<strong>Chapter 228 Lan Luo vs Hua Qiyue</strong>


    “Why not do it this way. You stay here, Qiyue, while I go and take a look!” Ji Feng stood up and said quietly.


    “No. I, too, feel like someone’s watching me. If I don’t turn up, that Eighth Pce Leader won’t let things rest.”


    Hua Qiyue gave a slight smile. She went out before all the rest. The rest of the guests also rushed out to watch the scene.


    The moon had just risen. Tworgenterns had been lit and ced high before the inn, enveloping Hua Qiyue’s person in its faint red glow. Her white skirt fluttered in the breeze and her ck hair was all tied up. Her ravishing little countenance showed her calm and confidence.


    Xuanji and the others followed behind her. Sure enough, a sedan soon appeared racing here. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived before Hua Qiyue.


    The sedan stopped amid all the gasps of the watching crowds.


    The Eighth Pce Leader had rarely appeared outside his pce.


    If there wasn’t anything important, he would surely note out so resolutely. But Hua Qiyue’s appearance was a big matter.


    After all, Hua Qiyue was wanted under the Dark Sect’s arrest warrant.


    “That’s Hua Qiyue!”


    “Wow! What a gloriously stunning beauty. I’m afraid no one could match her peerless looks and heroic demeanor!”


    “Look quickly at that man... he’s the Eighth Pce Leader!”


    At this point, someone on the sedan drew the curtain aside and a ck-robed man with an unkempt head of blue hair walked out.


    Lan Luo only came with his four sedan-bearers and two aides. He wanted to see Hua Qiyue in person. Was she as beautiful as they had rumored?


    Otherwise, he would stay in his pce sleeping, since sleeping was one of his favorite hobbies. His other, being, of course, women.


    Lan Luo raised his head and stared at the woman all in white before him. He saw her lovely eyes indifferent as stars, shining with a cold, nonchnt light. Her peerless beauty stunned himpletely after he saw her!


    Definitely on another level than Hua Mengshi!


    Hua Mengshi was no longer as cold and aloof as she was before. She was mainly now seductively alluring.


    But Hua Qiyue was mainly noble. Her peerless countenance could not be matched by anyone’s in this world. Every man who had seen her would have his heart stolen.


    Lan Luo swallowed his saliva and started to grin. “I am the Eighth Pce Leader, Lan Luo. What a great beauty. We’ve finally met. I’ve been dreaming about you day and night. Come... let’s talk inside my sedan. Be good, then I’ll appoint you as my Left or Right Aide!”


    His words made the faces of the two beauties behind him change.


    Hua Qiyue stared indifferently at Lan Luo. Lan Luo was at his most outstanding in his awful head of blue hair. It really made him quite unforgettable.


    Even if this Lan Luo had died and disappeared from Hua Qiyue’s sight, she would always remember his waist-length, windblown head of hair.


    In the near distance, a pair of eyes was watching this coldly.


    “I am Hua Qiyue. Pce Leader, I’m of the Blood Cleansing Alliance. In other words, we are enemies. I’m sure neither of us will back down unless one of us dies!” Hua Qiyue gave a faint smile. Huangfu Xuan took a step out.


    He whispered to Hua Qiyue. “Qiyue, let me deal with him!”


    Huangfu Xuan’s Qi Art had reached the lower level of Cultivation Dimension. Although he was not as powerful as Ji Feng, he could be regarded as an outstanding Qi Artist.


    Hua Qiyue shook her head. “This Pce Leader is at the greatpleteness of Round Sun. You can’t beat him.”


    Hua Qiyue’s words turned Huangfu Xuan’s face slightly ghastly. Hua Qiyue was right. He was not capable enough to kill Lan Luo.


    Lan Luo started to guffaw. In the night, his face was exceptionally gruesome. The faces of the two female aides with him changed color and they nced at Hua Qiyue sympathetically.


    Each time the Pce Leader acted like this, he would go crazy. Once he went crazy... women would die from the games he would y.


    Onlookers began to gather around. Hua Qiyue, who had be famous from Changjing Kingdom to Yuewu Kingdom, and the Eighth Pce Leader of the Dark Sect were awesome fighters. There were few chances to see them both together.


    “Peerless beauty, let me fight you. Only you are qualified to be my opponent!”


    Saying that, Lan Luo gently raised his hand. A ice-cold, silvery light shed across his palm. The surrounding air started to freeze.


    Hua Qiyue was toozy to spend time fighting with this man. This man was the Eighth Pce Leader, neither too weak nor too powerful. If they fought in the ordinary way, they would expend a long time to fight.


    Besides, he was the Eighth Pce Leader. If she could kill him in 10 moves, then...


    She would stun everyone!


    One must know that many Qi Artists coveted her Drunken Flower Fan. If she had brandished it, she would draw the attention of the Dark Sect... but surely they knew how powerful she was?


    Therefore Hua Qiyue did not have a qualm. She coalesced the anima energy on her right middle finger and parted her lips lightly. “Deity-ying Finger!”


    Puff! A strong anima energy instantly condensed into a streak of sword light, shooting out at her opponent!


    Lan Luo knew that Hua Qiyue was someone at the greatpleteness of Round Sun. He did not dare underestimate her. The light ball from his palm hurtled toward her, shing with Hua Qiyue’s Deity-ying Finger!


    Boom—


    With a muffled boom, their Qi Arts had canceled out each other!


    Lan Luo took one step back. When he saw Hua Qiyue standing rooted to the ground, he was quietly astounded. It looked like Hua Qiyue was even more powerful than she had appeared on the surface.


