Chapter 142 Perilous Situation (2/2)
It was clear that he no longer planned to play the role of a cat toying with a mouse. He was now out to kill.
Zhou Yuan's expression grew increasingly grave. He rubbed the silver ring on his finger as a grim coldness flashed in his eyes.
If there was really no other choice, he would have to use Silver Shadow. The current him was already at the advance Illusory stage, and would surely be able to quickly escape Wu Huang by borrowing Silver Shadow’s power. The only uncertainty was how long he would be unconscious after using Silver Shadow.
It was extremely risky. There was no one around to protect him, and he was in the Saint Remains Domain that was filled with unknown dangers.
But… it would at the very least be better than dying at Wu Huang’s hands.
Wu Huang’s body slowly rose into the air, standing on Genesis Qi as he looked down from above at Zhou Yuan and indifferently said, “I should really let Wu Yao see your miserable appearance. I believe she will no longer have any doubts about the fact that I am the true dragon, don’t you agree?”
He shook his head, deciding that he would not waste anymore time. His hands slapped together, and scarlet-red Genesis Qi roared out, like a river of magma filled with overwhelming destructive force that flowed towards Zhou Yuan.
Space warped and twisted wherever the scarlet-red flood passed.
Scarlet-red filled Zhou Yuan’s vision. He took in a deep breath as a resolute look flitted across his eyes. With a pat of his Universe bag, a silver ball appeared in his hand.
Bzz!
However, right before Zhou Yuan was about to activate Silver Shadow, a peculiar sound suddenly rang out across the area, a sound that seemed similar to the cry of a sword.
Swish!
The flood of red descended, but it was at this very moment that a black shadow suddenly zoomed over from behind at a shocking speed. A sharp aura burst forth, cutting deep wounds on the ground.
Bzz!
The black shadow met the scarlet-red flood, the berserk aftershocks from their clash tearing up the surrounding ground.
As the dust gradually settled, Zhou Yuan was stunned to see a thick tipless black broadsword standing in front of him.
Sharp sword Qi pulsed from the sword as it trembled.
Wu Huang’s expression sunk when he saw the black broadsword and icily shouted, “Blind Sword Li Chunjun! Why are you being a busybody?!”
“Blind Sword?”
Zhou Yuan’s heart shook as he turned his head, only to see a figure in black slowly approaching. The figure’s footsteps were not quick, but in a mere few breaths, he had already arrived in front of Zhou Yuan, standing behind the black broadsword.
He raised his head, his black cloth covered eyes looking towards Wu Huang as he placed both hands on the sword grip and said in a hoarse voice, “I owe him a meal debt.”
Wu Huang’s gaze darkened as the scarlet-red Genesis Qi around him began to churn, clearly now enraged.
The black clothed youth called Li Chunjun tilted his head slightly and said to Zhou Yuan, “Go, I will stop him.”
The silver ball in Zhou Yuan’s hand returned to his Universe bag. He looked at Li Chunjun in silence for some time, before he said, “Thank you.”
Although he still had his final trump card, it was naturally best to avoid using it.
Li Chunjun shook his head. “I’m merely repaying the roast meat debt.”
Zhou Yuan grinned. “Don’t kill him… I intend to personally end him.”
Lu Chunjun was taken aback, evidently surprised by Zhou Yuan’s charisma. The former could feel that the latter was trying to act tough, but was truly serious about it.
For the first time, a faint smile appeared on his stiff face. “Don’t worry, the current me cannot kill him.”
Zhou Yuan chuckled and nodded, before raising his head as he looked towards the stormy-face Wu Huang and said, “Such a great opportunity, and yet you’ve still failed to kill me. What do you think this means?”
“It means that your blessing is a fake…”
Zhou Yuan let out a hearty laugh, paying no further notice to Wu Huang, whose face had grown so stormy that it was about to break into a downpour. There was no hesitation as Zhou Yuan turned around and transformed into a flash of light that rapidly disappeared into the horizon.
A voice seemed to echo from far away.
”Wu Huang, make sure to take good care of your head so I can take it the next time we meet!”
