Chapter 2941:- Massacre (4)
Of course.
At this moment, Fei Yan still intended to let her go first and defend on his own.
Rong Ruo's heart started pounding madly at this moment.
Defend?
How to defend?
That was a true Spirit Ring Exponent!
She and Fei Yan had just condensed the spirit inscriptions. They were stronger when they were together. Even if that was the case, they were still not Fang Jinghe's opponent.
If you go, you might live, if you stay, you will definitely die.
Fei Yan was not recalling his childhood mischief. He simply intended to use his life to exchange for hers!
Both of them knew very well that they were not Fang Jinghe's opponents at all. If they insisted on bloody battles, only death awaited them!
Rong Ruo took a deep breath and quietly released Hell Butterfly. The small sized Hell Butterfly appeared on the street full of blood. People couldn't even think of its existence, even Fei Yan who stood in front of Rong Ruo was not aware.
This time, Rong Ruo did not release Hell Butterfly. She raised her blood-stained hand, and secretly held it in her hand, seemingly inadvertently wiping the blood on the corner of her mouth. She stuffed the Hell Butterfly that had accompanied her for years into her mouth ...
"Boy, I didn't see that you have quite a bit of courage. You work so hard. The lady behind must be special to you right?" Fang Jinghe was not in a hurry to start, in his opinion, Whether it was Fei Yan or Rong Ruo, they were already his prey. How long they live and when they die depends entirely on his mood.
Murdering was too casual for Fang Jinghe. He no longer remembered how much blood was stained in his hands. He no longer remembered how many desperate eyes he had seen before these people died.
Killing made him feel bored. Admiring the struggle of his prey was his greatest joy.
Fang Jinghe's eyes fell on Rong Ruo's body. Rong Ruo was wearing men's clothing and dressed like a man before. He had no idea at first, but he just realised it. He clearly felt that the boy in front of him was actually a woman. Her slender hand bones were fragile and sensitive. Under heavy blows, Rong Ruo's shirt was still a little messy, her hair band was broken. Her black hair was covering her shoulders. Her face was pale due to the blood loss and looked particularly soft.
Staring at Rong Ruo's small and white face, Fang Jinghe licked his lips involuntarily.
"I didn't realise there is a little beauty here."
The cold voice made Fei Yan's hair stand. He held back the severe pain, raised his head and stared at Fang Jinghe fiercely: "If you dare to hurt her for a second, I will not let you go even if i die!!! "
As soon as the Fei Yan's words landed, Fang Jinghe held his breath. He looked at the Fei Yan with a tough face and laughed suddenly.
"Hahaha, don't let me off? Why don't you let me off? Little kid, don't force yourself to hold on with your little skill. I can pinch you to death with just one finger. But rest assured, that I will not bear to hurt such a beautiful woman. I will take good care of her. I have not enjoyed her, how can I kill her? "Fang Jinghe's mad laughter was as harsh as the crow's tweet.
Fei Yan trembled. The anger of his heart was burning in the flames. At this moment, how he wished that he could have that incredible power to protect Rongruo from being insulted like this!
"Or, do you hope that I show my love for her in front of you?" Fang Jinghe said viciously.
.

Chapter 2942:- Massacre (5)
"Asshole!" Fei Yan roared. At the moment of roaring, a gush of blood spurted from his mouth. A severe pain spread throughout his body in an instant. The pain was like gnawing in the bone marrow. Here, each of his bones felt as if it was about to crack.
Huge sweat beads covered Fei Yan's forehead. For a moment, his clothes were wet.
"Boy, don't be so agitated. Don't you know that I'm one of the best at poisoning among the Top Ten Experts? So what if you can take one blow from me? Even if I stop my next shot, the poison in you is enough to send you to hell. Tell you honestly, the more you stimulate the spirit energy in your body, the faster the poison will spread. If you don't want to die so early, stay there and don't move, maybe wait for me to finish enjoying this little beauty. After that I will give you a good death. "Fang Jinghe said wildly. At this moment, he had already stepped forward towards Rong Ruo who was behind Fei Yan.
Fei Yan could only bow his body. By moving his fingers, his bones felt broken.
His eyes were covered with blood. He stared fiercely at Fang Jinghe, who was approaching step by step.
Fang Jinghe looked disdainfully at the seriously injured and poisoned Fei Yan when he passed him. He sneered, lifted his feet, kicked Fei Yan and he flew out.
"Good for nothing, don't learn to block the path like a dog."
Fei Yan fell onto the ground, every cell on his body was screaming in pain. He resisted the severe pain of heartbreaking, raised his head, and watched Fang Jinghe walk in front of Rong Ruo holding out that sinful hand ...
An unprecedented anger exploded in the heart of Fei Yan. He seemed to return back to more than a decade ago. That night when the whole family was slaughtered. He could only peep through a gap in a box where his mother hid him. He watched the people from the Twelve Palaces waved their butcher knives and beheaded his father, his mother and his sister. The red blood spread on the ground, like a blood-red carpet, which printed his eyes red .
Fear, anger, unwillingness, and helplessness filled Fei Yan's heart that year.
That night, he lost everything.
Because of his weakness.
That night, he became all alone.
Because of his incompetence.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Everything before Fei Yan became extremely slow and empty. He could not hear any sound, but could only see Rong Ruo's pale face. He was quietly enveloped by a faint light. Fei Yan's body was expanded a little bit, but the invisible light had formed a giant ape-like light body around Fei Yan's body. The light enclosed Fei Yan in it.
A loud noise exploded in the street.
Fang Jinghe, who was just about to enjoy the little beauty in front of him, became aware that a mighty force was striking him at a rapid speed. He subconsciously withdrew from it. In the blink of an eye, a black shadow hit the slate where he was, it turned black with a huge dent. Cobweb-like cracks were all around the dent on the slate. The cracks kept expanding and continuously spread outwards, as if even the whole earth shook with it!
.

Chapter 2943:- Dead End (1)
After Fang Jinghe landed, he immediately raised his head. But when he saw the picture in front of him, he was stuck in place in an instant.
The boy who was kicked and kicked by him suddenly stood up again. It was even more unbelievable for Fang Jinghe that it was Fei Yan's spirit aura!
The spirit energy could be controlled by its owner and enveloped his body. This was what Fang Jinghe knew. But ... he never knew that the diffused spirit energy could be embodied! !! !!
At this moment, the aura enveloping Fei Yan's body went straight into the sky and turned into a giant ape. At this moment, his eyes became beastly. The two fangs in his mouth were sharp. At this moment, his whole muscles swelled. His wide clothes almost burst open. The slate floor under his feet had already deepened and sank down.
But at the blink of an eye, Fei Yan's appearance seemed to have completely changed. From the previous handsome young man, he had turned into a beast!
This weird scene made Fang Jinghe completely dumbfounded. He asked himself that he was knowledgeable enough. He had never seen such a strange thing. What even more shocked Fang Jinghe was Fei Yan's spirit energy .
Fei Yan had just condensed a degree of spiritual inscriptions. Although it seemed very powerful to others, it was not worth mentioning in the eyes of Fang Jinghe. But at this moment, the spirit energy on Fei Yan seemed to have multiplied several times in an instant. That kind of spirit energy, a force that Fang Jinghe completely did not understand ...
Unfamiliar but crazy.
