"I'm divorcing you!"

As soon as the words fell, a hint of teasing flashed through Xiao Yu's eyes.

On the Dou Qi Continent, if a man divorced a woman, there might still be some justification. But if a woman divorced a man, he would truly have nowhere to hide his shame.

Especially for a genius like Mo Yu, once word got out that he had been divorced by a woman, he would undoubtedly be scorned by everyone.

At this thought, Mo Yu's brows furrowed.

Although he did not care about such empty reputations, being divorced by a woman was still an unbearable humiliation.

"Hehe, if Cousin Xiao Yu is confident in her strength, then let's have a match." Mo Yu gazed at the confident woman in front of him and spoke calmly.

She thought that the strength of a Three Star Dou Practitioner was enough to defeat him, but she was being far too naive.

Seeing Mo Yu's Calm and Composed appearance, a trace of doubt also flashed through Xiao Yu's beautiful eyes.

Although she admitted deep down that Mo Yu's talent was formidable, and that increasing his strength so much within a year was not something an ordinary person could accomplish, talent was not the same as combat power.

For a One Star Dou Practitioner to dream of defeating a Three Star Dou Practitioner—especially one like her, who had received an excellent Academy education—the possibility was practically nonexistent.

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for showing no mercy. I hope you won't regret it after you lose!" Xiao Yu said coldly.

Although she did not understand where Mo Yu's confidence came from, Xiao Yu firmly believed in her own strength. She would not lose to a newly advanced One Star Dou Practitioner!

After saying this, she stepped forward with her left foot. Her graceful body traced an alluring curve, and her sexy right leg suddenly carried a faint sound of breaking air as pale cyan Dou Qi fiercely swept toward Mo Yu.

"Yellow Tier Advanced Dou Technique, Whirlwind Flowing Shadow Leg!"

Seeing that the woman had attacked without warning, Mo Yu had not expected it. However, he did not panic. He hurriedly retreated several steps, narrowly dodging the Long Legs that came with a sinister gust of wind.

"Hmph. No matter how talented you are, you're still only a One Star Dou Practitioner. Admit defeat." Looking at Mo Yu, who kept dodging, Xiao Yu gave a Cold Smile. Her slender legs danced like a violent storm, and with each fierce kick, they stirred up waves of pale cyan wind that sent the dead leaves on the ground flying.

The strength of a Three Star Dou Practitioner was indeed the strongest enemy Mo Yu had encountered since his rebirth. Under such fierce attacks, he was momentarily unable to find any opening to counterattack and could only evade.

However, after only a moment, Mo Yu steadied his position.

"Nine Flashes of the Roaming DragonSwift Flash!"

Under Xiao Yu's violent leg techniques, Mo Yu was like a nimble sea dragon swimming through the depths. Each time, he accurately dodged and neutralized her fatal attacks.

Facing the sharp assault of Xiao Yu's legs, Mo Yu's handsome face remained extremely calm. His eyes narrowed slightly, as though he did not take it to heart.

"What an exquisite Movement Dou Technique!" Seeing Mo Yu dodge so calmly, surprise also appeared in Xiao Yu's eyes. He had only just advanced to the rank of One Star Dou Practitioner, yet he could already master such a Movement Dou Technique. It seemed the youth's reputation as a genius was not undeserved.

Moreover, this Movement Dou Technique was clearly not from his clan. Evidently, the youth had secrets of his own.

"Hehe, Cousin Xiao Yu, if this is the extent of your strength, I'm afraid your chances of defeating me aren't very high." Mo Yu spoke teasingly while dodging.

Xiao Yu's leg-based Dou Technique was not ordinary. Every move was infused with awe-inspiring Dou Qi, but Mo Yu had perfectly evaded every one of them.

If this continued, Xiao Yu would probably lose from exhausting her Dou Qi before she could even hit Mo Yu.

As a student of Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Yu naturally realized this as well. Her pretty face grew slightly more solemn.

As an Academy disciple who was a Three Star Dou Practitioner, she had originally thought she would crush Mo Yu with overwhelming force. She had not expected him to reach his current reputation with such meager strength. He was clearly no simple opponent.

"Your strength is decent, but I'm going to get serious now." Xiao Yu's expression turned solemn.

As her voice fell, powerful cyan Dou Qi erupted from her body.

"Profound Tier Low-Grade Dou Technique, Flowing Wind Violet Shadow Palm!"

