"Long Chen, you..."
Luo Bing was also startled. Although Long Chen had launched a guild bloodbath against Rongtian Valley, she was shocked but not afraid.
On one hand, she had confidence in Long Chen, knowing he never did anything he wasn't confident about. Since he dared to do it, he had his reasons.
On the other hand, she had enough confidence in herself. Recently, after several life-and-death battles on the battlefield and fierce battles with demons, her bloodline divine abilities had awakened again. As long as Long Chen could hold off Longyan Sect, she was confident she could defeat all the disciples of Melting Sky Valley.
But now, it had become Long Chen versus Longyan Sect, Mu Qingyun versus Gu Zhen, and it was a life-or-death battle in just three moves. Her heart suddenly sank.
You have to know, Gu Zhen is the second greatest expert in Melting Sky Valley, with terrifying combat power. Even if Gu Zhen doesn't use underhanded tactics to provoke Luo Ning, it will be very difficult for her to defeat him.
Within three moves, if Mu Qingyun couldn't defeat Gu Zhen, he would kill himself on the spot. This was just too insane.
Yet Mu Qingyun's face showed no sign of nervousness; his eyes were calm as he looked at Gu Zhen calmly.
"As long as Gu can block three moves from Mu Qingyun, she will kill herself on the spot, and your Longyan Sect will have the chance to fight me, Long Chen.
Similarly, if I can't kill you in three moves, I'll kill myself on the spot. Whether I fight or not is a matter of a single word. Long Chen said coldly.
For a moment, the entire venue fell silent. Now, everyone had already inquired into the grudge between Rongtian Valley and Luo Sect, and they looked down on Gu Zhen's despicable methods.
But Gu Zhen is ranked fifty-seventh on the Earth List, and his strength speaks for itself. If someone can defeat Gu Zhen in three moves, it's not impossible, but definitely not ten. Mu Qingyun had just entered the inner sect and already thought he could defeat Gu Zhen in just three moves—this was simply a dream.
"Hahaha..."
Gu Zhen suddenly laughed up at the sky: "Fine, I agree to this challenge. I want to see what this woman is capable of." Gu
Zhen's face was full of sinister smiles, as if everything was under his control. He was very confident in his own strength.
"Buzz"
Mu Qingyun said nothing, directly taking out his nameplate. A drop of blood fell onto it, and runes lit up on it.
"Buzz!"
Gu Zhen also dropped a drop of blood onto the nameplate, and the runes on the two plates intertwined.
"Rumble rumble...
Suddenly, the void trembled, and a stage several miles around appeared above the void. Mu Qingyun and Gu Zhen's figures vanished in an instant, and when they reappeared, they were already on the arena.
"Hahaha..."
Once on the stage, Gu Zhen burst out laughing: "You really are a bunch of idiots, beating me in three moves?" Dream on, aren't you? Take a look at this. Amid
his laughter, Gu Zhen produced a golden shield in his hand. The shield had a strange shape, square yet round, resembling a tortoise shell.
"Four-spirit Tortoise Shell, this guy is so despicable." Someone recognized the turtle shell, and a wave of curses erupted one after another.
The Four Spirit Turtle Armor is the shell of the third-tier magical beast, the Four Spirit Turtle. The Four Spirit Turtles are a very special ferocious beast—their attack power is weak, but their defense is extremely strong.
Generally, when a strong person encounters the Four Spirit Turtles, they won't kill them directly, but will use bait to poison them, thus obtaining a complete Four Spirit Turtle Shell.
A complete Four Spirit Tortoise shell is not only hard and impervious to blades and swords, but most importantly, it can activate four times of absolute defense, transferring attacks from any direction around the body onto the shell. It can be considered a life-saving divine artifact, extremely precious. No one expected Gu Zhen to possess it.
The Four Spirit Tortoise Shell possesses four times of absolute defense, and they had agreed on three moves. In other words, before even making a move, Mu Qingyun had already lost.
