What happened next left everyone dumbfounded.
"Why did the water snake automatically avoid them after they went down?"
What secrets are they hiding?
"Such a strong and pungent smell, could it be that Princess An has prepared a snake-repelling powder?"
"Damn it, the ancients really fooled me. This challenge was specially set up for Princess An."
"That's right, they clearly said no poison was allowed."
"That's so unfair! Just award the championship to Princess An."
"It's infuriating! The Venerable One is blatantly letting us win at this level."
Some people felt resentful.
Soon, the two team members from Prince An's Mansion easily emerged from the river.
Judging from their excited expressions, they must have gained something.
"Hurry up and rob them; they must have gotten the fragments."
Someone shouted something, and people from all directions rushed toward the small bridge.
They couldn't kill the snake, but they could openly steal the fragments.
They disregarded their masks and took off flying.
Fortunately, Feng Qingcheng was prepared and swung a rope over to pull the two of them over when they got up.
"Your Highness, the things."
Feng Qingcheng took the note, but before she could open it, a series of spells were launched at her.
The group was surprisingly united, unleashing all sorts of magic at once, as if they wouldn't give up until they left something behind!
Long Moyuan quickly pulled Feng Qingcheng away, and the team members swiftly formed the Seven Star Formation.
They don't have a Xuanzun master, but they have the Seven Star Array.
The formidable Seven Star Formation—are you scared yet?
Anyone who's not afraid of death is welcome to come and take on the challenge!
Once the formation is activated, any further attacks from the group using their special skills will be like throwing an egg against a rock.
The crowd was furious and dared not take another step forward.
Just then, Jiang Yuebai swiftly flew to the middle of the river and, before the water snake could get close, pulled a crumpled piece of paper from the bottom of the river.
It turns out there was more than one crumpled piece of paper.
He got a good deal this time.
Thank you, Qingcheng.
Nanfeng was about to die laughing.
"Senior Brother, you actually followed the clues and found the fragment?"
Jiang Yuebai said, "It's just a crumpled piece of paper."
The location of the fragments is drawn on the crumpled paper.
However, there is only one fragment. Now that the Prince An's mansion is under siege, wouldn't it be too unethical for him to pick up the fragment?
"Great, the fragment is here, let's go." Nanfeng said, and turned to leave.
"Nanfeng, let's go help Prince An's mansion instead."
Nanfeng shook his head: "Their Seven Star Formation is very powerful; those guys wouldn't dare to act rashly."
"But they're clearly just trying to stall for time. They can't get it, and they don't want the Prince An's Mansion to get it either."
Nanfeng was furious: "A bunch of despicable people."
After saying that, Nanfeng was the first to rush out.
"Qingcheng, I'm here to help you!"
After Nanfeng finished speaking, he unleashed his most prized Meteor Shower!
However, he was just a novice at the Xuanzong level, and his magic was destroyed in the blink of an eye as soon as he cast it.
He knew he was weak, but he never imagined he was this pitifully weak.
No wonder Qingcheng didn't like him.
He doesn't even respect himself, okay?
Nanfeng feels like crying.
It seems his dream of becoming a great husband is a long way off.
Jiang Yuebai and the Xuantian Sect joined the battle.
"Jiang Yuebai, we didn't stop you, but you came here to die on your own."
"I'm sorry, but Xuantian Sect will always be the support of Prince An's Mansion."
"Tch, this is a competition, why pretend to be friendly?"
"Exactly, there's only one fragment. Wouldn't your Xuantian Sect accept it for free?"
"Alright, now leave all the crystals of your Xuantian Sect behind!"
Xuantian Sect's move has undoubtedly offended the other families.
So everyone vented their anger on Xuantian Sect.
In the blink of an eye, the Xuantian Sect was besieged.
Jiang Yuebai led everyone in a fierce resistance!
It is said that Feng Qingcheng and the others only defended and did not attack, using spiritual power to maintain the Seven Star Formation, but this could not continue. The system reminded them that there was not much time left in the level.
Feng Qingcheng glanced at the crumpled paper, which marked the locations of the fragments.
"A-Yuan, you lead the group to find the fragments, I'll cover the rear."
Long Moyuan looked at her worriedly: "Acheng, you should lead everyone to find the fragments, I'll do it."
"You?" Feng Qingcheng was very suspicious.
Long Moyuan smiled and said, "Acheng, don't forget, I can use the dual swords in combination."
