Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 361 - 359: Two Eastern Territory Pinnacle Experts Join Forces—Can They Really Withstand an Attack?! The Shield Gifted by Ye Youyu!
Eastern Territory, thousands of miles outside East Cang City.
Lu Ye looked at the three people hesitating to make a move, knowing that although the president of the Wan Tong Commerce Association said that he didn’t have to worry about distributing the spoils,
his previous words still gave the three different thoughts.
No one wanted to be the first to act; they all wanted to reap the benefits as bystanders, leading to the current delicate situation.
At this moment, Qian Youming’s expression suddenly shifted, and he took out a Communication Jade Token to receive a message.
Gradually, Qian Youming’s face began to show signs of change.
The look he directed at Lu Ye also lost much of its hostility, becoming rather peculiar.
In the end, after receiving all the messages, after a moment of contemplation, Qian Youming said.
"Young man, do you know my niece Ruxue?"
Ruxue?
Suddenly hearing this name, Lu Ye was first taken aback, then nodded and replied, "Yes, Miss Ruxue and I are friends."
"Since you know my niece Ruxue, then in this matter... I won’t interfere." Qian Youming said directly.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ye felt a slight surprise in his heart.
Suddenly losing a strong Mortal Realm Grandmaster Sixth Layer opponent significantly improved his current situation.
After all, having one less of such a powerful opponent wasn’t just a simple matter of subtraction; combined, they posed an extremely terrifying threat.
"Thank you." Lu Ye cupped his hands in gratitude.
Hearing Qian Youming suddenly change his mind, the other two were all taken aback.
They could guarantee that the secrets on this person were definitely tempting enough.
Even a Grandmaster Perfection would be drawn in.
Why would Qian Youming suddenly give up, out of goodwill?
"No need, if there’s an opportunity, you can visit East Cang City sometime." Qian Youming always kept a smiling face, and after saying this, he turned and left without hesitation.
Having made his decision, staying here served no purpose; Qian Youming was quite clear about this.
The opportunity he referred to was naturally if Lu Ye could escape amidst this pursuit.
Though he decided to withdraw, there were still two peak experts among the top ten in the Eastern Territory who wouldn’t leave.
However, with Qian Youming’s departure, the encirclement formed by the three instantly had a gap.
At this moment, while the other two were still pondering why Qian Youming suddenly gave up, Lu Ye seized the critical moment and charged out through the gap in the encirclement with a bang!
"If you manage to escape, I’ll write my name, Fire Refining Elder, backwards."
Fire Refining Elder’s old face didn’t change, hands behind his back, as he stepped through the void in an instant to pursue.
After contemplating for a moment, Ren Congzhou hesitated, but the greed in his heart ultimately drove him to take action again.
Watching the three figures flee with a roar, Qian Youming, who had not gone far, sighed.
"Alas, Old Qian played the good guy for once, but this young lad... is likely doomed, making the goodwill pointless."
"It’s a pity that niece Ruxue seems to have some interest in this promising young man, or else she wouldn’t have come to plead with me."
...
Ten minutes later.
Intercepted by the Fire Refining Elder, Lu Ye exchanged a move with him from a distance.
In an instant, in the night sky, the Celestial Domain Source Qi exploded, the ensuing shockwave from their clash was enough to severely injure an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Lu Ye also took some damage from the exchange, his aura weakening in an instant.
Seeing Lu Ye withstand his move with only a slight weakening of his aura, Fire Refining Elder coldly laughed, "I must admit, your potential is indeed terrifying, but... that’s all there is to it."
In the previous strike, Fire Refining Elder didn’t use any martial techniques, relying purely on his own Source Qi to inflict damage.
Even so, the opponent was already struggling. Once he employed a martial technique, this farce would end.
Qian Youming’s burst of good intentions ultimately made no difference to the outcome.
In the next moment, Fire Refining Elder’s old eyes suddenly narrowed, and his dried-up hands swung fiercely.