But Mu Qingyun's expression remained unchanged. Her hand slowly reached behind her back, her fingers tightening as she gripped the longsword. She made no move, her face expressionless, just holding that posture motionless, like a statue.
The moment Mu Qingyun gripped the sword, a look of astonishment flashed in Bai Shishi's eyes.
Gu Zhen looked at Mu Qingyun with disdain, sneering, "Stupid woman, you're just as idiot as that woman before. Long Chen, that pretty boy, not only toyed with your bodies but also your feelings, and you don't even realize it..."
As soon as Gu Zhen spoke, killing intent surged among the disciples of the Luo Sect and the Xiaoyao Alliance. Gu Zhen's words were truly vicious.
"... Could it be that Long Chen is very skilled in that area? Let me tell you, don't be silly. You haven't tried other men, so how can you compare who is good or bad?
Honestly, I'm really strong in that area. Do you want to give it a try? Don't you women just love being toyed with? "The more Gu Zhen spoke, the more explicit and vulgar he became, the lewdness on his face growing even stronger.
"Gu Zhen, shut up." Longyan Sect's face changed dramatically as he shouted at Gu Zhen, but unfortunately he forgot that the arena was blocked by a formation, so no one could hear him inside what he shouted.
The reason Longyan Sect's expression changed drastically was because a murderous intent surged from Bai Shishi's beautiful face.
All the female disciples of the Celestial Maiden Alliance gripped their weapons tightly. Gu Zhen's few words offended the Alliance along with the others.
The disciples of the Celestial Maiden Alliance were all extremely proud and looked down on men. To provoke Mu Qingyun, Gu Zhen spoke without restraint, not realizing that without the formation's barrier, he might have died without a grave.
Luo Bing and the others' faces darkened. She finally understood why Luo Ning was defeated so quickly. This person was far too sinister. Such words made not only the hot-tempered Luo Ning but even the usually calm Luo Bing unable to contain her anger.
A chilling murderous intent flashed in Long Chen's eyes. Suddenly, he felt that perhaps Lingxiao Academy wasn't suitable for him. Although the rules could protect him, they would also bind him. The murderous desire in his heart began to stir, and he felt he could no longer suppress it.
"Gu Zhen, are you a man? That turtle shell is one thing, but you even spat spit. You've completely disgraced your ancestors. "
Longyan Sect, I used to think you weren't a good person, but now I think you're no good. Even if you have such trash under your command, you're no better off."
For a moment, people started cursing loudly, and even Long Yanzong was joined in. Long Yanzong's face darkened. He couldn't fight back, so he just opened his mouth. How could he possibly outshone so many people?
"What's wrong?" Girl, what are you shaking? Could it be that just a few words from me have already stirred your desire? Hahaha... Seeing Mu Qingyun's body start to tremble, Gu Zhen grew even more smug.
"Long Chen..." Luo Bing suddenly became nervous.
"It's nothing. Qingyun can't hear anything he says. I already told her to shut down her six senses." Long Chen comforted her.
Although Mu Qingyun's body was trembling, his eyes remained calm. Her body trembled, and soon, the entire arena began to tremble slightly, and the vibration frequency matched Mu Qingyun's in perfect sync.
Gu Zhen's sinister smile had now frozen on his face because he was horrified to realize he was locked onto by a fierce, unmatched will.
"Clang!"
At that moment, the long sword was drawn, swiftLike a dragon's roar, the brilliant sword light sliced through the void, changing the color of heaven and earth.
"Pfft!"
The sword light slashed down, and the Four Spirit Turtle Shell, along with Gu Zhen, was sliced to dust with a single strike. The sword energy remained undiminished, forcibly piercing through the formation and shattering a corner of the arena.
Blood mist rose, shattered runes danced, and for a moment, the entire venue fell into a deathly silence.
"One move... "
Die... "Done"
