Chapter 295 The City That Never Sleeps 6
She looked down at the dark flame licking her fingertips, her eyes devoid of any warmth.
In fact, she had already saved up enough Blood Points to redeem the item three months ago.
The reason she stayed in this killing field for half a year was because she discovered that every life-or-death battle was the best opportunity to temper herself.
The moment the blade cuts through the flesh, spiritual energy flows wildly through the meridians, gradually eroding away any restless energy.
Under the pressure of life and death, even the soul is forced to tense up, becoming stronger with each extreme stretch.
The old woman was right. Rolling around in the midst of battle could quickly improve one's strength. She wanted it to be bloody, and even more so, she wanted to make progress inch by inch in this bloody battle.
Now, Guan Xun, even just standing there with a harmless smile, can send chills down the spines of those around him.
Her brows were now filled with an indelible aura of murderous intent, and her entire being exuded only an overwhelming, palpable killing intent.
Sometimes, just a casual glance at someone can be like an invisible chain, instantly freezing the other person's soul in place, unable to move.
Many people don't even dare to raise their heads in front of her, let alone make eye contact with her.
Although his cultivation level remained stagnant without any sign of improvement, Guan Xun could clearly sense that his true strength was now vastly different from what it used to be.
When spiritual energy flows through the meridians, it is as steady as ten-thousand-year-old black iron, without the slightest stagnation.
Every strike she made landed precisely on its target; though light, it contained terrifying energy, causing even those with higher cultivation levels to feel fear.
She slowly extinguished the dark flames, raised her eyes to scan the deathly silence around her, and slightly raised her eyebrows.
Since no one dares to go up, there's no point in staying in this killing field.
Having accumulated enough bloodshed and honed their strength to be domineering enough, it's time to leave.
She realized that she didn't have much time left and needed to proceed with her next plan as soon as possible.
Next, we need to conquer the tower.
Just as I was thinking this, the sky above my head suddenly darkened without warning.
The sky, which was already somewhat dim, was instantly swallowed by darkness, leaving not a single ray of light.
The vultures on the ruins flapped their wings in fright, as if they had encountered something terrible, and let out sharp cries.
"Boom! Boom!"
Immediately afterwards, deafening thunder roared in succession, and dark red lightning tore through the clouds, dancing wildly in the sky like ferocious fire serpents, illuminating the entire killing field in an eerie crimson light.
Before anyone could react, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl struck straight down toward the center of the killing platform!
"Bang!!!"
A blinding red light suddenly burst forth, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.
The blood scabs on the stone platform were blown away by the lightning, causing rubble to scatter everywhere and filling the air with a burnt smell.
Guan Xun subconsciously took a step back, narrowed his eyes, and raised his hand to block in front of him.
The dark flames that had just been put away instantly reignited in his palm, flickering and warily watching the center of the red light.
Her five senses had been honed to an extreme level of sensitivity, allowing her to clearly perceive the aura surging within the red light.
It wasn't unfamiliar; in fact, it was so familiar that it sent a chill down her spine.
As the red light faded and thick smoke rose, a slender figure stood gracefully in the center of the killing platform.
Black hair and a red dress...
When he saw the figure clearly, Guan Xun's pupils contracted slightly, and his hand holding the dark flame tightened abruptly.
It's Blood Princess!
It was her?! Wasn't she already dead at his hands?
Guan Xun remembered the bloody source of his first income perfectly.
I never expected that this person would still be alive.
The thought flashed through her mind quickly, and only one thing came to mind: revenge.
Blood Princess has come seeking revenge.
Almost the instant the thought was formed, Guan Xun's murderous aura exploded, solidifying and freezing the air inch by inch, even blocking the surrounding wind.
The blood scabs on the killing platform were shaken off by this oppressive force, and the surrounding crowd fell silent, not daring to even breathe.
Those who were just shouting fervently now looked puzzled, but they were still a group of thugs after all. After a brief pause, they grinned with bloodthirsty smiles.
The sudden appearance of the Blood Princess simply means that someone is destined to die.
"Lord Blood Princess, kill her!"
"Oh ho! That's right! Kill her! Kill her!"
……
Dark flames surged, turning the cold, sharp eyes of General Xun crimson. An invisible killing intent had formed a massive blade on her body, its tip pointing directly at the red-skirted figure opposite her.
If the Blood Princess shows even the slightest sign of distress, I will not hesitate to stab her and grind her to dust once again.
However, Blood Princess showed no intention of making a move.
Her face was indifferent and calm, like a stagnant pool. She simply placed her hands respectfully on her abdomen, bent her waist slightly, and gave Guan Xun a steady bow.
"Number, the city lord requests your presence."
The moment these words were spoken, the noisy killing field fell silent.
Even the most frenzied roars abruptly ceased, and everyone's gaze was fixed on Blood Princess, then quickly swept over Guan Xun, their eyes filled with apprehension.
City Lord?
These two words hold absolute authority in the City That Never Sleeps, a presence that even the killing gods of the Killing Arena dare not easily utter.
No one knows the city lord's true identity, no one has ever seen the city lord's true face, all that is known is that the city lord can decide the life or death of anyone in the City That Never Sleeps with a single word.
Guan Xun's murderous aura remained undiminished, and his vigilance only increased. He asked coldly, "What is it?"
Blood Princess was patient and explained briefly: "Over five hundred consecutive wins is enough to impress the city lord. The city lord just wants to see your abilities and has no ill intentions."
Before she finished speaking, she turned and slowly walked out of the killing field, her tone firm and unyielding: "Please come with me."
Almost the instant she spoke, the red lightning above her head rolled and churned again, the clouds surged like raging waves, and a chilling killing intent emanated from the flashes of lightning.
Lightning danced across the field, occasionally striking the edge of the killing arena and sending up a shower of rubble.
This is a stark warning.
Anyone who dares to refuse will be reduced to ashes.
“City Lord…” Staring at Xue Ji’s back, Guan Xun’s eyes were as cold as ice. She could feel the power contained in the clouds, which was far beyond what she could resist at the moment.
The city lord's invitation, though ostensibly an invitation, was in reality a form of coercion.
They're definitely a tough opponent; we have to go whether we want to or not.
The dark flames at her fingertips vanished abruptly, but her murderous aura remained. After a moment's hesitation, she followed him.
The atmosphere in the killing field eased after everyone left.
Some people looked at the gradually dissipating red lightning in the sky, their faces filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.
They had seen people who escaped the city gates only to be struck by lightning and reduced to ashes, so they knew how terrifying this thing was.
Soon, the blood-soaked killing field erupted into chaos once again.
Now that the God of Slaughter is gone, they have begun a new round of killing.
