Chapter 665: 0666 One Against Two! (Second Update)

Ye Qiu was forced to retreat by Ji Lingchen, while Mu Cannan was close to the Great Emperor level corpse, reaching for the ancient book.

Whoosh...

An invisible ripple emanated from the Great Emperor level corpse. Just as the ancient book was about to be seized by Mu Cannan, within arm’s reach, his body jolted as if electrocuted, and he sharply retreated with a look of shock on his face.

Seeing Mu Cannan fail to obtain the book, Ji Lingchen immediately abandoned the idea of attacking Ye Qiu and turned to fly towards the Great Emperor level corpse. If Ye Qiu couldn’t have it, he would not allow Mu Cannan to have it either.

Swish!

Ji Lingchen likewise approached the Great Emperor level corpse to pick up the ancient book.

However, before he could reach out, he immediately withdrew to the side, sensing an unusual aura emitted by the Great Emperor level corpse, as if it were a warning that even in death, the mighty one would not tolerate trespassers.

This was the dignity of an Emperor Level power, which could not be violated by the weaker even long after death.

Just like that, the opportunity that should have been a competition among three for a Great Emperor level chance became one where no one dared to advance any further.

The three eyed each other warily, each standing on one side of the Emperor Level powerhouse, waiting for the right moment to act.

Both Mu Cannan and Ji Lingchen’s gazes were mostly fixed on Ye Qiu, as both felt that he was an aberration.

Especially Ji Lingchen, who had just engaged Ye Qiu with his Fierce Sun Battle Technique. Their struggle seemed to give Ji Lingchen the upper hand, forcing Ye Qiu to continuously retreat. Still, Ji Lingchen knew that Ye Qiu was only defending and had not used any powerful moves against him, indicating that he must be hiding something.

"Hiding true strength, eh... but when have I ever used all my strength?" Ji Lingchen was not afraid. In the ancient lands, he, Ji Lingchen, dared to call himself the foremost; he certainly wouldn’t fear an unknown, and at most, he had just a slight wariness of Ye Qiu.

Mu Cannan, on the other hand, saw Ye Qiu differently. Being unharmed under Ji Lingchen’s Fierce Sun Battle Technique was enough to show that this man was no simple character. He took no chances.

Facing two of the top young prodigies, Ye Qiu felt quite overwhelmed. Each of these two would be difficult to deal with on their own.

What he feared most was the two of them joining forces against him, robbing him of this chance.

"Gentlemen, the Great Emperor level opportunity is right before our eyes, but none of us can breach the aura surrounding that body, let alone seize this chance. How about this: we join forces to break that aura. As for who gets the opportunity, it will depend on our respective strengths," Ye Qiu slowly suggested.

"You want to join forces with us two?" Ji Lingchen’s indifferent words carried a trace of disdain.

Mu Cannan also glanced at Ye Qiu skeptically, his words making him somewhat scoff.

Ji Lingchen chuckled softly, "I, Ji Lingchen, don’t need to join with anyone to seize a Great Emperor level opportunity. Whoever blocks me, I shall kill them!"

Ye Qiu’s heart went cold. Ji Lingchen was supremely confident and had no thoughts of joining forces, which actually relieved Ye Qiu. He had said that to test whether Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan would band together against him.

However, Ye Qiu had relaxed too soon. Ji Lingchen glanced at Mu Cannan, then added, "Mu Cannan, this person wants to snatch the Great Emperor level opportunity from the two of us. How about we join forces to eliminate him first?"

Huh?

A gleam flashed in Mu Cannan’s eyes as he became somewhat persuaded by Ji Lingchen’s suggestion.

"That would be for the best. A nobody daring to contend with the two great ancient families does not deserve such!" Mu Cannan declared boldly.

This is bad!

Ye Qiu’s heart stirred as he felt two murderous intents abruptly locking onto him.

Swoosh, swoosh!

Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan attacked from both sides, striking in unison.

"The joined forces of Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan are targeting the masked man, they’re trying to eliminate a competitor!" The onlookers were shocked; it was the first time they had witnessed such a scene where two prodigies teamed up.

"These two are shameless, teaming up like this!" Jin Shanshun was indignant on behalf of Ye Qiu. With two prodigies striking together, who among the younger generation could stand against them?

Brother Ye is in danger!

Xiang Da, Li Ren, Mo Ye, Zhan Xiao, and others were also stunned by the scene. They had never expected the strongest two prodigies to make such a move. Although somewhat underhanded, it would undoubtedly allow them to quickly eliminate a competitor.

"Haha, this guy is as good as dead!" Ji Chuan laughed boisterously, feeling a rush of relief. He looked forward to seeing Ye Qiu beaten down by Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan, giving him the chance to kick him while down, avenging the past humiliation of being thrown to the ground by Ye Qiu.

Mu Canshou’s eyes also gleamed with joy. No matter how formidable Ye Qiu was, he couldn’t withstand the combined assault of the two. He sneered inwardly, anticipating Ye Qiu being beaten half to death.

With the proximity of two powerful auras, Ye Qiu sensed the intense killing intent from both sides; the pair were set on eliminating him first.

The very thing Ye Qiu had least wanted to happen had come to pass.

"Since that’s the case, what’s to stop me from battling you both!" he declared.

His eyes shimmering fiercely, Ye Qiu performed one hand gesture for Yin and another for Yang, transforming the dynamic duality into Tai Chi.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

His aura exploded repeatedly, integrating the power of black flames into the Tai Chi, enveloping Ye Qiu in a smooth energy field. He combined the attacks of Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan, and with a tug, the amassed force detonated beside them.

The formidable energy shattered everything in its path, damaging a segment of the staircase along with it.

The body of the Great Emperor level figure trembled slightly, seeming to shake with the upheaval of the energy, and the aura of the mighty being on him dissipated significantly with the blast.

Tai Chi!

Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan stared fixedly at Ye Qiu’s hands, immediately recognizing the technique he had used to deflect their attack and counter it; it was Tai Chi.

Both Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan had some experience with Tai Chi and had quite a good comprehension of it. However, it was the first time they realized Tai Chi could be this formidable compared to what Ye Qiu had demonstrated.

"The essence of Tai Chi..." Ji Lingchen frowned. When it came to Tai Chi, even he had not grasped its essence. Tai Chi was too profound; most ancient clans’ understanding of this boxing art was limited. Reaching a high level of mastery was incredibly difficult and required a waste of ample time, unlike the more powerful and straightforward boxing arts of their Ji Clan.

"Mu Cannan, it seems we need to take this seriously, or we might really be defeated by this boxing technique!" Ji Lingchen spoke lightly.

Mu Cannan nodded repeatedly in agreement. Ye Qiu was more fearsome than he imagined, having comprehended Tai Chi to such an extent from what was considered a mundane art by their ancient land it was almost abnormal.

If the two couldn’t overcome Ye Qiu even when joined together, they would surely become the greatest joke in the ancient lands!

"Kill!"

In a sudden moment, both Ji Lingchen and Mu Cannan turned three times more serious, their expressions finally filled with real gravity.
