Chapter 558: Wu Liuqi vs Gailun

"Treasure?"

Hearing the word treasure, Wu Liuqi's eyes lit up.

"Is it possible for a million to drop?"

Wu Liuqi asked hurriedly.

With a million, he could go to Si Te Guo for surgery to recover his memory.

At the same time, he could pay off his debt to the miracle doctor and wouldn't have to work a side job selling beef offal.

"?" the group members.

"Why a million? Are you that short on money?" Ye Fan said.

"Yeah. Wu Liuqi, you're at least the number one Shadow Assassin. A single bounty starts at a million at the very least," Xu Que said.

"Also, why the hell do you need a million?" Morgana asked.

"For surgery, to recover my memory," Wu Liuqi said.

Xiao Shi asked curiously, "Um, haven't you already read the Script?"

"??" Wu Liuqi.

Oh right, he had already read the Script. What was the point of needing his past memories?

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Wu Liuqi realized suddenly.

"So, do you still want to try?" Yan Shuangying's voice came through.

"Let me think," Wu Liuqi said.

"Think my foot. This mechanism is a benefit for newcomers; in the future, you'll have to spend points to even enter the Arena. Even if a million doesn't drop, getting a divine weapon or a martial arts manual would be fine too," Wang Wu said.

"Martial arts manual!

"

Wu Liuqi was tempted; as a top-tier assassin, his martial arts naturally had to be top-tier as well.

Because of his amnesia, his martial arts had become very weak; aside from being able to take a beating, he basically hadn't won against anyone.

"Group Owner, I've decided. I want to use this opportunity," Wu Liuqi said.

As he finished speaking, Wu Liuqi's figure was summoned to the Virtual Arena.

"About to begin the Heavens and Myriad Worlds Reincarnation Channel matching."

The voice of the Chat Group came from the Virtual Arena, and the group members were also looking forward to seeing who the opponent would be.

"Matching started, matching in progress!"

"Matching successful."

"Demaxia · Gailun!"

Immediately, the Reincarnation Channel appeared, and a tall figure gradually became clear.

Before long, appearing in the eyes of the group members was a young man nearly two meters tall, wearing golden armor.

Before he even arrived, a vigorous and heroic voice was heard.

"Life is endless, battle is eternal!"

"Fight for those who cannot fight!"

"Demaxia!"

Boom!

Gailun leaped out and stood in the middle of the Arena, holding a greatsword, looking majestic and imposing, giving off a great sense of pressure.

"Whoa, a tough guy!" Wu Liuqi said subconsciously.

In the spectator area.

"This big guy, why does he feel somewhat familiar?" Morgana said.

"The scent of philosophy," Xu Que chuckled.

"Looks quite strong," Ye Fan said.

"Demaxia Gailun, from the Demaxia Kingdom, is a guard for Jia Wen San Shi. In a sense, the universe where this Gailun exists and your universe, Morgana, belong to parallel planes," Yan Shuangying said.

"What, a parallel universe. Gailun, Jia Wen, Demaxia, no wonder he looks familiar," Morgana's eyes revealed a look of realization.

"So, this Gailun isn't the counterpart to the Galaxy Power, is he?"

"Correct, he is indeed the Galaxy Power. It's just that this parallel universe doesn't do that technology stuff you guys do," Yan Shuangying said.

"Damn, then in that world, what am I like?" Morgana asked.

"You are still a demon, and the angel Kai Er is your sister and your mortal enemy—the kind that can't be redeemed," Yan Shuangying said.

"..." Morgana.

"Group Owner, how is this Gailun's strength?" Wang Wu asked.

"He grows stronger as his opponent grows stronger," Yan Shuangying said.

At this moment, Wu Liuqi and Gailun stared at each other.

"Hello there, tough guy. My name is Wu Liuqi, please go easy on me," Wu Liuqi greeted.

Gailun was serious a second ago, but the next second he revealed a somewhat lecherous smile and said:

"Tough guy, I like that title."

Actually, Gailun was still a bit confused. He had just been camping in a bush in Demaxia when he was suddenly summoned here.

However, he also understood his mission, which was to have a fight with the person in front of him.

This Wu Liuqi looked too weak; his strength probably couldn't be anything special.

"What is your name?" Gailun asked.

"Wu Liuqi, you can just call me A-Qi. It's a deal, let's just spar, no need to go all out," Wu Liuqi said.

"Rest assured, the people of Demaxia value martial virtue above all else," Gailun guaranteed.

"Make your move!"

Gailun plunged his great sword into the ground, not using the blade from the very start.

He felt that he could defeat Wu Liuqi by relying solely on his own formidable body.

Although affectionately called one of the Three Gentlemen of the Bush by the commoners of Demaxia, his physique had long been tempered through thousands of trials, as if made of steel.

Wu Liuqi's expression turned serious, and he said:

"Take this!"

"Hey, focus your spirit, use Qi to control the scissors!"

Before him, a pair of scissors hovered in mid-air, spinning rapidly under Wu Liuqi's mental control like a giant windmill; the speed was so great that it even emitted wisps of thunderous sound, with electric sparks flickering.

Whoosh!

The scissors tore through the Void at extreme speed, thrusting toward Gailun's chest.

"What a refined technique, but it is still not enough!"

"Ha!"

"As long as the tower stands, a real man never retreats!"

"Courageous advance!"

Gailun stood his ground and let out a great shout.

Golden light emerged all around him, and faint phantoms of shields could be seen.

Facing Wu Liuqi's attack, these shield phantoms absorbed it perfectly, and Gailun did not suffer a single bit of damage.

"Damn, what a tough guy. He's actually this hard."

"Focus your spirit, use Qi to control the scissors."

Sweat beaded on Wu Liuqi's forehead; continuously controlling the scissors consumed a great deal of internal energy.

But seeing that Gailun was completely fine, and his health bar was even full?

"Hehehe, use more strength, Ah Qi," Gailun laughed heroically.

"Got it, handsome!"

Suddenly, Wu Liuqi changed his hand gesture, and the scissors shifted direction to strike straight at Gailun's chrysanthemum.

In this flash of lightning, Gailun did not have time to protect himself.

Puchi!

Instantly, the chrysanthemum was ruined, the ground was covered in wounds, and the sunset glowed red; Gailun knelt on one knee on the ground, his expression looking incredibly ugly.

"Tough guy, I have to admit your strength is very powerful, but your speed is a bit slow.

As the saying goes, all is fair in war; don't blame me. At worst, you can come to my hair salon later, and I'll give you a discount," Wu Liuqi said.

Gailun did not reply, but wisps of green light appeared on his body.

In a daze, Wu Liuqi seemed to see the health bar above Gailun's head recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What the, he's cheating, a health recovery cheat, this is unfair," Wu Liuqi shouted loudly.

Unfortunately, no one paid him any mind.

Gailun stood up; although the chrysanthemum injury had recovered, the pain still remained.

It was one thing to be ambushed by Chrysanthemum Xin usually, but to be unable to avoid such a brilliant chrysanthemum ending here.

"Ah Qi, I am going to tell you why the flowers are so red."

Gailun was angry; he decided to make Wu Liuqi experience this feeling.

Holding his great sword in his hand, the air turned murderous in an instant; Gailun struck a starting pose and shouted:

"Fatal Strike!"

In Wu Liuqi's eyes, Gailun, who had previously been clumsy in speed, seemed to transform into a golden flash.
