Complete Defeat (1)
"It's alright, Second Sister. Don't let his seemingly useless appearance fool you. He's just too lazy to fight. If he really did, we might not be able to beat him," Ye Lanyu said.
"Ye Lang, stop playing around and be serious!" Ye Zhiqin's instructions to Ye Lang were that simple.
"Okay, you guys are so annoying. Everyone who has nothing to do, go back to your seats. I have to start the match. By the way, how many of you are planning to go up?" Ye Lang asked Edward while shooing away the "irrelevant people".
"... Only me. If I lose this match, we'll concede!"
"Oh, is that so? Then it's simple! Everyone go up. Fatty, you get ready and go up too. You know my habits..." Ye Lang said.
"I know! I'm all packed up already. I don't want to be dragged into this mess." Zhen Xiaoyan replied. It turned out that when she heard Ye Lang mention the competition, she immediately got ready to go up.
Zhen Xiaoyan knows Ye Lang's alchemy best; she's been harmed by him since childhood, and innocent people have been implicated as well!
"Brother, don't go too far! Lord Fengxing, you'd better have someone strengthen the Defense Array here, preferably ones that can withstand that forbidden magic." Ye Lanyu looked as if she were facing a formidable enemy.
"..." Feng Xing was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"This is not an exaggeration at all; you'll understand when the time comes!" the Seventh Princess said.
"Okay, I'll go prepare!" Feng Xing nodded.
"??" Fei's eyes were filled with confusion. What was going on?
"Xiao Fei, come on, let's chat." Ye Lanyu also called Fei, just like Ye Lang. After fighting with Fei once, she felt that the distance between the two of them had become much closer. Someone once said that one way to become best friends is to fight.
The saying goes, "No fight, no friendship." After a fight, you'll understand each other's personalities, which are impossible to hide!
From Fei's fighting style, you can tell she's a straightforward person, and if it weren't for this fight, no one would have guessed she was so strong.
Normally, although she would shout things, she never used force.
"Okay, let's have another match later. It's been a lot of fun fighting you guys!" Fei nodded and said directly.
"If you're with them, you'll definitely have a chance to fight..." Zhen Xiaoyan, Ye Zhiqin, and the others thought to themselves.
As soon as everyone left, a problem immediately arose.
"What do you mean by 'Xiao Rui'?" Edward pointed at Xiao Rui, who was standing next to Ye Lang and hadn't left.
"It doesn't mean anything, what does it mean?" Ye Lang replied casually, not taking it seriously.
"Do you want her to fight?"
"If necessary, I will consider it..." Ye Lang remained as casual as ever. Xiao Rui was Ye Lang's strongest Alchemy Weapon, and letting her fight was also a manifestation of his strength, which was perfectly reasonable.
However, not many people know this, and now everyone thinks he's still relying on women!
"Brother, let Xiao Rui protect us. We don't need Xiao Rui to deal with him! They don't know who Xiao Rui is to you..." Ye Lanyu made Xiao Rui leave the scene so that her brother would be more manly and the other party would be more convinced.
"Oh!" Ye Lang responded, and Xiao Rui, under his command, came to Ye Lanyu's side to protect them.
"Now we can begin!" Ye Lang said to Edward.
"We can begin!" Edward brandished his sword, the wind whistling around him.
"Come on!" Ye Lang struck a very manly pose toward Edward, like Bruce Lee in a fighting stance—manly enough, right?
"..., take out your weapon!" Edward was silent for a moment, then spoke again.
How could he possibly attack Ye Lang who was unarmed? He seemed to have forgotten that he had just attacked. In any case, he wanted Ye Lang to take out his weapon, the Silver Dual Pistols he had used in the martial arts contest for marriage.
"Oh..." Ye Lang replied. Since they wanted him to take out his weapon, he would.
"..."
When Edward saw Ye Lang take out his weapon, he fell silent. Like him, everyone present fell silent, except for Ye Lanyu and the others, who had seen Ye Lang's Alchemy Weapon before.
"What is this?" Edward asked immediately.
Instead of the Silver Dual Pistols he had used before, Ye Lang pulled out an Alchemy Cannon...
"Weapons, didn't you want them just now?" Ye Lang replied.
"But you didn't use this last time!!" Edward said.
"What did I use last time? I forgot, aren't they all the same?" Ye Lang didn't retract the Alchemy Cannon, and was about to blast Edward with it.
"It's different! Use the one from last time! Last time you used the silver one, the one you could hold in your hand, much smaller than this one!!" Edward insisted on this, whether purely to recreate the original situation or out of fear that Ye Lang would use the Alchemy Cannon.
"You're such a nuisance!" Ye Lang put away the cannon and then took out the Silver Dual Pistols that had only been used once from his ring.
"What is this again?" The audience couldn't understand Ye Lang's Alchemy Cannon, and now there were two more confusing pistols. They were completely baffled.
Ye Lang brandished his twin pistols and said, "Is this alright?"
"It's okay..." When Edward nodded and said it was okay, he noticed that Ye Lang had already fired the gun.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Ye Lang activated both guns in quick succession, and two small energy bullets arrived in front of Edward in an instant. Fortunately, Edward was no ordinary person and managed to dodge them.
The energy blast struck the Alchemy Array behind it, which was operating at its maximum capacity. The Alchemy Array rippled a few times before disappearing!
"Ah..." After Ye Lang fired the gun, the unsuspecting audience now realized that this Alchemy Weapon was releasing magical energy, and its power seemed quite considerable.
This Alchemy Weapon is so convenient! Even an ordinary person can have the strength to defeat a master, as long as they seize the opportunity.
At this moment, Ye Lang did not stop, and continued to fire his gun...
"Bang bang..."
Ye Lang was getting more and more into firing his gun, while Edward was in great pain, dodging everywhere. He tried to use his Battle Qi to defend himself, but he found that his Battle Qi would be pierced through.
This is natural. It's not that Ye Lang's dual pistols are stronger than his Battle Qi. The reason is simple: Edward's battle Battle Qi covers a large area, while Ye Lang's is concentrated at a single point. That's the key.
Fortunately, Edward is a wind-type martial artist. Generally speaking, wind-type martial artists are the fastest because of the acceleration provided by the wind.
