The silver arrow grazed past his body, and a chilling sensation made his face covered in sweat. He took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on Gu Yifeng again, his heart churning with turmoil.
This guy is indeed quite skilled. If he hadn't reacted in time, he probably would have perished from that attack.
"Since you know my name, then you should get lost." Gu Yifeng uttered a voice that exploded in everyone's minds like a thunderclap, causing many people to shudder and reveal extremely complex expressions on their faces, a mixture of resentment, regret, shame, and other emotions.
They are the pride of the wasteland, yet today they have suffered a setback, which is a disgrace!
But they dared not disobey, and they all turned and left without hesitation. They all knew that if they stayed today, they might be killed.
"Let's go too, let's find a place to heal our wounds first," Qi Yunxiao said to Qi Yurou. The two turned to leave, but suddenly, a cold and ruthless voice came from behind them.
"Wait, who gave you permission to leave?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yunxiao and Qi Yurou froze, their faces stiff. They cursed inwardly, thinking, "Damn it! We are the direct descendants of the Qi family, of noble status. Do we even need to ask someone to let us leave now?"
"What exactly do you want?" Qi Yunxiao asked, suppressing his anger. If the environment were different, he would have killed the young man in front of him long ago.
"Didn't you say I wasn't qualified to participate in the Ancient Trial? Now, am I qualified or not?" Gu Yifeng smiled playfully, his tone rather flippant, completely disregarding Qi Yunxiao and the other man.
Qi Yunxiao's expression was extremely gloomy. It was indeed his words, but he did not expect that the other party would actually have the courage to admit it, and even say it so frankly.
The expressions of those around him changed slightly. This young man was quite bold, daring to openly question the two great clans. He was truly a fearless young man.
"What do you want to make you stop?" Qi Yunxiao asked through gritted teeth. They had lost face today, and if they didn't agree to the other party's conditions, how could they let it go?
"Kneel down and kowtow three times, then get out of here, and I'll spare your lives." Gu Yifeng said calmly, his tone extremely indifferent, as if he were giving an order, without the slightest bit of politeness, as if he were a supreme ruler.
As Gu Yifeng's voice fell, the crowd's eyes widened in astonishment as they stared at the white-robed youth. This man had actually made such an outrageous request; it was simply... outrageous!
Qi Yunxiao's face turned ashen. This guy was going too far!
"You're courting death!" Qi Yunxiao roared, his body erupting with an extremely dazzling light. His powerful Yuan energy roared wildly as it crushed towards Gu Yifeng, attempting to devour him.
"You talk too much nonsense. Since you're unwilling to honor the bet, I'll grant your wish."
Gu Yifeng uttered a calm voice. The moment his voice fell, he clenched his right fist and unleashed a devastating attack. In an instant, a golden dragon hundreds of feet long appeared in the void. Its massive body coiled above the sky, releasing wisps of terrifying demonic energy. The dragon's roar shook the heavens, causing the firmament to tremble. Countless hearts trembled wildly. This aura was too strong; it was simply unmatched.
"Bang!"
Gu Yifeng unleashed a powerful punch, and the golden dragon roared to the sky before swooping down, shattering layers upon layers of sword energy. With overwhelming force, it plunged into the crowd, causing screams to erupt as countless bodies collapsed, blood splattering into the air in a glaring crimson hue.
"stop!"
A loud shout came from afar, and a majestic figure strode in, instantly descending upon this world. His gaze looked into the void, seemingly able to see through everything, and shot directly at Gu Yifeng.
When he saw Gu Yifeng's face clearly, his expression froze, and his face looked slightly embarrassed.
He was another young prodigy, and seemingly more outstanding than anyone he had ever met.
"Long time no see," Gu Yifeng said with a smile.
"It has indeed been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect to run into you so soon. I wonder how your harvest has been this time?" The visitor nodded slightly, then suddenly changed the subject, smiling as he looked at Gu Yifeng: "It seems that your strength has improved again, and you have actually reached the perfect state of the Spirit Realm."
"Just good luck, nothing to mention." Gu Yifeng waved his hand, appearing very humble. He did not mention that he had already stepped into the Emperor Realm. After all, there was a Desolate Domain Trial every ten years in the past, but only four people passed in the end. Therefore, it did not attract much attention, and he was too lazy to explain.
"Hehe, that's true. The gap between us is widening. That's fine, it saves me from feeling pressured," the man laughed, appearing quite casual.
"I heard you've broken through to the Emperor Realm, congratulations!" Gu Yifeng said with a smile. He naturally knew that the person in front of him was a direct descendant of the Qi family. Although his cultivation was weaker than his, his talent was no less. Now, he had comprehended the rules of wind and stepped into the threshold of the Emperor Realm.
"Just lucky." Qi Yunxiao replied indifferently, his eyes deep and his heart filled with deep frustration. He had originally dreamed of living happily ever after with Qi Yurou, but he never expected this nightmare to come so quickly.
Qi Yurou's face was pale. The girl next to her had her head down and didn't say a word. She looked timid and seemed to have been frightened.
Qi Yunxiao had a thought, took a step forward, and stood in front of Qi Yurou and the other person, saying, "We were in the wrong today. Give me a chance, and I will definitely repay you in the future."
"Opportunity?" Gu Yifeng's lips curled into a mocking smile as he said calmly, "Why do you think I should give you an opportunity?"
"What do you want in return?" Qi Yunxiao asked, frowning.
"You don't need to know what I'm going to do. You just need to answer me whether you want to keep your promise?" Gu Yifeng stared at him, revealing an unparalleled domineering aura that made Qi Yunxiao tremble violently and feel a little short of breath.
"No..." Qi Yunxiao managed to utter a single word, then looked up at Gu Yifeng with unwavering determination: "Impossible!"
"Alright then." Gu Yifeng clapped his hands lightly and said, "This is the path you chose yourself, so you can't blame me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his hand, and a sword aura cleaved through the void, piercing through space and heading straight for Qi Yunxiao. The speed was incredibly fast, and it arrived in front of Qi Yunxiao almost instantly. Qi Yunxiao's pupils contracted sharply, and a chill ran through his heart.
He stepped back, and a silver spear shone with dazzling silver light, like a bright moon hanging in the sky. He wielded the spear, and countless silver spear shadows swept out, obscuring the sky and the earth, as he thrust forward to kill.
