"Aren’t you going to escape?" Li Boyang scrutinized Li Xiu with keen interest.
"Why should I escape?" Li Xiu retorted without hesitation.
"You chose to ascend to unparalleled here, isn’t it to lead into the Ti Tunnel? I suppose Jinghao has already told you that only in that Ti Tunnel can you kill . At this point, why cover it up? If you want to enter the Ti Tunnel, I’ll accompany you," Li Boyang said confidently.
"It’s unnecessary," Li Xiu replied blandly.
"Are you doubting Jinghao?" Li Boyang smiled and said, "Then you’ve misunderstood him. He might deceive anyone, but he would never deceive you. Soone like him typically doesn’t have friends, yet he regards you as one. It’s puzzling; many would trade everything for his trust, but he remains unmoved. It’s those like you who don’t value him that he deems as friends. Quite unusual, isn’t it?"
"Indeed, I don’t regard Guan Jinghao as a friend, not because I look down on him, but because our personalities clash. This doesn’t an I doubt his character; I’ve never questioned him," Li Xiu responded.
"Since you trust him, why not enter the Ti Tunnel?" Li Boyang considered briefly, then realized, "It seems you have a deep-seated prejudice against , believing I’ve been manipulating Jinghao from the start, using him to manipulate you, right?"
Li Xiu shook his head again, "You’re overthinking. I have no need to enter the Ti Tunnel."
"That’s quite interesting. Without entering the Ti Tunnel, how do you plan to kill ?" Li Boyang found it increasingly amusing.
Li Xiu didn’t answer, simply raised his arm, his fingers mimicking a gun, targeting Li Boyang’s forehead.
"Your Light Planting Technique is indeed wondrous, refining such profound Light Energy with your body as the seed. Even I can’t discern the nature of your Light Energy. Fine, before you turn into my key, let your existence leave one final radiance in this world," Li Boyang stood with hands behind his back, showing no intention to defend or attack.
Bang!
Li Xiu’s finger trembled, and a strange force descended directly before Li Boyang as if there had never been an interdiary process.
Jiang Lanling’s emotions were complex, her eyes glued to Li Boyang, eager to see whether Li Xiu’s attack could hurt him.
Despite Li Boyang’s almost invincible body, the power Li Xiu displayed was equally extraordinary.
Previously, he had already revealed two unparalleled forces, which were not his true strength. Jiang Lanling could not be sure if Li Xiu’s true power could kill Li Boyang, leaving her heart uneasy.
It was initially thought that Li Xiu’s power would be stronger than before, yet this ti, his power couldn’t even touch Li Boyang’s body.
An invisible bullet was blocked by a surge of purple energy. The bullet ford a vacuum shape within the purple aura, advancing slowly. When it was two inches from Li Boyang’s forehead, it could move no further.
Looking at the bullet halted before him, Li Boyang said with so disappointnt, "I thought your power would be of what degree. It turns out to be just so, sowhat disappointing."
Speaking, Li Boyang reached out, plucked the bullet wrapped in purple like picking fruit, and played with it at will.
"Haven’t used any power outside my physique for years in this world. Let’s play a bit," with that, Li Boyang flicked his wrist, and the bullet in his hand vanished instantly.
Jiang Lanling’s shock was beyond words. As powerful as Li Xiu was, he seed to have no way against Li Boyang, whose true power was even more formidable than she had anticipated, possibly an invincible existence in the world.
Bang!
With a sudden explosion, Jiang Lanling’s eyes widened.
The bullet Li Boyang flicked did not, as she had expected, appear in Li Xiu’s body; instead, Li Boyang’s own forehead bore a bullet hole.
"How could this happen?" Jiang Lanling was bewildered, unable to understand why, when Li Boyang clearly held the upper hand, the bullet ended up wounding him instead of flying toward Li Xiu.
Looking at the bullet in Li Boyang’s forehead, Li Xiu said calmly, "You used the Spirit Suppressing Stone and my Purgatory Force to rid yourself of the world’s rejection. But as you said, you were originally an elent disrupting the world’s balance. Now, you’ve rged with the Spirit Suppressing Stone and the Purgatory Force, aligning yourself within the cosmic yin and yang. This ans you’ve turned from an outsider to an insider. My power was ineffective against you before because you were outside the rules. Now that you’re within, you have no special privileges."
Li Boyang wiped the bullet wound from his forehead, a glance of unfathomable emotion in his eyes, a hint of a smile began to erge at the corner of his mouth, "So you knew all along, deliberately gave the Purgatory Force, to bring into the rules. Excellent, truly excellent, no wonder you were my chosen one. When did you find out?"
"Not too long ago, once I learned you laid so many traps on , I no longer held any false hopes. You sent to the Gate of Purgatory, certainly with an ulterior motive," Li Xiu said.
Li Boyang’s smile widened, "Being rejected by the world, I couldn’t acquire the Purgatory Force, even if I went to the Gate of Purgatory myself, so I had to find soone to help. Yet that place is not survivable by re humans; fortunately, you appeared."
