Chapter 100: The Death of Chen Xiaoyang
Not to mention that Yan Wuji and Chen Xiaoyang were shocked, even Yan Ran who was watching the battle below was shocked.
She knew more about Mo Xiu and knew more about the power of Mo Xiu, so she knew that Mo Xiu was going to Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds to fight Yan Wuji decisively, even if she knew this was a den full of tigers, she was still willing to join Mo Xiu.
But now, she realized that the Mo Xiu she knew was far less powerful than the real Mo Xiu.
The thirty-foot-high golem was so daunting. The surging True Energy released a wave of air, so that the whole golem seemed to be isolated from the surroundings. The formidable aura made people want to worship subconsciously.
She even couldn't help but doubt that this golem was really Mo Xiu?
If it really was, then Mo Xiu's strength was too terrifying, she was afraid that moving mountains and seas would not be a problem.
The golem was naturally not Mo Xiu, it was just a magic image that Mo Xiu used with his magical powers. It looked very powerful and gave people a feeling of incomparable horror. However, it was not as powerful as Yan Ran imagined. It was just an illusion.
After all, Mo Xiu's current cultivation base only in the Core Formation Realm, and it was barely possible to cultivate this kind of magical powers, how could he use the method of shifting mountains and draining seas?
Although he couldn't move mountains and seas, his current strength was more than enough to deal with Yan Wuji and Chen Xiaoyang.
With a thought from him, the two huge magic pupils on the golem looked at Yan Wuji and Chen Xiaoyang.
Just a single glance made Yan Wuji and Chen Xiaoyang feel like falling into the darkest abyss, and an icy breath fell on them as if the door of hell had been opened to them.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help swallowing.
Soon, Yan Wuji said, "Senior brother Chen, you and I have no retreat until now, even if he is a god in heaven, he must be killed!"
"Yeah," Chen Xiaoyang nodded solemnly.
Yan Wuji: "With us two, there must be a way to deal with him."
"Good," Chen Xiaoyang agreed happily.
Yan Wuji stopped talking, patted the Cloud Repelling Lion, and rushed towards the golem with the Cloud Repelling Lion.
Chen Xiaoyang also retracted his gaze. With a wave of the sword in his hand, the light of the sword flashed, and a sword aura struck the golem not far away.
However, his whole person took two or three steps back, and then he flashed away, flying in the direction of Yan Ran below.
He agreed to go together and deal with the golem together, but he was not that stupid.
The golem made people tremble just by looking at it. He didn't think that he and Yan Wuji could deal with it by himself, rushing to deal with it was no different from rushing to the very 'death' itself.
Of course, Yan Wuji said that he wanted to deal with that golem. That was a great thing for him. Let Yan Wuji contend with the golem, and he could escape alone. Therefore, he didn't think about accepting Yan Wuji's proposal at all.
As for what Yan Wuji would end up with, he couldn't control that much.
The Seraphic Sword Sect was indeed Yan Wuji's backer, and he himself was very optimistic about Yan Wuji, but compared with his own life, Yan Wuji was not worth mentioning.
As long as he could save his life, did he need to care about sacrificing one Yan Wuji?
His real goal was Yan Ran. After all, the barrier around the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds had been controlled by Mo Xiu. Even if he was a Profound Spirit Realm cultivator, he could not break the barrier and rush out in a short time.
If he wanted to leave alive, he could only hold Yan Ran, so that Mo Xiu dared not act rashly.
In the sky, Chen Xiaoyang's sword energy that was released by Chen Xiaoyang previously smashed the golem, but it was unable to make any waves, nor could it leave any scratches on the golem.
Soon, the golem moved as the huge arm abruptly grabbed Chen Xiaoyang, who was moving fast below.
"Boom…"
A roar of explosion sounded in Chen Xiaoyang's ears.
Chen Xiaoyang was still seven or eight feet away from where Yan Ran was. But before he could say a word, he felt a darkness hit. When he looked back, it turned out that the huge palm of the golem was covering the sky and the sun as it suddenly grabbed him.
"How come!"
Chen Xiaoyang was so frightened that he had no intention of catching Yan Ran anymore, and promptly turned over and pierced the huge palm with his sword.
"Psst…"
After a strange sound, the sword in Chen Xiaoyang's hand successfully pierced the palm of that palm.
However, the tall golem didn't seem to be affected at all, there was no pain, no roar, the huge palm still grasped Chen Xiaoyang, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Xiaoyang was firmly grasped in its hand.
"It's over!"
Chen Xiaoyang who fell into the hands of the golem timely felt a little bad.
His first reaction was not to mobilize his True Energy to break free from the palm of the golem, but to look around and look for Yan Wuji's figure.
According to his plan, even if Yan Wuji was not the opponent of the golem, he could at least slow down the golem for a while.
If Yan Wuji could slow the golem down for a while, he would be able to capture Yan Ran under his hand, thus gaining a chance of life.
But he was not able to catch Yan Ran just now, and the golem had already grabbed him at lightning speed, indicating that Yan Wuji hadn't been able to delay Mo Xiu for even a short while.
What was happening? Could it be that Yan Wuji was solved in the blink of an eye?
