Qu Yun's face was filled with resentment, but he did not dare to walk up the glazed stairs again.
Jiang Zhige's eyes were also filled with murderous intent, and he said in a cold voice: "That's exactly what I meant."
Just as he was about to step away from the glass disc, Ning Qiu Shui's voice was heard again not far away.
"Azhi, you are a great emperor, are you going to act on impulse?"
Ning Qiu Shui's pretty face was pale. After taking several pills to heal herself, she finally had the strength to support herself and stand up.
Qu Yun was unable to cross the chaos, so Jiang Zhige could have waited until his origin was repaired before fighting. At this moment, taking the initiative to leave the glass disc was exactly what Qu Yun wanted.
Jiang Zhige frowned slightly and said nothing.
He was not acting on impulse, but he could not let Ning Qiu Shui be threatened again.
Besides, Qu Yun is not a fool. He has the confidence to stand here. Possessing the power of the Wild Blood Dragon Emperor is secondary. The main thing is that Jiang Zhige happens to have a defective origin.
If Jiang Zhige refused to fight at this time, Qu Yun would definitely flee. How could he just stand there and wait for Jiang Zhige's essence to recover? A half-emperor facing a great emperor in his prime, even with some of the power of the Wild Blood Dragon Emperor, Qu Yun had no chance of winning.
Jiang Zhige chose to fight, not only to ensure Ning Qiu Shui's safety, but also to kill Qu Yun to avenge Qi Muyao.
Otherwise, by the time the origin was restored, Qu Yun would have already escaped from the Emperor's Tomb.
"I can hold him back, you repair your origin as soon as possible."
Ning Qiu Shui put away his eight-stringed zither as he spoke, and layers of light rose from his body.
Jiang Zhige suddenly felt a headache. It was not so much that he was acting on impulse, but rather that Ning Qiu Shui was just trying to show off.
"You ridiculous woman, do you really think I won't kill you?"
Qu Yun could no longer bear it, so he picked up the Savage Ancestral Dragon Sword and rushed towards Ning Qiu Shui.
If he had not held back twice before, Ning Qiu Shui would probably have been dead. Now if he allowed Ning Qiu Shui to delay for a while longer, Jiang Zhige might really succeed in restoring his origin.
Jiang Zhige's eyes narrowed slightly. Qu Yun had already decided not to hold back, and he could no longer hesitate.
Just as Jiang Zhige was about to make a move, Ning Qiushui suddenly said, "Ah Zhi, I'm sure."
Before he finished speaking, the faint sound of the piano began to ring out again, with a more holy tone than before that should not be desecrated.
Qu Yun's face changed slightly, and he felt like he was stuck in a quagmire, unable to move.
The Daoyuan armor around his body was also constantly twisting, as if it could not withstand the influence of the piano sound.
"How can one achieve this level just by the sound of the piano?"
Qu Yun gritted his teeth secretly and could only temporarily put aside his murderous intent, trying his best to resist Ning Qiu Shui's purifying piano sound.
Ning Qiu Shui wanted to buy time for Jiang Zhige, and of course he was not trying to be brave. He was defeated by Qu Yun in the beginning only because he was unable to master the power he had just acquired.
In the past, she was used to playing the seven-stringed harp, but the Qiushui Harp has eight strings.
Now using the eighth string, she is able to produce music that is far beyond her own level.
Jiang Zhige saw this and without any hesitation, he immediately focused on repairing the damaged origin.
Since Ning Qiu Shui can hold back Qu Yun, he can't delay even a minute.
"How despicable! He is only at the Questioning Profound Realm!"
Seeing Jiang Zhige repairing his origin at full speed, Qu Yun suddenly felt panicked and angry.
He finally had the chance to kill Jiang Zhige, but he was held back by a person in the Questioning Profound Realm?
Logically speaking, even if Ning Qiu Shui had the cultivation level of a half-emperor, it would be impossible for him to stop Qu Yun who was possessed by the Daoyuan Armor.
However, the eighth string of the Qiu Shui Harp was even rarer than the Savage Ancestral Dragon Sword in his hand, and it actually made Ning Qiu Shui so strong.
It may sound a bit cliché, but the best explanation for this is the 'power of love'.
