Cultivation Online

Chapter 1320 Final Answer

1320 Final Answer

”You dare to threaten me?!” Xiong Lu bellowed in a fit of rage after hearing Yuanʼs words.

Yuan chuckled, ”Itʼs just a friendly reminder.”

”You probably feel quite accomplished after dealing with the Zheng Family. However, let me make it clear: the Xiong Family operates on an entirely different echelon! Not even ten Zheng Families could pose a threat to us!” Xiong Lu asserted with a tone of superiority.

”Consider this carefully, Yuan—or should I call you Yu Tian? Do you genuinely wish to antagonize the Ten Great Families? By doing so, you wonʼt merely be provoking us but also all our allies, encompassing the entirety of the Legacy Ranking.”

”Even if you somehow have the prowess to resist us, how long will you be able to keep that up? The Legacy Rankings control the world. Can you hide from the world? Can you fight against the world? What about your friends? How will you protect them?”

”...”

Yuan fell silent as Xiong Lu rambled on and on about the Legacy Ranking and their insurmountable power.

”Yu Tian, if you have any sense, cease this opposition. Iʼm open to having you work for me. Thereʼs no need for us to be adversaries. Join us and assist in conquering this world called Cultivation Online together.”

”You will be paid handsomely, and you will receive unimaginable fame and status.”

Xiong Lu extended a hand and continued, daring Yuan to defy the proposition, ”If you refuse to work for us, then we can only be adversaries, and we will crush you with the full extent of our power.”

A heavy silence enveloped the entire area as those present held their breath, anticipation hanging in the air as they anxiously awaited Yuanʼs response.

Yuanʼs reply had the potential to reshape not only the dynamics within Cultivation Online but also on Earth itself. After all, his cultivation techniques and secrets in Cultivation Online could easily flip the entire world around.

Nevertheless, whether Yuan accepted or declined Xiong Luʼs offer, the world would undergo a transformative shift. The future of both Cultivation Online and Earth hung in the balance, teetering between peace and destruction, all contingent upon Yuanʼs decision.

After a moment of silence that felt like an eternity, Yuan spoke in a calm voice, ”I have minded my own business ever since I first stepped into this world, only striving towards my own goal, so I donʼt understand how I ended up here, surrounded by mostly people I have never met until recently, even being threatened by them.”

”Even when my Exile killed your Exile, we werenʼt the ones who approached you, nor were we the ones who started the fight. Now that I think about it, this whole situation started when you threatened us.”

”Are you sure you want to make the same mistake again? This time, it wonʼt end with just one dead criminal.” Yuan stood there with a calm expression on his face.

Xiong Luʼs entire body trembled upon hearing Yuanʼs words, and he asked, ”Is this your final answer? I will keep my hand in this position for another three seconds. If you—”

”No, that wasnʼt my final answer.” Yuan suddenly interrupted.

The very next moment, before anyone there could even react, Yuan swung his sword at Xiong Lu, severing his body in half from top to bottom.

”This is my final answer.”

Xiong Lu couldnʼt even respond to Yuan because he was dead, but there was a shocked expression on his face as his body dissipated into thin air.

At that moment, Xiong Lu experienced his first death in Cultivation Online.

After killing Xiong Lu, Yuan turned to look at Fiery Queen and the others from the Ten Great Families.

”Tell him this when you guys see him in a bit—I hope you guys will entertain me more than today.”

”W-Wait—”

Just as Fiery Queen opened her mouth and tried to speak, a notification appeared before her.

The other 7 Players from the Ten Great Families also encountered the same notification simultaneously.

Once heʼd dealt with the Ten Great Families, Yuan shifted his attention to the remaining players standing there, their faces marked with terror as they wondered if they were next to die.

After releasing a deep sigh, Yuan spoke, ”You can relax. I am not going to kill you guys since you were basically tricked into hunting me. Unfortunately, I had to kill all of your Exiles. Though truth to be told, I wouldʼve killed them even if none of this had happened, as I also have an Exile of my own, and only one Exile can complete the legacy.”

”If you hold any grudges toward me for this, I welcome you to come after me. However, I wonʼt be as forgiving as today, so bear that in mind when you think about pointing your weapon at me.”

One of the Players there suddenly raised his hand and asked in a nervous voice, ”Player Yuan… are you really going to fight the Ten Great Families—the Legacy Ranking?”

”I am not going to go out of my way to fight them since I have more important things to do, but if they really want to fight, I wonʼt sit back and be a pushover.”

”While you are probably invincible inside Cultivation Online, the real world is a different story… I cannot imagine how youʼll deal with the Legacy Ranking, as they essentially run the world.”

Yuan nonchalantly shrugged, ”Iʼll figure it out when the time comes, but as I already said, I have more important things to deal with.”

”What is possibly more important than being the enemy of the world?!” Another Player exclaimed in disbelief.

”Itʼs not like I am really going to fight the entire world, but for starters, how about the end of the world?” Yuan said with a smile.

”T-The end of the world…? What are you…?”

Yuan merely shook his head in silence before turning to look at Xiao Hua, ”Xiao Hua, letʼs leave.”

Xiao Hua silently nodded and flew to him, avoiding the sea of corpses and blood beneath her.

”Oh, I almost forgot.” Yuan suddenly made a gesture with his hand, causing all of the spatial rings and storage pouches that belonged to the corpses to fly toward him.

After sucking all of the loot inside his own spatial ring like a vacuum, Yuan quickly left the scene.

Meanwhile, the players present remained in a state of bewilderment, grappling with uncertainty as they attempted to discern their next course of action.
