Le Huang fell silent for a moment. Her father was friends with Gu Lei's father. Although the latter had betrayed Ling Xiao Peak, Le Huang's father had yet to become the sect master of Ling Xiao Peak.
"Hand over the Dragon Pearl and we'll let you leave."
In the end, Empress Le slowly opened her mouth under Fenghao's instructions.
Gu Lei was silent for a moment. He looked around, then shook his head and said to the Music Empress, "This Dragon Pearl is very important to me. I must obtain it."
Le Huang shook her head in silence in response to Gu Lei's unyielding attitude. After a brief moment, Feng Hao spoke up, "You know that it's impossible for you to leave this place in the hands of the four of us."
Indeed, Gu Lei could easily deal with other experts by relying on the fact that they were in a bad state. He could even find an opportunity to leave the Dragon Transformation Pool. However, this method was clearly useless against Fenghao's group of four.
"No one knows the outcome without trying." Gu Lei took a deep breath and raised his head. His face still maintained a calm expression.
"As long as I'm alive, the Dragon Pearl will remain."
This was Gu Lei's answer. Obviously, he would rather stand opposite Fenghao and the others than give up on the dragon balls.
Feng Hao and Le Huang exchanged a glance in the face of Gu Lei's choice. They were clearly feeling a little regretful. However, the remaining experts in the surroundings were unhappy.
Le Huang's current attitude was equivalent to fighting for the Dragon Pearl, which they couldn't accept. After all, they had gone through so many battles, but in the end, it was others who benefited.
"Young Master Le, aren't you looking down on us a little?"
At this moment, someone stood up and said.
"That's right. We fought so hard for the Dragon Pearl, but in the end, it's yours."
"Young Master Le, you guys have already taken two treasures. Leave this one to us."
Immediately, all sorts of voices rang out. All of them had the same meaning. They didn't want Le Huang to interfere.
The Music Empress laughed coldly without end when facing these people, and she said, "What does that have to do with me? I remember that I once said that the treasure will fall into the hands of that person in the end."
"So what if we take all three treasures?"
Empress Le's unyielding attitude clearly made the others feel sullen. However, they couldn't say anything and could only maintain their silence.
"Furthermore, with your current state, even if you were given the Dragon Balls, you would still feel that you would be able to leave the Dragon Transformation Pool alive." The Music Empress said indifferently. These people deserved it. For the sake of obtaining the Dragon Pearl, they disregarded everything else and directly fought to the death. In the end, they only ended up benefiting others.
"The battle now is no longer something you can interfere with." Nangong Wuji said in a solemn voice as he waved the Exquisite Celestial Ruler in his hand. His tone contained a trace of threat.
Seeing the unyielding attitude of the three of them, even if they were unwilling, they didn't dare to say anything, especially when they saw the Exquisite Celestial Ruler in Nangong Wuji's hand. They had clearly witnessed the might of the Exquisite Celestial Ruler, and it was definitely an existence that they couldn't contend against.
"Actually, you guys should be the ones laughing in the end. Even I was tricked by you guys." Gu Lei faintly smiled at this moment. He had schemed against over a hundred people here, but he never expected that Fenghao, Le Huang and the rest would be the ones to reap the benefits in the end.
"You can say whatever you want. My words are still the same. Hand over the Dragon Pearl out of respect for your father, and you can leave." The Music Empress took a deep breath.
"I can't anger you." Gu Lei's reply was even more direct. He slowly stretched out his hands, and there was a ghastly wound on his palms.
"Then there's nothing more to say. Let's see who's stronger." Nangong Wuji casually said. Since the other party wasn't tactful, there was no need for him to waste any more words.
The Music Empress nodded her head, then looked at Feng Hao and said in a solemn voice, "You guys don't need to interfere in this battle. Let me handle it."
Nangong Wuji was instantly speechless. He originally thought that he would be able to fight a great battle and experience the might of the Exquisite Celestial Ruler, but he never expected that the Music Empress would beat him to it.
Feng Hao fell silent for a moment, then said, "Then I'll leave it to you."
Feng Hao clearly knew that the Music Empress wanted a fair fight. Truth be told, Gu Lei wouldn't be able to last long against the four of them, even if he possessed extraordinary means.
Shadow nodded his head, but he didn't express his opinion. If the Music Empress was truly in a dangerous situation, he wouldn't care and would directly intervene. This was the meaning of his existence.
"For the sake of your father, let's have a fair fight." The Music Empress took a deep breath, then slowly drew the Worldly Sword in her hand and calmly looked at Gu Lei.
"If you win, you can leave with the Dragon Pearl. If you lose, leave behind the Dragon Pearl and perhaps your life."
Such a simple sentence was slowly uttered by the Music Empress. Clearly, when experts of their level fought, once they entered a state of battle, there was no such thing as mercy. It was either live or die.
Gu Lei looked at the Music Empress with a trace of admiration in his eyes. He originally thought that the four of them would join forces to deal with him, but he didn't expect that the Music Empress would choose to face him alone.
"Since that's the case, I won't be unreasonable." Gu Lei smiled. With a flip of his hand, two strange black jade slips appeared in his palm.
"I'll use my full strength against you. If I lose, I'll naturally hand over the Dragon Pearl." A strange smile appeared on Gu Lei's face. At the same time, the energy within his body instantly erupted.
The Music Empress' eyes were incomparably solemn as she stared at Gu Lei. She didn't make the first move, because she knew that Gu Lei's methods would be difficult to deal with. This was something that her father had displayed in the past.
The puppet's secret technique was a headache for many Divine Masters. Gu Lei was his biological son, so he must have inherited all of his teachings.
"Twin Star Puppet."
