Chapter 15 The Three-Year Agreement? Please Get Lost.
However, the man in black robes exuded an eerie aura, and Lin Zhou couldn't figure it out even after using his Heavenly Eye of Luck for a long time.
Lin Zhou muttered to himself,
"Forget it, let this old man run wild for a while. He can't escape my grasp anyway."
Right now, there's an even more exciting show waiting to begin!
He refocused his attention on the main stage, a smile playing on his lips, as if he were enjoying the spectacle.
As expected, the draw for the quarterfinals began.
When the elder deacon drew out the list of opponents, it was as if the air in the entire square had been sucked out.
"The quarterfinals, match one! Xiao Qiongshan, Xiao Fan versus Qingyun Peak, Rong Ruoyue!"
boom!
The entire Qingyun Peak Square was like a pot of oil that had been doused with cold water, instantly causing an uproar!
"Holy crap! Am I hallucinating? Xiao Fan talking to Rong Ruoyue?"
"This... isn't this the couple who almost got together three years ago? One a genius, and the other... well, the current dark horse!"
"I've heard that back in Wutan City, Senior Sister Rong tore up the marriage certificate in front of the entire city—it was absolutely clean!"
"Xiao Fan is still being stubborn, saying he's going to make some kind of three-year agreement, but after two years he hasn't said a word and is still stuck in the Body Tempering Realm like a salted fish."
"Tsk tsk, this is going to be interesting! Ex-girlfriend literature has come to life! A fateful showdown, I love it!"
The murmurs and chatter were like a buzzing sound at a market clearance sale, and countless onlookers' gazes swept back and forth between Xiao Fan and Rong Ruoyue like searchlights.
In the corner, Li Mu's old face, which had been dark for half a day, finally softened a little.
He leisurely picked up his teacup, his heart filled with joy.
"You little brat, you tried to jump! Now you've hit a brick wall, haven't you?"
"My disciple Ruoyue is at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining! She's been holding back her Foundation Establishment breakthrough to solidify her foundation!"
"Beating a peasant like you is child's play! Just wait to be carried away!"
In the VIP section, Shi Hao also revealed a playful smile.
On the arena.
Rong Ruoyue wore a light purple dress, her figure graceful, and she still had that arrogant look on her head.
"Xiao Fan, I'm really surprised you managed to get this far."
Her voice was icy, carrying a kind of approving tone.
"However, this ends here. You and I are no longer from the same world."
"Give up. I've hurt your heart, and I don't want to hurt your body anymore."
The entire place fell silent. Everyone craned their necks, waiting to see whether Xiao Fan would fly into a rage or humbly beg for mercy.
Xiao Fan's face showed no extra expression, and he didn't even bother to look at her directly.
Is this woman a regular Buddhist nun?
Where does that confidence come from?
He simply uttered a few words.
"It's definitely not the same world."
Rong Ruoyue's lips were about to curl into a victorious smile.
Xiao Fan's next words, however, instantly froze the expression on her face.
"Because you're too slow."
"you!"
Rong Ruoyue's beautiful face instantly turned bright red, and a surge of anger from feeling severely humiliated rushed straight to the top of her head!
What gives him the right to be so arrogant? He's a piece of trash I kicked away, a pawn destined to be trampled under my feet!
"Fine! Very well! Since you're courting death, I'll grant your wish!"
"Frost Sword Technique!"
Before she finished speaking, Rong Ruoyue drew her longsword and twirled it in an extremely beautiful sword flourish.
In an instant, the temperature of the entire arena seemed to drop to freezing point!
Countless sword shadows flashing with cold light appeared out of thin air, sweeping over Xiao Fan like a blizzard!
The disciples below the stage gasped in surprise.
"Holy crap! Is this the ultimate technique of Qingyun Peak, the 'Frost Sword Art'? The special effects are off the charts!"
"Each sword shadow is as powerful as a full-force attack from a late-stage Qi Refining expert. How can we dodge that? There's nowhere to hide!"
In everyone's eyes, even if Xiao Fan was hiding his true abilities, he was at most at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
That's already pretty impressive, but it's still not enough.
However, faced with this rain of swords, Xiao Fan made a move that made everyone's eyes pop out.
Instead of retreating, he advanced!
His figure moved like a ghost, darting back and forth through the impenetrable rain of swords.
He takes every step perfectly, always managing to avoid the most fatal attacks with the smallest movements.
He didn't look like he was in danger; rather, he looked like he was taking a leisurely stroll in a storm.
