Chapter 179: The Scheming and the Ice Mountain


    Fan Longyu’s speed was fast, quickly reaching Huang Xueqing’s face, one hand already reaching for her veil. Suddenly, a lotus flower bloomed under Huang Xueqing’s feet. The jade-colored lotus instantly protected her, and Fan Longyu’s hand felt like it touched something as hard as steel, unable to advance any further.


    Then the jade lotus gradually grewrger, about to push Fan Longyu off the arena likest time.


    “Such a trivial trick won’t work on me!” Fan Longyu sneered, then threw a punch at the lotus. However, contrary to his expectations, the lotus didn’t even have a scratch. “What powerful defense.”


    As the lotus grewrger andrger, Fan Longyu became anxious. He instantly transformed into a half-human, half-dragon form, not only with a dragon tail but also dragon wings this time, bing incredibly fierce.


    “Dragon Scale w!” Fan Longyu wed, tearing arge hole as if ripping paper, then walked in. Looking at Huang Xueqing inside the lotus, he revealed a ferocious smile, “It seems your defensive technique can’t stop me after all.”


    Huang Xueqing smiled slightly, “If I didn’t show a weakness, how would youe in?” Huang Xueqing suddenly shed backward, flying gracefully like an immortal out of the lotus. Then the torn part of the lotus instantly repaired itself, trapping Fan Longyu inside like a prison. The ever-growing lotus now began to shrink.


    “This thing of yours can’t trap me!” Fan Longyu stomped the ground, his dragon ws reaching upward. However, unlikest time, the inner wall of the lotus was incredibly smooth this time, even rebounding his own power. He couldn’t tear it open at all.


    “Can’t Fan Longyu’s human-dragon form break through this lotus’s defense?” Below the arena, even Tai’e frowned. He could sense that Fan Longyu’s power in human-dragon form was no less than his own battle marking form.


    Fan Longyu finally lost his previous ease, his eyes serious. Then he opened his mouth, terrifying power umting inside. Soon after, a horrifying dragon breath sword spat out from his mouth. This dragon breath sword attack would make even Spirit God Realm cultivators retreat. The terrifying power indeed made cracks appear on the lotus, but in just a moment, the lotus automatically repaired itself. “What!” Fan Longyu panicked. The hole he had worked so hard to create was repaired so quickly.


    “I don’t believe this!” All power concentrated on Fan Longyu’s wings, the two pairs of wings like two sharp des. He flew high up, his wings slicing through the lotus barrier. Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief, but then a desperate situation appeared before him. A secondyer, thirdyer, fourthyer, fifthyer… A hundredyers of lotus appeared in his sight. He had exhausted his strength to break through the firstyer of lotus, but there were still ny-nineyers behind? In an instant, Fan Longyu was stunned. Then the shrinking lotus carrying Fan Longyu fell outside the arena. Fan Longyu still couldn’t break it open before falling out of bounds.


    “This match, Huang Xueqing wins,” Thunder Lord looked at Huang Xueqing and swallowed. This young girl looked quite innocent, could she be scheming? Thunder Lord could see clearly that the lotus actually only had twoyers, the remaining ny-eightyers were all illusions. However, Fan Longyu fell for it, instantly losing his fighting spirit and also losing hisst chance to break through the lotus.


    Huang Xueqing read Thunder Lord’s thoughts from his eyes and smiled, “Elder Thunder Lord, you don’t think he could win against me just by breaking through the lotus, do you? I still have many techniques I haven’t used. It’s just a pity he couldn’t even break through the Dream Phantom Lotus.”


    Thunder Lord was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself what kind of monster this girl was. Fan Longyu was really unlucky to encounter her. The second spot naturally fell into Huang Xueqing’s hands.


    Fan Longyu looked around awkwardly, wishing he could tear Huang Xueqing apart. It was frustrating, too frustrating. He had lost like this.


    “Tch, what a bad woman. Zhanyue, I warn you, this woman isn’t as innocent as she looks. She’s quite despicable. She could only make twoyers of lotus defense, but she used illusions to make Fan Longyu think he was facing a hundredyers of lotus, instantly breaking his mentality,” Nangong Wei warned.


    Zhanyue nodded. He had never seen Huang Xueqing as a naive girl. Earlier, when she gave precious pills to that child, normal people would think this was a saintly act, but she said it was just to clear her own thoughts. At that time, Zhanyue knew this woman wasn’t some naive girl. She might just really dislike conflict with others and dislike fighting and killing, but that doesn’t mean she can’t do these things. Not liking and not being able to are two different things. Earlier, when Nangong Wei said she only learned defensive techniques, could this also be her disguise?


    “I wonder if my techniques could break through her defense,” Zhanyue thought for a while. Perhaps only that mysterious Three Talents Wondrous Fire might work. Sun Essence Fire, Earth Vein Shadow Fire, and Human Desire Fire, a sacred mebining the attributes of heaven, earth, and man. Zhanyue hadn’t fully mastered its abilities yet.


    The two matches in the winners’ bracket were thrilling to watch. Although Fan Longyu lost, everyone knew he should be able to fight back from the losers’ bracket. Everyone’s attention turned to the third match of the winners’ bracket, Feng Bng versus Yunyao.


    Yunyao still stood like an ice mountain. Feng Bng, looking at this beautiful figure opposite him, sighed, “What a cold woman. I wonder which man could melt this block of ice.”


    “Greetings, Fairy Yun,” Feng Bng greeted first.


    “Let’s begin,” Yunyao said coldly, her eyes showing neither joy nor sorrow, neither love nor hate.


    “What a proud woman. But I heard you went to see the Divine Sonst night and got turned away. Someone daring to refuse a fairy, it seems there’s someone even more arrogant than you in this world,” Feng Bng couldn’t help but tease. This proud woman had finally met someone who gave her the cold shoulder.


    Yunyao’s brows furrowed slightly, feeling Feng Bng was too talkative.


    “Don’t be angry, fairy. If you really want to pursue that Divine Son, I can give you some advice. After all, it’s said that when a woman pursues a man, it’s as thin as paper,” Feng Bng continued.


    Yunyao’s face indeed changed. A snow-white divine sword appeared in her hand, instantly at Feng Bng’s throat. Only because Feng Bng said three words did he escape disaster.


    “I surrender!”


    The crowd couldn’t hear the previous conversation clearly, but these three words were deafening.


    “What the hell, he surrendered just like that? (ˉ▽￣～) Tch~~” A bunch of people looked at Feng Bng with disdain.


    Feng Bng calmly said, “I couldn’t win anyway, why expose my techniques?”


    Yunyao didn’t pay attention to Feng Bng and directly left the stage, but Feng Bng had nted a seed in her heart. Previously, she didn’t care about being turned away by Zhanyue, but now she started to mind.


    Below the arena, Huan Xiaoyao asked puzzledly, “Brother Feng, why did you provoke her for no reason? That was dangerous just now.”


    Feng Bng smiled and said, “I was going to surrender anyway, I couldn’t let her win sofortably, right? I imagine she’s not feelingfortable now either. It’s just a pity that Divine Son might be on that woman’s mind now. But he’s the Divine Son, he should be fine, right?”
