Chapter 5828: The Ferocious Aguta
When Huai Yushan spoke, the formidable members of the Undying Ming Willow clan were taken aback. The Undying Dragon Huai clan served as the protectors of the Undying Ming Willow clan. While the Undying Ming Willow clan had never doubted their loyalty, the matter at hand was of immense importance. The Undying clan couldn't afford to lose, even though they could sense that Huai Yushan possessed formidable strength, it was just that, formidable.
Just from the fluctuation in her aura, Huai Yushan might not even make it into the top one hundred of the young experts of the Undying Ming Willow clan. Now that she wanted to participate in the third round, it put the Undying Ming Willow clan in a difficult position. The beautiful woman gazed at Huai Yushan, then cast a glance at Long Chen, as if she had understood something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
Chu Yao looked at Huai Yushan and said, "Sister, this matter not only concerns the dignity of the Undying clan but also my sister's reputation. I..."
Although Chu Yao was from the Human race, that wasn't a valid reason to refuse her. The Magic Eye Sleeping Lotus could accept mixed blood from different races, and she had a soul connection with Liu Ruyan. In a sense, they were evenly matched, and no one could say otherwise.
Chu Yao still hoped to participate in the third round herself because she had absolute confidence in her strength, and she also knew that they couldn't afford to lose the third round.
Huai Yushan looked at Chu Yao and softly recited, "The dragon travels across the seas for thousands of miles, the phoenix departs from the wutong tree to accompany the nine provinces..."
"You..."
Upon hearing Huai Yushan's words, Chu Yao and Liu Ruyan trembled all over. Chu Yao, in particular, was shaking uncontrollably, her jade hand covering her cherry lips, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"How... how did you..."
This was something she had said at the Fengming Lantern Festival in the Phoenix Empire. At that time, she had already submitted to fate and simply wanted to confess her feelings to Long Chen before dying. Later, Long Chen responded with "Life and death won't separate us, we'll be together until we grow old," which was a poem and also the oath they made to each other.
However, everything that happened afterward actually came true. After leaving the Phoenix Empire, the two of them encountered nothing but bloodshed and chaos, and in the world-ending battle on the Tianwu Continent, everyone had disappeared, their fates unknown.
She and Liu Ruyan were brought into the Undying Ming Willow clan, and they carried the burden of longing for Long Chen in their hearts every moment. The pain was indescribable with words.
The only thing that could comfort her was knowing that there was someone she could talk to about him, about their past, and this was the driving force that kept her going. Now, hearing these two lines of poetry, Chu Yao was so excited that she couldn't say a word. Seeing Chu Yao's expression, Long Chen's heart ached, and he spoke through Huai Yushan:
"The third round is mine. After all these years, when have I ever let you down?"
Hearing Huai Yushan's tone, Chu Yao's tears welled up instantly. She knew that the guy she had longed for had finally arrived. Chu Yao covered her cherry lips with her jade hand and nodded vigorously. In this world, there was no one more reliable than him.
The beautiful woman of the Undying Ming Willow clan, seeing the excitement in Liu Ruyan and Chu Yao's eyes, had a hint of understanding in her eyes. At the same time, she frowned, revealing a trace of worry, and sighed lightly but ultimately didn't say anything.
So, the third round was settled like this. At this moment, Aguta and the white-haired man both wore triumphant smiles, their conspiracy having succeeded. Seeing their smiles, Long Chen's lips curled into a mocking expression: "With your limited intelligence and childish methods, you're only worthy of using such low-level tricks. Just wait, I'll teach you how to be a decent person."
"Alright, now that the third round is set, there's no need for further talk. End the battle within three moves!" After their successful conspiracy, Aguta seemed to lose patience. He squatted down abruptly, and at that moment, thirteen dragon veins appeared behind him. As they emerged, they flowed into his helmet, shoulder armor, elbow guards, knee guards, and iron shoes.
Boom! With Aguta's squat, the arena suddenly exploded. At that moment, the atmosphere in the world suddenly grew heavy. Aguta's armor shone brightly, and his blood was ignited in an instant. This raging power was many times stronger than before.
"Die!" At this moment, Aguta was fully illuminated. The runes on his armor and the diamond club in his hand were constantly changing, and his power was boundless.
"It's actually a set!" Long Chen was slightly surprised. He realized that Aguta's armor and the runes on the diamond club were connected, forming a rare set of equipment. Long Chen had been on the path for many years, and he had seen very few sets of equipment. This was because crafting such sets required a high level of skill and consumed a vast amount of mental energy.
In Guo Ran's words, the art of crafting sets of equipment had been lost for many generations, and few people could create sets anymore. If it weren't for the assistance of Xia Chen, a runemaster, Long Chen's journey in creating a set of equipment would have come to an end a long time ago. Now, most of the sets that appeared consisted of four pieces or more and were mostly ancient artifacts passed down from the era of chaos. The fact that this guy had thirteen pieces of a set, and a top-grade set at that, showed just how determined the Magic Eye Sleeping Lotus clan was to win this battle. They had deliberately lost the first round, betting all their chips on the second and third rounds.
With Aguta taking the stage, his provocations and coordination with the white-haired man were actually all part of an act, designed to determine the lineup for the third round. Now that the third round had been decided, Aguta couldn't be bothered to act anymore and unleashed his full power.
When Aguta unleashed his full power, his armor shone brightly, and the arena exploded. His aura, like a tsunami, swept through the heavens and the earth. The strong members of the Undying clan erupted in amazement. They hadn't expected Aguta to be so formidable.
"Hehe, looking down on the mixed-blood? Today, I'll show you what true mixed-blood power is." Aguta grinned widely, revealing a row of large teeth, like a raging beast, and charged forward.
Buzz! He produced a huge halo, and the tremendous impact created a sonic burst. Before the halo could even expand, Aguta had already arrived in front of Liu Chi.
Liu Chi had already formed hand seals, and in the resounding emptiness, ninety-nine shields appeared in front of him. Each shield was covered in endless runes, radiating vast life energy.
Facing the raging Aguta, Liu Chi didn't dare to be careless. He immediately unleashed his most powerful defensive move.
Boom! However, these eighty-one shields, resembling city walls, were instantly pierced by a divine light. The divine light flew past, and the upper half of Liu Chi's body disappeared instantly. The divine light stopped and transformed into Aguta's appearance. Aguta struck the ground with the diamond club and a mocking expression crossed his lips:
"I thought you could withstand my three moves. I overestimated you." At that moment, the strong members of the Undying clan had stiff expressions, and the entire arena fell into silence.
