"Buzz"
Originally, the Golden Armor Knights were besieged by countless powerful warriors and the situation was critical. The moment Lu Qingshuang donned the pale yellow battle armor, an ancient, vast pressure instantly spread out.
The aura of the Primordial Divine Emperor pressed down on the heavens, making one's soul tremble. At that moment, Lu Qingshuang felt as if possessed by the Primordial Divine Emperor, and thrust out her spear.
"Boom!"
The
golden divine radiance pierced the sky. The Nine Veins Celestial Saint, who had previously fought fiercely with Lu Qingshuang, was struck by a golden light and instantly turned to nothingness. The golden light extended to the ends of heaven and earth, and wherever it passed, whether mountains or seas of people, all vanished into nothingness.
A forbidden zone of life was created across the battlefield; the Nine Veins Heavenly Saint was utterly powerless against her.
"What a fierce armor."
Although Long Chen knew the armor was supported by formations and protected by the Holy Spirit, making it incredibly powerful, he hadn't expected that Lu Qingshuang's casual strike would possess such terrifying power.
"That is a powerful Divine Emperor Sacred Armor. Every rune is infused with the blessings of their ancestors.
This girl has only just gained the recognition of that armor and hasn't yet been recognized as a master. At most, she can only exert about ten percent of her power." Qiankun Cauldron said.
"Ten percent?"
Long Chen was shocked. At that moment, his heart was stirred, and he even regretted giving the armor to Lu Qingshuang. If it had been given to Guo Ran, he might have been able to tame the armor.
"This strike contains the power of a Divine Emperor, equivalent to a casual strike from a first-rank Divine Emperor of that era." Qiankun Cauldron said.
"A casual strike from a first-rank Divine Emperor?" Long Chen's mouth dropped open.
"Then I ...."
"That's right, you have a second-rank Divine Emperor-level puppet in your hand. Now, you should know how strong your puppet is, right?" Qiankun Cauldron said.
Now that he had a comparison, Long Chen nodded like a chick sucking rice. A first-rank Divine Emperor could wield such terrifying power with a casual strike—so wouldn't the power of a second-rank Divine Emperor be enough to shatter this Heavenly Vein Profound Realm?
"But don't get arrogant. In the Tianmai Profound Realm, there are countless treasures of the Azure Yellow Battle Armor.
If this girl can make this armor recognize her as its master, she can unleash at least about thirty percent of its power. By then, she would be almost equivalent to a first-rank Divine Emperor in ancient times." The Qiankun Cauldron reminded them.
"Rumble rumble...
Lu Qingshuang slayed the Nine Veins Heavenly Saint with a single strike, her momentum shaking the heavens. Everyone knew the situation was lost. At this moment, she was invincible. Continuing to cling was a way to live. Everyone immediately fled the battlefield, their legs swinging like wheels, and the endless crowd receded like a tide.
Lu Qingshuang couldn't be bothered to chase after them, leading the Golden Armored Knights and riding toward Long Chen.
"Whew."
Lu Qingshuang took off her helmet, revealing a delicate face. Long Chen hadn't expected that beneath this fierce armor, such a delicate face was hidden.
She was very beautiful, with two dimples on her face. When she looked at Long Chen, she wore a smile—a gentle, pure young girl, completely unlike her previous decisive and decisive temperament.
"Thank you. I, Lu Qingshuang, have made a note of this favor. If you need any help, just say the word. Even if it costs me to pieces, I will do it for you." Lu Qingshuang held her helmet in her left hand, held her spear horizontally across her horse in her right, lowered her head slightly, and bowed to Long Chen.
"This girl looks very deceptive and a bit shrewd." Long Chen looked at Lu Qingshuang and couldn't help but think to himself.
This Lu Qingshuang is a bit scheming—previously in the name of the Shengming Divine Sect, now she owes favors in her own name.
Long Chen looked at Lu Qingshuang with a half-smile. Lu Qingshuang's face gradually flushed, and Long Chen's eyes were bright and deep, as if they could perceive all the secrets of heaven and earth.
