Chapter 13954: Duel in Cangyue Realm
Shangguan Yue gently played with the scepter in her hand. The scepter was crystal clear and had a gem emitting a mysterious glow inlaid on the top. As she moved, the gem flashed with colorful light.
The corners of her mouth curled up into a meaningful smile, that smile was like peach blossoms blooming in spring, seemingly gentle, but with hidden meanings. She said with her red lips, "Okay. If you can withstand this move that I will use with all my strength, I will let you go safely today, and this contest between us will come to an end."
Ling Xiao held his hands in front of his chest, wearing a black suit that made his figure look even taller and more slender.
His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright. There was a sense of unruliness and confidence in his eyes. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. He asked in return: "It's too easy to take your move. How about you take mine? Maybe with this move, the victory or defeat will be decided immediately, and we can save ourselves from this entanglement."
Ling Xiao paused, staring at Shangguan Yue, and continued, "If you can survive my attack, you will win today. How about that? I, Ling Xiao, always keep my word and never lie."
His voice was deep and powerful, echoing in the slightly tense atmosphere.
The moment the words fell, a bright light shone from Ling Xiao's palm. The light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, causing the people around him to squint their eyes.
After the light faded, a simple yet majestic bloodthirsty knife appeared in his hand.
The blade of this knife is slender and gleams with cold light, as if it was made from thousands of years of ice.
Mysterious and ancient runes were carved on the handle of the knife. Those runes seemed to contain endless power. With the appearance of the knife, the surrounding air seemed to be frozen and the temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.
Ling Xiao secretly circulated the energy in his body, and the energy surged through his body like a surging tide.
At the same time, ancient and mysterious lines slowly emerged on the ground beneath his feet. Those lines flickered, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years was waking up.
The lines flashed with strange light, echoing with the bloodthirsty knife in Ling Xiao's hand, as if telling an unknown secret.
Facing Shangguan Yue, he knew clearly that this woman's strength was unfathomable and he could not afford to be careless and had to go all out.
The moment Ling Xiao took out the bloodthirsty knife, the demon king, who had been playing with a doll in the distance, seemed to sense something and suddenly opened his eyes.
She was originally lying lazily on a gorgeous soft couch, playing with an exquisite doll in her hands, but at this moment she sat up straight in an instant.
Her long, shiny black hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, and her delicate facial features were breathtakingly beautiful. But at this moment, there was a strange glimpse in her eyes, and that strangeness was filled with a hint of vigilance and curiosity.
The sword at her waist also began to make a buzzing sound, as if it sensed the breath of danger and trembled restlessly in the scabbard.
Shangguan Yue's gaze was fixed on the bloodthirsty knife. There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, as if she was examining a rare treasure.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at the knife carefully, and then commented: "This is your confidence! This knife looks extraordinary and must be very powerful. No wonder you are so confident.
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sun in winter, making people feel warm but also with a hint of provocation.
He held the bloodthirsty knife in both hands, and the blade trembled slightly, as if he was also looking forward to a fierce battle.
He looked at Shangguan Yue and said, "Confidence? Not really. It's just a little respect for you."
"After all, Shangguan Yue is also a well-known figure in the martial arts world. If I don't show some real skills, wouldn't it be underestimating you?"
"Just tell me if you dare to take my attack. If you don't dare, forget it. I will take your attack. That's fine. After all, I am a man and I have to give in to women."
His tone was relaxed, but his eyes revealed an unquestionable determination.
Shangguan Yue did not respond to Ling Xiao's questioning, but just stood there quietly, her posture as straight as a pine tree, exuding a cold aura that kept people at a distance.
Her eyes were as calm as water, without a ripple, and she remained silent, as if Ling Xiao's words were just a breeze passing by her ears, leaving no trace.
Seeing this, Ling Xiao frowned slightly, feeling unhappy about being ignored.
He clenched the bloodthirsty knife tightly in both hands, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and the blade trembled slightly in his hand, as if eager to fight.
He said in a deep voice: "If you don't say anything, that means you agree. Okay, let's get started! Today, let me see how capable you, the Moon Fairy, are."
In an instant, a powerful aura surged around Ling Xiao, as if a sleeping giant beast had awakened inside him.
Countless forces of the five elements gathered towards him from all directions like a tide.
The power of gold turned into a sharp sword beam, flashing beside him; the power of wood entwined like vines, adding a bit of vitality and tenacity to him; the power of water was like a gurgling stream, but contained endless softness; the power of fire was like a raging fire, burning his fighting spirit; the power of earth was like the thick earth, giving him steady strength.
These five elements of power intertwined and merged with each other, forming a terrifying energy vortex that tightly wrapped Ling Xiao.
A faint purple light was emanating from Shangguan Yue's body, and that light was like a mysterious mist, enveloping her entire body.
She looked like she was in a state of interweaving reality and illusion, as if she would disappear between heaven and earth in the next moment, giving people a feeling of unreality.
Her figure appeared and disappeared in the light, like a fairy in a dream, yet exuding an elusive mystery.
When Sword King and others who were watching the battle in the void saw this scene, their faces instantly turned ugly.
They opened their eyes wide, filled with shock and disbelief.
The Sword King exclaimed loudly, "Cang Yue Realm! He has reached this realm at such a young age, and he can be compared with the once famous Emperor Zhenwu Liu Che! Who on earth is Shangguan Yue, and why is his talent so terrifying!"
When the people around heard what the Sword King said, they all took a deep breath and started talking.
Ling Xiao roared angrily, and the sound echoed in the valley like thunder, shaking the surrounding flowers, plants and trees.
Immediately afterwards, his figure disappeared in front of everyone in an instant, leaving only a residual shadow.
A knife shadow wrapped in an earthy brown light tore through the air like lightning, making a sharp whistling sound and shot towards Shangguan Yue.
Wherever the knife shadow passed, the space was torn into black cracks, as if it was a painting cut by a sharp blade.
At the same moment, Shangguan Yue slowly closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled gently like butterfly wings.
The space around her suddenly began to burn without any warning. The flames took on a strange purple color. The flames danced freely in the space like nimble snakes, emitting a heart-pounding aura.
