Fu Lingxue, the Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace, a genuine late-stage Floating Life Realm expert, is ranked among the top figures in the entire Tenglong Continent, with a respectable position on the Heavenly List as well.
Such a person, within so dium and small forces, would be an absolute sovereign, and even the masters of those first-class forces might not be significantly stronger than her.
After all, the Xiao Family Patriarch Xiao Zhenting, who died at Hu Ying'er's hand, was rely in the late-stage Floating Life Realm, indicating that a powerhouse like Fu Lingxue could almost stand on equal footing with the masters of top forces.
But today, Fu Lingxue felt an extre sense of grievance, because she was capsized in the ditch facing a young man who was originally only at the half-step Heavenly Rank but had raised his cultivation to the middle-stage Floating Life Realm through countless thods.
In fact, Fu Lingxue did not underestimate Yun Xiao, especially after he killed Lu Tianrun; she beca deeply wary.
Unfortunately, Fu Lingxue miscalculated; she did not account for Yun Xiao having refined a chaos sub-fire of the King of Ten Thousand Flas, which had an extrely suppressive effect on her fire attribute ridian Techniques, seemingly ghostly or illusory.
Thus, when that blazing sun was just broken, Fu Lingxue was montarily stunned, precisely at that instant of stupefaction, Yun Xiao seized the opportunity, nearly delivering a fatal strike.
Ultimately, Fu Lingxue relied on so life-saving asures to evade Yun Xiao's Ancestral Vein Fire's deadly killer move, but so things were inevitably neglected.
When Fu Lingxue avoided the blood-red fiery silk, feeling a hot pain on the left side of her cheek, her expression changed dramatically, with a hint of horror.
"No!"
Especially when Fu Lingxue instinctively touched her left cheek and saw her hand covered in fresh blood, she couldn't help but scream, her voice filled with a touch of fear.
Don't be fooled by Fu Lingxue being two or three hundred years old; she maintained herself extrely well, looking like a woman in her thirties or forties, exuding a mature charm.
Such a woman cherishes her appearance most dearly; Fu Lingxue did her utmost to protect her face but didn't expect a mistake to ruin half of her face.
The Yun Xiao's Ancestral Vein Fire enhanced by the chaos sub-fire was formidable; although its body did not touch Fu Lingxue's cheek, the spreading heat still scorched her entire left cheek into a bloody ss.
In so places, even after the flesh was charred, exposed cheekbones were visible, bloody and terrifying, presenting a true visage of half beauty, half skull.
On Tenglong Continent, although there are so special Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to help maintain appearances and restore features, such things are hard to co by.
Even an entity like Wuyan Palace would find it challenging to obtain such rare items, especially given Fu Lingxue's severe injuries; even Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures might not restore her forr appearance.
Minor scars might be easily removed, but Fu Lingxue's left cheek was burned deep to the bone, and given her age, even if she could eventually recover, it might only restore the skin of her several centuries-old self.
"Yun Xiao, I, Fu Lingxue, swear not to coexist peacefully with you!"
The Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace valued her appearance far more than her life. Had she died earlier, it would have been fine; now this half-human, half-ghost appearance would probably scare others.
"Damn it!"
Fu Lingxue's venomous roar echoed into the heavens, clearly heard by everyone at the lakeside, including Wuyan Palace Master Wu Zhukong, who was battling Xue Tianao.
Speaking of which, it's imperative to ntion that the relationship between Wuyan Palace's Master and Vice Palace Master was rather peculiar, with so clandestine dealings unknown to outsiders.
Thus, Wu Zhukong's regard for Fu Lingxue was not solely because she was the Vice Palace Master but also due to a lover's unique affection.
Fu Lingxue had a good figure, beautiful appearance, and strong abilities, making her cherished by Wu Zhukong, yet Yun Xiao's actions had left her grotesque, causing him untold anger.
Wu Zhukong could even imagine finding it nauseating to face Fu Lingxue's distorted appearance, wondering if he might feel like vomiting?
Already harboring imnse hatred for Yun Xiao, Wu Zhukong was never as inclined to shred that boy to pieces as he was now, deepening the enmity between them into an unbridgeable abyss due to Fu Lingxue's plight.
In contrast to Wu Zhukong, many spectators who were initially more concerned for Yun Xiao were both stunned and delighted, surprised by the sudden turnaround.
When Yun Xiao had killed Lu Tianrun, strong figures like Qingmu, Wuzhong, and Lian Yuluo, as well as Liu Hanyi and Mo Qing, could discern so of Yun Xiao's tricks.
