1729 Hard to Say
In a hurry, Dao Wuji decisively chopped off half of his hair and rolled to the ground. He then shot up quickly onto his feet.
Just as he turned his head and was thinking of fleeing out the door, the giant morning glory seemed to have gotten infuriated and started hissing. Its abruptly gaping mouth shot out a big blob of green fluid at Dao Wuji.
Dao Wuji was finally unable to dodge this time as he got hit straight on.
He immediately wailed tragically, "I'm finished!"
Yet Dao Wuji, who had gotten spit on the face with a poison solution, did not die on the spot. Instead, he felt that his face and body were a bit chilly.
After carefully opening his eyes, he discovered that he was situated inside a large mass of green fluid and was hanging upside down from one of the giant morning glory's branches.
All the blood was rushing to his head from getting hung upside down like this!
Yet he noticed that he was not the only unlucky fellow that was hanging there.
Before him, it seemed like there had been many people hanging upside down from its branches too.
However, Dao Wuji simply did not notice this at the beginning when they fought. Observing his surroundings now, he saw that the numerous corpses inside the green fluid had all shriveled up in all forms and fashions.
They were clearly being used as this man-eating flower's food!
C-Could it be, th-that he would also become the man-eating flower's food? He would become a shriveled corpse?
Ah!! Dao Wuji struggled furiously to break free, but it was unfortunately all in vain.
Dao Wuji couldn't help but give up after trying to break free for a long time.
While hanging upside down from the flower's branch, he started to muse over his life that he ordinarily wouldn't even think about…

Inside Shuntian Prefecture's Wengka City, Qianluo Underground Battle Arena.
The atmosphere was very heated.
At this time, Qianluo Underground Battle Arena had launched two levels of battle arena matches.
In the lower level, two competitors were proceeding with a normal battle.
An upper level rose from the center of the arena, where the king of the arena would stand.
The open challenge took place at the same time as the normal matches. Thunderous cheers came from all directions when the battle got entertaining. It was as if the audience members wished that they had an extra pair of eyes to watch it all.
All kinds of mystic techniques flew about, and the five spirits had all assembled. Sometimes, the matches on both levels were so intense that they felt like their eyesight was lacking.
The king of the arena from earlier got chased down the stage after defending his title for nine battles, and the winner became the new king of the arena. He hung the sign in front of his chest and raised his chin arrogantly!
Yet it didn't even take three matches for him to follow in his predecessor's footsteps…
Qiao Mu watched for a while, but these individual matchups weren't that exciting in her eyes.
Hence, she wasn't interested in watching after a while.
Qiao Mu shut her eyes and leaned back in her seat. She was a bit drowsy.
She was used to taking afternoon naps, but because she had to train every day now, she didn't have time to nap.
After an hour, Qiao Mu heard excited screams just as she was about to drift to sleep.
The crowd in the underground battle arena seemed to have been lit ablaze, and the people were instantly in a hubbub.
Qiao Mu opened her eyes and first looked in front of her in a daze before turning to Qi Xuanxuan. "It's not us yet."
"Nope, one of these teams is Team Gadfly. They are supposedly super strong. They are first place in the team competition right now."
All the floodlights in the arena were gathered on these two five-person teams.
The audience members who had watched Team Gadfly's competitions before were even more ecstatic.