Boom!
A scorching red disk silently formed in the night sky.
On the other side, Ren Congzhou looked at the scorching disk, a deep wariness flashing in his eyes.
"Blazing Flame True Flame Wheel!"
"This Fire Refining Demon uses a killing move right off the bat."
This top-tier secret manual is ranked as a Celestial Tier Lower Grade!
Even in the hands of Fire Refining Elder, it’s an absolute terrifying trump card.
Unexpectedly, facing this Mortal Realm Second Layer, the newly ranked second on the East Cang List, he directly unleashed it!
The moment the Blazing Flame True Flame Wheel appeared, it whistled through the air, rotating towards Lu Ye with force.
Wherever it passed, the Heaven and Earth Source Qi was scorched and twisted, showing a ripple.
At this moment, Lu Ye quietly breathed a sigh of relief because... Ren Congzhou, holding onto his pride, didn’t join the attack.
If both attacked together...
This Blazing Flame True Flame Wheel, Lu Ye sensed, wasn’t much different in grade from his Heaven-Defying Three Swords.
But the disparity in strength meant that the effect of the Heaven-Defying Three Swords would likely be significantly diminished.
Thus, Lu Ye’s hand turned from palm to finger in an instant, pointing across the air!
Inside his body, the pure Grandmaster’s Source Qi surged out unabashedly, an increasingly vivid Yin Yang Pisces Diagram suddenly manifesting in the void.
A faint wave of destruction emanated from this space!
"Yin Yang... Illusory Destruction Finger!"
Boom!
As Lu Ye unleashed this Lower Grade Divine Skill Finger Technique nearing Great Success, his face paled significantly.
This finger... was the strongest he had wielded since mastering the Illusory Destruction Yin Yang Finger.
In the void, the enormous Finger Seal collided violently with the rapidly rotating Blazing Flame True Flame Wheel, causing the surrounding Source Qi to explode instantly.
Rumble!
"Divine Technique?! You actually know a Divine Technique?!"
Seeing his True Flame Wheel stopped by a massive Finger Technique of the size of a millstone, Fire Refining Elder’s expression changed for the first night.
The gap between Divine Techniques and Celestial Tier Martial Techniques... is still too vast.
Meanwhile, beside him, Ren Congzhou’s face also changed, and with his mind racing, he hesitated no more to strike.
Celestial Profound Residual Spirit Blade!
Ren Congzhou’s move was none other than the top-tier martial technique from the Celestial Profound Sect, the terrifying Celestial Tier Middle Grade Sword Technique!
Waves of menacing sword light suddenly enveloped Lu Ye, who was contending against Fire Refining Elder.
In the critical moment, Lu Ye waved one hand, instantly forming several Mortal Realm Grandmaster Barriers to shield himself.
At the same time, a Pitch-Black Shield given to him by Ye Youyu during his time in the Youyu Realm flew out discreetly.
The dark light erupted, enveloping Lu Ye entirely, blocking all incoming attacks.
The terrifying sword light descended, relentlessly striking the dark light shield, emitting a nerve-shredding creak.
"Pfft!"
Although the Pitch-Black Shield blocked most of the damage, under continuous attacks from the Celestial Profound Residual Spirit Blade, Lu Ye’s expression finally changed subtly, and he couldn’t help but spit a mouthful of blood.
"He’s not dead?!"
This instant, Ren Congzhou’s expression changed again; this mere Mortal Realm Grandmaster Second Layer withstood consecutive strikes from both Fire Refining Demon and himself.
Though injured, this kind of feat... would be enough to shock the Eastern Territory if spread around!
Meanwhile, on another side.
A figure in a black robe swept over a vast region of the Eastern Territory, spreading his Spiritual Sense desperately to sense any movement within a ten-thousand-meter radius.
Finally, from a distant place in the south, faintly wild Source Qi fluctuations began emanating...
