Chapter 4202: 4202 How Did Things Turn Out This Way?
4202 How Did Things Turn Out This Way?
At least half of the people from the Rameau Divine Kingdom died in Destiny Canyon?
The joy on the face of the Lord of the Rameau Divine Kingdom vanished immediately and was replaced by an expression of disbelief upon hearing He Yu Lin's words.
Those outside of Destiny Canyon had no way of knowing what was happening in Destiny Canyon. They could only wait for the participants to leave Destiny Canyon to find out about what happened.
In the history of the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms, it was rare for a Divine Kingdom to lose half of its representatives. Perhaps, something like that would occur in one out of ten Battles of the Divine Kingdoms.
After regaining his senses, the Lord of the Rameau Divine Kingdom hurriedly asked, "Yu Lin, why did you say that? Explain yourself."
At this time, everyone's attention was focused on He Yu Lin, curious about He Yu Lin's words. They did not forget to observe a moment of silence for the Rameau Divine Kingdom.
"The Rameau Divine Kingdom suffered a huge loss this time. Although the kingdom gained a new Supreme God, the price is a little too high..."
Many Lords of the Divine Kingdoms agreed with these words. They also felt better about the emergence of a new rudimentary Supreme God in the Rameau Divine Kingdom.
The other rudimentary Supreme God who survived along with He Yu Lin was Han Shao Kun, a mansion master from the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom. At this time, he said to the Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom with a bitter expression on his face as well, "Lord, it's the same for our Rising Crag Divine Kingdom as well... At least half our people died in there..."
Apart from those whom Han Shao Kun brought to the core of the heart of Destiny Canyon, many people from the Crag Rising Divine Kingdom were killed by Duan Ling Tian. If he counted those he brought to the core, more than half of their people died in Destiny Canyon.
As soon as Han Shao Kun's words fell, the Lords of the Divine Kingdoms, including the Lords of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom and the Rameau Divine Kingdom respectively, turned to look at Han Shao Kun.
After listening to He Yu Lin, the Lord of the Rameau Divine Kingdom had prepared to accept the fact that his Divine Kingdom was the most unfortunate one this time. He was surprised when he learned that there was another Divine Kingdom just as unfortunate as his. He felt somewhat comforted by this. At least, his Divine Kingdom was not the only one to lose half of its people in Destiny Canyon.
"What happened?" the Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom, who just had a moment of silence for the Rameau Divine Kingdom, asked with a grim expression on his face.
Han Shao Kun did not respond to the Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom immediately. Instead, he was looking at another Lord of a Divine Kingdom who was clearly trying to hold back his smile.
Upon noticing Han Shao Kun's gaze, the Lord of the Divine Kingdom restrained his smile, and his expression returned to one of solemnity and calmness.
'Stay calm, stay calm. I'm not happy because so many people from the Rameau Divine Kingdom and the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom died. I'm really not happy. Was I too obvious? I wasn't too obvious, was I? Otherwise, the Lords of the Rameau Divine Kingdom and the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom would definitely be offended. By the way, why is Han Shao Kun looking at me like that? Don't tell me the people of my Profound Law Divine Kingdom have something to do with the deaths of the people from the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom?'
The Lords of the various Divine Kingdoms naturally noticed this subtle exchange. They could not help but wonder as well if the Profound Law Divine Kingdom had anything to do with the deaths of the people from the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom in Destiny Canyon.
"Does the Profound Law Divine Kingdom have something to do with the deaths of the participants from the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom?"
"If that's the case, then the Profound Law Divine Kingdom is too ruthless, right?"
"Perhaps, the high casualty is from trying to snatch the Earth Flaming Buddha Lotus away? Although the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom managed to obtain an Earth Flaming Buddha Lotus, it's hard to say if they gained or lost..."
"The Profound Law Divine Kingdom is really ruthless..."
The Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom, who shared these thoughts as well, glared at the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom before he said sarcastically, "The Profound Law Divine Kingdom really performed well this time."
Faced with the angry Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom, the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom remained patient as he calmly said, "Lord Yuan, it's the norm to kill during the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms. Even if my people are responsible for the deaths of your people, you can only blame your people for being so desperate to obtain the Earth Flaming Buddha Lotus. They were all willing to risk their lives to obtain the lotus. Moreover, since one of your people managed to obtain the lotus and even became a rudimentary Supreme God as a result of that, you didn't really suffer a loss, right?"
After saying that, the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom suddenly frowned. 'If my people really killed so many people from the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom, they must have paid a hefty price as well, right? Moreover, the Flaming Earth Buddha Lotus was obtained by Rising Crag Divine Kingdom in the end. Moreover, there's a possibility that Han Shao Kun was sent out of the canyon for killing people from my kingdom...'
The other Lords of the Divine Kingdoms thought about this as well and began to discuss among themselves.
"The Profound Law Divine Kingdom definitely suffered heavy losses as well this time..."
