Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 544: I’ll Wait for You in the Ancient City
She remembered. Chen Pingping possessed the Clone Skill.
However, this guy could actually revive an Emperor Weapon while simultaneously casting his Clone Skill.
Chen Shixian clicked her tongue in amazement, sizing him up before speaking in a low, enigmatic tone, "That little Demon Race girl isn’t bad looking at all!"
Chen Pingping: "..."
"How old is she?" Chen Shixian asked again. "She even has an Emperor Weapon. Looks like she’s from a prominent family. She’d be a good match for you."
"..."
"Lucky you. How far have things progressed?" Chen Shixian smiled.
"You’re overthinking it. We’re just friends," Chen Pingping stated indifferently.
"What kind of friends?"
"Just friends!" Chen Pingping rolled his eyes. "Can’t you speak properly?"
"’I can...’" Chen Shixian pursed her lips, averted her gaze, and then said, "To think you’d sacrifice yourself to revive an Emperor Weapon for a little Demon Race girl. How noble of you."
"I did it for you too," Chen Pingping glared at her.
HEH!
Chen Shixian smiled without saying a word.
Although she knew Chen Pingping’s ultimate plan, his intimate behavior with Yue Wuxia, and Yue Wuxia calling him ’Pingping’ so casually, was still hard for her to accept. Of course, she, Chen Shixian, was also friends with Chen Pingping and couldn’t meddle in these matters.
「On this side...」
Zhu Menting attacked several times, unleashing his full power and displaying terrifying combat strength, yet he was still no match for Yue Wuxia wielding the Emperor Weapon.
He spat blood. He could never have imagined that someone would bring an Emperor Weapon into the Wind Cloud List’s battlefield. What was even more unexpected was how that Emperor Weapon could sustain its power for so long. He was certain that neither Chen Pingping nor Yue Wuxia had reached the Saint Realm. Reviving an Emperor Weapon should have been incredibly difficult, practically impossible for them.
"Do you submit or not?" Yue Wuxia sneered.
"Put down the Emperor Weapon if you dare!" Zhu Menting gritted his teeth.
"I won’t. What can you do about it?" Yue Wuxia laughed triumphantly. "Alright, in the spirit of helping others, this young lady will send you out. It’s too dangerous here. No need to thank me afterward."
Her words left Zhu Menting’s face livid, his eyes glaring intently at her.
There was nothing he could do; he truly couldn’t defeat her. He could only vent his anger through his expression.
"Little girl, I’ll remember you," Zhu Menting said bitterly.
"Goodbye!" Her smile was radiant, completely unfazed by Zhu Menting’s threat. She then turned her gaze towards the Ancient Country’s First Prince.
She felt that among this group, no one was easy to provoke. Only this First Prince of the Ancient Country, who appeared dignified and brimming with Divine Might on the surface, seemed to be all show and no substance.
COUGH, COUGH... That was just her own baseless speculation.
Because she had to deal with these people, and moreover... she wasn’t sure how much longer the Emperor Weapon could last, or how much longer Chen Pingping could hold on. It was time to risk it all!
Yue Wuxia stared intently at the First Prince. "I have no intention of making an enemy of you, but... this is the Wind Cloud List."
"So what?" The Ancient Country’s First Prince’s face was grim as he looked at her coldly. "Do you think this Prince is easy to bully?"
"..."
"The Wind Cloud List is located in the Ancient Country. If you leave this place, this Prince will undoubtedly kill you." His tone was chilling.
Yue Wuxia’s breath caught in her throat.
From the side, Chen Pingping shouted, "Big Brother, I really can’t hold on much longer! If you don’t make a move now, we’re all going to die!"
He was frustrated, unable to understand why the girl was hesitating. Reviving the Emperor Weapon consumed a massive amount of power every moment. Her hesitation now was undoubtedly draining him dry.
Yue Wuxia glanced at him; she naturally understood this. The next moment, she gripped the Emperor Weapon and charged at the Ancient Country’s First Prince.
The First Prince was thrown into disarray, practically fuming from his seven orifices.
No matter how unwilling he was, he couldn’t face such a powerful Emperor Weapon.
But just before he was eliminated, his eyes, filled with dense killing intention, fixed on Yue Wuxia, sending a shiver down her spine.
"Now it’s your turn," Yue Wuxia’s gaze swept over the remaining contestants: Sound, the Alien Race genius, the delicate-looking girl, Cang Yun, and the Purple Gold Emperor Son.
