Before Ling Que could reply, Zhanlong Daynight threw a punch at Ling Que. "What nonsense are you spouting? The Daynight clan doesn't need to wag their tails and beg for mercy."
Zhanlong Daynight's fist transformed into a gust of wind that could be seen with the naked eye as it smashed into the ground, but Ling Que easily dodged it. He then raised his hand, causing his Que's Mighty Slash to pierce through the void and disappear. Zhanlong Daynight's expression changed as he clashed with Ling Que's fists. In that instant, the void distorted as layers of shockwaves spread out in all directions with Zhanlong Daynight at the center. His Que's Mighty Slash pierced through the void and headed straight for Zhanlong Daynight, but it was obstructed by the shockwaves midway, causing its might to greatly decrease. Even though it was still able to draw a line of blood, it was unable to deal much damage to Zhanlong Daynight.
This was the method Zhanlong Daynight had come up with to deal with Que's Mighty Slash.
Liu Shaoqiu used the second sword to form a defense, switching between offense and defense. He could do the same. When he punched himself, the force generated was enough to form a defensive shockwave.
Ling Que was surprised. "Interesting."
Nightqueen Yanqing was cursing Zhanlong Daynight's stupidity, but she did not hesitate in the face of battle. Her purple eyes flickered as she suddenly shouted, "Brother Ling!"
Ling Que reflexively looked at her and met her purple eyes.
In an instant, the soles of Ling Que's feet turned into stone, and the stone quickly spread out. This was Nightqueen Yanqing's innate gift: Purple Eyes, which could turn everything into stone.
Ling Que's eyebrows twitched as his body suddenly trembled. Following that, a second Ling Que appeared. This was a Spirit Clone, and the petrified Ling Que gradually disappeared.
"Miss Yanqing, you've gone too far." Ling Que's tone turned cold. He had been ambushed.
Nightqueen Yanqing felt bitter as her Nightking's Body and battle force erupted. "I'm sorry, Brother Ling. I didn't want to, so please don't blame me."
With a whoosh, Zhanlong Daynight swept past Nightqueen Yanqing and punched out at Ling Que. Ling Que's Que's Mighty Slash flickered as he slashed out horizontally. Thunder accompanied the explosion of sound waves as it tore open a giant spatial tear in the void. It was as if a black slash had traveled across the entire Pyrolyte Lake.
Zhanlong Daynight twisted his body and dodged the attack. He then lashed out with a kick at Ling Que. At the same time, Nightqueen Yanqing attacked from another direction.
Ling Que's Que's Mighty Slash spun rapidly around his body, allowing Zhanlong Daynight and Nightqueen Yanqing to attack him.
The ground was instantly shattered, and the three of them were smashed into the ground at the same time. Terrifying waves of air surged upwards, sweeping the ground high into the sky.
Zhanlong Daynight and Nightqueen Yanqing immediately leaped out of the ground. The next moment, all of the surrounding Daynight clan members simultaneously attacked the ground. The Daynight clan wanted to use their combined strength to defeat Ling Que.
In outer space, Nightqueen Qiuyu stared at the screen. Would this be useful?
Wen Qichen frowned. Ling Que had been too careless.
The Daynight clan was no weakling, and every Daynight clan member had mastered a battle technique that had a certain degree of effectiveness against spiritual force attacks. So many Daynight clan members had attacked at the same time, but they did not expect to cause any harm to Ling Que's body. Their goal was to attack his spiritual force.
This was also the reason why the Daynight clan had not been able to cause too much damage to Pyrolyte Lake even though they had attacked together. Although their attacks did not seem to be very destructive, they were actually very damaging to one's spiritual force.
After the first round of attacks, many of the Daynight clan members were panting heavily. Zhanlong Daynight clenched his fists tightly, as this was the first time he had ever bullied someone with so many people. It made him sullen, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could not defeat Ling Que in a one-on-one battle.
Nightqueen Yanqing looked on expectantly, hoping that Ling Que would not be able to hold on.
