Chapter 0746 The Strong Assault

Chapter 0746: The Powerful Ambush

Yue You was dead serious, but Qin Yun didn’t take it seriously at all, which made her shake with anger. When she suppressed her killing intent, she was at her most terrifying.

"You bastard, don’t even think about it!" Yue You snarled.

"I was just joking! You wear a mask all the time, you must be too hideous to show your face. I wouldn’t take you anyway!" Qin Yun said as he stepped off the arena.

"Don’t you dare leave! Fight me—I must defeat you!" Yue You clenched her teeth, her only thought now being to give Qin Yun a good beating.

Qin Yun curled his lips. "I’m beat. I need to take a bath, sleep, and then leave this hellhole to return to my wife!"

He knew Yue You wouldn’t dare make a move.

Yang Shiyue walked over and tugged at Yue You, seemingly sending her a whispered message.

Yue You took a deep breath and said, "Qin Yun, if you don’t defeat me, you’ll never leave the Dark Moon Wasteland!"

Qin Yun laughed. "Save the threats! As long as I find the way out, I can leave!"

"Do you think the silver coffin lid will stay open forever? Only I can open it!" Yue You sneered. "You can only leave here if you defeat me!"

Qin Yun glanced at Bao Changshou and the others. "Can’t I just leave with my elders?"

Yue You got even cockier. "If you don’t fight me, I swear you’ll all be stuck here forever!"

Jian Shitian and the others started sweating—they didn’t want to stay in the Dark Moon Wasteland forever.

Seeing Qin Yun’s face fall, Yue You felt even more triumphant.

"You’re threatening me!" Qin Yun said angrily.

"Too bad! Your only option is to fight me!" Yue You smirked. "You’re still wet behind the ears!"

Qin Yun thought for a moment. "If I win, what do I get?"

Yue You immediately replied, "I won’t give you anything else! Beating me only gets you out of the Dark Moon Wasteland!"

Qin Yun didn’t want to fight Yue You because she undoubtedly possessed a strong Immortal Body. Even if she suppressed her energy to the late Spirit Martial Stage, her mind and body were still just as strong.

Even the Martial King wouldn’t find it easy to defeat Yue You!

"Your body is strong, your mental energy is formidable, and you’ve mastered countless techniques. There’s no way I can win!" Qin Yun said. "This is a waste of time! Fine, I’ll just let you beat me up. Just let the sect leader and the others leave afterward."

Qin Yun stepped onto the arena, sighed in resignation. "Go ahead, hit me! I won’t resist—I know I can’t win anyway."

Yue You pondered and realized that even with her power sealed, the fight would still be unfair.

"How about this? I’ll only use ten moves, and I won’t use mental energy. If you can last those ten moves without losing, you win!" Yue You proposed.

Qin Yun considered it and nodded. "Deal!"

A spark of glee flashed in Yue You’s eyes.

Yang Shiyue and Xiao Xuanqin also stepped off the arena, praying Qin Yun wouldn’t get too badly hurt in this fight.

"Ten moves, huh? I can definitely hold out!" Qin Yun grinned.

"Don’t get cocky!" Yue You closed her eyes and began sealing her power.

She intended to seal her cultivation at the Late-stage Lingwu Realm.

Even with her power sealed, her Immortal Body’s strength was certain to defeat Qin Yun within ten moves.

Bao Changshou’s heart sank, because even he couldn’t withstand Yue You’s ten moves—the power gap was just too huge!

Jian Shitian whispered, "Lao Bao, Qin Yun’s strength has improved greatly, becoming much stronger. He must’ve gotten pointers from an Immortal. Think he can last?"

Bao Changshou shook his head. "Dunno. Should be fine."

Soon, Yue You finished sealing her power.

At this moment, Qin Yun started second-guessing himself.

Because after Yue You restricted her cultivation, her raw physical power alone sufficed.

"You do the honors—call it," Yue You said after setting up the barrier.

Qin Yun thought for a moment, then shouted, "Begin!"

The moment he called it, white-hot pain exploded in his chest—Yue You had already struck.

He hastily activated the Piercing Mystic Art, channeling it throughout his body.

As a result, Yue You phased straight through him.

"One move!" Qin Yun’s gut twisted.

Yue You’s palm strike just now had been terrifying—no surprise, she was an Immortal.

"I’m screwed. This woman’s physical strength could wreck even a Half-Immortal. I underestimated her!" Qin Yun had still lowballed Yue You.

"That seems like a Divine Art? Quite impressive. Let’s see how many times you can use it!" Yue You sneered before charging again, striking at Qin Yun with another palm.

Qin Yun frantically cranked up the Piercing Mystic Art.

Though Yue You’s palm struck his body, it might as well have slapped a ghost.

Qin Yun quickly retreated, ceasing the activation of his Divine Art.

Using the Piercing Mystic Art against such overwhelming force sucked him dry.

He had no idea how many more times he could endure it!

Yue You’s eyes dripped with mockery as she sneered, "Qin Yun, just one clean shot from me, and you’ll regret it!"

