The three of them created shields at the same time, but theirs were far less sturdy than the Beast King’s. With a series of CRACKS, they all shattered.

They scrambled to dodge, but were inevitably hit. The places where they were struck went numb almost instantly.

Chi Yan wailed while fleeing, ”We’re done for, we’re done for! We’ve picked a fight we can’t win! Why don’t we just run for it?”

Feng Lin was also thinking of retreating. After all, the Beast King was too strong. The prize was good, but they had to be alive to take it.

But to their surprise, Lu Sangjiu, who they thought was also out of options, suddenly seemed to make up her mind and took out a small talisman.

”Protect yourselves!”

After that hurried warning, she aimed the talisman at the Beast King and poured her Spiritual Power into it!

The next moment, both of them stared wide-eyed as the talisman in Lu Sangjiu’s hand emitted a brilliant light. An imperious Sword Intent shot out, slashing straight toward the Beast King!

The once-majestic Beast King felt the power of the Sword Intent, and in an instant, all the white fur on its body stood on end. Lu Sangjiu even thought she saw terror in its little black-bean-like eyes.

It tried desperately to flee, but locked on by the Sword Intent, there was ultimately no escape.

In the end, the Ice Shield it had formed in front of itself was sliced down the middle by the Sword Intent as if it were tofu.

The sword light didn’t stop there. It slammed viciously into the Beast King, sending it flying in an instant!

The Beast King slammed heavily against the Ice Wall behind it, then tumbled to the ground, its condition unknown.

Witnessing the power of this single strike, Lu Sangjiu couldn’t help but marvel at how formidable Sword Bu Gui truly was in the Sword Dao.

As for Chi Yan and Feng Lin, they were completely dumbfounded.

After a long moment, Chi Yan finally reacted and stammered, ”Is... is it dead?”

Feng Lin: ”I... I think so?”

But Lu Sangjiu frowned. ”Doesn’t look like it.”

The two had been about to walk over, but at her words, they immediately froze and stared warily in that direction.

Then they heard Lu Sangjiu add, ”It’s not dead, but it’s close... Whatever, let’s get the Cold Ice Crystal Stones first.”

All three of them had been injured to some extent. Parts of their bodies were numb, making them stagger as they walked.

But this slight delay was enough for them to suddenly hear a sound from behind.

Before they could react, they saw a figure flash past them, heading straight for the Cold Ice Crystal Stones!

The expressions of Lu Sangjiu and the others changed in unison. They had fought tooth and nail for this; how could they let someone else just swoop in and take the prize?

Chi Yan, as if injected with chicken blood, was suddenly no longer limping. His muscles bulged in an instant, and he pounced on the person like a small leopard!

His unceremonious pounce immediately pinned the person beneath him.

Lu Sangjiu heard a delicate cry and froze. ’That voice... Why does it sound so familiar?’

When she took a closer look, her expression changed drastically.

’What the fuck? Isn’t that Ye Zhiyao???’

A sense of foreboding washed over her. Forgetting everything else, she immediately rushed over.

’After all that hard work, if Ye Zhiyao ends up reaping the benefits, I’ll die of frustration!’

Meanwhile, after tackling Ye Zhiyao, Chi Yan didn’t recognize who it was.

He only sensed that it was a Female Cultivator beneath him, so his initial thought of beating the person up subsided. Instead, he simply held her down and yelled, ”Immortal, grab the stuff!”

At this point, Lu Sangjiu couldn’t spare a thought for Chi Yan. Her only focus was on getting her hands on the prize.

However, just as she reached the spot, she suddenly heard the hum of a spell being cast behind her, clearly aimed at her.

She had to sidestep to dodge. When she looked back... great, it was Qin Yu again!

’This scene is so damn familiar.’ A bitter taste filled Lu Sangjiu’s mouth, and she was so pissed off she wanted to start cursing.

Fortunately, she still had Feng Lin as an ally. Seeing the situation, Feng Lin immediately took out her suona and began to play.

Caught off guard, Qin Yu’s face contorted in pain, and for a moment, he could no longer bother with Lu Sangjiu.

Lu Sangjiu didn’t hesitate, once again turning to grab the Cold Ice Crystal Stones.

But at that moment, the previously still cave suddenly began to tremble. It seemed... it was about to collapse!

Lu Sangjiu cursed her rotten luck, thoroughly damning the blasted Heavenly Dao in her mind.

But this only made her resolve to obtain the Cold Ice Crystal Stones stronger than ever before.

’I’m the woman who’s going to overthrow the female lead. If I can’t even fight for a small opportunity like this, what hope do I have of ever competing with her?’

At this moment, she wanted more than just the Cold Ice Crystal Stones; she wanted to truly defeat Ye Zhiyao once, with her own strength!

So, ignoring Chi Yan’s cry of alarm from behind, she didn’t even turn her head. ”You guys go first!”

Then, without breaking stride, she continued straight for the Cold Ice Crystal Stones!

At the same time, she heard the voices of Qin Yu and Ye Zhiyao from behind her.

Qin Yu: ”Junior Sister, let’s go!”

Ye Zhiyao hesitated, ”But Junior Sister Lu...”

”She’s asking to die. Why should we care about her?”

At that moment, Lu Sangjiu suddenly recalled the part in the book where Li Qiancheng died. How similar it was to the present!

Although she wasn’t staying behind to save Ye Zhiyao, it was their sudden appearance and attempt to steal the prize that had led to this.

Yet after a single, seemingly kind-hearted moment of hesitation, she allowed Qin Yu to pull her away.

’Is this the so-called kind-hearted female lead from the book?’

’Is this the Child of Fortune that the Heavenly Dao would have countless people sacrifice everything, even their lives, just to ensure her Ascension?’

’She’s not worthy!’

Boulders rained down on Lu Sangjiu from the cave ceiling. Holding nothing back, she punched out again and again, shattering every rock in her path into pieces.

The path before her was clear. Just before the cave collapsed completely, Lu Sangjiu finally grasped all of the Cold Ice Crystal Stones in her hand!

...She had done it! Even with the Heavenly Dao’s favoritism, she had, in the end, relied on her own power to utterly defeat Ye Zhiyao for once!

In the unseen world, Lu Sangjiu seemed to hear a faint CRACK, as if a tiny but very real fissure had finally appeared on some indestructible shackle.

The sensation left Lu Sangjiu in a daze for a moment. Then, she heard a cry of alarm from behind her, ”Immortal, watch out!”

Lu Sangjiu snapped back to her senses and turned in astonishment, only to find that Chi Yan hadn’t left.

He was already behind her, shattering a boulder that was falling toward her.

What surprised Lu Sangjiu even more was that it wasn’t just Chi Yan... Feng Lin hadn’t left either!

She was also fighting off the falling rocks as she made her way toward the two of them.

However, the cave was collapsing so violently that they could no longer keep up just by smashing the rocks.

At the critical moment, Lu Sangjiu suddenly heard two ”CHIRP CHIRP” sounds, and an Ice Wall actually formed above their heads, momentarily blocking the falling boulders for them.

In that brief instant, Feng Lin successfully reached them. She then released her Golden Bell, covering all of them within it!

The rumbling of the collapsing cave was incessant, but the Golden Bell remained completely unshaken.

Feng Lin, still shaken, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. ”Thank goodness I made it... Fellow Daoist Lu, you’re too reckless. Do you have a death wish?”
