Baili Die was truly confused.
After so many years of getting to know each other, she was willing to believe in Dongfang Xiao.
However, Liu Chen's words, one by one, seemed to strike at his heart like the Great Dao, directly flooding into the depths of his mind.
She forced herself not to think about it, much less to look at it.
But Baili Die really didn't know how to refute it.
The situation inside the house is currently very chaotic.
Inside Dongfang Xiao's room, there was an energy shield that completely blocked out the outside world and had a defensive power far exceeding that of the ninth rank.
However, Liu Chen set up several more layers of formations inside the defensive shield.
Dongfang Xiao is powerful, but the combination of multiple formations makes him vulnerable.
Even with his efforts, he was unable to break through the formation in a short time.
Meanwhile, things continued as usual outside, with the people at the Superpower Headquarters working diligently and methodically.
No one realized that a battle was taking place that was enough to shake the entire human race.
The crimson dragon that Dongfang Xiao transformed into was vastly different from the beast-like abilities of others.
His beast form was only about ten feet in size.
This eliminated Liu Chen's advantage in using the Xuan Tian Zhan Ling Sword to quickly kill the enemy.
Moreover, its special ability is a dual-attribute ability of water and fire.
Not only does it possess considerable destructive power, but its water-attribute mystic energy also allows it to quickly recover from injuries.
He controlled countless golden arrows, aiming them at the east and swarming towards Dongfangxiao.
With a barrage of arrows, even a casually spat energy cannon is enough to annihilate a mid-stage ninth-tier alien beast.
It was utterly unstoppable, such a barrage of golden arrows.
Golden arrows crackled and clattered as they relentlessly struck the scales.
The crimson scales were struck with sparks, but they failed to break through his defenses.
Dongfang Xiaolong swept his tail across, knocking down most of the rain of arrows.
He frantically charged through the formation, trying to break through several layers of it.
However, Liu Chen had set up the God-Sealing Formation and the Hundred Fires Burning Heaven Formation.
The multiple layers of formations are combined in a way that is specifically designed to counter him.
In particular, the defensive capabilities of this formation far surpass those of other formations.
Dongfang Xiao's several unsuccessful attempts to charge forward showed a change in his demeanor, unlike his previous irritability.
"Liu Chen, we have no past grudges or recent grievances."
"Just like when I attacked you, we could easily shake hands and make peace. Do we really want it to come to a life-or-death situation?"
Seeing that he seemed inclined to make peace, Baili Die opened her mouth, wanting to speak up for him.
When she met Liu Chen's icy gaze, she silently swallowed her words back.
She's a smart woman; in this situation, it's best to remain silent.
Moreover, she also saw through Dongfang Xiao's thoughts.
Liu Chen nodded in satisfaction.
In Tianfu City, the only person he found somewhat agreeable was Baili Die.
"Dongfang Xiao, don't say things that are meaningless."
You're afraid, afraid that I'll become stronger than you.
Since embarking on the path of cultivation, his cultivation level has soared.
Dongfang Xiao must know him, and his extraordinary qualities.
Therefore, logically and emotionally, since this guy is my enemy, he will definitely want to kill me as quickly as possible to avoid being able to turn the tables on me.
Dongfang Xiao's attempt to seek peace was merely a desperate act born out of necessity while trapped by the formation.
Dongfang Xiao, his thoughts exposed, was furious and embarrassed.
"Do you really think that if you kill me, you can leave Tianfu City alive?"
I have protected humanity for a hundred years; you dare to touch me.
No one will let you go; you will be the enemy of the entire human race.
Baili Die's expression froze, and her gaze gradually turned cold.
In the past, Dongfang Xiao was gentle and aloof, with a refined and scholarly air.
However, despite being much older than the others, he always appeared calm and composed.
The almost out-of-control roar of anger and the undisguised resentment he was displaying were things she had never seen before.
People only reveal their true colors when they are facing dire straits.
Could this be Dongfang Xiao's true face?
Liu Chen dismissed his threat and instead laughed sarcastically.
People only admire the strong who are useful to them; the strong who have died are not worth mentioning!
Do you really think that after you die, someone will come after me because of you?
Dongfang Xiao paused, his movements slowing down slightly.
He didn't want to admit it, but what Liu Chen said was an unchanging truth.
If he were still alive, he could easily command the ninth-tier experts of Tianfu City to join forces and attack Liu Chen.
But if he really dies, who will avenge a dead man?
If Liu Chen could kill him, it meant he was stronger than him.
Dongfang Xiao thought he could protect the human race, and Liu Chen could do the same.
Human nature is inherently selfish and cold-blooded!
But he refused to admit the truth, and his crimson claws slammed fiercely towards the formation.
However, before the fiery claws could land in the conjured clouds...
A thin layer of blue mist easily blocked it.
As the two energies collided, the water mist trembled violently, but still managed to withstand the impact.
As the battle progressed, Dongfang Xiao became increasingly frenzied.
"Liu Chen, let me go!"
You shouldn't have known these things in the first place. If you had, it would have only brought you death.
There are always people more capable than you, and there are always things beyond your understanding; some people you simply cannot afford to offend.
Don't think that just because you can defeat me with your schemes, you're qualified to fight me.
Liu Chen sighed helplessly.
"You don't understand me at all."
The so-called behind-the-scenes figures are nothing more than cultivators!
In his eyes, it was nothing much, and the formation's offensive gradually intensified.
With the influx of massive amounts of demonic energy, the formation was overloaded, and the array flags emitted mournful cries.
