Chapter 1050: Chapter 660: Snake
Watching this scene, Wu Dao’s eyes narrowed slightly. After all, he was from a big family and could naturally sense that the clan leader and others in front of him were no ordinary people.
“Brother Liu, aren’t you being a bit unfair? You have all these expert friends, yet you kept it hidden from me all this way.” Wu Dao said to Liu Hun, somewhat annoyed.
“They don’t have much to do with me; Poison Queen, it’s up to you next.” Liu Hun shook his head, without explaining much, and then instructed the Poison Queen beside him.
Upon hearing this, the Poison Queen’s lips curled into a smile, and a charming expression instinctively appeared on her face.
“Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, nobody can take your Xuan Fire.” The Poison Queen chuckled lightly.
As the Poison Queen’s words fell, she flicked her palm, and a long whip was directly summoned from her waist, then started whipping in the air above the crowd.
Each swing of the long whip emitted a crisp sound in the air. Besides being an expert with poison, her strength was not weak. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have easily come to this place to carry out a mission.
It’s just that the Poison Queen was a bit unlucky, encountering Liu Hun, her nemesis. Otherwise, she might have been the ultimate winner in the end.
“It’s poison, everyone be careful!” In the midst of the battle in the molten lava, someone shouted, and then everyone noticed the emerald green gases wafting down from the air.
“Hold your breath!” Qin Tao glanced at the emerald green gases hovering mid-air, his expression changing slightly, and with a hint of resentment in his eyes, he looked at Liu Hun and ordered his men.
Qin Tao did not expect Liu Hun to pull such a move, especially at such a critical moment.
However, he couldn’t blame Liu Hun either; since he had acted first, Liu Hun was just retaliating, making it all fair.
“Do you really think holding your breath will make a difference? My poison is not to be trifled with.” The Poison Queen said disdainfully as she watched everyone stop moving.
With the Poison Queen’s words, as the emerald green gases touched everyone’s weapons, there were instant cries of anguish from all.
In the next moment, these people began to rapidly rot all over their bodies.
In a very short time, nearly half of the people in the scene died in the Poison Queen’s mist, eventually falling into the molten lava.
Those with strong ability, however, wrapped themselves completely with their inner strength, so were not affected at all. Even so, the Poison Queen’s move shocked everyone.
“Lucky I subdued you beforehand, otherwise we would all likely suffer.” Watching this scene, even Liu Hun was somewhat amazed.
If the Poison Queen were his enemy, they might have suffered a reversal in fate, but fortunately, this was all just a hypothetical scenario.
“Aren’t there more of these poisonous mists? Keep going, best if they all die from the poison. Then no one will fight us for these things.” Wu Dao watched this scene excitedly and said.
Upon hearing Wu Dao’s words, the Poison Queen, seeing Liu Hun looking her way, couldn’t help but smile wryly and said helplessly, “The creation process for such poison is extremely complicated. I spent three years making just a little. If it weren’t for the special circumstances this time, I wouldn’t use it so easily.”
The Poison Queen’s words were true, she wasn’t just helping Liu Hun. If these people really took the Xuan Fire, it would then be more difficult for them to seize Chi You’s weapon because the Xuan Fire is the key to unlocking the Chiyou Weapon.
If Chi You’s weapon fell into someone else’s hands, the Poison Queen would rather it finally end up in Liu Hun’s hands; at least they were currently grasshoppers on the same rope.
“Liu Hun, Wu Dao, aren’t you both a bit too excessive?” Qin Tao stopped his actions, standing in the central position of the molten lava, his eyes flashing coldly as he stared at Liu Hun and Wu Dao questioning them.
Qin Tao was no fool, so he could naturally see that the Poison Queen was now likely colluding with the two.
“Excessive? Qin Tao, don’t you feel ashamed saying that? Earlier, when you forced Brother Liu to scout ahead, why didn’t you call that excessive? Just now we found Xuan Fire first, yet you were the first to try and seize it. Isn’t that excessive?” Wu Dao retorted immediately, irritated.
Facing Wu Dao’s words, Qin Tao did not respond.
Everyone only thinks from their own perspective. If they do something wrong to others, they automatically ignore it; but if others wrong them, they’ll be dissatisfied.
And at this moment, Qin Tao was just like that. He didn’t care about what he’d just done; he only cared about what Liu Hun and Wu Dao had done to him.
“Since that’s the case, let’s rely on our own abilities next. Just as well to clear out some annoying little characters.” Qin Tao said coldly to Wu Dao and Liu Hun.
