Chapter 655: Chapter 142: Return to the Ancient Dreams (34)

Terry stubbornly resisted the onslaught of Blood River while his tiger claws, still clutched around the giant sword, never loosened.

Seeing this, Gui He decisively dropped his sword, his fists gathering the power of his blood and qi, making use of the cover of Blood River to fiercely smash towards his opponent’s face.

"Terry, be careful!"

At Lin Lang’s instruction, a noble disciple shouted towards the arena, alerting Terry.

Terry sensed the danger, tilted his head to dodge Gui He’s fist, and then his tiger body shook as his Bloodline Power burst forth once again.

In an instant, the blood-colored patterns around Terry detached from his body and expanded outward while also growing larger.

The Blood River controlled by Gui He was forcefully pushed back by the blood patterns.

With his hands now freed, Terry and Gui He engaged in intense close combat.

Leveraging the power of blood and qi and the protective Bloodline Power of the turtle clan, Gui He’s physique was incredibly hardened, but even so, he could only barely contend with Terry and still could not withstand Terry’s charged heavy blows.

In short, Gui He was feeling very stifled; he now fully understood Lu Hong’s pursuit of physical strength.

In close combat professions, aside from skills, the side with the stronger physique has a tremendous advantage.

Now Terry had an absolute advantage, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would surely be the final victor.

Therefore, Gui He had to make a change, but to defeat Terry, there really weren’t any good strategies, especially since Terry had not yet transformed into his beast form, which would significantly enhance his abilities after the transformation.

In just a few short minutes, the two had exchanged over a hundred moves, and the high-intensity fighting made Gui He start to feel exhausted.

On the other hand, Terry was getting more and more excited the more he fought, his speed ever increasing.

Growing through battle, breaking through in the midst of combat, this was the foundational ability of the Bloodline Tiger clan.

Terry already sensed that after this battle, he would have progressed as much as half a year of arduous practice.

As the battle became clear, the noble disciples had already lost interest in continuing to watch; it seemed this Gui He was nothing special after all.

As for Lin Lang, her face was already brimming with smiles, her mood very good.

"Hong’er!"

"Ah?!" Tianxiang Hong came back to her senses from her trance: "Lady Lin Lang."

Seeing Tianxiang Hong’s distracted state, Lin Lang’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as she spoke in a deep voice, "What’s the matter? Can’t bear to see him?"

"No," Tianxiang Hong shook her head: "After all, he was my childhood playmate..."

"No matter, with me here, Terry won’t harm his life."

But as for chopping off hands and feet, I can’t meddle in that!

Lin Lang chuckled, pulling Tianxiang Hong into her embrace, continuously consoling her.

Above the arena, Terry clasped his hands into fists and, accompanied by a furious roar of a Bloodline Tiger, smashed down ruthlessly.

Gui He couldn’t dodge in time and had to take the hit head-on.

The defense constructed by the power of blood and qi and the turtle clan’s Bloodline Power was easily shattered by Terry, with the force of the punch undiminished, coming down directly on his head.

Just as Gui He was about to take a heavy blow, a golden figure swooped onto the stage.

With just a single finger, he easily withstood the falling punch.

Terry was thoroughly enjoying the fight, not caring who appeared before him, and immediately unleashed a tiger’s roar, trying to repel the person before him.

The tiger’s roar was full of impact, deafening to the ears.

But to the newcomer, it was as inconsequential as the meowing of a cat, not affecting him in the slightest.

"Sickly cat, dare to shriek and shout in front of me?" a crisp voice rang out.

Gui He looked at the figure standing before him, someone he could only once look up to as one would to the clouds and the bright moon, so far out of reach, but today, stood right before him.

After speaking, a lion’s roar exploded towards Tianhong Peak.

That was Lionheart’s Roar, the Bloodline Skill only the Lionheart royal family could wield.

Compared to Terry, this lion’s roar was like a startling thunderclap, striking at everyone’s heart.

Including Gui He, everyone on Tianhong Peak, without exception, had suffered heavy damage. .com

The key target of the attack, Terry, had long since lost his mind, his entire body numb, losing control over his limbs, and he slumped down with a thud.

Lin Lang, clutching her chest as if it were scorched, forced a smile and said to the woman in the center of the arena, "Sister Chang Xin, how... how did you get here?"

Shi Changxin glanced at Lin Lang and said, "My father came to me in a dream, telling me he chose an assistant for me named Gui He, so when I woke up, I started asking around for his whereabouts. Someone told me you brought him here, so I came."

