Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chapter 549: Another Three Arrives, Leng Ningyu’s Odd Expression

“This guy’s such a bastard!

Sword Daoist was so infuriated that he gritted hard on his teeth as he watched Chu Kuangren collect all the treasures in the entire Spiritual Qi Leyline.

It felt like déjà vu.

He felt that ever since he met Chu Kuangren, he was constrained at every turn and was always defeated.

First, it began with Chu Kuangren defeating him in one move on multiple occasions. After that, the White Spiritual Divine Fruit that he had so painstakingly searched for was snatched by Chu Kuangren.

Now, the Spiritual Qi Leyline that was supposed to be divided among him and the few other outlawed sky-prides had been taken by Chu Kuangren as well.

“The extent of his combat strength is unfathomable. I don’t understand how he has such insane combat strength.”

Jiu Yan stared forlornly at Chu Kuangren. In his mind, scenes of Chu Kuangren crushing him in battle flashed vividly...

Chu Kuangren had overpowered a wild beast with raw strength, possessed more sophisticated swordsmanship skills than Sword Daoist, and even had enigmatic runic skills and endless Emperor Techniques...

Chu Kuangren’s every performance in battle had exceeded their understanding of a sky-pride’s supposed capability.

They even began to suspect if his combat strength was already comparable with a Sovereign.

Although outlawed sky-prides were powerful, most of them could only match the prowess of Boundary Emperors. There was still quite a big gap between them and the Sovereigns.

They had never heard of any outlawed sky-pride who could compete with Sovereigns.

Each sky-pride at the scene could only watch helplessly as Chu Kuangren freely looted all sorts of treasures from the Spiritual Qi Leyline.

This feeling was torturing for them.

Right at this moment.

Several flashes of light glided past the sky. Incredibly ruthless energies emanated from their bodies, and they did not seem any weaker than the few other outlawed sky-prides here.

This group of people consisted of two men and one woman.

One of the men did not have a top on, which exposed his muscular upper body. His tanned skin emitted a faint glow of gold and iron-like color. He had two horns on his head and a nose ring piercing through his nostrils. Judging by his appearance, he may look blunt, but the vicious ferocious qi permeating his body was in no way weaker than Jiu Yan’s.

The other person wore a long black robe, with a pale, almost sickly face. The aura he gave out had an indescribable peculiarity to it.

At a closer look, this young man’s eyes were very enchanting, just like a pair of amethyst. Occasionally, mysterious runic energies glinted across those eyes.

The last member of the group was a gorgeous woman with waist-length luscious black hair. Her skin was smooth as silk, and she had a slender figure. There was indescribable cold energy radiating from her. However, it was not the kind of coldness that made her unapproachable. It was the kind of indifference that made one feel undeserving of her attention.

“It’s them. Niu Dali from the Archaic Bull Demon Tribe, Zi Wuji from the Runic Lands, and Leng Ningyu, the Maiden Sage of Seven Emotions Sect!”

“Three more outlawed sky-prides. I think we’re in for a treat.”

“These three people’s powers are by no means weaker than Sword Daoist and company. Especially Zi Wuji, his techniques are extremely bizarre, always managing to strike fear in people’s hearts.”

The sky-prides at the scene were astonished by the arrival of these three outlawed sky-prides.

The three newcomers seemed pretty puzzled by what they were seeing here as well.

What was this that they were seeing?

An incredibly fine-looking young man was in the midst of collecting all the Spiritual Qi Leyline’s treasures, while the rest of the sky-prides were merely watching from the sidelines?!

This included Sword Daoist and the few other outlawed sky-prides too.

The more they looked at it, the stranger this sight seemed.

What was going on?

Were these sky-prides not interested in the Spiritual Qi Leyline’s treasures at all?

“Hey, you with the nine heads, what’s happening here?”

Niu Dali of the Demon Bull Tribe glared at Jiu Yan and asked with an interrogative look in his gaze.

The way he spoke to him was rather rude. It looked like this was not the first time he and Jiu Yan had crossed paths. Either way, their relationship seemed pretty rocky.

“Hmph. If you want the answer so badly, why don’t you go and ask that guy there yourself?”

Jiu Yan scoffed back at him, then stared back at Chu Kuangren. There was a spiteful look in his eyes.

