Chapter 40: Sorry. I Must Win This Match

The thin and small man in black had something up his sleeve!

Lu Li’s expression turned cold when he saw his new opponent

Although he was only at the sixth level of qi refinement realm, Lu Li could smell danger.

This last battle was very likely to result in Lu Li’s death!

“Wait!”

Seeing that the black-clothed man was about to walk to the center of the hall, Lu Li’s expression turned solemn as he shouted.

“Eh? Brat, don’t tell me you want to run away from the battle? If you dare to run away, I’ll be the first to kill you!”

Heavenshaker’s gaze was fierce as he said.

“Of course not.”

Lu Li’s expression was cold as he uttered slowly, “I used up a little too much mana and qi in the battles just now. Now, let me recover first. By the way, let me change my clothes. There shouldn’t be any problems, right?”

Heavenshaker had nothing to say when he heard Lu Li’s words.

Hell Master and the others frowned slightly and did not raise any objections.

Thus, Lu Li walked back to the side of Demonic Devil and cupped his hands. “Master, please bestow the Vermilion Fruit. I need the fruit to recover my mana and qi.”

“Okay. Be careful.”

Demonic Devil waved his hand and threw out a Vermilion Fruit as he reminded Lu Li to be careful.

“I’ll be careful.”

Lu Li nodded. He caught the Vermilion Fruit and ate it in a few mouthfuls.

At the same time, he waved his right hand and took out a piece of clothing from his storage ring. He changed the clothes that had been torn by the blades just now.

He changed his clothes slowly as if he was stalling for time.

In the hall, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the man in black. His expression did not change, and he did not say anything to urge him.

On the other hand, Li Jing, who was sitting at the table, had a gloomy look. His hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, and he was impatient.

The others were surprised to see Lu Li accept the challenge.

Could it be that Lu Li still had a trump card?

Bai Jinfei and Yao Yao, were curious, but they were worried of Lu Li too.

They knew it.

The black-clothed man in front of them was Hell Master’s trump card!

Junior Brother Lu was in danger!

At this time, Lu Li finally changed into a green robe. He was full of energy, and his mana had completely recovered.

Everyone’s expression turned solemn as they stared at Lu Li.

Even Guardian Elder’s expression turned solemn as he stared at Lu Li.

After all, the stakes behind that battle were too high! Even Guardian Elder was paying close attention to it!

“Alright.”

Lu Li turned around and faced the skinny black-clothed man. He smiled and said, “Senior Brother, to be fair, I’ll count down from 3. When I count to 1, we’ll begin. How about it?”

“Alright.”

The skinny black-clothed man nodded and said in a deep voice.

It seemed like he had something in his mouth.

The magical energy in his body began to surge. He poured his mana into the Pear Blossom and Soul Catching Tiger Talisman in his hands.

At the same time, the Saber Pill in his mouth began to shine and streaks of silver sword patterns began to appear on the surface of the Saber Pill.

Once the competition started, he would use the Soul Catching Tiger Talisman to shock Lu Li!

It would make him unable to move for a while!

Then, he would throw the Pear Blossom and the Saber Pill at Lu Li at the same time!

No matter how powerful Lu Li was, he would still be split into 2 halves on the spot. Maybe he would turn into a beehive when Pear Blossom hit him!

“Good! 3…”

Lu Li started counting down from 3.

The thin and small black-clothed man was extremely focused. He stared at Lu Li’s mouth and had already started to make predictions. He was prepared to attack ahead of time when Lu Li finished shouting 2. He would attack him before he could finish shouting 1.

Lu Li definitely would not be able to react in time and would be killed in an instant!

Hmph. Hmph.

He dared to offend Senior Brother Li and Hell Master? He must have a death wish!

“… 1!”

However, Lu Li did not shout 2. Instead, the black-clothed man could clearly hear 1.

Huh?

What?

The black-clothed man was stunned for a moment.

Just as he was in a daze…

“Bang!”

The earth shook violently!

Lu Li’s blood qi exploded in all directions like fire.

His figure flashed, and he transformed into 10 afterimages.

Ghostly Steps Technique!

Ghost Shadows! 10 afterimages!

That caused the thin and small black-clothed man to be blurred for a moment. He was unable to lock onto his target.

In the next moment, in his eyes, these 10 figures soared into the sky and pounced toward him.

Moreover, 10 afterimages simultaneously stretched out a huge palm in the air.

What was that?

A palm technique that descended from the sky?

The skinny black-clothed man subconsciously raised his head. Once again, he was stunned.

Suddenly…

Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!

Dragon roars suddenly sounded in the hall, shattering one’s eardrums.

Along with the shocking dragon roars, the skinny black-clothed man shockingly discovered that golden dragons actually flew out from the palms of these 10 afterimages!

