenge Zia Uzhi. The same thing wasn't happening with Gu Chen as he was an old face. But seeing a new face of a person who was strong but not too strong gave people the motivation to challenge him.

"I refuse. One battle is enough for me." Zia Uzhi responded to almost all challenges in the same way. 

According to hand rules, he needed to fight one battle here. After that, he could either leave or accept the next challenge.. He couldn't just stay here and refuse the challenge.