Qin Yun knew Yue You wouldn’t kill him, but she would definitely leave him injured.

Thus, every time Yue You attacked, Qin Yun spammed the Piercing Mystic Art.

Now, Yue You had unleashed her seventh strike!

After activating the Piercing Mystic Art once more, Qin Yun felt running on fumes, barely standing thanks to his Immortal-Demon Physique.

His dan energy was entirely exhausted!

"Game over!" Yue You smirked triumphantly, swiftly closing in and rocketing a slap across Qin Yun’s face.

The slap cracked like a whip!

Qin Yun was knocked flying, his handsome face swollen and red, which made Yang Shiyue's heart ache slightly.

But there was little she could do, as she knew Yue You's hatred for Qin Yun.

Qin Yun was struck so hard that blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, his head spinning.

"Who do you think you are, acting tough in my turf? You're asking for a beating!" Yue You walked over, grabbed Qin Yun, and laid another stinging slap across his face.

After being sent sprawling, Qin Yun landed on the ground and painfully hauled himself up.

"Pah!" Qin Yun spat out a mouthful of blood and grinned. "Is that all you've got?"

"Stay down!"

Yue You gritted her teeth, lunged forward, and struck Qin Yun's chest with a palm strike, intending to shatter his heart.

Boom!

When Qin Yun was hit, a dark energy burst forth from his body, his skin splitting and bleeding—a horrifying spectacle.

He was sent flying and crashed onto the ground!

Yue You's subordinates all cheered loudly.

"Know your place!" Yue You looked thoroughly pleased with herself.

However, just as she was feeling triumphant, Qin Yun painfully dragged himself upright.

"I didn't lose!" Qin Yun let out a bloody laugh.

Yue You clenched her fists, her fists trembling with the urge to strike again, but she held back.

"Just pounding you was satisfaction enough!" Yue You snorted, then withdrew the barrier.

At that moment, the injured Qin Yun finally collapsed, unconscious!

......

Qin Yun was just completely worn out and fell asleep.

When he woke up, he found himself in a pool filled with milky immortal waters.

Yang Shiyue was by the poolside, though she still wore her mask.

"Xiao Yun, Yue You is just like that. Don't take it personally!" Yang Shiyue sighed softly.

"That unreasonable woman! She hates my past life, yet she takes it out on me now!" Qin Yun was clearly displeased at the thought.

"For my sake, don’t hold a grudge against her in the future!" Yang Shiyue said. "She just can't let go of that grudge. Luckily, she still listens to me—otherwise, she would’ve definitely killed you!"

At that moment, Yue You, with her long silver hair, stepped into the chamber. As soon as she stepped in, she removed her mask.

When Qin Yun saw Yue You’s face, he went completely still, stunned!

Yue You was stunningly beautiful, though her complexion was pale and frosty, giving her the air of an ice-cold fairy.

That face—Qin Yun recognized it instantly. It looked exactly like Yang Shiyue’s!

"She’s my sister!" Yang Shiyue said with a soft laugh.

"No, *you're* the little sister!" Yue You quickly retorted. "I was born first!"

"I was first! You're the younger one!" Yang Shiyue called out lightly.

Qin Yun realized Yang Shiyue's past life and Yue You had been twin sisters!

"Qin Yun, I only let you heal here for my sister's sake. Once your injuries are better, get the hell out!" Yue You said coldly before putting her mask back on.

Boom! Booom! BOOM!

Suddenly, the ground shook violently!

Accompanied by terrifying rumbling, cracks instantly spread across the walls of the hidden chamber.

"Is that bastard Xie Ying behind this? He won—why’s he still harassing me?" Yue You roared furiously. "I swear I'll kill him!"

Fuming, Yue You stormed out of the chamber, with Yang Shiyue following closely behind.

Qin Yun also tensed, guessing Xie Ying had noticed Dark Moon’s disappearance and had come here in a fit of rage.

"Xiao Yun, you're still injured. Heal first!" Ling Yuner urged.

The shaking worsened, the cracks widening as if the entire place could collapse at any moment.

Seeing this, Qin Yun could no longer stay still.

Limping heavily, he hurried out of the chamber.

Boom!

The moment he stepped out, a blast of energy slammed into him.

"Such overwhelming power, and it carries a dreadful demonic aura!" Ling Yuner cried in alarm. "This can’t be Xie Ying!"

The place where Qin Yun stood was reduced to rubble, and he found himself buried under debris.

Rumble!

Stunned, his vision swimming, Qin Yun barely clung to consciousness.

Ling Yuner shouted, "The castle’s mountain is collapsing! Xiao Yun, stay strong!"

The attacker wasn't Xie Ying!

Yet, in the Dark Moon Wastes, only Xie Ying possessed such power.

After a brief moment of unconsciousness, Qin Yun stirred groggily and struggled to crawl out of the wreckage.

He had no idea how long he had been out, but when he emerged, the sky burned red, and massive meteorites rained down from above.
