" Spirit Maiden Hua, I've finally found you!"
Gu Langyun arrived on his sword and landed in front of Hua Youyue. Suddenly, a strong killing intent burst forth from the long sword in his hand, violent and fierce. As it fell into Gu Langyun's hand, dragon roars resounded, and the sword trembled slightly, pointing directly at Hua Youyue.
"Make your move!"
Gu Langyun's voice was hoarse, like a demon from the Nine Netherworlds, his eyes devoid of emotion as he stared at Hua Youyue and said:
"On the Spirit Road, I suffered a crushing defeat at your hands, enduring endless humiliation. Back then, I said that one day I would make you lie beneath my sword. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and this battle has finally arrived. Can you feel the excitement in my heart and my thirst for blood?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions and took a step back in unison.
The boy was simply insane, wanting to kill right away. And everyone could clearly sense from his fanatical expression that he was a madman, a madman who craved killing and bloodshed.
Most of the cultivators gasped, their eyes filled with bewilderment. When did Ten Thousand Flowers Island, which was originally as calm as a still lake, become so turbulent? And without them even noticing, so many young prodigies had arrived.
Ye Zhiming alone is astonishing enough, and Bai Xuan is no ordinary person either. Now, an even more monstrous, almost insane young man has appeared. Where did these people come from?
Most people suddenly realized something: these people are probably all related to the Spirit Road.
The words of the black-clad youth proved this point; he had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Tower Master Hua on the Spirit Road and had come seeking revenge.
But... how is that possible?
Was Hua Youyue really that powerful back then?
Otherwise, how could she have offended such a powerful young man?
At the same time, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines. Was the legendary Spirit Road really so terrifying that even such a powerful young man would face a near-death experience if he entered it?
Hua Youyue is currently only at the Nascent Soul Realm stage; how could she possibly fight against a young man at the Spirit Wandering Realm?
For a moment, everyone felt a sense of unreality.
It turns out that the already exceptionally talented Tower Master Hua has an even more extraordinary past, making her a peerless figure on the Spirit Road?
Seeing the cold expression on the face of the man in black, staring at Hua Youyue like a venomous snake ready to devour her, everyone's hearts were filled with turmoil.
At this moment, how could Hua Youyue face such a powerful young man? Was the adored Tower Master Hua, whom countless people revered, really going to die here?
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Bai Xuan suddenly snorted coldly and was about to step forward.
Seeing this, everyone present was shocked. Could it be that the successor of Heavenly Profound Grotto-Heaven was going to stand up for Hua Youyue?
However, judging from the fluctuations in Bai Xuan's aura, he probably wasn't strong enough to defeat the young man in front of him.
At that moment, something unexpected happened. Ye Zhiming, the successor of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness and a disciple of the Eastern Wilderness Sect, suddenly placed his hand on Bai Xuan's shoulder, sneered, and said, " Bai Xuan, you should just stay behind us like you did back then. This battle has no chance of you getting involved!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions and stared at Ye Zhiming in disbelief.
Ye Zhiming actually wanted to stand up for Hua Youyue, facing such a terrifying and unpredictable young man.
Both being at the Spirit Wandering Realm and emerging from the Spirit Road at the same time, one is the successor of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, and the other is a mysterious youth exuding endless killing intent. In their battle, who will emerge victorious?
Upon hearing Ye Zhiming's words, Bai Xuan's expression hardened. He gave Ye Zhiming a deep look, took a deep breath, and said, " Ye Zhiming, Gu Langyun is not what he used to be. Don't be reckless!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiming burst into laughter, his long sword gleaming in the sky, his entire being as free and unrestrained as a leaf blown by the wind, leaving everyone astonished.
"Back then, Spirit Maiden Hua stood alone with her sword, her pride unwavering, blocking our way. How could we forget that heroic figure? If it weren't for this cowardly and selfish villain before us, how could Spirit Maiden Hua have suffered such a serious injury to her Spirit Root? And now he still has the nerve to appear before us? This time, it's my turn, Ye Zhiming. You only need to stand behind me!"
After speaking, Ye Zhiming suddenly unleashed a terrifying wave of energy. His True Essence surged and churned, forming a majestic mountain behind him. He was unrestrained yet ethereal, exuding an air of endless composure. He stood alone before everyone, sword in hand, with unyielding pride, facing Gu Langyun alone.
Gu Langyun was taken aback upon seeing this, then suddenly burst into laughter, pointing his sword at Ye Zhiming and saying, " Ye Zhiming, you didn't die on the Spirit Road back then, and even fortuitous opportunity Dao Severing your Dao by chance. This is your great fortune. Now, it's only natural that you'd risk your life for Spirit Maiden Hua. If you could defeat me, you would naturally be able to advance further in your Dao Rhyme power and become the one among us most likely to comprehend the Dao Intent. However... you are not worthy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a devastating killing intent suddenly erupted from Gu Langyun's body. As it rose into the sky, dark clouds churned and surged, forming a huge, pitch-black phantom behind him that resembled the Grim Reaper.
Gu Langyun laughed heartily, looking at Hua Youyue with a mocking expression, and said, " Spirit Maiden Hua, have you ever imagined that one day, with your pride, you would actually be standing behind others, only able to watch them fight for you?"
Hua Youyue's expression changed, and she said softly, "Fate is predetermined. These are all the results of causes and conditions. Who can control their own life under the Heavenly Dao?"
At this point, Hua Youyue shuddered. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Yang Zhen, and of Yang Zhen's cynical yet clever, wise yet foolish and cheeky appearance. He couldn't help but glance at the vast and magnificent East Sea.
Gu Langyun took a deep breath, stared at Hua Youyue with a playful expression, and said, "At this point, are you still waiting for that brat Yang Zhen to show up?"
Everyone was startled, looking at Gu Langyun with suspicion and uncertainty, wondering what he was trying to say.
Everyone, including Bai Xuan and Ye Zhiming, looked at Gu Langyun with surprise, not understanding why he would bring up Yang Zhen at this time.
Gu Langyun chuckled and continued, "That's right. Based on Yang Zhen's actions recently, he is indeed very suitable to explore the Spirit Road. It's just a pity that his talent is limited; at such a young age, he's only at the Nascent Soul Realm stage. You want to wait for him to appear, right? Then I, Gu, will meet Ye Zhiming first, and then wait for Yang Zhen to appear with you. But I wonder..."
At this point, Gu Langyun suddenly burst into laughter, a chilling killing intent emanating from his longsword as he charged towards Ye Zhiming: "I just wonder if Yang Zhen can arrive before you die!"
Buzz!
A deafening roar echoed as Gu Langyun slashed down with his sword. The surrounding air seemed to freeze, and a visible shockwave transformed into a terrifying shockwave that was difficult to look at directly, rushing towards Ye Zhiming.
Ye Zhiming's expression changed drastically, but he still laughed heartily, his longsword bursting with endless light to meet Gu Langyun's attack!
