Murong Xiao charged towards Gu Ruoyun once again after saying his piece.
...
Beneath the sky, two figures were battling continuously like two beams of light. Those who were at the lower range of cultivation could not even get a clear view of the confrontation.
Qianbei Ye clenched his fists tightly as his heart throbbed with pain. His peerless features were filled with worry.
He believes in Gu Ruoyun!
Only Gu Ruoyun would be able to follow through with everything that she has said.
However, that does not mean that he could remain unaffected whenever he saw Gu Ruoyun being injured! Even if he believes in her and allowed her to fight and improve herself, he would still feel heartache at the sight of her wounds.
He even felt the urge to transfer those wounds onto his body instead...
The woman's clothes were torn and tattered and her green robes were drenched in blood. The Nine Emperors in her hand was glowing loftily with a red light over the passage of time!
"Little girl, are you still not going to admit defeat?"
Murong Xiao laughed coldly. He then stepped up in the air and walked slowly towards Gu Ruoyun.
Zoom!
Gu Ruoyun made her move again and charged quickly behind Murong Xiao. The Nine Emperors then slashed down towards the top of his head. At that moment, even the very air seems to have been sliced into two by her attack, creating a hissing noise.
"You overestimate yourself!"
Murong Xiao scoffed coldly as he turned to face Gu Ruoyun and raised his hand to block the attack. Suddenly, a powerful and crushing sensation exploded from Gu Ruoyun's body and a gigantic storm formed above her head.
Break... A breakthrough?
She had triggered a breakthrough as she was attacking someone else?
The crowd was stunned as they stared at the woman who was continuing her assault. She did not stop even though she was in the middle of a breakthrough.
Actually, during her days in the Underworld, Gu Ruoyun had raised her power to the peak of a mid-stage Refined State cultivator. Hence, she was only one step away from breaking through to the late-stage of the Refined State. The battle today just happened to be that small step to help her achieve a breakthrough!
Boom!
The enormous sword slashed downwards with immense power!
She managed to gouge a hole in the ground, it was a ghastly sight.
Murong Xiao was unable to evade this attack and lost an entire arm. Blood trickled down, followed by a heart-wrenching shriek.
"Aaaarrgghhh!"
Murong Xiao let out a heart-rending scream. His expression has become terrified and extremely ferocious. His gloomy voice was hoarse as he spoke, "Gu Ruoyun, you've injured me! I will have you sliced and diced one day!"
Once he had said this, Murong Xiao no longer hesitated as he covered his bleeding shoulder and turned around, preparing to escape into the distance.
Abruptly, he paused in his footsteps and his eyes widened in shock as he looked at the crimson-robed man in front of him.
The man's crimson robes fluttered and his silver hair danced in the gentle wind. His peerless face could bring cities to ruin and his red eyes carried a demonic light. At this moment, he was staring gloomily at Murong Xiao.
"Where do you think you're going?"
His voice was deep and low but it carries a heavy sense of coercion. It caused Murong Xiao to tremble.
"Let me go. As long as you let me go, I guarantee that I'll never cause trouble for you!"
The man standing before him caused terror to grow from the bottom of his heart.
Even just listening to his voice made his heart tremble.
Only now does Murong Xiao realize how stupid he has been! Aside from the abnormal lunatic, Gu Ruoyun, there was also this terrifying man!
If this man had attacked him earlier on, how long would he be able to endure that crisis?
