Xuan Shan felt this wouldn't do. If he didn't do something, he would face a three-on-one situation, which was too passive. He might not even be able to defeat one of them, let alone three combined...
Just as he was deep in thought, Tuoba San spoke up, retorting to Murong Chui.
"I don't like teaming up with others to bully people. Only my father is worthy to fight alongside me in this world..."
These words infuriated Murong Chui, but he dared not offend Tuoba San. If he became enemies with Tuoba San, it would mean that the two sides would definitely fight, making it even more impossible to get the Blood Explosion Stone back…
So he endured the humiliation...
This relieved Xuan Shan greatly, but the fact that Murong Chui didn't join the fight against him didn't mean he was safe; Liu Lingxian was still there...
What if three people take turns attacking him?
With his not-so-bright mind, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed into his head: to shift the blame eastward…
He decided to give the Blood-Exploding Stone to Liu Lingxian. Murong Chui would definitely try to snatch it, and regardless of who won between the two, there wouldn't be a three-on-one situation...
Thinking of this, Xuan Shan immediately appeared in front of Liu Lingxian, and to everyone's astonishment, he placed the Blood Explosion Stone directly into Liu Lingxian's hand...
"Xuanshan, have you gone mad?"
Murong Chui shouted angrily…
"What I can't have, you can't have either..."
Xuanshan retorted with great pride…
"Junior Sister Xian'er... no, Senior Sister Xian'er, could you please give me the Blood Explosion Stone? It's mine..."
After her initial shock, Liu Lingxian was overjoyed. She never expected that she would obtain a Blood-Exploding Stone just by watching the excitement...
Before she could recover from her elation, she heard words that dampened Murong Chui's spirits...
"If you call it, will it answer?"
Liu Lingxian remembered the words I had used to tease Ming Chi, and immediately used them to repeat them...
Murong Chui opened his mouth, thinking to himself, "How can you expect an inanimate object to respond?"
"Junior Sister Xian'er, if you don't return the Blood-Exploding Stone to me, I'll have no choice but to take it by force. If that damages the harmony between our two sects, then it will be your responsibility..."
Murong Chui's words caused Liu Lingxian's expression to change slightly. The other party was from the Qingyun Sect, which, in terms of sect strength, was definitely the top of the nine major sects...
Making enemies with such a sect is definitely not a wise choice. However, Murong Chui is just a disciple and cannot represent the attitude of the Qingyun Sect as a whole...
Both are major sects and are naturally competitors, so minor frictions are not unusual. To maintain good relations, they usually try to minimize or eliminate such conflicts.
"The Blood Explosion Stone belongs to Xuanshan. Xuanshan has placed it in my hands, so it is mine. If you make a move now, you are stealing my things. Do you want to bear the crime of bullying your fellow practitioners?"
"Given my status, do you think my father wouldn't cause trouble at the Qingyun Sect? You should know better than me what the consequences will be..."
Liu Lingxian's words made Murong Chui's face turn ugly. If the two were fighting over something unclaimed, it would be understandable, and any fight would be forgivable. But now he was trying to snatch something from Liu Lingxian, which changed the nature of the situation...
Murong Chui lowered his gaze, his eyes filled with struggle. Faced with the Blood-Exploding Stone, a treasure that could change his life, he couldn't possibly give up just because of a few words from Liu Lingxian...
After a long internal struggle, he decided to take action…
"Junior Sister Xian'er, I've offended you..."
Murong Chui held his long sword, pointing it at Liu Lingxian, clearly ready to attack...
Seeing that a peaceful resolution was not possible, Liu Lingxian's gaze also became serious...
The opponent is a powerhouse ranked eleventh on the Prodigy Ranking; their strength should not be underestimated…
Liu Lingxian waved her right hand, and five puppets appeared before her. These five puppets were all different colors and emanated different auras of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each of these five puppets was only at the Martial Emperor level.
However, when these five puppets attack together, they can form a combined attack formation, utilizing the principles of mutual restraint and generation among the five elements to utterly crush the Martial Saint...
Previously, with Granny Saint Puppet by her side, she didn't have many opportunities to use the Five Elements Puppets. Now, facing the enemy alone, although she was rusty, the excitement in her heart was impossible to suppress...
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Tuoba San withdrew his gaze and looked at Xuanshan with a half-smile...
"I already told you, you're going to be my father's mount..."
Tuoba San spoke calmly, as if stating a fact…
Xuan Shan was so angry his nose almost twisted out of shape. He glared at Tuoba San and said...
"Are you sick? Your father is sick too. I am the pride of Tai Shi Demon Mountain. You want me to be a mount for an ordinary person with no cultivation? This is an insult to me, do you understand?"
"Don't even mention that I would rather die than comply. Even if I dared to agree, the Tai Shi Demon Mountain would never allow it. You don't want to offend the Tai Shi Demon Mountain, do you?"
Hearing the other party's firm words, Tuoba San nodded and said...
"You may be ugly, but you're quite tough..."
Holy crap...
Xuan Shan immediately became furious. "Can we not talk about being ugly? My species is a dragon-patterned turtle. Being ugly is a family trait. What does it have to do with me?"
"Enough... How dare a mere Emperor-level expert humiliate me? Die!"
Xuan Shan attacked with resentment, feeling that the world was too unkind to him. When he grew to his full size, no one called him handsome, but when he transformed into a human, everyone called him ugly...
The most hateful one is Murong Chui; just looking at his face makes me want to vomit. It's so damn humiliating...
Tuoba San couldn't help but chuckle as he watched the tortoise shell fly towards him, but he still drew his longsword and used his Emperor-level strength to fight against Xuan Shan's power...
Xuan Shan truly lived up to his reputation as the fifteenth-ranked genius on the Prodigy Ranking. When facing Murong Chui, he could only defend, but against Tuoba San, an Emperor-level expert, he actually managed to hold his own for a time…
Tuoba San was increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. He hadn't expected the prodigy of the Central Continent to be so powerful, capable of fighting him to a standstill...
Completely forgetting that he was still an Emperor-level being, just how astonishing was his combat power...?
Bang bang bang…
The two battlefields were locked in a fierce and evenly matched struggle. Liu Lingxian held a slight advantage with her Five Elements Puppets, but victory was still uncertain. Moreover, she didn't know what trump cards Murong Chui had up his sleeve, making the final outcome difficult to predict...
Tuoba San became increasingly frustrated as the fight progressed. He realized that Xuan Shan's shell was incredibly thick, and even with his attack power, he couldn't easily break through his defenses...
He understood Murong Chui's feelings just now, but that didn't mean he was helpless. After all, he possessed a sealing stone that others didn't have. This thing was not only incredibly hard, but its offensive power was also astonishing...