Such cleverness reveals itself before others once and cannot be repeated; Fu Lingxue was, after all, the Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace, and it seed impossible for Yun Xiao to surprise and kill her again.
Moreover, the Ancestor Vein Power or Secret Technique cannot be sustained for long after enhancent, and Yun Xiao was already at the end of his rope earlier, so the odds of winning are less than ten percent.
Yet it was this re ten percent chance that enabled Yun Xiao to, in just one move, reduce the Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace, who was originally composed and dignified, to such a sorry state.
Seeing that half-bloodied ghost face of Fu Lingxue, neither Qingmu Wu nor San Yuan, or Ling Wan, flinched, but the other won, including Xuanyin Hall Vice Hall Master Lian Yuluo, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Every woman cherishes her appearance extrely, and these won are naturally no exception.
They all believe that even if Fu Lingxue survives this ti, her later life will be spent in endless suffering after losing half of her cheek.
"That guy is really ruthless!"
Mo Qing comnted with a sigh, and instinctively raised her hand to touch her own cheek, shivering slightly, and at that mont, she even felt a trace of pity as a fellow woman.
"Hmph, to deal with such a vicious woman, one must be even more ruthless. Let's see how Fu Lingxue can act arrogantly in the future?"
On the contrary, Xuanyin Hall's young mistress Xue Ningxiang let out a cold snort, with a touch of excitent in her tone, after all, Xuanyin Hall and Wuyan Palace had been long-standing enemies.
Xue Ningxiang has reason to believe that Fu Lingxue suffered such a great humiliation, which will severely impact her future Cultivation Dao Heart.
Not to ntion whether she can break through to the Lingyun Realm level later, even wanting to break through to the Floating Life Realm Peak will probably require more effort than before.
If Fu Lingxue cannot adjust her state well, her cultivation regressing is not impossible, as this continent indeed has many people who, after being struck down, beco dispirited and die depressed in the end.
"Unforgivable? Then let's see if you even have that opportunity!"
Compared to the thoughts of the spectators, Yun Xiao did not care in the slightest, listening to Fu Lingxue's roar filled with extre resentnt, he just responded coldly.
At this mont, although Fu Lingxue desperately wanted to tear the young man before her to pieces, she fortunately retained the last shred of sanity, as the bizarre defeat earlier had terrified her.
Fu Lingxue did not know if she could survive if it happened again. This young man's thods are truly strange—so strange that she is sowhat clueless how to respond.
Strictly speaking, when the Ancestral Vein Fire ca her way earlier, had Fu Lingxue not reacted quickly, it would not just have been half her face burned. She might have turned into a pile of ashes.
A re encounter instantly shattered Fu Lingxue's confidence within her heart. At this mont, no matter how resentful she is, she's sowhat reluctant to duel Yun Xiao alone.
Yet Yun Xiao knows his own condition well. Sensing the strength of the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu within his body, and with the power of the eight Ancestor Veins being on the brink of depletion, he had no hesitation left.
Because Yun Xiao knows if he doesn't strike forcefully now and completely kill this Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace, he might not need her to act. Soon, he himself might faint from power exhaustion.
In the previous situation, when desperately channeling power, Yun Xiao elevated his ridian Qi Cultivation to the Floating Life Realm Middle-stage; he has reason to believe that once this power dissipates, he will end up in quite the predicant.
This could greatly affect his Cultivation Foundation; but at this critical juncture, with his life on the line, what choice does Yun Xiao have? If he doesn't fight with all his might, he will be slain by the opponent.
At this mont, Fu Lingxue, due to her cheek being destroyed and suffering psychological shadows from his tactics, truly presented an excellent chance to seize, so Yun Xiao did not hesitate much, directly lunging forward.
In contrast to the disparity in ridian Qi, perhaps Yun Xiao's physical strength isn't weaker than this Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace who reached the Floating Life Realm Late-stage.
"Palace Master, save !"
Fu Lingxue was indeed scared out of her wits. Even though her facial wound, strictly speaking, is just flesh wound, upon seeing that youth rushing towards her, she couldn't help but cry out.
A distinguished Floating Life Realm Late-stage expert, a Vice Palace Master under one yet above myriad others in Wuyan Palace, actually calls for help when attacked by a re youth.
Many spectating cultivators hearing this cry for help were bewildered, as it was completely different from what they had expected earlier.
And just after Fu Lingxue's cry for help, a change finally occurred on a battlefield at a certain spot by the Big Lake. This change might have a crucial impact on the entire battle situation.