A total of 10 golden dragons rushed toward him!

These ten golden dragons were ten feet long and as thick as a hundred-year-old tree. They were half-real and half-illusory. Their bodies shone with golden light as they swayed their tails and roared as they charged over!

The dragons’ eyes were red, and they looked ferocious!

Flying Dragon Technique!

Upon seeing the golden dragons charging toward him, the skinny black-clothed man was shocked. He finally reacted, but he could not care too much. He swung both his hands and opened his mouth.

Roar!

In an instant, a tiger roar that shook the mountains and forests sounded.

A black tiger, whose entire body had turned illusory, pounced forward ferociously.

There was also a huge pear that bloomed once it left his hand. It shot out hundreds of thousands of golden poison needles.

In his mouth, there was a silver sword light. It was like a divine light that could split the sea. It slashed at Lu Li ruthlessly!

A golden dragon was cut into half.

However, the other poisonous needles and the illusory black tiger passed through the body of the golden dragons.

They did not cause any damage to the golden dragons.

In the next moment, the remaining 9 red-eyed golden dragons crashed into the body of the skinny black-clothed man.

The eyes of the skinny black-clothed man instantly widened and bulged.

His entire body trembled violently.

Then, 9 golden dragons flew out of his body. The golden dragons started to disappear. It turned into specks of golden light and disappearing into the air.

Bang!

An explosion occurred.

A huge flower of blood bloomed in the middle of the hall.

It was extremely beautiful as blood splattered in all directions.

The smell of blood immediately spread out and enveloped the entire hall.

Where the skinny black-clothed man had originally stood, there was only blood on the ground, as well as torn clothes.

There was also a black iron die, a broken jade talisman, and a black jade storage ring.

He… was gone. Completely gone.

At the entrance, Lu Li flipped over and landed on the ground. His face was slightly pale, but he was still standing straight.

“I’m sorry, but I won this competition.”

His gaze was sharp as he swept across the entire hall and said coldly.

After saying this, he raised his hand again. Yellow paper money filled the sky, fluttering in the wind.

Everyone was stunned when they saw the yellow paper money fall on the blood and turn red.

Even Demonic Devil was shocked by Lu Li

Lu Li had won again?

It was an instant kill! Again!

The black-clothed man with a bunch of killer moves still died at Lu Li’s hands! He did not even last for 3 seconds!

His corpse was gone too!

That was too fast.

On the other side, the calm expression on Hell Master’s face finally disappeared, and traces of coldness appeared.

Flying Fox Monster and Heavenshaker also widened their eyes in disbelief.

Li Jing had the worst expression in the hall.

In an instant, his face turned gloomy, and suddenly, it turned pale. He clenched his teeth tightly, as if he was going to break his teeth in the next moment.

The skinny man died just like that?

He did not even leave a wound on Lu Li’s body?

Li Jing caused his master, Flying Fox Monster, and Heavenshaker to lose their treasures.

Pfft.

Thinking of this, Li Jing’s pupils dilated, and he spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.

“I refuse to accept the outcome of the battle!”

At this time, with a bang, Heavenshaker smashed the new table that had just been moved over. He stood up with a face full of anger as he shouted loudly, “You said that you were going to count down from 3. You counted from 3 to 1. You’re shameless! I refuse to accept it!”

When everyone heard Heavenshaker’s words, they instantly got back to their senses.

He was right.

Lu Li clearly said that he would count down from 3, but he jumped from 3 to 1. He was shameless.

Everybody looked at Lu Li.

“I’m not acting shamelessly.”

Lu Li’s expression was calm as he uttered, “Heavenshaker, think carefully about what I said just now. I said that in order to be fair, I’ll count down from 3. When I count to one, the competition will begin.”

“That’s right! Brat, I remember it clearly! You counted from 3 to 1!”

Heavenshaker held his Divine Ganoderma tightly as his gaze sharp and cold.

“Heavenshaker, think about it carefully.”

Lu Li smiled, and his smile was evil. “What did I say after the black-clothed man agreed?”

“You said good! 3! 1! After that, you made a move! Isn’t that acting shamelessly?”

Heavenshaker said with murderous intent.

After hearing his words, Hell Master’s expression was awful.

Crimson Lord, Lu He, Demonic Devil, Guardian Elder, Yao Yao’s eyes lit up.

They already knew what Lu Li meant.

“Heavenshaker, it seems that your brain isn’t functioning well.”

Suddenly, Lu Li raised 3 fingers and crooked them one by one. Then, he said with an evil smile, “Good! 3! 1! Isn’t this 3 numbers? I did count to one before I made my move!”

“Therefore, I won this competition fair and square!”
