Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 459 Are You Cheating?
Xing Cang was expressionless, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
“Of course!” Qiao Yu’s face showed regret. “If you have to blame someone, blame yourself, Young Master Xing Cang, for appearing too late!”
“It’s fine; Jianlin is not a bad choice.” Xing Cang waved his hand.
Bai Jianlin was utterly confused listening from the side. What was all this about?
When had this Tian E become his follower? His only follower had always been Tong Yu.
Oh well, let them be. Bai Jianlin shook his head, throwing all these doubts to the back of his mind. The moment he embraced apathy, he felt the world expand.
He didn’t want to waste his energy thinking about these things.
“Tian E!”
A playful voice rang out behind Qiao Yu. When Qiao Yu turned around, he saw An Liya’s beautiful smiling face.
“I knew the beast tide wouldn’t affect you!” An Liya seemed extremely happy to see Qiao Yu again.
But the others like Kai’Er weren’t so happy. A murderous glint even flashed in Kai’Er’s eyes!
If this damned Tian E hadn’t attracted that beast tide, his prestige as the Son of God wouldn’t have been damaged.
Moreover, An Liya’s attitude toward this Tian E was completely different from how she treated other men, which only strengthened Kai’Er’s resolve to kill Qiao Yu.
Kai’Er gave Mo Dun a look, and Mo Dun immediately understood.
Originally, he wasn’t planning on following Kai’Er’s orders anymore, but he couldn’t help it; Kai’Er offered too much.
Kai’Er had promised Mo Dun that once he graduated, he would make him a candidate for the God Guards. This was a huge temptation for Mo Dun.
Coming from an ordinary family, becoming a God Guard was like a carp leaping through the dragon gate for Mo Dun.
After all, the God Guards were the God Emperor’s personal guards. You had to look at the owner before hitting the dog. The God Guards held a very high position in the Western Alliance.
“Tian E! You still have the nerve to come back!”
Mo Dun roared with a stern face.
“You reported false information, causing so many students from other academies to die tragically. How dare you show your face in front of us!”
“Huh? What does that have to do with me? The Son of God told me to investigate, and the beast hordes I found could indeed be killed to increase strength.”
Qiao Yu spread his hands, looking innocent.
“You mean, it’s not your fault, it’s the Son of God’s fault?”
Mo Dun’s tone was filled with threat and coldness, but Qiao Yu acted as if he didn’t understand at all and even nodded.
“Yes, who else’s fault could it be but that brain-dead Son of God?”
As soon as Qiao Yu finished speaking, the scene instantly fell silent. Countless people were rendered speechless.
Kai’Er’s face was as black as a burnt pot.
As the son of the God Emperor, with his noble status, when had Kai’Er ever suffered such insults?
“Boy, you’re dead!”
A fierce light also flashed in Mo Dun’s eyes. He had originally wanted to find a reason to attack, but he didn’t expect this kid to be even more cooperative than he had imagined!
“Ice Emperor Flying Axe!”
A giant axe gleaming with cold light was thrown from Mo Dun’s hand, drawing a dark blue arc.
He originally had two giant axes, but one of them was shattered during the combat tournament.
Qiao Yu’s ghost pupils narrowed, and the trajectory of Mo Dun’s flying axe was immediately captured clearly.
During the combat tournament, Mo Dun couldn’t beat him even when he was seven or eight levels higher. Now that Mo Dun’s level was the same as his, he was even less of a match!
Qiao Yu took out the Scarlet Flame Hammer and unhesitatingly smashed it towards the flying giant axe.
Bang!
Mo Dun’s flying axe was smashed back. Mo Dun reached out to catch it, but the terrifying impact pushed him back more than a dozen steps before he barely managed to stabilize himself.
“Hmph! I didn’t expect you to have some strength!”
A solemn look flashed across Mo Dun’s face. Then, he didn’t dare to underestimate the Tian E in front of him and directly went all out.
Countless black纹路 climbed onto his body, and the black color was filled with an unspeakable sense of evil.
Those black纹路 slowly condensed, eventually forming a human-shaped tattoo behind Mo Dun.
Now, Mo Dun didn’t need Talsha to use Typhon’s tattoo anymore.
“Blizzard Twin Dragon Axe!”
Mo Dun roared and gripped the giant axe with both hands, heavily cleaving it down in the direction of Qiao Yu!
The moment the axe was cleaved, a vast axe light in the shape of a crescent moon swept towards Qiao Yu.
Mo Dun’s attack had once forced Qiao Yu and Ma Fei into a desperate situation.
But now, the same attack was not enough for Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu raised his ghost pupils. Mo Dun had seen the ghost pupils’ Thousand Weapon Path, so he couldn’t imitate Mo Dun’s moves.
But using the ghost pupils to capture Mo Dun’s flaws was more than enough.
The Scarlet Flame Hammer burst out with a violent heartbeat, then struck from below, colliding with Mo Dun’s giant axe.
A deafening roar erupted on the spot!
Mo Dun couldn’t help but open his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of blood, then his whole body flew out, crashing heavily to the ground.