Rong Ruo looked at Fei Yan in front of her blankly. The face like a beast, the sharp fangs were imprinted in her eyes. Others may not know it, but she was clearly aware of it. At this point, Fei Yan seemed to have been integrated with his Ring Spirit. Isn't that silhouette of an ape the same as Fei Yan's Ring Spirit? !!
"You are not allowed to touch her !!!" Fei Yan gritted his teeth and roared at Fang Jinghe.
Fang Jinghe's eyes regained peace from surprise. The meaning of the previous drama also disappeared at this moment. His eyes became extremely sharp, and his momentum had completely changed.
"What the hell are you, kid?"
"Do you mean... this is the effect of the elixir of the Sea Spirit City? The Dual Spirit Ring exponent... strange weird power ... it really makes one... full of curiosity!" Fang Jinghe's eyes narrowed slightly. His figure disappeared in the spot in an instant, like a thunder light, heading towards Fei Yan!
Fei Yan growled and raised all the power to the apex. He retreated and rushed towards Fang Jinghe.
Suddenly, the two men's figures rushed together in an instant!
Rong Ruo's eyes stared at the two entangled figures, and her fists secretly clenched on the ground.
Faster!
Hurry up!
Fei Yan, who had suddenly improved in his strength, could actually fight with Fang Jinghe. This change, even Fang Jinghe was very surprised. The sudden increase of power was too strange. No such thing ever happened!
But...
Fang Jinghe's eyes flashed a poisonous light. Under Fei Yan's attack, he suddenly opened his mouth, a dark poison sprayed out from his mouth and directly onto Fei Yan's face !
.
.
.
Chapter 2944:- Dead End (2)
The poisonous mist came by unexpectedly. Fei Yan did not have any time to react. When the poisonous mist rushed to his face, a piercing pain suddenly spread on his face!
"Ahhhhhhh!" The harsh scream burst from Fei Yan's mouth. Suddenly his figure crashed to the ground.
Rong Ruo's eyes widened in disbelief. She wanted to stand up in a hurry, but with a slight movement, her brain exploded. She froze as if she had broken her tibia. Everything in front of her became extremely blurred .
Fang Jinghe pant lightly as he landed onto the ground. His half squinted eyes looked down at the ground, covering Fei Yan's sorrowful face. He spat a mouthful of black saliva.
The poison hidden in his mouth was his last life-saving chip. He never expected that he would be forced by a spirit inscription exponent to use the venom in his mouth .
The improvement of Fei Yan's strength was too amazing. Fang Jinghe almost messed it up. Fortunately, he had the protection of the Spirit Ring. In addition, Fei Yan had been seriously injured and poisoned.
If Fang Jinghe continued to fight Fei Yan, even if he could kill them, he was afraid that he couldn't retreat.
The selection was imminent. But Fang Jinghe didn't want to get hurt which directly triggered the lore.
A wailing mourn broke through the sky. The flesh on Fei Yan's face seemed to be splashed by the corpse water. It turned into a pool of blood, dripping from his fingers. The kind of painful pain of being bitten by the flesh was simply unbearable.
But for a short time, Fei Yan's hands had been covered with blood. His cheeks were exposed beneath the fingers. There was a piece of good skin even the bones exposed to the air after the flesh was corroded ...
"Oh, little devil, you are a little capable, but you're still too tender." Fang Jinghe breathed a sigh of relief, pretending to be arrogant, His eyes were no longer contented like before. Instead he became a lot more cautious and had mustered a lot of killing intent.
This little devil's strength was so weird that he could not keep him alive!
When Fang Jinghe thought of this, he immediately stepped forward and walked towards Fei Yan.
Fei Yan's eyes were hurt by poisonous mist. Her eyes were dark and could not see anything. But the pain was so clear. The most terrible thing was that he could feel that when Fang Jinghe approached. He could only use his spirit energy and evoked the poison in his body. Now he couldn't see or move. There was only a dead end.
He could clearly feel that Fang Jinghe had come to his side. At this moment, he seemed to foresee death coming.
Obviously he did not want to die. He had many unfinished wishes. But Fei Yan smiled for no reason. He raised his blood-stained hand in the dark, showing the gesture that only he and Rong Ruo knew.
He knew that Little Ruo could definitely see it.
Xiao Ruo was smarter than him. As long as he could delay Fang Jinghe for a moment, Little Ruo would find a way to escape.
As long as Little Ruo could survive and escape, what's the big deal?
He felt Fang Jinghe approaching. That dangerous and murderous force was right in front of him ...
When Fei Yan was ready to face death, that lingering force from Fang Jinghe in front of him distanced away! !!
.
.
.
Chapter 2945:- Dead End (3)
Fei Yan stunned slightly. In the next second, there was a huge explosion. The strong air flow blew him up, his body mixed with blood and water. Numerous rubbles rubbed past him like a blade cutting his shirt and tearing his skin.
The thick bloody smell filled every corner at this moment. The strong airflow made breathing difficult.
Fei Yan could only subconsciously clasp the ground under him so that he does not rush to a farther place.
What exactly happened?
Fei Yan's heart was beating wildly. He wanted to open his mouth and call Rong Ruo. But his lips, which had been corroded by the poisonous mist, were already stuck together. He opened his mouth a little, and the strong wind poured into his throat. It hurts.
The intense shock finally stopped after a long time.
Fei Yan groped up in the dark and sat halfway on the cold ground.
He could not feel it ...
Feel the breath of anyone.
The breath belonging to Fang Jinghe had disappeared without trace. The murderous force and the creepy coercion were dissipated at this moment, as if it had never existed.
But...
He couldn't find it....
He could not find a trace of breath belonging to Rong Ruo. He could sense a little bit before. But now ...
"Little ... Ruo? ... Little... Ruo ..." The panic that he had never experienced filled the Fei Yan's heart at this moment. He stretched out his hands in the dark, groping an inch on the ground anxiously. His spirit was strained to the extreme. His pair of scarred hands constantly groping on the broken ground, trying to find his most precious treasure.
However, all he could find was the cricket rubble, and some sticky liquid that he did not know.
"Little Ruo ?! Little Ruo, where are you? Don't scare me ... Don't scare me ... You say something !!! Say something !!!" The huge fear filled Fei Yan's heart. How he wished he could see.
Let him have a look, or just a glance!
"Little Ruo !!!"
The desperate growl resounded on the broken street.
In the desperate silence, a sound of footsteps suddenly arrived. Fei Yan's spirit was tense. But in an instant, his tense spirit suddenly relaxed. He felt ...a familiar presence.
"Qiao...Qiao Chu, Brother Hua? Is that you?" Fei Yan raised his head, his voice trembling faintly.
On the empty street, Qiao Chu who was bathed in blood, stood on the unrecognizable gravel and looked at everything in front of him. Every pore in his body shrank. His blood-stained face stared to the extreme. His figure flickered a little. Hua Yao almost fell to the ground from his shoulder. He hurriedly stabilized his body, but his blood was stuck in his throat.
"Qiao Chu?" Fei Yan could not get a response. He could only speak again.
Qiao Chu's eyes swept across the blood-stained street. From the ground to the walls, everywhere was covered with fine blood spots, like a hell.
Above the earth, he saw a red butterfly. A huge butterfly dyed with blood, soaked in every slate.
"Qiao Chu, Hua Brother! You speak! Did you see Little Ruo? Did you see her !!!" Fei Yan was going to be tortured by this silence!
.
.
.