However, reality disappointed them. Ling Que slowly walked out of the ground, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy. Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. The Daynight clan's first round of attacks had not been completely ineffective. He had felt a little dizzy, and this had further enraged him.
Ling Que raised his head and swept his cold gaze across the Daynight clan members. "Do you all want to die?"
Nightqueen Yanqing's heart skipped a beat. "Everyone, retreat!"
Zhanlong Daynight growled and punched Ling Que. Ling Que's body trembled, and he leaped up with his Que's Mighty Slash. A crack extended through the void and eventually tore through the sky. Zhanlong Daynight fell to the ground with a loud thud as he bled profusely.
Ling Que looked around, and his Que's Mighty Slash disappeared. The next moment, more than ten Daynight clan members had their necks ripped apart, and they were instantly killed. Nightqueen Yanqing's eyes narrowed, and she hurriedly tried to escape. Ling Que's eyes narrowed, and his Que's Mighty Slash appeared and then disappeared as he stabbed it towards Nightqueen Yanqing.
Nightqueen Yanqing felt her scalp go numb. "Brother Ling, please have mercy."
Ling Que's gaze was cold and arrogant. Even though he was a little narcissistic and lecherous, he was still Ling Que, one of the four unequaled Limiteers. He was also a super genius of the Lingling clan, and he would not tolerate any humiliation. He was infatuated with Nightqueen Yanqing's respect and worship for him, but the battle just now had crossed his bottom line.
She had to die! Powerhouses all had their own bottom lines, and those who crossed them were nothing more than wild beasts.
Nightqueen Yanqing truly felt the threat of death looming over her. She would fall under his Que's Mighty Slash in three seconds at most. One second, two seconds … On the third second, she suddenly made a move and grabbed Zhuo Daynight, using her as a shield. Zhuo Daynight had participated in the previous attack, and the moment Ling Que revealed his killing intent, she knew that she would die without a doubt.
Zhuo Daynight's face turned ashen when she was grabbed by Nightqueen Yanqing. It was time to end this.
Que's Mighty Slash appeared in the void and pierced towards Zhuo Daynight's forehead. Ling Que showed no mercy, and his gaze was icy cold. Nightqueen Yanqing hid behind Zhuo Daynight, her face deathly pale. Zhuo Daynight's death would only buy her one second at most, and during that one second, she did not know how to block the Que's Mighty Slash. Ling Que was too terrifying.
Above the planet, Nightqueen Qiuyu could not help but make a move. Nightqueen Yanqing could not die.
But at that moment, just as Zhuo Daynight felt that her forehead was about to be pierced, two fingers suddenly appeared in front of her and clamped down on the mysterious Que's Mighty Slash. The void trembled, and everyone felt as if their hearts had stopped beating. Even the air became silent.
Everyone stared blankly at the man who had suddenly appeared in front of Zhuo Daynight. This person had used two fingers to clamp down on the Que's Mighty Slash.
Ling Que's mind trembled as he stared at the scene before him in shock. How was this possible?
Even Mu Rong could not do such a thing.
Nightqueen Yanqing stared in disbelief at the man who was just inches away from her. He was a stranger, but this person had saved her life.
Beep!
Drip!
Fresh blood dripped onto the ground. Even though the Que's Mighty Slash had been clamped down, it had still pierced through Zhuo Daynight's forehead. She had completely fainted, or rather, she was on the verge of death.
The person who had appeared in front of Zhuo Daynight was naturally Lu Yin. He had seen this scene as soon as he had arrived at Pyrolyte Lake. He had immediately shifted the Fatesand around his heart and left arm, unsealing most of his physical strength. Only then had he been able to clamp down on the Que's Mighty Slash with two fingers. However, he had still been a step too late, and the Que's Mighty Slash had still pierced through Zhuo Daynight's forehead.
In the distance, Hai Qiqi covered her mouth, as she could not bear to watch this scene unfold.
