Steel is my body, and fire is my blood. I have gone through over a thousand battlefields, and have never been defeated. I will abandon all emotions and put all my heart into the battle.
Calculate the enemy's information again! The advantages and disadvantages, the environment of the battlefield, the things I can use... my win rate isn't zero!
I still have an advantage over her, because I'm not fighting alone! This is a battlefield, not an arena and I'm not taking part in a duel of one on one. On the battlefield, only the person who is still alive can become the winner!
"Change of tactic, Yun Hai, let's fight together," Yun Que said as she drew her black longbow again.
"Oh, I see." Yun Xi took a deep breath. He had never thought that he would fight against Hua Huo one day.
However, that is how life goes on.
"What are you whispering about?" Hua Huo was in a bad mood.
She didn't know why she felt irritable when she saw the two people whispering shoulder to shoulder. A strand of hair raised on her head and pointed at the two people's direction, as if it was warning its master that something bad was happening. Compared to Yun Que, Hua Huo's battle plan was much simpler and cruder.
I will crush all enemies in front of me! I don't care about their races or identities, because my Sky Flying Bloodline can defeat anyone in front of me!
She had never doubted her power, because she was really strong. She didn't enter the hero rank because she had undone a restriction in her body. Her true fighting capability wasn't something that could be explained with common sense.
The stronger her enemy was, the stronger she would become! Her fighting capability could be enhanced faster than anybody’s imagination when she was in a fight!
Chapter 256: The White Emperor's Power
Compared to Yun Que, Yun Xi really knew how strong his childhood sweetheart was. Even though he had obtained Hua Huo's seed, he had never seen Hua Huo in such high spirits. Her heavy sword had broken, but after reforging it, its aura had become much more frightening.
It looked as if she had been fired up. The flames of her soul were so bright, even her breath was so hot it was burning. Even though Hua Huo was still a few kilometers away from them, Yun Xi and Yun Que could still feel their bodies break out with "gooseflesh". This was how strong Yun Xi's childhood sweetheart, Hua Huo was.
Yun Xi took a deep breath. Naturally, he wouldn't use sword skills like the Flying Swallow Sword in front of Hua Huo, which would undoubtedly expose his true identity. Similarly, he couldn't use any of the weapons he had used in front of Hua Huo, neither the Crane Wings Twin Swords nor the Killing Princess' Demon Sword.
However, if he couldn't use his sword, how could he fight against Hua Huo? The answer was obvious. He could only use the power he obtained in this world, the power from a million brides, the strong fake Power of the Emperor.
Why had he come to this world? Why did he have to fight against his first love?
For saving this world.
For the girls who believed in him and were willing to become a part of his brides.
The girls of the Starwing Knights, the three Water God's High Priestesses, the one million girls who came to the Caelian City and responded to his irrational request... they all trusted him and lent their power to him, making him the real "White Emperor".
While he was here, he gradually came to like this world and the local residents. He wasn't just following the Water God's quests, but actually wanted to do something to help this world. The tenderness this world had offered him, had changed him.
Like what the three High Priestesses had said, I’m responsible for this world. Therefore, I must bring hope to them!
"Since I'm the last hope to save this world, then I will change this world's fate with my own hands. Since this world is longing for reform, then I will bring new changes for them!"
Countless mist gathered together behind Yun Xi from all directions, forming a giant mist door. One ice blade after another emerged from the mist door. They were the Mist Souls who responded to Yun Xi's will and transformed into weapons.
It was Yun Xi's unique Mist Soul Armory!
"Fire, ice blades!"
If Yun Que's attack was a precise, deadly blow, then Yun Xi's attack was a long-range bombardment. Only with the support from the one million brides, Yun Xi could make such a splendid attack. He admitted that his control over his power was inferior to Yun Que’s, however, with the Mist Souls’ help, the "amount" of his attack could be thousands of times stronger than Yun Que's.
Tens of thousands of cold ice blades shot at Hua Huo from Yun Xi's back like a storm.
I can't lock on the target? It doesn't matter, because I can offset this weak point with attack range and frequency!
If anyone wanted to defeat Yun Xi, it would also mean having to defeat his one million brides at the same time!
"What?!" Even Hua Huo hadn't seen such a reckless exaggerated attack.
At first glance, they were just some newbie's imprudent attacks because the speed and direction of all the ice blades weren't very perfect. However, there were tens of thousands of ice blades, which made his weaknesses not a weakness any longer. The overwhelming number had offset all weaknesses, which was really surprising to know that they were made by a human.
Hua Huo couldn't imagine any hero ranked being that could have such a great amount of power like Yun Xi. If a mortal's power was like a stream and a hero ranked person's power was like a river, then the amount of Yun Xi's power was like a ocean, was totally beyond the limit of the hero rank.
