467: Explain

Dongfang Yuqing didn't care about all that; he drew his sword directly at Qing Yi.

He had always been decisive in his actions and would not stop until he saw his enemy fall.

In this critical moment, Qing Yi could only fight back passively.

She also took out a cyan longsword, blocking Dongfang Yuqing's evil god sword.

As the Deputy Clan Chief of the Serpent-human Clan, she still had a few good items on her.

This cyan longsword was called the Green Snake Sword, ranked at heaven rank middle grade.

Although there was still a large gap between it and the evil god sword, it was enough to prevent her from being killed instantly.

Seeing their Deputy Clan Chief being attacked, the other 13 Martial Venerable Experts of the Serpent-human Clan regained their composure and simultaneously launched an attack on Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen also let out a low shout.

"Word Spirit, Divine Descent Heavenly Spirit!"

"Moon Gazing Art!"

"Sacred Dragon Transformation!"

His Aura suddenly surged, and his Realm rose from a Five-Star Martial Venerable to an Eight-Star Martial Venerable.

Seeing this, the many Serpent-human Clan experts were shocked once again.

Although this Lu Dazhuang was not as exaggerated as Dongfang Yuqing, he was still very formidable.

They hesitated for a moment before rushing toward Lu Xingchen.

So what if you can temporarily raise your Realm?

I don't believe that we 13 cannot defeat you alone!

They really couldn't defeat him.

Logically speaking, Lu Xingchen would not be able to dodge so many people's attacks at the same time.

But his shadow sword was truly a bit nefarious.

Six scabbards were enough to keep the Serpent-human Clan experts busy running for their lives.

What made them feel even more disgusted was that Lu Xingchen also used the "Empty Blade Gate"; four portals moved irregularly within the Secret Chamber, allowing him to change his position at any time.

Space power, that was something all experts in the Venerable Realm knew.

But they discovered with horror that even if they exhausted all their strength, they could not destroy Lu Xingchen's portals.

This one of the Nine Elites was simply too difficult to deal with!

With the combination of the shadow sword and the "Empty Blade Gate," his flexibility increased exponentially, and the many Serpent-human Clan experts couldn't even touch a corner of Lu Xingchen's clothes.

Meanwhile, Lu Xingchen was constantly whittling down their combat power.

The battle scene turned into Lu Xingchen alone suppressing 13 Martial Venerable Experts.

The 13 Martial Venerable Experts huddled together for survival, with the three Eight-Star Martial Venerables on the outside and the ten Five-Star Martial Venerables on the inside, defending against Lu Xingchen's attacks.

Lu Xingchen kept shifting his position, looking for opportunities to attack.

This scene was truly rather bizarre; he had surrounded 13 Serpent-human Clan Venerables with his own strength alone.

On the other side, Dongfang Yuqing had also completely suppressed Qing Yi.

In terms of weapons, swordsmanship, and Battle Qi intensity, he was firmly a cut above Qing Yi.

The only thing he was inferior in was his level of control over his Battle Qi.

Because he hadn't used this "Evil Soul Transformation" many times, he was not yet proficient in mastering the power of a Ten-Star Martial Venerable. His control over Battle Qi was not as good as Qing Yi's, and he needed to consume more Battle Qi to launch the same attacks.

But even so, he was still able to suppress and beat Qing Yi.

Qing Yi was exhausted from parrying and had no ability to fight back at all. She even used three secret techniques from the Serpent-human Clan's Legacy; it could be said that she had brought out everything she had at the bottom of the box, yet she could only ensure she wouldn't be defeated immediately.

She was extremely shocked in her heart and thought: "Truly, the new waves of the Yangtze River push the old ones. These two children are not even 30 years old, yet they can display such shocking combat power; it is simply inconceivable!"

"When I was young, I was also a Prodigy of the Serpent-human Clan. Although I look beautiful, I have actually lived for over a hundred years, yet I cannot even suppress a child."

