Chapter 648: Everyone Loves Butterflies, Who Would Love a Fly? (Part 4)

"Where did you get the Qilin fire?" Yu Sicheng lowered his head and touched his eye socket, digging out the rotten eyeball and throwing it at his feet.

After asking this question, he paused himself, raised his head, and said indifferently: "Hmm, in Li Zhi's hands."

Seeing Pei Ye did not answer. The opponent not attacking again like he was forcing his life was good news for him, and it also allowed him to have a gap to digest the strange information that had rushed toward him in the flash of lightning.

The Vermilion Lotus fire burned the slippery blood from his palms—most of it actually came from the black Chi. Seeing Pei Ye gripped the sword hilt again.

The position of the Bone Pivot was not wrong, he thought.

There was no sword strike more precise than that. Even that smooth sphere couldn't slide his sword tip away... This kind of precision and the condensation of Qi into silk at that distance, this kind of sword strike under this kind of manipulation, was absolutely the peak of his sword technique, the subtlety honed from suffering under Yang Zhenbing's sword day after day.

The ignition of the Qilin fire also had no accidents. The opponent didn't block it, and the high temperature had already scorched a piece of charred black on the back of that purple robe.

But the Bone Pivot just wasn't broken open.

Did Yu Sicheng plate another layer of protection on the Dragon Gold? Over the past twenty years, he should indeed have made this skeleton more perfect... but the weakness of 【Mercury Flower Gonghua Gonghua Gonghua Fucha】 was only Qilin fire.

How could you discard the Qilin true fire? This was not a weakness; this was a symbol of loyalty, the qualification to stand in the Great Ming Palace.

Or, did he not find the true usage of this kind of fire? But the fire had never had any secrets in his palm. How else could a fire be used?

Or perhaps, it was wrong from the very beginning. Yu Sicheng didn't rely on it to defeat Zi Liang back then; he had walked entirely into a side path.

Seeing Pei Ye took a deep breath. Regardless of which possibility it was, he no longer had Qilin fire.

"You know me very well, well enough to exceed my expectations." Yu Sicheng looked at him. "Did Guo You tell you? Or did Princess Jinyang show her divine power?"

"Since you knew Guo You would reveal the information, why didn't you kill him?" Seeing Pei Ye said.

"I didn't kill him. Have you defeated me?" Blood flowed out from his eye socket, dripping over the purple-gold on his left cheek. Yu Sicheng still had an indifferent expression.

Seeing Pei Ye was silent.

This was probably the enemy Seeing Pei Ye had seen who cared the least about the injuries on his own body. In the engagement just now, as long as he had reserved two-tenths of his strength for himself, Seeing Pei Ye would have barely been able to hurt him. Especially now that it was proven that Qilin fire was ineffective against him, he could have won completely in this battle.

But he still fought with all his might, not caring about exchanging injuries, just to kill the youth here.

When Seeing Pei Ye realized this kind of cruel determination, he truly cast his gaze onto Yu Sicheng's body, as if piercing through the purple robe and skin and flesh.

Yes, he had even abandoned his entire body.

A Dragon Gold skeleton that had been entirely replaced, filled with poisonous mercury liquid. After the large robe was torn open, Seeing Pei Ye realized that the purple-gold on his face and the bone spurs protruding from his chest and abdomen were probably the same product, just polished smooth... They had never appeared on the blueprint.

And now, another person was growing on him. The dragon body flowed into his torso, and half of his body had already grown cold scales. He had abandoned himself entirely from bone and flesh to meridians, changing into these strange metals and scale demons.

Was a person still a person after reaching this step? Seeing Pei Ye remembered the scene of him indifferently watching the sword pierce into his own eyeball just now.

But more importantly, it was the current battle situation.

Yu Sicheng had no intention of letting him go. That suffocating lock had pressed onto his body again. The yellow pupils began to elongate up and down, and flesh and blood were still flowing and adjusting on his body. He had made preparations for ten years to enter the Luoshen Palace, and at this moment, he would absolutely not allow anyone to block his way.

At this moment, Seeing Pei Ye looked back at Li Xizhou. The riot in the water area just now had clearly affected her as well, but she had still stabilized her figure while staggering. At this time, she was standing far away outside the battlefield, looking over. Clearly, she had also seen the fiercely burning golden fire and the sword strike that had achieved nothing just now.