This was Yun Xi's special property as this world's White Emperor. The White Emperor would never be alone!
He was an army of one, he was the Mist Soul Army!
The Mist Soul Army was a part of him and he was also an avatar of the Mist Soul Army.
At this hour, he had just learned how to release the true power of the Mist Soul Army, then he showed a frightening power which was even stronger than Hua Huo's.
"Yes, this is it! You are strong, you are stronger than my greatest expectation and imagination!" Yun Que knew it better than anyone.
She had known that this scumbag was the strongest being in this world since a long time ago. After all, he had one million brides' power!
"Even if your enemy is strong, you don't need to worry about anyone as long as you can release your true power. Don't worry, I won't let any enemy get close to you, I will protect you at all costs, because you are the unique emperor!"
Yun Xi sighed.
I have to fight against my childhood sweetheart. Is this my fate after putting on the White Emperor Mask?
"I understand. After all, it's a battle of my own choosing."
Chapter 257: Fierce Fighting
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
Transparent ice blades had covered half of the battlefield as more and more ice blades kept shooting out of the mist door behind Yun Xi.
Hua Huo brandished the reforged broken sword, blocking all the ice blades easily. Countless ice fragments exploded on the battlefield, creating a Freezing Field with an extremely cold temperature.
"Bang!"
Every time when Hua Huo blocked the ice blades, which also meant that she couldn't block other attacks at the same time. Yun Que would always shoot an Arrow of Bloodthirsty Demon Hound to her. At the same time, her Mist Soul would also appear beside Hua Huo and launch an assassination attack.
Danger! Danger! Danger! For the first time, Hua Huo's attack was suppressed.
If it wasn't because the broken sword could emit a devastating light beam at the critical moment, Hua Huo probably couldn't hold on one minute.
The person who caused her dilemma was Yun Xi. He had to attack his childhood sweetheart for victory.
Based on his understanding about Hua Huo and with the help of his White Emperor Mask, Yun Xi chose the best tactic to stop Hua Huo.
He had Hua Huo's Seed in his body, naturally, he understood that once Hua Huo got close to him, the batt
le would be finished. Him and Yun Que couldn’t win against Hua Huo in close combat.
Once Hua Huo used her true power, even if they were as strong as a dragon, they would still be killed by her in one hit. Therefore, they must stop Hua Huo to dictate the tempo of the battle.
It was impossible to win against Hua Huo with a sword! In Yun Xi's mind, the only sword skill that was a match for Hua Huo's Sky Flying Sword was Yun Hai’s Sword Master sword skill: Yun Hai's Quadrant Sword.
Only a godlike sword skill can compete with another godlike sword skill!
However, Yun Xi hadn't learned Yun Hai's Quadrant Skill, therefore, the tactic he used now was the only method that he could use to defeat Hua Huo.
He would cooperate with Yun Que, stopping Hua Huo approaching him, so that she wouldn't have any chance to use her sword skill.
His incredible energy from the one million brides was the only way to beat back Hua Huo from a distance!
Therefore, he opened the mist door and let the ice blades fly.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
No matter how many ice blades Hua Huo had broken, there would always be more and more ice blades shooting at her. Undoubtedly, Yun Xi had the strongest range attack ability in the entire Water God's world.
In Yun Que's eyes, Yun Xi's behavior was like throwing a mountainous counterweight on the balance of this battle.
For the first time, Yun Que saw the light of winning this battle.
It was also the first experience to Hua Huo to be forced into a disadvantage. It was quite incredible since she could always beat down her enemies with great ease.
In Hua Huo's heart, this silver masked man was the first person who had the same great talent like her.
However, why don't I feel hostility from him?
Why?
We are enemies. We should fight at full tilt, but why can't I feel killing intention from his attacks?
Compared to him, the archer in red was more competent. I can feel his sharp, undisguised killing intent coming from the bottom of his heart.
"Are you... looking down on me? Do you think I don't deserve your full attack?" A strange smile appeared on the corner of Hua Huo's mouth.
I had never thought that I would be shown mercy by my enemy someday.
I'm underestimated!
Little Xi, if you know it, will you laugh at me?
It looks like I should be more serious.
"No, too bad..." Looking at Hua Huo's eyes, Yun Xi immediately realized that something was wrong.
Hua Huo rarely showed such a smile on her face. She was a sunny girl and was always friendly to everyone.
In Yun Xi's memory, she only showed such a smile a few times when she was extremely angry.
The most vivid memory in Yun Xi's mind was when his sword skill teacher tried to teach him something in her room, Hua Huo suddenly broke into the room. At that time, she showed a similar smile on her face.
Holding the broken sword, which was covered with bloody lights now, Hua Huo moved a step forward.
"Boom!" Bright lights exploded from the broken sword and formed a round of blood colored shield around her body.