On the other hand, Qiao Yu stood firmly in place, holding the hammer.
The difference between the two was immediately apparent!
Qiao Yu shook his head in his heart. Mo Dun’s strength was even inferior to Du Kaiwen’s.
Mo Dun’s miserable defeat made Kai’Er’s already unsightly face even more gloomy.
This Tian E was truly disgusting! A murderous intent flashed in Kai’Er’s eyes.
“Zi Yue, I don’t know if you have this feeling, but I always feel like that Tian E’s behavior is especially familiar to me.”
Ma Fei, in the bronze hall, fell into contemplation after witnessing Qiao Yu and Mo Dun’s battle.
“It seems a bit... but I can’t quite put my finger on it.” Zhao Ziyue was also somewhat puzzled.
But she and Ma Fei didn’t know anyone from the Western Alliance, so how could they feel a sense of familiarity towards someone from the Western Alliance?
“Forget it, never mind that. Let’s take advantage of the fact that Tian E is attracting the attention of others, let’s go!”
Ma Fei grabbed Zhao Ziyue’s hand and began to rush out of the bronze hall.
They had to seize this opportunity to slip away, otherwise, once Kai’Er and the others came back to their senses, they would really have no chance to escape.
Ma Fei had already investigated the bronze hall, and there was nothing of value inside at all. He had no idea what the bronze hall was for.
However, they had only taken a few steps when Qu Ji blocked their path with his sword.
“You want to escape after taking the secret of the bronze hall? What a pipe dream!” Qu Ji pointed his sword at Ma Fei.
“There’s nothing in the bronze hall. You can go see for yourselves! If you insist on stopping me, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Ma Fei glared, and a powerful sword aura rose from his body.
During the time he had disappeared, he had been studying with the Sword King.
Combining the sword dao essence of Ji Pingyang and the Sword King, Ma Fei had faintly felt the threshold of touching sword intent.
“Impolite to me? With that broken sword of yours that I cut off?” Qu Ji laughed as if he had heard a joke.
Just now, Ma Fei had taken out a long sword and clashed with him, but it had been directly chopped into a broken blade.
The commotion here also attracted the attention of Kai’Er and the others.
Qiao Yu’s mind moved, and he instantly rushed out, stepping on the ground.
“Everyone, I, Tian E, am sorry for the beast tide earlier. Now, please give me a chance to redeem myself!”
A sinister smile appeared on Qiao Yu’s face.
“These two Easterners, I, Tian E, will take them down! Prepare to die, you two Easterners!”
With a clang, a long sword covered with curved patterns appeared in Qiao Yu’s hand.
Ma Fei’s hair instantly stood on end! As a sword cultivator who had touched the threshold of sword intent, he immediately sensed the terrifying nature of this long sword!
“Zi Yue... we might not be able to leave!”
Cold sweat dripped down Ma Fei’s forehead. In his memory, the only sword that was stronger than the one in front of him was Principal Ji’s Kunwu Sword.
Even the Sword King’s sword was not as good.
That sword was like a sleeping king, and once it awakened, it would definitely shake the world.
And the person who could use this sword was definitely a first-rate expert, someone he couldn’t deal with at all.
Originally, Ma Fei thought that after cultivating with the Sword King for so long, he would definitely make a name for himself as soon as he came out of the mountain, but he didn’t expect to crash and burn even in a special dungeon.
Every time Ma Fei thought he was capable, reality would slap him in the face to wake him up.
“It’s okay, I don’t care.”
Zhao Ziyue smiled at Ma Fei, tightly interlocking her fingers with his.
“Zi Yue...”
Ma Fei’s heart fluttered, and then his eyes began to become firm.
During the time that Ma Benwei had died, if Zhao Ziyue hadn’t been with him all along, he probably would have collapsed from the blow.
Now, even for Zhao Ziyue’s sake, he, Ma Fei, must not give up easily.
“Don’t worry, Zi Yue, before I die, I guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you!” A fighting spirit ignited in Ma Fei’s eyes.
“You better not die. If you die, I’ll go to your grave and twerk with another man.”
As soon as Zhao Ziyue finished speaking, Ma Fei was stunned for a moment, and then the fighting spirit in his eyes became even stronger.
Zhao Ziyue’s words were undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Ma Fei, strengthening his belief in leaving this place alive.
Qiao Yu looked at this scene, and the smile on his face became even more cruel.
“Heh heh heh, what an enviable love. Since that’s the case, I’ll let you die together!”
“Damn Easterners, eat my Immortal Execution Netherworld Ghost Slash!”
Qiao Yu raised the Worry-Free Sword, then suddenly threw it towards Ma Fei.
The Worry-Free Sword spun in the air, turning the hilt towards Ma Fei. Then, in Ma Fei’s bewildered gaze, the hilt just happened to be grasped in his hand.
Ma Fei was stunned. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that the other party had deliberately given him the sword.
Then, Ma Fei heard a cry full of disbelief.
“What?! How is this possible! How could you break my Immortal Execution Netherworld Ghost Slash and steal my Worry-Free Sword? Are you cheating?”
