I tried to kill the heroines of destiny, but they ended up chasing after me.

As the dragon born of the man in red, the fire dragon naturally sensed the man's unease and abnormality. It looked at the man in red and its eyes revealed a certain emotional expression!

Suddenly, it turned its gaze to Huang Quan and the power of that emptiness, and roared, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in its eyes.

While the man in red was distracted, it pounced swiftly toward the Yellow Springs without the slightest hesitation.

Roar!

It roared again with all its might, but the majesty it once possessed was almost gone, and the fiery scales on its body seemed to proclaim its decay, slowly withering away until they vanished...

Seeing the fire dragon rushing towards him, Huang Quan's expression showed admiration. He understood that the fire dragon wanted to use its body to block his killing move in order to protect the man in red.

Such an action deserves his respect.

But despite his admiration, his attacks will not change in the slightest because of this.

Huang Quan swung his sword again, and the tip pointed in the direction the fire dragon was moving.

In an instant, the spiritual power on the outline of the moon and the spiritual power of the greatsword resonated under Huang Quan's control. Then, a terrifying energy suddenly began to gather rapidly from the center of the outline.

Huang Quan remained expressionless and uttered a single word.

"out!"

As soon as the word was spoken, the outline of the moonlight burst forth with an intense moonlight, so dazzling that it was like an alternative sun in the sky, cold yet extremely eye-catching.

boom!

From that central part, light also gathered at the same time, and a silver beam immediately shot out.

Almost instantly, the fire dragon was in trouble. It seemed that it had nowhere to hide under the beam of light... The power was so strong that a faint look of desolation flashed in its eyes.

As the beam of light approached, it did not resist, but merely turned its head to glance at the man in red.

From the moment it was born, it never imagined that its first battle would be fought so fiercely. Perhaps it was a joke! Perhaps it wasn't strong enough! Perhaps neither it nor the other was strong enough! But at least it had demonstrated its value.

"Next time, I hope you can be even stronger!"

With a whoosh, the beam of light pierced directly through the fire dragon's body.

"stop!"

A shrill scream erupted from an empty space, a frantic roar.

That was the roar of the man in red. Sensing the fire dragon's last gaze, the man in red jolted awake and instantly regained his senses.

The man in red was well aware of how difficult it was for this spiritual fire dragon to manifest. Otherwise, even with his exceptional talent and a bit of luck during his enlightenment, this fire dragon would never have been able to emerge.

But for the man in red, it was more than just that; he regarded it as his second life. So when the fire dragon dissipated, his grief and sorrow were probably only felt by himself.

If he were to conjure it again now, he would need a deeper understanding of fire.

How could he not feel miserable?

puff!

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, his face turned pale again, and his entire body seemed to have lost all strength... The disappearance of the fire dragon was also a great blow to his mind, a blow that struck at his very core...

Besides, a hint of hatred was slowly creeping into his heart... but he didn't hate Huang Quan; he hated himself for being distracted at such a crucial moment...

But now, although the beam of light was blocked by the fire dragon and resisted some of its power, it did not disappear completely. Carrying its remaining power, it continued to shoot towards the man in red.

The man in red gritted his teeth, his anger burning... As the beam of light drew ever closer, his resentment was overwhelming...

Almost at that moment, he lost all options. He knew that if he took this blow, he would definitely be seriously injured and lose all ability to fight.

He was puzzled as to why Huang Quan, whose cultivation level was not far behind his own a few years ago, had now surpassed him by so much in strength.

The beam of light was reflected in his eyes, as if it were eternal darkness, filling him with a sense of despair!

"why?"

"There's no reason for it!"

"But...I...I...I'm powerless now...I've lost!"

The moment those three words appeared in his mind, his eyes changed, suddenly becoming empty, and his aura dropped to its lowest point.

Looking at the red-clad man who had lost his will to fight, Huang Quan felt a pang of emotion, but the battle was over.

All of this, though a long story, happened in just a short time.

The beam of light continued to shoot towards the man in red...

……

The final result is self-evident, as the outcome is already quite clear.

Perhaps to prevent the man in red from revealing his identity, Huang Quan chose to knock him unconscious, and it would take him a while to wake up.

This battle... has finally come to an end.

“Losing is normal, but this masked guy is really strong!” Yan Sheng said, his eyes twitching slightly.

"He is indeed very strong. It would be impossible for an ordinary Nirvana Realm cultivator to defeat him," Zhu Yongri said softly.

Zhang Shen didn't speak, but judging from his expression, he seemed to agree with what the other two had said.

Those from the four clans below the stage fell silent upon seeing the man in red defeated. They were not fools, but they could see that Huang Quan was a powerful person.

"Tsk tsk! Being able to defeat Zhang Jian isn't necessarily just luck!" a member of the Zhutian clan murmured.

“Yes! With that kind of strength, even if Zhang Jian didn’t make the bet, he probably wouldn’t get the better of him!” said a member of the Yan Sheng clan.

Only some members of the Emperor Sword Clan were at a loss for words.

Just when everyone thought no one else would take the stage, and just when Huang Quan thought the ceremony was about to end, the woman in white, who had an even stronger sense of familiarity with Huang Quan than the man in red, flew from below the stage to the stage like a falling white flower.

In an instant, everyone's attention was drawn back to the event.

"Hmm? Who is she?" Zhang Shen, sitting in the Green Pavilion, suddenly became puzzled.

"Qin'er?!" Dao San, the Dao Ling Clan Chief who had spoken the least, suddenly changed his expression and then frowned.

