Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

He stood quietly in the gale, and after a long while, he slowly walked over and patted You Yang's shoulder hard.

"She will understand."

After struggling for a long time, Grey Yang finally managed to squeeze out just a few dry words.

In fact, he knew better than anyone else what You Yang was struggling with at that moment.

After all, not long ago, he himself had planned to do something to You Yang, to trap You Yang forever in a false world without pain. In essence, what was the difference between this and the Queen of Hearts' actions?

At that time, it was Lilith's appearance that finally broke through You Yang's confusion like a ray of light, pulling him out of that gentle trap.

Faced with Gray Youyang's somewhat clumsy attempt at comfort, Youyang did not respond. Instead, he lowered his head slightly, hugged Lilith tighter, and fell into deep silence once more.

……

Meanwhile, in the real world.

On the battlefield of the Divine Flame Emperor Uliana, which was like a purgatory!

Hot sweat dripped down Chen Yuexi's pale face like beads from a broken string, instantly evaporating into wisps of white smoke as it hit the ground.

As the [Divine Flame Emperor Uria] is unsealed and exists in the mortal world for an increasingly longer period, the temperature here has risen to an extremely terrifying level.

The air was thick with the suffocating smell of sulfur. Chen Yuexi was breathing heavily, her throat so dry it felt like it was about to crack.

She gritted her teeth and placed her trembling fingers on the deck of cards on the duel disk, feeling that her vision was completely blurred by the distorted, scorching heat and mist.

She wasn't in very good health to begin with, and she had already exhausted her own strength.

The burden of fighting this phantom demon was too great at this moment. She felt as if all the power in her body had been drained by a bottomless pit, and waves of weakness washed over her.

At this moment, she was almost exhausted, not even having the strength to draw a single card from her deck.

The Divine Flame Emperor Uria looked down at the teetering Chen Yuexi from his high position, and a cruel and eerie sneer appeared on his huge demonic face.

He knew that he was about to win.

The arrogant human girl in front of him was on the verge of exhaustion and was about to collapse.

This is their insurmountable natural advantage as high-dimensional elves when facing lower-level humans!

Although, facing Chen Yuexi's double cotton candy absolute defense blockade on the field, which was like an impenetrable wall, he was indeed unable to force his way through.

it's fine.

After all, the human body has its limits.

How could the spiritual power of a mere mortal possibly compare to that of a lofty demon?

As long as this girl attempts to stall for time through this defensive tactic, her victory is already a predetermined and inevitable outcome!

He even started idly fantasizing in his mind about where to go next for some more fun after he had devoured all the humans here.

Just then, Chen Yuexi suddenly bit her tongue!

A sharp, stinging pain shot straight to her mind, and bright red blood slowly flowed from the corner of her mouth, carrying a hint of rusty, sweet taste.

Stimulated by the intense pain, her mind, which had been nearly scattered by the heat, finally managed to regain a sliver of clarity.

Yes, she was indeed stalling for time.

But she did this not out of despair, waiting for You Yang or anyone else to come to her rescue.

She has delayed until now, enduring this pain that feels like it's drying out her soul, all so that she can win this duel with her own hands!

She had held back many times before, whether it was her brother or You Yang.

This time, she absolutely cannot repeat the same mistake!

"My turn!"

Chen Yuexi shouted at the top of her lungs, gathering all her remaining strength into the fingertips of her right hand.

"Draw a card!"

This is the last one!

Deck, answer my call!

Swish-!

She exerted her strength and decisively drew the top card from the deck!

When Chen Yuexi finally saw the five cards she had collected, her tense nerves finally relaxed completely, and she let out a long-suppressed breath.

Finally... this torment that felt like purgatory can end.

Om-!

An extremely sacred and dazzling golden pentagram mark suddenly lit up in the center of her forehead without warning!

"The last card I just drew was—"

Chen Yuexi raised the card high, which exuded an ancient and powerful aura, and her voice resonated across the empty battlefield.

"【The Sealed Exodia】!"

Upon hearing this name, the previously mocking Divine Flame Emperor Uriah's pupils suddenly contracted: "What?!"

"It's actually the legendary [Sealed Exodia]?!"

Even He, one of the Three Illusionary Demons, had definitely heard of the name of this ancient god of destruction, and was even wary of it.

