Chapter 223

Chen Wenwu had already been shocked by the sudden turn of events, his body injured, his internal organs in pain, and seeing the two coming from above and below like gods of death, his battle intent wild, he was naturally terrified.

There was absolutely no time to think.

Hearing the words "Kill Chen Wenwu first," after his feet touched the ground, he retreated violently, then turned and used the Spirit Smoke Fog Invisibility technique, rushing off the stone bridge, flying onto the buildings by the bridge, and escaping without a trace.

That speed was the fastest in his life.

He only had one thought in his heart, cursing the two: "Only daring to pick on the soft persimmons!"

According to Li Youyi's plan, the first move was the best chance to kill Hua Yuzi directly.

Hua Yuzi was indeed very strong, much stronger than an ordinary inheritor; one-on-one, he could defeat them in a crushing manner within dozens of moves. But except for Luan Sheng Lin You, Ge Xiantong, and Zuo Qiu Hong, who would dare to say they could fight one against two and win against the combined force of two inheritors?

Which inheritor was simple?

They could all trade blows with the weakest Dao Seed realm Wu Xiu.

Even someone as strong as Cang Li, before his seventh sea was complete, had to lose to the combined force of Long Ting and the Heartless Golden Ape.

It could be said that even if Hua Yuzi was at his peak, Li Youyi and Yang Qingxi joining forces could withstand his first five moves without being defeated.

"Clang!"

The Tai Xuan Needle's light was blinding, but Hua Yuzi didn't dare to close his eyes, forcefully pulling up a breath of magic Qi and blowing it into the flowing silver mask on his face.

The flowing silver mask left his face, condensing into an incredibly mysterious silver shield seal, blocking the most dangerous first sword Yang Qingxi aimed at his brow.

"Whoosh!"

Li Youyi struck out with the Cihang Aperture Opening Finger force from a distance, whipping up thousands of flying snowflakes, majestic and domineering to the extreme, arriving at the same time as the Tai Xuan Needle. With Hua Yuzi's current state, how could he block two major killing moves at once?

After hard-resisting the coffin lid's impact, he swung the silver ruler of the Hundred-Character Scripture magic tool that he hadn't had time to activate.

"Boom!"

The silver ruler exploded the finger force beam.

The light pierced through the night, and the energy force spread to hundreds of meters away.

Li Youyi secretly marveled at the terrifying combat power of Hua Yuzi; in such a desperate situation, he could still block the first ambush of the two, which was simply heaven-defying.

Since it was a premeditated ambush, naturally he couldn't give Hua Yuzi any chance to catch his breath.

While striking with the Cihang Aperture Opening Finger, he slashed down with the Huang Long Sword, dragging out a yellow crescent-like sword light.

Just the residual force of the sword light slashed a crack and groove into the stone bridge, which was protected by an array.

"Pfft!"

The protective magic Qi that Hua Yuzi had just raised was scattered by this sword light, he spat blood again, retreated several steps, and found it difficult to effectively condense the magic Qi in his body.

He hated Chen Wenwu to death at this moment.

If Chen Wenwu hadn't fled and had blocked for him for a few seconds, he would definitely have had the ability to instantly turn the battle around.

The two's fighting style was too fast; Hua Yuzi couldn't even escape, and if he dared to turn around, he would die instantly.

The shield seal formed by the flowing silver mask couldn't block Yang Qingxi's sword.

"Rip!"

The Tai Xuan Needle pierced through Hua Yuzi's neck like lightning.

The tip of the sword emerged from the back of his neck...

Bizarrely, Hua Yuzi didn't change his expression, gritting his teeth and humming, instead punching Yang Qingxi in the chest.

This punch was delivered with his formidable physical body.

Yang Qingxi's protective magic Qi and battle intent were both pierced through, and finally, the magic tool battle robe on her body blocked Hua Yuzi's fist. Her body flew backward several feet, she knelt on one knee, supporting her body with her sword, gritted her teeth and spat out a mouthful of blood, her eyes cold, and she quickly killed her way back.