Feng Qingcheng felt that Long Moyuan would not let her sacrifice herself; even if he withdrew from the competition, it seemed like there would be no loss.
"Ah Yuan, then do what you can and don't get hurt. If things go wrong, just pop the signal ball."
Long Moyuan patted her head: "Don't worry, I'll be fine because of you."
Feng Qingcheng led her team toward the finish line.
The people of Xuantian Sect are furious.
It's all the eldest brother's fault. If he hadn't suggested rescuing the Prince An's Mansion, they would have obtained the fragments long ago.
Now look what's happened, their entire clan has become victims of someone else's schemes!
Princess An and the others, on the other hand, went straight to collect the broken pieces!
Waaah, what kind of mess is this!
How frustrating!
Xuantian Sect is doomed this time!
Just as the Xuantian Sect was collapsing, Long Moyuan, holding two swords, slowly walked towards the crowd!
The wind blew, stirring up clouds of dust.
The people fighting felt waves of surging sword energy!
For a moment, everything in heaven and earth seemed to be filled with a desolate and chilling atmosphere.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Long Moyuan in unison.
At this moment, the boy was like a god descending from heaven. His superior and disdainful demeanor terrified everyone!
"Long Moyuan!"
What is he trying to do?
"Does he intend to use a combined attack against us?"
Someone asked in a low voice.
As the boy approached, everyone felt a chill run down their spines and involuntarily took a few steps back!
Strange, why be afraid of someone who has no spiritual power?
Could it be because he killed the vampire bat with just one move?
The Crown Prince felt that Long Moyuan was becoming increasingly mysterious. For the past two years, he had been like a precious sword hidden in its sheath, biding his time and concealing his brilliance. People had almost forgotten his former sharpness. Now, with a single move to kill the bat, his sharpness was fully revealed, making people feel fear without realizing it.
A chilling cold swept over him; the prince's back was completely soaked!
Strange, why would he be afraid of a good-for-nothing?
If word gets out, won't his reputation be ruined?
Unlike His Highness the Crown Prince, Feng Qingran looked at Long Moyuan with eyes full of admiration.
Her eyes were overflowing with love.
Long Moyuan, this genius boy who is like a god, is the softest place in her heart.
Even if he loses all his spiritual power, he can still shine brightly!
He truly is the man she has her eye on!
His Highness the Crown Prince is not even as good as the mud under his feet!
She longed to rush over and hug him, to tell him all the love she had for him!
Feng Qingran seemed to see a future where the two of them would walk hand in hand, living a happy life together in harmony.
She was lost in the dream she had created.
At this moment, Long Moyuan narrowed his eyes dangerously and quickly soared into the sky, his two swords instantly transforming into streaks of sharp light!
He was so fast that no one had time to react!
"Man and sword become one!"
The young man let out a calm shout, and the imposing sword energy seemed to roll down with the power of thunder!
In that instant!
The heavens and earth changed color! The earth shook! Everyone was filled with fear!
Long streaks of light transformed into countless sword beams, surging towards the crowd!
Rumble!
Rumble!
Within a radius of three zhang, everything was enveloped in sword energy, with sword shadows appearing like a tapestry! There was no way to avoid it!
The power of the twin swords is enough to shatter a person's soul!
One after another, domineering sword energies blasted everyone away!
The small bridge was blown up!
The water snakes in the river all surged up and flew into the air!
Those guys who were originally besieging the Xuantian Sect had to use a barrier to protect themselves in order to land safely without getting hurt!
"My God, how did His Highness Prince An manage to do that?"
"His combined swordsmanship is incredibly powerful!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The young man remained silent and continued to show off his twin swords.
Mother, here we go again?
Can't he just shut up for a while?
The group used a protective barrier as they fled!
Although the boy had no spiritual power, his sword energy was incredibly powerful, and even a Xuanzun-level expert wouldn't dare to challenge him rashly!
After all, they're afraid of dying too!
Furthermore, if a powerful Xuanzun were to lose to someone without spiritual power, how could he possibly maintain his reputation if word got out?
God, just kill them already!
The people from Xuantian Sect were completely dumbfounded.
Your Highness Prince An, has that once godlike genius boy made a comeback?
He saved them all by himself!
Is it really necessary to be so harsh on someone?
Everyone seemed to see that terrifying young genius from before again, the shadow he cast over them like a fishbone stuck in their throats!