He never imagined that such an ultimate monster, capable of breaking the rules, would be sleeping in the hands of this seemingly insignificant human girl!

Chen Yuexi simultaneously revealed the five cards in her hand, lining them up in a row!

"Furthermore, at this moment, I have perfectly gathered the [Sealed One's Right Wrist], the [Sealed One's Left Wrist], the [Sealed One's Right Foot], and the [Sealed One's Left Foot]!"

"Based on the special effect of [Sealed Exodia]!"

"At the very moment when all five cards are collected!"

"I will overcome all obstacles and achieve absolute victory in this duel!"

Roar! Break free from your shackles!

Chen Yuexi pointed at the phantom demon in front of her and gave the final command!

"Descend here!"

"The Dark Sorcerer! Exodia!"

Rumble—!

A massive golden pentagram array suddenly lit up in front of the Divine Flame Emperor Uria without warning!

Immediately afterwards, the sound of heavy metal chains clanging came from the depths of the formation, as if some extremely terrifying ancient being was forcibly breaking the seal.

The next second, a pair of giant golden hands, as big as mountains, suddenly emerged from the pentagram and, with lightning speed, grabbed the long and huge serpentine body of the Divine Flame Emperor Uriah!

Chapter 321 Seven Millennium Artifacts and the Underworld Tablet! The Door Is About to Open!

As Uria struggled in utter terror, those giant hands violently lifted Him high into the air.

With a deafening crash of breaking chains, Exodia's imposing and imposing figure completely broke free from the array.

He didn't use any fancy beam attacks, but instead violently hurled the Divine Flame Emperor Uriah like a rag doll, sending him crashing heavily onto the solid duel barrier!

boom!

The barrier shook violently.

However, it seemed that simply throwing herself like that was not enough to vent Chen Yuexi's frustration and anger from being scorched.

Exodia charged forward again, swinging his golden iron fist, which was as heavy as a meteorite, and pounded it relentlessly and fiercely on the body of the God Flame Emperor Uria like a storm!

boom! boom! boom!

The continuous, dull thuds of impact echoed wildly across the battlefield.

Uria, one of the three great demons, was beaten until he let out a series of pitiful groans and screams, until his huge body could no longer maintain its form under the brutal beating and completely collapsed and dissipated into the air!

The enormous phantom demon eventually transformed into a card shimmering with crimson light, which flew into Chen Yuexi's sweaty hand like a shooting star.

"Huh...huh..."

Seeing that the once invincible enemy had finally been completely defeated, the tension in Chen Yuexi's mind snapped.

Her legs gave way, and she could no longer support the heavy burden on her body, collapsing helplessly onto the charred ground.

In mid-air, the imposing figure of the Dark Archmage Exodia slowly dissipated into a shower of golden light.

Warm and sacred golden light gently poured down from the sky, like a miracle, pacifying and extinguishing the raging infernal flames on the surrounding ground.

"Yue Xi!"

A series of anxious and panicked calls echoed in her ears, and Chen Yuexi wearily lifted her eyelids.

She desperately wanted to respond, but her parched lips parted, yet no sound came out.

As her vision was swallowed by the overwhelming darkness, she completely lost consciousness and fainted.

At the critical moment, a figure shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan was fast enough that he could reach out and catch Chen Yuexi in his arms before her frail body crashed to the ground.

Looking at the pale-faced girl in his arms, Chen Yuan's fingers trembled uncontrollably.

He carefully extended his fingertips toward Chen Yuexi's nose until he could clearly feel her faint yet warm breath brushing against his fingertips.

His tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and he let out a heavy sigh of relief.

With soft footsteps, Vivian dragged her weary body forward.

A vibrant, emerald-green light slowly emanated from her fair palm, gently enveloping Chen Yuexi.

"Although its healing power is not as good as Luna's, it's better than nothing in this situation."

Chen Yuan looked up, his eyes filled with gratitude, and whispered, "Thank you."

"Hehe, don't be so polite. If we really want to say something, we should all be the ones thanking her."

In response to Chen Yuan's thanks, Vivian's lips curled into a playful yet slightly pale smile.

In fact, her condition was also quite bad at the moment. Her originally gorgeous dress was already tattered in the battle, and her fair skin was covered with wounds of varying depths and bleeding streaks.
