Chapter 1391: 1391
On the Comet Corridor .
Along with the passage of time, Chen Xi’s group pressed forward step by step, and when Nie Xingzhen’s group arrived on the 2,635th meteor, Chen Xi’s group had already arrived on the 2,633rd meteor .
There was merely a single meteor between their groups!
The originally confrontational atmosphere became strained to the limit at this moment .
Clang!
At this moment, Zhongli Luo who had an extremely gloomy expression was unable to restrain himself any longer, and he swiftly turned around before he pointed his dual blades at Chen Xi’s group from afar!
These blades were black and white respectively . A cold glow shot out from them while immortal light rose up from within, and they emanated a horrifying glow .
Chen Xi suddenly returned to his senses from dealing with the restrictions when he sensed this, and his gaze swept over coldly .
At practically the exact same moment, Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang’s eyes turned cold, and their bodies surged with battle intent while they prepared for battle .
“Junior Brother Zhongli!” Nie Xingzhen’s heart tightened when he noticed this, and he berated Zhongli Luo . “Don’t act rashly!”
His voice was like a thunderclap that caused Gu Yueru to return to her senses as well . When she turned around and saw this scene, her originally pale beautiful face instantly turned ghastly pale .
She’d never expected that Chen Xi’s group would actually catch up to them so quickly, and it caused her to suffer a huge blow to her confidence . Especially when she noticed the confrontational atmosphere between their groups, her heart fell into chaos before she spoke instinctively . “You must not make a move against them . ”
When he saw this, Chen Xi glanced at them while seeming to be lost in thought, and then he immediately said with a smile, “Senior Brother Nie, Senior Sister Gu, the restrictions at the end of this Comet Corridor are getting more and more formidable, so why don’t we work together? Even if we compete with each other, it shouldn’t be too late to get to it after we pass through this place . ”
As soon as these words were spoken, it greatly exceeded the expectations of everyone . It wasn’t just Nie Xingzhen’s group, even Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang frowned as they were unable to figure out why Chen Xi would suddenly raise such a suggestion .
“Hmph! Who needs to work together with all of you? Stop daydreaming!” Before the others could speak, Zhongli Luo had already grunted coldly and refused .
Chen Xi smiled . From the beginning until the end, he didn’t spare Zhongli Luo a single glance, and he’d always been looking at Nie Xingzhen and Gu Yueru .
This sort of practically disregarding attitude had completely infuriated Zhongli Luo . He’d already accumulated a bellyful of rage and being provoked like this by Chen Xi caused him to instantly erupt . His dual blades crisscrossed together before he suddenly slashed out with a ‘乂’ shaped sword light .
Swish!
This attack was sharp and murderous . It tore through space and emanated a sharp howl that sounded like cloth being torn apart as it shot down at Chen Xi’s head .
No one had expected that Zhongli Luo would actually attack abruptly, and when Nie Xingzhen and Gu Yueru intended to stop him, it was already too late .
Bang!
The Violetsky Immortal Sword in Chen Xi’s hand swung out with an extraordinary and otherworldly aura, and it easily dispersed Zhongli Luo’s attack .
How formidable!
Nie Xingzhen and Gu Yueru’s pupils constricted because Chen Xi’s attack seemed to be extremely ordinary, yet he’d deal with Zhongli Luo’s lethal strike in such a casual manner . So it obviously showed how formidable Chen Xi’s combat strength was .
They were existences that were respectively at the 1st and 2nd position on the Heavenstar Saint Rankings, so they were naturally able to discern that even thought it was merely a simple attack, the gap between them was obvious!
Zhongli Luo was slightly stunned as well . He’d expected that it would be impossible for this strike of his to injure Chen Xi, yet he never imagined that Chen Xi would actually deal with his attack so easily .
“You’re courting death!”
“You actually dared to attack!?”
Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang were infuriated as well . Originally, because they were all from the same academy, Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang didn’t intend to form a bad relationship with them, yet they’d never expected that Zhongli Luo would actually not know what’s good for him .
However, before they could attack, they were stopped by Chen Xi who shook his head and said, “Calm yourselves . ”
As he spoke, he invited Nie Xingzhen once more . “I presume all of you’re clearly aware . This is the depths of the Comet Corridor, and it isn’t just filled with the attacks from the comets, even the strength of the restrictions is increasing . If we get into a battle at this moment, then probably none of us will be able to pass through this place . ”
He paused for a moment and continued . “After all, we’ve been travelling here without stop for seven days and seven nights, and our physical strengths have been greatly exhausted . Under such circumstances, the right choice is to work together, and not fight each other, right?”
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused Nie Xingzhen and Gu Yueru to ponder deeply without end .
It was just then, Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang revealed contemplative expressions as well . Because it was just as Chen Xi said, they’d been fighting without stop for seven days and seven nights, so even if their bodies were made of iron, they were almost at their limits .
Under such circumstances, it was indeed unsuitable to allow an intense conflict to erupt . Otherwise, they might really be forced to stop here and be unable to obtain the acknowledgement of the Dao Emperor’s inheritance .
“Junior Brother Chen Xi, don’t worry, we won’t make a move against all of you . ” In the end, it was Gu Yueru that spoke and decided . However, the words she spoke next exceeded Chen Xi’s expectations . “However, since we’re competing with each other, then it’s better for us to act on our own . ”
The meaning behind her words was that they wouldn’t fight, yet they wouldn’t cooperate with Chen Xi’s group either .
Ling Qingwu and Ye Tang were naturally pleased with such a decision because they were clearly aware that with Chen Xi leading them forward, then would absolutely be able to surpass Nie Xingzhen’s group .
Nie Xingzhen glanced at Gu Yueru . He wanted to say something, yet when he saw her firm expression, he could only give up .
