Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 535 Big Brother is not that kind of person
Dugu Qingfeng, true to his name, was like a gentle breeze—calm, simple, and ordinary.
Such a person, even walking down the street, would not attract a second glance, like a wisp of dust, fleeting.
But now, he was looking at Chen Pingping.
WHOOSH!
Everyone followed his gaze, all turning their heads in this direction.
"Why is he looking at you?" Yue Wuxia couldn’t help but ask.
"I have no idea!" Chen Pingping’s face darkened. Bro, don’t look at me! It would be better to meet somewhere private.
He had probably guessed it was because of the Giant Que.
Dugu Qingfeng sensed the Giant Que on him; it was a Divine Weapon of his ancestors.
And so... he drew his sword.
No one knew that in the past, no matter what formidable opponents Dugu Qingfeng faced, he had never drawn his sword.
The ancient sword at his back seemed like a mere ornament, just as Sound’s eyes were always closed.
What did it mean for Dugu Qingfeng to draw his sword?
Sound didn’t know either, but his face changed drastically, revealing a shocked expression.
The simple and unadorned sword struck at the Great Emperor’s Dharma. One slash descended, devastatingly powerful.
Everyone was shocked. Then, another sword strike followed. Its ancient power erupted suddenly, like lava spewing forth, densely filling the space between heaven and earth and suppressing the Dharma.
Everyone held their breath. What was he trying to do?
Even Chen Pingping was stunned for a moment, his mouth hanging open as he seemingly realized something.
Sure enough... with two strokes of his sword, Dugu Qingfeng broke the Dharma and suppressed it. Then he walked over nonchalantly, reached down with one hand, and actually grabbed the ancient scroll.
No! Fuck! Don’t come over here!
Chen Pingping’s eyes bulged.
Dugu Qingfeng, holding the ancient scroll, walked towards Chen Pingping.
Throughout the process, he remained calm and unflustered, still clutching the ancient sword.
"When did you enter the city?" Dugu Qingfeng asked.
"..." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Chen Pingping felt like spitting blood.
BANG!
Behind Dugu Qingfeng, a streak of golden Divine Brilliance shot out, moving very fast. Sound was making his move.
At this moment, in another direction, a black creature, fully three meters tall and covered in shaggy fur, possessed a pair of eerie and terrifying pupils. With a roar of rage, he charged in this direction. Then, with a leap, he clenched his fists and attacked.
Dugu Qingfeng frowned and slashed out with his ancient sword.
But the two were very powerful, striking simultaneously, far beyond what his Sword Dao could withstand.
In an instant, his Sword Dao shattered.
The ancient sword in his hand trembled. He lowered his eyelids, glanced at it, then tossed the ancient scroll to Chen Pingping and charged forward alone.
The two attackers exhibited great coordination. One attacked from the left, the other from the right. One manifested Dharma Heaven and Earth, appearing majestic and god-like. The other clenched his fists, striking with a force that seemed to swallow mountains and rivers. It was a stunning display, for they were geniuses from the Ancient City.
"Pingping, that genius from the Dugu Family seems to know you," Yue Wuxia said, her eyes wide.
"I have no idea." Chen Pingping was a bit dumbfounded. We definitely know each other, but I never expected this guy to just hand the ancient scroll to me. Damn! Bro, can’t you be a bit more reliable? Handing me the ancient scroll in front of everyone? Aren’t you basically painting a target on my back? Besides, it’s not like I couldn’t have taken the ancient scroll myself. Sigh...
Wiping cold sweat from his forehead, Chen Pingping asked, "Big Bro, that other guy, is he also a genius from the Ancient City?" Why does that guy feel so odd?
Yue Wuxia nodded. "Yes, a type of powerful being that can be called an Alien Race, innately possessing Divine Power. But... the Dugu Family geniuses are also very formidable and not to be underestimated. Moreover, he drew his sword. I heard my mother say that Sword Cultivators of the Dugu Family never draw their swords lightly."
