The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

"Oh? Why is that so?" Chu Liuyue raised her brows slightly. "Since the ranking of the challenge is already out after reaching the top of the mountain, why should they make everyone wait here for a month?"

If they really wanted to bring them to the God Residence Realm, they could've just gone there directly. Why did they have to go through so much trouble?

He Ziji was stunned. "Because… Because this was a rule set from the beginning…"

No reason.

Ever since they found out about the existence of this challenge, the rules had been set. This was like an agreement, and no one would get to the bottom of it.

Since the guardian said so, they did so. It was as simple as that.

Previously, He Ziji hadn't thought about this question, but he was confused when he heard Chu Liuyue's question. However, he couldn't figure it out either.

After thinking about it and not getting any answers, He Ziji scratched his head. "This… I guess they have to make preparations to pass through the realm gate with so many people?"

Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu came from the God Residence Realm, so they naturally knew that this guess was impossible. Then, this matter was obviously even more problematic.

"Ah—" A scream suddenly sounded, breaking the silence.

The few of them turned around and saw a few people running over in a panic. All of them had panicked expressions and were covered in blood.

Clearly, they had just experienced a fierce battle.

Roar!

Behind them, a Gray-Winged Demon Wolf was rapidly approaching!

The forest was dense, and it couldn't use its full strength. But as a ninth-grade fiend, its speed was still very shocking!

The few of them were in a sorry state after being chased by it.

"Save us! Please!" the young man running at the front shouted in panic.

He Zilan grabbed her brother's sleeve. "Big Brother, this is a competition! How can we help others?"

It was fine if they were close to their own people, but why should they save these people who they didn't know?

ραпdǎ Йᴏνêl(сòm) "Besides, they brought danger to us!"

He Ziji nodded.

Although he had always been enthusiastic, he knew when to score. He didn't want to die because of this.

"Let's go!" He Ziji shouted and turned around without hesitation.

Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu naturally didn't want to interfere. They had already decided not to make a move here if they could.

As long as they successfully reached the top of the mountain, they would find out what they were up to.

Seeing that the few of them had turned around and left without any intention of helping, a trace of despair flashed across their eyes.

—In this challenge, there was an unspoken rule: Once you participate in the challenge, your life and death won't matter!

If he died here, he would have died in vain!

Even though it was dangerous, there were still countless cultivators rushing forward. This was because in this world, the strong were respected!

However, Chu Liuyue had just taken a few steps when she suddenly stood still and looked back again.

Rong Xiu stopped and followed her line of sight. With this glance, he also sensed that something was wrong, and his expression changed slightly.

The duo stopped what they were doing and quickly attracted He Ziji's attention.

His eyes widened slightly as he asked in disbelief, "You're not really planning to help, are you? This is a challenge!"

Those people are all our opponents!

Of course, Chu Liuyue didn't want to help. She just felt that there was something wrong with the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf.

At the thought of this, she took a step forward and flicked her wrist!

A snow-white stream of light quickly streaked across the sky and headed straight for the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf!

Swoosh!please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

The sound of a sharp blade piercing into flesh made one's teeth ache. Then, there was a muffled sound.

Thump!

The Gray-Winged Demon Wolf fell heavily to the ground!

Between its brows, a dagger as thin as a cicada's wing was almost completely submerged! Dark red and sweet blood slowly gushed out.

The Gray-Winged Demon Wolf's eyeballs bulged, and its expression was ferocious. However, there was still no sign of life.

In the end, its head tilted to the side, and it died.

He Ziji and He Zilan were shocked. One move! This woman actually only used one move to kill the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf?

This means that not only did her dagger pierce the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf's forehead, but it also shattered its beast core! What kind of strength is this?

He Ziji had long thought that these two people might be much more powerful than they looked. But when he saw this scene, he was still shocked.

In any case, he knew that he didn't have the ability to do so.

He Zilan also shivered, and the way she looked at Chu Liuyue changed drastically.

She had no doubt that if the other party wanted to, she could definitely use the same method to easily take her life! After all, she couldn't even defeat this Gray-Winged Demon Wolf!

Recalling her previous offenses, He Zilan broke out in a cold sweat.

However, Chu Liuyue wasn't in the mood to care about these two people as she walked over.

Rong Xiu walked side by side with her.

The few people who had just escaped from the danger were all stunned on the spot. They looked at the corpse of the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf and couldn't recover for a long time.

The Gray-Winged Demon Wolf that almost took our lives died just like that?

It was only when they heard footsteps that they came back to their senses.

"T-thank you…" The young man who shouted for help looked at Chu Liuyue gratefully.

The remaining few people hurriedly thanked her. However, they looked like they were in a sorry state.

Chu Liuyue ignored them and walked straight to the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf's side. She bent down and pulled out her dagger.

The bright and sharp dagger wasn't stained with blood at all.

She turned her gaze and looked at the Gray-Winged Demon Wolf.

When they didn't get a response, those people felt a little awkward. But when they thought about how their lives had been saved by someone else, they were still very grateful.

"May I know your names? In the future…"

"Go down the mountain," said Chu Liuyue calmly as she stood up.

"…What?"

The few of them were stunned and looked at each other. Does this mean… that she wants us to withdraw from the challenge?

That's true. If she hadn't taken action, we would definitely not have been able to continue participating in the challenge. Besides, in our current state, we probably won't be able to pass.

"Then…" The youth in the lead spoke hesitantly. He wanted to find out Chu Liuyue's identity so that he could repay her in the future.

However, Chu Liuyue only lazily waved her hand. "There's no need to thank me. I didn't intend to save you anyway."

These words were hard to accept.

Seeing that Chu Liuyue didn't want to say anything to them, the few of them didn't continue pestering her. After thanking her seriously again, they headed down the mountain.

The few of them quickly disappeared.

He Ziji and He Zilan looked at each other in confusion. If she asked those people to leave the challenge because she wanted to reduce a few opponents for herself… That doesn't seem to make sense. With her strength, it's obvious that she doesn't take these people seriously.

Chu Liuyue lowered her eyes and gazed at the faint mark on the wolf's neck.

This Gray-Winged Demon Wolf had an owner.
