The golden blood energy permeated the air.

Lu Yuan stood amidst it.

The aura he emitted was even stronger than before.

He was like a War God incarnate, peerlessly powerful.

Opposite him, Zhou Yunqiong kept retreating, her face turning pale.

At this moment, she had already used her true strength, pushing the Ji Clan's True Phoenix Skill to its limits.

Normally, in this state, her combat power would increase tremendously, exceeding the limits of the Venerable King Realm.

To oppose her, one would likely need to be in the Saint Realm.

Added to her own powerful bloodline.

As long as they're in the same realm.

Anyone, except for the top-ranked prodigies of the great families in each Star Realm, could be directly crushed.

Thus, Zhou Yunqiong had extreme confidence in her own strength, which was the fundamental reason she finally decided to battle Lu Yuan.

The other party could slay saints, indeed very strong, but that was under the suppression of the Saint Realm by heaven and earth. Even if not a match, wouldn't there at least be the strength to put up a fight?

But now it seemed, she might have overthought it. During the battle, the aura Lu Yuan revealed was extremely intimidating.

"Lu Yuan, you are heartless, don't blame me for being disloyal then." Zhou Yunqiong's anger intensified, she really hadn't expected it.

The opponent had been ruthless from the start, while she had merely been cautious.

Yet now, not even an ounce of past camaraderie remained.

Immediately.

She raised her hand.

Infusing power into the jade hairpin.

Buzzing~

A wave of Holy Intent continuously emanated from it, exuding an incredibly intense killing intent.

This was a Holy Weapon, and at this moment, its power was fully unleashed, becoming extremely terrifying.

At the same time, she activated the True Phoenix Skill again, throwing out both of her trump cards.

Zhou Yunqiong was enveloped in a fierce radiance.

A strong aura surged, spreading out.

Causing the air around to tremble.

Emitting a constant buzzing sound.

She was indeed very strong, and an ordinary Venerable King Realm would stand no chance against her.

No wonder, even the Four Great Beast Kings were completely suppressed when joining forces.

But now, her opponent was Lu Yuan.

Facing Zhou Yunqiong, who had used two different trump cards, he didn't show a trace of concern.

Just like that, he punched down, without even using Divine Techniques or the Ancestral Dragon Breathing Technique.

Back then, he could completely withstand against Lei You and others.

Holy Weapons were indeed strong, but the one wielding it couldn't truly unleash its might, especially now, Lu Yuan's thoughts during the battle had become quite simple, no matter what technique you employed, I would break it by sheer force.

Rumble~

At this moment.

Every punch Lu Yuan threw carried his own will.

The golden blood energy directly transformed into an ocean, enveloping the entire surrounding area.

Opposite, under such power, the jade hairpin trembled slightly, its will suppressed.

Even Zhou Yunqiong, her body trembled slightly, watching Lu Yuan with horror on her face, feeling as if facing a terrifying exotic beast, the power in each punch like an enraged True Dragon, boundlessly terrifying.

Helplessly, she had to retract the hairpin, then try her best to fend off the subsequent attacks.

But ultimately, she still underestimated Lu Yuan's current strength.

Boom~

Another punch.

Accompanied by the roar of thunder.

The surrounding golden blood energy boiled like magma.

A powerful might erupted from within, like a hundred thousand volcanoes erupting simultaneously.

Splat~

Zhou Yunqiong spewed fresh blood.

Unable to control the Holy Weapon, it fell to the ground.

Her whole body kept retreating, like a kite with a broken string.

"How could the gap be this large?" She was truly shocked, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

She had already overestimated Lu Yuan's capabilities, yet despite using all her strength, was not a match.

At this moment, Zhou Yunqiong could completely see that the opponent hadn't yet exerted full effort, yet still showed a crushing demeanor.

The Holy Weapon, Ji Clan's Forbidden Divine Technique True Phoenix Skill, was not an opponent even for one round.

She didn't understand, could the gap be this big?

Meanwhile.

Lu Yuan had no intention of stopping.

Stepping forward once more, the aura around him grew thicker.

"Protect the young miss." Uncle Zuo, witnessing this scene, was immediately terrified.

Without hesitation, he called upon the Zhou Family disciples nearby to act together.

The young miss was the hope of the Zhou Family, nothing could happen to her.

But.

Facing all this, Lu Yuan.

He didn't even glance, his internal organs vibrating.

A great sun emerged behind him, layers of powerful aura spreading.

Causing the surrounding temperature to rise sharply, particularly that imposing might, like a wild mountainous landscape, directly pressing down.

Splat~

In an instant.

Four or five Zhou Family disciples' bodies cracked, blood spilling on the spot.

Bear in mind, now, Lu Yuan could even battle those not suppressed in the Saint Realm, with all kinds of methods, even achieving slaying.

These people were indeed elites, but their strength ultimately was only in the Shackles Realm. Don't mention resistance, even approaching was impossible.

Among them, the strongest Uncle Zuo kept retreating, face pale, with blood continuously oozing from his mouth and nose.

"Lu Yuan, do you really want to completely oppose me, oppose the Zhou Family?"

From a distance, having just stabilized her posture, Zhou Yunqiong was immensely startled upon seeing this.

While others might be disregarded.

Yet Uncle Zuo.

He was her most loyal subordinate.

If this continued, he might be directly suppressed to death.

Thus, in the end, she chose to speak, attempting to stop him.

But Lu Yuan did not respond at all, stepping mid-air.

With the heartbeat's tremor.

The aura around him suppressed down upon Uncle Zuo and those Zhou Family disciples instantly.

Boom~

The next moment.

All the Zhou Family disciples present.

Including Uncle Zuo, instantly turned into a mist of blood, their vitality disappeared.

The gap was truly too large, simply irreparable.

Now.

Lu Yuan was genuinely invincible under the starry sky.

In this world, how many could withstand a strike?

Behind.

The Four Great Beast Kings saw this without any surprise, because they all knew, once Lu Yuan decided, whatever happened his resolve would not change, overwhelmingly powerful, unrivaled, this was the stance of the foremost warrior of the current age.

"Lu Yuan, you've gone too far."

Zhou Yunqiong tightly clenched her fists.

The aura within her was also directly released.

Yet, despite her immense fury, a sense of regret involuntarily arose within her.

Why did she have to scheme against Lu Yuan initially? Instead of reaching out favorably from the start.

Such a powerful figure, if he could be used for the Zhou Family, how wonderful would it be?

And also there was one point.

She still couldn't quite understand.

In the past, someone she never paid heed to.

How did he manage to reach this stage today...

"Oh? Is it?"

"There's more to come."

At this moment.

Lu Yuan spoke once more, gazing at Zhou Yunqiong in the distance.

He didn't care what she was contemplating because it was utterly meaningless.

Back then, when she employed Winged Celestial God to scheme against him, everything was already determined.

When others have bullied you to this extent.

Can you still endure it?

And as Lu Yuan's words fell, he stepped forth, standing before Zhou Yunqiong, his expression indifferent: "Now, it's your turn."
