Chapter 550: Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven Part 55
At nightfall, a dazzling golden light suddenly bloomed in the darkness, illuminating the originally dark sky. Then, a beautiful figure descended from the sky, like a fairy from outer space descending to the earth.
This is the Goddess Emperor Phoenix - Phoenix Saint Mu Qingxuan. Her jet-black hair cascades down like a waterfall, and her skin is as smooth as snow. Her charming phoenix eyes sparkle with charming light, and her graceful figure reveals her extraordinary temperament.
"Finally I found you." Mu Qingxuan spoke softly, her voice as sweet as a spring. She walked slowly to a young man in green clothes, raised her head slightly and stared at him.
The young man was the enemy that Mu Qingxuan had been looking for for many years - Lu Yu. There was a hint of murderous intent between his brows, and he seemed not surprised by Mu Qingxuan's appearance.
"Mu Qingxuan, what a coincidence. I didn't expect that we would meet here." Lu Yu sneered, his eyes full of teasing.
Mu Qingxuan looked at him calmly, with mixed emotions in her heart. This man used to be her closest person, but now he has become her biggest enemy.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Lu Yu." Mu Qingxuan said, with a sharp gaze, "Don't even think about escaping this time."
Lu Yu snorted coldly, "Want to catch me? Don't dream." He quickly drew out the long sword from his waist, with a cold light flashing.
Mu Qingxuan's expression changed slightly, and he also drew out the jade sword from his waist. The two of them drew their swords, and the sword lights intertwined, stirring up a dazzling light in the dark night.
At this moment, the atmosphere around them suddenly froze, as if even time had frozen. For a moment, only the sound of metal colliding could be heard echoing in the silent night sky.
Mu Qingxuan used her natural sword skills, each move was exquisite, and her sword was as sharp as a flying dragon. But Lu Yu was not to be outdone, relying on his years of accumulated martial arts skills, he fought against her in an inseparable way.
The two men fought back and forth, the sword lights kept interweaving, and the scene was extremely fierce. The surrounding trees were split in half by their sword energy, and dust was flying. It seemed that a shocking battle would break out at any time.
After a while, both of them gradually showed signs of fatigue. Mu Qingxuan panted slightly, frowning. Lu Yu's forehead was also covered with beads of sweat, and it was obvious that he was also a little exhausted.
"Damn it, you are so powerful." Lu Yu said gritting his teeth.
Mu Qingxuan sneered: "I didn't expect your martial arts skills to be so high. But you can't escape today!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly flew into the air, and the whole person turned into a stream of light and attacked Lu Yu. She swung the sword like lightning, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Lu Yu's throat.
Lu Yu suddenly raised his hand and blocked it at lightning speed. With a crisp sound of "dang", the two swords intertwined again.
At this moment, their faces were so close that they could feel each other's breath. Mu Qingxuan's eyes were blazing with anger, and Lu Yu's eyes were also full of hostility.
The two men were on the verge of a life-and-death battle, with swords flying everywhere.
At this moment, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from not far away, breaking the confrontation between the two.
"Help! There's a monster! Help!"
Mu Qingxuan and Lu Yu changed their logins at the same time and looked in the direction where the sound came from. Suddenly, a cloud of thick smoke rose up in the distance, accompanied by a series of shrill screams.
The two of them frowned at the same time.
"It looks like there's trouble again." Mu Qingxuan said lightly.
Lu Yu snorted coldly, "Then let's solve the current trouble first."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them turned into two streams of light and rushed towards the direction where the voice came from.
With a loud "bang", a man in a green shirt was knocked away by the giant wind beast and fell heavily to the ground.
The monster was several feet tall, covered in black scales, with eyes as sharp as torches and roaring. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the man.
The man groaned in pain, dying. He weakly raised his head and saw the monster about to pounce on him. His eyes suddenly widened in fear.
At this moment, a golden light flashed and blocked the monster's path. Mu Qingxuan looked cold, and the jade sword in his hand shone with a chilling light.
"Stop!" she shouted coldly.
The monster stopped immediately and roared angrily. It stared at Mu Qingxuan fiercely, as if it was going to pounce on her and tear her apart the next moment.
At this critical moment, Lu Yu also arrived in time, holding a long sword and standing beside Mu Qingxuan. The two stood side by side, the sword light flashing, nailing the monster firmly in place.
"You are still a little naive if you want to hurt innocent people." Lu Yu said coldly.
The monster let out an earth-shattering roar, as if declaring war on the two. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced on them.
Mu Qingxuan and Lu Yu were not afraid at all and stepped forward. The sword lights of the two men were as dense as heavy rain, and their moves were murderous, surrounding the monster tightly in the middle.
