Volume 42, Chapter 579.3: Third Fight, Holy Phoenix Lady (1/2)

Yes, she was Ma Xiaotao. At this moment, she was no longer the Phoenix Holy Lady. She had lost consciousness, and was drifting in the sky like a patch of red clouds, slowly falling to the ground.

Zhong Liwu revealed a cold smile on his face. He pointed his toes to the ground and wanted to leap up to catch her.

However, it was at this moment that a pitch-black hole appeared below Ma Xiaotao without any warning. It was like a slit had opened up in the sky. Ma Xiaotao was instantly devoured, and the slit sealed up. She disappeared just like that. Not even her aura was left.

Zhong Liwu was completely dazed in the air. She’s gone? The Phoenix Holy Lady is gone? What kind of power was that?

An ethereal projection flashed. Another person appeared in the air. It was Huo Yuhao.

His Icy War God’s Armor had dimmed significantly. Its original deep-blue hue had turned shallower. There were even scorch marks left behind on this Class 9 soul tool.

His expression wasn’t shown, as his visor was lowered. However, his Ultimate Ice aura remained.

“I’ve won. This is my third one.” Huo Yuhao said coldly.

Zhong Liwu lifted his head to look at him. The sinister look in his eyes turned even more intense. “Huo Yuhao, where did you take my Phoenix Holy Lady?” His script definitely didn’t involve her disappearance.

Huo Yuhao replied, “You don’t need to know that.”

Zhong Liwu’s eyes turned colder. “Great, great, great!”

What left Huo Yuhao surprised was that Zhong Liwu flew back to the ground after he finished saying those three words.

Is this his only reaction?

Yes, it was just like this. In Zhong Liwu’s mind, would he be afraid that he couldn’t get the Phoenix Holy Lady if his plan succeeded and he controlled Huo Yuhao?

This was why he wasn’t anxious. He suppressed his rage. However, he immediately waved at his own side after he landed on the ground.

The fourth person representing the Sun Moon Empire, or rather, the Holy Ghost Church, appeared!

A black figure leapt out and charged towards Huo Yuhao. This time, the Holy Ghost Church didn’t give Huo Yuhao any buffer time.

The Phoenix Holy Lady had been defeated and abducted by Huo Yuhao. But that was fine! Zhong Liwu had still managed to achieve his goal. He believed that Huo Yuhao would definitely have been greatly drained after that earlier attack, no matter how strong he was. How could he possibly survive the next round?

Even so, he didn’t personally fight in the fourth round. He never did anything he wasn’t confident in. This was why the fourth round was still a prelude to his personal involvement.

When that black figure charged towards him, Huo Yuhao immediately recognized him.

He was familiar. Yes, he was a very familiar person.

He was the Scorpion Tiger Douluo, Zhang Peng!

When Huo Yuhao first met the Scorpion Tiger Douluo, Zhang Peng was pursuing and trying to kill him. Then, Huo Yuhao had Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin’er with him. Xian Lin’er fought Zhang Peng, and they ended in a stalemate. That time, it was also Huo Yuhao’s first meeting Long Xiaoyao. He only managed to chase Long Xiaoyao off through a wager.

Not long ago, Huo Yuhao had learned from Mu En that Long Xiaoyao didn’t harbor any ill-intentions towards him. Otherwise, he would have been able to kill him at their first meeting.

He was no longer as weak as he used to be. He was a powerful Titled Douluo now. This Scorpion Tiger Douluo was already a Transcendent Douluo back then. So many years had passed. His cultivation would have increased. Even though he wasn’t as strong as Feng Ling, the difference wouldn’t be too great either.

Zhang Peng let out a low-pitched tiger roar before he appeared in front of Huo Yuhao. Behind him, a projection of a giant scorpion tiger surfaced. He instantly punched a fist towards Huo Yuhao’s chest.

Huo Yuhao’s Eye of Destiny opened. Huo Yuhao unleashed his Spiritual Shock at the Scorpion Tiger Douluo.

Huo Yuhao had always been very good at making use of his strengths. He was doing that right now.

Zhang Peng groaned, and intense black light was released from his body. It turned into a small mirror that flashed with black light in front of him.

When Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Shock struck the mirror, it was instantly refracted.

Oh? It can refract spiritual power? No wonder he didn’t purchase a spiritual defensive-type soul tool, and no wonder Zhong Liwu sent him to fight. The Holy Ghost Church has strong foundations indeed!

However, that small mirror still cracked, even though it had refracted Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Shock. Zhang Peng’s body shook a little, and his fist arrived right in front of Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao pushed his right hand forward. He was using his Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, a skill that came from the Tang Sect’s Secret Techniques.
