Chapter 1487: 1487
Mu Lingxi was able to become the Saintess of the Demonic Sect and infiltrate the Martial City Academy for so long . It was evident that she was very smart and strategic .
Thus, she could naturally see that Qiu Yu was purposely using “kindness” to threaten her .
If she’d really softened and freed Qiu Yu, then today would probably be the day of Zhang Ruochen and Le’s deaths .
Qiu Yu could see the worry in Mu Lingxi’s heart . “Lingxi,” he quickly said . “Don’t worry . I swear that as long as you free, I definitely won’t take revenge on Zhang Ruochen . You should know that, for top cultivators, going against their word would affect their mindset greatly . ”
Holding her sword, Mu Lingxi walked over and pointed it to Qiu Yu’s forehead . “No need to speak further . Since I said I’ll ask forgiveness from Zhang Ruochen, I will definitely try my best to save you . ”
Ugh, I’m already acting so low, but she still stands on Zhang Ruochen’s side . If I’d known this, I wouldn’t have saved her in the Blue Dragon Void World . If she falls into my hands, I’ll make her wish she’s dead . Menace flashed past the depths of Qiu Yu’s eyes .
A laugh came from a poisonous cloud in the distance . “I didn’t expect this . I didn’t expect to see such an incredible scene . ”
Hearing the laugh, Mu Lingxi was taken aback . “Who is it?”
Zhentian Tiger walked out of the cloud with his thick arms behind his back . Looking at Zhang Ruochen sitting cross-legged, he said, “I’d come on the Heir’s orders to investigate on Zhang Ruochen’s true state . Seems like I don’t have to do anything myself . ”
Yuan Hun had led the Luosha Princess away to send someone back secretly and check if Zhang Ruochen really was injured . If he was, then Zhentian Tiger could force Zhang Ruochen to use the divine weapon even if he couldn’t kill him .
Once the divine weapon lost its power, Zhang Ruochen would be defenseless .
Faced with Zhentian Tiger, Mu Lingxi felt great pressure . It was like a mountain-sized tiger walking over to her .
Each word that Zhentian Tiger spoke was like an earsplitting roar . Mu Lingxi’s delicate frame was about to fly out from the vibrations .
But Mu Lingxi was fighting hard against the pressure . She activated the Ice Phoenix blood, forming the huge projection of a phoenix . It blocked Zhang Ruochen and Le .
Zhentian Tiger eyed Mu Lingxi . “The Ice Phoenix Body isn’t bad, but you’re only in the middle of the True Saint Realm . You’re no different from an ant to me . ”
Mu Lingxi’s eyes were sharp . “Not necessarily . A True Saint deactivating her saintly source might still be enough to kill me . ”
“You think you can scare me by threatening with your life?”
Zhengtian Tiger scoffed . Looking at Qiu Yu on the ground, he said, “How about I undo the Saint-binding Chain and you kill Zhang Ruochen for me?”
Earlier, Qiu Yu was already in despair . Hearing Zhentian Tiger’s words, he seemed to see hope again .
He finally had a chance to turn the tides .
“I have an irrevocable rivalry with Zhang Ruochen,” Qiu Yu said quickly . “As long as you undo the Saint-binding Chain, today will be the day that he dies . ”
“I want all the treasures on Zhang Ruochen,” Zhentian Tiger said .
“I only want to kill him and erase my humiliation . As for his treasures… With my cultivation, I won’t dare to compete with you . ”
Actually, Qiu Yu didn’t care about Zhentian Tiger at all . If he killed Zhang Ruochen, Zhentian Tiger would be the next one .
Even a Supreme Saint would be tempted by Zhang Ruochen’s treasures . How could Qiu Yu not want them?
Plus, Zhentian Tiger had stepped on his head and spat in his face earlier . Qiu Yu had already been furious . It would be stranger if he didn’t kill Zhentian Tiger .
However, he was restricted, so he had to act weaker .
Zhentian Tiger nodded in satisfaction . He sent a crescent sword flying . It cut an arc and hit the Saint-binding Chain .
Mu Lingxi couldn’t stop that . Merely the destructive power that radiated from the sword forced her back .
With a thud, the Saint-binding Chain was broken .
Next, the restriction on Qiu Yu’s Holy Qi disappeared .
With a loud scream, Qiu Yu cut the remaining chains into dozens of pieces . Pressing on the ground, he spun and flew up, going straight for Zhang Ruochen .
Zhentian Tiger retreated into the distance . He crossed his arms as if watching a good show .
He didn’t attack because he couldn’t figure out if Zhang Ruochen was still able to activate the divine weapon . He was also a bit afraid that Mu Lingxi would really deactivate her saintly source .
It was the best that someone was willing to do it for him .
