The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!
At the same time!
Liu Mingxuan formed hand seals.
His powerful Spiritual Qi of the fifth level of the Qi Sea Realm transformed into invisible mental shocks, crashing into their minds like a tidal wave!
Physical and mental attacks descended simultaneously!
"Not good!"
Gu Ningxue and Song Yao's expressions changed drastically!
They could feel Liu Mingxuan's mental attack causing their thoughts to stagnate for an instant!
And that ten-thousandth of a second opening was fatal!
"Open!"
At the critical moment, Song Yao bit her silver teeth.
Recklessly, she danced the chain blade in her hand into a purple whirlwind, meeting Chen Yu's domineering and peerless saber qi!
Meanwhile, Gu Ningxue endured the stinging pain in her mind and condensed all her power into a single sword strike, pointing it toward Liu Mingxuan!
Boom—!!!
A deafening roar exploded!
The moment the chain blade in Song Yao's hand collided with the "Wind Splitting Slash," it was knocked out of her hand by the violent force!
She felt as if she had been struck by an ancient Vicious Beast.
With a muffled groan, a spray of blood shot from her mouth, and her delicate body flew backward uncontrollably, crashing heavily into a giant bamboo!
Pfft!
On the other side, although Gu Ningxue's sword successfully pierced Liu Mingxuan's Protective Spiritual Qi, it only made it flicker slightly.
She herself was shaken by the counter-shock, her blood churning and her face turning pale instantly!
Just one move!
The joint effort of the two great female Prodigies was instantly broken!
Furthermore, both were injured!
"An opportunity!"
"They can't hold on anymore!"
Seeing this, the surrounding Prodigies were like sharks smelling blood; a cruel light erupted in their eyes as they swarmed forward!
Pfft! Pfft!
Caught off guard, another deep wound, visible to the bone, appeared on Gu Ningxue's shoulder and Song Yao's thigh!
The two stumbled together, back to back, gasping for breath, a hint of despair appearing in their eyes for the first time.
The encirclement slowly tightened.
Liu Mingxuan and Chen Yu stepped forward slowly, wearing triumphant smiles, like a cat playing with a mouse.
"I told you, you can't escape."
Liu Mingxuan straightened his clothes and looked down at the two disheveled women, his tone filled with the pleasure of a victor.
"Hahaha! Gu Ningxue, Song Yao! Weren't you two quite capable of fighting? Get up and fight again!"
"Taking both of you down at once, our points will probably shoot straight to the top of the leaderboard, right?"
Chen Yu laughed wildly.
His eyes wandered unscrupulously over their battle robes, which were stained red with blood.
"Most importantly..." A cold arc curled at the corner of Liu Mingxuan's mouth, "with you two as important bargaining chips, I don't believe that coward Lin Yuan can keep hiding in Black Wind Valley forever!"
"What a brilliant plan to kill two birds with one stone!"
The surrounding children of aristocratic families also chimed in with smug agreement and sinister laughter.
They looked at the two female Prodigies trapped in the center, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Take them!" Chen Yu waved his hand, giving the final order. "Remember, I want them alive! I want that trash Lin Yuan to see with his own eyes how his beloved women beg for mercy before us!"
However.
Just a second before they were about to strike.
A terrifying aura, colder than winter and more evil than the abyss, suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping the entire bamboo forest!
"You think a bunch of rabble like you can touch her?"
A raspy voice filled with infinite malice rang in everyone's ears.
Chen Yu, Liu Mingxuan, and the others' expressions changed drastically as they whipped their heads around!
They saw two figures who had appeared not far behind them at some unknown time.
A man and a woman.
The man had a sinister face, his eyes filled with overwhelming hatred.
The woman was enchanting and seductive, but a hint of morbid cruelty hung at the corner of her mouth.
It was Ye Xuan and Li Xuan'er!
"Ye Xuan?!"
"It's you, you piece of trash!"
When they saw who it was, Chen Yu and Liu Mingxuan were first stunned, and then extremely disdainful and mocking smiles appeared on their faces.
The people behind them were also students of the Capital Martial Arts Academy, who had often mocked Ye Xuan in the past.
"I wondered who it was; so it's you, the stray dog! What? Instead of hiding well outside, you dare to come here and seek death?"
"Hahaha, perfect! We'll start with you before dealing with Lin Yuan!"
They didn't take Ye Xuan seriously at all!
In their view, even if a piece of trash with a shattered Dao Heart who was wanted by the Alliance appeared here, what kind of waves could he possibly make?
"You're looking for death!"
A terrifying killing intent instantly erupted in Ye Xuan's eyes!
What he hated most was being called trash and a stray dog!
Boom—!
A violent, blood-black Spiritual Qi burst forth from his body!
He charged into the crowd like a cannonball!
"What?!"
The smiles on Chen Yu and Liu Mingxuan's faces instantly froze!
They felt it!
That Spiritual Qi was violent, evil, but... incredibly powerful!
It was definitely above the sixth level of the Qi Sea Realm!
"Not good! We underestimated him!"
They wanted to retreat, but it was already too late!
"Ah—!"
Screams of agony rose one after another!
Ye Xuan was like a god of slaughter returned from Hell.
With every move, a Prodigy was torn to shreds by his eerie blood-colored claw strikes!
Li Xuan'er also transformed into a pink phantom; with every flicker, a male Disciple would be left dazed by her seductive laughter as she drained his essence!
How was this a battle?
This was clearly... a one-sided massacre!
In less than a minute.
The elite squad of the "Slay Yuan Alliance," which had been so arrogant just moments ago, was left with only Chen Yu and Liu Mingxuan, who were covered in blood and slumped on the ground, looking at the two demon-like figures before them in horror!
"Hahaha... Hahahaha!"
Ye Xuan stepped on Liu Mingxuan's chest and let out a manic laugh!
"So you looked down on me! So you mocked me!"
"What about now?!"
"Aren't you still crawling at my feet like dead dogs?!"
"You... you..." Liu Mingxuan and Chen Yu's eyes were filled with Fear, "How did you... become so strong?!"
"Want to know?"
A cruel smile appeared on Ye Xuan's face.
"Go ask Yama in Hell!"
He was about to deliver the killing blow.
"Stop!"
Gu Ningxue's cold voice rang out.
Ye Xuan slowly turned his head, his eyes filled with malice and killing intent, locking onto Gu Ningxue!
That hatred was ten thousand times more intense than what he felt for Liu Mingxuan and Chen Yu!
"Gu Ningxue!"
He squeezed the name out from between his teeth, one word at a time.
"Do you think I'll listen to you?"
"Since you're so close to that bastard Lin Yuan, you should have died long ago!"
Li Xuan'er also walked over, her eyes filled with the flames of jealousy as she looked at Gu Ningxue's exquisite face.
"That's right! That position should have been mine! It was you who stole everything that belonged to me!"
"Gu Ningxue, you deserve to die!"