Yang Qingxi was very clear that as long as she could kill Hua Yuzi tonight, her father and grandfather would have sufficient reasons and confidence to protect her life in front of the various families of the Sui Sect.

Killing Hua Yuzi would be enough to make her and the Sui Sect famous throughout the world, and it was even very likely that she could enter the eyes of that Second Palace Master.

Then let's fight with our lives!

There would never be such a chance to change fate again, absolutely never.

"Ah..."

Hua Yuzi was overwhelmed, and although he punched Yang Qingxi away, he was also shaved on the scalp by Li Youyi's sword, losing even a small piece of his skull.

Li Youyi's sword was meant to cut off his neck, but it was avoided by his rapid speed.

Hua Yuzi was not human, so being pierced in the neck by Yang Qingxi's sword wasn't fatal. But having his scalp and skull shaved off by the Huang Long Sword made him feel unbearable pain, and a bizarre power invaded his skull, spreading to his whole body.

He couldn't fully mobilize the magic Qi in his body at this moment, couldn't refine it immediately, and still had to deal with the dense, seamless attacks of the two.

"Bang!"

Yang Qingxi stabbed Hua Yuzi in the chest with her sword.

The tip of the sword was blocked by the magic tool battle robe, but the battle robe wasn't fully activated and couldn't help him neutralize much of the penetrating force.

Hua Yuzi was thrown backward...

Li Youyi followed closely, swinging his sword rapidly.

"Pfft!"

The sword broke through Hua Yuzi's magic tool battle robe, and a foot-long bloodstain appeared on his chest, revealing the white bone inside.

Yang Qingxi descended from the sky, stabbing a fatal sword toward Hua Yuzi's brow.

"You... are courting death..."

The angry voice resounded through the night, roaring so loudly that the stone bridge couldn't bear it anymore and collapsed with a boom.

Hua Yuzi, who had hard-resisted their three strikes, finally mobilized enough magic Qi, and six-colored brilliance erupted from his body. Even the blood in his wounds turned six-colored.

"Sizzle, sizzle!"

The robe on his body was torn, six-colored feathers grew from his skin, and his arms turned into wings...

In an instant, he returned to his original form, becoming a giant six-colored peacock over ten meters long, its gorgeous tail feathers spreading out with burning flames, colliding with the ten-meter-long silver long river falling from mid-air.

"Pfft!"

The silver long river intent exploded, and Yang Qingxi was beaten into a mess by his tail feathers, falling backward, covered in blood.

But the desperate sword also nailed the Tai Xuan Needle into Hua Yuzi's body.

Although Hua Yuzi had turned into a giant six-colored peacock, the wounds created by the Huang Long Sword were even more shocking, growing larger as his body grew larger. Especially the sword wound on his chest and abdomen, which was several meters long and half a meter deep.

Li Youyi's attack failed, his protective magic Qi was torn apart by Hua Yuzi's claw, and he felt as if he had been hit by a five-fingered mountain, the bones in his body rattling, and he was instantly severely injured.

Facing an expert of this level, once he reacted and stabilized his decline, any strike was very hard for the current Li Youyi to withstand.

This was also why he didn't release the Phoenix-Winged Moth Emperors.

Facing Hua Yuzi, they only had a golden time of one or two breaths, and could only fight fast. The attack power of the Phoenix-Winged Moth Emperors at this stage would be hard to cause a fatal wound to Hua Yuzi, and would instead hinder Li Youyi and Yang Qingxi from attacking.

Li Youyi retreated quickly, seeing the giant six-colored peacock was already red-eyed and attacking again. He also saw the Left and Right Attendants stabilizing their injuries and rushing over, as well as the fleeing Chen Wenwu returning.

Knowing the situation was lost, no matter how unwilling, he had to leave.

"Go!"

Li Youyi roared, pulling back Yang Qingxi, who was severely injured but still wanted to fight with her life.

"Don't go! There's still a chance, a once-in-a-thousand-years chance, I'm not willing..." Yang Qingxi's hair was disheveled, her killing intent thick.

"Slap!"

Li Youyi slapped her heavily on the face.

Even if they killed Hua Yuzi, being surrounded by Chen Wenwu and the Left and Right Attendants, they would definitely die in their current severely injured state.

