Chapter 110 – The challenge of the heartless Fairy, born with celestial bones
Everyone's eyes were fixed intently on Chen Changsheng.
In response to this situation, Chen Changsheng merely smiled calmly and continued chatting with Gongsun Huaiyu.
Li was currently in seclusion, and what he needed to do was buy him as much time as possible.
The discovery of a new cultivation system wasn't important, because even if they racked their brains, they wouldn't be able to figure out the most crucial aspect of this system.
As long as this secret remained undisclosed, their attention would stay on him.
After a few more casual exchanges, Gongsun Huaiyu turned to Jiang Bufan playfully.
"Holy Lord Jiang, you said the winner of the Dao discussion would receive the Primordial Yellow Mother Gold."
"It's been quite a while now, and no one has challenged me. Shouldn't you give me the prize?"
Jiang Bufan chuckled at Gongsun Huaiyu's words, "The prize naturally goes to the winner."
"But before that, I still need to ask if any other young friends wish to continue the challenge."
As soon as he said this, the many heroes present became intrigued.
The prize might not be within their reach, but exploring Gongsun Huaiyu's cultivation path was also a tremendous opportunity!
However, just as these thoughts emerged, Chen Changsheng's leisurely voice came through.
"Girl, I see some people want to use a war of attrition against you!"
"If anyone dares to challenge you, go all out. If you can't fight anymore, we'll concede."
"No treasure is more important than a person!"
Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Gongsun Huaiyu burst into laughter.
"Understood, sir. I promise to go all out!"
Seeing Gongsun Huaiyu's eager demeanor, many heroes began to hesitate.
Even the Saintess of Zifu was injured; if they went up, they might not die, but they'd certainly be crippled.
To deal with Gongsun Huaiyu, at least someone like the Holy Son of Yaoguang would be needed.
If they didn't act, no one else would dare.
After Chen Changsheng's verbal threat, the Hero's Gathering fell silent.
Seeing this, Jiang Bufan couldn't help but frown, as he hadn't fully grasped Gongsun Huaiyu's cultivation system.
After waiting a while longer and still seeing no challengers, Jiang Bufan had no choice but to announce Gongsun Huaiyu as the winner of the first Dao discussion.
"Since none of you young friends wish to challenge Miss Gongsun, then this Dao discussion..."
"Hold on!"
The long-silent Yao Yingying stood up.
"Holy Lord Jiang, I wish to challenge Mr. Chen."
However, as Yao Yingying stepped forward, the ever-smiling monk Xuanxin also rose.
"This humble monk also wishes to have a Dao discussion with Benefactor Chen."
Seeing the two step forward, a playful glint flashed in Chen Changsheng's eyes.
Since Yao Yingying arrived at the Hero's Gathering, she had been absent-minded.
Clearly, she wasn't interested in the Primordial Yellow Mother Gold, nor in him.
But now she stood up to challenge him, which seemed like she was clearing obstacles for someone else!
As Chen Changsheng pondered the intrigue, Gongsun Huaiyu exclaimed excitedly.
"Interesting, none came before, and now two at once."
"Alright, I'll play with you."
With that, Gongsun Huaiyu prepared to step forward to meet the challenge.
"Pa!"
Chen Changsheng's large hand rested on Gongsun Huaiyu's shoulder.
"Girl, take a break. I'll handle this one."
Gongsun Huaiyu, having just tasted victory, was immediately displeased with Chen Changsheng's suggestion.
"Sir, I'm fine."
"Besides, you can't hog all the fun!"
"I'll take on the bald one, you handle Yao Yingying. It's a clear division of labor."
Hearing Gongsun Huaiyu's protest, Chen Changsheng chuckled and patted her head.
"Girl, you still have much to learn."
"Sometimes, things beyond the realm are also important."
With that, Chen Changsheng walked straight towards the monk Xuanxin.
Meanwhile, the Holy Son of Yaoguang, who had been quietly drinking, set down his cup and walked to within ten steps of Yao Yingying.
Seeing this, the astute observers immediately understood the key.
No wonder the formidable Holy Son of Yaoguang hadn't acted; he was in league with Chen Changsheng.
Witnessing the powerful alliance of Chen Changsheng and Fuyao, Ba Tulu, who was devouring spiritual fruits, rolled his eyes.
These people are so cunning. Luckily, I didn't act rashly, or I'd have been besieged by the two of them.
...
Facing the elegant Holy Son of Yaoguang, Yao Yingying said calmly, "It's an honor to have a Dao discussion with the most mysterious hero of the Central Court."
"Hehehe!"
"Miss Yao is too modest. The reputation of the Heartless Heavenly Book from Wuhen Pavilion is well-known."
"To witness the supreme Dao of the Heartless Fairy is my honor."
With that, Fuyao glanced at the expressionless master of Wuhen Pavilion above.
He had heard some rumors about the Heartless Fairy and the monk Xuanxin.
Since he had promised to help Chen Changsheng clear obstacles, he wouldn't let irrelevant people interfere with him.
"By the way, how does the Fairy wish to compete?"
"I've heard the Holy Son of Yaoguang was born with an immortal bone, and with the Da Luo Heavenly Immortal Art of Yaoguang Sacred Ground, it's incredibly powerful. May I witness it?"
Upon hearing this, Fuyao smiled, "No problem, please."
As he spoke, a gentle light emanated from Fuyao's brow.
Seeing Fuyao's actions, Yao Yingying knew this was an invitation to battle in the sea of consciousness.
This method of combat was extremely dangerous, as the sea of consciousness was the most vulnerable part of a person.
If something went wrong, one could become an idiot at best, or die and have their Dao vanish at worst.
Fuyao's willingness to use his sea of consciousness as the main battlefield showed his confidence in his cultivation.
"What courage!"
Praising him, Yao Yingying then closed her eyes, and an extreme coldness surged into everyone's hearts.
A vague version of herself emerged from Yao Yingying's brow, but this Yao Yingying appeared more heartless, more like the Heartless Fairy from the heavens.
However, as "Yao Yingying" headed towards Fuyao's sea of consciousness, she glanced at Gongsun Huaiyu.
Just that one glance made Gongsun Huaiyu feel as if her soul was frozen.
"There are countless Dao paths in the world. The path you walk is strong, but it's not your own."
"Fighting me with someone else's path, you won't win."
With that, "Yao Yingying" entered Fuyao's brow.
The light vanished, and the two stood silently in place.
"Gulp!"
Gongsun Huaiyu instinctively swallowed, utterly amazed by Yao Yingying's small display of power.
She had thought that with her new cultivation system, she would rarely encounter peers who could crush her.
But now it seemed she had been too naive.