The scenes of him crushing everyone time and time again are still vivid in my mind; they are terrifying!
People didn't realize they had distanced themselves from him.
Only the fearless Nanfeng rushed forward.
"Long Moyuan, you're amazing! You're practically my god!" Upon gaining her freedom, Nanfeng immediately ran to Long Moyuan's side, practically wanting to cling to his leg.
Long Moyuan glanced at him indifferently: "You guys hurry up and finish the mission at the finish line. Leave this to me."
Nanfeng, remembering his mission, immediately jumped up: "Senior Brother, what are you waiting for? Go pick up the fragments, or it will be too late."
Jiang Yuebai looked at Long Moyuan, feeling uneasy.
Isn't it too shameful that a Xuanzun level expert like him is no match for a guy who has lost all his spiritual power?
What can you do if it's embarrassing? After all, they are deeply favored by God!
If you lack spiritual power, use your twin swords to make up for it!
Its power is immense, and it awes the four directions!
So annoying!
"Thank you for your help, Your Highness Prince An." Jiang Yuebai bowed as she passed by Long Moyuan.
It was a kind of awe for the strong; even if he was not convinced, his behavior still betrayed his base nature.
He was genuinely afraid of Long Moyuan.
Long Moyuan glanced at him indifferently: "The Prince An's Mansion doesn't want to owe anyone favors. If you don't have the ability, don't try to stand out."
Those words really hit home.
The people of Xuantian Sect were furious.
However, due to the other party's status, no one dared to refute.
Jiang Yuebai nodded and led his team toward the finish line.
Long Moyuan narrowed his eyes dangerously as he looked at the restless crowd, his twin swords flashing with a bloodthirsty light: "Who dares to come and challenge me?"
A bright and talented young man, all alone, blocked the path of hundreds of people.
He commands respect without being angry!
Everyone felt a chill seep into their hearts.
Why?
His Highness Prince An clearly has no spiritual power whatsoever.
How can it be so terrifying?
His Highness the Crown Prince is furious!
A bunch of cowardly cowards, nothing but a bunch of useless trash, what's there to be afraid of?
"Go! Kill that guy!"
"Your Highness, no one can withstand Prince An's sword aura."
"Useless trash. With so many people around, you're actually afraid of him?"
"It's about time, why don't we back out?"
"Your Highness, we can only get 80% of the rewards for this level, so let's not bother anymore."
"Yes, Your Highness. It would be very embarrassing if we couldn't defeat Prince An."
“There are many spectators watching outside, Your Highness. Showing off is not the solution. Saving face is of utmost importance.”
His teammate whispered a reminder, and even though the prince was unwilling, he could only endure it.
Long Moyuan, you bastard! You're crippled and useless, so why are you still wielding a sword?
face?
Haven't I lost face enough already?
As long as this guy lives, I will never have any face!
The prince clenched his fingers in resentment!
Long Moyuan, one day, I will trample you under my feet and crush you!
Soon, one after another, people dropped out of the challenge.
As the Crown Prince withdrew, he sarcastically remarked to Long Moyuan, "Brother, your swordsmanship is superb. We won't bully those without spiritual power anymore. See you at the next level."
Before Long Moyuan could answer, the Crown Prince threw his team members out of the checkpoint.
Long Moyuan gave a cold laugh.
Who is bullying whom?
The emperor's hands trembled, and the cup in his hands fell to the ground.
Grandpa Hua quickly picked it up for him.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! You no longer need to worry about Prince An's safety," Eunuch Hua teased with a smile.
The emperor came to his senses.
Now that Yuan'er has shown her skills, he'll probably be unable to sleep for many nights.
If he is already this terrifying without spiritual power, wouldn't Yuan'er be too terrifying if he suddenly regained his spiritual power one day?
If Feng Qingcheng can recover her spiritual power, what if Yuan'er...?
The emperor shook his head, quickly banishing the jumbled thoughts from his mind.
"Your Majesty," Eunuch Hua called out worriedly when he saw that the emperor's expression was not right.
The Emperor took a deep breath: "Eunuch, you said Yuan'er's maternal clan is too powerful. Did he inherit their power?"
Eunuch Hua said, "Your Majesty need not worry. Prince An is cold on the outside but kind on the inside. He will not harm Your Majesty."
Even so, he was still uneasy.