“Zhang Ruochen, I will extract your saint soul and turn you into a ghost slave . You’ll be my slave for eternity . ”
Qiu Yu’s eyes were bloodshot and the murderous intent in him was extremely strong . Seeing Mu Lingxi before Zhang Ruochen, he said coldly, “Move if you don’t want to die . ”
“If you want to kill Zhang Ruochen, you must cross over my dead body . ”
“It’s not so easy to die . Zhang Ruochen will be turned into a ghost slave while you’ll be my furnace . ”
Qiu Yu was badly hurt, but he still didn’t think highly about Mu Lingxi . He grabbed in the air and instantly, a dozen-meter-long hand of fire appeared . It went down to grab Mu Lingxi .
A rune scroll appeared between Mu Lingxi’s slender fingers . A wisp of Holy Qi was added in .
“Nine Overlapping Trial Runes . ”
The runes flew out and dissolved . Then nine trial thunders descended from the sky . They actually shattered Qiu Yu’s flame hand into wisps of smoke .
Next, Mu Lingxi took out a thick stack of defensive and offensive scrolls, hitting them out .
In an instant, a dozen layers of shields rose up around Mu Lingxi, Zhang Ruochen and Le . At the same time, an offensive rune hit Qiu Yu . He was actually forced into a miserable state and scorch marks appeared on him . Electricity flowed on his body and he would occasionally get frozen too .
Zhang Ruochen had stolen these scrolls from other Saints . He didn’t like to rely on outer force, so he gave almost all of them to Mu Lingxi .
However, Qiu Yu was strong and had advanced cultivation too . These scrolls could only delay him, rather than hurt him .
On the side, Zhentian Tiger was a bit worried . Yuan Hun couldn’t delay the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine for long . She could return at any time . With the unspeakable relationship between the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine and Zhang Ruochen, she would definitely help him .
“You can’t even take down a little girl,” Zhentian Tiger said in a low voice . “No wonder you can’t defeat Zhang Ruochen . ”
Qiu Yu felt embarrassed too . He activated a shred of the Tree God Qi and sent it into the Fire God Boxing Glove .
Whoosh!
Fire kept surging from within the Fire God Armor, transforming into a sea of fire .
“Break!”
Qiu Yu punched forward . An overwhelming force shattered the layers of rune shields . Even Mu Lingxi was sent flying while spitting out blood .
“Useless struggling . ”
Qiu Yu ignored the injured Mu Lingxi and strode toward Zhang Ruochen . The murderous intent bursting from him grew heavier .
Zhang Ruochen was working hard on recovering . He naturally sensed Qiu Yu approaching, but he was at the critical moment of recovery . He couldn’t even move a finger, let alone strike back .
Just as Qiu Yu was around seven feet from Zhang Ruochen, a gust of piercing coldness surged from the distance, forming a layer of thick ice on the ground .
Cold fire burned around Mu Lingxi . She flew back again, holding her sword before Zhang Ruochen . She stared at Qiu Yu . “I said, you must cross over my dead body if you want to kill him . ”
“You’re actually burning your blood to protect him . ”
“For him, so what if I burn my last drop of blood?”
The fire pouring out of Mu Lingxi was extremely cold . The surrounding temperature dropped drastically and the land under the abyss turned into a tundra .
“Okay, I’ll make it easy for you . ”
Qiu Yu activated the Fire God Boxing Glove and attacked, preparing to end this quickly .
After burning her saintly blood, Mu Lingxi’s combat abilities shot up . She blocked Qiu Yu’s strike .
However, her goal was to protect Zhang Ruochen and Le, so she was restricted in battle . After around 30 exchanges, Qiu Yu seized the opportunity . He punched Mu Lingxi’s abdomen, making her spit out blood and fly back .
However, Mu Lingxi was extremely resilient . She stood up again and waved her sword at Qiu Yu .
Qiu Yu lost all patience . Murderous intent gleaming in his eyes, he punched out with full force . Instantly, a huge fist print shattered half of Mu Lingxi’s bones . She fell to the ground and couldn’t stand up again .
Mu Lingxi lay in the pool of blood . She was in so much pain that she felt numb . Only her eyes could continue moving . She looked toward Zhang Ruochen with a helpless and tragic gaze .
Her bloodied fingers twitched, but she couldn’t pick up her sword again .
Mu Lingxi’s eyelids grew heavier and heavier . Her vision grew darker and darker . Just as she was about to lose consciousness, she seemed to see a figure in white stand before Zhang Ruochen .
It was a white-robed woman enveloped in light . Her black hair hung at her waist and every inch of her skin shone brilliantly . She was practically a fairy .
There was a white tail under her perky behind .
“Thankfully I came in time,” she said, as if talking to herself .
Qiu Yu looked at the white-robed woman standing beside Zhang Ruochen and frowned . Then he said coldly, “Princess White Li, do you dare to get involved in my business?”