The red clothes were like a ball of fire in the water and in the wind, though it burned very slowly in the water. Seeing Pei Ye confirmed that she was generally safe, and also identified that Yu Sicheng seemed to have no intention of hurting her, so he slightly relaxed his heartstrings.

Li Xizhou had just barely caught her breath.

It was completely different in the water than in the wind. The waves generated by the two fighting would be transmitted very realistically. Li Xizhou learned from Seeing Pei Ye and picked a Luoshen peach blossom from the ground to put in her mouth, but it didn't feel much better—actually, after entering this space, she had already felt like she was walking on flat ground, just still a little unaccustomed.

Because actually, she didn't know how to swim.

However, her attention wasn't much on herself at this time. She pursed her lips and looked at the two people confronting each other, knowing that the fight might start again within two breaths, but Seeing Pei Ye no longer had the means to win.

It really wasn't Qilin fire, she thought.

This palace's intuition had always been very accurate. I told you last time and you didn't take it seriously; now you're going to lose your life.

Li Xizhou's lips were pursed into a white line, her eyes staring straight at the battlefield. It wasn't Qilin fire, so what exactly was it?

She had also seen the traces of the fire with her own eyes, and she also held the melted fragments in her hand... This substance that crushed 【Mercury Flower Gonghua Gonghua Gonghua Fucha】 undoubtedly existed. Could it be another kind of fire with similar manifestations?

Her flying thoughts were suddenly interrupted. In the battlefield ahead, Yu Sicheng had already crashed before Seeing Pei Ye, the water area screamed and boiled again, and he smashed him flying with one spear strike!

Even with the black Chi shielding him in time, Seeing Pei Ye still felt the stiffness of his five viscera shaking again.

Blood seemed to be about to burst out from his ears and eyes. After a few breaths of pause, the explosion Yu Sicheng had accumulated far exceeded Seeing Pei Ye's recovery.

Only at this moment could he remember that he was facing an Audience Palace official with a Seventh Life body. He had a killing sword that amazed the Divine Capital, but what carried his life was a mortal body of flesh and blood. As long as one spear strike hit solidly, he had almost no possibility of survival.

He could hold on for this move because his Immortal Hunt could still support him.

Seeing Pei Ye was standing his body unsteadily. The black Chi had already circled him again, the handsome Chi head hanging just above his head. Man and Chi were like growing into one body.

With their minds connected, the Immortal Hunt could always shield, pull away, or push away his fragile body at the right time.

However, the black Chi's blood had already dyed the surrounding water a pale red.

To guarantee his sword strike, the black Chi had no room to maneuver with Yu Sicheng. It could only rely on its body to take the hits hard time after time. Among the many Immortal Hunts, the black Chi was actually not good at the slaughter of claws and teeth like the Bu Bian. It was a spiritual object that saw the head but not the tail, and should disappear with the fog and appear with the fire. It also couldn't hold on for a few full-power explosions of 【Mercury Flower Gonghua Gonghua Gonghua Fucha】.

A loud explosion in the water, and Yu Sicheng had already forced his way over with his spear again. He didn't have the technique of a merman swimming with the water, but he was far faster than them!

Seeing Pei Ye raised his sword to unload. The rigidity and ferocity of Yu Sicheng's spear momentum lay in the fact that there was no room for maneuver for sword techniques like 【Eating Leaves】. In just one touch, either you caught it, or you collapsed. So Seeing Pei Ye could only use 【Drifting Returning Wind】 to maneuver. He had to admit that at this moment, he had absolutely no idea how to proceed, so using the sword was only for support.

He barely avoided the fate of being torn to shreds, but his tendons and bones were once again torn as if broken in the violent power.

Yu Sicheng's powerful figure had already pressed over again.

Seeing Pei Ye looked at the cold yellow pupils that were almost close at hand. At this time, a light, rising remark came to his ears.

"Meeting again, how did you run here... and get so heavily injured?"

Seeing Pei Ye glanced over. The light, transparent shadow of Luo Weiyou appeared in his field of vision. The next instant, the whistling power collapsed like a mountain, and he left another mouthful of blood and was smashed flying away. ===== CHAPTER 649 =====
