The red-haired man's blade was only half cut off; his face twisted, his eyes seeming ready to shoot fire.
The blonde woman also looked at the sudden bronze cauldron, as if she were in a dream.
"Why don't you keep showing off?"
Just as everyone was stunned and bewildered, a handsome man dressed in black beside the bronze cauldron looked at the red-haired man with a mischievous smile.
This person was Long Chen. At the critical moment, he did nothing except place the Qiankun Cauldron there and passively let the sickle strike.
As a result, the Qiankun Cauldron never disappointed Long Chen. What surprised him was that the sickle only broke its blade but did not turn to dust. Just as he had expected, this scythe was truly extraordinary.
"Die!"
The red-haired man roared, his left hand like lightning lashing at Long Chen. His fingers hooked as he tore through the void, his sharp nails distorting space over a large area.
Although it was just a bare-handed strike, the terrifying power caused the roar of ten thousand paths. The two were extremely close, and as soon as the red-haired man made his move, his sharp fingernails nearly touched Long Chen's throat.
"Hey, hey, I was just joking with you. Why are you getting so worked up?" Long Chen shouted, putting on a flustered expression. He dodged backward while the Qiankun Cauldron pushed forward.
"Crack!"
The blood-haired man's sharp claws gripped the Qiankun Cauldron. The red-haired man let out a furious roar, his nails snapped, his fingers mangled and bloodied, suffering a heavy blow.
"Hey, hey, hey, give me some face, let's stop fighting. How about turning conflict into friendship?" Long Chen slipped out from behind the Qiankun Cauldron, baring his teeth at the red-haired man. His expression was as infuriating as could be, not at all like someone trying to mediate.
"Boom!"
The red-haired man flew into a rage, stabbing his sickle fiercely at Long Chen. Although only half the blade remained, the pressure was still terrifying.
"Lord Divine Child, he's the guy we're wanting." At that moment, a saint from the Tianxie Sect shouted, recognizing Long Chen.
"So it's you! Go to hell!"
The red-haired man was furious. His figure flickered, transforming into endless illusions, and his blood-red scythe slashed toward Long Chen like a raging storm.
Long Chen hugged the Qiankun Cauldron, dodging left and right, unwilling to fight him head-on, while putting on a panicked expression:
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm here to break up a fight. As the saying goes, Heaven has mercy in life; fighting and killing are not good enough."
Besides, that girl is so beautiful and pleasing to the eye. You say such a healthy girl was cut in half by your knife—what's there to see in that? The
red-haired man gritted his teeth in anger, his hair standing on end like a mad lion. But having suffered a great loss before, he dared not use his weapon to directly clash with the bronze cauldron.
Long Chen looked flustered, his body full of flaws, as if he could be taken down at any moment. But the red-haired man dared not touch the Qiankun Cauldron, so Long Chen always avoided him.
Long Chen was slaughtered in a disheveled state, facing danger, relying on a worn-out bronze cauldron to survive, as if he could be taken down at any moment.
"Buzz!"
Just as Long Chen was in danger, a golden spear shattered the sky. Scorching flames erupted, shooting precisely at Long Chen's cheek, aiming straight for the red-haired man.
It was the blonde woman who had gained a chance to catch her breath. After calming down a bit, she saw Long Chen in danger and immediately launched a counterattack.
With a loud explosion, the red-haired man was shaken violently and was knocked back by the blonde woman's strike. The storm-like attack came to an abrupt halt.
"Thank you for your help. I, Feng You, have taken note of this favor. This place is dangerous—please retreat immediately." The blonde woman shouted.
Although Long Chen shattered the red-haired man's sickle with the Qiankun Cauldron, judging from his panicked movements, she felt his strength wasn't very great. It was only because he had a strange bronze cauldron that he suffered a heavy loss.
So, without even healing her wounds, she came straight up to help Long Chen. After all, Long Chen had saved her life, and she couldn't just stand by and watch him be killed.
This big girl is quite kind-hearted. Alright, I'll help you out a bit!
Long Chen had originally planned to buy the blonde woman a chance to catch his breath before leaving. After all, he was not related to the Fusion Beast Clan and was happy to watch them fight the Tianxie Sect to the bitter end.
However, because the woman acted so loyally, Long Chen actually felt a bit embarrassed to leave. The enemy of an enemy may not be a friend, but helping her out wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
"Hey, hey, stop hitting him. That red-haired guy looks like a donkey—clearly no good. If you cut him once, it would be such a waste!" Long Chen charged into the battlefield holding the Qiankun Cauldron.
"You must leave quickly, or you won't lose your life."
Seeing Long Chen charging forward like a fool, clumsy and full of flaws, the blonde woman shouted angrily, afraid that if he wasn't careful, the red-haired man would take him down.
"It's fine, my bronze cauldron is very sturdy. He can't do anything to it... Ouch..."
Long Chen suddenly cried out in alarm. The red-haired man had actually charged at Long Chen from an extremely strange angle. By the time Long Chen reacted, his sharp claws had already touched the back of Long Chen's collar.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, a strange scene unfolded. Long Chen spun swiftly around the cauldron like a top strapped to the cauldron, narrowly dodging the claw by a hair's breadth.
The red-haired man was shocked. This strike was his ultimate move—timing, angle, and power—all were true manifestations of strength. This flawless strike had missed.
"Careful!"
Just as the red-haired man was attacking Long Chen, the blonde woman was startled. She thrust her spear with all her might, trying to strike where the enemy could strike and help Long Chen escape.
But her movements were still a bit slow, and that slight delay happened to catch a flaw in the red-haired man's eyes.
This flaw originally didn't exist, but when his claw missed, it appeared. At the very moment the flaw appeared, the blonde woman's spear struck perfectly.
It was as if the red-haired man had deliberately used his weakness to give to the blonde woman. At that moment, both the blonde woman and the red-haired man were stunned.
"Pfft!"
The spear pierced through the red-haired man's chest. The divine light in front of him exploded, his clothes torn, and beneath his armor was armor, but it could no longer block the spear, and the spear tip pierced fiercely into his chest.
"You shameless bastard, making you disobedient."
Just as the blonde woman landed her strike, Long Chen used a strange movement technique to circle around the Qiankun Cauldron, swinging his right hand in a circle and striking the red-haired man's face hard.