Yun Xi's ice blades hit on the shield and exploded, but caused no damage to the shield.
"She is coming!" Yun Que looked at Hua Huo through her Water God's Mask. In her eyes, Hua Huo's aura was like a giant light column, connecting heaven and earth.
"One!" Hua Huo took a step forward, striding over a hundred metres.
It wasn't like the "Quicksilver Motion" Yun Xi had learned. Hua Huo wasn't simply increasing her speed, but actually strode over a hundred metres in a step.
Stop Hua Huo by using range attacks - Yun Xi's tactic wasn't wrong, but was too naive.
Sky Flying Sword meant the will of hovering in the sky freely. It was impossible for the ice blades to stop Hua Huo!
"Shuffle! Shuffle! Shuffle!" Yun Que marked Hua Huo's path in her vision. After all, Hua Huo wasn't trying to hide her intention at all.
She was going in a straight line, the simplest route! And at the destination of her route, it was the core of the Mist Soul Army, their Emperor, Yun Xi!
"Shuffle! Shuffle! Shuffle!" Yun Que shot sixteen arrows. Since she had known Hua Huo's route, it wasn’t possible for the arrows to miss.
"Two!" Hua Huo didn't even look at the sixteen arrows and let them expode on the blood colored shield. She walked the second step toward Yun Xi with a determined look.
Compared to the first step, the second step crossed a longer distance, and the transparent halo under her feet was bigger.
Accelerating! Accelerating! Accelerating!
It was a sword skill Yun Xi didn't know and couldn't understand. Even as Hua Huo was surrounded by an army of one million, she still looked as if she was walking in the back yard of her house.
In front of her Sky Flying Sword, all beings are equal.
Once she used the Sky Flying Sword, she would never retreat!
"I didn’t imagine that it was possible!" Yun Que ground her teeth. Her body suddenly emitted a similar aura like Hua Huo, because she had used the secret skill from her Water God's Mask: Multiple Competences Enhancing!
Chapter 258: At the End of Fantasy
Yun Que's blood flowed in her body like surging wind waves.
Unlike Yun Xi, her Water God's Mask could only let her control her blood, but it didn't mean she was weak.
Life itself contained the strongest potential.
Even if the most common people could burst with incredible strength when they were facing a life-or-death crisis or their emotions were stimulated.
Such as, in order to save her child from a fallen house, a mother could lift a stone that was several times heavier than her body weight.
Or, when a man is chased by a beast, his speed could be beyond human physical limits.
In the final analysis, they just dug out their final potential, so that they could do that. However, mortals couldn't control this power. The people who temporarily obtained this power all died of heart failure after breaking out of the crisis.
They were overdrawing their life force and releasing it all at one instant.
No pain, no gain, this is an immutable rule of the universe.
Yun Que's Multiple Competences Enhancing could increase her speed, strength and explosive force, greatly raising her fighting capacity in an instant.
An ordinary person’s heart rate was sixty beats per minute, however, Yun Que's heart rate had increased to two hundred beats per minute and was still rising.
"Not enough... be faster..." Even though the Water God's Mask could automatically adjust her physiological state, her face still turned red due to her fast and strong heartbeat.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" As the blood flowing in her vessels, Yun Que's heartbeat was becoming louder and clearer.
The heart was the core of a human body. Naturally, her heart rate was so fast, that her blood would also flow at a high speed.
Yun Que's visual field was gradually covered by red color. Her eyes had become bloodshot.
"Three!" Hua Huo took the third step. Her speed and impact force were becoming stronger and stronger as her footsteps echoed between the sky and the heaven.
Whatever it was Yun Xi's ice blade, Yun Que's Trace Arrow, or the Dark Elf Mist Soul's Multiple Assassination, none of them could stop Hua Huo from stepping forward.
"Since my demon hound can't stop you, I will stop you with my own blood!" Yun Que put her finger tip on the bowstring. Just like Hua Huo used her blood to make her broken sword become an artifact, Yun Que's blood wasn't as strong as hers, but it could also enhance her Black Moon Bow.
This was the only thing Yun Que could do that her Mist Soul couldn't do, because her Mist Soul didn't have blood in her body.
Staining with Yun Que's blood, the Black Moon Bow emitted a bright, florid light. An arrow formed by blood automatically appeared on the bowstring and loaded on the Black Moon Bow, Yun Que's artifact.
This time, it wasn'
t a fierce demon hound but was a strange hummingbird with blood-red wings.
The hummingbird couldn't lock on its target automatically, but its penetrating force had been greatly reinforced to the limit that Yun Que could reach. This was the second demon arrow Yun Que had learned - the Arrow of Blood Hummingbird.
Focusing all attack forces on one point. The hummingbird's blood-red wings could increase its speed to an incredible degree in the blink of an eye.
