Chapter 2484 Spending Wealth to Save Life

The cultivation chat function didn't show a (deceased) status, so King Kun might be cautiously surviving in some unknown state!

"If I hadn't added Senior King Kun as a friend long ago, I might have been duped too," Song Shuhang said with a faint smile.

Maybe because his body was weak, his signature gentle laughter sounded somewhat sinister with the absence of its usual energy.

Sword shuddered. "Shuhang, your smile looks so evil."

Song Shuhang remained speechless.

"I searched thoroughly and couldn't find King Kun," Pavilion Master Chu murmured.

Stone Tablet said, "I got no response either. Could it be a network delay? Maybe King Kun died, but the signal hasn't reached you in time?"

Song Shuhang nodded slightly. "That's possible, but... let's prepare for the worst, just to be safe."

"The spatial lockdown is starting to lift. Do you need me to add another one?" asked White Dragon.

If the spatial lockdown dissipated, King Kun, lurking in the shadows, might seize the chance to escape through space.

"Please, White Dragon, could you reinforce it?" Song Shuhang strained to get his brain working.

His mind was still sluggish, a consequence of overload.

Creation Fairy carefully removed the scalding Scholarly Sage's eye from Song Shuhang's left eye socket—this time, she didn't replace it with Song Shuhang's actual eye, instead waiting for the heat in his eye socket to dissipate.

White Dragon's delicate claw gently tugged, and a 'Spatial Imprisonment' descended.

Song Shuhang's 'Inner World' immediately shrank back.

"How do you plan to find King Kun?" Pavilion Master Chu inquired, puzzled.

"Hmm, maybe send a direct message to Senior King Kun and have him come out himself?" Song Shuhang suggested while swiping open 'King Kun' in his friend list to access the private chat.

Senior King Kun, hiding won't help you—I have your number.

The moment I call you, and the ringtone sounds, that's when you'll be exposed!

...

...

In the world of the golden lotus, the four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction and a group of higher-ups had watched the entire scene of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song slashing King Kun and the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball.

Seeing the battle outside end, the four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction, Son of the Deep, Venerable Eternal Fire, and a group of deans from the scholarly faction emerged from the world of the golden lotus to greet Tyrannical Song.

Once the tale of Tyrannical Song's saber strike spreads, his status in the myriad worlds will likely rise to match that of the Scholarly Sage and the ancient Heavenly City's Heavenly Emperor!

Slaying two Immortals with one slash demonstrated that his combat prowess truly had the power to dominate the era. Coupled with the formidable clone on Mars, Tyrannical Song's name would resound throughout the upper echelons of the myriad worlds tonight.

The four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction led the way, with Yuan Zi rigidly following behind, all heading towards Song Shuhang's location.

At that moment, King Kun's consciousness within Yuan Zi's body suddenly received a message.

"Hey, Senior King Kun, you okay? I know you're still fine, so stop hiding. Come out, let's have a proper chat." A private message from Profound Sage Tyrannical Song.

King Kun was speechless.

"Not going to reply, Senior King Kun?" Profound Sage Tyrannical Song asked politely.

King Kun sealed his lips tightly.

Am I crazy? Why should I reply to you? Pretending to be dead silently is the smart move.

"Senior King Kun, no need for secrets. Look at your friend list; your name is still bright without a (deceased) mark. So, no need to hide anymore!" Song Shuhang sent another message.

Damn it, if I had fully grasped this 'cultivation chat' function, I would have blocked you long ago.

In the void.

On the palm of the virtuous lamia, Song Shuhang sat cross-legged while resting his chin in his hand and gazing at the members of the scholarly faction.

Creation Fairy knelt behind him, holding his head—keeping it from falling.

Song Shuhang was truly weak, his body ready to collapse without support.

As the members of the scholarly faction approached, Song Shuhang's gaze shifted to Yuan Zi.

Yuan Zi remained expressionless, like a vegetative person.

"Senior King Kun, long time no see," Song Shuhang said with a sudden smile while staring at Yuan Zi.

The four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction were taken aback and spun to look at Yuan Zi.

Even Creation Fairy looked at Song Shuhang in confusion.

"You can fool anyone, but not my eyes," Song Shuhang pointed at his left eye. Under the mask, his left eye socket still emitted a red glow, with smoke continuously emerging.

Though the Scholarly Sage's eye had been removed by Creation Fairy, the high temperature had yet to dissipate. The continuously emerging tears instantly vaporized and turned into smoke squeezing out of the mask's holes.

A sense of shock exploded.

On the other side, Yuan Zi remained motionless.

The four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction simultaneously pressed their hands on Yuan Zi's body, each using their divine powers to check his condition.

But moments later, Zi Wen, Zi Yan, Zi Chi, and Zi Yu frowned.

They detected nothing unusual about Yuan Zi.

The four Tribulation Transcenders turned their heads and looked at Song Shuhang in confusion.

"Don't worry, Senior King Kun's reluctance to come out is within my expectations," Song Shuhang gently tapped his knee with his left hand. "That's why I asked Ms. Long Luo to develop a 'ringtone' feature for me. It's a simple plugin, plug-and-play. Senior King Kun, answer my call!"

[Ding—Little Squirrel Notification: New function added to cultivation chat. VIP dynamic ringtone plugin online. Congratulations to 'Senior Administrator' Ah Bai, 'Fair-weather Friend' Heavenly Emperor, 'Crisp (crossed out) Head' Pavilion Master Chu, and 'Purple Grape' King Kun for earning closed beta access.]

King Kun was shocked.

Did versions update this fast?

"A 'Seven Kills Song' from Senior Creation, dedicated to Senior King Kun!" Song Shuhang said with a slight smile while opening King Kun's private chat and sending a voice and video chat request.

Through this closed beta function, King Kun's body would play the dynamic song of Dharma King Creation.

In this way, no matter where he hid, he would be inevitably exposed!

"Kill, kill, kill ~ disloyal people... Kill, kill, kill! Unfilial people... Kill, kill, kill!" A violent, ear-piercing, crazy song began to play.

However, the music didn't emanate from Yuan Zi's body, but rather exploded at the edge of the scholarly faction's defensive barrier.

That was the edge of the Spatial Imprisonment!

"Senior King Kun, please wait!" Song Shuhang laughed heartily. Although he was extremely weak at the moment, the pendants on his body weren't.

Whoosh ~~

As Song Shuhang finished speaking, a myriad of treasures suddenly shot out from the edge of the scholarly barrier.

The brilliance of countless treasures dazzled Song Shuhang's eyes.

"Ancient Heavenly City fragment!" Song Shuhang spotted something of interest.

"Understood!" White Dragon leaped from his neck and flew toward the fragment of the Heavenly City.

At the same time, Yuan Zi moved.

He easily broke free from the four Tribulation Transcenders and dashed toward the treasure!

At the critical moment, King Kun had chosen to scatter his wealth to save his life by severing his tail!
