Chapter 206 (2/2)
This sudden change of events instantly surprised Su Ling’Er. She turned her eyes quickly and noticed Mu Chen’s handsome face. Then, she instinctively struggled violently against him.
“If you don’t want to die, then stop moving!” Mu Chen shouted out.
Although things weren’t great between Mu Chen and Su Ling’Er, he couldn’t just watch as she was enveloped by the massive Spiritual Energy wave. Moreover, Su Ling’Er wasn’t as nasty and cold-hearted as Xu Qingqing. At the very least, she wouldn’t be as vicious as Xu Qingqing.
Only then, Su Ling’Er recovered and reacted accordingly. She watched as the Spiritual Energy wave rushed over and enveloped them. At the same time, she held onto Mu Chen’s neck as her body snuggled up into Mu Chen’s arms.
The heavy wave surged over and Mu Chen’s body was struck by a heavy blow. However, he gritted his teeth and the black flames emerged as it evaporated the Spiritual Energy wave that approached his body. Then, with a muffled cry, his body turned into a black light that was ignited with black flames and he charged straight through the massive wave.
The dark-black Spiritual Energy gradually faded away. However, Mu Chen frowned even more tightly. After all, the impact of the Spiritual Energy wave was far too heavy. Even though he possessed the Nine Netherflame and burned most of the Spiritual Energy that smashed into him, it had still made his blood tremble within his body. Waves of pain also emerged from the surface of his body.
However, Mu Chen’s expression remained calm as she released the girl from his arms. Then, he said: “I’ve helped you this time. So consider that I’ve settled the matter earlier.”
“You!”
Su Ling’Er frowned. She wanted to say how could that matter be settled this easily, but once she noticed bruises on Mu Chen, she swallowed back these words down. She knew how heavy the Spiritual Energy wave was. Since she was protected earlier, she didn’t have any injuries. But for Mu Chen, he had endured a heavy blow.
“Are you alright?” Su Ling’Er hesitated for a moment before she lowered her voice and asked.
Mu Chen shook his head. However, his gaze remained fixed at the Celestial Spirit Lotus that had gradually emerged from the massive wave. At this moment, countless individuals were rushing over from all directions. But whenever one approached the Celestial Spirit Lotus, they were obstructed by the others. This place was currently quite chaotic and from time to time, a few unlucky people would be blown away while vomiting blood.
“Let’s cooperate.” Mu Chen looked at Su Ling’Er and said: “I’ll help you obstruct Xu Qingqing. You will go seize the Celestial Spirit Lotus. Then, we will split the loot later on, okay?”
His goal was obviously not small. If he were to attempt to seize the Celestial Spirit Lotus, it was likely that he would become a target by everyone nearby. However, Su Ling’Er was different. She had a powerful background. Moreover, she was quite beautiful. Towards such a beautiful girl, most of the people would have an attitude of protecting her. Therefore, this would give Su Ling’Er an opportunity to seize the Celestial Spirit Lotus.
Coupled with the fact that Su Ling’Er had a few helpers, it would help prevent a few troubles for her.
Hearing this, Su Ling’Er hesitated for a moment. In the end, she nodded. Since Xu Qingqing had advanced to the Heavenly Fusion Stage Late Phase, her strength was beyond her own. Therefore, it wouldn’t be easy for her to obstruct Xu Qingqing.
“Keke, a hero saving a beauty. Su Ling’Er, you’re truly quite charismatic and charming!” From nearby, Xu Qingqing witnessed Mu Chen saving Su Ling’Er and her expression instantly turned cold. She gritted her teeth and sneered at Su Ling’Er.
“Also, the guy called Mu Chen. I would advise you to stop getting involved with our own affairs. A mere freshman does not have the right to act like a hero!” Xu Qingqing shouted out mockingly towards Mu Chen.
“There’s no need for you to be bothered by it.” Mu Chen replied faintly. He immediately waved his hand towards Su Ling’Er. Once the latter noticed this, she immediately nodded her hand and rushed towards the Celestial Spirit Lotus.
Seeing this, Xu Qingqing’s expression froze. She immediately rushed over, but after taking a few steps, Mu Chen had appeared in front of her.
“A freshman at the Heavenly Fusion Stage Initial Phase actually dared to obstruct me. Who do you think you are?!” Seeing Mu Chen appear in front of her, Xu Qingqing’s face was filled with rage and arrogance.
While she spoke meanly towards Mu Chen, her attacks, too, were quite vicious. The silver sword within her hand instantly erupted out numerous sword beams as it burst out to Mu Chen’s vital areas.
In response, dark-black Spiritual Energy surged out from Mu Chen’s body. He flicked his fingers and several Spiritual Energy with black flames burst out and dispersed the sword beams.
Mu Chen’s expression remained indifferent as he dealt with the sword beams. Then, he stared at Xu Qingqing’s face that was filled with rage. However, his expression caused the latter to become completely angered. This indifferent expression was obviously displaying how Mu Chen had looked down upon her.
A mere freshman actually dared to look down upon her, Xu Qingqing?!
“I’ll kill you!”
She gritted her teeth and the Spiritual Energy within her body surged out without reservation. At the same time, her body flew up high into the air. Then, she placed her hands together and the silver sword emanated a dazzling light.
A sharp and frosty sword aura erupted out.
At that instant, Su Ling’Er, who was heading towards the Celestial Spirit Lotus, noticed this powerful fluctuation and instantly turned her head around. Her face immediately changed. That crazy girl is trying to kill Mu Chen?
“Nine Heavens Spirit Sword, Spirit Termination!”
In the sky, Xu Qingqing’s cold eyes stared down towards Mu Chen. Her hand swung down and a cold cry resounded out. In that instant, countless individuals noticed a massive sword light tore through the sky as it slashed down in anger.
Under this slash, even the Spiritual Energy waves were torn apart!
A murderous intent surged within this sword light.
