Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group? Book 05 Chapter 003: Now That You Are Done Speaking, You Can Die

Luo Li had already noticed something off with the atmosphere, so she quietly stood beside and slightly behind Chen Heng, not saying anything. At the same time, she hugged Chen Heng’s arm. He tried to struggle a little but found he could not. …Never mind. As long as she is happy.

“Mister Chen Xiu, why don’t you listen to your descendant’s opinion? He is the person affected by this,” Root Shiki suggested to Chen Xiu with a smile.

Root Shiki had already received the information from the Multidimensional World Consciousness Conference that her elder-brother-in-name, Chen Heng, would coordinate with her.

“That’s true. Heng`er, what do you think?”

Erm… This was Chen Heng’s first time hearing someone besides his parents address him as Heng`er, so he found this slightly strange. However, this was his ancestor, after all, so his ancestor could address him as whatever.

“Ancestor, I feel you should just chop him down.” Right, this was Chen Heng’s suggestion. He felt there was no saving this world consciousness, and he did not want it to survive, anyway.

Root Shiki’s faint smile immediately froze. This is not going according to the script. Isn’t he supposed to coordinate with me? Why did he announce the world consciousness’s execution so directly?

According to the clan’s family records, although Chen Heng’s ancestor, Chen Xiu, had an elegant name, he was a ruthless person. Furthermore, he was extremely protective.

Of course, Chen Xiu would distinguish between right and wrong. If his descendant were in the wrong, Chen Xiu would order his descendant to apologize before giving appropriate compensation. However, if the other side were in the wrong and refused to repent, then…

The best example of Chen Xiu’s protectiveness was when the descendant of a large clan wanted a treasure from one of Chen Xiu’s descendants and killed Chen Xiu’s descendant. In the end, Chen Xiu found out and went to demand the murderer.

The large clan doted on that descendant and naturally would not hand him to Chen Xiu.

Therefore, Chen Xiu simply chopped down everyone who dared get in his way. Eventually, all the elders of that clan surrounded Chen Xiu. Then…there was no more then. That clan went into decline afterward, ruined.

Of course, it did not reach the point of a clan extermination. After all, Chen Xiu was not some deranged person. He would only kill those who needed killing. He killed them only because they were in his way.

This resulted from the killing of just one of Chen Xiu’s descendants. Just imagine how furious he was at the world consciousness.

What the world consciousness did was equivalent to killing everyone in the Chen Clan for 56 generations, leaving only one person alive in every generation. Furthermore, this lone survivor did not live for long, either.

Back when Chen Xiu left the world, the Chen Clan was a large clan. Furthermore, with a powerhouse like Chen Xiu, the Chen Clan was not inferior to some of the giant clans.

Hence, there was no way to save this world consciousness. Why would Chen Heng risk himself to save this world consciousness?

Of course, Chen Heng was not the kind of person to take a reward and ignore the work. Furthermore, he had not received the reward yet. Thus, he would definitely help, but the world consciousness needed a decent chance to be saved first.

Right now, Chen Heng was afraid that coaxing his ancestor to let the world consciousness go might prompt his ancestor to beat him up in the name of betraying the clan. That would not be worth the gains, not worth them at all.

Furthermore, isn’t talking about equality common now? You killed over 50 generations of my clan. It’s not overboard for me to kill you, the world consciousness, right?

“Listen. Did you hear that? The last member of my Chen Clan already said that. What more can you world consciousnesses say? Furthermore, let me tell you, this matter is not over. Don’t think this will end with just handing over one world consciousness. After I deal with this world, I will personally go to the Multidimensional World Consciousness Conference and get justice. Furthermore, you world consciousnesses had better switch to another world consciousness to liaise with me. Otherwise…”

“Otherwise?” Root Shiki did not expect the Chen Clan’s transcender would not want to speak with her.

“Otherwise, I can’t bear to make a move. I—Chen Xiu—live an upright life, clearly differentiating between right and wrong. Since you helped the last member of my Chen Clan, I—Chen Xiu—will not attack you. If there’s another world consciousness, I will chop him down if he dares to stop me!”

Chen Xiu held his hands behind his back. Simply standing there, he radiated sharpness. He clearly gave Chen Heng a warm and gentle feeling, but now, he became like a sharp sword filled with murderous intent.

All the more we cannot change world consciousnesses. You already said it. What if we changed world consciousnesses, and you chopped that world consciousness down? What should we do then?

“Then, Chen Clan Ancestor, will you give this world consciousness a chance to speak? It has not said a word yet.”

Indeed, since being beaten up, the world consciousness had not said a single word. The moment Chen Xiu saw it, he beat it half-dead, and it could not say anything.

If not for the world emergency measure protecting the world consciousness’s life and the coaxing of the transcenders’ projections and Root Shiki, Chen Heng might not even have seen the world consciousness of his world.

“What is there to say? It is a fact that it harmed over 50 generations of my clan. What is there to explain?”

“Big Brother Chen, at least let the world consciousness say a few words. Otherwise, it would be hard to give an account to the Multidimensional World Consciousness Conference.”

Chen Heng could tell the man behind his ancestor was something like a mediator. However, he did not think this person had any compassion for the world consciousness at the side. Rather, he sensed this person’s respect for his ancestor.

“I’ll give you face, then.” Chen Xiu waved his hand and undid the seal on the world consciousness.

“Cough! Cough! I was wronged—” Chen Xiu resealed the world consciousness’s mouth after it said a few words; it did not even get to finish.

“Alright. He is done. Can I kill him now?” Chen Xiu turned his head to glare at the male transcender and Root Shiki as if he would cut them down if either of them dared to say anything more.

In any case, this transcender was just a projection and not his true body. At worst, Chen Xiu would just apologize when he returned to the Purple Firmament Palace. As for Root Shiki, he did not care about her at all. If she died, she would die for nothing.

Soon after that, Chen Heng saw Root Shiki frantically signaling him with her eyes.

“Ancestor, this junior has a question. May I ask Ancestor for clarification?” Chen Heng decided to make his move now. If he did not, Customer Service might go back on her word. Furthermore, he did have a concern.

“Heng`er, just ask any question you have.” In contrast to Chen Xiu’s not showing the world consciousnesses any face, his attitude towards Chen Heng could be said to be all smiles and sweetness. It was so pleasant that the male and female transcenders felt uncomfortable.
