Lu Yuxing nodded slightly and looked below the stage. He smiled and said, "Brother Zimao, are you still waiting? If you don't come out, Lady Ruobing will be mine. "
"Hmph!"
Ruan Zimao let out a light snort. Lu Yuxing's strength was considered top-notch among the younger generation. If he didn't make a move personally, no one would be able to win.
He peeked at Zhu Yuqi and laughed lightly. "Brother Yuqi, don't you want to go up and try your skills?"
Zhu Yuqi replied indifferently, "I feel that Brother Zimao is slightly stronger than Brother Yuxing. It is more interesting to exchange pointers with Brother Zimao later."
The two of them had a pleasant conversation as though they were old friends. However, the battle intent in their eyes was getting stronger. At their level, they might focus on exchanging pointers, but they were just a step away from the championship. It wasn't an impossible task. Therefore, every step had to be taken with extreme caution.
"Keke, since that is the case, then I shall display my incompetence first!"
Ruan Zimao's eyes flashed with a trace of haze as he leaped up. Zhu Yuqi would be his greatest opponent this time, and Lu Yuxing couldn't be underestimated either.
Jiang Bieli asked Lu Yuxing, "Do you want to rest?"
For the sake of fairness, the party that remained on the stage could request for a rest.
Lu Yuxing let out a light laugh and said, "Of course. I might not have exhausted much essence force, but my opponent is Brother Zimao. I have to fight with 120% of my strength!"
Ruan Zimao let out a cold snort and stood with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly.
The spectators were all in high spirits. After over a dozen eliminations, it was finally time for the duel between Emperor Wu. Everyone's eyes were filled with excitement.
On the contrary, Jiang Churan's eyes were turbid and lifeless as though he wasn't concerned at all.
Ruan Hongyu used her finger to poke him and spoke with anger, "Zimao is going up. Who do you think will win this single elimination tournament?"
Jiang Churan then regained his senses and smiled. "It is hard to say. From the looks of it, Zimao's chances of winning aren't small, but that Zhu Yuqi doesn't seem to be simple either. Before the duel ends, no one can predict the outcome. "
"Hurhur, from what you said, it will be rather difficult for Zimao to win!"
Ruan Hongyu's face was filled with displeasure. "I don't think you're in the mood for the tournament. Are you thinking about the nine-coloured halo?"
Jiang Churan nodded slightly and said with a serious expression, "I didn't sense any peerless expert making a move. That nine-colored halo might have been created by some other method. However, the moon has already passed, so it should be fine. It's just that we're in troubled times right now, and Ruobing is still running around as she pleases. It seems like we've been too lenient on her. "
Ruan Hongyu smiled and said, "It's too late to care about it now. She's about to get married and ruin her in-laws' family."
Jiang Churan bitterly smiled as he shook his head. He focused his gaze, wanting to see through the layers of light and see the profundities behind them.
In the depths of the halo, rays of golden light spun ceaselessly, blasting away the nine colors. The entire City Barrier Array was forcibly opened up, opening up a passage to the outside world.
"Success! It's connected to the array formation outside the city! "
Li's face revealed a hint of joy, and he said, "Lord Shang, let's leave quickly!"
There was a faint flash in the void, and four figures appeared. They were precisely Shang, Tang Jie, Li Yi, and Jiang Ruobing.
Jiang Ruobing had an excited look on her face as she said happily, "Haha, we can finally leave! Hurry up and go! "
Li smiled and said, "The other end of this array formation is 100,000 miles away. It's equivalent to a small-scale teleportation array. As long as we teleport in, unless the other party has a Emperor Jiuxing powerhouse chasing after us, there's absolutely no need to worry. "
Before entering the city to rescue people, Shang set up an array formation 100,000 miles away as a precaution. He did not think that it would be put to use.
Shang nodded his head and was just about to enter the passageway when his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he shouted, "Not good! Hurry up and go! "
He suddenly smacked both palms out, forming a force that could topple mountains and overturn the seas, pushing the four people into that passageway. He himself also took a step out, and half of his body also entered the passageway. However, he suddenly seemed to freeze.
"Think that you can escape just because there's a spatial passageway? What kind of place do you take my Crimson Moon City to be?!"
Ning Keyue's ice-cold voice transmitted over, and the Song of Time appeared in his hand. He tossed it forward, and it immediately flew into the passageway. At the same time, he kicked Shang's body into it.
Shang was greatly shocked. After entering the passageway, he immediately discovered that something was amiss. The pitch-black passageway started to collapse inch by inch under the power of that golden scepter. The five people's figures directly appeared in the Realm of Heaven Martial Arts, and they fell from the sky.
Everyone's faces were filled with great shock. Not only was the passageway destroyed, but they also discovered that there were three people beside them. They were the Death God's Eight Elephants!
Lil Eight smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Jie Nan, your concealment technique is unparalleled in the world, but now you've been discovered."
Jie Nan was so angry that she was speechless, and she shouted, "What do you mean discovered? It's all because this group of demons dilly-dallied, and the people of the Red Moon City caught up to them. They directly destroyed the passageway, and implicated us!"
Tang Jie's anger soared, and he said, "Bastards! You took advantage of us, and now you blame us for implicating you? I'll kill you bastards! "
He wanted to soar up and fly over to kill them, but he felt that his whole body was powerless.
The seven of them were restrained by a wave of energy, and they fell to the ground.
