Bai Shishi finally met Ku Wuya in this round. Although everyone knew they would meet sooner or later, now that the outcome had come, everyone's hearts still skipped a beat.
Long Chen glanced at his nameplate. Unfortunately, it wasn't Gui Yun. As soon as he saw the name, the name immediately dimmed. Clearly, the other party had given up upon seeing it was Long Chen.
Meanwhile, above the void, the list of opponents appeared. Long Chen advanced directly to the semifinals, Bai Shishi faced Ku Wuya, and Gui Yun faced Die Wu. The one named Die Wu was the woman with a stunning figure whose background was unknown.
The other team was just a bystander; no one cared about them. Although their power was strong, they were nowhere near comparable to people like Ku Wuya or Gui Yun. Their journey here wasn't about strength, but about luck.
When the two saw the list of opponents come out, they whispered privately for a while, then one of them admitted defeat and handed over the semifinal spot to the other person. It's unclear if that person had promised the other some kind of benefit.
But even if that person made it to the semifinals, it would end there. In the next match, he didn't even dare to play; all he wanted was a ranking.
In the semifinals, two opponents had already conceded; the remaining battles were between Bai Shishi and Ku Wuya, Die Wu and Gui Yun.
Bai Shishi's expression was calm, showing no sign of nervousness, but the others were filled with worry. After all, that Kuniya was basically a monster, terrifying.
Everyone returned to the base to rest. Bai Shishi's mother called her into a room alone. No one knew what they talked about, and they didn't come out all day.
The next day, everyone returned to the viewing platform. This time, there was no cheering, replaced only the pressure of an impending storm and the wind filling the tower. The feeling was almost breathless.
Everyone watched nervously at Bai Shishi and Die Wu. These two peerless beauties were about to face off against two terrifying monsters, and they were filled with worry.
The disciples of Lingxiao Academy clenched their fists, not daring to breathe loudly. They desperately hoped Bai Shishi would win, afraid that speaking up would affect her.
Everyone had arrived, but there was still some time before it began. All eyes turned to Ku Wuya, Gui Yun, Bai Shishi, and Die Wu.
Ku Wuya was tall and sat there like a small mountain. His eyes were closed, but the aura he exuded was terrifying.
Today, Gui Yun was wearing a black cloak that covered most of his face—the standard attire for Blood Kill Hall disciples. In today's battle, he actually wore this outfit, leaving people baffled.
Bai Shishi sat cross-legged in the arena like a goddess statue, never saying a word from beginning to end.
Suddenly, the powerful figures present were thrown into a commotion. The woman named Die Wu abruptly stood up and headed straight for a corner of the viewing platform. To everyone's surprise, her direction seemed to be directed toward Long Chen.
Amid countless astonished gazes, Die Wu walked up to Long Chen. Long Chen was taken aback:
"Miss Die Wu, is there something you need?"
Not only was Long Chen stunned, but Bai Shishi also stopped meditating and couldn't help but look at the graceful, beautiful woman. Luo Bing, Luo Xue, and the others also stood up, not knowing what Die Wu was doing.
After all, since Die Wu had met her, she hadn't spoken to anyone, nor had any interaction with them. How could she suddenly come here?
Die Wu gave Long Chen a deep look, then slowly knelt on one knee, took Long Chen's hand, and gently kissed the back of his hand with her cherry lips: "
Warrior blessed by the Butterfly Spirit Clan. If I die, please help me fulfill my wish and slay the villain."
"You..."
Long Chen was startled. The woman actually knew that the Butterfly Spirit Clan's blessing mark was on the back of his hand.
Long Chen was shocked, and Bai Shishi and the others were even more stunned, their mouths agape, jade hands covering their cherry lips, unable to believe their eyes. Such a powerful woman actually knelt on one knee before Long Chen and performed a kissing gesture. What on earth was going on?
On the viewing platform, everyone was shocked and deeply jealous of Long Chen. This indescribably beautiful woman was actually showing such intimate gestures toward him.
"Buzz!"
At that moment, the arena opened. Die Wu gave Long Chen a deep look, then moved and stepped into the arena. In Long Chen's palm, her unique fragrance still lingered.
Long Chen hadn't yet understood what was happening when Die Wu had already entered the arena, and Gui Yun, who was opposite her, also appeared.
Gui Yun looked at Die Wu and said calmly, "Are you here for revenge?" "
Die Wu said coldly, "To obtain the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, you cruelly extracted the souls of the Butterfly Spirit clan, causing her endless pain before she died."
The Butterfly Spirit Clan is naturally kind and never resents anyone. But as her companion flower spirit, I am not as kind as she is. I want revenge, and I will use your life to honor her heroic spirit. Hearing
this, the powerful figures present erupted in an uproar. The Butterfly Spirit Clan is an extremely kind race; they never fight with others, and even if killed, they hold grudges or seek revenge.
The Butterfly Spirit Clan never provokes anyone; they only help others and will never harm them. If someone helps them, they will remember that person for a lifetime.
Butterfly spirit beings are extremely rare. Of course, if someone encounters them, they wouldn't hurt them, because they are so kind that it's hard to bear to hurt them.
Yet Gui Yun had killed a butterfly spirit, and it was a cruel killing, which instantly ignited the fury of countless people.
"On the path of cultivation, the strong rule, survival of the fittest, everything is just a stepping stone for the strong. If I ascend to immortality, I will naturally bestow blessings upon all beings. Her death is also a worthy death. What fault have I done?" Gui Yun curled his lips, his face twitching as he said disdainfully.
"Shut up! To achieve immortality, you can trample on other people's lives at will? Do you know the true meaning of life? Die
Wu shouted loudly. With a gesture of her jade hand, the entire arena suddenly changed. Birds sang and flowers bloomed, green grass stretched on to the horizon, small rivers rushed and water babbled, and beautiful butterflies fluttered among the flowers.
One of the young butterflies was playing around a beautiful flower when suddenly the flower grew larger, and a little girl appeared inside. The little butterfly then transformed into a girl's appearance. The two girls held hands, running back and forth on the grass, laughing and laughing. Their innocent laughter was enough to make people forget the noise of the mortal world and be enchanted by that carefree world.
The scene unfolds as the two little girls grow day by day. At their foreheads, identical symbols appear—the girl transformed from the flower is Die Wu. In that instant, people immediately understand Die Wu's origin.
Suddenly, the scene shifted: a woman with butterfly wings on her back was tied to an altar, wailing in pain. Chains passed through her body, and at the end of the chain, she was gripped by a large, plump hand.
Upon seeing that scene, killing intent instantly flashed in Long Chen's eyes. Not only him, but everyone present was instantly enraged:
"Beast!"