Chapter 2946:- Dead End (4)
Qiao Chu opened his mouth and looked at Fei Yan's bloody face. His throat seemed to have swallowed knife blades and it hurt so much that he could not utter a single word.
"Answer me !!!" Anxiety was swelling a little in Fei Yan's chest. He growled with great strength, tearing his sticky lip completely. A large swath of blood spurted from his mouth. His body was shaking and he was almost falling. Qiao Chu, who was scared, immediately stepped forward. But in the end, Fei Yan supported his own body and lowered his head.
"Tell me, where is she? Please ..."
Depressed voice, choked with pleading.
When Qiao Chu heard it, it was like a knife, stabbing fiercely into his heart .
"I ... I don't know ... I really ... I don't know ..." Qiao Chu held on to Hua Yao behind him with one hand, biting his roots, lowering his head. His hand hanging to one side had exposed a bone in the air, a trace of blood, dripping down his feet and along his arms.
Death was so close for the first time.
...
On this day, the whole Sacred City was filled with blood.
When Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao left and returned to the inn where they settled, it was completely engulfed by the blazing fire.
In the night, the red fire flew towards the sky, clearly showing the might of the flames.
Outside the inn, many onlookers gathered. Outside the fire, there was a lot of discussion going on.
"Why is this on fire?"
"Who knows? But I heard that in the afternoon, there seemed to be an intense battle here and many people had died!"
"Who is so daring? Making trouble in the Sacred City?"
"It seems that one of the Top Ten Experts was involved ..."
"Are you seeking death? How dare you say that!"
"..."
The words of chaos spread into Jun Wu Xie's ears, and she stared blankly at the red flame. An ominous premonition suddenly exploded in her heart. She subconsciously lifted her feet and wanted to walk towards the flame. But a strong arm pulled her arm tightly.
"They won't be inside." Jun Wu Yao's voice sounded in Jun Wu Xie's ears, like a basin of ice water, which completely awoke Jun Wu Xie's mind.
Jun Wu Xie's footsteps froze slightly.
At this moment, a familiar figure appeared beside Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao.
"Nangong Lie?" Jun Wu Xie saw Nangong Lie. Her eyes lightened slightly and just as she was about to say something she saw Nangong Lie make a silent gesture to her, and then turned around, secretly facing Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao, waving at them.
Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao gave each other a glance and immediately followed.
Nangong Lei led them into the dark, through the streets of the Sacred City. Finally they came to an inconspicuous villa and stopped. He stood at the door and looked at Jun Wu Xie with complexity.
"In the afternoon, your companions were attacked by one of the top ten experts. I dare not let them live in a crowded place so I can only arrange them here temporarily. You must stay calm." Nangong Lie's voice was a little depressed, and Jun Wu Xie's expression immediately changed.
Jun Wu Xie looked at Nangong Lie and said nothing. He stepped forward and opened the locked door in front of him.
The moment the door was opened, the scene before Jun Wu Xie made her brain buzz as if it had cracked open!
.

Chapter 2947:- Anger (1)
The pungent smell of blood filled every corner of the room. Blood was dripping from the floor. Qiao Chu was sitting on the chair with bandages on his body. In the spacious room, laid two beds. His face was blood-stained. Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo were lying on two separate beds.
At the bedside, the person covered with gauze on his face sat quietly. But Bai Mo's eyes stood depressed and stood beside Fan Zhuo's bed.
"Little Xie." Qiao Chu noticed the arrival of Jun Wu Xie. He stood up from his chair. The blood and dust on his unwashed face covered his features. His eyes were red and filled with grief .
Jun Wu Xie stared into the room, and her mind became blank.
The moment she saw the inn on fire, she had already guessed that something had happened. But ... she didn't expect that it would be so serious.
"You ... faster take a look at Brother Hua and Little Zhuo." Qiao Chu's eyes were a little hot. He didn't know how he managed to survive the time after he returned.
Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath, walked to the bed without a word. She looked at the sleeping Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo, and said nothing. She raised her hands and summoned Little Lotus, Poppy, Blood Velvet and all her ring spirits. The black cat jumped onto her shoulder. Without the need for Jun Wu Xie to speak, the black cat already knew what she wanted to do. It raised its paw immediately and directed the six ring spirits to get working.
Jun Wu Xie took out all the life-saving elixirs from the Cosmos Sack. Her eyes were cold and Nangong Lie aside didn't dare to say a word. The whole room was quiet but the atmosphere was heavy. Qiao Chu was watching Jun Wu Xie working swiftly, her hands dancing deftly as she tended meticulously with those deadly injuries on Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo's bodies.
Whether it is Hua Yao or Fan Zhuo, their injuries could no longer be dragged on. Nangong Lie had secretly invited two doctors before. But for such a serious injury, they could not help in anyway. Fortunately, Qiao Chu did not panic. He still remembered that Jun Wu Xie had prepared some life saving elixir for each of them before. He had rushed to feed them to Hua Yao and the rest so he had time to bring Jun Wu Xie here.
Otherwise...
It was impossible to wait until Jun Wu Xie returned. They would have already died by then.
Jun Wu Yao stood behind Jun Wu Xie and said nothing. At this moment Jun Wu Xie didn't need any comfort. Every minute and every second, she was racing with death.
Bai Mo stood by the side. His small and clean face was covered with fine scars. It was much better than Fan Zhuo who was lying on the bed. If it was at normal times that he saw Jun Wu Xie summon those Ring Spirits, he would be surprised. But now, his entire face was pale to the extreme but his gaze was solely fixated at Fan Zhuo's bruised face as he clenched his own fists till his knuckles turned white.
The injuries of the two of them were very serious. It could not be delayed for half a minute. Jun Wu Xie did not dare to slow down the treatment of any one person and could only proceed at the same time. She was working so fast that only the after images of her hands could be seen. Nangong Lie, who was watching from the side, could not even see clearly what she was doing. But the wounds on Fan Zhuo and Hua Yao were healed at a rate that was visible to the naked eye. The faces of the two also improved under the passage of time. Even their breathing had become much stronger than before.
.
.
.
Chapter 2948:- Anger (2)
Time passed by swiftly and Jun Wu Xie finally stopped. Most of the injuries on Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo's bodies had been dealt with. Their lives were no longer in danger as Jun Wu Xie's hands finally stopped. Turning her head, her eyes fell on the figure who was seated three steps away. A man whose entire face was covered in bandages.
The bandage on the man's face had little spots of blood seeping through and it was clear that the injuries on his face were not light. Jun Wu Xie could only recognize who it was from his silhouette.
Fei Yan....
Jun Wu Xie's heart tightened. She stepped forward immediately as she raised her hands and wanted to remove the bandage.
But just when Jun Wu Xie's hand had just tugged the end of the bandage, Fei Yan who was sitting there all the time in a daze, suddenly reached out and grabbed Jun Wu Xie's wrist!
That dirty hand was holding onto her tightly, as if holding on to his last life-saving straw.
"Little ... Little Ruo ... gone ... She's gone ..." The painful and depressed voice came out of Fei Yan's mouth, and with that trembling voice, a large amount of blood seeped out of his mouth but his heart hurt even more.
"Little Xie, please ... find Little Ruo ..." That desperate cry was almost inaudible, but it was smothering and filled with anguish.
Fei Yan's hand clutched on to Jun Wu Xie's wrist so tightly and had completely disregarded himself as he used all his strength till the wounds on his hand had split.
The warm blood ran down his palm.
Drip drip ...