"Your Majesty must not forget the purpose of this competition."
"Yes, yes, a treasure map."
"Actually, it would be a good thing to let Prince An and his wife search for the treasure map without the newlyweds being separated, thus demonstrating the Emperor's great benevolence."
The Emperor nodded: "Your plan is brilliant."
Following the clues on the crumpled paper, Feng Qingcheng quickly found the fragment.
The crowd cheered.
By the time the Xuantian Sect members arrived, it was too late.
Jiang Yuebai could only congratulate Feng Qingcheng with tears in her eyes.
In fact, the goddess was even happier to get the fragment than he was to get it himself.
The people of Xuantian Sect were furious. If it weren't for saving the Prince An's Mansion, those fragments would have been theirs.
But because of Jiang Yuebai's warning, no one dared to say anything.
But deep down I felt uncomfortable.
For this mission, Xuan Tian Sect only received 80% of the rewards, which is extremely frustrating!
No matter how unhappy you are, you can only leave the level with resentment.
When Feng Qingcheng saw Long Moyuan walking towards her with a smile, she excitedly rushed towards him.
"A-Yuan, are you alright?"
Feng Qingcheng was extremely worried, and asked him questions while taking his pulse.
Actually, she did regret leaving him behind.
Now that I think about it, what if he had been arrogant and conceited and refused to pop the signal ball?
What if the Crown Prince and his gang take the opportunity to get rid of him?
Looking back now, I'm terrified.
Long Moyuan smiled and said, "I'm fine."
"Ah Yuan, you're amazing! You actually rescued them all by yourself." Feng Qingcheng praised him with a smile when she saw that he was unharmed.
Actually, as long as you give Long Moyuan sweet treats, he will be very gentle with you.
He can be very warm.
Long Moyuan smiled and said, "He must be worthy of our Ah Cheng."
"But how did you manage to take down all those big shots all by yourself?" Feng Qingcheng asked, blinking her curious eyes.
"They were probably intimidated by the combined power of the two swords. Actually, they weren't that powerful anymore. Maybe they were afraid of authority."
Is that all?
Speaking of Long Moyuan, do you think I don't know what power you still have now?
Lying is really not a good thing.
She became increasingly curious about Long Moyuan.
Does he really have no spiritual power?
But when I took his pulse, I could tell he really didn't have any spiritual power.
For some reason, she seemed to see the shadow of Wuming in him.
If we make him a mask to wear...
Feng Qingcheng imagined Long Moyuan wearing a mask and a red robe, and in the end, his shadow actually overlapped with Wuming's.
Feng Qingcheng shook her head. Impossible.
They cannot be the same person.
"Ah Cheng?" Long Moyuan's voice brought her back to her senses.
"A-Yuan, do you know Wuming?" Feng Qingcheng suddenly asked.
Long Moyuan was taken aback at first, then stroked her cheek: "Who is Wuming?"
Feng Qingcheng said regretfully, "A friend."
"Male or female?"
here we go again.
If this continues, he'll turn into a yandere male protagonist.
"It's a woman," Feng Qingcheng lied.
"Women can't be too intimate with you either." Long Moyuan was extremely domineering.
Feng Qingcheng took out the fragment and changed the subject: "Haha, mission accomplished, we can move on to the next level now."
Fortunately, the time was up.
The group was teleported out.
In this round of tasks, the Prince An's Mansion was rewarded with 800 crystals. Combined with the crystals from Feng Qingran and the Crown Prince's Mansion, they are now firmly in first place, significantly widening the gap between their crystals and those of the others.
Seeing this, Nanfeng couldn't help but sigh.
He had previously boasted that Xuantian Sect was the champion, but now he's been slapped in the face. It really hurts.
The upcoming levels will only get harder; unless you rob all the crystals from Prince An's mansion, it's impossible to win against them.
“Our princess said she doesn’t want to owe the Xuantian Sect any favors, so she will share half of the reward for winning this round with you. Here are four hundred crystals, please keep them safe.”
Jiang Yuebai stared blankly at the crystals that Feng Qingcheng's team members had brought.
Feng Qingcheng is truly magnanimous.
So, does that mean their Xuantian Sect actually benefited the most from this hurdle?
After all, they still have the reward for completing 80% of the level.
"Princess An certainly knows how to handle people."
"Actually, if we hadn't gone to help them, the fragments would have been ours."