She had previously told the woman in white not to get involved in the ceremony, but she never expected...

“No! Although Qin’er is sometimes quirky, she would never disobey me for no reason. There must be some reason here…” At this moment, Dao San’s thoughts stirred, and he couldn’t help but look at the platform, and then at Huang Quan, who was wearing a mask.

"Could it be...it's him?" Dao San guessed, a look of surprise on his face.

……

Then look at the stands.

When Huang Quan saw the woman in white step onto the stage, he was filled with a sense of impending trouble.

"Tsk tsk tsk! I just got rid of Xiao Wuqi, and now Xu Tianqin is here. Is fate really trying to kill me?" Huang Quan thought to himself, annoyed.

That's right, the man in red just now was the Ming Shen Sect's top disciple whom Huang Quan had tricked during the Grand Election. However, Huang Quan did not expect that this Ming Shen Sect's top disciple would actually be related to the Yan Sheng Clan, one of the four hidden families.

The woman in white is none other than Xu Tianqin, whom Huang Quan encountered in the Endless Wasteland. There seems to be some emotional entanglement between the two.

He didn't know why Xu Tianqin had become a member of the Dao Ling Clan, nor did he know why Xu Tianqin was here. He was completely baffled by Xu Tianqin's appearance!

However, Huang Quan knew that if Xu Tianqin found out that the person behind the mask was him, the consequences would be unimaginable. That was why he put on the mask.

"Who are you?!" Xu Tianqin stared intently at Huang Quan and asked with a sharp temper.

"Does it matter?" Huang Quan replied, as always, feigning nonchalance.

“Important! I sense a familiar feeling about you,” Xu Tianqin said.

"So what?" Huang Quan retorted, but inside he was in a complete panic.

"Tell me! Are you him?!" Xu Tianqin didn't respond to Huang Quan's question, but instead shouted even more excitedly.

"What do you mean, is it him or not? If you want to fight, then fight!" Huang Quan replied, feigning displeasure.

"You!" Xu Tianqin gritted her teeth.

Until the very end...

"Fine! Since you've said so, I'll play along to the end!" Xu Tianqin's coldness swirled around her, and then, with a flick of her left hand, she shot two extremely sharp embroidery needles directly towards Huang Quan's chest!

However, these two embroidery needles were not ordinary embroidery needles; they contained a trace of Xu Tianqin's spiritual power, indicating that she was indeed going to war with Huang Quan.

However, Huang Quan neither dodged nor evaded. His greatsword shot out at lightning speed, and with just a light swing, the two embroidery needles were blocked in front of him and scattered to the sides.

Seeing the embroidery needle fly away after being knocked down, Xu Tianqin's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said coldly, "Heh! That was just an appetizer. Now, take this!"

Xu Tianqin smiled, and two more embroidery needles appeared in her left hand, which she then shot towards Huang Quan's chest once again.

"Hmm?" Huang Quan looked at the two embroidery needles flying towards him with suspicion. He felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was. So he could only use his greatsword to knock the two embroidery needles to the ground again.

"Hehe!" When Huang Quan knocked the embroidery needle away again, Xu Tianqin's eyes did not change in the slightest because Huang Quan had knocked the embroidery needle away.

Soon after, two more identical embroidery needles appeared in Xu Tianqin's hands.

But before Xu Tianqin could shoot out the reappeared embroidery needle, Huang Quan, sensing something was wrong, appeared like a ghost in the air directly above Xu Tianqin, and slashed his greatsword down fiercely at Xu Tianqin's head.

Xu Tianqin smiled slightly. She remained calm and composed, and with two embroidery needles crossed, she managed to block Huang Quan's attack.

As soon as Huang Quan's feet touched the ground, he immediately used his left hand to support the greatsword, freeing his right hand and making a fist. He then unleashed a powerful punch at Xu Tianqin's stomach, carrying the force of the punch and spiritual energy, seemingly showing no mercy whatsoever.

"Tch!" Xu Tianqin raised an eyebrow, startled. She hadn't had time to dodge backward. Clearly, if she had taken this attack, she would have been seriously injured. However, as the only disciple of Dao San, although she wasn't as strong as Zhang Jian, she wasn't that weak either.

"Gather!" At this critical moment, Xu Tianqin suddenly shouted, and the two embroidery needles she threw out for the first time actually moved as if they were alive, and then strangely stabbed fiercely towards Huang Quan's back.

"What?" Huang Quan exclaimed in surprise upon sensing the approaching attack. Without time to think, he quickly retracted his greatsword, turned around, and swung it again at the two embroidery needles. The two needles were once again deflected by Huang Quan.

"A great opportunity!"

"Ok?"

At this moment, taking advantage of the moment when Huang Quan turned around to block the embroidery needles, Xu Tianqin thrust the two embroidery needles that were originally in his hand into Huang Quan's back again without any hesitation.

The situation turned around in an instant, and it has to be said that Xu Tianqin is indeed quite capable.

boom!

Another ancient greatsword reappeared in Huang Quan's right hand, not the previous one, but another unknown greatsword.

Huang Quan immediately used his sword to block the attack on his back.

"Hmph!" Clearly, Xu Tianqin didn't know where Huang Quan had taken out the greatsword from, but she didn't intend to give Huang Quan any opening to attack. So she jumped back and moved away from Huang Quan's side.

Huang Quan did not continue his attack as before. After all, he was not sure why the embroidery needle had suddenly attacked him. Blindly attacking without knowing the reason would only bring him closer to being blasted off the stage.

In silence, the two stared at each other for a while.