Her expression was solemn as she gazed intently at the scene ahead.
"???"
Only Chen Pingping could not understand.
What does drawing a sword signify? An increase in strength? He watched for a while but didn’t notice anything special.
Just then, he suddenly sensed killing intention from behind. Startled, he quickly pulled Yue Wuxia away from their original spot.
A black Demon Flower emerged from the soil, rapidly blooming and spreading a black mist...
The Demon cultivator genius was making his move.
He had been hiding in the shadows for a long time. Seeing the ancient scroll fall into Chen Pingping’s hands, he knew his opportunity had arrived and unleashed his Demon Tao.
Unfortunately for him, Chen Pingping was highly vigilant.
Of course, it wasn’t just one Demon cultivator genius who wanted to snatch the ancient scroll; there were many, many other geniuses. For instance, Qin Meng, the Eldest Prince of the Ancient Country, Wen Qingshan, and Ask Demon of the Zhu Menting, to name a few...
Chen Pingping’s scalp tingled. "Big Bro, quickly use your trump card!"
"Pingping, give the ancient scroll to me first. Big Bro is strong and can protect the scroll..." Yue Wuxia said.
Fuck! This girl, even at a time like this, is still thinking about the ancient scroll. Fine...
Without hesitation, he threw the ancient scroll to Yue Wuxia in front of everyone.
Then... she turned and ran, leaving a dumbfounded Chen Pingping behind.
But she seemed to have forgotten something—why were these geniuses attacking?
They were not after Chen Pingping but after that ancient scroll.
Now that the scroll was no longer in Chen Pingping’s hands, all the attacks instantly rained down on Yue Wuxia like a storm.
Her breath caught, and she cried out, "Pingping, save me!"
Chen Pingping just shrugged, showing no intention of making a move.
Yue Wuxia hurriedly retreated to his side, grumbling and cursing, "Pingping, they have no Wu De! A whole group of them bullying a weak woman like me."
"Big Bro, why did you run?" Chen Pingping asked.
"Nonsense, why would Big Bro run?" Yue Wuxia retorted. "Big Bro just wanted to lead the powerful enemies away to save you. I just didn’t expect them to be so strong. Hey... Pingping, you don’t actually think Big Bro would abandon you after getting the ancient scroll, do you?"
"Wouldn’t you?" Chen Pingping asked skeptically.
"Definitely not!" Yue Wuxia said, her face flushing. "Big Bro isn’t that kind of person."
"Big Bro, hurry up and use your trump card!"
"I can’t!"
"Why not?"
"This Divine Weapon... it’s a bit strong."
"How strong?"
"Very strong."
"???" Chen Pingping frowned. "A Great Saint-level Weapon?"
"More than that."
"A Quasi-Emperor Weapon?"
"A bit higher than that."
What the fuck?! Chen Pingping stared at her in disbelief. Higher than a Quasi-Emperor Weapon? That would be an Emperor Weapon! What is this girl’s background?
She was hesitating. If she used the Emperor Weapon, her identity would undoubtedly be exposed, potentially leading to serious problems.
But now... the wave of murderous attacks descended upon them once more.
Yue Wuxia cursed inwardly. They have no Wu De!
She clenched her teeth and pulled out a white pearl. "Pingping, quick!"
Chen Pingping was stunned. "What for?"
"My power alone isn’t enough to activate this Divine Weapon. Let’s do it together," Yue Wuxia said, pressing one hand onto the pearl.
With her other hand, she pulled Chen Pingping closer.
Before Chen Pingping could react, the pearl suddenly pulsed with a powerful suction. His internal energy instantly began to pour out of him like a raging river.
「At that moment...」
The Purple Gold Emperor Son approached leisurely. Looking at Chen Pingping, who wasn’t far off, he sneered, "Chen Pingping, even if I can’t truly kill you while you’re on the Wind Cloud List, I... will still kill you."
