--- Chapter 132 ---
"You Are Courting Death!\' Zhong Li furiously roared and looked at Chu Xiaoyu with a fiery gaze.
Zhong Li had activated his martial soul possession, which caused his upper body to become crocodile-like, enhancing his strength and defense to the upper level.
Meanwhile, Yunlong looked at Zhong Li with a weird expression because he finally met one of these people in this world.
\'Ah, that classic line...\' Yunlong thought while covering his mouth to contain his chuckles.
"Lizard..?" Chu Xiaoyu silently commented while looking at Zhong Li, which caused Yunlong to release some of his chuckles.
"Haha... Lizard." Yunlong lightly laughed and Zhong Li spontaneously shifted his gaze at him.
"Zhang\'s family head, that person! He\'s the one who injured Zhong Wei!" The noble lady exclaimed with all of her might, even though clearly Chu Xiaoyu\'s sword had grazed her neck.
"Be Quiet..." Chu Xiaoyu\'s cold voice echoed in the noble lady\'s head.
She slightly pushed her icy sword and an extremely chill fog came out. freezing the noble lady to her bone.
The noble lady couldn\'t even move her mouth or even move her body because of Chu Xiaoyu\'s extreme cold fog.
Zhong Li suddenly moved and walked toward Chu Xiaoyu with a solemnly dark expression. "I\'ll give you a lesson first before that brat." He said.
"Crocodile Punch." He coldly whispered while launching a light punch toward Chu Xiaoyu.
Chu Xiaoyu frowned a little and created an ice sheath from thin white fog, sheathing her icy sword into it.
"Young master, Xiaoyu!" Dugu Yan worriedly looked at the kuudere maid, who calmly entered an Iai stance.
"Don\'t worry, Xiaoyu would be alright," Yunlong answered while looking at his maid.
Chu Xiaoyu\'s yellow eyes shone brightly for a second and she drew her sword out at the speed of lightning.
"Divine Slash."
She slashed her sword into the incoming fist and the blade passed through Zhong Li\'s defense like it was soft tofu.
Zhong Li\'s eyes widened because his entire left arm had become numb.
"T-This.." Zhong Li said while looking at Chu Xiaoyu\'s sword passed through his hand.
Slash!
Zhong Li\'s left hand slid off from his arm in a frozen state, which crumbled as soon as it contacted the floor like a fragile piece of ice.
"M-MY HAND!" Zhong Li looked at his non-existent left hand and roared in agony, even though he couldn\'t feel any pain at all.
"You! I\'ll kill you!" He looked back at Chu Xiaoyu, and his fifth spirit ring, which is surprisingly a black spirit ring, shone brightly.
"Dragon Rage!"
Zhong Li\'s eyes turned crimson, and bright yellow scales grew from his skin, making him more like a thick-scaled lizard man.
Yu Tianheng, who saw Zhong Li\'s transformation, couldn\'t help but frown a little. \'Draconic Transformation..\' He thought.
Roar!
Zhong Li roared and released a yellowish gas out of his mouth.
"Poison..?!" Dugu Yan looked at the yellow gas with a solemn expression.
"You should be proud because you\'d be dead by yellow spring poison!" Zhong Li arrogantly stated.
Chu Xiaoyu released a cold breath of her mouth and the whole area around her became a mini ice field.
The poison gas couldn\'t even reach Chu Xiaoyu because as soon as it entered the mini ice field, it got neutralized into cold air.
"Hahaha! You\'d die next!" Zhong Li, who\'s still not realizing his poison is not working on Xiaoyu, slowly moved his gaze to Yunlong and smiled at him.
"Me? Die?" Yunlong responded with a funny expression.
Yunlong had never heard such a joke in his life because only a titled douluo or above had a chance to threaten him, and this guy was definitely below those realms.
"What a joke." He commented, which triggered Zhong Li\'s pride.
"I changed my mind, I\'ll torture you to death!" Zhong Li coldly stated while inhaling a huge amount of oxygen into his lungs.
Yunlong casually shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Before you were even able to do that, my maid had already killed you."
"Huh, maid?" Zhong Li responded with a confused tone.
"What he talked about is me..." Chu Xiaoyu appeared behind him and elegant yet fastly thrust her icy sword to Zhong Li\'s chest.
"Absolute Defense!" Zhong Li hurriedly shouted and the yellow scales on his body shone with dim brown lights.
\'There is nothing absolute in front of my sword, except for him...\' Chu Xiaoyu calmly thought while pressing her sword through the thick yellow scales.
"Cold Pierce..." Chu Xiaoyu whispered and her sword flashed with sharp intent.
"You cannot pass my defense"
Cough! Blergh!
Zhong Li coughed a mouthful of blood and his martial soul possession disappeared, leaving him in a bad state, where a frozen blade passed through his chest.
"H-How, I\'m a spirit king..." Zhong Li said while looking at Chu Xiaoyu with a terrified gaze.
He fell to the ground while gasping for a moment and looked at a certain man, who he was familiar with, who\'s the auction house\'s head.
"Head Xiao, help me..." Zhong Li quietly requested, only to be responded coldly by Xiao Xun.
"It was your problem, not mine? Deal with it by yourself." Xiao Xun sneered, which caused Zhong Li to choke himself and fainted.
The room became really quiet for a moment because some of them couldn\'t believe an innocent-looking maid defeated the Zhong\'s family head.
\'She defeated a spirit king without even showing us her spirit ring.\' Yu Tianheng thought with a solemn expression.
This kinda reminded Yu Tianheng of a certain black-haired boy they fought a few weeks ago in the spirit arena because not only did that boy defeat them, but his strength was also above his realm.
\'What a bizzare group...\' Yu Tianheng frowned while shifting his gaze to Yunlong, who calmly looked at this scene like it was normal to him.
"Should I kill him..?" Chu Xiaoyu suddenly yet innocently asked with a clueless expression on her face, which caused Yu Tianheng\'s mouth to twitch.
Yu Tianheng is speechless, or to be exact, everyone in the room was speechless when hearing Chu Xiaoyu\'s question.
\'No, don\'t kill him, He is still useful to me.\' Yunlong mentally answered and Chu Xiaoyu nodded her head while pulling her sword.
The sword didn\'t have a single drop of blood and Chu Xiaoyu released her grip, making her martial soul disappear into thin air.
\'Hmm, what should I do now?\' Yunlong suddenly thought while looking at a bunch of terrified nobles.
He smiled a little and cheerfully said, "Let\'s have fun!"
--- [A Few Minutes Later] ---
Yunlong had put everyone in the building into a deep illusion, including Dugu Yan\'s teammates.
\'There is no useful information I got from them.\' Yunlong thought while releasing a helpless sigh.
"Xiao Xun, Do you have a plan to auction something soon?" He suddenly asked while shifting his gaze to his puppet.
"We recently received a rare medicinal herb that could heal any injuries and I planned to auction it two or three days later." Xiao Xun honestly answered while standing beside Yunlong.
"Any injuries?" Yunlong tilted his head while thinking whether this is a coincidence or not because he just beat the main protagonist of this world yesterday.
"Even though it could heal any injuries, truthfully the herb contained a powerful poison, which could kill someone if it doesn\'t process it correctly." Xiao Xun stated.
"Oh, interesting," Yunlong responded with a nod.
"Then, let\'s wait for a few days. I\'ll add a few of my pills to be auctioned." He added while thinking about a certain man, who was probably desperate to save his disciple right now.
