Chen Yun had never felt such fear since he obtained that insect egg.
After the prominent families of the capital moved into the South Sea, news broke Heavenly Capital about which family had produced another prodigy, how promising they would be, and how limitless their future was. In the past, he would have complained and felt all sorts of injustice.
But after that insect egg hatched and merged with him, he never envied or feared anyone again. On the contrary, he often looked down on everyone from the shadows.
Many people thought he had only obtained a secret artifact, but no one knew that he had evolved to another level. Those so-called gifted prodigies were just hothouse flowers, utterly incapable of being broken.
Everyone says Nie Youyun has an extremely strong murderous aura, but when he encounters a truly formidable opponent, is that really murderous aura?
It's no different from a kitten.
These privileged individuals, including the elders, had no idea what true malevolent energy was.
But now, in front of this woman, he felt that he was no different from Nie Youyun.
Looking at that cruel smile, and feeling the worm in his chest, which had once given him so much confidence, tremble with fear, he suddenly realized that this so-called Ancient Void Insect was nothing more than a frog in a well.
"Run!"
Just as he closed his eyes and awaited death, a voice transmission in his ear jolted him awake. A flame rose from the ground, and Chen Yun knew that Su Changqing had made his move!
The flames rushed towards the two of them, forcing White Plain was biting Chen Yun's neck, to let go and retreat. Chen Yun was a beat too slow, and his arms were engulfed in flames, threatening to melt instantly.
Southern Brightness Li Fire, that kid really went all out!
Chen Yun quickly retreated, cursing inwardly!
That kid Su Changqing, he claims to be saving me, but I'm afraid he has ulterior motives. If the other party doesn't let go immediately, he might just burn me to death too, since all the runes will be his then.
But there was no time to think further; they had to quickly exit the magic circle and settle accounts with that guy.
"Which way?" Chen Yun asked as they retreated.
"Back off to the left and back, there's an exit there!" Su Changqing quickly transmitted his voice.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yun rushed madly in the direction indicated by the other party without hesitation. As long as he could get out of the spell's range first, the blind White Plain would no longer be a threat. At worst, he could play it safe and not get close, but wear her down from a distance. Sooner or later, he could wear that bitch down!
When his life comes to an end, he will show his opponent what true cruelty is!
Su Changqing was outside the range of the technique, thought the same way. As long as they withdrew from this wave and created distance, their chances of winning would be at least 70%!
"We've been tricked."
Seeing this scene from the outside, Chen Qing shook his head and sighed slightly. It seemed that the only remaining heir of the Su Family was going to die here.
"Why does King of Qin Highness say that?" Chen Baifeng squinted, his expression unreadable, and asked in a calm and unhurried tone.
"That White Plain was very clever. She judged the situation correctly from the beginning. Su Changqing's magic array distorted the light and shadow, and she was also injured. If she didn't gouge out her eyes and make a desperate move, she would most likely die here. So she first ruthlessly attacked herself, seized the opportunity to grab Chen Yun who was attacking her, and used the characteristics of the magic array to deliver a fatal blow."
"But she knew very well that even if she killed Chen Yuan, she would be blind and severely injured. If her opponent kept wearing her down, it would be very difficult for her, blind as she was, to defend against a sorcerer skilled in ranged attacks. Therefore, she had to take advantage of her remaining strength to kill them both at the same time!"
"But if that's the case, why did she release Chen Yun so easily just now?" Chen Baifeng frowned.
"You have to let go to lock onto both people's positions at the same time," Chen Qing said with a wry smile.
" King of Qin Highness, aren't you exaggerating?" An elder of the Su Family said dismissively, "Look, Cloud Capital has already safely withdrawn from the spell's range, but that demon—" When he mentioned the demon, the Su Family elder glanced at the woman in red beside Chen Qing and snorted coldly, "Is still standing there in a daze."
This was indeed a close call, but the rewards were enormous. Victory was in sight. If they could obtain all the runes on the demoness and open the Azure Dragon Treasure Hall, the Su Family would gain access to the 14 Holy Guards. With that, the Su Family would have a solid foundation!
And you might even find an even more valuable secret artifact in the Treasured Artifact Hall!
As for adjusting Zhang Xiaoyun, that monster in the Azure Dragon Gate?
They had no hope at all. They had already discussed it with Su Changqing beforehand. If they weren't confident, they would withdraw immediately. After obtaining the secret artifact with the Azure Dragon Rune, they could simply admit defeat. In that case, the trip wouldn't have been a complete loss.
"She's not spacing out," Chen Qing said with amusement. "She's waiting."
"What are we waiting for? Of course, we're waiting for Chen Yun and your only son to reunite," Chen Qing said, rolling her eyes at him.
"What do you mean?" Upon hearing this, the elders of the Su Family frowned, a sense of unease rising in their hearts.
Chen Baifeng suddenly understood something and quickly looked back at the screen. Sure enough, White Plain moved in the next instant, incredibly fast. Just as Chen Yun and Su Changqing regrouped and retreated, she pounced out of the spell's range and rushed straight towards them.
"How is this possible?" Several elders of the Su Family were immediately shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.
Su Changqing's spells are extremely powerful in actual combat, especially when encountered for the first time. It is impossible to escape from them easily. The endless distorted light and shadow is like a maze that you cannot understand. The orientation of the outside is completely wrong when viewed from inside the spell. The light and shadow inside are distorted several times. It is not possible to catch the caster simply by looking in the opposite direction.
But the other party seemed to have seen through them, and immediately locked onto their positions.
"Isn't she blind?" an elder couldn't help but ask.
Even a sighted person couldn't determine location; how did a blind person manage it?
"It's precisely because you're blind that it's so easy to do," Chen Qing said coldly. "This light and shadow can only have a huge impact on vision. Without visual interference, the other senses won't be affected or hypnotized."
"But even that can't be locked on so precisely," Chen Baifeng said doubtfully. "My Chen Yun didn't retreat recklessly. Although she retreated quickly, she maintained her agility and made no sound. Is the other party blind? Even if they deliberately let my Yun'er go, how could they have tracked her down?"
"She's a demon," Chen Qing sighed. "She's naturally skilled at tracking prey by scent. Isn't it normal that she took the opportunity to leave some of her scent on Chen Yun during their fight?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Baifeng's pupils contracted, and the group of the Su Family elders were also stunned.
Yes, how could they not have thought of that?
This time, something really bad is probably going to happen!
Sure enough, Su Changqing also saw the figure rushing towards Chen Yun from behind. The clever man understood almost instantly that the other party had deliberately let Chen Yun come to meet him.
This is terrible!!
Seeing White Plain close to within ten meters in the blink of an eye, Su Changqing knew that at this distance, there was no way he could escape. He was probably really going to die here today!