The monster was seen waving its claws desperately and roaring angrily. Mu Qingxuan and Lu Yu cooperated well with each other and their swordsmanship was superb. They gradually suppressed the monster's crazy offensive.
Finally, under the attack of the two, the monster let out a shrill roar and fell to the ground, motionless.
Mu Qingxuan put away her sword and sighed softly. She glanced at the man and said calmly, "Are you okay?"
The man nodded with difficulty, "Thank you very much for saving me." His voice was weak, but his eyes were full of gratitude.
Lu Yu snorted coldly, "You are so unlucky that you were targeted by such a useless monster."
Mu Qingxuan glanced at him, "Don't say that, he is innocent after all."
The man looked at the two men with gratitude, "Thank you so much. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have been killed by the monster."
Mu Qingxuan smiled slightly, "You're welcome. We just happened to pass by here and encountered your predicament."
Lu Yu said coldly: "You are so unlucky, I think it's your bad fate. You should be more careful in the future and don't be targeted by those useless monsters again."
The man smiled awkwardly, "Well, I understand. But I still appreciate your help."
Mu Qingxuan nodded gently, "Then we'll take our leave. Have a good rest."
After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave. Lu Yu followed her, and their backs gradually disappeared into the night.
The man watched the two men leave, his heart filled with gratitude and admiration. He secretly felt lucky that if he hadn't met these two masters, he would have died under the claws of the monster.
"Thank them so much." The man muttered to himself, then slowly stood up and limped away into the distance.
Just as the man was leaving, a figure quietly appeared in the woods not far away. That person was Lu Yu who had fought with Mu Qingxuan before.
He looked at the man's back coldly, with a sneer on his face.
"I see. No wonder you are so unlucky. It seems that you are here for that treasure as well."
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, a calculating light flashed in his eyes. He turned around, walked in the opposite direction, and disappeared into the darkness.
At the same time, Mu Qingxuan was walking alone on the dark forest path. Her brows were furrowed, and she was obviously thinking about something.
"Since Lu Yu is here, it seems he is also looking for that treasure." She whispered to herself, "This is really troublesome."
Mu Qingxuan sighed and quickened her pace. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions. She wanted to find the legendary treasure as soon as possible, but she was also worried about having to fight Lu Yu again.
Unconsciously, she had arrived in front of an ancient ruins. This place was shrouded in a mysterious atmosphere, and seemed to hide some unknown secrets.
Mu Qingxuan took a deep breath and stepped into the ancient ruins. She moved forward cautiously, observing the surrounding environment and being alert to possible dangers.
Finally, after passing through a winding and dark corridor, Mu Qingxuan arrived at a brightly lit hall. In the center of the hall stood a towering stone statue, exuding a sacred and mysterious aura.
Mu Qingxuan walked up to the statue and looked at it carefully. She saw that the statue was wearing golden armor and holding a dazzling treasure in both hands.
This is exactly what Mu Qingxuan came here for—the legendary "Phoenix Sacred Artifact". This treasure is said to contain infinite power and can grant its owner unparalleled power.
Mu Qingxuan carefully reached out her hand, trying to take the treasure from the statue. But just as her hand was about to touch the treasure, a powerful force suddenly hit her like a tsunami, and she involuntarily took a step back.
"What? Is it a barrier?" Mu Qingxuan blinked in surprise, and then realized that this treasure must be hiding some unknown secret.
She quickly stepped back and carefully observed her surroundings. At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"I didn't expect you to come here too."
Mu Qingxuan's heart sank, and she slowly turned around. She saw Lu Yu standing not far away, emitting a powerful aura.
"Lu Yu, what are you doing here?" Mu Qingxuan asked coldly.
Lu Yu sneered, "Didn't you guess it? I'm also here to find this legendary 'Phoenix Sacred Artifact'."
Mu Qingxuan's eyes shone. "It seems that our goals are the same. Then, I advise you to leave obediently."
"Hmph, forget your kindness." Lu Yu snorted coldly, "I will not give up this treasure easily. Since you are here, let's fight it out!"
After saying that, he quickly drew the long sword from his waist and rushed towards Mu Qingxuan.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxuan said no more. She swung the jade sword in her hand, and it collided fiercely with Lu Yu's sword.
With a crisp "clang" sound, the sword lights of the two people intertwined in the air, emitting a dazzling light.
The two of them once again fell into a fierce sword fight. Mu Qingxuan's swordsmanship was light and agile, and every move contained amazing power. Lu Yu, relying on his own powerful cultivation, was evenly matched with her, showing no weakness at all.
The two men's swords flashed like lightning, and each move was merciless. The sound of metal colliding echoed in the hall, as if it was going to shatter the world.
Just as the two were fighting fiercely, suddenly, a powerful force came from the statue, sweeping over like a raging wave.
Mu Qingxuan and Lu Yu felt