“Alright, then let’s all rely on our skills for the competition!” Liu Hun finally spoke up.
After Liu Hun’s words fell, he nodded to Lao Bai and the others beside him, and then everyone quickly explored towards the molten lava.
Although the current situation was somewhat different from what Liu Hun had anticipated, as long as there was no danger in the molten lava, it was considered a good thing for Liu Hun.
If something did appear in the molten lava, they would have a hard time escaping.
Just when a few people were halfway there, Qin Tao and the others had already reached the Xuan Fire. At this moment, as Qin Tao was about to reach out to take the Xuan Fire, suddenly, the originally calm molten lava began to churn violently.
Waves of heat pounded against them, and bubbles occasionally emerged from the lava, causing everyone to be cautious.
Otherwise, if the lava splashed onto them, it would be quite tragic, as the temperature of the lava in such a place was extremely high.
“Be careful!” At this moment, Liu Hun didn’t care about Qin Tao trying to take the Xuan Fire; his eyes were fixed intently around them, and he said to everyone in a deep voice.
Hearing Liu Hun’s words, Wu Dao instantly became anxious, quickly rushing towards Qin Tao while not forgetting to say to Liu Hun, “Be careful of what? If we delay any longer, that bastard will snatch the Xuan Fire!”
As Wu Dao finished speaking, he had already reached Qin Tao’s front. Just as Qin Tao was about to take the Xuan Fire, he sensed a force coming from behind and moved, directly avoiding Wu Dao’s attack.
“Wu Dao, you lost to me last time; do you want to experience the taste of failure again this time?” Qin Tao’s eyes flashed with cold light as he looked at Wu Dao in front of him and said coldly.
Having come here, both Qin Tao and Wu Dao understood well that even if one of them died in this godforsaken place, people from their family clans still wouldn’t intervene much.
After all, everyone who came here was here to ultimately compete for the Chiyou Weapon. If they died here, they could only blame their own misfortune.
“Last time was last time; this time is not necessarily the same!” Wu Dao’s face showed a sinister coldness as Qin Tao brought up this matter again.
With a flick of his wrist, a soft sword appeared directly in his hand, and then he fiercely stabbed at Qin Tao.
Facing Wu Dao’s attack, Qin Tao dared not be careless, as he was very clear about Wu Dao’s strength. The reason he was able to defeat Wu Dao before was partly due to luck.
If they were really to engage in a life-and-death fight, it was uncertain who would live and who would die in the end.
As Liu Hun looked at the battle between Wu Dao and Qin Tao, he furrowed his brows tightly, took a deep breath, and kept scanning the molten lava around them with his eyes.
Just when Liu Hun was focusing on the lava, a foreign middle-aged man brandished a large knife and fiercely attacked Liu Hun.
Sensing the wind from beside him, a flash of murderous intent flickered in Liu Hun’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but mutter in a low voice, “Courting death!”
Although he appeared extremely weak before, Liu Hun had almost recovered after all this time.
With a flip of his hand, a dagger landed directly in his palm. Without even looking, he struck towards the figure beside him.
“Clang!” A loud sound resonated in the arena, and as soon as the crisp sound fell, the foreign middle-aged man who had just ambushed Liu Hun felt a shock in his tiger’s mouth. A terrifying counterforce directly disarmed his large knife, causing it to fall into the molten lava.
“You…weren’t you injured by those heart-eating worms before? How could you…” When Liu Hun turned around, the foreign middle-aged man’s face turned unsightly as he asked Liu Hun.
“That was just now; I have almost recovered. I’ve mentioned before that my body is somewhat special. Since you took the initiative to cause trouble, don’t blame me!” Upon finishing, Liu Hun wielded the dagger in his hand and slashed directly at the middle-aged man.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man’s face changed slightly, and he moved, trying to evade Liu Hun’s attack.
The next moment, just as he dodged Liu Hun’s attack, without even having time to celebrate, a black footprint came flying towards his face.
This unfortunate foreign middle-aged man didn’t even have time to react when his large pancake-like face was kicked by Liu Hun, and his figure instantly fell towards the molten lava.
“Crack!” Watching the foreign middle-aged man’s figure slowly fall into the molten lava, there was no trace of compassion on Liu Hun’s face.
“Hmph! If you want to kill others, then be prepared to be killed yourself!” Liu Hun murmured coldly with a hint of chill, looking at the guy in front of him.