Following the fall was the Song of Time. With a clang, it stabbed into the ground, and emitted a golden light. The seven of them were all fixed in place, and they were unable to move.
Jiang Ruobing cried out in shock, "We're finished, we're finished. It's my Master's scepter!"
Lil Eight replied, "If you're not finished, then we're finished! When your Master comes, you'll at most suffer a few scoldings, but we'll lose our lives! "
Jiang Ruobing said anxiously, "Mister Shang, what do we do now? My Master is about to catch up! "
Shang's expression was abnormally grave. The Master that Jiang Ruobing mentioned was naturally the woman who had fixed his figure in place, and kicked him into the passageway. That power was definitely Emperor Jiuxing!
He said seriously, "This should be outside of the Red Moon City, and we don't know how far it is. Everyone should work together to break this profound artifact's power, and then we can leave. Otherwise, we'll be finished when they arrive!"
Jie Nan scolded angrily, "How do we break it? All the Origin Energy in my body has been frozen, and this damned scepter! "His eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said," Mister Shang, don't you have a powerful ball? Quickly take it out and break this scepter! "
Shang said coldly, "All the Origin Energy in my body has been frozen, how can I take out the armillary sphere? I can't even transform into my demon form now! "
Jie Nan said dejectedly, "Then what should we do? Sit and wait for death? "
Jiang Ruobing hurriedly said, "No, no, don't sit and wait for death! Everyone can use their physical strength to move bit by bit, and the further away we are from this scepter, the less affected we will be. At that time, we can take out the profound artifact and break this thing! "
"Alright! Let's fight! "
Everyone's desire to survive was extremely strong, and they began to clench their teeth and move away from the scepter. Jiang Ruobing, on the other hand, was a cheerleader at the side, constantly cheering them on.
In the sky above the Red Moon City, Ning Keyue closed her eyes and calculated, and softly snorted, "Three thousand miles north of the city."
At this moment, Ning Hangfeng and the others had also gathered due to the halo phenomenon, and upon hearing this, they immediately led the group of experts towards the north of the city.
Ning Keyue said, "Let's go take a look as well. That lass Ruobing is too insensible, I have to discipline her properly this time!"
She and Li Yunxiao also turned into a ray of light and headed towards the north of the city.
Everyone's speed was extremely fast, and they quickly discovered where the others were, and they were all desperately moving their bodies far away.
Ning Hangfeng snorted coldly, and the dozen or so people immediately descended and directly surrounded the nine people, all of them sneering incessantly.
Shang and the others all turned pale, knowing that they would not be able to escape this time.
Ning Hangfeng said, "Young Lady Ruobing, you are too insensible, causing such a huge commotion."
Jiang Ruobing hurriedly said, "If you still recognize me as the Second Young Lady, then immediately help me pull out this scepter, and then bring your people back!"
"Impudent!"
The air twisted slightly, and Ning Keyue and Li Yunxiao walked out together. Ning Keyue's expression was gloomy as she glared at Jiang Ruobing.
Jiang Ruobing was so frightened that her entire body trembled. Originally, it was abnormally difficult to move her body, and now, she was so frightened that she took a step back, directly knocking into Li.
Li stared at her, panting, and the light in her eyes flickered incessantly.
Jiang Ruobing looked at her eyes, and suddenly felt fear in her heart. She said, "Big Sister Li, everyone is squeezing out, why are you squeezing towards me?"
Li laughed bitterly and said, "I can't escape. I can only apologize to my younger sister."
She gently raised her hand and grabbed Jiang Ruobing's neck. Her ice-cold fingernails slid across her jade neck, and she said indifferently, "Sirs of Scarlet Moon City, we have no enmity between us. The only gap between us is also caused by the Death God's Eight Symbols. I hope that everyone can live in harmony."
"You …!"
Jiang Ruobing panicked and said angrily, "You actually took me as a hostage! To think that I treated you as my older sister! "
Li laughed bitterly and helplessly. "Sorry, Younger Sister. If there is a chance, I will compensate you next time. I can die, but Lord Shang can't, so I have to do this kind of hostage taking."
Jie Nan slapped his forehead and said in annoyance, "What a clever female demonic beast! Why didn't we think of that?! "He was extremely annoyed. Taking Jiang Ruobing hostage might be their only chance.
The people of Scarlet Moon City were all shocked and furious, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Li Yunxiao laughed coldly and said, "Li, there was originally no enmity between us, but you taking Scarlet Moon City's Second Young Mistress hostage like this is already a deep hatred."
Li said with a calm expression, "The situation forced me to, and I also didn't want to. If it were you guys, you would also do the same. "
Ning Keyue said coldly, "She made a mistake and reaped what she sowed. If you have the ability, then kill her!"
Li's pupils constricted, and he shouted, "Stop!"
When his voice fell, his five fingernails had already pierced into her throat. Bright red blood flowed down and dyed her pure white top red, appearing even more ghastly.
Ning Keyue's expression darkened. Just now, she indeed wanted to use words to intimidate Li, and then inadvertently kill her. She did not expect that the other party actually saw through it. This demoness was not simple!
Li said sternly, "The situation forced me to, and I had no choice! If you insist on perishing together, then I have nothing to say! "
Her five fingernails pierced even deeper, and the wound was frighteningly deep. Jiang Ruobing's face paled. If she used just a little more strength, her entire head would be cut off, and then there would really be no way to save her.
