Dragon King Hall's Legend-Chapter 1696: Reunion with Zhao Lin’er! Falling into Disadvantage!

"Boom boom!!"

The four corpse arms struck simultaneously, truly shaking the heavens and the earth, with the world quaking, its power unstoppable!

Mu Jinyu felt overwhelmed, quickly turned around and ran.

Of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to completely expose his back, defenseless.

As he ran, he continuously swung his Firewood Knife Divine Weapon behind him, slashing it dozens of times, fully displaying his current limit in wielding the blade!

"Bang bang bang!!"

The sound of metal clashing rang out. Although the four corpse arms weren't severed, they were riddled with wounds, causing the youth engulfed in evil mist to roar louder and louder!

"Whoosh!!"

Mu Jinyu quickly stepped onto his Flying Sword, swiftly flying away!

Trying to distance himself from the Desolate Tomb!

"Damn it!"

"Don't let me see you again!"

The angry and exasperated roars of the youth came from behind.

Mu Jinyu thought that given how terrifying those corpse arms were, they couldn't be fast, right?

So he assumed they couldn't catch him, or perhaps didn't want to delay their feeding, thus giving up the chase?

Mu Jinyu didn't know the exact reason, but at least he was safe!

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

Just as Mu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to distance himself from the Desolate Tomb, suddenly, three light shadows came from afar, heading straight for him!

"Hmm?"

Mu Jinyu had recently encountered several unfriendly humans and wasn't keen on engaging with them now. Seeing someone approaching, he immediately darted sideways, ready to change direction and avoid them!

However, his intention to avoid friction and unnecessary conflict wasn't shared by others!

"Die!!"

"Haha... such luck to run into you, boy!"

A chilling laugh followed by the dispersing of red light revealed someone from Dongyue Mansion, Zhao Lin'er, who had minor conflicts with him before entering the ruins!

Seeing this woman, Mu Jinyu's heart slightly sank, feeling a bit uneasy!

In truth, Mu Jinyu didn't have any deep-seated hatred toward Zhao Lin'er.

It's just that she doubted he possessed the power to defeat a Void Breaking Realm cultivator, insisted on challenging him, and ultimately lost before many peers.

It cost her face, leaving her utterly disgraced.

However, in these ruins filled with countless foreign races, such minor conflicts were trivial, and they should join forces due to their common origin from Dongyue Mansion.

But this was merely his wishful thinking; Zhao Lin'er might not view it the same way.

Perhaps she felt he didn't give her any face, and encountering him alone in the ruins was the perfect time for revenge?

"Oh, it's you, senior! What a coincidence." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Mu Jinyu's mind raced, thinking it wasn't the right moment to clash with Zhao Lin'er.

After all, there was still a powerful Corpse-Eating Ghost behind him, which hadn't pursued yet, but a commotion might draw it back, turning things catastrophic.

Another reason was his belief in taking down Zhao Lin'er being straightforward, but with her having two allies whose power seemed to be at the middle or even late stage of the Void Breaking Realm, it became uncertain to swiftly resolve them.

Thus, Mu Jinyu intended to feign cooperation with Zhao Lin'er while looking for an escape opportunity.

"Yeah, it's quite a coincidence! I was just looking across the world for you, planning to skin you and eat you alive, and you ran right into me! Hahaha, what luck..."

Zhao Lin'er's crimson eyes were fixed on Mu Jinyu, emitting a chilling laugh.

At this moment, the two light shadows beside her lost their glow, revealing two silhouettes.

Unfortunately for Mu Jinyu, they were not fellow Dongyue Mansion members.

If they had been Dongyue Mansion members, Mu Jinyu thought he might persuade them to stop Zhao Lin'er from going insane, possibly even having them join his team.

Given he had showcased his strength before entering the ruins, far superior to Zhao Lin'er!

Inducing them to abandon Zhao Lin'er and team up with him wasn't impossible!

But they weren't from Dongyue Mansion, making it significantly harder to persuade them to ally with him.

After all, he wasn't a beautiful woman, and his cultivation superficially appeared only at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm, with no compelling reason for them to abandon Zhao Lin'er to join him.

In his shoes, Mu Jinyu wouldn't make such a choice either!

"Together, kill that guy for me!"

With a surge of Demonic Qi, Zhao Lin'er shouted to the two by her side, commanding them to surround and attack Mu Jinyu!

"Bang bang bang!!"

The two did not utter a word, exchanged glances, and immediately drew their weapons, attacking Mu Jinyu!

Mu Jinyu had no choice, vigorously swinging his Firewood Knife to fend off their combined advances, while persuading:

"Senior, there's no need for this, right? We don't have any deep-seated hatred, do we? Is it necessary to kill me over it?"

"We're all Dongyue Mansion members; shouldn't we team up and support each other in such perilous ruins?"

"And you two, I'm from Dongyue Mansion; if you dare to kill me, aren't you afraid our academy's three instructors would make you suffer?"

"..."

To save his life, Mu Jinyu rambled, trying to emotionally connect with Zhao Lin'er while threatening the other two against involving themselves!

"Bullshit!"

Zhao Lin'er rose in anger upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, cursing: "You humiliated me in front of everyone, and you call that no deep-seated hatred? No one has ever dared to humiliate me like that! You're dead today!"

"Still thinking of teaming up with me, you're dreaming!"

As Zhao Lin'er vented her anger at Mu Jinyu's shamelessness, she suddenly felt her pressure increase, realizing the two began hesitating in their attacks after hearing Mu Jinyu's threats!

Leaving her almost battling Mu Jinyu alone, starting to fall behind!

Fortunately, they didn't just stand by and allow Mu Jinyu to attack, or else she might already have been in mortal danger.

Seeing this, Zhao Lin'er struggled to repel Mu Jinyu's aggressive assault while reprimanding them: "What are you afraid of? Not only is death normal in these ruins, but those instructors will never know it was us who killed him, let alone he's just a new junior member with no Soul Lamp Life Token back at Dongyue Mansion. Just kill him with me and I'll give you all the stuff I just acquired!"

Upon hearing Zhao Lin'er's final words, the eyes of her two companions lit up, instantly attacking with full force, every strike a life-and-death killing technique, placing Mu Jinyu back into a disadvantage!

Even putting his life in danger!

Because among them, one unexpectedly exceeded Mu Jinyu's expectations, reaching the Late Broken Void Realm Stage, initially able to manipulate Domain, restricting his movements, leaving him very passive and struggling to resist!

"Damn, I must escape!"

Mu Jinyu initially thought there might be a chance to kill Zhao Lin'er and flee, but seeing the situation growing increasingly unfavorable, he gritted his teeth, fiercely broke through the Domain restricting his movements, and fled behind!

Towards the Desolate Tomb!