Blood started to trickle onto the floor.
A startling crimson red that was so vivid that it shook people's hearts.
When Jun Wu Xie entered the house, she already noticed that her companions were in the room. Only Rong Ruo was missing. That gentle and caring person who always cared for everyone had now disappeared inadvertently.
"What... What happened?" Jun Wu Xie wanted to ask but when her voice came out, she felt a suffocating throbbing in her chest, accompanied by a pain so intense that one could pass out with that pain.
Fei Yan shook his head, and his stifling cry made the atmosphere in the room even more bleak.
Qiao Chu shook his fist and lowered his head. His eyes were so red that it seemed that he might even shed tears of blood.
Nangong Lie took a deep breath, he understood that under such circumstances, Qiao Chu and the rest could not say anything at all. Every time they recalled, they had to face the death of their companions again.
"It was the Top Ten Experts, I have no idea why they suddenly attacked your people today ..."
Nangong Lie told everything that happened today.
Nangong Lie and Jun Wu Xie have a good relationship. It was no secret in the Upper Realm. In addition, he was not close to other people in the Top Ten Experts. He rarely paid attention to other people's movements. Today he was planning to go look for Jun Wu Xie but when he entered the inn where Jun Wu Xie was, he saw the pale Bai Mo carrying Fan Zhuo who had fallen into a coma and had jumped out from the back window of the restaurant.
At that time, Fan Zhuo had fallen into a coma, and Bai Mo had a lot of injuries on his body. Nangong Lie could only quickly take them away and bring them somewhere safe. It was here that Nangong Lie learned everything from Bai Mo about what had happened in the inn.
Not long after Jun Wu Xie left, Bai Mo had been resting well in the room. But he did not expect that he was suddenly attacked and the killer turned out to be one of the Top Ten Experts!
.
.
.
Chapter 2949:- Anger (3)
Although Bai Mo was capable, his spirit energy had been sealed. How would he have been an opponent of the Spirit Ring exponents?
Just when Bai Mo thought he was going to die, Fan Zhuo suddenly arrived. However, the opponent who came was not one but two people instead. One was following behind him. Bai Mo did not know how to describe that situation. He had no spirit energy and he could only give up the hope of surviving completely.
But he did not expect ...
Pursued by two Spirit Ring exponents, Fan Zhuo had unexpectedly chosen to protect him ...
Fan Zhuo detonated his Ring Spirit directly, and shocked the two of them. He was already seriously injured and Bai Mo took advantage of that window of opportunity to pick Fan Zhuo up and jumped out of the window. He happened to meet Nangong Lie and that was how they survived.
Qiao Chu and Hua Yao's situation was similar. At the same time, they were attacked by two Top Ten Experts. Thanks to Hua Yao's final blow, Qiao Chu found an opportunity to escape.
As for Fei Yan and Rong Ruo ...
Although Nangong Lie had said it easily, all these sounded like thunder to Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie knew very well the strength and abilities of her companions. Even though they were very talented, their cultivation time was short, so how could they fight against the true Spirit Ring exponents?
It was already a great luck to be able to survive from meeting one.
But Rong Ruo ...
Jun Wu Xie looked at Fei Yan before her as her heart felt torned apart.
According to Qiao Chu's description on the battlefield of Fei Yan before Nangong Lie, she was afraid that Rong Ruo had already...
The thought of such a gentle person suddenly disappeared.... The anger in Jun Wu Xie's heart started burning like a fire.
"It's alright, after the matter is over, we will go to the Spirit World and to the Soul World. Little Ruo is such a good person, she would not easily leave this world. We will find her." Fei Yan comforted him.
"Really ... really?" Fei Yan's voice shook terribly. One could hear the faint expectations in his voice.
"The Spirit Tree has bred thousands of souls. It said that the soul is reborn in the reincarnation, his masters and the ancestors will remain the same. We can go to Little Ruo. But you must promise that you must recuperate well. Otherwise, how can you go to see her? "Jun Wu Xie whispered softly.
Fei Yan's body froze slightly and finally slowly released his grip.
However, if he could see now, he would surely find out how sad Jun Wu Xie was when she said these words.
A dead body, the soul could remain.
But in the scene that Qiao Chu saw, was the kind of powerful explosion that was not easily achieved. Fan Zhuo blew his own Ring Spirit, it not only destroyed a room, but an entire street!
Such a strong explosion could not be done just by spontaneous detonation. It was clear that it detonated the soul as well ...
Self detonation of a soul... how could the soul still survive?
However, some words were things she could never say to Fei Yan.
This was the first time Jun Wu Xie concealed the truth from her companions. But she had to do so. Fei Yan seemed to have the last hope, and his spirit was relaxed. Only then Jun Wu Xie had a chance to remove the bandage on his face to see his injury.
But with one look, all the rage that she had tried to suppress had rekindled in an instant!
.
.

Chapter 2950:- Anger (4)
That face...could no longer be called a face.
The entire face was no longer covered by skin. It was a mangled mess of rotten flesh. All the flesh on one side of the cheek had been corroded away, leaving only a piece of white bone. The eyelids too had no flesh left, leaving only the two dull eyes balls which stared back.
Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath, as her hand that was holding the bandaged hand was squeezed so tightly that her knuckles had already turned white.
She was used to seeing flesh and blood. She was strongly stimulated when she saw Fei Yan's face.
The surrendered young man who always likes to ridicule others with a bad attitude ... was no longer there, and that face which had both accents of a male and female has been completely replaced by a mangled mess of flesh and blood. Although Jun Wu Xie had the power to heal him, Fei Yan's face could not recover back to the original!
"I'm a man." Fei Yan suddenly said.
Jun Wu Xie's fingers froze.
"Men don't need to care about their appearance. Little Xie, I just want to see, my face doesn't matter, I just want to see, I want to see Little Ruo with my own eyes, please." Fei Yan's voice became extremely firm, and he knew Jun Wu Xie's concerns.
Jun Wu Xie shuddered. She could only tolerate the pain of heartbreak that was stubbing her throat while she cleaned up the wounds for Fei Yan.
After processing Fei Yan and Qiao Chu, Jun Wu Xie could not rest for a while.
Jun Wu Yao stood behind Jun Wu Xie so quietly. He was very worried.
The time ticked by slowly and soon it was already late at night. The room was still silent. Little Lotus contributed all his lotus seeds and leaves, nourishing Hua Yao, and the Ring Spirits were silently guarding them. They could feel Jun Wu Xie's pain and anger at this moment.
Qiao Chu and Fei Yan had been exhausted to the extreme.The return of Jun Wu Xie gave them a moment of peace of mind. The two eventually couldn't take it and drifted off to sleep. Jun Wu Xie sat quietly by the bed, watching her companions who were in an embarrassed state and her mood was extremely heavy.
How could she have imagined that she had just left for half a day and such a big change would have happened.
With Qiao Chu's current strength, even if they were within the Sacred City, only those who were strong Spirit Ring exponents could suppress. But they did not expect that there were only a few strong Spirit Ring exponents.
"Can you ... come out for a moment? I have something to tell you." Bai Mo returned to his senses. The injuries on his body were not serious and Jun Wu Xie had checked on him earlier.
Jun Wu Xie looked at Bai Mo. No matter what Bai Mo did, this time he didn't run away alone, but brought Fan Zhuo out. Jun Wu Xie was very grateful to him for this.
She was unwilling to lose any more of her companions.
