Chapter 161: Madmen Are Indeed Unreasonable
"As the Palace Master, how can I, your teacher, sit by and watch?"
Jiang Yu was also quite the actress; hearing Chu Yao's words, she immediately scolded her.
"Ah... Oh..."
Chu Yao was first shocked, then let out a disappointed "oh" and silently exited the scene.
Some things were not suitable to be said too much.
With Lin Xuan's intelligence, one sentence could completely fool him.
The fact was indeed so.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Lin Xuan instantly mentally filled in the general outline of the matter and dispelled the thought of suspecting Chu Yao.
He firmly believed that he would not misjudge Chu Yao.
Chu Yao looked like an improper and coquettish little vixen, but in reality, she was extremely conservative and had her own principles in doing things.
In addition, Jiang Yu's personality was one that hated evil as if it were a vengeful enemy, and her sense of responsibility was extremely strong; saving Gu Qing was completely within the scope of her duties.
However, Gu Qing had desecrated Jiang Yu.
How could Jiang Yu still take action to save him?
Looking at the magnificent and peerless Jiang Yu, Lin Xuan felt a dull pain in his heart.
Although he had already decided to sever relations with Jiang Yu.
This time seeking a decisive battle with Gu Qing, Lin Xuan had been warning himself that it was not for Jiang Yu.
He killed Gu Qing completely for himself.
Afterwards, even if Jiang Yu was grateful to him for eliminating the scourge Gu Qing, he would not forgive Jiang Yu.
Deep affection that comes too late is cheaper than grass.
He wanted to make Jiang Yu regret her own actions for a lifetime.
However, Lin Xuan never expected that Jiang Yu would actually take action to save Gu Qing.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan said in a cold voice: "Jiang Yu, he desecrated you; why do you still want to help him?"
"It has nothing to do with you."
"..."
Lin Xuan looked at Jiang Yu in disbelief, and an absurd thought popped up in his mind.
Could it be that Jiang Yu had moved her heart for Gu Qing?
"Master, save me." Su Yang let out a miserable scream, looking at Lin Xuan with eyes full of fear.
His Divine Soul was being pinched in Gu Qing's hand, twisting and deforming for a while.
Lin Xuan came back to his senses, looked at Su Yang, then looked at Jiang Yu, saying word by word: "Being fellow disciples of the Star Temple, he has already lost; there is no need to kill him to the last, right?"
"This is a life-and-death duel between you; it has nothing to do with me." Jiang Yu's tone was cold.
"You have changed..."
Anger rose from Lin Xuan's heart, veins popped out on his forehead, and he looked at her with disappointed eyes.
Although it was a life-and-death decisive battle, the victory and defeat had already been decided; Jiang Yu could completely save a life.
To think he just felt that Jiang Yu was kind-hearted and had a strong sense of responsibility.
Once it involved Gu Qing, she immediately showed partiality and protection.
Jiang Yu had indeed fallen.
She was addicted to the flowery words of this pretty boy Gu Qing.
But Gu Qing was not a good person; approaching Jiang Yu was only coveting her power and beauty.
When she had no utilization value, she would definitely be kicked away by Gu Qing.
However... if Jiang Yu was cheated of wealth and body, what did it have to do with him?
Lin Xuan took a deep breath and spoke indifferently: "What a 'nothing to do with you'."
"Jiang Yu, I did not expect you to be so heartless. From today on, kindness and justice between you and me are severed."
"..."
What friendship do we have?
Jiang Yu was speechless.
She could not be bothered to pay attention to a dying person.
"Jiang Yu, I saved you from the mouth of the Ice Flood Dragon back then; I can be considered to have the grace of saving your life, right?"
Lin Xuan gazed at her with an indifferent expression and said word by word: "As long as you make Gu Qing let Su Yang go, we will write it off."
"..."
Jiang Yu was speechless to the extreme, wanting to speak but stopping.
Jiang Yu strongly suspected that Lin Xuan was a self-righteous and paranoid madman.
Could one reason with such a madman?
Forget it, it wouldn't make sense.
Jiang Yu widened the distance from him and came in front of Gu Qing.
A pair of beautiful eyes looked at Gu Qing's peerless divine face, washing her eyes and incidentally washing her brain.
Mn, the little drama queen was indeed right; after looking for a while, her unbeautiful mood instantly became beautiful.
Gu Qing blinked, as if saying, what are you looking at me for?
Hurry up and go kill Lin Xuan.
"The time has not arrived yet, and moreover, why should I help you?" Jiang Yu shook her head slightly.
"Does killing people still require looking at the timing?"
Gu Qing automatically ignored the second half of Jiang Yu's sentence and expressed incomprehension; perhaps this was the style of a big shot.
After checking Su Yang's memories once, Gu Qing crushed him to death with one hand.
Since Lin Xuan dared not take action, torturing Su Yang further was useless.
It was better to send Su Yang to the west earlier.
"Gu Qing..."
Lin Xuan growled through gritted teeth, his face hideous and terrifying, resembling an Asura Killing God.
"Is there a matter?" Gu Qing glanced at him, his tone disdainful.
"Elder Lin Xuan, the life-and-death duel was requested by you; could it be that you cannot afford to lose?"
Lin Xuan: ...
Damn it, he should not have spoken to Gu Qing. Not a single word Gu Qing said was pleasing to his ears.
Lin Xuan's gaze fell upon Jiang Yu, and he hated her thoroughly. Even using the grace of saving her life could not exchange for a single moment of softheartedness from Jiang Yu.
