Chapter 146 He's in a hurry to play mahjong!
The sudden appearance of the goddess of beauty plunged the entire ruins into a moment of deathly silence.
All eyes were drawn to the woman whose beauty seemed otherworldly.
Who is she?
True Dragon Temple, disciples of the Ling generation?
When did Zhenlong Temple produce such a person?!
The vast majority of people present were completely blank-minded and utterly bewildered.
Only three people knew about this.
Lu Yuan.
Shen Shulan.
And... Shen Jizhou!
There's no need to elaborate on Lu Yuan and Shen Shulan.
The two of them had experienced it together at Luoyan Slope, and Shen Shulan saw the whole thing, including what was going on with the goddess.
Shen Shulan was shocked and incredulous, staring at the familiar goddess of beauty before him, he murmured in a daze:
"How could it be her..."
And Shen Jizhou, the number one player from outside the Great Wall who just won a fierce battle.
The scabs on his face seemed to crack slightly due to the stiffness of his muscles.
Shen Jizhou was only stunned for a moment before he instantly knew who this exquisitely perfect woman was.
Shen Jizhou was puzzled as to why this goddess of beauty had suddenly appeared here, especially as a disciple of the True Dragon Temple. His daughter hadn't mentioned anything about how close the goddess of beauty was to Lu Yuan when she spoke of her before.
Even his own daughter said that this goddess seemed to pose a danger to Lu Yuan.
I said I'd see if I could help.
And now...
Objects transformed into spirits!
It's her!
After her daughter returned from Luoyan Slope, she described in detail the terrifying deity that was woven from countless resentments and objects!
Why is she here?!
Moreover, he descended as a disciple of the True Dragon Temple...
This means that...
A cold, absurd, yet deadly thought, like a black lightning bolt, instantly pierced through Shen Jizhou's mind!
He abruptly turned his head, his gaze passing over his daughter who was supporting him, and over the concerned doormen.
It was firmly fixed on Lu Yuan, who was slumped over beside the boulder in the distance!
There.
Lu Yuanzheng slowly raised his head.
His face, pale as paper and covered in blood, showed no trace of defeat or resentment.
Instead, a smile appeared.
boom!!!
It felt as if a million thunderbolts were exploding in Shen Jizhou's brain at the same time, and the blood in his body seemed to freeze at that moment!
He finally understood.
He understood everything!
Why did Lu Yuan say that inexplicable thing just now? He lost, but he didn't win either!
That's right.
From the very beginning, Lu Yuan never thought he could defeat the four Celestial Venerables on his own.
maybe.
Perhaps it was thanks to the various top-tier magical artifacts and other items provided by the system that Lu Yuan was able to launch a surprise attack and win.
but……
How could you win four?
Many things, once used, will no longer be effective once the other person is on guard.
Just like this match against Shen Jizhou.
Just as Shen Jizhou said, even if Lu Yuan could beat Shen Jizhou...
How can Lu Yuan possibly defeat He Ming and He Cheng?!
Given this situation, neither He Ming nor He Cheng will waste words with Lu Yuan from the start.
I will never play that game with Lu Yuan using only one hand again.
They must first knock Lu Yuan out of the ring before they talk about anything else.
Therefore, Lu Yuan has no chance of winning.
Lu Yuan can win once at most, but he will never win the entire "Quest for Heaven Challenge"!
of course……
The current situation is that they haven't won even once.
Therefore, for Lu Yuan to get the title of Heavenly Venerable for the old man on his own is simply impossible!
This is absolutely impossible.
Even if Lu Yuan didn't choose Shen Jizhou, but instead chose the four weakest Celestial Venerables of the present to participate in the "Challenge of Heaven", he still wouldn't be able to win!
Aside from the fact that the difference in strength is too great, a surprise attack can only be effective once at most.
Another point is that there simply isn't enough time.
The rule of the "Challenge to Heaven" is to take on challenges consecutively.
Today it's Shen Jizhou, tomorrow it's Crane Patrol Heavenly Venerable, the day after tomorrow it's Crane Heavenly Venerable, and the last day it's Crane Cheng.
Even if Lu Yuan wins today, things are already like this.
The challenge continues tomorrow, regardless of whether you've recovered or not, no matter what, tomorrow is the day to keep going.
If you cannot continue the challenge, then the challenge has failed.
Of course, on the second day, Master Crane's Journey will go easy on him, will not fight, and will directly admit defeat.
However, given Lu Yuan's situation...
Even if I rested for ten days, let alone one day, I still wouldn't be able to get on!
So even if Lu Yuan chooses the four weakest opponents, he still can't win.
not to mention……
Lu Yuan didn't want to choose that option either.