With a Sound of Drinking, a sharp pale cyan burst of Dou Qi rose from Xiao Yu's jade-like hand and let out a low hum in midair. It then struck toward Mo Yu's shoulder. Judging from its momentum, if it hit, Mo Yu's arm would surely suffer severe damage. Clearly, Xiao Yu was no longer holding back.

Flowing Wind Violet Shadow Palm was a Profound Tier Low-Grade Dou Technique with considerable power. Only those above the rank of Dou Zhe could cultivate it. It was not a clan Dou Technique, but rather a high-level Dou Technique Xiao Yu had learned at Jia Nan Academy.

Narrowing his eyes slightly as he sensed that sharp force, Mo Yu's expression also grew somewhat solemn. He slowly exhaled, and the circulation route of the Dou Qi Inside Body abruptly changed.

At the Same Time, all the Lightning Runes on his right arm lit up. In an instant, thirteen of them shone brightly.

"Thunder Adamant Body!"

As the Sound of Drinking in his heart fell, violent Thunder Power burst from Mo Yu's body.

"Bang!"

The air rippled slightly. An invisible force of Thunder Power slammed into Xiao Yu's body as she shot forward, and the enormous Thunder Power immediately left her face deathly pale.

"Pfft."

The pale cyan palm-wind Dou Qi collided with the Silver White Thunder Dou Qi. In the end, the Thunder Power gained the upper hand. After a brief stalemate, Xiao Yu was directly shaken back and defeated by that force.

"What kind of Dou Technique is this? It's so powerful!"

The instant she was defeated, this thought surged into Xiao Yu's mind.

A mere One Star Dou Practitioner had not only mastered an extraordinary Movement Dou Technique but also possessed such a powerful Dou Technique. Could this Mo Yu truly be a Monster!?

"Not good!"

Before Xiao Yu could think it through, a sense of danger suddenly surged into her heart. A feeling of emptiness rose from behind her body.

It turned out that in the instant she was forced back, she had already retreated to the edge of a cliff.

At the moment she had lost focus, the cliff beneath her feet had begun to sway precariously under the impact of the two forces of Dou Qi.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, fear instantly drained the color from Xiao Yu's lovely face.

The Dou Qi Continent did have a saying: If you ever fall off a cliff and land in a cave, don't panic. Take two steps forward, and perhaps you will become a Strong Person!

This saying was not entirely false. Throughout the Dou Qi Continent's nearly thousand-year history, there had been no shortage of stories about people becoming Strong Person through fortuitous encounters.

The consequences of this tale were that countless dreamers waited by cliffs every day, preparing to jump off in search of peerless Cultivation Method. Of course, most of them returned with broken arms and legs.

Xiao Yu did not believe she would be so lucky as to fall off a cliff and obtain the inheritance of a peerless Strong Person. She was far more likely to return crippled—or even lose her life!

Thinking this, the Eldest Young Lady, who had always lived in comfort and been pampered by her elders, began to feel fear from the bottom of her heart.

However, most of her body was suspended in midair, and the Dou Qi Inside Body had also become disordered from the heavy blow she had just suffered. Faced with this situation, she was clearly powerless to do anything.

Just as Xiao Yu was about to close her eyes and resign herself to fate, a sudden "whoosh" sounded beside her ear. In the Next Moment, a black shadow appeared behind her like a ghost.

Before Xiao Yu could react, a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around her and lifted her up. Suddenly held in a "princess carry," she felt the firm though not broad shoulder behind her. Rather than panic, Xiao Yu felt an unprecedented sense of security.

"Boom!"

At the instant they fell past the steep cliff, the black shadow held the Woman in his arms and lightly touched down on a broken stone with his toes. As if borrowing its force, he leaped gently upward. Each time his foot landed on a broken stone, he sprang up another step. After five or six such steps, the black shadow stood safely on solid ground with the Woman in his arms.

After landing safely, the black shadow slowly set the Woman in his arms down.

Feeling the strong arms suddenly disappear, Xiao Yu inexplicably felt as if she had lost something.

Moonlight Pour Down, illuminating the black shadow and revealing a handsome face as beautiful as a painting.

Seeing that face, the panic in Xiao Yu's heart slowly faded, and a trace of stirring emotion gradually took root within her.

A cold wind swept across her sexy Long Legs. The Young Girl slowly came back to herself, a conflicted look flashing across her beautiful face as she gazed at the Youth in front of her.

"That instantaneous movement just now—and you actually have such a Movement Dou Technique as well. Mo Yu, I lost..."
