Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears - Chapter 244 - 241: Mu Linyuan Goes Completely Mad, and Even the Empress Battle Armor Can’t Hold On
Chapter 244: Chapter 241: Mu Linyuan Goes Completely Mad, and Even the Empress Battle Armor Can’t Hold On
Gu Yuexi shook her head helplessly. ’There’s nothing to be done. That damned mosquito can use Instant Teleportation, so I’ll just let him be.’
She flew toward the exit and soon arrived near the Wormhole.
At this moment, the eye-like Wormhole was about to close completely, with only a sliver of an opening left.
Gu Yuexi scanned her surroundings but saw no one else.
’By now, the other contestants should have all left.’
’I wonder how the other contestants from Great Xia did. But even if they came up empty-handed, the Crystal Cores I’ve gathered should be more than enough to crush the Yue Country and Philippines teams.’
Just as Gu Yuexi was waiting for Chu Sheng, a Mental Power, incomparably sharp and condensed like a needle, suddenly shot out from the shadows beside her, stabbing toward her Sea of Consciousness without any warning!
The attack was insidious, cunning, and exceptionally vicious, aimed directly at destroying her Sea of Consciousness!
Gu Yuexi’s brow furrowed slightly.
She didn’t turn around, but a solid, thick spiritual barrier instantly formed outside her Sea of Consciousness.
PSSH!
The Spiritual Spike slammed into the barrier, piercing it with a loud crack. Gu Yuexi was forced to erect another defensive barrier to finally block the attack.
Then, she slowly turned, her cold eyes gazing toward the shadows where the attack had originated.
“Come out, you coward who hides in the shadows.”
“Mu Family, is this all you’ve got?”
That’s right. From the attack just now, Gu Yuexi had already identified the ambusher.
It was none other than Mu Linyuan.
The fact that Mu Linyuan had dared to enter the Secret Realm with her had always struck Gu Yuexi as strange.
’To think this guy has been lying in ambush here all this time.’
As expected, Mu Linyuan slowly walked out from the shadows, his face filled with unconcealable, venomous hatred.
“Gu Yuexi, you’re not leaving this Secret Realm today!”
As he walked, his aura surged, shockingly reaching the Sixth-Grade Late Stage.
“Heh heh, didn’t see that coming, did you?”
“The tables have turned!”
“Now, I am at the Sixth-Grade Late Stage Realm!”
“Gu Yuexi, didn’t you want to kill me back then? Too bad. Today, it’s my turn!”
By forcibly raising his cultivation with the Divine Soul Power of a Mu Family Elder, Mu Linyuan’s realm had shot directly to the Sixth-Grade Late Stage. However, this was not without a cost. The price was that future advancements would be extremely difficult.
As Mu Linyuan spoke, he stared intently at Gu Yuexi, trying to find a look of shock or fear on her face.
However, Gu Yuexi merely gave him a cool glance, her eyes looking at him as if he were a buzzing fly, filled with undisguised contempt.
“Sixth-Grade? A loser is still a loser.”
This casual remark completely ignited Mu Linyuan’s fury!
“You’re courting death!”
He roared, and the Mental Power of a Sixth-Grade Late Stage cultivator poured out without reservation. Countless twisted spiritual tentacles, like frenzied pythons, coiled toward Gu Yuexi from all directions.
Gu Yuexi moved to dodge, but the spiritual tentacles were incredibly difficult to deal with!
After all, it was the Mental Power of a Sixth-Grade Late Stage cultivator. Gu Yuexi was only a Fourth-Grade, two major realms below him, so handling it wasn’t so easy.
Seeing this, the excitement in Mu Linyuan’s eyes intensified.
“How about it? Never thought you’d see the day you’d be suppressed by me, did you?”
“Future Empress, what’s so great about that! Kill me?”
“As if you’re worthy?!”
Mu Linyuan’s attacks grew even more frantic as he vented all the humiliation he had suffered recently!
Entangled by the spiritual tentacles, Gu Yuexi’s expression grew increasingly impatient. She suddenly stopped and calmly raised her hand.
The next second, a brilliant starlight erupted from within her!
Accompanied by a series of crisp metallic sounds, the Empress Battle Armor instantly covered her entire body.
Her eyes turned cold and indifferent. With a slight shift in her thoughts…
VWOOM! An invisible yet powerful ring of Spiritual Shock instantly spread out.
The wildly dancing spiritual tentacles, as if meeting their nemesis, completely disintegrated the moment they touched the Star Aura!
PFFT!
Mu Linyuan was instantly hit by a spiritual backlash and violently spat out a mouthful of blood.