Lu Yuan is determined to choose Shen Jizhou!!
There is no other reason, only one reason.
There are only seven Celestial Venerables.
If you can win the "Challenge to Heaven", you can choose to replace a contemporary Heavenly Venerable!
And the selection can only be made from the four people who successfully completed the challenge!
What Lu Yuan wants is to replace Shen Jizhou in the position of Heavenly Venerable!
and so……
Lu Yuan is determined to choose Shen Jizhou!!
Shen Jizhou must be chosen!
It wasn't targeting Shen Jizhou as a person; Lu Yuan was targeting Shen Jizhou's set of rules!
Since we have to choose Shen Jizhou and win this "Challenge to Heaven", then...
These two things combined are absolutely, positively impossible to accomplish!
Lu Yuan knew about this from the very beginning, he was clear about it!
Therefore, from the very beginning, Lu Yuan's goal was not to win against Shen Jizhou!
Lu Yuan's goal was to use all his strength to weaken Shen Jizhou as much as possible, to deplete his true energy and exhaust his spirit!
The reason Lu Yuan dared to do this was because he had studied the "Challenge to Heaven" for a long time.
One of the rules is that you can make the "Asking the Heavens" choice as long as you have a thousand jade beans.
However, as long as the "Challenge to Heaven" is carried out, the seven Celestial Venerables of the present age must accept it!
No postponement, no rescheduling, no refusing or delaying for any reason!
The ancestor who designed the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony hundreds of years ago set this rule to prevent some Heavenly Venerables from delaying or refusing to fight for various reasons. After all, without this mandatory rule, the "Challenge to Heaven" would be meaningless.
The current Celestial Venerable can use various reasons to avoid engaging in battle.
My legs hurt today, my back hurts tomorrow, and my waist hurts the day after tomorrow.
If we delay by one day today, we'll delay by ten days tomorrow.
If we keep dragging this out, what's the point of the "Challenge to Heaven"?
Are they going to postpone it until the next session is almost here?
Therefore, the rules of the "Challenge to Heaven" are that anyone who disagrees with the seven chosen celestial beings can apply to challenge them as long as they have a thousand jade beans.
These seven contemporary celestial beings could not refuse the challenge for any reason.
Even if you're half-buried in the ground, even if you're like Shen Jizhou now, let alone facing challenges, you'd need someone to help you stand up.
Even so, we must accept the challenge.
If you don't accept the answer, then you lose immediately!
As for...
Wouldn't that be unfair?
If someone has this kind of thinking, then they're destined to be a worrier.
The challenger must challenge four Celestial Venerables in a row to be considered successful. Isn't this too unfair to the challenger?
Moreover, challengers need to challenge four Celestial Venerables consecutively to succeed, and they also need a thousand Jade Beans to apply for a challenge. This was specifically designed to prevent a series of challenges.
Therefore, this rule is fair!
From the very beginning, what Lu Yuan wanted to do was not to beat Shen Jizhou!
Instead, he did everything in his power to make Shen Jizhou the way he is now!
That way, the goddess of beauty will have a chance to easily win over Shen Jizhou!
From what I've seen so far, Lu Yuanqian's work is excellent!
She was so beautiful that she almost killed Shen Jizhou!
Of course, it wasn't just Lu Yuan's scheming; Shen Jizhou was also simply too arrogant.
They didn't take Lu Yuan seriously at all.
He immediately gave Lu Yuan three moves, and again he used only one hand.
Most importantly, they gave Lu Yuan three moves in the end, and didn't rush to throw Lu Yuan out of the ring.
Instead, they wanted to see what top-tier magical artifact Lu Yuan could produce, so they kept delaying.
If it weren't for these reasons, Lu Yuan would have had a real hard time getting to where he is today.
Of course, it could also be said that Lu Yuan had planned all of this.
At the very least, Shen Jizhou's fascination with top-tier magical artifacts was something Lu Yuan had planned in.
Given the current situation, how should I put it?
The goddess of beauty doesn't need to do anything; she can just blow Shen Jizhou off the stage with a breath.
Of course, there are no more tournaments now.
With the arrival of the goddess of beauty, Shen Jizhou completely understood and realized all of this.
Shen Jizhou's face was now filled with horror.
Shen Jizhou never dreamed that he...
I've been being schemed against by Lu Yuan from the very beginning...
I was actually dragged down to my death by Lu Yuan!
They were so weak they could barely stand!
then……
The real killer has appeared!
"You're right, I lost..."
"My 'Challenge to Heaven' has come to an end..."
"but·……"
Lu Yuan stared at Shen Jizhou's face, which went from astonishment to horror, and finally turned ashen. His voice suddenly rose.