Jun Wu Xie got up and Jun Wu Yao as well as Nangong Lie followed her.
In the backyard, Bai Mo was standing under the moonlight, and his expression was a little depressed. He turned to look at Jun Wu Xie. His immature face had no expression at this moment, and his gaze became extremely serious.
"Before, Bai Zhu had been following you, I felt that things were weird. Today, after you left, Bai Zhu once went to the restaurant and said that he was going to find you and he left after learning that you were away. Soon after we left, we were attacked. If I didn't guess wrong this time, we should have nothing to do with him. The Bai family, none of them are kind-hearted. You took the position of the Overlord of the 72 cities. He can't fight you, he was just waiting for the right moment to strike back. He won't really submit to you willingly ... "

Chapter 2951:- Anger (5)
"This time, his appearance is so timely that we can't just strike it off as a mere coincidence. I think he may have the support of someone big in the Sacred City before he had everything." Bai Mo looked at Jun Wu Xie seriously. At this point, he had discovered the anomaly earlier.
But at that time, he didn't care. Because he wasn't clear yet, he didn't say much.
But he never thought that ...
"My thoughts are the same as those of Bai Mo. The reason why I will go to you today is because one of the Top Ten Experts is called Qing Ke, ranked eighth among the Top Ten Experts. He is low- profile, and I don't have a very good relationship with him. But today he came to me and asked if my relationship with you was good. He reminded me secretly that something might happen today. This is why I rushed over." Nangong Lie frowned.
Maybe Qing Ke knew that was why he came to him.
Nangong Lie had a good relationship with Jun Wu Xie. Even if the Top Ten Experts had something against Jun Wu Xie, it was impossible for anyone to inform him.
Qing Ke's move this time had inadvertently saved Bai Mo and Fan Zhuo's lives.
Jun Wu Xie fell into silence. In connection with her previous conversation with Jun Gu, her mind was very clear. Qiao Chu's attack was likely to be Long Yao's first step against her.
In the selection of the Top Ten Experts, this had happened just after changing the rules.
All these seemed extremely suspicious.
"Ye Jue." Bai Mo suddenly looked at Jun Wu Yao from the side.
"I heard that your blood has a special ability. Those who have taken your blood will involuntarily obey your orders, right?" Bai Mo said.
Jun Wu Yao looked at Bai Mo. Although he didn't know where he got the news, but ...
"Yes."
"Give me a drop," Bai Mo said loudly.
Jun Wu Yao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Bai Mo looked up at Jun Wu Yao.
"I know you won't believe what I'm saying now. But I want to tell you that you are a bastard. That kid lying there saved my life. Although Bai Mo is not a gentleman, I don't bother. What a mean man, if the kid wasn't trying to save me, he wouldn't be hurt so much. Return me my spirit energy, I'm going to take revenge. As long as I take your blood, you're not afraid that I will turn against you! "
The words of Bai Mo stunned Nangong Lie. He did not expect that Bai Mo would have such a thought.
This requirement was basically equivalent to selling yourself to Jun Wu Yao!
How could you stand this arrogant Bai Mo's temper?
But looking at Bai Mo's serious eyes, Nangong Lie didn't believe it. But he had to believe it.
Jun Wu Yao looked at Bai Mo as if thinking about the credibility of Bai Mo's words.
Bai Mo was not in a hurry, it 's just that this belief had been deeply ingrained in his heart. He had always been alone and rarely associated himself with others. It could be caused by the environment of the Upper Realm, even if it was between relatives, he had never seen such chivalry. He didn't believe or care about it.
But I did not expect that one day, he would be rescued by a teenager.
The image when Fan Zhuo stood in front of him and threw his own life away for him was deeply embedded in him, branded into his heart. Bai Mo could not forget it no matter what.
There was only one thought in his mind - revenge!
He wanted to break those two bastards into pieces!
.

Chapter 2952:- Anger (6)
Bai Mo's resolution surprised Nangong Lie. But how things should be handled from here on depends solely on Jun Wu Yao.
Jun Wu Yao raised his hand slightly. He gently touched Bai Mo's eyebrow. Those sealed forces poured into Bai Mo's body in an instant.
Bai Mo's eyes widened in surprise.
"This is what you deserve." Jun Wu Yao looked at Bai Mo and said.
If Bai Mo really left Fan Zhuo and ran away alone, he wouldn't even think of getting back his own spirit energy in this life. But Bai Mo's words had convinced Jun Wu Yao to give him back the spirit energy. Regardless of whether he would really stay for revenge, it didn't matter. He was very clear what Qiao Chu and the rest meant to Jun Wu Xie. They had lost Rong Ruo. They could not lose anyone else. Otherwise Jun Wu Xie would...
Bai Mo stared at Jun Wu Yao dumbly. He struggled for a while to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He stood still and stared at Jun Wu Yao brightly.
Jun Wu Yao had already looked at Jun Wu Xie. What happened today was so sudden and he was extremely worried about Jun Wu Xie's current mood.
"Bai Zhu, Long Yao, Top Ten Experts..." Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes. Now, all the clues have been stringed together. If she still couldn't understand it, she was really a fool.
In this selection, it was clear that His Lord had fiddled. Although he might not have specifically ordered anything but he only needed to push the ambitious Long Yao to the position of the examiner and something shocking would happen.
"Miss Jun, what are you going to do now? During this time, you can rest assured that they can recuperate here. This is my private place and few people know about it. As long as they don't go out, it is relatively safe here. Nangong Lie looked at Jun Wu Xie and said. Now that things had happened, he had more or less guessed the ins and outs of it, everything else was still up to Jun Wu Xie to decide.
The moment Jun Wu Xie let her emotions take over and ran to find the Top Ten experts for revenge, she would directly violate the rules of the selection. Even if she killed those people, Long Yao could catch Jun Wu Xie for violating the rules. Long Yao would then mobilize all the forces in the Sacred City and destroy Jun Wu Xie completely.
Even if Jun Wu Xie could overpower them and won't be arrested easily but it would mean that she could no longer participate in this selection.
No matter how you look at it, everything that happened today was like a trap set up and dedicated to Jun Wu Xie, waiting for her to jump into it.
Jun Wu Xie didn't say anything. Her gaze was frosty when she suddenly turned her head and looked at Jun Wu Yao and called out to him: "Wu Yao."
"Yes?"
Jun Wu Xie whispered something gently in Jun Wu Yao's ears. Her voice was so soft that even Nangong Lie and Bai Mo could not hear anything at all. All they could only see was Jun Wu Yao nodding his head at Jun Wu Xie.
After speaking, Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath. But the flames of anger burning in her chest did not disappear the slightest. She was fuming instead.
"It's getting late, I will deal with it." Jun Wu Xie's eyes narrowed slightly as a glint flashed by.
Nangong Lie and Bai Mo didn't dare to ask further and they left first.
In the courtyard, there were only Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. Under the cold moonlight, their shadows were cast by the moonlight.
Jun Wu Xie lowered her head slightly and looked at the moonlight on the ground. Her silence made everyone feel depressed.

Chapter 2953:- Anger (7)
Jun Wu Yao looked at Jun Wu Xie's back as he felt his heart ache.
She didn't say anything, didn't cry nor did she show any anger. She was as calm as still water.
However, Jun Wu Yao knew that the calmer her response was, the more turbulent her heart was.
"Wu Yao, I have started to regret it." Jun Wu Xie said suddenly.