While feeling suspicious, a figure came into his eyes, it was Yan Wuji.
However, Yan Wuji did not die.
Not only was he not dead, but he was far away from the golem, driving the Cloud Repelling Lion, and fleeing towards the forest in the hunting grounds.
Yan Wuji escaped?
Clearly, Yan Wuji was the one who kept saying that he wanted to deal with the golem, Chen Xiaoyang even saw Yan Wuji rush towards the golem, how come Yan Wuji ran away in the blink of an eye instead?
With a turn of his mind, Chen Xiaoyang reacted immediately. Chen Xiaoyang, never thought about dealing with the golem, and Yan Wuji never thought about dealing with the golem. Before, that fellow drove the Cloud Repelling Lion towards the golem was just a bluff to allow him to rush up to die.
He had never thought that Yan Wuji would run away, and perhaps Yan Wuji had never thought that he would run away either.
However, Yan Wuji fled into the forest, and Chen Xiaoyang chose to hold Yan Ran in order to be able to escape, so that Mo Xiu temporarily gave up the goal of catching Yan Wuji, and immediately caught him.
"Bastard stuff!"
Chen Xiaoyang gritted his teeth, furious, and almost spewed blood on the spot.
Soon, he looked at the giant golem that was thirty feet high in front of him and shouted, "Mo Xiu, I, Chen Xiaoyang, didn't really offend you. Even if you count it, it's you who killed my juniors, the hatred should be on my side instead."
After a pause, he continued, "Your strength is very strong, and I am far from being able to be your opponent. I was planted in your hands today, so I am convinced that I'm stupid and weak. If you want to kill me, I don't have any opinion, but don't you think reprisal will only breed reprisal? You can kill me, Chen Xiaoyang, but can you destroy our Seraphic Sword Sect? Why don't you let me go? After that, the grievances between us will be wiped out. What do you think?"
"..."
Mo Xiu was silent and did not respond.
Chen Xiaoyang was anxious and quickly said, "If you want to kill Yan Wuji, I won't stop you anymore. I can even help you support Yan Ran to the throne and make her the only empress in the history of the Yan Kingdom. I can also recommend you to join our Seraphic Sword Sect and become the core disciple of our Seraphic Sword Sect. Please consider it carefully."
After waiting for a while, Mo Xiu actually said, "You make sense."
Chen Xiaoyang was overjoyed, but before he was happy for long, he heard Mo Xiu continue to say, "You really didn't offend me, but since you are looking for death on me, how can I forgive you?"
As soon as his voice fell, the huge palm that was holding Chen Xiaoyang slammed hard, and a 'pop' sound could be heard, like a balloon bursting, before Chen Xiaoyang even screamed, his upper body was reduced to a pile of meat paste.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoyang couldn't die any more than this, Mo Xiu gave a thought, and the golem spread out its huge palm, and Chen Xiaoyang's half body fell from mid-air and hit the ground.
Then the golem's palm flipped, and Chen Xiaoyang's sword that pierced into its palm was also bounced out, slid down in midair, and slanted into the ground.
After dealing with Chen Xiaoyang, Mo Xiu glanced at Yan Ran on the high platform below and said, "You stay here, don't walk around randomly, I will kill Yan Wuji."
With that, he controlled the huge golem to fly towards the forest.
At this moment, Yan Wuji had already escaped into the forest, hiding himself and the Cloud Repelling Lion perfectly.
Although he could not hear what Chen Xiaoyang said before his death, he had already seen the scene where Chen Xiaoyang was grasped by the palm of the golem before he escaped into the forest, so he could roughly guess Chen Xiaoyang's fate.
After confirming that he had hidden well, he breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced in his heart, "That was dangerous. I didn't expect that that dog Chen Xiaoyang to have the same idea as me. Fortunately, he hit on Yan Ran and successfully managed to Mo Wu get Mo Xiu's attention and was drawn away, otherwise, I may not be able to escape."
Escape was only temporary, even if he could hide in the forest for a short time, it was impossible to hide for a lifetime.
And he was very sure that after solving Chen Xiaoyang, Mo Xiu would find him immediately, so he had to figure out a countermeasure before that.
First of all, there were many traps in this forest. People who were not familiar with the environment in the forest could easily fall into the traps and unfortunately die.
Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds was Yan Wuji's territory, and the reason why Yan Wuji chose to fight Mo Xiu here was that he was very familiar with the environment here, so the traps here could be fully utilized.
However, he felt that even if he made good use of the traps, he could only further protect himself. It was not that easy to deal with Mo Xiu.
In addition to traps, there were many monsters in the forest, even powerful monsters that could make the Profound Spirit Realm experts feel uneasy. Perhaps only with the power of those monsters could they deal with Mo Xiu.
He was thinking desperately, but before he could produce another sigh, he heard a whirring sound, and it was the thirty feet high golem that actually flew over.
"Not good!"
Yan Wuji couldn't care whether the plan was perfect or not. He got off the back of the Cloud Repelling Lion and exchanged thoughts with the Cloud Repelling Lion, and immediately flew towards the depths of the forest.
