Wendy Yushan's eyes flickered with murderous intent. "Why do you want to kill him?"
Scholar Newmoon sighed. "If I don't kill him, then I'll lose my dignity as an Enlighter. How presumptuous of a Limiteer to claim to be an Enlighter's nemesis."
"You're the ones who are pushing me too far," Wendy Yushan said coldly.
Scholar Newmoon smiled. "Is that so? You're still young, so you don't understand. When you're in my position, all the rules no longer matter. Resources belong to the universe, not to individuals or organizations. If I need them, then I can use them. Is that too much?"
"You call yourself a scholar, but you actually believe in such a robber's theory!" Wendy Yushan retorted.
Scholar Newmoon shook his head and sighed. "You don't understand, and I don't expect you to either. Alright, tell me the secret technique, and I can spare your life. I can even take you as my disciple."
Wendy Yushan gripped her sword hilt tightly and took out the Money Bomb with her left hand.
In the distant tower, Puyu and Liu Shaoge looked over. "An Enlighter senior is more confident," Puyu said confidently.
Liu Shaoge's eyes flickered, but no one knew what he was thinking.
Inside the courtyard, Wendy Yushan pushed Zhao Ran aside. "Stay away. Don't get close."
Zhao Ran walked out of the courtyard in a daze.
Scholar Newmoon sized up Wendy Yushan. "Don't worry, I'm not so despicable as to use a normal person to threaten you. Besides, you're not worth my threats. Come over so that I don't have to do anything. You should know the difference between you and an Enlighter."
Wendy Yushan unsheathed her sword and slashed at Scholar Newmoon. She had used her actions to express her determination. Scholar Newmoon shook his head. "You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth." He then raised his arm and grabbed forward. Wendy Yushan's Ten Thousand Swords in One sword qi almost tore through the void, but it was shattered by Scholar Newmoon. Star energy spread out from his palm and transformed into a giant hand that grabbed at Wendy Yushan.
Wendy Yushan was just an Explorer, and the difference between her and an Enlighter was too great. Her strongest sword qi couldn't even break through Scholar Newmoon's star energy.
Wendy Yushan's eyes trembled as she saw the giant hand grab her. "Yu Secret Art. Void Transfer." As soon as she finished speaking, the giant hand formed from star energy suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of her... Wendy Yushan.. Scholar Newmoon's attack...............
Scholar Newmoon was astonished. So this was a secret technique. His eyes burned with passion.
In the distance, Puyu and Liu Shaoge were shocked when they saw this scene. An Explorer had actually diverted an Enlighter's attack. This was a secret technique that could turn something rotten into something miraculous.
Scholar Newmoon casually waved his hand, causing the giant palm formed from star energy to disappear. He then looked at Wendy Yushan with an expectant gaze. "As expected of a secret technique. Hand it over, and I guarantee that I won't make things difficult for you."
Wendy Yushan suddenly activated her gadget and opened her screen. A headless corpse appeared on the screen. "Scholar Newmoon, do you recognize this person?"
Scholar Newmoon frowned. "I don't know anyone in the Outerverse, so don't even think about using someone else's life to threaten me."
Wendy Yushan coldly replied, "He's Elder Wu."
Scholar Newmoon's eyes narrowed. "Impossible!" He stared at the screen, and his expression gradually became one of shock. Puyu descended from the sky and stared at the screen in shock. "Elder! It's the elder!"
Scholar Newmoon looked at Puyu, his gaze cold. "Are you sure it's Elder Wu?"
Puyu nodded, a look of shock on his face. "It's an elder."
Scholar Newmoon looked at Wendy Yushan. "Who killed him?"
"What do you think?"
Wendy Yushan raised her head and pointed her sword at Scholar Newmoon. "He's almost here. If you want to die, you can stay behind and become the fourth Enlighter corpse under his command."
"That's impossible. That brat killed Karthika and Lei Long by catching them off guard, but Elder Wu was already wary of him. How could an Enlighter be killed by that brat? This must be fake!" Scholar Newmoon shouted.
Wendy Yushan retracted her screen. "You can judge for yourself whether it's fake or not. In any case, he's almost here."
Scholar Newmoon's expression changed, and he stared at Wendy Yushan. Puyu's eyes were filled with hatred, as he was certain that the person on the screen was Elder Wu. The death of Darkstar Gorge's only Enlighter was a huge loss to Darkstar Gorge. Darkstar Gorge had offended too many people over the past few years, and once news of Elder Wu's death spread, Darkstar Gorge would be in deep trouble.
"Senior, Lu Yin needs time to arrive, and he definitely doesn't have the strength to easily deal with an Enlighter. You can capture this woman first and use her to pressure Lu Yin. You might even be able to obtain the strength that Lu Yin used to kill Enlighters," Puyu suggested.
Scholar Newmoon's eyes flashed, and his body suddenly vanished. Wendy Yushan knew that things weren't looking good, so she fired a Money Bomb in a direction where no one was around. A beam of light shot out from the Money Bomb, and the next moment, Scholar Newmoon appeared beside Wendy Yushan and reached out to grab her. "What a powerful attack. That must be the thing that helped you kill Karthika and Lei Long. Unfortunately, I was prepared for it."
Wendy Yushan waved her left hand. "Yu Secret Art, Void Transfer." The next moment, the beam of light that had been aimed at no one suddenly disappeared. Scholar Newmoon's expression changed, and he quickly tried to escape into the void. However, a beam of light appeared in front of him and struck his abdomen, sending him crashing into the ground. It pierced through San Dios and smashed into the Prairie Flame Continent.
