The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"really."

"This is what they call being too clever for your own good."

Seeing this, the people on the periphery who had just been full of indignation instantly revealed a cold smile.

In fact, some people had already guessed it.

After all, if those weeds and shrubs can survive, why can't this big tree?

They wanted to strike at the heart of the enemy's lair, but instead they were sending lambs to the slaughter.

The group crossed their arms, waiting to see how the Starry Sky Club would suffer heavy losses and return defeated like them.

"really."

In mid-air, watching the leaves surge upwards, Lu Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

How could they not have thought of something that everyone else could think of?

Buzz!

With a humming sound, a golden bell suddenly appeared before it was enveloped by huge, blade-like leaves.

Nine dragons coiled around it, making it as solid as a rock.

The enormous golden bell in mid-air opened up, directly blasting the leaves away.

However, since he couldn't move while using the Golden Bell Shield, Lu Yuan, who could no longer use the Explosive Step, would fall from mid-air.

In fact, before the fall even began, Lu Yuan had already deactivated the Golden Bell Shield.

Several meters away, he reached out and touched the star fruit at the top of the tree.

Dragon-Capturing Gloves!

As the leaves were flung aside, the star fruit at the top was fully exposed.

The Dragon-Catching Gloves in Lu Yuan's hand at this moment are not the ones he obtained during the initial team entry test, but rather an advanced version improved by Lu Diaolong based on his modified blueprints!

Not only is the suction force greatly enhanced, but it can also generate a reverse repulsive force, making it far more than just "capturing dragons and controlling cranes".

However, there is no need for repulsion at this time. Driven by true qi, the suction force is like a giant hand, grabbing the Star Fruit.

"stand up!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Yuan let out a low roar.

With a snap, the Star Fruit was successfully plucked. Then, under the suction, it fell directly into Lu Yuan's hand.

"This is!"

"He got it!"

Those who were just waiting to see a good show on the outside changed their expressions drastically when they saw this.

At the same time, their gazes suddenly changed, and they couldn't help but be moved.

Whoosh!

With the Star Fruit taken away, the oasis beasts instantly went berserk, causing not only the large tree to shake violently, but also the vegetation on the ground to go wild.

In order to exert all its strength, it even vomited up the martial artists that had just been devoured, as if regurgitating them.

Of course, they were all already lifeless.

"Got it!"

"retreat!"

With a loud shout, Liu Wuji and the others immediately ran out of the oasis.

Despite the obstacles, Oasis's main target is now Lu Yuan.

Besides the big tree lashing out at Lu Yuan, the bushes and weeds on the ground were also stretching wildly, trying to reach Lu Yuan in mid-air.

Incredibly, the entire oasis that had been lying on the desert was lifted up and closed in the middle, like a giant clam.

At this moment, Lu Yuan was in the middle of the closing position.

"That's amazing..."

Those on the periphery stared wide-eyed, realizing that the oasis beast hadn't used its full strength when it attacked them earlier.

If the oasis beasts had acted this way from the beginning, they would probably have become corpses like their companions long ago.

"Eat me? Don't even think about it!"

Facing the oasis that was about to close in, Lu Yuan's expression turned serious, and he let out a loud shout.

Boom!

The next moment, accompanied by a roar, a burst of energy erupted, and a huge red sun emerged from behind.

Boom!

At the same time, a solar wind with a temperature of tens of thousands of degrees Celsius erupted, like a flood bursting its banks, rushing wildly in all directions.

Aww~!

The moment the solar wind touched them, the wildly swirling grass and trees instantly withered and turned yellow. At the same time, a piercing scream rang out, causing everyone's eardrums to ache.

"efficient!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan's face lit up with joy.

Although I don't know the details of this oasis beast, since its main body is vegetation, it should be afraid of fire.

The solar wind is perfectly countered!

Overjoyed, Lu Yuan didn't delay and immediately used his Explosive Step again to continue upwards.

In the blink of an eye, it had already exceeded the area enclosed by the oasis. If it wanted to bite him again, the oasis would have to be able to fly.

Of course, it's not impossible; after all, it's a strange beast, and anything can happen.

Lu Yuan dared not delay, and immediately used his acupuncture skills to accelerate away into the distance.

"..."

At this moment, Liu Wuji and the others, who had just left the oasis, frowned as they saw Lu Yuan about to disappear into the horizon.

This kid, he's not really going to run away and try to keep it all for himself, is he?

Without giving it much thought, the group quickly gave chase.

"Quick, after them!"

Meanwhile, those who were originally on the outskirts of the oasis also immediately gave chase.

The moment they saw Lu Yuan obtain the Star Fruit, they were already tempted and wanted to seize it by force.

After all, it was much easier for Lu Yuan to seize the Star Fruit from the Oasis Beasts and forcibly take it from a martial artist of the same level.

"Where did you go?"

"Damn it! That kid runs way too fast!"

Unfortunately, with their strength, they only chased for a short while before losing track of Lu Yuan, and even Liu Wuji and his group.

Although annoyed, there was nothing he could do but vent his frustration at the sand before giving up.

"Where did you go...?"

Not only those people, but half an hour later, Liu Wuji and the others also gradually lost sight of Lu Yuan.

Their brows furrowed, and their unease grew stronger.

There was no other way but to lower my head and keep moving forward.

"That bastard must be..."

Just as his unease reached its peak, before Feng Qi could finish his sentence, he suddenly saw a figure standing in front of him.

Everyone rushed over, and there stood Lu Yuan.

Great.

Seeing that Lu Yuan hadn't abandoned them and left alone, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Qi snorted and turned his head away from Lu Yuan.

"Why did it take you so long to arrive?"

Even without using his mental powers, he could guess what these people were thinking just now, Lu Yuan asked with a smile.

Liu Wuji blushed instantly, and even Dugu Feiying felt somewhat embarrassed.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Too lazy to tease them anymore, Lu Yuan took out a Star Fruit from his spatial ring and said in a deep voice.

"How do we divide it?"

Looking at the Star Fruit, everyone's expressions became serious.

There was only one Star Fruit, but there were seven of them!

to whom?

If divided equally, this wouldn't be a real fruit. Unless it's made into a potion, cutting it open directly would cause the cosmic energy it contains to rapidly dissipate.

Alternatively, you can put it away temporarily and deal with it after leaving the secret realm.

But the problem is, the secret realm is dangerous, and there's still almost a month to go. Who knows what might happen?

It would be incredibly foolish not to immediately transform such a treasure into real power.

"How about we draw lots?"

After a moment of silence, Zhu Qiaoqian tentatively said something.

Seeing the displeased looks directed at her, she quickly covered her mouth.

Deciding such a serious matter by drawing lots is far too frivolous.

But it must be said that Zhu Qiaoqian also became certain of one thing.

"I agree to give it to one of us."

Dugu Feiying's expression was serious as he stated his position directly.

This Star Fruit is not distributed equally, but is given directly to one person!

"I agree!"

"agree."

"agree."

Following that, others expressed the same opinion.

So the question then becomes, who should it be given to?

Who should receive the seven of them?
