Unusual Fate Records

Chapter 244, Section 035: Lan Lu Hu

Wei Zheng silently observed the young man.

Last time, he was sitting in the car, so I didn't have a chance to observe him properly. This time, it was a real meeting.

The young man was quite mature, no longer resembling a drawn blade, yet possessing a simple and unpretentious air. Even just standing there meditating, he resembled a cheetah coiled on an old pine tree, motionless until it moved with lightning speed.

He was hailed as the leading figure of the new generation of Fate Masters, a genius with countless titles and renown, but in the end he betrayed the entire clan.

His magnanimity and courage were unmatched, even though his reason seemed childish—it was for his girlfriend.

Wei Zheng asked himself, if it were Xu Hong who died, he couldn't bring himself to fight against the entire clan for his wife, because there was simply no chance of winning.

Although they had long since disregarded life and death, the ability to control fate was considered against the natural order, and few who did so met a good end. Everyone accepted that it was already a blessing if someone could collect their body when they died.

I guess I'll have to take this outstanding talent's head off today.

【All Rivers Flow into the Sea】is powerful, but it can't intimidate them. Without gathering all the rivers, this decree cannot be released on its own; only under the stimulation of 【The Cuckoo's Cry of Blood】 will this breathtaking scene occur.

Jin Ziyue had already put away the edict.

[All Rivers Flow into the Sea] Like a fleeting moment, as Jin Ziyue put away the container, the blue patterns gradually subsided, and it shrank back into the three-legged golden toad cauldron to be nurtured.

The rescued [Cuckoo's Cry] managed to escape, but its strength had greatly diminished, posing no threat to either side and reduced to a mere clown.

"What are you waiting for? Let's get started," Chu Pingqiu urged Wei Zheng impatiently.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's life force began to fluctuate.

Seeing this, Wei Zheng also used his own life-giving technique, [Survival of the Blade], and his whole body exuded the fierce aura of the nameless ancient sword.

Xu Hong silently moved back, and with the [Thigh Flesh Regeneration] buff, immediately activated the healing field.

Zhang Xixi's fire-dispelling spell was ready to be unleashed, and the [Blazing Flames] amplified the fire effect, causing the temperature around her to rise sharply.

The peerless loli Feng Qingqing has a towering figure. Even standing behind the crowd, he can't hide his strong muscles and two incongruous braids. He is taciturn and activates the [Seen by All] command to transmit the scene's images to Du Biao and Asong, who are not present.

Zhang Rang, the Thunder Leg, rubbed his hands excitedly. Even though he couldn't speak, his hand gestures moved rapidly, like forming hand seals. However, no one in the Fate Master camp understood the hand gestures. The Fate Word "Swift Meteor" on his body flickered erratically, as if it might disappear from the spot at any moment.

Just as the fluctuations of their decrees spread, an invisible tiger's roar suddenly swept across from the opposite side. All beasts fell silent before the tiger, and the vicissitudes and weight of struggling on the brink of death in war made the Destiny Masters' hearts tremble.

All the spreading pronouncements were suppressed, as if they had suddenly gone silent.

"【Tiger Silent Incense】!" Wei Zheng finally recognized this iron-blooded destiny.

Historically, this inscription appeared once, held by a renowned frontier general who, with a force of a few hundred men, routed the most elite foreign cavalry with supernatural abilities, penetrated deep into the heart of the Otherworld to take the enemy general's head, and once marched back to reinforce the capital to slay a treacherous minister. The holder spent his life on the battlefield, protecting the country and receiving titles, ultimately reaching the height of "one man forming an army, causing ten thousand to flee," becoming a legend in ancient warfare.

The reigning emperor at the time even personally inscribed the words: "Before the fierce tiger, all beasts fall silent."

As time passed and centuries went by, this prophecy reappeared, this time residing in a woman.

Across from them, a woman with burgundy hair, carrying a cello tape, strolled over with a wide, uninhibited smile: "Want to fight? Count me in?"

"Hmph, so it was you that day." Chu Pingqiu snorted coldly. If we were to talk about who suffered the most in the last operation, besides the two constables with large burn areas, it would be Chu Pingqiu. [Victory is assured] Once it fails, it will regress, and the hard-earned success rate will drop back, causing his fate to languish for quite some time.

"Ugh! Ugh ugh ugh!" Zhang Rang's mouth was pressed tightly against his, but that couldn't stop him from wanting to shout. His hands moved quickly, forming hand seals, and finally, he cupped his hands together, fingertips touching his head, making a big heart shape...

The woman in front of him was stunningly beautiful, especially with her mature and sophisticated aura, exquisite figure, and devilish smile. Even playboys who frequented nightclubs rarely saw such a face.

"Get out of the way. We just want to get back to [Hundred Rivers Converge at the Sea]. Don't be ungrateful." Wei Zheng's expression was stern, and a black jade pendant the color of deer bone appeared on his right thumb.

A dark aura lingered around his fingertips. The Emperor's Decree [Enjoying a Prosperous Era] was activated, and a majestic aura that countered [Tiger's Silent Incense] was like rolling thunder, forcefully suppressing the effect of [Tiger's Silent Incense].

"Boom!"

The oppressive aura of the Emperor's decree clashed with that of [Tiger Silent Incense]. Even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse; ultimately, [Gongfeng Shengshi], with its superior grade, prevailed. The six Fate Masters also discovered that their decrees could be used again.

Chen Ruolan was slightly taken aback. She didn't understand how the Fate Master had forced the power within her to stop, but it was clear that the other party had learned from their mistakes last time and had found a way to deal with it.

But the woman showed no fear; in fact, her fighting spirit seemed to intensify.

"Move aside? The word 'yield' doesn't exist in my dictionary." She pursed her red lips, took a long stride forward, untied the cello backpack strapped to her back, and held it in front of her.

"In that case, let's all come at once."

Wei Zheng's face darkened, and he shouted to the people around him, "Go!"

All the Commanders set out together.

Zhang Xixi chanted the fire-dispelling spell rapidly, and clusters of fireballs behind her spread out like a peacock's tail feathers, lined up from left to right, and shot into the sky.

"Heavenly Fire Meteor!" Zhang Xixi changed her usual straightforward bombardment method, using the amplification of [Blazing Flames] to change the direction of the flames.

Meanwhile, the others also swooped down at high speed.

Chu Pingqiu wore white gloves, silver beams of light flying from his fingertips like silkworms; Wei Zheng's greatsword dragged on the ground, his arms holding the sword, ready to strike at any moment; while Zhang Rang, known for his agility, was already in the lead, rushing several steps ahead of the others, his legs as nimble as wheels, more eager and focused than usual.

"When did Zhang Rang become so fast?" Xu Hong was stunned. This speed was almost double what it used to be.

Facing the menacing group, Chen Ruolan showed no fear.

She calmly untied the cello's bag, revealing a black metal tubular spout at the top, resembling a cello. The shoulder strap was still wrapped around her body. She simply pointed the headstock of the cello at the crowd, striking a pose like someone holding a Gatling gun, a malicious smile playing on her lips.