Ning Qiu Shui's Tao is Jiang Zhige, and her undying love for Jiang Zhige is the weapon that helps her improve her combat effectiveness.
With such power, not to mention Qu Yun, even Jiang Zhige was a little confused, or even ashamed.
If he talks about liking someone, he naturally likes Ning Qiu Shui, but he seems to have never given anything to Ning Qiu Shui.
In his past life, the people who interacted the most with Jiang Zhige were Nangong Rou and his three daughters, and Ning Qiu Shui's affection for him had always been overshadowed.
How could Jiang Zhige deserve Ning Qiushui's love for him to the point of using this as a way to even use his power to hold back Qu Yun? You know, Qu Yun was able to fight across levels. With the Savage Ancestral Dragon Blade and the power of the Savage Blood Dragon Emperor, he was able to kill a half-emperor in three moves.
Time passed slowly and the situation was at a stalemate for a while.
After Qu Yun stabilized the Daoyuan Armor, he began to approach Ning Qiu Shui who was playing the piano with difficulty. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, his speed was as slow as a turtle.
Jiang Zhige's incomplete origin was just one step away from being completely restored.
"How hateful! How hateful!!"
Qu Yun's eyes were red and he walked forward like mad, but he still couldn't escape the bondage of the piano sound.
Jiang Zhige's origin was about to be restored successfully. If he continued to be dragged by Ning Qiu Shui like this, he would probably die here, let alone kill Jiang Zhige, and he wouldn't even be able to escape.
The anger seemed to have some effect, and it also seemed that Ning Qiu Shui was gradually exhausted, and Qu Yun's speed began to increase.
Ning Qiu Shui's beautiful eyes were tightly closed, the sound of the piano played by her fingertips rose and fell, and a layer of sweat had already appeared on her forehead.
Jiang Zhige also closed his eyes and tried his best to absorb the essence of the surrounding avenue.
At this moment, he has successfully transformed the source of Tao into the source of magic, and the only thing left is to integrate these magic sources into himself.
Almost, just a little bit.
Thinking that Ning Qiu Shui was risking his life, the closer the moment got, the more restless Jiang Zhige became.
"No, if I don't have this little bit of trust in her, how can I be qualified to accept her affection in the Wuyun Space, and how can I possibly help her reach the Emperor Realm in the future?"
Jiang Zhige forced himself to calm down and focus on integrating the origin.
Realizing that Jiang Zhige was already fusing the origin, Qu Yun's head began to buzz and his heart was shrouded in a haze of death.
At this moment, he had no way to retreat. Even if he got rid of the sound of the zither, he could not escape from the Emperor's Tomb from Jiang Zhige.
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
"I won't accept this!! I won't accept this!!!"
Qu Yun let out a hysterical roar, and a line of terrifying blood and tears flowed from his eyes.
At this moment, the scenes in the Zhengyang Temple resurfaced in his mind, and the unwillingness of not being able to take revenge almost made him feel like he would rather die than live.
If he only coveted the beauty of Nangong Rou and the other two girls, even if they fell in love with someone else, Qu Yun would not have the slightest attachment to them.
However, in Qu Yun's heart, Nangong Rou and the other girl have long been the loves of his life.
Whether it was Nangong Rou, Mo Ziyan, or Su Qingqiu, Qu Yun couldn't let go of them, but they were all snatched away by Jiang Zhige alone.
No one could understand Qu Yun's deep grief and indignation at having his love taken away from him.
Because no one knew how deeply he loved Nangong Rou and the other two girls.
Now it was clear that as long as he held Ning Qiu Shui hostage, he could force Jiang Zhige to stop repairing his origin, and use the power of the Wild Blood Dragon Emperor to kill Jiang Zhige for revenge, but he was actually held up by Ning Qiu Shui, who was in the Questioning Profound Realm, for most of the day.
At this moment, the piano music stopped abruptly.
Ning Qiu Shui's face was as pale as paper, and he covered his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Obviously, continuously playing piano music that was far beyond her own level had pushed her to her limit.
"Give!"
"I!"
"die!"
Qu Yun's eyes were full of bloodshot, and he suddenly slashed at Ning Qiu Shui with a terrifying knife that carried a barbaric will.
