Lightning Body?
Ye Qiu was stunned.
As he puzzled over it, exclamations rang out around him.
“Heavens, An Ruoxi is actually the legendary Lightning Body!”
“No wonder his speed is so fast!”
“With a Lightning Body, one possesses peerless, unmatched speed!”
“When the Lightning Body reaches great completion, in terms of speed, it can crush even Saint realm powerhouses!”
In the distance, Wei Wuji also wore a shocked expression.
“I wondered why Brother An was so confident he could kill Ye Changsheng. So he is a Lightning Body.”
Wei Wuji sighed in admiration.
From what he knew, over tens of thousands of years, there had only been a handful of Lightning Bodies. Each one ended up as a world-shaking powerhouse renowned in their region.
An Ruoxi was a Lightning Body and the Holy Son of the Mending Heaven Sect. His future was bright.
As long as he maintained a good relationship with An Ruoxi, in the future, An Ruoxi would become a major asset to him.
With this thought, Wei Wuji’s expression grew somewhat excited.
Yun Xi’s pretty face was grave.
An Ruoxi was a Lightning Body, plus peak Cavern Heaven cultivation. Ye Qiu was in danger.
“Holy Maiden, I never expected An Ruoxi to be a Lightning Body. I am afraid Ye Changsheng cannot hold him off,” a female cultivator from the Qingyun Sword Sect behind her said.
Yun Xi said nothing. She glanced at Ye Qiu, then at An Ruoxi. She already had a decision in her heart.
If Ye Qiu could not hold off An Ruoxi, then she would unhesitatingly step in to help Ye Qiu.
No matter what, she could not let Ye Qiu die at An Ruoxi’s hands.
She still wanted to fight Ye Qiu.
Only now did Ye Qiu fully understand why the God-Striking Whip could not bind An Ruoxi. It was because An Ruoxi was a Lightning Body, possessing incomparable speed. Absolute speed could break through all bindings.
“Damn it, this bastard actually has a special physique. This is trouble.”
The Longbrow Immortal cursed. He turned back to Mo Tianji and asked: “Junior Brother, can you give the little brat a few more talismans?”
“That talisman contained the power of words becoming law. It consumed most of my cultivation…” Before Mo Tianji finished, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. His face paled.
The Longbrow Immortal jumped in fright: “Junior Brother, are you alright?”
“No harm done.” Mo Tianji wiped the blood from his mouth and smiled faintly.
The Longbrow Immortal frowned and said: “Little brat, that fellow’s speed is too fast. What are we to do?”
Ye Qiu had no ideas either.
At this moment, Lin Daniao walked over and said softly: “Big Brother, things have come to this. I think we should just flee.”
Thump!
The Longbrow Immortal knocked a chestnut on Lin Daniao’s forehead. It hurt so much that Lin Daniao sucked in cold air.
“Daoist, why did you hit me?” Lin Daniao was somewhat displeased.
“You pig brain!” The Longbrow Immortal said irritably: “That fellow is a Lightning Body, with peerless speed. Can we escape?”
“Daoist, do you not have Saint array patterns?” Lin Daniao reminded him.
The Longbrow Immortal paused: “Right, I have Saint array patterns.”
Then, the Longbrow Immortal beamed with joy and said: “Little brat, let us flee.”
“This poor Daoist will activate the Saint array patterns. We can definitely leave this place.”
Ye Qiu did not want to leave.
First, the Undying Mountain was covered in restrictions outside. Whether the Saint array patterns could break them was hard to say.
Second, if he left, Yun Xi would be in great danger. After all, Wei Wuji had long wanted Yun Xi.
If he left, Yun Xi would face Wei Wuji and An Ruoxi alone. Her chances were slim.
Third, Ye Qiu was a proud person. Since his debut, he had never feared anyone in the same realm. If he fled now, even if he survived, he would see it as a disgrace.
It might even become his heart demon.
Seeing Ye Qiu silent for a long time, the Longbrow Immortal grew impatient: “Little brat, what are you daydreaming about?”
“Did you hear me?”
“Are you worried about Yun Xi? Call her. We flee together.”
Ye Qiu shook his head and said: “I do not want to flee.”
“At a time like this, still not fleeing?” The Longbrow Immortal was furious: “Do you want to die here?”
“I still have trump cards. An Ruoxi cannot kill me.” Ye Qiu still had the Xuanyuan Sword and Universe Cauldron. He believed he would not die easily.
It was just that An Ruoxi was a Lightning Body with speed too fast. This gave him a headache.
If he could match An Ruoxi in speed, then he could turn the tide.
“But what method can increase speed?”
As Ye Qiu pondered, An Ruoxi’s voice rang out again: “Ye Changsheng, stop wasting time.”
“I am a Lightning Body. My speed crushes you.”
“I broke through to peak Cavern Heaven earlier than you. You cannot possibly be my opponent.”
“So, today, you will surely die.”
When Ye Qiu heard the words “peak Cavern Heaven”, a flash of lightning seemed to streak through his mind.
Ye Qiu suddenly laughed.
“Little brat, what are you laughing at? You are about to die. How can you still laugh?” The Longbrow Immortal saw Ye Qiu laugh and found it baffling.
Ye Qiu said: “After I broke through earlier, I only thought of fair duels with geniuses to improve my combat experience. I overlooked some things.”
“Fortunately, An Ruoxi just reminded me. It made me remember.”
“Though he is a Lightning Body, I have trump cards too. I may not lose to him.”
With that, Ye Qiu put away the God-Striking Whip. He even thrust the Seven-Coloured Blazing Sun Sword into the ground, discarding his weapon.
“What are you doing?” The Longbrow Immortal asked.
“Slaughter him.” Ye Qiu smiled faintly and strode forward.
“Little brat, you…” The Longbrow Immortal wanted to ask what method Ye Qiu would use to kill An Ruoxi. But before he finished, he suddenly noticed Ye Qiu’s aura had changed.
If Ye Qiu had seemed somewhat dejected after being sent flying several times by An Ruoxi before, now, Ye Qiu was like a divine sword.
The divine sword unsheathed, its edge fully revealed!
At this moment, others also clearly felt that Ye Qiu brimmed with powerful confidence.
Even as he stepped forward, his face wore a relaxed smile.
“It seems Ye Changsheng still wants to clash with An Ruoxi!”
“An Ruoxi’s speed is so fast. How can he be An Ruoxi’s opponent!”
“Could it be that Ye Changsheng thinks he can still reverse the situation?”
The crowd was puzzled.
“How can he smile like that?”
An Ruoxi also noticed the change in Ye Qiu. His eyes narrowed slightly, then quickly returned to normal.
As the Holy Son of the Mending Heaven Sect, a genius with a Lightning Body, he feared no one!
An Ruoxi said loudly: “Ye Changsheng, whatever means you have, use them.”
“Though no means can change the outcome, if you do not use them now, you will never have the chance.”
Ye Qiu laughed: “Want to see my ultimate move? Fine, I will indulge you.”
“Putting on airs…” Before An Ruoxi’s words finished, his pupils shrank sharply. A golden fist smashed into his chest.
