Chapter 5827: Farewell to the Third Princess
Upon hearing Long Chen's voice, Huai Yushan abruptly stopped her movements. Just at that moment, a figure silently appeared on the arena. As soon as this figure emerged, a burst of cheers erupted from the Undying Abyssal Willow clan's rear, indicating that this person held a high position within the Undying Abyssal Willow clan.
The way this figure appeared was extremely peculiar, as if he had directly "grown" from the arena. The figure shifted from intangible to solid, revealing a tall and aloof-looking man on the arena.
"Substitution Technique?" Long Chen was startled. This person's entrance method was indeed strange, but his powerful wood-based energy gave Long Chen a clue about his ability. This kind of entrance was indeed astonishing. Moreover, if he wanted, he could absorb the arena's power. After all, the arena was a part of a terrifying powerhouse's body. However, wouldn't that be considered cheating?
"In front of the great Undying clan, you have no right to act recklessly. Regardless of how strong you are, you don't have that privilege. You're a group of people who will do anything to achieve your goals, yet you dare to flaunt your power in front of the Undying clan?" The man from the Undying Abyssal Willow clan said coldly.
"Such arrogance. State your name," Aguta said coldly.
"Undying Abyssal Willow Clan - Liu Chi." The man reported his name.
"Judging by the Undying clan's reaction, it seems you hold a high position here, but you're not Emperor Miao. Lanyin lost, and we're not satisfied. I came to challenge Emperor Miao. I intend to shatter the myth of Emperor Miao's invincibility and show the Undying clan what true strength is. Step aside; you're not my opponent. I want to challenge Emperor Miao of the Undying clan." Aguta said coldly.
"Haha, you think you can challenge Emperor Miao with just your qualifications? Do you really have what it takes?" Liu Chi sneered.
"Whether I have what it takes or not, we'll find out soon. Do you really want to fight me? Or is it that besides Lanyin, the Undying clan has no other Emperors left?" Aguta taunted.
"You really are..."
*Cough, cough...*
Just then, Huai Yushan began to cough violently. Her coughing was exceptionally loud and interrupted Liu Chi's speech. Huai Yushan's sudden coughing fit was entirely controlled by Long Chen. Their souls had remained connected all this time.
Huai Yushan was somewhat bewildered by Long Chen's actions and didn't understand why he did this. Liu Chi was taken aback by the sudden coughing and then displayed a look of enlightenment. He nodded to Huai Yushan, indicating his gratitude. He now understood that this guy was trying to trap him with his words to uncover the Undying clan's secrets.
You should know that the Undying clan members aren't very astute; they can be easily trapped. Aguta was about to extract information from Liu Chi when Huai Yushan interrupted. His eyes filled with anger, and he looked at Huai Yushan with a sinister expression.
"Do you really think you're so important? A Heavenly Saint disciple who stands at the forefront? Are you the strongest among the Undying clan's disciples?" Aguta sneered.
In response to Aguta's questioning, Huai Yushan wore a mocking expression on her lips. "I am Huai Yushan, from the Undying Dragon Huai clan. Among the young disciples of the Undying Dragon Huai clan, I rank sixth. However, among the entire Undying clan's young disciples, I'm number 9,527. The reason I've come to the front is simple: I have thick skin, and being in the front allows me to see better."
Long Chen began making up stories to disrupt their rhythm, as he still didn't understand what they were up to. However, he needed to prevent the Undying clan from leading them around by the nose.
"Do you think I'm a fool? Do you really believe that reason? Don't you want to fight me, or do you just look down on me?" Aguta sneered.
"She's not looking down on you but is afraid of losing to you!" At this moment, a soft voice rang out.
Within the Moeye Water Lily clan, a strange man in white robes with white hair appeared. This man had a pale face and white hair, giving him an appearance of premature aging.
He arrived at the edge of the arena and glanced at all the Undying clan's experts. With a faint smile, he said, "I will personally participate in the third round. Likewise, my target is Emperor Miao. Let's decide the match-up for the third round here. I want to see who my opponent will be."
Upon seeing the man in white robes with white hair, Long Chen's eyes filled with understanding. Finally, he grasped their intentions.
"For the third round, I will fight you," a melodious voice rang out. It carried an inherent nobility, gentleness without losing its dignity.
Upon hearing that voice, Long Chen was shocked. A figure that had haunted his dreams appeared beside Liu Ruyan. She still possessed the beauty and charm, but her youthful innocence had faded from her lovely face. In its place was a mature, steady, somber, and slightly melancholic expression.
In her youth, she was the Third Princess of Chu, a willful and capricious girl. However, after experiencing multiple separations and near-death experiences, she was no longer the same dreamy girl. She had become a brave warrior.
Her eyes were devoid of their former tenderness, replaced by a hint of sternness. When Long Chen saw her face clearly, his nose tingled, and tears nearly welled up. It was his own incompetence that had caused Chu Yao to endure so much suffering. She hadn't originally wanted to be strong but had been forced to because she had no one to rely on in the Phoenix Cry Empire.
Even in the Heavenly Wood Palace, she stood alone and had to face the brutal competition among her peers. Although Chu Yao never complained, the cultivation world was a harsh place. No one could become powerful without enduring hardship, and people like Chu Yao, who lacked background and resources, had to endure even more. Her strength was a testament to the immense hardship she had endured.
When Chu Yao appeared, her beautiful face, graceful figure, noble demeanor, and powerful aura instantly overwhelmed everyone.
What shocked Aguta and the others the most was that Chu Yao's aura was remarkably similar to Liu Ruyan's. Even their soul fluctuations were nearly identical. Aguta and the others suddenly realized something was amiss. If their suspicions were correct, Chu Yao's strength might be on par with Liu Ruyan's.
Although she didn't exude Emperor Miao's aura, the overwhelming pressure of her powerful aura was intimidating, and it was undoubtedly a terrifying opponent.
The man with white hair's pupils slightly contracted, but he then smiled faintly. "A human? Could it be that the great Undying clan has fallen so far that they need a human to uphold their honor?"
This remark unsettled Liu Ruyan, and it meant that Chu Yao couldn't act now. However, Huai Yushan stepped forward and said, "Let me handle this third round."
