Gu Ruoyun only smiled calmly in the face of the group’s good intentions. She then slowly pushed Dong Fang’s hand away and slowly made her way onto the stage.
Her footsteps were extremely slow and very graceful. It caused everyone’s breath to quicken as they stared fixedly at her.
Those who had once viewed Gu Ruoyun with cold disdain could not help but sit up and take notice of her!
After all, Su Lin’s attacks have clearly shown her vicious nature yet Gu Ruoyun still wanted to fight her despite the circumstances. How could anyone not admire such fearlessness?
However, it was only admiration and was not worth imitation! Even though she was stepping onto the stage, she would most certainly die!
“Gu Ruoyun, I thought that you would retreat, I didn’t expect you to come onstage.”
Su Lin laughed icily and her eyes were filled with a savage light. Her gaze was like a poisoned dagger, piercing violently into her opponent’s heart.
“I’ve promised Mu Ying that I would avenge him.”
The green-robed woman stood tall in the arena, her dark, fine hair fluttered in the wind. Her calm voice brushed across the gentle breeze, landing into the ears of the crowd.
Mu Ying’s lips twitched as gratitude flashed across his eyes. Logically speaking, Gu Ruoyun had previously saved them to avoid getting eliminated in the first round. Now that the elimination round has ended, there was no longer any need for her to still protect them.
However, not only had this woman used a pill to save his life, she had even said these things in front of Su Lin for him.
“Perhaps I’ll never be able to pay her back for this in this entire lifetime.” Mu Ying laughed bitterly.
Even though Su Lin had attacked him because of Gu Ruoyun, he understood that when faced with Su Lin in the competition, she would never have spared him regardless of whether she has a grudge or not.
It was just like what Leng Shang had faced in the previous round.
Su Lin had nothing against him yet she had crippled him of his powers in the end!
Just as Mu Ying and the others began to lament, Su Lin’s sharp and sinister voice rang out from the arena once again, “Hehe, you want to avenge him? I think that it’ll be difficult for you to save your own neck yet you’re thinking of others? Gu Ruoyun, I had given you a chance and you chose not to value it. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for my cruelty!”
Boom!
The power of a refined state cultivator exploded from Su Lin’s body, creating a hurricane in the entire arena.
However, Gu Ruoyun has encountered cultivators at the refined state before. Therefore, she could sense the instability in Su Lin’s aura. After all, a cultivator who had used a spell to rise to the refined state was completely different from those who have had a breakthrough on their own!
“Gu Ruoyun, go to hell!”
Whoosh!
The gale surrounding Su Lin’s body formed a large vortex in front of her. From afar, the powerful energy contained within the vortex looked like a large, gaping mouth, ready to swallow everyone around it!
The vortex-like hurricane then flew directly towards Gu Ruoyun, widening its mouth and aiming to swallow her whole…
“Gu Ruoyun, even though you’re at the late-stage of the exceptional state, I’ve already broken through to the refined state. The difference in power between us is far too great and you’re simply no match for me! You will now experience dying with a thousand cuts from within this vortex!”
Su Lin spat fiercely. When Gu Ruoyun was consumed by the vortex, the venom in her eyes did not diminish but increased instead.
“This is bad!”
Mu Ying’s expression changed as his eyes darkened, “Based on the situation, Lady Gu is no match for Su Lin…”