OH, OH, OH!
And Dugu Qingfeng too.
Cang Yun and the Purple Gold Emperor Son were decisive, both choosing to withdraw automatically.
The scene suddenly quieted. Yue Wuxia stood, Emperor Weapon in hand, watching the few individuals left.
ROAR!
The Alien Race genius let out a furious roar. The violent power within his body churned tumultuously, and a demonic light glinted in his eyes, as if manifesting from the depths of hell itself. A single glance seemed capable of devouring one’s soul.
Yue Wuxia’s heart pounded with fear.
「On the other side...」
Sound stood as still as a mountain, perpetually calm. Behind him, a magnificent, resplendent palace shimmered brilliantly, emitting a sacred and divine light that set him off like a God from the Nine Heavens.
This person was also off-limits. Yue Wuxia knew that if she used the Emperor Weapon to kill him now, she would definitely not escape unscathed once she left the Wind Cloud List. And Dugu Qingfeng had a connection with Chen Pingping, so she couldn’t act recklessly towards him either. That left two people: the delicate-looking girl and Cang Yun. However, both of them exuded a strange, ordinary stillness. Though they stood there, flesh and blood, she couldn’t sense their life force. It was truly bizarre. Her mother had once said that cultivators who achieved a state of returning to true simplicity often concealed their true depths. She really wanted to say to Chen Pingping, "How about we just call it quits?"
But with the situation having progressed this far, how could Chen Pingping simply give up?
If Yue Wuxia didn’t dare to make a move, then...
Chen Pingping channeled the Power of Heaven and Earth, forming a pair of invisible giant hands that suddenly grabbed Yue Wuxia and pushed her forward.
At that moment, the Great Tao, Dharma Principles, Divine Power, and the Power of Heaven and Earth all converged, enveloping Yue Wuxia.
A deep voice reached her ears: "Do not hesitate."
This? She was stunned. Several types of power entered her body, continuously strengthening her. Her cultivation realm rose, and her combat power surged.
Yue Wuxia’s eyes widened. No longer hesitating, she grasped the Emperor Weapon and charged towards the remaining few.
The delicate-looking girl and Cang Yun paused for a moment, then both retreated and automatically withdrew.
Nearby, the Purple Gold Emperor Son also chose to withdraw, but just before leaving, his resentful gaze lingered stubbornly on Chen Pingping.
HAHAHA!
Yue Wuxia’s long dress swayed, her hair danced in the wind. Unleashing the power of her Demon Core to its fullest, she radiated a brilliant light, resembling a dust-untainted Fairy descended to the mortal realm.
She felt the immense power coursing through her body. It was incredibly strong. It had to be a Great Emperor helping her. Yes, that was it. A Great Emperor had taken a liking to her, believing she was worthy of taking first place on the Wind Cloud List. Yue Wuxia was instantly thrilled. If she could secure first place, obtain the numerous legacies and the Heaven Tao Stone, returning to Monster Emperor City with such achievements would give her bragging rights for years.
Little did she know that Chen Pingping was behind it all. He was manipulating the Wind Cloud List, enhancing Yue Wuxia’s combat power, and giving her the courage to face formidable enemies.
With such a boost, she was eager to confront the Alien Race genius and Sound. There was nothing more to be said. Receiving such recognition for the first time, Yue Wuxia was brimming with confidence, not to mention she still held a reactivated Emperor Weapon.
She snorted coldly and charged at the two.
The Alien Race genius and Sound were indeed powerful, truly deserving of their reputation as young geniuses from the Ancient City. Even though Yue Wuxia was bolstered by the Wind Cloud List and wielded an Emperor Weapon, they still managed to block several of her attacks. Only after her fifth assault did they reluctantly leave the Wind Cloud List.
PHEW!
Yue Wuxia exhaled a breath of turbid air she had held in for a long time, and then smiled. She looked at Chen Pingping, her smile radiant. "Pingping, I did it."
Yes! She had done it.
Chen Pingping was very pleased. "Big Brother, you’re amazing."
"What now?" she asked.
In her line of sight, besides Chen Pingping, only Dugu Qingfeng remained.
And this guy was Chen Pingping’s friend. She was in a difficult position.
Dugu Qingfeng remained very calm. He glanced at Chen Pingping and said, "I’ll be waiting for you in the Ancient City."