Scholar Newmoon had forgotten that since the Yu Secret Art could divert another person's attack, it could also divert one's own attack. Wendy Yushan knew that he was on guard against the Money Bomb, so she had purposely fired it to lure Scholar Newmoon out. Only then would she have the opportunity to strike.
Reality proved that she had made the right bet, as the Money Bomb's attack was not easy to defend against. Even if Scholar Newmoon did not die, he would still be severely injured.
Everything had happened too quickly. Scholar Newmoon had only disappeared and reappeared when his entire body was smashed into the Prairie Flame Continent.
Wendy Yushan slashed out with her sword, and sword qi streaked through the void towards Puyu. Puyu was still in shock, but when he saw the sword qi coming at him, he raised his arm. His entire arm suddenly transformed into metal as it transformed into a sharp spear. Green veins covered his arm, and blue stripes extended outwards. This was seven lined battle force.
There was a thump as Puyu waved his arm and sliced apart the sword qi. He then coldly stared at Wendy Yushan. "You want to deal with me?
Don't forget that I'm ranked above you. "He then leapt towards Wendy Yushan.
Now that the universe had changed, they could no longer tear through the void as easily as they had before. However, with Puyu's speed, the average powerhouse would not be able to see him. It was no different from tearing through the void.
Wendy Yushan turned her gaze to her right and slashed out with her sword. There was a thump as a powerful shockwave swept out in all directions.
Outside the courtyard, Barley and the other councilors hurriedly retreated. Some of the cultivators from the Innerverse who had not yet returned to the Innerverse retreated as well. This shockwave transformed into a fierce shockwave that swept through all of San Dios, splitting the ground.
Wendy Yushan retreated a few steps as Puyu growled. His left arm suddenly melted and transformed into a hook-shaped weapon that stabbed towards Wendy Yushan. Wendy Yushan blocked it with her sword and then flipped it around in an attempt to cut off Puyu's neck. However, Puyu did not dodge, and his neck turned into metal as well. There was a loud thump as it collided with the sword. Wendy Yushan's attack was unsuccessful as Puyu's left arm transformed into a hook-shaped weapon and stabbed into her shoulder. There was a tearing sound as blood splattered onto the ground. Wendy Yushan's right shoulder had been injured, and large chunks of flesh had been torn off.
Puyu's arm recovered, and his palm was covered in Wendy Yushan's blood. "There's a huge gap between us. On Planet Pyrolyte, you couldn't even defeat Nightking Gu, so how can you deal with me?"
Wendy Yushan's left hand covered her right shoulder as a faint halo radiated from her body. She was healing herself.
Puyu snorted, and his arm transformed into a metal weapon once again as it stabbed towards Wendy Yushan. Wendy Yushan slashed out more than ten times in a row, and each strike contained the power to instantly kill Zhanbing Daynight. Even if Puyu was confident that he could block so many sword qi attacks, he would not choose to face them head-on like Nightking Gu. Instead, he would choose to avoid them.
There was a thump as San Dios shook. Puyu's arm was blocked by Wendy Yushan's sword. Wendy Yushan waved her left hand, and Puyu's pupils shrank when he saw this. Not good! It's a secret technique! He immediately retreated without a second thought, but a sword qi slashed out from where he had been standing and tore his clothes apart.
Puyu felt a lingering fear, but fortunately, he had retreated in time. However, things were not over yet. Wendy Yushan slashed out more than ten times, and each sword qi attack was redirected by her secret technique and completely engulfed Puyu.
San Dios shook violently as smoke and dust filled the air.
Everyone watched in a daze, as it had been a long time since such an intense battle had taken place here. Both sides were experts ranked in the top twenty of the Top 100 Rankings.
Wendy Yushan panted heavily as she treated her right shoulder and stared at the spot where Puyu had been attacked.
A gust of wind blew past and dispersed the dust, revealing Puyu. He was in a very sorry state, as Wendy Yushan's sword qi had not been easy to endure. Even Puyu had been injured. He was not Nightking Gu, and he did not have the Nightking's Body. He did not have the recovery abilities of the Nightking clan. Even though he had relied on his innate gift and battle force to hold on, his internal organs had still been severely suppressed.
Lu Yin had guessed that Wendy Yushan's secret technique would allow her to challenge the top fifteen of the Top 100 Rankings, and reality had proven him right. At least for now, Wendy Yushan did not fear Puyu.
Puyu's eyes were gloomy as he glared at Wendy Yushan with hatred. If not for her secret technique, he was confident that he could suppress this woman. However, a secret technique had changed the entire situation. This was the might of a secret technique, and he had to obtain it.
Suddenly, Wendy Yushan turned to the east, where Scholar Newmoon had torn through the void and walked out. He looked to be in a very sorry state and was not much better off than Puyu. His abdomen was dyed red with blood, and his face was extremely pale.
When she saw Scholar Newmoon, another Money Bomb appeared in Wendy Yushan's hand. Back on Planet Pyrolyte, Lu Yin had given it to Wendy Yushan when she had faced Nightking Gu and Long Yun. It was an unupgraded Money Bomb, and now, Wendy Yushan had taken it out.
When he saw the Money Bomb, Scholar Newmoon's expression changed, and his eyes filled with endless fear.
This weapon alone was not enough to threaten him, but if it was combined with a secret technique, then even Scholar Newmoon was not completely confident that he could block it. He had experienced the might of that Money Bomb, and if not for the fact that he had a power vessel, he would have been seriously injured and would not have appeared again.
"Girl, do you think that I'll let you attack me again?
You're underestimating Enlighters, "Scholar Newmoon threatened.
Wendy Yushan's eyes narrowed, and she raised the Money Bomb and aimed it in an empty direction. "Do you want to try?"