Upon hearing the discussions in his surroundings, the Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom raised an eyebrow. At the same time, he felt his anger gradually subsiding as well. He thought to himself, 'That's right. I should've thought about this. Although many of my people died, many people from the Profound Law Divine Kingdom must have died as well, right?'
At this time, Han Shao Kun, who had yet to have a chance to speak, finally said with a wry smile, "My lord, you've misunderstood... The deaths of our people have nothing to do with the Profound Law Divine Kingdom."
"Hm?"
The Lords of the Divine Kingdoms, including the Lords of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom and the Profound Law Divine Kingdom, were puzzled. They could not figure out what was going on.
Before Han Shao Kun had the chance to explain, He Yu Lin looked at the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom and said, "Lord Wu, Liu Xiao Feng from your Divine Kingdom managed to obtain an Earth Flaming Buddha Lotus and broke through to the realm of a rudimentary Supreme God just like me and Han Shao Kun. He..."
The Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom was naturally surprised by these words. A surge of joy rose in his heart soon after hearing that one of his people broke through and become a rudimentary Supreme God. Moreover, his rudimentary Supreme God had yet to be sent out of Destiny Canyon. It was truly a pleasant surprise.
The Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom nodded inwardly. 'Not bad, not bad. Since Xiao Feng is still in Destiny Canyon, it means that he's better than the Rameau Divine Kingdom's He Yu Lin and the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom's Han Shao Kun...'
With this thought in mind, the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom instinctively straightened his back, standing a little taller than before. Since he had such an excellent subordinate, he had to be more firm and maintain his image as well.
At the same time, the other Lords of the Divine Kingdoms looked at the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom with a hint of jealousy. Not only did someone from the Profound Law Divine Kingdom obtain an Earth Flaming Buddha Lotus and became a rudimentary Supreme God, but he was also still in Destiny Canyon, unlike He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun who were sent out. As such, that person from the Profound Law Divine Kingdom could help his comrades obtain points, treasures, and fortuitous encounters even if he or she could not kill the other participants.
At this time, they were more jealous of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom than they were of the Rameau Divine Kingdom and the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom.
He Yu Lin, who did not have time to finish his words, was both frightened and at a loss when he saw the reactions of the Lords of the Divine Kingdoms. 'You've all misunderstood my words! That's not what I meant to say at all!'
Then, He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun, who were standing across from each other, looked at each other blankly. They could not help but wonder why these people could not just listen to them properly without jumping to conclusions.
Although the other Lords of the Divine Kingdoms were jealous of the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom, they still congratulated him to show how magnanimous they were.
"Lord Wu, congratulations!"
"Lord Wu, your Profound Law Divine Kingdom has really stolen the limelight this time!"
"Lord Wu, I had no idea that Liu Xiao Feng is so capable. He's able to stay in Destiny Canyon until now..."
However, inwardly, many of them were thinking to themselves, 'The Profound Law Divine Kingdom performed very well this time. I'm not jealous. Not only that, but I also congratulated the Profound Law Divine Kingdom. As a leader of a Divine Kingdom, it's only natural for me to be magnanimous. I'm really magnanimous.'
At the same time, He Yu Lin asked Han Shao Kun through Voice Transmission, "Should we... Should we explain ourselves?"
He Yu Lin really did not know if he should finish his words earlier. Based on how happy the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom looked at this moment, he was afraid that he was going to be beaten if he spoke up now to clear up the misunderstanding.
After a moment, He Yu Lin asked tentatively, "Otherwise, why don't you explain it to him?"
"No way!" Han Shao Kun refused decisively. "He Yu Lin, if you had let me finish my words instead of interrupting me earlier, things wouldn't have spiraled to this extent. You caused such a huge misunderstanding because you interrupted me. This is all on you. I won't be your scapegoat."
Han Shao Kun was not a fool, after all. If he cleared up the misunderstanding, there was a possibility that the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom might vent his anger on him. Although the Lord of the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom would definitely protect him and there was no risk of death, he would still be injured.
He Yu Lin said with a hint of helplessness, "There isn't anything wrong with what I said earlier. If they'd only let me finish my words. I wanted to tell him that Liu Xiao Feng is dead." He sighed before he continued to say, "Liu Xiao Feng is the most unlucky one this time. He had only become a rudimentary Supreme God and could've left the canyon at any time, but he died instead."
Liu Xiao Feng was the other rudimentary Supreme God who fought Lang Chun Yuan alongside He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun in the core of the heart of Destiny Canyon. Alas, unlike He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun, he died in Destiny Canyon.
After Liu Xiao Feng died, He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun discovered they could not break Lang Chun Yuan's Trap Formation so they decisively left Destiny Canyon.
He Yu Lin and Han Shao Kun really did not expect that after leaving Destiny Canyon, they would cause such a huge misunderstanding.
'I have to make things clear no matter what. The Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom would be angrier the longer I delay telling him the truth...' Beads of cold sweat appeared on He Yu Lin's forehead as he thought to himself, 'I'll inform the lord about this first so he can intervene in time if the Lord of the Profound Law Divine Kingdom attacks me.'