Jun Wu Yao was stunned momentarily.
"At the time, when I was in Cloudy Peaks, if I did not cooperate with Qiao Chu and the others, then they would not be involved in this struggle. Then Little Ruo would not ..." Jun Wu Xie said abruptly. She couldn't continue her words, she didn't want to believe that the gentle Little Ruo had left forever.
For the first time, Jun Wu Xie questioned her encounter with Qiao Chu. If they didn't meet her, they might find a place to live in mountains and rivers after they had their revenge for their family and they no longer needed to encounter any more perilous situations.
Jun Wu Yao looked at the back of the distressed Jun Wu Xie and at this moment, Jun Wu Xie herself did not realize that she had fallen self blame.
"It's not because of you. If you never met, how would you discover the secret of the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms? If you didn't journey together, the Three Realms would one day be destroyed." His shoulders were a little stiff and his body was exuding a touch of coolness.
Finding the path of hope, there were thorns, blood, sacrifice, but no retreat. Just as Jun Wu Xie had always believed in, behind her were the people she treasured. She could not retreat.
"Matters in the Three Realms cannot be undertaken by you alone. You must not take unnecessary pains and lead yourself into a dead end." Jun Wu Yao was a little worried. Last time, when Yan Bu Gui and her Grandmaster perished, he was not with her. He did not dare think how she faced the departure of the people who were important to her?
She really treasured...
Jun Wu Xie didn't say anything. She just relaxed her taut body and leaned softly against Jun Wu Yao's arms. She clutched Jun Wu Yao's outer robe with one hand, and buried her head in his chest.
"...It hurts so much ..." She gave a suppressed cry filled with pain.
Jun Wu Yao frowned and felt even more distressed.
"Wu Yao, my heart ... it hurts."
Jun Wu Xie's repressed voice finally choked at this moment. She didn't dare to think about it. Days in the future, every corner of the world, she would never find that familiar figure. The gentle, attentive woman who was as warm as the sun in March ... She had suddenly disappeared just like that ...
"Why ... why did things turn out like this..." Jun Wu Xie clutched Jun Wu Yao's collar tightly, venting a little bit of sadness that she couldn't reveal in front of her companions. She didn't dare to show a trace of sadness in front of them, knowing that if she revealed her sadness, it would only make their hearts more pained.
She was human, not a machine. She knew what pain was. She was reluctant, unwilling, angry and hated it.
Jun Wu Yao silently embraced Jun Wu Xie in his arms. He could clearly feel that the placket on his chest was slightly wet, a little moist and warm ...
"I will take revenge, I swear ..." Under the moonlight, Jun Wu Xie made her oath. Today, she must pay back a hundred times everything they suffered!
People in the Sacred City did not know yet. The blood spilled today had unveiled the prelude to the upcoming torrential storm ...

Chapter 2954:- Schemes and Intrigues (1)
After a few days of the selection, the audience's interest was beginning to wane. It was on the fourth day that the Spirit Ring bearers started competing and the selection started to get interesting.
The City Lords of the 72 Cities also started to appear and although they were not intending to be ranked, they hoped for an opportunity to show their prowess.
Dongfang Ku Bi was also in the crowd but his strength was not high. He came to the Sacred City purely to pass some time and soak in the atmosphere.
"Did City Lord Yan not come today?" Dongfang Ku Bi looked around the arena but did not see Jun Wu Xie present. This made him curious and he asked his guards.
In fact, Dongfang Ku Bi had seen Jun Wu Xie two days ago but before he could even go up to her, he saw Bai Zhu following closely behind her. When he saw that look of impatience on her face, he decided not to add to her troubles by going to speak with her.
But he never thought...
"No" The guard shook his head.
Dongfang Ku Bi had a pensive look on his face. In regular circumstances, Jun Wu Xie not turning up would have not been an issue but he had heard that the night before, the inn that Jun Wu Xie had been staying at was attacked and two of the attackers were members of the Top Ten exponents. The inn had been razed to the ground.
There was a lot of chatter regarding this in the Sacred City with everyone offering a different theory. Some suspected it had something to do with the newly appointed Overlord of the 72 Cities while others speculated it was nothing more than a disagreement between martial arts experts.
As to what actually happened, nobody had a clear picture.
"Is there any progress on what you were checking on?" Dongfang Ku Bi looked serious. He did not know why but he suspected the day before's incident had something to do with Jun Wu Xie. After the fire, Jun Wu Xie seemed to have vanished. Dongfang Ku Bi wanted to ask if he could help with anything but did not have the chance.
"Your subordinate is useless, I really could not find anything." The guard said with his head lowered.
Dongfang Ku Bi sighed deeply and furrowed both his eyebrows. He took another look at the arena, "Even Bai Zhu isn't here today, could something really have happened? He has always been clinging onto the Overlord."
Dongfang Ku Bi was very troubled and did not have any interest in watching the selection.
And today, Long Yao still sat stonily in the judge's chair with a shadowy figure lurking behind him.
"Lord Long Yao, I have done what you asked. Although those people are not dead, they are very seriously injured. If you do this, you will surely anger Yan Hai." The figure behind Long Yao was none other than the recently disappeared Bai Zhu. He had a respectful smile on his face and had several people standing behind him.
"Oh? How powerful are the people with Yan Hai that even the Top Ten exponents could not kill them? This is your report to me? It's such a disappointment." Long Yao said, disappointment dripping from his voice.
Five out of the Top Ten exponents were used in this operation, Long Yao's intention was not to merely injure them!
.

Chapter 2955:- Schemes and Intrigues (2)
Long Yao's words made the people in the room go stiff. Nobody could have imagined that standing in that back room were most of the Top Ten Exponents except for Nangong Lie, all six others were present.
These six people held a high status in the Upper Realm with many people looking up to them. However in front of Long Yao, they could only lower their heads in obedience.
Qing Ke stood among them and scanned several people in the group. Just then, Long Yao's voice thundered through.
"Qing Ke."
Qing Ke was taken aback but tried to maintain a calm front.
"Present."
"I hear that you did not contribute much?" Long Yao's voice was as cold as ice.
Qing Ke replied, "The one you sent me to kill, had left already with Yan Hai, so...."
All the Top Ten Exponents, with the exception of Nangong Lie, were assigned a target. Qing Ke's target was Jun Wu Yao, who had left with Jun Wu Xie. Wherever Jun Wu Xie was, they could not attack.
Furthermore....
Qing Ke himself did not agree with these actions, otherwise he would not have warned Nangong Lie secretly.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Qing Ke felt a shiver run down his spine, but Long Yao turned around and called out: "Fang Jinghe".
When Long Yao shouted that name, everyone in the room turned to look at Fang Jinghe, who was heavily strapped in bandages. He was supposed to partner with Qing Ke but due to a lack of coordination and Fang Jinghe wanting to take all the credit for himself, he acted alone and found himself in a two on one battle with Rong Ruo and Fei Yan. This mistake had grave consequences for him.
That day, Fang Jinghe had almost lost his life when returning from the street. It was only because his subordinates found him and immediately informed Long Yao, who summoned His Lord's divine doctor to treat him that he was saved.
Although his injuries were serious, Fang Jinghe still dragged himself there that day and upon hearing his name called, he responded, "Your subordinate is present."
"You have done well. You are the only one who has met my target, although you only killed one person, it is better than nothing." Long Yao's tone relaxed a little.