The blade had pierced through the forehead, and her forehead had split open. This was a fatal wound, and even Shamrock Enterprises' best medicines could not treat it. Humans could reconnect most parts of the body, but there was nothing they could do about an injury like this. This was because the moment the blade had pierced through her forehead, Zhuo Daynight's life had been cut off.
Pyrolyte Lake was completely silent. Lu Yin's arm trembled, and his eyes flickered as he stared at Zhuo Daynight. Zhuo Daynight's gaze was dim. She had finally seen Lu Yin, but he was a stranger. Lu Yin had disguised himself, but she was not unwilling. Perhaps death was a form of release for her.
The Que's Mighty Slash that had pierced through Zhuo Daynight's forehead had disappeared as Ling Que had retrieved it. Lu Yin hugged Zhuo Daynight as a shockwave spread out from his body, forcing Nightqueen Yanqing to retreat. He then rushed out of Pyrolyte Lake. He had suddenly thought of something: that white fruit. He had spent over a hundred star essence to upgrade it to the point where it could help him avoid danger.
The Trialmaster had said that the older this fruit was, the stronger its effects would be. Some fruits could even bring one back to life and be filled with life energy. Lu Yin did not believe that it could bring the dead back to life, but he had no choice but to use it on Zhuo Daynight.
Everyone else was stunned. Only Ling Que stared at Lu Yin and suddenly rushed over. "Stop right there! Who are you?"
In the entire universe, Ling Que could not think of any Limiteer who could clamp down on his Que's Mighty Slash with two fingers. Mu Rong could not do it, and Lu Yin should not be able to do it either. So who was this person?
This person was the universe's strongest Limiteer, and Ling Que had to figure out his identity.
It wasn't just Ling Que; everyone wanted to know this person's identity, including the experts from the various great powers. Wen Qichen, Nightqueen Qiuyu, Viletree, and the others were all staring at the scene. When had such a powerful Limiteer appeared? How could they not know about it?
Only Northline Flowzone's Granny Chan, Lily Anne, and a few others were aware of this, but they had not expected Lu Yin to be able to clamp down on his Que's Mighty Slash. This completely overturned their understanding of the strength of a Limiteer. Even Granny Chan, an Enlighter, could not understand how Lu Yin could possess such strength despite only being a Limiteer.
Ling Que quickly chased after Lu Yin and raised his head. His Que's Mighty Slash shot out and pierced through the void towards Lu Yin.
Lu Yin frowned, as he did not want to reveal his identity. He had Hai Qiqi leave on her own while he turned around and faced the Que's Mighty Slash. The moment the blade appeared, Lu Yin tilted his body, grabbed Zhuo Daynight, and smashed them into the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood and pretended to look at Ling Que with unwillingness before quickly fleeing.
Ling Que stood in place, confused. This person had been injured by his attack, and the blood on his Que's Mighty Slash was real. This person should not have been able to block Ling Que's Mighty Slash, but how had he been able to clamp down?
He could not figure it out.
No one could figure it out, and there was only one explanation: this person had used his innate gift to clamp down on his Que's Mighty Slash, but such an innate gift could not be used continuously.
This was the only explanation, as there were all sorts of innate gifts in the universe. Of course, there was another possibility, which was that this person had pretended to be injured, but no one could think of a reason for that. This was an opportunity to become famous throughout the universe, so it should not be fake.
Many people relaxed when they thought of this possibility. Fortunately, no unpredictable powerhouses had appeared.
Lu Yin had purposely allowed himself to be injured by the Que's Mighty Slash in order to confuse everyone. He did not want to reveal his identity. As for rescuing Zhuo Daynight, perhaps some people would have guessed that it was him, but as long as he did not reveal his true identity, he would be fine.
Lu Yin hugged Zhuo Daynight tightly as he stomped on the ground and sank down, avoiding the surveillance of the various powers in outer space. He then took out the white fruit from his cosmic ring, pried open Zhuo Daynight's mouth, and stuffed it inside. Whether or not she could be saved would depend on luck.
"Seventh Bro, what did you feed that woman?
Why does she have such a surging life force? "the monkey asked.