He staggered backward, his eyes filled with horror and incomprehension.
’Impossible!’
’How can she be this strong?’
’She’s only a Fourth-Grade, while I’m already at the Sixth-Grade Late Stage! Even for the Future Empress, it should be impossible to cross the huge chasm of two major realms!’
Gu Yuexi walked toward him step by step. Clad in her Battle Armor, she looked like an Empress who held the power of life and death, her gaze icy cold.
“You should have died long ago.”
“You should be content with the extra time you’ve had.”
Gu Yuexi’s tone was calm, as if she were merely stating a fact.
’Killing Mu Linyuan was also one of my goals for coming to Hong Kong Island.’
’I might as well finish the job today.’
Feeling Gu Yuexi’s cold killing intent, Mu Linyuan retreated a few steps. Suddenly, he snapped his head up. There was no fear on his face, only an even more twisted and crazed smile.
“Hahaha, Gu Yuexi, do you really think you can kill me?”
“You couldn’t kill me a few months ago, and you still can’t kill me now.”
“You offended my Mu Family. The one who’s going to die is you!”
As he spoke, Mu Linyuan suddenly clutched his head, his face contorting in extreme pain.
Within his Sea of Consciousness, the Emperor-level Divine Soul Power left behind by Mu Cangxuan finally activated completely, holding nothing back!
Even though Mu Linyuan knew the price might be the complete destruction of his Sea of Consciousness, he didn’t care!
Soon, his aura surged again, skyrocketing from the Sixth-Grade Late Stage to the Peak of Sixth-Grade… and finally, he even broke through the massive chasm between the Middle-Grade Realm and the High Grade Realm! He forcibly broke through to the Seventh-Grade Realm!
One must understand that although the Peak of Sixth-Grade and the Seventh-Grade Early Stage are only one minor realm apart, the gap between them is, in a sense, no less than that of an entire Grand Realm! This was the same principle as breaking through from Third-Grade to Fourth-Grade.
From the Low Grade Realm to the Middle-Grade Realm, from the Middle-Grade Realm to the High Grade Realm, from the High Grade Realm to the King-level… it was always like this!
Mu Linyuan had now fallen into a complete frenzy. Even after his aura broke through to the Seventh-Grade, it didn’t stop!
Seventh-Grade Early Stage, Seventh-Grade Middle Stage, Seventh-Grade Late Stage!
BOOM!!!
At that moment, Mu Linyuan’s Mental Power had temporarily reached the terrifying level of the Seventh-Grade Late Stage!
Gu Yuexi was only at the Fourth-Grade Middle Stage. The current Mu Linyuan completely crushed Gu Yuexi by three whole major realms.
Between them lay the immense chasm separating the Middle-Grade Realm and the High Grade Realm!
Faced with such a colossal disparity, even Gu Yuexi, clad in the Empress Battle Armor, showed a solemn expression.
’She truly hadn’t expected the Mu Family would be willing to pay the price of an Emperor Realm expert’s fall from grace, as well as the complete crippling of a direct family descendant, just to assassinate her.’
“Gu Yuexi!”
A faint black gas swirled around Mu Linyuan’s body, and his voice was distorted and hoarse from the surge of power.
“Now, it’s my turn to kill you!”
Without any more nonsense, Mu Linyuan attacked instantly.
A terrifying Spiritual Power, with no discernible trajectory, struck Gu Yuexi’s body directly.
CLANG!
The Empress Battle Armor let out a heavy hum. Gu Yuexi’s reaction was incredibly fast, and she instantly enveloped herself in a Divine Thought Cage.
But!
The difference in pure power was just too great!
The Divine Thought Cage resisted for less than two seconds before it shattered violently.
Gu Yuexi’s face turned deathly pale in an instant, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.
Mu Linyuan rose into the air, hovering high above as he looked down on Gu Yuexi.
“Die!”
His aura condensed once more to its peak, as if gathering all the resentment he had felt from the day he was born until now!
An illegitimate son, ignored, who tried to prove himself countless times only to fail repeatedly.
His last chance to prove himself had been in the Three-Province Joint Examination, but he had failed again, and was even nearly killed by Gu Yuexi.
Therefore, his only obsession now was to kill the woman before him, Gu Yuexi!
This moment was perhaps the final highlight of his life. By recklessly activating the Emperor-level Divine Soul Power like this, it wouldn’t be long before his Sea of Consciousness completely collapsed, or even exploded on the spot!
But precisely because of this, at this moment, his power level was still rising, soaring to the Peak of Seventh-Grade!
He was on the verge of reaching Eighth-Grade!
And then… he made his move!