Fan Jinghe's face immediately burst into a smile, "It is my honour to fulfill your request. It is a shame that I underestimated my opponents or else the other one would not have escaped." Although he was being humble verbally, the others in the room could see the pride beaming off his face.
Fang Jinghe ranked lowly within the Top Ten and moreover his entry into the Top Ten was through underhanded means so many in the Top Ten did not hold him in high regard. However he indeed was the only one during this operation to achieve the goal of killing his target and this left a few of them speechless.
"Yes, after this, the ranking of the Top Ten Exponents will be re-evaluated, and I will certainly not forget your credit." Long Yao promised.
Fang Jinghe could not help but be pleased, if there was not a door separating him from Long Yao, he would have immediately knelt at Long Yao's feet.

Chapter 2956:- Schemes and Intrigues (3)
"Bai Zhu, is there any news on Yan Hai?" asked Long Yao.
Bai Zhu lowered his eyes and reported respectfully, "There is none. Since the incident, he is nowhere to be found. I have sent my men around the city to check, once there is news I will report to you immediately."
"Are you sure the people around Yan Hai are so important? Could we have provoked him so much that he will avenge them regardless of the rules??" Long Yao had a hint of doubt in his voice. The mobilisation of the Top Ten Exponents to perform such vicious attacks on Jun Wu Xie's companions was entirely due to Bai Zhu.
Bai Zhu narrowed his eyes and reaffirmed, "Your subject is sure, they are always together, they have not left his side since they entered the Sacred City. Yan Hai is aloof by nature and does not keep much company, not even interacting much with Nangong Lie, who is such a famous person. Yet this bunch of people have been with him since they were in the Sea Spirit City, based on my observations, they are as close as a family."
Not Master and subordinates, but rather like companions. The term "companion" was almost unheard of in the Upper Realm and it was only after prolonged observation did Bai Zhu come to this conclusion.
Just as Bai Mo had guessed, Bai Zhu was never sincere towards Jun Wu Xie. He had toiled for many years and put in much blood and sweat in White Night City in order to fight and obtain supremacy over the 72 cities. But Jun Wu Xie's appearance completely broke the existing structure of the 72 cities and shattered Bai Zhu's long held dream!
How could Bai Zhu not hate her?
What he had worked so hard for was so easily taken away by someone. How could he live it down?
However, Bai Zhu knew that going against Jun Wu Xie based on his strength alone was an exercise in futility.
Bai Zhu was no fool and knew that he was not her match. Cooperating with Long Yao was his best option as Jun Wu Xie was in possession of Dual Spirit Rings. Moreover, she had not been called on by His Lord and he knew this was his best and last chance.
Murdering Jun Wu Xie's companions and forcing her into a mistake would give Long Yao an opportunity to strike by using the might of the Sacred City to force her into submission. Without Jun Wu Xie, the 72 cities would revert to the chaos of old and it would be an opportune time for the White Night City to rise!
Bai Zhu's ambition had led him to this stage with no room for retreat. He was very clear that Jun Wu Xie was highly intelligent and after the attack on her companions, would quickly piece together the events of the past few days. She could easily kill Bai Zhu with a flick of her wrist and as long as she had not retaliated against the Top Ten Exponents, Bai ZHo dared not leave Long Yao's side.
"Alright, from today onwards, Fan Jinghe and the rest of you, walk around the Sacred City openly. I want to see if Yan Hai will defy His Lord's orders!" Long Yao said with a cold laugh. According to the rules of the selection, challenging the Top Ten could only be done within the parameters of the contest and the Top Ten were not scheduled to take part until the end. Under normal circumstances, Jun Wu Xie could possibly have waited but could she still do so if she was filled with anger?
.
.
.
Chapter 2957:- Come Out and Die! (1)
Long Yao definitely would not allow someone with Dual Spirit Rings to stand tall in the Sacred City!
As soon as Long Yao said this, even Fang Jinghe, who up till then had been so effusive towards him, suddenly became very embarrassed and several other Top Ten exponents followed suit.
Long Yao's intentions could not be more obvious, he wanted to use these attacks to incite feelings of revenge within Jun Wu Xie and get her to take action, exposing herself in the process. But....
Do not forget she was a bearer of Dual Spirit Rings!
The very same people who were full of arrogance when fighting with Qiao Chu now could not help but feel guilty.
Getting them to provoke a furious Dual Spirit Ring bearer was as good as sending them to their death. Who among them could withstand an attack from her?
Regardless of what back up Long Yao would arrange, the thought of facing Jun Wu Xie in the first place left them defeated mentally.
If it could be done...
They all would have all rejected the plan.
However...
"What is it? You don't want to go?" Long Yao said with murderous intent in his voice that nobody in the room could deny.
Several masters, in an instant, felt an invisible force of pressure being exerted on them and even found it difficult to breathe.
"We would never disobey Lord Long Yao's orders, please be assured we will follow them!" Fang Jinghe was the first to relax enough to speak. If they rejected Long Yao, they might not even see the next day.
Although they were the Top Ten exponents, their power could not hold a candle to that of the Knights of Destruction!
By luring Jun Wu Xie into action, one or two of them might die but if they did not do it, all of them would be dead!
Fang Jinghe and the rest each hoped they would not be the unlucky ones and reluctantly agreed.
At this, Long Yao was satisfied, "Don't worry, I will send someone to protect you in secret. As soon as Yan Hai strikes, they will appear."
Long Yao's assurances were useless and did nothing to calm them down. Anyone, except a fool, knew that unless Long Yao himself was protecting them, the only purpose his people would serve was to prove that Jun We Xie violated the rules, nothing else.
Could they still count on those Gold Spirit and Spiritual Inscriptions experts to protect them?
Nobody dared to say what was really on their minds and could only thank Long Yao grudgingly.
Just when Long Yao was satisfied and waiting for Jun Wu Xie to fall into his trap, the originally quiet arena erupted into life with a thunderous sound that shook his eardrums. Long Yao was annoyed by this and turned his head, wondering what the commotion was about.
When Long Yao cast his gaze on the arena, he froze!
On the huge platform in the arena stood a slim figure that burned into Long Yao's retinas like a bolt of lightning and all of Long Yao's plans evaporated instantly.
He sat a youthful figure with an icy cold stare, clothed in a robe as white as snow and with jet black hair flowing in the wind exuding an indescribable awe.
.
.
.
Chapter 2958:- Come Out and Die! (2)
"Yan Hai?" Long Yao's eyes became as big as saucers. The person on the platform was the last person he had expected to see!
It was the same Jun Wu Xie who should have been at that moment, consumed by hatred and plotting her revenge that was standing defiantly in the middle of the arena. All the applause and cheers in the arena were for her!
The most powerful person in the 72 cities left everyone in the arena dumbfounded. Nobody thought that Jun Wu Xie would appear in the arena at that moment.
In fact, although today's selection was more exciting than previous days, it was still being fought by weaker exponents. The real contenders would only appear later, yet Jun Wu Xie suddenly appeared.
Her appearance had whipped everyone in the arena into a frenzy!
In all the 72 cities, was there anyone who did not know who she was and how powerful she was?
As she stood on the platform, all remaining challengers hoping to show their strength felt totally defeated!
What a joke!
How were they going to fight?
They were only at the level of Spiritual Inscriptions and could be crushed by any Spirit Ring bearer, not to mention someone like Jun Wu Xie who possessed a Dual Spirit Ring!
