Deities: Starting From Goblins

Logan let out a cold laugh. Afraid now that you can’t win the fight? Obviously, it was too late, the ruin of this city was all Colin Blackwood’s handiwork.

Even being spoken to in such a manner, Colin Blackwood still didn’t dare to show his anger; instead, he bowed deeply, “I’ll give you fifty million Spirit Stones, that’s all of my wealth. I had planned to build a sect in the Extreme Cold Lands, but now, to save my own life, I’m willing to give it all up.”

“It’s more than fifty million, isn’t it?” Logan said with an amused smile. Would a greedy person like Colin Blackwood really hand over all the Spirit Stones he had? Even if he was severely injured and in a perilous state, there was still a glimmer of hope in Colin’s heart, so fifty million was just a part.

Colin Blackwood’s face turned extremely unsightly. Indeed, he had more than fifty million. Over the many years, he had, thanks to his identity as the City Lord, amassed quite a fortune; he possessed a total of eighty million Spirit Stones. But if he handed them all over to Logan, how would he manage his future expenses?

Thus, at that moment, he could only claim to have fifty million and kept pleading. However, Logan was unmoved. Colin’s act might have deceived others, but it was too naïve in front of Logan. After all these years, Logan had seen too many people, and he could still distinguish truth from falsehood.

One minute later, Colin Blackwood gave up completely, “Fine, I have eighty million Spirit Stones in total. I just want to ask if that could buy my life?”

“No, at most it will give you a quick death,” Logan answered succinctly. “Moreover, you need to understand something; whether you give up the Spirit Stones or not, after you’re dead and vanished, couldn’t we just take them from your spatial ring anyway? It would be just a bit more troublesome, that’s all.”

Since giving all the Spirit Stones couldn’t save his life, Colin Blackwood felt utterly hopeless in that moment. It was hard to escape with his severe wounds—how could he turn the tables now? Colin racked his brains, but it seemed he had nothing left to leverage.

The City Lord’s mansion indeed had many guards, but they were only at the throne realm, utterly far-fetched to match Logan and his companion. Colin Blackwood refused to accept that he would fall here today, and then suddenly came up with an idea. What if he threatened Logan with a mutual destruction?

Colin no longer played the sycophant, but instead burst out laughing, “If you won’t give me a way out, let’s die together. Do you know that a Half-step Saint Seat Powerhouse, after igniting his Dantian, possesses power that can match a Quasi-Saint? Tell me, do you two really want to take it that far?”

“Go ahead and try,” Logan said calmly, even with a hint of mirth. What about matching a Quasi-Saint? Unless it was a Sanctuary Powerhouse, Logan was confident in handling it.

This surprised Colin Blackwood. Quasi-Saint Logan and the other were not afraid; could it be that Logan had already reached Quasi-Saint status? There were no more than forty or so people in the whole Central Region, and without exception, they all had cultivated for over a thousand years. Logan didn’t look like he was over a hundred years old.

“Let me enlighten you a bit. Do you know about the crisis at Demonic Sky Gate in the Western Wasteland? It was Logan who set the array that killed the Sanctuary Powerhouse there. Not even a Spirit could stand against Logan. Do you really think that igniting your own Dantian could pose a threat to Logan?”

“Just two days ago, in the Central Region, it was also Logan’s array that resolved the incident at the Blood Drinking Sect. So save your breath. If we had only the power to match a Half-step Saint Seat, we wouldn’t dare to confront you. Today, if you seek redemption, no one can save you,” Bart Cloud said with contempt as he explained.

“Get it now? If your strength reached that of a Sanctuary Powerhouse in an instant, not only could we live in peace, but we’d probably have to flee. On the contrary, just advancing to Quasi-Saint is useless,” Bart Cloud added.

In that moment, Colin Blackwood despaired, his eyes filled with envy and jealousy. Who in the world didn’t know just how strong the legendary young Array Master was? In recent days, it was said that people would rather offend a Sanctuary Powerhouse than that young man. And today, Colin Blackwood had the misfortune to encounter him.

With a single effort, he annihilated Demonic Sky Gate, changing the entire situation in the Western Wasteland, and the victory from defeat at the Saint Sky Sect in Central Region was also thanks to that young master. Such a high-level player was not someone a mere city lord like him could afford to offend—the difference in their levels was far too great.

Knowing he was no match, Colin Blackwood still wanted to struggle at that moment. Either way, it was to be death; perhaps there was a slim chance in a fight, but resignation meant certain damnation. Since he was already critically injured and in danger, what more did he have to lose?

With a roar, Colin Blackwood charged forward, and in an instant, ignited his Dantian. The act not only healed his wounds but also unleashed a terrifying power. In fact, Logan had never fought someone who had ignited their Dantian; he had always resolved conflicts with arrays.

Today provided such an opportunity, and Logan met the challenge with neither servility nor overbearing pride. At the same time, Bart Cloud, who wanted to help, was stopped by Logan. He alone was enough, desiring a fair one-on-one duel with Colin Blackwood; Bart Cloud simply needed to watch from the sidelines.

After harnessing power, indeed, Colin Blackwood became very troublesome, yet Logan fought with increasing fervour, hoping Colin would grow even stronger. To Logan, it was a rare combat experience, causing an unstoppable rage in Colin. Did he dare to belittle him so?

What was most pressing for Colin Blackwood was that he didn’t have much time to delay; he needed to defeat his opponent within minutes, or the damage wouldn’t be too great. Otherwise, if he delayed too long, his Dantian would burn out completely, and even if he beat Logan, what was the point of becoming a cripple?