"But the Serpent-human Clan is not to be humiliated by others! The two of them came to the Secret Chamber to steal things without a word; if they were to walk away swaggeringly, it would truly be too shameful. Even if I can't win, I must leave a few bloody marks on them!"

The battle lasted for five minutes, and Lu Xingchen and Dongfang Yuqing held the absolute upper hand.

All ten Five-Star Martial Venerables had been knocked down by Lu Xingchen and didn't even have the strength to stand up; the three Eight-Star Martial Venerables were also covered in wounds and would not be able to hold on much longer.

To prevent the Serpent-human Clan experts from being killed, he retracted his immortal slaying sword and used his shadow sword to fight.

Otherwise, these people would have died long ago.

On the other side, Qing Yi had already been struck by ten of Dongfang Yuqing's sword strikes, but eight of them had been blocked by her close-fitting inner armor; only two strikes had actually cut into her flesh.

Fortunately, the Serpent-human Clan had a secret technique called the "Green Spirit Art" that could resist external forces; otherwise, she would have long been torn apart by the evil-attribute Battle Qi and the evil god's power that had invaded her body.

But even so, she could not hold out for much longer.

Just at this moment, a stern shout rang out from afar.

"Stop for me!"

The iron door at the entrance of the Secret Chamber was kicked open, and Peng Yu spread her Dou Qi Wings and flew over in a hurry.

But when she saw the scene inside the Secret Chamber, she was completely stunned again.

She had originally prepared for the worst: Lu Xingchen being captured by Qing Yi, wantonly tortured, or even losing his life.

Unexpectedly, everyone lying on the ground was from the Serpent-human Clan, Clan Chief Qing Yi was in a sorry state, and there was also a Ten-Star Martial Venerable wearing a fox mask.

Her brain hadn't yet recovered, and for a moment, she couldn't speak.

But as soon as she saw that Lu Xingchen was still alive, she heaved a heavy sigh of relief.

A new variable had appeared, and not knowing whether Peng Yu was a friend or foe, Dongfang Yuqing sensibly stopped his attack and put some distance between himself and Qing Yi.

He had collected information before coming to the Yellow Springs Sand Sea and knew Peng Yu's identity.

Facing one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, he dared not underestimate her, so he gave Peng Yu some Face.

But if the other party turned out to be a foe rather than a friend, he would have no choice but to draw his sword again.

Lu Xingchen also retracted his shadow sword and waited quietly for Peng Yu to speak.

The three Eight-Star Martial Venerables heaved a sigh of relief and retreated behind Qing Yi, their eyes filled with shock and fear as they looked at Lu Xingchen.

Peng Yu didn't have time to worry about all that; she immediately flew to Lu Xingchen's side to check his condition.

When Peng Yu's Soul Power swept over his entire body, Lu Xingchen frowned.

It really was a Heavenly Realm Soul!

This power was far above his own.

If he were to fight Peng Yu again, although he could guarantee victory, he was certain that his Soul would definitely suffer heavy damage, and it might not recover even after resting for a few months.

Sure enough, none of the nine prodigies of the central continent were simple characters!

"Lu Dazhuang, are you okay?"

Although she had already used her Soul Power to probe Lu Xingchen's body, she was still worried and wanted to hear his personal confirmation.

Seeing Peng Yu's anxious expression, Lu Xingchen felt a bit guilty.

She trusted him so much and worried about his safety, yet he had violated their agreement and stolen the fire privately; he was truly acting a bit like a villain.

But he didn't blame himself too much.

She was just an outsider, far less important than his two wives; if he lost her trust, then so be it, it was no big deal.

Lu Xingchen shook his head slightly and said softly: "I'm fine!"

Peng Yu finally heaved a sigh of relief, but her expression changed immediately; the worry on her Face turned into indignation, and her tone instantly turned cold.

"Lu Dazhuang, can you explain to me what is going on right now?"
