The Green Lion: The Opportunity Has Finally Arrived

The sudden request from Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal left Yaochi somewhat bewildered.

What is this thing?

The immortals of the Interception Sect who were aware of the situation already knew what Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal was planning, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful that they had been a step too late.

Yaochi paused for a moment, then straightened her expression and asked in a dignified voice, "This matter is of great importance and not child's play. Are you truly confident of victory?"

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal nodded emphatically and said, "If I didn't have absolute certainty of victory, how could I dare to volunteer?"

"In that case, you may go."

Yaochi's eyes flashed, and seeing that no one objected, she immediately agreed.

The immortals of the Chan Sect hesitated, feeling that they had been somewhat hasty, but Yaochi was in charge of the Heavenly Court, and they were only assisting her, they naturally couldn't say much.

Having received permission, the Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal cupped his hands in greeting and turned to leave with a triumphant air.

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal couldn't wait any longer and immediately flew onto the altar. Facing the Human Race alone, he was not flustered at all. On the contrary, he was full of vigor and his demeanor was extremely high.

"This humble Daoist represents the Heavenly Court in this battle, challenging all fellow Daoists of the Human Race."

He spoke with a smile, surprisingly polite and not at all arrogant.

Everyone was surprised, not expecting the other side to send out such a thing. Although Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal's cultivation was decent, already at the late stage of Daluo Golden Immortal.

But representing the team in a match would seem Tai Yi.

It's practically free.

"Heh, you rabbit spirit, it's not that I look down on you, but go back and find someone else, lest people say we won unfairly, giving them something to talk about, and ultimately becoming your excuse."

Manshan Clan laughed loudly, his face full of disdain. He could easily crush an opponent of this caliber with one hand.

Upon hearing this, Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal remained calm and sneered, "Are you all afraid?"

"Bullshit! Why would your grandfathers be afraid of you?" Manshan Clan shouted.

"Since that's the case, dare you let me choose an opponent from among you?" Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal finally revealed his true colors, his gaze sweeping over everyone with extreme arrogance.

"I see that you are all talented individuals; surely you wouldn't refuse?"

He used reverse psychology, speaking while looking down his nose at people.

"I refuse, why should I agree to your request?" Manshan Clan rejected the idea without even thinking, leaving Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal speechless and his smile frozen on his face.

This Tai Yi he expected. Why wasn't the brute acting recklessly anymore?

"Hmph! You can't even agree to this small request, you're not worthy of my help. Farewell."

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal out a cold shout and turned to leave, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Etc."

Just then, Baize suddenly spoke, gently waving his feather fan, exuding elegance and grace.

"Gentlemen, since they have come to challenge us, wouldn't it make our Human Race appear petty if we didn't accept the challenge?"

"I think we have to accept this first battle no matter what, so let's just do as he says and let him choose an opponent."

"The fellow cultivators present here possess remarkable cultivation and extraordinary Tongtian; I believe they will not disappoint us."

With a serious expression, he offered his advice to the Manshan Clan and others in a humble yet assertive manner.

The Manshan Clan and others were familiar with Baize's identity, knowing that he was Spirit of Auspiciousness with very good omens.

"Well, you're right. It's okay to lose, but we can't lose our composure. Let's settle it like this."

The powerful figures exchanged glances and nodded slightly. Manshan Clan immediately spoke up and agreed.

The process was quick, with almost no hesitation, and very decisive.

This surprised Baize, who hadn't expected his opinion to be adopted so easily, leaving him feeling flattered.

They never received this kind of treatment when they were with the demon race.

The Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal, had a slight smile on her lips.

"These idiots fell for it..."

Then he turned around, his face still showing arrogance.

"I admire your acceptance of the challenge. If you lose, I hope you will accept it humbly. Let me make this clear beforehand, so don't try to renege later."

"Hmph! You think we're like you? That's exactly what Laozi wanted to say too. If you lose, you'd better get out of here obediently." Manshan Clan roared, wishing he could personally tear that smug face apart.

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal shrugged and smiled slightly, saying, "It's a deal."

He then pointed and said, "I want to challenge this fellow Daoist."

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and their expressions immediately turned strange. The perceptive powerful beings naturally saw through everything.

These two people were none other than the Green Lion and the White Elephant, and the Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal was referring to was the Green Lion.

It is common knowledge that the Green Lion and the White Elephant are disciples of the Interception Sect; it is no secret.

The fact that Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal, Jie Sect Disciple, came to challenge the Green Lion already made his intentions quite clear.

The Green Lion and the White Elephant exchanged a strange glance, then smiles gradually spread across their faces.

Their chance has finally come!

"I'm afraid that's not appropriate. Perhaps I should take action!" Immortal Lord Mengzhang couldn't help but say, his expression somewhat grim.

This is clearly pre-arranged. When the fight breaks out, even if the Green Lion can defeat the Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal, he will hold back.

"What a shameless Interception Sect! So that's what he was planning!" the powerful figure, realizing the truth belatedly, cursed angrily.

"Change the player! We must change the player!"

The crowd shouted in unison.

"Enough! Since you've already agreed, how can you easily go back on your word? This matter is settled then," Cangwu said loudly, stopping the crowd's discussion.

"That's right, our Human Race keeps its word, unlike those shameless scoundrels on the other side who only know how to cheat and shirk responsibility."

"Manshan Clan shouted, his face full of disdain, then he looked at the Green Lion, "I'll have to trouble you to fight, fellow Daoist!"

The Green Lion cupped his hands in greeting and strode out, his fluffy fur billowing in the wind, looking incredibly dashing, much like Bu Jingyun riding a whirlwind.

"Please!"

The Green Lion raised its hand in a gesture and strode to the center of the altar.

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal chuckled inwardly, then moved to land opposite the Green Lion. He remained serious and expressionless, subtly giving the Green Lion meaningful glances.

It's as if it's saying: You know what to do now, right?

The Green Lion raised an eyebrow imperceptibly and returned a knowing look.

Both sides understood each other implicitly.

Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal smiled with satisfaction. The code had been given, and everything was settled.

Then, straightening his expression, he shouted sternly, "I'm about to make my move! Take this!"

A powerful surge of magical energy erupted as he raised his hand and struck out with a massive palm print, which crashed down with tremendous force.

"Good! Take this punch!"

The Green Lion roared, its mane flying wildly. This roar startled even the Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal opposite it, sending a shiver down its spine.

A cyan fist strike blasted out, shattering all obstacles and unleashing terrifying magical power.

With just one punch, Long-Eared Fixed-Light Immortal was sent flying backward.
