"That's why Chen Shuyao died, and Lu Qianlan was seriously injured..."
"How did Lu Qianlan survive? She doesn't look injured at all."
"It is said that Lu Qianlan was saved by a mysterious senior master and received instruction from that senior master, which is why she became so powerful."
"Really?"
The disciples of the Divine Dragon Cult below the stage were all discussing among themselves, while the protector on the stage changed his expression slightly, but ultimately did not intervene to stop it.
The Divine Dragon Dharma Assembly was not a small-scale sparring match, but a real, fierce battle.
Every year, the Divine Dragon Cult's Divine Dragon Dharma Assembly results in deaths and injuries.
Therefore, it's normal for Lu Qianlan to kill Chen Gang, or for Chen Gang to kill Lu Qianlan.
This is why Lu Qianlan didn't rush to seek revenge on Li Shenglong after returning to the Divine Dragon Sect.
Within the Divine Dragon Sect's mountain gates, indiscriminate killing is severely punished.
The Divine Dragon Dharma Assembly was the opportunity that Lu Qianlan had been waiting for. Killing his opponent at the assembly would be perfectly in accordance with the rules, and he would not have to accept any punishment!
Of course, you must strike first and kill your opponent before they surrender.
If an opponent concedes defeat, the guardians on the stage will protect that person, and attempting to attack them again would be against the rules.
Bang!
Chen Gang swung his axe down again, but just like before, it missed Lu Qianlan.
Lu Qianlan's movements were incredibly agile, like a nimble seagull. Although Chen Gang's attacks were powerful, they couldn't touch Lu Qianlan.
"You want revenge? If you're so capable, then don't hide!" Chen Gang roared.
"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!"
Lu Qianlan said coldly, suddenly raising her hands.
The next moment, thousands upon thousands of black willow branches shot out from Lu Qianlan's sleeves, heading straight for Chen Gang.
Chen Gang's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly swung his axe to chop down the dark willow branches released by Lu Qianlan.
But he struggled for only a moment, cutting off a dozen or so willow branches, before being entangled by even more willow branches.
Moreover, these willow branches did not simply entangle him; the moment they bound him, they pierced deep into his body, leaving wound after wound on his body, and frantically draining his true energy!
Seeing this, all the disciples of the Divine Dragon Cult below the stage turned pale with fright.
"My God, Lu Qianlan has become so powerful?"
"What kind of martial art is this?"
"It feels almost inhuman!"
The vast majority of the Divine Dragon Sect disciples below the stage looked at Lu Qianlan with awe.
Li Shenglong, standing in the crowd, looked extremely grim.
Chen Gang was sent out to take Lu Qianlan's place, and also to test her.
However, Chen Gang was only at the early stage of the Separation and Union Realm, and he couldn't really test Lu Qianlan's true strength. His death so quickly made Li Shenglong furious.
"Useless thing!"
Li Shenglong gritted his teeth and cursed, his face full of resentment.
On the other side, Jiang Yinglong also looked at Lu Qianlan on the stage, a thoughtful expression on his face.
"It seems you've had quite an adventure," Jiang Yinglong remarked.
On the arena, the guardian seemed unable to bear it any longer. After coughing, he said to Lu Qianlan, "You can stop now. Chen Gang has already lost."
"Did he lose? I didn't hear him admit defeat," Lu Qianlan said coldly.
“But he is now powerless to resist,” the protector said again.
Lu Qianlan said without hesitation, "Guardian, you'd better not be mistaken. There are only two conditions for determining the winner of our Divine Dragon Dharma Assembly: one is that the disciple who goes on stage voluntarily admits defeat, and the other is that one of them jumps off the stage or dies."
“Now that Chen Gang has neither admitted defeat nor jumped off the stage, I can only assume that he still wants to continue fighting me,” Lu Qianlan said.
The protector's face showed a hint of anger.
But Lu Qianlan was right, and he couldn't find any way to refute her, so he had no choice but to give up.
Chen Gang, who was wrapped up in willow branches like a rice dumpling, was in utter despair.
He wanted to admit defeat, but the problem was that his whole body was covered in willow branches, so he couldn't even speak!
As for jumping off the ring, that's out of the question.
Right now, he can probably only move his two eyeballs; he can't move anywhere else on his body.
It would be a miracle if he could jump off the ring!
"Lu Qianlan really wanted to kill me, he really wanted my life..."
Chen Gang thought to himself, a deep sense of fear rising within him.
At this moment, Chen Gang truly began to regret it.
He regretted that he had killed Chen Shuyao with Li Shenglong and Jia Yang, and regretted that he had been stubborn and hadn't admitted defeat.
It's a pity that I only regret it now; it's too late!
The next moment, all the willow branches exploded.
Chen Gang's body was blown to pieces in an instant, leaving not even bone fragments.
"Guardian, you may announce the results now."
Lu Qianlan retrieved the other willow branches, turned to look at the Divine Dragon Sect protector, and said.
The Divine Dragon Cult protector's expression changed several times before he finally announced loudly, "Lu Qianlan wins this round!"
Lu Qianlan jumped off the stage with satisfaction and returned to Ye Feng and Chen Nianzhu's side.
Chen Nianzhu looked at Lu Qianlan with a pale face and said, "You actually killed Chen Gang?"
"Chen Gang is my enemy, I must kill him!" Lu Qianlan said emphatically.
Chen Nianzhu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Could the rumors be true? Were you and Chen Shuyao really attacked by Li Shenglong, Chen Gang, and Jia Yang in that valley?"
Lu Qianlan did not explain, after all, there were many people here and it was inconvenient to say more about some things.
The other disciples around Lu Qianlan also looked over at this moment, their expressions complicated, their eyes filled with curiosity and suspicion.
After all, everyone present had witnessed Lu Qianlan killing Chen Gang, so of course they would be afraid of Lu Qianlan.
"Chen Houfei! Qin Menglu!"
A new game has begun.
Night Wind was completely unaware that the person the Dharma Protector was chanting for was him.
"Senior Ye, it's your turn to go on stage. You're impersonating Chen Houfei right now," Lu Qianlan reminded him telepathically.
Night Breeze suddenly realized what was going on, then smiled and nodded before leaping onto the stage.
Standing on the arena, looking at the female warrior gracefully stepping onto the stage opposite him, Ye Feng said, "You should just admit defeat."
Qin Menglu looked extremely distressed.
She was only at the early stage of the Separation and Union Realm, but she encountered Chen Houfei, who was at the eighth level of the Separation and Union Realm. How could she possibly laugh?
Of course, Ye Feng is not actually at the eighth level of the Separation and Union Realm. It's just that Chen Houfei's strength is at the eighth level of the Separation and Union Realm, and now Ye Feng has taken over Chen Houfei's identity, so Qin Menglu would think that way in her heart.
