59: Chapter 59: Ru Shuang's unparalleled beauty kills Zhao Ritian.

Thousands of miles away, Gu Chen and the other two were flying toward the heart of the Central Plains.

Gu Qingshan glanced back, but saw nothing; however, he still felt uneasy in his heart.

"I have a constant feeling that someone is following us."

Gu Chen also glanced back.

The vast sea of clouds was empty and desolate; there was nothing there!

Gu Chen said, "Perhaps you are just overthinking it, but being cautious is never wrong!"

The three of them accelerated, turning into three streams of light that vanished into the horizon!

Several thousand miles behind them, a few men in black were in hot pursuit!

The leader was at the Eighth Level of the Saint Realm!

He held a bronze mirror in his hand, and on its surface were locked three points of light—these were the Spiritual Qi fluctuations of Gu Chen and his companions!

The leader put away the bronze mirror, "Pursue! Young Master Ritian said, we must see the people alive, or see their corpses!"

The six men in black accelerated their pursuit!

Meanwhile, in another direction, another group of people was pursuing Ru Shuang!

The Taiyin Spirit Body and the Great Sun Sacred Body are mutually complementary for Dual Cultivation!

This was something Zhao Ritian was determined to obtain!

As for Gu Chen, he was merely an ant blocking the path on his road to becoming an Emperor, one that could be crushed with a casual gesture!

The three were just discussing whether Zhao Ritian would take the opportunity to retaliate against them!

Suddenly, a cold voice exploded from above, "You cannot escape!"

All three looked up simultaneously!

Six men in black descended from the sky, surrounding them completely!

The leader was an old man at the Eighth Level of the Saint Realm, while the other five were all at the Peak of the Sovereign Realm!

The aura of the six men intertwined, like an invisible net, pressing down so hard that it made it difficult to breathe!

Gu Chen swept his gaze over the six men, looking at them with disdain, "You were sent by Zhao Ritian, weren't you?"

The leader did not answer, but merely sneered and waved his hand!

The six men approached simultaneously, their Spiritual Qi surging, filled with intense Killing Intent!

Just then, the sound of something tearing through the air came from the sky on the other side!

Ru Shuang was flying from another direction with two maids, followed by several men in black as well!

Upon seeing Gu Chen and the others, their expressions shifted slightly, and they flew over to land beside Gu Chen.

The two groups of men in black converged, surrounding the seven people in the middle!

"Heh! Let's see where you can run to now?"

Zhao Ritian landed expressionlessly, holding a war halberd in his hand; the halberd radiated the terrifying pressure of a quasi-emperor artifact!

He hadn't expected that he would encounter people who weren't afraid of death while participating in this Genius Tournament!

But what surprised him the most was encountering a Taiyin Spirit Body; to him, it was a great tonic!

His Great Sun Sacred Body would soon reach Major Achievement!

Although his mood had been spoiled by three people who weren't afraid of death, overall, there were still gains to be had!

Furthermore, he had grown tired of the maids his father had rewarded him with; taking the Taiyin Spirit Body as a maid to vent his frustrations when annoyed would be a decent choice!

It was quite a good choice, after all!

After all, those on the beauty ranking were all top-tier!

He waved his hand, and a gust of strong wind whistled out, rushing straight toward Ru Shuang's face!

Ru Shuang was unable to dodge in time, and her veil was swept away by the wind, fluttering through the air!

Everyone was stunned at the same time!

The face beneath the veil had skin like congealed fat, features as delicate as a painting, and eyes as clear as autumn water; standing in the wind, she looked like a Fairy fallen into the mortal world!

Gu Chen was dumbfounded!

He had lived for over twenty years and had never seen such a woman!

It was an indescribable beauty!

It wasn't just stunning; it was the kind of beauty that, once seen, made it impossible to look away!

The other two were also dumbfounded; this girl was even more beautiful than the two women by the Old Ancestor's side!

"So exquisite!"

Zhao Ritian was also shaken by Ru Shuang's appearance, but he quickly recovered!

Third place on the beauty ranking; it was truly well-deserved!

Only such a beauty was worthy of his Great Sun Sacred Body!

"Are you willing to follow me and serve by my side as my maid? Once I become an Emperor, I, this Young Master, can make you my Empress!"

Zhao Ritian stared at Ru Shuang, asking expressionlessly!

In an instant, Ru Shuang felt a wave of nausea!

