Chapter 1377: Lixue's Elegant Speech

"Qiu Baiyi's words made Lixue's teeth grind so hard they clicked; he wished he could rush up and fight that woman to the death right now."

"But reason told him that going all-out against that woman now would be absolutely foolish."

"That woman is deliberately provoking me; if I really rushed up, I'd fall into her trap."

"So, despite being full of anger, Lixue gritted his teeth, stayed silent, and never directly clashed with Qiu Baiyi."

"Even though he was completely suppressed, Lixue remained unmoved."

"Lixue could bend and stretch, but his doing so annoyed Qiu Baiyi; it was like a turtle—there was nowhere to strike."

"Although he was completely suppressed now and had suffered some injuries, frankly, those injuries were utterly painless to Lixue and could not cause any real harm."

"If Lixue continues to play it safe like this, there really is nothing one can do against him in the short term."

"No matter how Qiu Baiyi tried to goad him, Lixue remained unmoved, resolved to play it safe to the end."

"While Qiu Baiyi and Lixue were locked in fierce combat, the Viper had already pursued them out of the Tianwu Realm and arrived at the Wújìn Xīnghǎi, still refusing to relent."

"In his view, Ye Zhangqing was surely aboard that Star Battleship, so he would rather employ the Mìfǎ than let Ye Zhangqing go."

"What he didn't realize was that, after pouring all his strength into death-gripping the Star Battleship and refusing to let go, there was no trace of Ye Zhangqing inside—only that spirit chef who had been rendered speechless."

"The Star Battleship is an Emperor-level star vessel; its speed is certainly above that of any Emperor Sovereign Realm expert."

"Moreover, the Star Battleship can maintain top speed for extended periods, something an Emperor Sovereign Realm expert cannot do."

"I had thought that once we left the Tianwu Realm, the Viper would give up, since trying to catch a Star Battleship on two legs is nothing short of a daydream—unless I stop and wait for you."

"But could that spirit chef possibly wait? Obviously not."

"Who would have thought that, even after leaving the Tianwu Realm, the Viper behind us still refuses to quit, doggedly pursuing us."

"He even went so far as to unleash the Mìfǎ."

"\"What the hell are you chasing me for? \""

"Seeing the Viper doggedly pursuing him from behind, the spirit chef was truly speechless."

"\"You're chasing Ye Zhangqing to the Tianwu Realm? He hasn't even left! \""

"However, the spirit chef gritted his teeth and did not betray Ye Zhangqing; although he feared death and left, all in all he could still be considered a man of honor."

"Furthermore, Ye Zhangqing had treated him well these past days; even though he himself had left now, he would not betray Ye Zhangqing."

"Having pushed the Star Battleship to its maximum speed, at this moment a Star Battleship and a person were racing one after another through the Wújìn Xīnghǎi."

"Other Star Battleships and Xingkong Ships around the Tianwu Realm, seeing this scene, were all dumbfounded."

"\"What the hell just whooshed past? \""

"\"A Star Battleship—you can't even see it clearly. \""

"\"I know that's a Star Battleship; I'm asking what that little black shadow behind the ship is. \""

"\"Huh??? Is there one? \""

"\"How could there not be? It's tightly chasing the Star Battleship. \""

"\"It couldn't be a person, could it? \""

"\"How could that be? Who the hell would be stupid enough to chase a Star Battleship? \""

"No one could have imagined that the one chasing the Star Battleship would be a person; ordinary folks all know you can't catch a Star Battleship by chasing it."

"Unless you intercept it the moment the Star Battleship just starts up, before it has a chance to lift off—that's the only possibility."

"But in the situation just now, the Star Battleship was already underway; you still want to chase it?"

"The Viper's persistence is indeed beyond imagination; chasing the Star Battleship is like biting down and refusing to let go—at this moment, the spirit chef aboard the Star Battleship."

"From the initial panic and fear, through later tension, he has now become completely numb."

"With a blank expression, he watched the Viper still doggedly pursuing from behind, the spirit chef focusing solely on pushing the Star Battleship to top speed."

"In the midst of the chase and escape, suddenly a golden light pierced the Viper's brow."

"This was an Imperial-order Chuānyīn fú; before the Viper could even react, Lixue's beautiful voice echoed in its mind."

"\"Damn it, where did you run off to? You're practically chasing them to their home, %￥#%￥&……%￥%……￥\""

"\"Hurry back, I can't hold on any longer. \""

"\"Huh??? \""

"He laid into the Viper's eighteen generations of ancestors; hearing this, the Viper's face darkened."

"And just in that moment of distraction, the Star Battleship pulled away."

"Watching the Star Battleship dwindle to a tiny black dot, the Viper's teeth clicked as he gritted them, yet he still halted his steps."

"He had never caught up before, and now he'd wasted this time, making any chance even slimmer."

"Most importantly, he felt the side effects of the Mìfǎ beginning to manifest."

"\"Can't even handle a woman? \""

"Having failed to catch Ye Zhangqing and then being cordially greeted by Lixue, the Viper's inner rage can be imagined."

"Gritting his teeth, he uttered a line and could only turn back toward the Tianwu Realm."

"Rolling back time a bit, Lixue, who was under Qiu Baiyi's frenzied onslaught, initially hoped to stall until the Viper arrived."

"But he waited left and right, yet the Viper's silhouette never appeared."

"Even though he had already been sufficiently despicable, as time went on, Lixue's injuries kept worsening."

"Even if they were minor wounds, they accumulate, and eventually there comes a limit."

"The main reason is that Lixue never expected the Viper to be away this long—what the hell are you chasing after?"

"And because the Viper failed to return for a long time, this gave Qiu Baiyi another opening."

"Originally he was worried about the Viper's return, but now that the Viper hasn't shown up for ages, Qiu Baiyi naturally won't hold back."

"As it grew harder to endure, Lixue's inner rage burned ever fiercer."

In the end, there was no choice; he could only take out a transmission talisman to contact the Viper.

At first he still used a Saint-level transmission talisman, but the result..................

"Damn, he indeed ran off to the Wújìn Xīnghǎi."

Afterward, with no other option, he gritted his teeth and used an Emperor-level transmission talisman, finally managing to contact the Viper.

However, while using the transmission talisman, the Viper was accidentally struck and injured by Qiu Baiyi.

Even though his reaction was already fast enough, Qiu Baiyi still landed a palm strike on Lie Xue's chest.

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, and his aura instantly slumped.

It was already injury upon injury; this blow dealt a significant strike to the Viper.

And Qiu Baiyi naturally would not miss this opportunity; he gave Lie Xue no time to breathe, directly pursuing and unleashing a fierce assault on him.

Under Qiu Baiyi's frenzied assault, Lie Xue gritted his teeth and held on, but he was still beaten back step by step.

If the Viper doesn't come soon, he'll practically be collecting his own corpse.

"Lie Xue, you have no chance."

"Hmph, can you kill me before the Viper arrives? Qiu Baiyi, although I don't know what means you used, you have no chance."