All those from the Golden Peak Pinnacle cowered into a corner and all the Spiritual Inscription warriors unconsciously started retreating from the platform that could spell certain death for them. Even the strong Spirit Ring Bearers, upon seeing Jun Wu Xie, started twitching uncontrollably.
What did this person actually want?
Who would dare to challenge a Dual Spirit Ring bearer?
After the cheers, an eerie silence permeated the arena....
The winner of the last round barely had time to savour his victory before his great joy got devoured by an even greater fear when he saw Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie looked at him coldly, turning his legs into jelly. She said nothing but he gasped in fear and scrambled off the platform.
Come n, fight with a Dual Spirit Ring bearer?!
He was not tired of living!!
Jun Wu Xie was the only one left on the platform. She steadily turned her ice gaze towards the one in the highest chair, Long Yao!
When Long Yao's eyes met Jun Wu Xie, there was no wavering in his heart. On the first day of the selections, he had already seen the youth and other than a cool demeanor, could not discern anything related to her character. But today, looking at her steely gaze, he could feel her murderous intent!
Jun Wu Xie had come filled with hatred, ready to take revenge.
In a way that Long Yao did not expect....
Imagine. The moment Jun Wu Xie stood on the platform, her Dual Spirit Ring was enough to deter all the contestants in the selection. With her strength, who would dare to enter the ring? !!
Long Yao had calculated everything, except the possibility of Jun Wu Xie being able to think of such a thorough method of revenge while experiencing such anger and hate.
As long as nobody went up the platform, Jun Wu Xie could challenge the Top Ten masters directly!
There was no need to wait at all!
.
.
.
Chapter 2959:- Come Out and Die! (3)
Jun Wu Xie's appearance made Long Yao acutely aware of the flaw in his plan but he was not going to give up just like that.
And at that moment, Bai Zhu clearly saw Jun Wu Xie standing on the platform from a crack in the back room.
Her murderous intent was palpable.
Bai Zhu's heart instantly jumped to his throat. He did not expect Jun Wu Xie would go directly to the arena, much less that the situation would turn into this!
There was nothing in Bai Zhu's heart and mind except fear. He was lucky that at that moment, he was in the back room.
"Lord....Lord Long Yao....what....are we going to do now?" Bai Zhu asked in a trembling voice.
If Jun Wu Xie was really prepared to challenge the Top Ten exponents, then would Long Yao's carefully thought out plan be laid to waste?
Long Yao's mood had also turned sour, he looked out at the arena. All the participants were looking at Jun We Xie with nothing but fear in their eyes, it did not take a genius to figure out that nobody else would dare get up on the platform that day.
Long Yao's gaze narrowed and through the deathly silence, he finally spoke.
"The one on the platform, could it be Lord Yan Hai of Sea Spirit City?"
Jun Wu Xie raised her head, matched Long Yao's wild stare with an icy look of her own and said matter of factly, "Yes."
Long Yao sighed deeply, and spoke again, "Does anyone in this arena want to challenge Yan Hai?"
The only response Long Yao got was a sea of petrified looks.
In the Upper Realm, nobody dared to challenge the power of the Dual Spirit Rings, it was something that nobody would think of challenging in their lives.
Long Yao's expression grew angrier, it was as he expected. But if he allowed Jun Wu Xie to succeed, what would happen to his plan? Long Yao narrowed his eyes once again and said, "Yan Hai, since nobody dares to fight you, you may challenge the Top Ten exponents. Tell me, who do you want to challenge?"
Long Yao looked at Jun Wu Xie with half closed eyes, he was already hatching another plan. So what if Jun Wu Xue turned up?
According to the rules of the selection, Jun Wu Xie could only challenge the Top Ten exponents after winning the selection. If she won, she would replace that person in the Top Ten ranking. But if she failed, she would have to go through another selection.
With Jun Wu Xie's power, with the hatred in her heart added into the mix, meant she would definitely not go easy in the battle. However, no matter how much she wanted revenge, she would only be able to kill one person at most while her companions were attacked by five!
How would she deal with the remaining four after killing one?
Long Yao was waiting for Jun Wu Xie to make her choice.
At this moment, in the back room, Fang Jinghe and the others were looking at each other nervously, terrified to be named by her. They knew whoever that was called would have a slim chance of survival!
Jun Wu Xie looked coolly at Long Yao, her gaze then looked beyond him and into the back room.
That look gave Bai Zhu, who was hiding in the room, a big surprise. It was as if she knew he were inside the room!
As Bai Zhu was percolating in his thoughts, Jun Wu Xie disappeared from the arena so suddenly and with such speed that it made the audience gasp!
.
.
.
Chapter 2960:- Come Out and Die! (4)
In the entire arena, Long Yao was the only person who saw what Jun Wu Xie did. But he never imagined that she would make a beeline straight to him!
Long Yao was shocked, could it be that Jun Wu Xie was so filled with hate that she would strike directly at him?
Just as Long Yao raised his spiritual power to prepare, Jun Wu XIe bypassed him completely and made her way into the back room!
There was a loud sound and the door of the back room was kicked open by Jun Wu Xie. The force propelled Bai Zhu, who had been hiding behind the door, into the air and he fell heavily on the hard floor.
Bai Zhu had no idea what was going on, he only felt a massive pain in his head, aches all over his body and his vision went blurry.
However, the other people in the room saw everything as clear as crystal.
Jun Wu Xie stood at the doorway, the iciness from her demeanour felt like it could freeze the blood in their veins!
Ordinarily, if one of these arrogant and haughty Top Ten exponents saw Jun Wu Xie come close to them, their blood would almost pump in a reverse direction. When Jun Wu XIe moved that quickly, none of them could see it clearly and none could imagine the consequences if they were to face her in battle.
"Yan Hai! What do you think you are doing?" Long Yao asked as he got over his shock and got out of his chair to look at the scene behind him.
Jun Wu Xie's cold eyes swept across the room and walked forward slowly.
Everyone in the room was shocked and motionless. Only Bai Zhu who had fallen to the floor was still trying to restore his sight.
Long Yao's expression took a turn for the worse, since he had become a Knight of Destruction, he had probably not been ignored like this!
"Yan Hai! Don't tell me you're going to violate the rules of the selection? Don't you have any respect for the wishes of His Lord?"
Jun Wu Xie paused, gave a slight smile and replied calmly, "I know the rules, don't worry. I don't intend to break them, but before that...."
Jun Wu Xie's voice suddenly became light. She raised a finger and a beam of light shot out and landed on Bai Zhu. The beam of light wrapped itself around Bai Zhu's leg and with a simple gesture, Bai Zhu ended up at Jun Wu Xie's feet.
"His Lord's rules state that outside of the selection, one cannot challenge the Top Ten Exponents. But for someone that is not a Top Ten Exponent, I should be able to do as I wish with him right?" Jun Wu Xie asked although it was more of a statement of fact.
Long Yao stared at Jun Wu Xie, for the first time, he realised that he could not predict the actions of the youth standing in front of him. This, plus the murderous intent he was witnessing, sent a shiver down his spine.
Bai Zhu was so terrified his legs had turned to rubber. He had never expected that the first one to suffer ruin was him!
"Lord....Lord Yan, we can talk this over...." Bai Zhu was lifted up by Jun Wu Xie with no resistance. The anger emanating from Jun Wu Xie made it difficult for Bai Zhu to breathe and the fear of death was clearly written on his face.