Looking at Zhao Ritian's arrogant face, Ru Shuang felt her stomach churn!

Empress?

Who would care about that!

She subconsciously took a step back, her palms sweating!

The two maids stood in front of her, but their legs were shaking; after all, the disparity in strength was vast!

Just then, an old and weak voice suddenly resounded in Ru Shuang's mind, "Girl, do not be afraid! There should be others behind him; when the time comes, Grandfather will control your body and take you away from here! Afterward, Grandfather may fall into a deep slumber, so you must be careful in everything!"

That's right!

There was a Soul inside Ru Shuang's body!

And this Soul was none other than her grandfather!

The reason Ru Shuang was here was precisely because her father wanted her to marry a quasi-emperor expert who had lived for ten thousand years!

He claimed that her Physique would be helpful to that expert!

Yet he wanted to sacrifice her, a young girl in her twenties!

That guy was ancient!

How could she possibly agree to such a thing!

She had her grandfather come to reason with him, but she hadn't expected that her grandfather would also be imprisoned by her father, leaving only a remnant Soul attached to the jade pendant within her body!

She did not want to be with that kind of ten-thousand-year-old geezer!

She fled the Family overnight, bringing her grandfather's remnant Soul to participate in the Genius Tournament!

She only wanted to win the reward so that her grandfather could reshape his Physical Body!

But she hadn't expected that luck would not favor her, and she encountered Zhao Ritian, who coveted her Physique!

She knew that Zhao Ritian was extremely promiscuous; how could such a person be worthy of the man in her heart!

But the current situation was not optimistic for her at all!

However, looking at the three people beside her, they weren't nervous at all; could it be that these three had some trump card?

"Grandfather, I will leave the control to you in a moment!"

"Understood! I am waiting for an opportunity!"

Ru Shuang took a deep breath, suppressing her churning emotions, and looked coldly at Zhao Ritian, "Dream on!"

Zhao Ritian's smile froze on his face, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, "You refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit?"

He raised his war halberd, and the pressure of the quasi-emperor artifact rushed toward them, "I, this Young Master, gave you face, but you didn't want it! Then don't blame me for being impolite!"

The men in black behind him stepped forward in unison, their Spiritual Qi surging, filled with intense Killing Intent!

Ru Shuang's face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth, staring intently!

In her mind, her grandfather's voice resounded once more, "Girl, get ready!"

On the other side! Gu Chen and his two companions made their move!

Gu Chen gripped his sword and charged forward, taking the initiative to attack Zhao Ritian!

"Want to die? This Young Master will grant your wish!" Zhao Ritian sneered and leveled his war halberd!

The men in black behind him were just about to step forward, but Zhao Ritian raised his hand to stop them, "Don't move! This Young Master will play with him personally and let him know what the Great Sun Sacred Body is!"

The men in black retreated, and Ru Shuang's grandfather also called for a halt in her mind, his aged voice carrying a trace of surprise, "Wait, this kid is not simple."

Boom!

The war halberd and the longsword clashed, and a terrifying wave of Spiritual Qi exploded, cutting the surrounding trees in half at the waist!

After these few exchanges, Zhao Ritian had not gained any advantage!

Zhao Ritian's expression shifted slightly!

He was at the Third Level of the Sovereign Realm, possessed the Great Sun Sacred Body, and held a quasi-emperor artifact; how could he not have gained any advantage?

Gu Qingshan and Li Shuangxu exchanged a glance and charged forward!

"Great Dragon Claw Hand!"

Gu Qingshan suddenly extended a giant hand, slapping it toward Zhao Ritian's head!

Zhao Ritian hurriedly defended!

It wasn't over yet; another attack followed closely behind!

It was Li Shuangxu!

"Damn ants!"

Zhao Ritian shouted loudly, "Sun!"

The Great Sun Sacred Body was fully activated!

Gu Chen did not give him time to think and immediately unleashed the Myriad Swords Return to Origin that Jian Wuji had taught him!

"Sword, come!"

An overwhelming number of swords attacked, making it difficult for him to defend for a moment!

He took out his war halberd, intending to rely on the quasi-emperor artifact to withstand it, but he hadn't expected that Gu Chen would shatter his quasi-emperor artifact with a single sword strike!

It just shattered, just like that!!

Boom!

Wherever the sword light passed, it was like a falling meteor!

"Enough!"

Boom!

A powerful and incomparable aura appeared!

It was an expert at the Peak of the Eternal Realm!