Just as Long Chen thought, she had indeed made a small move, because if she got involved in the Shengming Divine Sect, she would owe them a huge favor.
Earlier, in her excitement, she hadn't thought much and directly dragged the Shengming Divine Sect into it. Now, she secretly regretted it and tried to make amends in her own name.
Actually, she didn't mean anything bad, nor was she trying to shirk responsibility. If it were a favor she owed, she could pay it with her life. But when the sect owes favors, they only care about interests, not sentiments. If the sect refuses to acknowledge the favor because it doesn't align with interests, she'll be even more embarrassed.
At this moment, she didn't dare meet Long Chen's eyes, because from the mischievous smile on his face, she could tell that Long Chen had already seen through everything.
"Stop talking about useless things. I'm not interested in the Shengming Divine Sect, nor in favor of favors. You just need to keep your promise." Long Chen chuckled.
Lu Qingshuang instantly blushed deeply. She was an invincible prodigy who valued dignity above her own life. How could she say those three words?
Most importantly, those three words were too cheesy and improper. But if she didn't say them, she would be seen as a dishonest villain. Lu Qingshuang's pretty face was as red as an apple.
"Hey, even though you helped us, don't go too far. Even without you, we could still get the Canghuang Battle Armor in the end." A golden-armored knight beside Lu Qingshuang stepped forward and said coldly.
However, when he said this, he actually felt a bit guilty. There were countless powerful figures present, and many others had not yet fully unleashed their power, all waiting for an opportunity.
If it weren't for Long Chen, they would still have a chance. But who can guarantee that among so many powerful beings, no one possesses a rare treasure capable of suppressing the Canghuang Battle Armor?
Long Chen shrugged noncommittally, stretched lazily, brushed the dust off his clothes, and then turned to leave.
"Wait a moment... "Alright..."
Lu Qingshuang saw Long Chen about to leave and hurriedly called out to him. She didn't want to break her promise, but no matter what, she couldn't say those two words.
Lu Qingshuang gritted her teeth: "This pale yellow armor belongs to our Golden Armor Knight Order's commander, Yue Changfeng. His strength is more than ten times mine. He is a peerless hero; he will definitely repay this favor."
Long Chen was taken aback. When he saw Lu Qingshuang mention Yue Changfeng, her eyes were full of pride and admiration, and he immediately understood what was happening.
It seemed that Lu Qingshuang had feelings for Yue Changfeng, and that Yue Changfeng was ten times stronger than hers? That was a bit scary, wasn't it? He wasn't sure if what she said was true or not.
"What I said before was just a joke, don't take it seriously. I don't need any favors from you. Goodbye!" After speaking, Long Chen waved his hand and walked off into the distance.
"I will definitely repay this favor." Lu Qingshuang called out.
"If you really want to pay it back, remember to lend a helping hand when you see kind-hearted humans being bullied. Consider it repaying my favor." After Long Chen finished speaking, the figure had already disappeared.
Looking in the direction Long Chen disappeared, Lu Qingshuang's face was complicated. Although Long Chen said it as a joke, to her, she had indeed broken her word.
At the same time, she also knew that the reason Long Chen helped her was partly because everyone had itOn one side, it's just a brief encounter; on the other hand, since we're all human, it's only natural for us to help each other.
But should the human race really help each other? Just now, those human powerhouses attacked fiercer than anyone else.
However, Long Chen emphasized that the kind human was the kind of human, meaning he believed she was kind, which is why he helped her.
"Captain Qingshuang, don't pay attention to this strange person. Let's quickly regroup with Commander Changfeng. With the Canghuang Battle Armor, the Tianmai Profound Realm will be our domain from now on." The golden-armored knight who had spoken up for her earlier said, his voice full of pride.
"Let's go."
Lu Qingshuang looked in the direction Long Chen had left, a complex expression appearing on her face. In the end, she sighed and disappeared with the others.