"...But this matter of me snatching the Celestial Venerable for my old man has only just begun!"
puff
A mouthful of blood, which he could no longer suppress, gushed out of Shen Jizhou's mouth!
His body swayed violently, and if Shen Shulan hadn't held him tightly, he probably would have fallen to the ground again.
At this moment, Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable, who was standing next to Lu Yuan, was dumbfounded.
Crane Celestial Venerable looked at Lu Yuan, then at the woman who emerged from the ruins and light, making the entire world pale in comparison.
The brain shut down completely.
no! ! !
What's going on?!
Who is this woman?!
Moreover... he claims to be...
Zhenlong Temple?
Ling generation?
Ling Mei? ? !
Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable frantically searched his memory bank and found that there was something terrifying beyond measure in the True Dragon Temple, but it was an evil spirit!
This thing in front of me...
She possessed not a trace of evil; on the contrary, she was so clean that she seemed otherworldly.
That aura was pure and vast, carrying a kind of indifference that looked down upon all living beings.
ha??!!
For a moment, Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable felt a throbbing pain in his head.
What the hell is all this nonsense?!
Where did Lu Yuan find such a beautiful and capable woman?!
Moreover, the key point is...
How does this guy always manage to get these kinds of women to help him?!
With the appearance of the goddess of beauty, the entire ruins fell into an eerie silence.
The wind stopped.
The dust seemed to solidify in the air.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on that figure, unable to look away even for a moment.
She was standing there.
I stood on the edge of the ruins, at the boundary between the afternoon sun and the dust that filled the air.
Sunlight streamed down from behind her, gilding her with a hazy golden edge, yet unable to penetrate the thin, almost imperceptible mist surrounding her. The mist was so faint, almost invisible, yet undeniably present, separating her from the world by an unseen distance. Her beauty was indescribable.
Any attempt to describe it in language is a desecration.
It was a beauty that transcended words.
It is a beauty that no mortal woman could possess, a beauty that no fairy in a painting could attain, but...
The beauty of the gods.
It is so perfect that it is almost unreal, and so exquisite that it is like a sculpture.
Yet it stood there so real, so real, that it made your heart pound.
Her eyes were lowered, and her eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her eyelids.
Her lips were slightly pursed, without a smile or expression, only a detached indifference that looked down upon all living beings.
She just stood there quietly.
But on the ruins, everyone's breath stopped at that moment.
The goddess of beauty was moved.
She took a step, one step at a time, walking towards Lu Yuan.
Every step he took felt like stepping on the hearts of everyone.
Her voice made everyone's heart contract heavily, one beat after another, in sync with her rhythm.
Lu Yuan watched quietly as the goddess of beauty walked towards him.
In truth, Lu Yuan felt that the old man was to be credited for this whole affair.
The old man took her as his disciple so that the goddess could freely enter and leave the True Dragon Temple...
This can simply be called the greatest operation in the history of the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony!
The rules of the "Challenge to Heaven" have been explained countless times before, the most important thing is that you need to have Jade Beans.
Without a thousand jade beans, one cannot participate in the "Challenge to Heaven".
The goddess of beauty became the old man's disciple, thus becoming a disciple of the True Dragon Temple.
As a disciple of Zhenlong Temple, you can use the jade beans obtained by Zhenlong Temple at the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony to make challenges.
This one rule alone has completely patched up the last remaining loophole in the "Challenge to Heaven" rules!
The old man was great! No need for further explanation!
Finally, the goddess of beauty gracefully approached Lu Yuan.
Stop.
Bow down.
Looking down at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan raised his head and looked at her.
Eyes facing each other.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
No one dared to speak.
No one dared to move.
Only the afternoon wind gently blew across the ruins, stirring up fine dust.
The goddess of beauty leaned down slightly, extended her jade-white hand, and gently, gently, placed it on Lu Yuan's head.
Her movements were very light and gentle, as if she were stroking an injured cub.
Then, she parted her red lips slightly.
Her voice was clear and cool like an icy spring, ethereal like heavenly music, yet it carried an indescribable tenderness:
Are you alright?
Lu Yuan looked up at the goddess and said:
"Don't worry, Zhenjie is just a bit depleted. He's not seriously injured or broken. He'll be fine after a few more days of rest."
The goddess nodded seriously, her slender fingers gently poking Lu Yuan's cheek, her tone tinged with anxiety.
"If there's nothing else, hurry up!"
"Hurry up and get them started, we're one player short for our three-player game, Mikoto and Takumi are waiting!"
"I'm in a hurry to get back and play mahjong!"
Lu Yuan: ………
"Thousand Miles!"