Not just him, but the rest of the sky-prides looked at Chu Kuangren the same way too.

Niu Dali may look like an honest person, but he was by no means gullible. He could instantly tell that Chu Kuangren was not just anybody whom they could dispose of easily. The treasures he had may be alluring, but he knew better than to act hastily.

“Ningyu, you’re here.”

Seeing that Leng Ningyu had arrived, Sword Daoist deliberately tidied up his appearance and then stepped forward with a warm smile on his face.

The other sky-prides did not look too surprised when they saw his reaction

The fact that Sword Daoist had a crush on Leng Ningyu and that he was currently pursuing her was not really a secret among the society of sky-prides in Emperor Road.

However, the part that made the least sense to them in this saga was that Leng Ningyu cultivated the Unruffled Emotions Dao, so her emotions were flat most of the time. Not to mention her lack of response toward Sword Daoist’s affections, she might not even understand the concept of love.

Hence, everything that Sword Daoist had done for her was merely one-sided. His unreciprocated love for her would never bear any fruit.

Even so, Sword Daoist remained loyal to his ways, spending all of his time trying to think of ways to gain her attention.

Sword Daoist had become what many would call a simp — a fool caught in unrequited love.

“Yes. Hello, Brother Sword Daoist.”

Leng Ningyu replied flatly after taking a glance at Sword Daoist.

Sword Daoist was not surprised at all. It was obvious he had been through similarly awkward many instances. Facing Leng Ningyu, his ego was non-existent.

However, immediately after that, he seemed to notice something amiss, and his facial expression changed abruptly.

He realized that Leng Ningyu — who had never reacted toward men, or more accurately, toward anyone — had been fixing her gaze on Chu Kuangren ever since she arrived.

On top of that, there was an inexplicable affection hidden within her gaze.

“Ningyu?”

“Yes? Do you have anything you’d like to ask me, Brother Sword Daoist?”

Leng Ningyu looked at Sword Daoist, her gaze returning to the usual coldness.

“You know Chu Kuangren?”

“You mean, this Brother who’s currently collecting all the leyline treasures? Yes, indeed I do. He saved my life once.”

Leng Ningyu said calmly before she fixed her gaze onto Chu Kuangren once again, and that indescribable endearment inside her eyes surfaced once more.

Upon seeing that, Sword Daoist’s expression became gloomy.

Ever since the first time he set eyes on Leng Ningyu, he had been deeply attracted to her gentle temperament. Thus, he began his relentless pursuit of her. Nevertheless, after so many years, he still could not garner any positive outcome. Leng Ningyu still treated him like she would to any other stranger.

Yet now, she seemed to have developed some kind of fondness toward this Chu Kuangren whom she had just met not long ago.

This kind of stark contrast that she had for someone else other than him made the fury inside Sword Daoist’s heart burn even more intensely.

This was the first time he had so much hate for someone.

His nemesis had not only repeatedly humiliated him in public and robbed him of his Opportunities of Fortune, but now, he even wanted to snatch away the one true love of his life?!

At the thought of that, a raging fire of resentment brewed within Sword Daoist’s heart. This feeling was almost driving him insane.

The sky-prides beside them were beginning to sense something amiss too. Their gazes alternated to and fro between Chu Kuangren and Leng Ningyu.

Close to a dozen images of heroes rescuing damsels were playing inside their heads.

However, regardless if he was the hero to her damsel in distress, Leng Ningyu should, by right, not be moved so easily because she cultivated the Unruffled Emotions Dao.

“Is Chu Kuangren’s good looks too much to handle?”

A few of the cultivators stared at Chu Kuangren. The longer they looked at him, the more they concurred that his looks were truly otherworldly.

That gentlemanly demeanor and that handsome face of his mesmerized everyone at the scene.

“This person does have extraordinary looks. I reckon that nine out of ten females who see that pretty face would immediately find themselves bewitched.”

“Rightfully so. No wonder Leng Ningyu is drawn to him. It seems like not even the Unruffled Emotions Dao can resist Chu Kuangren’s charm. This handsome face of his has managed to defy all laws!”

“Tsk tsk. With incredible combat strength, exquisite talent, and such top-quality looks, who could resist?”
