Chapter 1332 Was That Your Strongest Move?
Fairy Ruowu wore a fiery red dress, her skin was as white as snow, and her outstandingly delicate figure was wrapped in strands of magnificent and hazy flames.
She was a descendant of the Vermillion Bird Lineage with stunning talent, a heaven pride that had the attention of the entire Upper Nine Realms, and a goddess respected by countless cultivators.
Her character, however, was quite aloof and solitary.
No one could have expected that she would challenge such a person at this moment.
“Fellow Daoist Lin Xun, please.”
Fairy Ruowu stood calmly as she ignored the strange gazes from the surroundings. Her crystal-clear eyes were fixed on Lin Xun alone.
Many people looked at Lin Xun dubiously, wondering if there was a grudge between him and Fairy Ruowu. Otherwise, she could have challenged anyone but him.
It was too risky to choose Lin Xun as the opponent, as one would have to endure immense pressure. It just seemed like a very unwise move.
However, Fairy Ruowu did so, to the shock and surprise of all.
“Woah, is Boss’s charisma so irresistible now?” teased A’lu with an implying expression.
“Hmph, I only accept Miss Zhao as my sister-in-law,” snorted Toady coldly.
Zhao Jingxuan’s pretty face instantly reddened, and she shot Toady a murderous look. If it wasn’t for the fact that the occasion wasn’t right, then she would have loved to kick him to death.
“You guys are too green. Isn’t it normal for men to have three wives and four concubines? I support Lin Xun frolicking in the flower fields and enjoying himself without restraint. That’s called a true playboy, a model character!” The big black bird wagged its head proudly.
Lin Xun slapped the bird on its head with a loud bang. This rascal is seeking death! Can’t it see the dark shadow on Jingxuan’s face?
Lin Xun then walked toward the battlefield.
While he had been caught off guard a little, he wasn’t afraid to fight anyone.
“I actually want to see if he’ll show mercy,” Zhao Jingxuan’s voice suddenly rang out behind him, with a hint of suspicion in it.
Lin Xun only felt a chill run down his spine, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. How could a man as virtuous as him trip over something like this?!
As Lin Xun entered the field, all the gazes converged on him, filled with anticipation.
As far as they knew, one side was a proud daughter of heaven who ranked second on the Genius Gold Rankings, while the other was the invincible Demon God Lin who had defeated Yun Qingbai.
How intense would their duel be?
“Please.” Lin Xun’s expression was calm and collected as his energy started flowing.
“Regardless of whether or not I can obtain the Saint’s Guide, it’s always been my wish to spar with Brother Lin, so I hope that you won’t hold back,” Fairy Ruowu’s clear voice resounded through the field like a spring stream. She looked striking as her long hair danced in the wind. As a descendant of the Vermillion Bird, she carried a graceful and splendid bearing.
“Alright.” Lin Xun smiled faintly.
Seeing this, Toady immediately said, “Look at him flirting with that girl! You must keep an eye on him in the future, Miss Zhao. Don’t let him run rampant!”
Zhao Jingxuan angrily snapped, “You shut up!”
Toady sighed, “You’re mad as well, right? I knew you couldn’t stand to see this either, but unfortunately, I can’t just go and discipline my Boss, or else I would definitely help you out...”
Zhao Jingxuan gritted her teeth as she itched with an urge to strangle the fellow to death. The duel is starting, can’t he just stop for a while?!
In the field, the battle had erupted.
Fairy Ruowu was as light as a feather, but was as quick as a spreading fire. Her slender finger gently drew a stroke, and her radiant aura transformed into a whip.
The whip lashed out with a bang, and the air ripped like a piece of paper, unable to stand the Law Power in the whip.
The destructive force made many hearts jump as the onlookers gasped in awe.
Lin Xun didn’t dodge. He even moved forward and welcomed the attack with his fist.
There was a deafening collision as the two clashed. The long whip condensed from Law Power danced wildly and flexibly, producing illusory circles that tied Lin Xun up.
The crowd cheered, “Not bad!”
However, when Lin Xun stretched out, the circles binding him exploded inch by inch.
In that same moment, he punched out, blasting an ancient and boundless fist qi that shook the region and stirred the wind and clouds in its wake.
In a flash, the two had already exchanged hundreds of attacks. It was a world-class battle between a figure who danced like a Vermillion Bird among the nine heavens and a demon god who rampaged across the world.
Outside the battlefield, cries of surprise rang out nonstop as the audience felt shook to the core, paying close attention lest they miss any detail.
Even Imperial Son Shaohao was watching the duel seriously.
“Miss Ruowu, if you don’t use your full strength, you will definitely lose.”
Lin Xun’s voice suddenly rang out. He was covered in flowing dao lights, his long hair fluttering in his grand, domineering aura.
