Chapter 715: Chapter 0453: This is a Desperate Fight_2 Chapter 715: Chapter 0453: This is a Desperate Fight_2 Considering these possibilities sent shivers down Qi Tian’s spine. He had worked so hard to achieve his current status, he did not intend to lose his life foolishly here, letting others trample over his dignity.

To preserve all this, Qi Tian had limited choices. He must assist Liang Yuqi, and furthermore, he must help Liang Yuqi defeat the masked man. If not, he would face certain death.

Qi Tian knew the situation he was in very well. If he dared to announce his intention to assist Liang Yuqi, given the masked man’s ruthless handling of Wan Xiaolan earlier, he would certainly not let Qi Tian off the hook. Qi Tian did not wish to follow in Wan Xiaolan’s footsteps and attract the masked man’s deliberate targeting.

Qi Tian carefully observed the battle between Liang Yuqi and the masked man. Quickly, a spark lit up in his eyes, noticing the differences in the footing of Liang Yuqi and the masked man.

Liang Yuqi stood on the deck, moving with the ship, while the masked man floated above the flying vessel, moving with the vessel. In other words, they were both in different vehicles, both fighting at the same speed.

A faint smile emerged at the corner of Qi Tian’s mouth, and he recoiled back to the control board. He released the Heavenly Dao Engine’s Sensing Function, blanketing the whole ship, paying particular attention to both Liang Yuqi and the masked man, two strong cultivators at the Gold Core Stage Level 6. Simultaneously, Qi Tian reached one hand to the controls of the speed array, placing his hand over the speed anchor.

The Heavenly Dao Engine was extremely sensitive to changes in Spirit Qi, even the slightest change could not escape its detection.

Soon enough, Qi Tian detected via the Heavenly Dao Engine that a massive amount of energy had gathered in the wand held by the masked man. As the masked man directed the wand at Liang Yuqi, and inscribed the runes onto it, Qi Tian swiftly withdrew the speed anchor and shoved it into another speed array with barely any room for delay.

The flying sailboat, which was moving forward, suddenly paused. Immediately after, the speed of the ship dropped drastically, creating a distance between the ship and the masked man in an instant. The spells that the masked man had released were charging towards Liang Yuqi, but because of the significant change in the ship’s speed, it wasn’t stationary relative to the flying boat. In other words, one was moving forward, and the other was moving backward. Thus, the masked man’s assured attack was in vain.

The masked man initially did not think of Qi Tian. He controlled the flying boat and returned above the flying sailboat. Raising his wand again, he prepared to launch another attack towards Liang Yuqi. However, just like before, even with all the preparations, the sudden change in the flying ship’s speed created a considerable distance between the flying boat and the ship, causing his attack to fail once again.

Failing once could still be explained as an error, but when the same thing occurs twice, that’s questionable.

The masked man was extremely cautious, and that’s why he dared to intercept Liang Yuqi. His gaze immediately fell on the cockpit of the flying sailboat. Surely there must be someone inside, manipulating the ship’s speed, to produce such results.

A trace of fierceness flashed in the masked man’s eyes. A mere cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage dared to meddle in a fight between two powerful cultivators at the Gold Core Stage Level 6. He truly was courting death. He aimed his wand at the ship’s cabin, ready to launch an attack.

Liang Yuqi had a rare opportunity to catch her breath. Instead of rushing to save Qi Tian, she swallowed a pill to restore her magic power before rushing towards the cabin. The delay in time was only two or three seconds, but in that short period, the masked man’s attack was already on its way.

Liang Yuqi secretly thought, “this is bad,” and hurriedly picked up the pace. But she was still a step behind. Just then, Qi Tian managed to change the speed of the flying sailboat for a second time, evading the masked man’s attack at the last moment.

The masked man let out a cold snort. He said, “Lad, well done, you’ve got a modicum of wit. But in the face of absolute power, your cleverness amounts to nothing. Now, let me give you a taste of the crushing strength of superior might.”

The masked man held his staff high in the air as uncountable Spirit Qi of the Heaven and Earth converged at the top of his staff. The runes on the staff all started to glow brilliantly.

Liang Yuqi’s face dramatically changed; she once again increased her speed to its utmost limit. “Direct your ire towards me. Spare the youngster at the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

The masked man paid no mind to Liang Yuqi’s challenge. With a casual wave of his staff, a large number of red dots appeared out of thin air. These red dots instantly condensed into a volley of fireballs, each the size of a basin. As the masked man moved his staff, the several dozen fireballs spread across a vast space, raining down and aiming at the ship’s cabin and its surroundings. No matter how Qi Tian adjusted the Speed Anchor’s position – whether he sped up or slowed down the flying sailboat – it would be impossible to entirely evade those fireballs. It was almost certain that some of them would hit the cabin. This barrage’s power could potentially compromise Qi Tian’s safety within the cabin.

It was at that moment that Liang Yuqi whipped out the red silk entwined around her arm. The silk shot out like arrows, blocking the falling fireballs even before they could reach the ship’s side.

On this occasion, Liang Yuqi used the red silk for protection, not for attack. Consequently, the fireballs burned holes in the silk. But fortunately, they managed to stop all the fireballs.

The damage done to her red silk pained Liang Yuqi as if a knife were cutting her heart. That was, after all, one of the most formidable possessions she had. Repairing it later would undeniably cost a great deal. Needless to say, all this was caused by that masked man. What frustrated Liang Yuqi even more was that they had seemingly exhausted all their means. Even Qi Tian had come forward to aid her, yet, the masked man’s strength was just too formidable. With their current powers, they were perhaps heading towards total annihilation in this battle. Such an outcome was definitely not what she wanted.

Liang Yuqi looked up at the masked man in the sky, her expression turning resolute. At that moment, Liang Yuqi made up her mind. Things had come to such a pass – she would not allow the masked man to get off lightly.

As Liang Yuqi chanted Sspirit rune, her body shimmered with glowing runes. Under the protection of these runes, she rose into the sky, rushing towards the masked man.

The masked man’s face changed. He had been through countless battles and immediately recognized that Liang Yuqi was risking her life. He coldly snorted, ‘Dying to a fight, should I be scared of that?’.

The masked man let out a roar, not giving an inch as he also charged towards Liang Yuqi. His strength was greater than Liang Yuqi’s, and he had as many mystic weapons and skills as her. He didn’t believe he would lose.

For a moment, the masked man and Liang Yuqi, like two enraged lions, collided in mid-air. Even the thick unbudging fog was weakened considerably by their conflict, some parts of the fog were even stained red with fresh blood. Whose blood it was, no one knew.

Moments later, the fight between the two quietened. Liang Yuqi fell from the sky, landing powerlessly on the deck of the flying sailboat. She crouched on the deck, clutching her chest, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
