Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 542: The Emperor Weapon Awakens Again
"You can’t protect him," Sound spoke.
He still hadn’t opened his eyes, but no one dared underestimate him.
Dugu Qingfeng remained expressionless, without a word.
In many people’s eyes, publicly giving that ancient scroll to Chen Pingping was undoubtedly inviting war upon him.
But only a few knew that the proud family would not easily recognize someone.
Thus, he needed to test him.
If Chen Pingping was too weak, then he would personally take the Giant Que back.
If his strength was adequate, Dugu Qingfeng would spare no effort to protect him.
And now, the result would be seen shortly.
「Elsewhere...」
Qin Meng sneered continually as he strode forward. "Human Clan, hand over the ancient scroll."
It was over! Yue Wuxia’s eyes went wide, and she instinctively hid behind Chen Pingping.
Chen Pingping wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Don’t be afraid, big brother, take out your Divine Weapon."
Yue Wuxia: "..."
"Trust me," Chen Pingping said again. "Don’t hesitate. At this point, only your Divine Weapon can suppress all strong enemies and secure first place on the Wind Cloud List. Have you... forgotten?"
"Pingping, big brother hasn’t forgotten, but it’s not so easy to revive an Emperor Weapon, and you’re already exhausted," she whispered, a bit sheepishly.
"It doesn’t matter. For big brother’s cultivation, even if I exhaust everything, I have to give it my all," Chen Pingping said with a determined gaze.
"Pingping, you..." Yue Wuxia was moved.
"Don’t hesitate any longer! The son of the Demon Emperor, Qin Meng, is very powerful. If he makes the first move, we won’t stand a chance!" Chen Pingping urged.
He had received Daoyan’s legacy and controlled the Wind Cloud List. He was the sole God in this small world.
He could easily slay all strong enemies, but he didn’t want to do so.
He wanted to earn Yue Wuxia’s trust.
「At that moment, atop a high mountain dozens of miles away...」
A young genius, having watched for a long time, couldn’t help but ask, "Big brother, are you sure we can take them down?"
The "big brother" he referred to was Chen Shixian.
A group lay in wait for several hours, watching the battle, waiting for those peerless geniuses to be depleted before making their move to capture the top position on the Wind Cloud List.
Initially, the geniuses were exhilarated, feeling that Chen Shixian’s plan was good.
But as they watched, they felt something was amiss. Each of those peerless geniuses was stronger than the last; even the weakest among them was more than they could handle.
Securing first place on the Wind Cloud List seems unlikely!
Chen Shixian raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, "No hurry."
The others: "..."
The rankings within the Wind Cloud List were strange and didn’t simply depend on survival duration for a higher rank.
But it wasn’t just about combat strength, either.
Some powerful peerless geniuses, with heaven-reaching fighting capabilities, somehow got eliminated inexplicably, their names erased, unable to rank at all.
So, how did these rankings appear? It remained a mystery.
The only sure thing was that the person who defeated many strong competitors and survived until the end would be first on the Wind Cloud List... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Chen Shixian watched the battlefield below, her gaze never having left Chen Pingping and Yue Wuxia from the start.
She sensed the demonic power within Yue Wuxia. This girl is from the Demon Race, but why is she with Chen Pingping? And so intimate at that. Calling him Pingping all the time. Tch! Shameless.
Chen Shixian felt indignation.
「Outside the Wind Cloud List.」
Everyone watched the remaining names. Among them, one person drew much attention: Yue Wuxia of the Demon Race.
Because among them, most of the geniuses had been sent packing by this annoying girl, and about eighty to ninety percent of them hadn’t even conflicted with her.
It was truly an undeserved disaster!
Recalling their experiences within the Wind Cloud List, they clenched their teeth in anger, wishing they could finish Yue Wuxia off right then and there.
"The Emperor Son is still in," Emperor Tian breathed a sigh of relief in the shadows.
As long as the Emperor Son gained a ranking and an opportunity, perhaps he could break through to the Saint Realm. At that point, they would no longer fear Chen Pingping.
