Chapter 5891: Slaughtering Luyao
Long Chen’s words made the short man’s smile instantly vanish. His gaze turned venomous, and strands of blood appeared in his eyes. A chilling killing intent surged from him, filling the air.
“This killing intent… he’s definitely killed countless lifeforms!”
The Undying race’s experts were startled by his killing intent. Even their senior members grew uneasy. None of them had expected the Devil Eye Water Lily race to have three such terrifying existences among their disciples.
“So, you’re Long Chen?” the short man said with a sinister tone. “I’ve heard of your strength. But no matter how powerful you are, you won’t be leaving the Sea of Oblivion alive.”
“What’s the point of barking threats?” Long Chen replied lazily. “We’ll find out who’s dying soon enough.”
Liu Qingyu was already walking onto the stage. At the same time, the rest of the Devil Eye Water Lily race’s heavenly geniuses retreated, leaving only Luyao behind.
The two of them gazed at each other from opposite ends of the martial stage.
As this place was the Devil Eye Water Lily race’s home ground, they had countless experts present and released heaven-shaking cheers for Luyao.
Those who could come here were all figures with reputation and status in the Devil Eye Water Lily race. Their thunderous cheers shook the heavens, setting Luyao’s blood ablaze. At this moment, he stood as the embodiment of their glory.
“Pitiful fellow, you’re about to die. Do you have any final words?” said Luyao.Luyao crossed his arms, his massive figure rooted like a mountain. The sheer weight of his presence pressed down on the arena.
“Can I start?” asked Liu Qingyu mildly.
“Go ahead.”
Luyao extended a hand, inviting his opponent to attack. It seemed he didn’t view Liu Qingyu as a threat at all.
However, Liu Ruyan and the others noticed dark currents flowing between Luyao’s feet. A powerful pressure was slowly rising out of him. Though Luyao appeared composed, he was secretly preparing to end the battle with a single devastating move.
Liu Ruyan and the others simply sneered when they saw this. Perhaps such a sinister trick would be effective on someone else, but against them, it was a joke.
After all, they had died countless times, each death honing their senses. It was impossible for them to not notice such trickery.
“Then I won’t hold back!” Liu Qingyu suddenly shouted, summoning his manifestation of a giant willow tree.
The moment his thirteen heaven veins ignited, the martial stage started to tremble. His qi waves scoured against heaven and earth, twisting the space.
“What?!”
The Devil Eye Water Lily race’s experts were finally stunned. They had gravely underestimated Liu Qingyu. His aura had been concealed all along.
But it wasn’t just him. Long Chen had instructed everyone to suppress their aura at all times—to strike with overwhelming force when the moment was right.
Now, Liu Qingyu was like a wild beast that had been freed from its cage. His power surged higher and higher with no sign of stopping, startling even Lian Sanqiang.
“Not good, I have to stop him!” muttered Luyao to himself.
Sensing the shift, Luyao panicked. He couldn’t just wait and let Liu Qingyu raise his aura to the max.
BOOM!
An explosion erupted beneath his feet. Countless spread, forming an enormous ripple—It was a trap that Luyao had quietly prepared beforehand. He wanted to bait Liu Qingyu into entering it.
This was a very powerful technique but fatally flawed. It required the target to come to it and had to be cast in advance. Unfortunately, Liu Qingyu didn’t fall for it.
Abandoning the trap, Luyao roared. The lily leaf formation beneath his feet vanished, and he channeled all its energy into a single punch. Shockingly, that lily leaf diagram was now branded on his fist.
“Devil Lily Meteor Fist!”
There was no doubt—Luyao was a peak expert. Even with his initial strategy ruined, he instantly adapted, converting the trap’s power into a deadly strike.
“I’ll take that punch of yours!”
Liu Qingyu didn’t dodge. He spread his arms wide, welcoming the fist with his chest.
“What?!”
“This fellow is crazy!”
“Is he tired of living?”
BOOM!
Luyao’s punch landed directly on Liu Qingyu’s chest. Dozens of shimmering runic shields appeared to block the blow, but they shattered instantly.
Liu Qingyu’s chest split open, and his body cracked like porcelain.
Seeing this scene, Luyao laughed nastily.
So much for that explosive aura. All bark, no bite.
Just as Luyao was about to kill Liu Qingyu, Liu Qingyu gave him a sinister smile. Then, he heard a startled cry.
“Watch out!”
Luyao froze and looked down—willow branches had slithered around him like vipers, binding his arms, legs, and even his neck.
The void buzzed as the giant willow covered the entire stage, pulsing with energy.
In the blink of an eye, it erupted with power.
CRACK!
Luyao’s massive body was torn apart into five pieces. Blood sprayed across the stage like rain.
“What?!”
The Devil Eye Water Lily race’s experts were dumbstruck.
“This bastard! He used himself as bait! Luyao fell for it,” the elders roared furiously.
It was only now that they realized Liu Qingyu had sacrificed his body to draw Luyao into his trap. And Luyao had taken the bait perfectly.
But just then, Luyao’s dismembered body ignited. His Blood Qi surged, trying to pull the pieces back together.
He was attempting to restore himself.
“Undying Willow Burial Soul Flame—Die!”
Liu Qingyu’s eyes turned icy as he formed hand seals. His thirteen heaven veins lit up one final time and then faded.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Five deafening explosions rocked the stage, obliterating Luyao and his Yuan Spirit entirely. In the end, nothing was left.
The Devil Eye Water Lily race’s side fell utterly silent.