A woman who had a change of heart was indeed heartless enough. She did not remember at all that back then, in order to save her, he had a narrow escape from death and almost lost his life in the mouth of the Ice Flood Dragon.
However, how did Jiang Yu repay him? She directly returned kindness with enmity, helping Gu Qing to slaughter his disciple.
The more Lin Xuan thought about it, the colder his heart became. Had he known earlier that Jiang Yu was so cold and ruthless, he should not have saved her back then and let her die in the mouth of the Ice Flood Dragon.
"Master, I..."
Shi Xuan felt a chill in his heart as he watched, and a wave of fear rushed straight to the top of his skull. The invincible Senior Brother in his mind, who should have had an infinitely brilliant and resplendent life, was easily beheaded by Gu Qing.
His Divine Soul was destroyed, never to be reincarnated. Gu Qing's power simply exceeded his imagination.
Luo Li was his Junior Sister, and the two came from the same lineage. Luo Li would not be as terrifying as Gu Qing, right?
Then should he still fight a life-and-death battle with Luo Li? At this moment, Shi Xuan, who possessed an Invincible Dao Heart, wavered in his heart; his Invincible Dao Heart had a tear ripped into it.
"Shi Xuan, the life-and-death contract has been signed; it is too late to regret now."
Luo Li took in the changes in expression of the master and disciple, and immediately sneered aloud.
Shi Xuan took a deep breath to calm his mood and said coldly: "It is still unknown who will emerge the winner; aren't you being a bit too confident?"
Since it could not be avoided, then let's fight. He did not believe that Luo Li was also as unfathomable as Gu Qing.
He possessed the Supreme Bone and Double Pupils; he did not believe he could not defeat Luo Li.
"Heh, is that so? Then let us begin."
Luo Li sneered. With a spread of her hand, the Phoenix Nirvana Spear appeared in her grasp.
Boom!
A heaven-shaking explosion rang out in the void. Luo Li held the long spear, her three thousand strands of black hair flying in the wind; she was peerlessly magnificent, resembling an invincible female War God.
The Phoenix Nirvana Spear was like a phoenix, carrying a boundless sea of fire to incinerate the firmament. The spear intent was unstoppable, exuding a peerless sharpness that could pierce through everything, blasting Shi Xuan's Saint Sword away with the force of splitting bamboo, including Shi Xuan's protective great bell.
"Another monster..."
Shi Xuan fled in a sorry state, his eyes filled with despair. He was the Double Pupil user known as invincible, and he even had an additional Supreme Bone.
However, at Luo Li's hands, he could not withstand a single blow. What bullshit about seeing through the enemy's flaws?
With divine abilities bombarding over eagerly like a blanket, where were the flaws to speak of? Shi Xuan wanted to use the Double Pupils to cast illusion divine abilities, but they had absolutely no effect on Luo Li.
For this situation to occur, there was only one possibility: Luo Li's Divine Soul was powerful beyond his imagination. His Double Pupils had no scope for their abilities.
However, having said that, what made the Double Pupils powerful was not the ocular divine abilities, but that the possessor of the Double Pupils would inevitably possess unparalleled comprehension. Any Dao technique or divine ability could be easily mastered without any bottlenecks to speak of.
Thus, Shi Xuan had cultivated multiple God-level cultivation techniques, dozens of divine abilities, and several peerless great divine abilities. His combat power could not be said to be weak.
However, even with all his means exhausted, he was still not an enemy who could last one round against Luo Li. Shi Xuan despaired the more he thought about it.
How could such a monster exist in the world? One must know that before meeting Gu Qing and Luo Li, he was an existence who swept through his peers invincibly.
Heaven's Chosens and monsters of the same realm could not even withstand a single move from him; it was an absolute crush of strength. Over time, Shi Xuan developed an arrogant heart, and an Invincible Dao Heart was naturally born.
He believed that the only one who could compete with him was his Senior Brother, and his Master was the goal he would chase for his entire life. Shi Xuan longed for an infinitely brilliant future and was determined to ascend to the peak of the Great Dao.
However, thoughts were ultimately just thoughts, and they shattered with a bang at this moment. The strength of Gu Qing and Luo Li made him recognize reality and understand what it meant that there are people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens.
"Squelch!"
A spear pierced through Shi Xuan's chest. Luo Li lifted him up, her expression disdainful and domineering.
"Your strength is not bad." Luo Li said sincerely.
Shi Xuan was truly very strong. If it were before she received the precious liquid gifted by Gu Qing, the outcome would have been hard to predict.
"I am unwilling to accept this."
Shi Xuan's eyes were filled with unwillingness. He had peerless aptitude and peerless cultivation techniques and divine abilities; his life was destined to be brilliant and resplendent, proving the Dao for immortality and freedom.
And his Senior Brother was the same.
"So what if you are unwilling?"
Luo Li did not mock him but replied seriously. Immediately after, she took action to dig out his Double Pupils and Supreme Bone, then searched his soul.
"Stop."
Lin Xuan could not bear it anymore. His facial features were hideous like an evil ghost, and the killing intent around his body rushed straight to the clouds.
Luo Li directly ignored Lin Xuan's impotent rage. With a twirl of the long spear in her hand, Shi Xuan's physical body instantly turned into fine powder.
His Divine Soul was destroyed, never to be reincarnated for all eternity.
"You people... very good."
"Jiang Yu, had I known earlier that you would return kindness with enmity, I should not have saved you back then. I hate this..." Lin Xuan howled at the sky, his eyes crimson red.
Jiang Yu: "..."
A madman was indeed unreasonable, immersed in his own concepts and unable to extricate himself.
