Chapter 109: Chapter 103: Stop! Senior Brother Gu, You Have Won! (Double Chapter)

Gu Yuan had another plan in mind and didn’t want to waste energy on this person, so he decisively subdued him, avoiding a conflict.

"Senior Brother Gu indeed has impressive means. In that case, I’ll withdraw from Cloud Mist Valley..."

Seeing this, Junior Brother Yun was unwilling in his heart, but he understood that the gap between him and the person before him was too great. Although he felt guilty towards Senior Brother Deng, he had done his best.

After saying this, he took out the Cyan Jade Order, activated the token, and his figure slowly disappeared from Cloud Mist Valley.

Witnessing this scene, Gu Yuan chuckled inwardly but did not remove the Cloud-Walking Seal. Instead, he exerted himself to stir up the thick fog to conceal his form, feigning an intense internal battle.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side of the valley, Bian Chuyao and Senior Brother Deng’s struggle reached a fever pitch.

Senior Brother Deng’s hair flew wildly, and thunder flickered in his eyes, carrying an overwhelming aura.

Bian Chuyao held a crimson fire whip, her face solemn.

"Junior Sister Bian, you come from a great family, exceptionally talented, and adept in numerous skills. In the past, I would indeed be unable to defeat you!"

"But you meditate in your clan every day and haven’t ventured out for magical combat. I’m afraid you’re unaware of the tumultuous changes in the outside world..."

"Our Sunset Glow Sect has been battling fiercely in the Thundering Mountain Range for years. Several disciples under the Golden Core Sect have perished. Without formidable skills, how could anyone survive?"

"I’ve been fighting the Demon Race in the mountains for years, engaging in hundreds of battles, walking through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and encountering countless opportunities. How can you defeat me relying solely on the Dharma Seal bestowed by your clan?"

Senior Brother Deng strode forward, thunder burning like fire in his eyes, domineering and unrivaled. Golden thunder crashed towards Bian Chuyao like a thousand little snakes.

Bian Chuyao turned pale, a bit panicked, and couldn’t help but look towards the thick fog on the side.

Yet in the thick fog, Spiritual Qi churned violently, as if still locked in combat.

This rotten scoundrel, so impassioned before the battle, yet can’t even defeat a humble lineage disciple of the Sunset Glow Sect?

Bian Chuyao gritted her teeth, feeling the situation slipping away, but she wouldn’t admit defeat, pointing a finger and casting out the last Dharma Seal nurtured in her Dantian.

"Senior Brother Deng, I’m not afraid of you!"

"Roar!"

Golden flames flowed, forming the shape of a Flood Dragon. This dragon was lifelike, with scales and dragon whiskers emitting sparks, almost becoming corporeal, ferocious and tyrannical, attacking Senior Brother Deng.

But Senior Brother Deng pointed a finger, and a golden thunderbolt fell from the sky, shattering the Fire Flood Dragon into pieces in an instant, fire sparks scattering.

Bian Chuyao’s face turned ashen, seemingly unable to accept this outcome, but Senior Brother Deng pressed forward, with golden thunder shattering her Protective Seal and clipping several strands of her hair.

"Gu Yuan, are you still not taking action?!"

Bian Chuyao, unable to, could only summon her last bit of Qi strength, shouting towards the thick fog.

Yet in the fog, Spiritual Qi surged, but there was no answer.

"Junior Brother Yun’s spiritual sense may not be great, but his skills are almost on par with mine. Even if that Gu Senior Brother of yours can win, it wouldn’t be so easily."

"Take out the Cyan Jade Order and quickly return to the mountain. This time, I’ve won!"

Seeing that the magical combat in the fog continued, Senior Brother Deng also breathed a sigh of relief, pressing his advantage towards Bian Chuyao.

Bian Chuyao’s face was pale, but she was unwilling to admit defeat, merely looking towards the cloud and mist.

Could this scoundrel truly be incapable?

"Junior Sister Bian, don’t deceive yourself. Do you really want to sever the good relations between our two families?"

Senior Brother Deng’s expression turned cold, the thunder grew increasingly intense, endlessly entangling around Bian Chuyao.

Seeing this, Bian Chuyao had no choice but to sigh helplessly, taking out the Cyan Jade Order. Her figure gradually disappeared, but in the end, she left a cold remark:

"Senior Brother Gu is a person of great goodwill for our Bian family. Senior Brother Deng, don’t make a mistake either..."

...

...

Watching Bian Chuyao’s figure vanish into the Cloud Mist Valley, a smile appeared at the corner of Senior Brother Deng’s mouth.

"In the end, I’ve won this round!"

He then gently regulated his breath, restored his mana, and without stopping, strode forward into the fog on the side.

"Crash!"

But as soon as he entered the fog, his expression changed slightly.

"What a formidable concealment technique, to the point where even my spiritual sense can’t penetrate it!"

Beside him, an invisible golden thunderbolt of spiritual sense swirled continuously, probing everything around.

But the spiritual sense, normally effective within ninety feet, was now suppressed to within about ten feet, barely able to observe his immediate surroundings.

Yet he didn’t hesitate or panic, instead shouting aloud:

"Junior Brother Yun, fear not, for I have defeated Bian Chuyao and am coming to aid you!"

"Clang clang!"

But at this moment, amidst the clouded rain, brilliant sword Qi soared into the air, like hundreds of peach blossoms blooming simultaneously, stabbing towards him.

"So there’s still strength left to engage in magical combat with me?"

Seeing this swiftly approaching sharp sword Qi, Senior Brother Deng’s expression changed, a hint of unease rising in his heart.

"Golden Snake Shield Seal!"

He waved his wide sleeve, and a golden Dharma Seal appeared in no time, transforming into a three-zhang-long golden snake shadow coiling beside him.

On the snake shadow, blocks of golden scale armor shimmered brilliantly, appearing indestructible.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Countless sword Qi surged, but landed on the snake shadow’s scale armor, producing crisp clashing sounds, unable to break through. The Golden Snake even spiraled and hissed, devouring the sword Qi.

This seal was formidable, equally adept at attack and defense.

Seeing this, a more overwhelming power seemed to rise from within the thick fog. The pervading mist grew heavier, and the rain already pouring from the sky fell like a waterfall, relentlessly washing away any mark within the rain mist that didn’t belong to the master of the mist.