"This... how the hell is this possible?!"
Rong Ruoyue was completely dumbfounded.
Her "Frost Sword Technique" is famous for its speed, precision, and coldness; among those of the same level, no one has ever been able to withstand it so easily!
"Is that all you've got?"
Xiao Fan's voice, like the whisper of a devil, suddenly rang in her ear.
"If that's all there is to it, then this farce should come to an end."
"The Heaven-Burning Creation Technique!"
Xiao Fan stopped pretending and laid his cards on the table!
He demonstrated his true cultivation level, which was at the late stage of Qi Refining and infinitely close to the Great Perfection!
boom!
A ball of blue flame suddenly burst forth from his body!
The flames didn't explode at all; instead, they possessed a sacred beauty reminiscent of a blooming lotus.
However, the terrifyingly high temperature it emitted instantly swept away all the cold air on the arena!
For the first time, a noticeable emotion appeared on Sect Master Ling Xiaozhi's usually calm face. He leaned forward slightly, staring intently at the ball of blue flame on the field.
The countless icy sword shadows unleashed by Rong Ruoyue vanished the instant they touched the azure flames, like popsicles meeting a flamethrower. They were evaporated without a trace before they could even make a "sizzle" sound!
"A strange... strange fire?!"
On the viewing platform, Elder Yun Qinghe of Danxiao Peak dropped his teacup on the ground with a "crash," shattering it into pieces.
"This is impossible! This is definitely a strange fire! How could an outer disciple possess something that only exists in legends?!"
For alchemists, a strange fire is an unparalleled treasure that they would beg for even if their ancestors' graves were to emit auspicious smoke.
Everyone in the audience who knew anything about this went crazy and stood up one by one!
Rong Ruoyue was so frightened that her face turned pale. Her sword moves were like children's toys in front of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, completely useless!
The moment she lost her composure, Xiao Fan made his move.
He clearly remembered his master's teachings.
"My disciple, the slap in the face must be resounding! Follow the script exactly! Make sure she remembers it for a lifetime! Not a single line can be wrong!"
Xiao Fan took a deep breath, and the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame within his body surged wildly, condensing into a giant fiery palm in front of him!
The hand was so lifelike that you could see the lines on it clearly!
"This slap will repay you for the humiliation you suffered back then!"
Xiao Fan's eyes turned cold, and his enormous fiery palm, carrying an overwhelming aura, slammed down towards Rong Ruoyue!
He didn't strike her body, but rather the protective aura surrounding her!
"No!"
Rong Ruoyue let out a scream and desperately urged her spiritual power.
However, it was all in vain.
"Snap!"
A crisp cracking sound rang out.
Her protective spiritual energy, which she was so proud of, was more fragile than a paper window in front of that blue fiery hand.
One slap, and it's smashed to pieces!
The violent shockwave sent Rong Ruoyue flying, her hair disheveled, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. She fell awkwardly to the edge of the arena, her face filled with disbelief.
As if he had a built-in megaphone, Xiao Fan turned around according to the script given to him by his master and shouted out that earth-shattering line in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft, but loud enough for the whole audience to hear.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential! You've lost!"
The entire venue was deathly silent.
Everyone was stunned into a daze by this extremely dramatic scene.
The former loser crushed the once-proud woman who had broken off his engagement with him in such a domineering and humiliating way!
This script is fucking thrilling!
Xiao Fan stood with his hands behind his back.
He looked down at Rong Ruoyue, who was slumped on the ground, and continued to deliver the final blow in a voice devoid of any emotion.
"Rong Ruoyue, from now on, we are even."
After saying that, he walked off the stage without looking back.
He left behind a resolute silhouette and a roaring audience.
In the VIP section, Shen Han looked at the composed and calm young man below the stage, and a rare hint of admiration appeared on his usually aloof face.
Rong Ruoyue, slumped on the ground, watched Xiao Fan's departing figure, her eyes filled with regret, resentment, and confusion...
A mix of emotions welled up, and finally, with a "poof," he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Her Daoist heart was shattered.
And the mastermind behind all of this is the one who cooks shit.
Lin Zhou stretched comfortably, feeling refreshed from every pore of his body.
This flavor is so authentic, it's so addictive!

Linzhou almost burst out laughing like a pig on the spot.
"System, you understand me so well! You're practically my mouth double, my confidant!"
"A Nascent Soul Realm trial card? Now my trump card is even stronger! From now on, if anyone dares to mess with my disciple, I'll just slit their skull with a single sword strike!"