    “Celestial-ying Finger!” Hua Qiyue gave a cold bellow. Lan Luo instantly began to guffaw. “Hahaha, another of your old move! Hua Qiyue, don’t you have some other lethal skill? Well, well, I’ve expended only 60% of my powers with that move...”


    Lan Luo began to guffaw smugly. As heughed, he casually executed another move.


    He thought that Hua Qiyue’s Deity-ying Finger was simr to her Celestial-ying Finger.


    Unfortunately, Hua Qiyue’s finger gleam soared toward him, piercing through his Yang-ying Palm wantonly!


    Pfft—


    A soft noise. Hua Qiyue’s Celestial-ying Finger had hit Lan Luo’s arm, inflicting him with a severe, throbbing pain.


    Lan Luo was taken aback. He immediately coalesced his anima energy to shield his body, blocking the destructive power outside.


    “Heart of Fire!” Hua Qiyue gave a light cry. Her hands condensed the anima energy of the heaven and the earth into a burning sea of fire. As Hua Qiyue’s strength intensified, the power of her every lethal skill also increased exponentially!


    Fire! A boundless, raging fire crackled and lurched toward Lan Luo!


    The crowds started to shout and disperse. Although Hua Qiyue’s opponent was not them, they could still sense its earth-tremoring power!


    The air previously frozen by Lan Luo’s chill suddenly became scorching hot. Xuanji and the rest had to protect their bodies with anima energy to prevent any injuries!


    “Ah...” Lan Luo was instantly surrounded by Hua Qiyue’s Heart of Fire, his whole body almost beginning to burn.


    His mop of disheveled hair started to frizzle, zing in the blue fire.


    A huge terror overwhelmed Lan Luo’s heart. Hua Qiyue must have withheld some of her strength. But why was her power so terrifying?


    It was clear they were of the same level. Yet the pressure and power Hua Qiyue put on him seemed several levels higher!


    When he realized that his handsome face was almost burned, Lan Luo started to growl loudly and impracticably, “Hua Qiyue, I admit defeat, I do! Quick, stop!”


    As he said this, he tried to summon his anima energy to protect his body. “Instant Freezing— Ice Rain Blossoms!”


    The anima energy summoned by him instantly turned into a shower of ice, immediately quenching Hua Qiyue’s fire.


    Lan Luo’s ck robe was burned into tatters by the mes. The two maidservants and four sedan-bearers all stared at him with widened eyes. Looking at the sorry state of their Pce Leader, they could not quite believe their eyes!


    After all, Hua Qiyue looked like a young woman. Even if her Qi Art was very powerful, they could never have imagined such a superficially weak and gentle woman beating their Pce Leader into a pulp.


    “Hua Qiyue, you’ve won. Goodbye!” Lan Luo knew full well that he was not her opponent. He tried to escape with his unique footwork. Instead, Hua Qiyue gave a light smile.


    “Well, aren’t you inviting me into your sedan for a chat?” Hua Qiyue’s voice was tender and melodious. She made thescivious Lan Luo’s heart skip a beat, looking into her lovely, watery eyes.


    However, the moment Lan Luo looked into Hua Qiyue’s eyes, he found himself unable to move at all. He seemed to have entered into a massive dreamworld, with scorching heat everywhere. He was frantic with anxiety, but he could not walk out of the imaginary scene imposed by Hua Qiyue!


    Hua Qiyue’s Spirit Summoning Art was already at the sixth level. She could conjure up powerful imaginary scene to confuse the other.


    This was different from other Hallucination Arts. The power of a Hallucination Art was a mere few percent that of the Spirit Summoning Art. They were not at the same level at all.


    “Where... is this ce?” Lan Luo’s face started to change, his heart thumping wildly. It was the first time that he had met with such a powerful opponent. He could not help getting terrified.


    “This is the imaginary scene world I have conjured up for you, Lan Luo. You are from the Dark Sect and know the Dark Sect well. Ho-ho, if you are my ally, it will be easy to deal with the Dark Sect!” So this was what Hua Qiyue was really after. Her voice started to resound in Lan Luo’s world.


    And this voice could only be heard by Lan Luo.


    Everyone could only see the dazed Lan Luo and a quiet Hua Qiyue.


    It was better not to show off the Spirit Summoning Art. After all, there were some old devils in Tianyuan Continent. If she provoked those devils, Hua Qiyue would be in really big trouble.


    Let us not mention whether she could fight them. Right now, she was most interested in locating Tianci. If she had met with those old devils and they started pestering her, she would lose the chance to find him.


    “No... I am the grand Eighth Pce Leader. How can I ally with you to oppose the Dark Sect? You must know our Sect Leader’s very powerful. He is at the medium level of Holy God!”


    Lan Luo’s face was terribly pale. Hua Qiyue’s great power invoked terror in him.


    “The medium level of Holy God? Hmm, really a most powerful figure.” Hua Qiyue was shocked. It looked like the Dark Sect would be even harder to deal with than the Gnawing Devils Sect.


    But she needed Lan Luo to join her to boost the strength of her team.


    “Yes. Hua Qiyue, if you are sensible, better leave this ce. Otherwise, once you met with the Sect Leader... you won’t have a chance to even run!” Lan Luo said hurriedly. If Hua Qiyue ran, wouldn’t he be set free?


    “Haha, I’m not afraid of the medium level of Holy God. Lan Luo, are you not willing to join me?” Hua Qiyue remarked coldly.


    “I am not...”


    Lan Luo refused. He really did not want to oppose a Qi Artist at the medium level of Holy God.


    But the moment his voice faded, the imaginary scene started to ze madly, causing his robe to catch fire. His skin was roasted and it throbbed with pain!


    “Gasp...” Lan Luo inhaled a breath of air. Although he knew that it was an imaginary scene, his opponent’s powers were too great. That searing pain had felt so real!