Yang Qingxi clenched her fists, turned her face, looked at Li Youyi with cold and ruthless eyes, spat out a mouthful of blood, and calmed down: "Go!"

The two jumped off the broken bridge and fell into the water.

The river water was abnormally cold, but because it flowed down from Taoli Mountain and absorbed magic Qi, it didn't freeze.

Yang Qingxi's water escape technique was unleashed, Li Youyi hugged her neck tightly, and in his ears was the sound of rapid water flow, incredibly fast, simply bizarre.

She was too severely injured and had to carry someone, and after escaping only four miles along the river, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The technique stopped...

The two floated up from the water.

Li Youyi sensed something, looked back, and his scalp instantly went numb.

He saw a giant six-colored bird shadow flying along the winding river, tracking them by their Qi. That terrifying killing intent made people shudder even from miles away.

Hua Yuzi possessed sensitive magic Qi perception like Er Feng, so he knew it was Yang Qingxi who snatched the five boxes of Spring Coins. And at this moment, it was also by relying on this perception that he judged the direction of Yang Qingxi's water escape.

Yang Qingxi finished adjusting her breathing, her face pale as death, and she said tremblingly: "Go... I can escape one more time..."

Li Youyi stared fixedly at the giant bird shadow getting closer in mid-air: "Don't run! Since it dares to chase alone, let's send it on its way."

Li Youyi's previous fear was being surrounded by Chen Wenwu and the Left and Right Attendants, fearing he couldn't get away. But Hua Yuzi was too fast, pulling away from the three chasing on the ground.

And this distance was Li Youyi's chance to strike.

And there was only one chance to strike.

"You want to fight again? We are both severely injured, we absolutely cannot fight anymore, there's no chance," Yang Qingxi said.

Li Youyi said: "Right! You think we have no chance, and he will think so too; he is also severely injured."

Yang Qingxi's eyes showed crazy battle intent: "Fine! Then let's compare with him whose life is tougher!"

"What stage of Qi?"

"Sixth stage."

"Very good, if you can withstand one of his strikes and not die, he will definitely die today. As long as you have a breath left, I will definitely take you away."

After Li Youyi stuffed the Ghost Flag to her, he quickly submerged into the water and disappeared.

"Why aren't you running?"

Although Hua Yuzi was injured in the head by the Huang Long Sword, he hadn't completely lost his mind; the reason he chased was because he knew how severely injured Yang Qingxi was and that she definitely couldn't run far.

Yang Qingxi stared at the rapidly approaching Hua Yuzi, the madness in her eyes instead becoming restrained, entering an unprecedented state of rationality and calmness, injecting magic Qi into the Ghost Flag.

In the Ghost Flag, the nether mist gradually surged out.

Releasing the Ghost General took time. For an expert duel where life and death were decided in an instant, this time was a bit too long!

Hua Yuzi knew there was a Ghost General in the Ghost Flag whose combat power was not inferior to his, so how could he give Yang Qingxi the chance to release it? Thus, he flapped his wings violently, erupted with his fastest speed, dived down, and wanted to tear her into pieces in advance.

"Whoosh!"

Li Youyi leaped from the water on its right side, stepping on the Huang Long light shadow, and instantly appeared above the head of the six-colored peacock. Ten feet above the water surface.

Five battle intents appeared behind him, and five figures of Li Youyi simultaneously evolved martial arts moves.

He gripped the sword hilt tightly with both hands and raised it above his head.

At this moment, he erupted with fourteen-tenths of his combat power, reaching the level of an inheritor.

"Whoosh!"

A sword Qi longer than the six-colored peacock's body, like a dazzling ribbon, slashed at its neck.

"Pfft!"

The head and body were separated, blood flowing like a waterfall.

The river water was dyed red.

The headless peacock corpse fell down, splashing a large amount of water.

Then it floated up, drifting on the water surface.

When Chen Wenwu and the Left and Right Attendants arrived, they only saw this shocking and horrifying scene, and their hearts sank to the bottom, secretly shouting: "Oh heavens, it's over!"