Lan Qingshui, Shisan, and others, however, were focusing on Chen Shixian because Zi Ji had said that she would be first on the Wind Cloud List.
They were very curious.
Only Ali looked at Yue Wuxia’s name, never speaking, and no one knew what she was thinking.
「 」
BANG!
Qin Meng was the first to strike. His five fingers slashed down like a sword, his aura majestic, and his killing intention burst forth, overwhelming everything in an instant.
He was strong.
If one were to add in some heritage and the bloodline of an Emperor Son, the battle power that could erupt would be on par with Dugu Qingfeng when he drew his sword.
Yue Wuxia exclaimed, "Pingping, save me!"
Although Qin Meng’s target was Chen Pingping, she had a feeling that Qin Meng was coming for her.
This bastard wants to take the opportunity to kill me. It’s truly despicable. To think that members of the same Demon Race would kill each other.
Chen Pingping shouted, "Big brother, don’t hesitate!"
"I can’t! Pingping, I’m scared..."
"Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
"Pingping!"
"Let’s do it!" Chen Pingping’s gaze was resolute.
At this moment, Yue Wuxia no longer hesitated, quickly taking out the Demon Core.
She pressed down with one hand.
At that moment, Chen Pingping was also reaching out, moving swiftly. Not only that, but he was also secretly mobilizing the power within the Wind Cloud List to revive this Emperor Weapon.
In an instant, Divine Brilliance exploded, and powerful demonic power radiated everywhere overwhelmingly.
Everyone was stunned.
They had seen Yue Wuxia’s Emperor Weapon before, but... why was the time it took to activate so brief this time?
Even Yue Wuxia was momentarily dumbfounded, incredulous.
But she quickly reacted; Qin Meng was attacking them, and there was no time to waste.
Yue Wuxia, holding the Demon Core, charged forward and cast a terrifying skill. With a PFFT, it instantly shattered Qin Meng’s assault.
The latter: "..."
HAHAHAHA!
Yue Wuxia, who had just been so timid, became arrogant upon witnessing this scene.
The Emperor Weapon was revived once again.
Her might as Yue Wuxia had returned.
Having shattered Qin Meng’s attack, she didn’t hold back, swiftly casting a second skill.
Because she was very clear: this bastard couldn’t be spared.
Even if she couldn’t get first place, she needed to kick him out.
Making this decision, she completely ignored the thought she had before: "Killing each other."
Right! Indeed! At this very moment, she was a gentle, lovely, understanding, and kind Yue Wuxia, whereas Qin Meng was a thorough bastard. They were not the same kind. He must be taken out.
Yue Wuxia chuckled, her hand holding the Demon Core, wrapped in Divine Brilliance, carrying a lethal killing intention as she lunged at Qin Meng.
Damn it... His face turned pale, and his scalp tingled.
Angry as he was, faced with an Emperor Weapon, he had to evade its edge, thinking to wait until the weapon was spent to cut down Yue Wuxia with a lightning-fast attack.
Alas, the force sustaining the revival of the Emperor Weapon wasn’t coming from Chen Pingping or Yue Wuxia, but from the Wind Cloud List.
His plan was doomed to fail.
In just two short minutes, Yue Wuxia struck seven or eight times, pressing the once unassailable Qin Meng firmly beneath her feet.
She laughed triumphantly, "Qin Meng, you were so arrogant, weren’t you? Come on! Hit me! Can’t do it, can you? HAHAHAHA! I’ll teach you to be arrogant! I’ll teach you to show off! I’ll teach you to act like you’re hot stuff just because your dad’s the Demon Emperor, strutting around like the biggest bully on the block all day, PAH! This maiden, wielding an Emperor Weapon, will definitely cut you down. You have no chance left."
"Be a good person in your next life!"
"Uh... be like this maiden: gentle, kind, cute, and also an adorable little Fairy..."
"Big brother!" Chen Pingping, behind her, couldn’t help but speak up. "We can’t truly kill him inside the Wind Cloud List!"
"Huh?" Yue Wuxia’s smile froze.
