While running, Chu Mo searched in the direction Du Jing stated.
After a moment, he vaguely heard some movement ahead. He immediately held his breath and approached the source.
Not far away, in a ruined empty space, a white-clothed girl with a beautiful appearance and peerless demeanor stood there, holding a long sword.
At this moment, she had a cold and indifferent expression as she looked ahead.
In front of her stood a haughty and arrogant youth who commented, “What a beautiful girl. Even more rare are her Talents and passable cultivation!”
“Hey, I am Xu Guang, the prided prodigy of Changfeng Base’s First Academy. I possess a High-Grade Saber Talent and have a limitless future ahead of me. If you are willing to pledge allegiance to me and become my woman, you will also have bright prospects. How about it?” Xu Guang stood with his hands behind his back, looking at her with a hint of greed flashing in his eyes.
She was none other than Chen Xiwei. She did not speak, only pointed the long sword in her hand at Xu Guang from a distance.
Her gaze became even more resolute at this moment—
This action undoubtedly expressed her determination.
“Obstinate fool!” Seeing this, Xu Guang’s eyes flashed and his face darkened, “Daring to disobey me is seeking death, don’t blame me then!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he said no more and suddenly charged forward.
Midway, his aura surged, rushing forth like a mighty river.
His Mid-Stage Martial Artist Realm cultivation was fully unleashed at this moment without reservation!
Faced with such might, Chen Xiwei did not retreat a single step. She only lightly bit her lips and held her long sword to meet him.
Although she had already become a Martial Artist, and possessed good Talents, she was only an Early-Stage Martial Artist. Under such might, she was like a small boat trapped inside raging waves. She was in danger of capsizing at any moment.
Sure enough, after exchanging just a few moves, Chen Xiwei was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood in midair before crashing to the ground.
When she tried to support herself to stand up, she tasted iron in her mouth and vomited another mouthful of blood.
“Look at how weak you are now, it really makes me pity you…” Xu Guang stepped forward slowly with his saber, shaking his head as he looked at Chen Xiwei’s feeble state.
He repeated, “I’ll give you one last chance, do you want to submit to me or not?”
Chen Xiwei’s gaze remained cold, her expression unchanged. It was as if the one who was seriously injured wasn’t her.
She did not speak, her attitude made her intentions clear.
Seeing this scene, Xu Guang’s face turned even more vicious.
As the peerless prodigy of Changfeng Base, ever since he displayed his Talents, even Martial Grandmasters fought to take him as their disciple, let alone anyone else in the entire base daring to defy him.
He could be said to have everything he wanted.
How long has it been? How long since he last encountered someone who showed him such disrespect!?
At this moment, Xu Guang grew impatient.
“Since you would rather die than submit, then I’ll grant your wish and send you on your way!” As he finished speaking, Xu Guang raised his saber, about to slash down at Chen Xiwei.
Feeling the chilling aura from the blade, Chen Xiwei’s heart trembled and she slowly closed her eyes.
She could feel the approaching presence of death.
But she felt no fear.
Only regret in her heart—
She hadn’t seen more sights or traveled more lands.
More importantly… she hadn’t helped Chu Mo find a way to make up for his lacking Cultivation Talent!
[I’m sorry… in the end, I still couldn’t help you.] She thought as she softly sighed in regret.
Xu Guang’s saber was about to land.
It seemed Chen Xiwei was about to die here.
Right at this moment, a loud shout rang out from not far away—
“How dare you!!!” The roar came from someone a distance away.
Yet, by the time the sound faded, the person had instantaneously arrived in front of Xu Guang.
Only now did both the heavily wounded Chen Xiwei and Xu Guang feel an overpowering aura sweeping over them like pounding waves.
“This is…” Chen Xiwei was stunned. It was a familiar voice to her.
She opened her eyes, wanting to see clearly who had come, but could only vaguely make out a black-clothed youth swiftly charging over, battle saber in hand. He had purple lightning crackling around his body and an overwhelming aura.
She wanted to look more closely but she suddenly felt an emptiness in her body.
The next moment, darkness took over her vision and she fainted.
“Who dares to interfere in my business!” At this time, Xu Guang also reacted, sensing a gust behind him and instinctively feeling alarmed.
He saw a handsome youth speeding towards him.
This person was none other than Chu Mo!
Hearing their commotion, he rushed over. He was just in time to see this person about to lay a final attack on Chen Xiwei. How could he possibly endure that?
He unleashed his full power. His Lightning Element Talent suddenly activated, causing his meridians to surge with energy, like an erupting volcano.
Luo Yan Steps also activated at this moment.
Right now, Chu Mo was surrounded by a layer of dense purple lightning. The aura of destructive killing intent emitted from him was as if Hell had descended, emanating a terrifying pressure!
Feeling this aura, Xu Guang’s expression changed. “Who…who the hell are you?!”
“You talk too much!” Chu Mo didn’t say more, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes. He raised his hand and suddenly smashed a fist towards Xu Guang.
Boom!
The sound of air breaking suddenly rang out. Like thunder on a clear day, like huge waves pounding the shore.
Within a radius of several dozen meters, gusts of air were stirred up.
With the Lightning Element Talent empowering him, his tens of thousands of kilograms of strength had been amplified fivefold!
It was over fifty thousand kilograms of force smashing down!
Xu Guang’s expression greatly changed.
Seeing this punch about to land, at this critical juncture, he hastily circulated his energy while raising his saber to block.
In an instant, the fist and saber met.
But almost at the same time, Xu Guang felt his saber-holding hand make a cracking sound, while a huge force surged through the saber. The vast power instantly sent him flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood in midair.
He fell to the ground with a thud like a rag doll.
He stared at Chu Mo with wide eyes, about to speak, but spat out another mouthful of blood.
Just one punch and that was enough to heavily injure him, a Mid-Stage Martial Artist!
“How is this possible! How can you have such monstrous strength!? How could I lose to you!!” Xu Guang roared, gnashing his teeth. As the number one prodigy of Changfeng Base with a High-Grade Saber Talent, he was used to being unrivaled among his peers. But now, he had been defeated by an unknown Martial Artist!
His face was full of disbelief but what followed was endless fear.
He was now heavily injured, while the opponent before him had such an overwhelming aura, seeming determined to beat him to death.
The enemy was strong while he was weak. If the fight continued, wouldn’t he die here?
[No! I’m a prodigy with a great future ahead, how can I die at the hands of a nobody like this!? I need to escape!] In this instant, this thought flashed through Xu Guang’s mind.
Just as the thought emerged, his figure rapidly retreated, wanting to flee from here.
However…
“Trying to leave? It won’t be that easy!”
