Chapter 437: The Dou Huang Expert in the Mountains Nalan Yanran!
As the two Dou Huang lackeys stared in confusion, the space around them suddenly began to distort.
At that moment, Wu Tian's eyes flickered sharply, and the previously twisted space quickly returned to normal.
"Looks like we can't head straight to the finish line just yet."
His words puzzled everyone, but they didn't question him further.
Because in the next instant, they felt their feet become as slippery as if they had been greased, lifting them into the air and swiftly carrying them away into the distance…
Strangely enough, this controlled movement felt rather pleasant!
The two Dou Huang lackeys couldn't help but think was this what it felt like to have heaven's favor?
If they could truly cling to this powerful figure, perhaps their futures would…
Deep within the Tianmu Mountain Range…
The clash of blades echoed through the misty valley, accompanied by waves of energy explosions.
A battle was taking place below for none other than a chance to reach the Tian Shan Blood Pool!
A clear and melodious female voice rang out through the thick mist, its cold yet enchanting tone captivating to the ear.
One could tell immediately that the speaker was a beauty, but in a place like this, no one would step forward as a hero to save her.
Here, everyone was an enemy.
With only ten spots available, even a breathtaking beauty would be discarded when it came to the crucial moment.
Some might act as affectionate senior brothers and sisters outside, but when push came to shove, a blade would pierce their back without hesitation.
For these geniuses, securing a breakthrough opportunity was paramount especially for those at the peak of Dou Huang, who were desperate for the chance to advance to Dou Zong.
Opportunities like these were rare and far more valuable than any romantic attachment.
And it wasn't just men who were ruthless women could abandon their "senior brothers" just as easily.
This was the harsh reality of the Dou Qi Continent and a principle that every true powerhouse must understand.
You never knew when someone by your side would suddenly stab you in the back.
Fortunately, Wu Tian never had to worry about such betrayals his two Dou Huang lackeys were already his slaves.
No matter their identities or hidden secrets, their fate was sealed.
Through the mist, Wu Tian and his group saw a small clearing below, where four figures were locked in battle four men against one woman!
Their auras were formidable, clearly among the top combatants within the mountain range. All four men seemed evenly matched in strength.
Among them, a scar faced man in a yellow robe sat lazily on a tree branch, leaning against the trunk as he smirked down at the scene.
"Hurry it up… now's not the time to waste time."
Hearing his words, the men on the ground nodded quickly it was obvious that he was their leader.
Their matching insignias revealed they all belonged to the same faction.
Meanwhile, the three men surrounding the woman wore sinister, lecherous grins.
"Come on, little lady, summon your Spirit Fox already. If not… hehe~ your pretty little legs might not stay so perfect for long. We're not strangers to crushing flowers under our hands…"
Hearing these words, the woman's delicate brows furrowed.
Her longsword shimmered with cold light as she vigilantly eyed the three men, her gaze filled with resilience a trait that only made her all the more captivating.
If they weren't in this situation, these three men would have dropped their weapons and groveled at her feet.
But now?
They couldn't hold back anymore.
This woman was an absolute beauty the perfect kind of junior sister. She was simply divine!
Her light blue robe wrapped around her delicate, curvaceous figure, accentuating every perfect contour.
Her long, silky black hair was loosely tied with a thin azure ribbon, cascading down her slender waist.
And that face…
Not only was it breathtaking, but it also looked incredibly familiar.
Because this woman was none other than Nalan Yanran, who had left Cai Lin City with Yun Yun!
Though it had only been a few months since she departed, Nalan Yanran had changed significantly.
Gone was the naive and inexperienced girl she now exuded a powerful aura of strength and charm, her unwavering gaze radiating resilience.
It was almost unimaginable that the once sheltered young lady had grown into such a steadfast warrior.
Perched on Nalan Yanran's shoulder was a small, white fox.
Its fur was pristine and silky, making it irresistibly adorable the perfect "weapon" for capturing a woman's heart.
At this moment, the fox's bright eyes darted around nervously, its tiny body trembling in response to the eerie aura exuding from the three men.
A soft, frightened whimper escaped its lips.
But instead of making others fear it, its cuteness only made people want to reach out and pet it.
Feeling the little fox's fear, Nalan Yanran gently stroked it before slowly raising her head.
Her ice cold gaze locked onto the three men as she tightened her grip on her sword.
An icy voice escaped her lips.
"Just the likes of you? Keep dreaming."
"Hehehe~ We love stubborn women like you! The more you resist, the more fun it is!"
"Haha~ Little lady, with your strength at Five Star Dou Huang, don't even think about escaping us. Just hand over the Spirit Fox and serve us well, and maybe we'll let you go."
The men's gazes shamelessly scanned Nalan Yanran's body, their tongues licking their lips hungrily.
Hearing their vile words, Nalan Yanran's face grew even colder.
Each of these men was a Four Star Dou Huang.
If it were one on one, she was confident she could kill any of them quickly.
But three of them…?
And with a fourth observing from above?
This was going to be difficult.
Still, fear never crossed her mind she had slain far too many enemies on her journey here.
"The Earth Spirit Gate truly is a breeding ground for trash."
Her words instantly darkened their expressions.
Without hesitation, they moved in a triangular formation, surrounding her.
"Earth Prison!"
A surge of deep yellow battle qi exploded from their bodies, causing the ground to tremble.
A massive earth prison suddenly emerged, sealing Nalan Yanran inside!
"A mere trick!"
A cold glint flashed across her beautiful eyes as she twirled her longsword.
A gust of ferocious wind whirled around her slender figure.
With a sharp exhale, she whispered,
"Wind's Extreme Falling Kill!"
This was the same Dou Technique Yun Yun had once used now completely mastered by Nalan Yanran.
Without hesitation, she thrust her sword toward the earthen walls, ready to strike!
