Capítulo 23: 23. Comply
Chen Xuan didn't expect this.
The moment he appeared, without saying a word, he was berated.
"Fine, fine! You want to die, huh?"
With a cold expression, he stretched out his hand and said in a chilling voice, "Give me the Thousand Beast Fruit, and I'll leave your corpse intact!"
What?
Give you the fruit?
And leave my corpse intact?
Liu Gu laughed in anger, "Who do you think you are? You think you're worthy of this treasure? You must be tired of living! Get lost!"
This was something he had obtained after endless effort.
You want it? Should I just hand it over? Who the hell are you?
However, the next second...
What greeted him was a terrifying surge of Yuan energy.
This Yuan energy burst out from Chen Xuan's body.
Finally, it transformed into a gigantic Yuan energy hand.
It gripped Liu Gu tightly.
Years ago, he had the fortune of meeting the ruler of the Great Yan Empire's royal family.
That person's Nirvana Realm power, just by a casual gesture, gave him an overwhelming sense of oppression.
But now, the aura this young man was unleashing was even more terrifying than that of the royal ruler!
This person is a Nirvana Realm expert!
The stench of death filled the air.
In an instant, yellow liquid trickled down his pants.
A foul stench quickly spread.
Yes!
Liu Gu had pissed himself.
Crying, he begged for mercy, "Senior, please… spare my life!"
Chen Xuan ignored him.
With a gesture of his hand, Liu Gu's Qiankun bag flew directly into Chen Xuan's hand.
Effortlessly, he broke the restriction Liu Gu had set.
From the bag, he pulled out two Thousand Beast Fruits, one large and one small.
He also pocketed the Qiankun bag.
Liu Gu didn't dare say a word about this.
Instead, he forced a smile and said, "Senior, you've already got the Thousand Beast Fruit, please... spare... ah... please..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Chen Xuan lightly clenched his other hand.
The Yuan energy-formed giant hand instantly crushed Liu Gu.
Boom!
At the same time...
At the gates of the Ancient Sword Sect, the Ancient Dragon Ape had broken through the gates.
In the midst of everyone's desperate cries for help...
The enraged Ancient Dragon Ape slaughtered every single disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect, leaving none alive.
It then charged towards the main hall with unstoppable fury.
From afar...
The onlookers felt a sense of justice.
"Yes, yes! Finally, justice is served! The Ancient Sword Sect brought this upon themselves!"
"Those hypocritical bastards have been oppressing and abusing others for too long. It's about time they were wiped out!"
"Is the Ancient Sword Sect really that bad?"
"Of course! They've long been a public menace, but no one dared to challenge them because of their power."
"Heavens! Earth! Thank you, Ancient Dragon Ape, for avenging us!"
...
Amid the discussions...
They gleefully watched the Ancient Dragon Ape charge towards the main hall, itching to help it.
However, just as the Ancient Dragon Ape was about to smash the hall and find the one who had stolen its treasure...
A young figure appeared out of nowhere, standing before the Ancient Dragon Ape.
Dressed in white, he looked like an immortal descended from the heavens!
It was Chen Xuan.
Everyone was shocked by this sight.
How could he dare stand before the Ancient Dragon Ape, a creature far more powerful and dozens of times larger than him?
Compared to the Ancient Dragon Ape, his figure seemed so small, so fragile, so utterly insignificant...
Was he courting death?
Everyone believed Chen Xuan was doomed.
And he would die horribly!
But in the next second, something unexpected happened.
They saw the enraged Ancient Dragon Ape roar, lifting its massive fist high into the air.
But strangely, its fist didn't come down.
What's going on? Did the Ancient Dragon Ape have a sudden change of heart and decide not to bully the weak?
In truth, it wasn't that the Ancient Dragon Ape didn't want to smash its fist down.
It was that its fist, even its entire body, seemed to be bound by something.
It couldn't move an inch!
Its beastly eyes widened in terror.
It stared incredulously at the human before it, who appeared frail but was terrifyingly powerful!
Ancient Dragon Ape: What have you done to me? Why can't I move?
At this moment...
It could only roar in frustration!
This baffled the onlookers even more.
Why isn't it attacking? Come on, smash him with your fist, big guy!
Why are you just howling?
They were getting anxious.
Chen Xuan stared intently at the Ancient Dragon Ape.
In an undeniable tone, he said, "The Thousand Beast Fruit is in my hand. I need you to help me with something. If you refuse, you die immediately!"
Refuse and die?
Where's the justice in that?
Oh, you're stronger than me? Alright, then never mind.
The Ancient Dragon Ape frantically nodded, agreeing without hesitation.
Its survival instincts were strong!
Chen Xuan continued, "Don't worry, once the task is done, the Thousand Beast Fruit will be returned to you. Additionally, I will give you a Beast Essence Pill."
At the mention of the Thousand Beast Fruit, the Ancient Dragon Ape began to drool.
And when the Beast Essence Pill was mentioned...
Its beastly eyes gleamed with desire.
Ancient Dragon Ape: You should've said so earlier!
With such good stuff, I'd gladly do ten or a hundred tasks for you!
The Beast Essence Pill was a type of powerful medicine for beasts, similar in effect to the Nirvana Divine Pill.
However, the Beast Essence Pill was far more potent.
Humans couldn't handle its effects.
Chen Xuan raised his hand, using a powerful surge of Yuan energy to lead the Ancient Dragon Ape towards Heaven Shaking Mountain.
Next...
He would subdue the Heaven Shaking Demon Ape, forming a dual-ape guard for double the security.
As the pair departed...
The onlookers were left in stunned silence.
After a long while...
They erupted in disbelief.
"T-The Ancient Dragon Ape... he just... took it with him!?"
"How is that possible!?"
"But the truth is right before our eyes. He took the Ancient Dragon Ape away!"
"Could that man be at the Half-Nirvana Realm?"
"That's possible!"
"A Half-Nirvana Realm expert... terrifying!"
...
At Heaven Shaking Mountain...
The Heaven Shaking Demon Ape was the overlord of this place.
It was resting.
Suddenly, it sensed two powerful auras swiftly approaching.
Immediately, it became vigilant.
It watched as a streak of light descended from the sky.
Finally, two figures hovered in front of it.
Looking at this strange duo...
The Heaven Shaking Demon Ape was taken aback, especially when it noticed the disbelief in the Ancient Dragon Ape's eyes.
Without Chen Xuan needing to speak...
The Ancient Dragon Ape stepped forward and began negotiating with the Heaven Shaking Demon Ape.
At first, the Demon Ape refused outright.
But after learning that even the Ancient Dragon Ape, who was on par with it in power, couldn't escape this man's grasp...
It quickly agreed to join them.
And so, Chen Xuan led the two enormous beasts towards the Misty Forest.
Along the way, the sight of a man accompanied by two giant beasts drew plenty of attention.
"Look! Two giant beasts, and they've taken a human as their servant."
"That's not right. I feel like... the two giant beasts are the servants."
"Really?"
"Yes, yes, I have the same feeling!"