As she spoke, Shi Changxin turned to look at Gui He, who was lying on the ground with blood flowing from his seven orifices, and kicked him lightly, "Hey! Are you dead? If not, follow me to the Beast Battle Hall to report."

Having said that, she strode away, completely ignoring the resentful nobles behind her.

Gui He struggled to his feet and, staggering, followed behind Shi Changxin, making his way down from the arena and gradually disappearing from the crowd’s sight.

As they watched Shi Changxin leave, Lin Lang’s face showed her resentment, and the other nobles around her were seething yet dared not speak out.

Although the Lionheart God was severely injured by the three Great Elven Kings, the Lionheart royal family remained overwhelmingly powerful.

Terry seemed formidable enough, but in front of Shi Changxin, he was like a child, completely unable to defend himself.

This Shi Changxin had certainly reached the Third Transition, and it wasn’t just the early stage that simple.

Similar in age to Gui He, her strength was already on par with the older generation of her clan. Such a prodigy could only be matched by members of the two top noble beast clans.

In comparison, Lin Lang and the others were still somewhat lacking.

Shi Changxin was the strongest of the younger generation in the royal capital, and with the Lionheart royal family backing her up, she hardly had to show respect to anyone except Heavenly Gods, doing as she pleased. Hence, she was also known as the ’female demon’ by other noble families in the royal capital.

No one expected that this lawless ’female demon’ without friends would stand up for Gui He today, pulling him out of a deadly situation.

No matter what the reason was, at least from now on, Lin Lang dared not touch Gui He again. If she did, she would have to be ready to face the fury of the ’female demon.’

Shi Changxin wasn’t walking fast, which was somewhat considerate of Gui He, but she didn’t come forward to help, letting Gui He follow her. After walking three miles, they returned to the royal capital. .com

The moment he stepped into the royal capital, Gui He could no longer hold on and passed out.

Shi Changxin curled her lip, "Trash!"

After saying that, she carried Gui He on her shoulder to the Beast Battle Hall.

"Someone come!"

At Shi Changxin’s call, a group of burly men from the Beast Battle Hall rushed out of the house, crowding around her, and fawned, "Sister Chang Xin, if there’s anything you need help with, just tell us."

"Treat him, don’t let him die," Shi Changxin tossed Gui He to one of the muscular men. "Later, send him to my room."

She walked away under the astonished gazes of everyone.

"Chang... Chang... Sister Chang Xin got a man?!"

Once Shi Changxin was well out of sight, a group of men exclaimed in shock.

"How come Sister Chang Xin didn’t pick one of us? If she said the word, I’d definitely clean myself up spotless."

"Nonsense! Sister Chang Xin likes pretty boys. Look at this kid, with his delicate features. Just not sure if he can handle Sister Chang Xin’s demands."

"Stop the chatter and get to work. Didn’t you see Sister Chang Xin was in a hurry?"

"Right, right, right, I’ll treat him first and then take him to Sister Chang Xin’s room."

After working out in the training field and taking a bath, Shi Changxin returned to her room to find her subordinates had neatly handled everything, cleaning Gui He up and wrapping him in a blanket, placing him on the soft bed in Shi Changxin’s room.

Looking at the delicately dressed Gui He, Shi Changxin’s brows twitched slightly. Damn, did they misunderstand something?

Shi Changxin had no concept of caring for others; she kicked Gui He off the soft bed and then lay down herself and drifted into a beautiful sleep.

She slept for three days, while Gui He showed no signs of awakening.

Later, Shi Changxin called for a famous doctor to come for a consultation, but even the physician couldn’t determine why Gui He couldn’t wake up.

"Could it be he was silenced by my Lionheart’s Roar?" Shi Changxin was full of doubt; it shouldn’t be like this— she hadn’t used her full strength, and even if he had taken the full force of Lionheart’s Roar, it shouldn’t have left him in this state.

Actually, Gui He was now in a very mysterious state. His main practice of qi and blood and his own Bloodline Power had initially been unrelated, but since Gui He started using his qi and blood for cultivation, the connection between the two began to grow closer and closer.

Gui He overused his Bloodline Power in his practice, a dangerous move that could lead to depleting his potential and ultimately rendering him a wreck.

However, this battle at Tianhong Peak under enormous external pressure had started to fuse the two powers within Gui He. f\ree webn ovel(.)com

If this fusion were successful, the hidden dangers within Gui He’s body would be eliminated, and his strength would surge due to the fusion of the two powers.
