Chapter 989 - 330: Resolution (Part 3)

They’d delivered themselves right to his doorstep—if he let them walk away again, that’d be downright impolite, like he was looking down on them.

Lin Zheyu slowly stood up, body shifting slightly as he headed toward a position closer to the depths of the Bloody Trial Ground.

He wasn’t going out right now.

He was making preparations first, so that once the aura shrouding this area dispersed, he could immediately rush toward the depths of the Bloody Trial Ground.

Find a scenic spot and use it as the burial ground for Wu Yixuan and his two companions.

...

The depths of the Bloody Trial Ground.

Wu Yiyi, who was sitting cross-legged in a secret chamber cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

"Xiaoxuan came too?"

"Is he here for Xiao Yu?"

Wu Yiyi muttered to himself.

He’d just received information from Wu Mingkun.

Wu Mingkun and Wu Yijie were not only the ones he’d sent to help Wu Yixuan hunt down Lin Zheyu, they were also there to protect and monitor Wu Yixuan’s movements.

"With Mingkun and Yijie there, Xiaoxuan’s safety shouldn’t be a problem."

"Let him handle this himself."

Wu Yiyi said softly.

He closed his eyes again and continued the cultivation he’d just been doing.

Time flowed by slowly.

The cultivators immersed in cultivation gradually awoke, excitement spreading across their faces.

Guarding outside the area, Wu Yixuan raised his brows slightly, joy flashing in his eyes.

"Go, catch up!"

Watching the light beam line shift, Wu Yixuan’s body shot forward, chasing after it.

At the instant he moved.

Lin Zheyu moved as well.

There was a booming crash beneath his feet as he burst forward, speeding toward the depths of the Bloody Trial Ground at a pace roughly twenty percent faster than Wu Yixuan’s.

He wasn’t worried at all that the three of them wouldn’t be able to keep up.

Just from the way the three of them looked, he could tell they’d used some powerful Secret Technique or Magical Treasure again.

"Damn!"

"So the rumors that Xiao Yu awakened Spirit Divine Techniques were true after all—looks like he’s sensed us."

Wu Yixuan gradually realized something was off, his brows knitting slightly.

He pondered for a moment, then said to the two beside him, "You two are faster, don’t worry about me. Go ahead and cut that guy off."

"Got it!"

Wu Mingkun said in a deep voice.

The energy within him erupted with a roar, and his and Wu Yijie’s speed soared in an instant. Guided by the Celestial Patrol Mirror, they closed in on Lin Zheyu at a shocking speed.

The distance between them grew shorter and shorter.

Gradually, Wu Mingkun and Wu Yijie were already able to see that burly figure up ahead.

At this moment, Lin Zheyu hadn’t activated the Heavenly Deceit Skill, nor had he used the Golden Body Dharma Aspect—precisely to lull Wu Yixuan’s trio into lowering their guard.

Then hit them with a sudden, lethal strike.

"Interesting..."

"Wu Yixuan really is considerate—he actually knows how to create a perfect opening for my attack."

Lin Zheyu’s lips curled slightly, a faint smile appearing.

Rumble!

His speed suddenly spiked again as the Heavenly Deceit Skill roared into motion.

"Huh?!"

"Where’d he go?!"

Watching Lin Zheyu inexplicably vanish from his Perception, Wu Mingkun’s expression changed drastically.

Beside him, Wu Yijie also showed a look of surprise.

But very quickly, his face abruptly shifted, and he whipped around, sprinting wildly back toward where Wu Yixuan was.

"This is bad!"

Wu Mingkun sensed something wrong as well, his face instantly changing.

He slammed his legs down, the ground beneath exploding into a terrifying pit as he dashed toward Wu Yixuan at astonishing speed.

"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu—no matter how powerful your talent, how monstrous your aptitude, so what?!"

"Mortals are still mortals—how could you possibly compare to us Ancient Martial Families?"

"I won’t let you die so easily—that’d be too cheap for you. I’m going to make you taste..."

"..."

Wu Yixuan poured all his strength into his legs, sprinting madly toward the depths of the demon lair.

A cold smile appeared on his face; in his mind, he was already fantasizing about how he’d torment and humiliate Xiao Yu later.

Only that would be enough to repay the grudge of that day!

"Heard you were looking for me?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from right beside him, and the smile on Wu Yixuan’s face froze.

A powerful Perception spread out, but within that perception, he couldn’t pinpoint where the voice was coming from at all.

In an instant, Wu Yixuan’s face changed dramatically.

This was the depths of the demon lair—the terrifying battlefield known as the Bloody Trial Ground. Inside weren’t just countless demons and fiends of terrifying strength.

There were also powerful cultivators from the Barbarian Race, Ancient Demons, the Sea Race, heretical sects, and other races and factions.

"No, this voice is so familiar..."

"It’s..."

"Xiao Yu!"

Wu Yixuan’s eyes flew wide open, disbelief flooding his gaze.

How was that possible.

Wasn’t Xiao Yu up ahead? Wu Mingkun and Wu Yijie had already gone after him—how could that bastard suddenly show up here!

Wu Yixuan’s mind raced, cold sweat instantly beading across his forehead.

He didn’t know where the voice came from, didn’t know where Xiao Yu was hiding, didn’t know when the other party would launch a sneak attack...

The fear of not knowing the position made Wu Yixuan’s body start trembling uncontrollably.

His right hand slapped toward his storage pouch, a streak of light flashing...

Pu—

The moment Wu Yixuan’s hand struck the storage pouch, a massive fist covered in purple-black Scale Armor suddenly blasted out of the darkness.

Wu Yixuan had no awareness of it at all.

Only when he felt the fierce wind and his body hair stood on end did he realize something was wrong.

"Damn it!"

Wu Yixuan cursed, the surging purple Bloodline Power in his body erupting outward.

However, he was no Wu Yiyi.

Wu Yixuan had only just broken into the Shackled Realm—before Lin Zheyu, he was as weak as an ant.
