“Understood.”


  Gu Bailu held Feng Qingtian’s hand. “It’s been so long since I’ve played for real. I’ve really missed it.”


  Feng Qingtian rubbed her head. “Have fun.”


  “Fight until the opponent admits defeat, or to the end?” Xiao Jingyun looked at Feng Qingtian.

  Feng Qingtian replied domineeringly, “Whatever.”


  “Then we’ll stop there. We’re just competing for fun.” Xiao Jingyun smiled.

  “Sure.”


  With that decided, both parties quickly moved to a wide and empty place. The cold wind blew, and the night was a little cold.

  Gu Bailu tied the belt on her fox fur coat. “Please guide me.”


  She swiped her hand across her chest, creating a barrier that rippled like water.

  She didn’t even give the other party a chance to discuss strategy.

  Feng Qingtian summoned the Soul Separating Sword. Ye Ying, Ye Qi, and Ye Ba released their spiritual power.

  The other side wasn’t to be outdone either. Just Shao Zun and the emperor releasing their spiritual power caused the entire scene to turn colorful, strange, and oppressive.

  The face of Bu Yaolian, who had low spiritual power, turned pale from the shock of the spiritual power. She could no longer hear anything, as if something was blocking her ears.

  Many of the ministers didn’t feel good either.

  But they endured the pain; no one would give up on watching such a high-level competition.

  The ground trembled and the buildings shook.

  Feng Qingtian and the others blocked Shao Zun and Xiao Jingyun’s spiritual power as it struck down. When the two forces clashed in the air, it was as if two planets were colliding. The deafening sound sent the tables and chairs in the banquet hall flying.

  Dishes were scattered all over the place.

  Bu Yaolian had already expected this outcome and hid by a flower bed, but her face was still covered in dust.

  Xiao Jing and Shao Zun looked at each other and said in unison, “Take down Princess Zi.”


  Gu Bailu summoned Yin Neng and boosted each person with a support rune before she took out a stack of teleportation runes.

  She knew that she looked like the weak link and the other side would be gunning for her.

  Firstly, Feng Qingtian would be distracted if anything happened to her. Secondly, she had the least spiritual power, and would be cut down on the spot.

  As expected, they all attacked her.

  Gu Bailu stood behind Feng Qingtian so that he could block them a little, but it was five people attacking from all directions.

  Plus, the five on the opposite side were all powerful experts.

  Feng Qingtian and the three guards were tangled up with one person.

  Xiao Jingyun came to deal with her.

  Gu Bailu teleported several meters away and said, “Yin Neng, stop him first.”


  She couldn’t just hide. As a god-level support, she had to help the others.

  Yin Neng firmly held Xiao Jingyun back.

  Gu Bailu ran around the field and threw out a teleportation rune every once in a while. After she was done, she jumped into one and teleported to Feng Qingtian’s side.

  Su Shenfan was fighting Feng Qingtian.

  Gu Bailu caused a ten-word rune to explode in Su Shenfan’s direction. “Damn……”


  Su Shenfan felt the transparent cross hit him and he felt dizzy.

  “My Lord, take him down, quickly!”


  Gu Bailu charged toward Su Shenfan and slapped another immobilization rune on his back.

  Seeing that something was wrong, the consort hurried to help. Gu Bailu was going to run to her, but Xiao Jingyun slashed at her. She dodged quickly, but the empress almost slashed her face with a blade.