Even though many had already witnessed Lin Xun’s dashing demeanor when he had killed Yun Qingbai, they were still struck with shock and awe to see him strike at this moment.
Demon God Lin was undeniably becoming stronger and stronger!
“Burn the World!” shouted Fairy Ruowu with a solemn expression.
Around her, a fire ring emerged. Round and divine, the ring seemed to contain an entire kingdom of fire with strands of flames steaming within. It was like a huge sun that set the whole sky on fire!
“The Vermillion Bird Clan’s innate technique!” exclaimed the audience as they trembled in shock.
It was rumored that in the ancient era, there had been a Vermillion Bird Saint King who had used this art to burn down hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, instantly vaporizing a vast ocean into a dry and cracked land!
And Fairy Ruowu was using it!
Boom!
The fire ring loomed over the boundless battlefield with cascades of fire. Standing amidst it all, Fairy Ruowu was like the goddess of fire descending the earth.
The overbearing strike caused many to feel chills running through their hearts. Their eyes hurt at its blinding manifestation, and their souls nearly slipped away from the terror.
It was just too powerful!
If it were them facing this strike head-on, they would have been incinerated to ashes in a second, destroyed in both body and spirit!
“Will he be alright?” Zhao Jingxuan’s heart leaped to her throat.
After awakening from her long sleep, she had learned that Lin Xun was no longer who he used to be as he was extremely powerful now. However, this was the first time she had seen him engage in such a fierce battle with a supreme character like Fairy Ruowu.
How could she not be anxious?
Toady was a bit surprised to see Zhao Jingxuan like this. He looked at her with an odd expression. “You’ve always been the most calm during times like this and had absolute confidence in his skills. How come you’ve suddenly become so worried now?”
A’lu immediately commented, “Women in love usually lose a bit of intelligence. It’s normal.”
Zhao Jingxuan was mortified. Her pretty face burned as she gave Toady and A’lu a kick each.
At that moment, there was a clamor from the audience. In the battlefield that had been engulfed by churning divine flames, Lin Xun was like an unmovable rock that was immune to erosion!
Roaring flames, dao light, and Law Power poured down with enough destructive power that could burn the whole world, but they were unable to touch Lin Xun at all.
At some point, an abyss had emerged around him and swallowed everything that tried to approach!
“Grand Abyss Heaven Devourer...” sighed Imperial Son Shaohao softly.
How could he not have heard of this innate talent?
Unfortunately, he had only heard of it. He had no knowledge on how powerful it actually was because such an innate talent had only been a rumor in the ancient era, mysterious and almost unseen!
“Flowing Fire Dance!” shouted Fairy Ruowu as an endless brilliance enveloped her, spilling out streams of fire.
This was her trump card that she very rarely used. If it failed to break through Lin Xun’s defense, then she could only admit defeat.
The battlefield rumbled as streams of fire rapidly swept through it. Under their boundless power and aura, the sky seemed to be incinerated and quickly dimmed.
“So this is her strongest move...” Many apex giants felt their blood run cold.
Many of them had dueled Fairy Ruowu before, but this was the first time they had seen this phenomenal strike.
“Very good!” shouted Lin Xun, his voice shaking the area.
From afar, he looked like a grand abyss that connected the earth with the sky. Boundless and unfathomable, it gobbled up everything around!
Many cultivators almost bit their tongues in stupor. The great abyss truly looked like it was swallowing the whole world.
The two clashed in an earth-shattering rumble that frightened many onlookers witless.
Meanwhile, the top figures like Imperial Son Shaohao, Ye Mohe, and Mi Hengzhen couldn’t hide their shocked expressions, and their eyes constricted at what they saw.
Ruowu lost!
In this most powerful exchange, her strongest strike was crushed into nothingness like a fragile leaf by Lin Xun’s abyss!
Her face was pale as she staggered and almost fell down from the sky.
On the contrary, Lin Xun still looked proper and neat, completely unharmed!
After a long silence, Fairy Ruowu took a deep breath and looked at Lin Xun with a solemn expression. “Brother Lin, was that...your strongest move?”
Lin Xun shook his head.
Fairy Ruowu slightly trembled, and her pale face flashed with bitterness as she said, “I understand. Thank you for being merciful, Brother Lin.”
With that, she flickered out of the battlefield.
Meanwhile, the area was dead silent as everyone’s heart was tumbling with emotions.
That last move is not Demon God Lin’s strongest skill?
Does this mean he didn’t use all of his strength?
The implication was simply frightening!
Zhao Jingxuan, on the other hand, looked like a weight had been taken off her heart. She revealed a relaxed smile, and her crystal-clear eyes rippled with joy.
This fellow...is still powerful, just like before.
Toady and A’lu both turned to her and teased, “It feels good, doesn’t it?”
Zhao Jingxuan’s smile froze. She just had this indescribable impulse to suggest Lin Xun to break ties with his two rascally brothers.
