Chapter 1520
Lan Fuozi was completely unfazed, and she circulated her soul power as her entire body became ethereal and insubstantial. It was as if there were another Lan Fuozi looking down from above, ready to dominate the situation if required.
However, the aura that Tang Wulin was releasing was quickly withdrawn, and it was as if nothing had happened.
He released Lan Fuozi's wrist, and said,
"Let's go.
"
After that, he led the way out of the resting area.
Lan Fuozi was rather dumbstruck by this turn of events. She was fully prepared for a battle with Tang Wulin, but he had suddenly withdrawn his aura, and the sight of his departing figure made her feel a little sympathetic for some reason. In particular, the dejection that had appeared in his eyes right before he had departed was tugging on her heartstrings.
Outside the resting area, Lan Fuozi strode over to Tang Wulin, and said,
"Come with me.
"
Tang Wulin followed her to a corner without asking any questions.
"That Lu Yuxing is more powerful than he made himself look in the last round,
" Lan Fuozi said in a concise manner.
"I know, I can tell,
" Tang Wulin replied in an indifferent manner,
"Is that all?
"
Lan Fuozi asked in a cold voice,
"Are you a dog?
"
Tang Wulin's brows furrowed slightly.
Lan Fuozi continued,
"If not, then why are you acting like a mad dog?
"
Tang Wulin was rendered speechless by this.
"I'm not in a good mood today, so I don't want to talk to you. I don't want to raise my hand against a woman, so I'll let you off the hook for grabbing me back there. Thank you for your good intentions, but they're wasted on me. Also, aren't you into women? I have no intention of making you straight, so don't fall in love with me.
"
After that, Tang Wulin immediately departed, while Lan Fuozi's fury bubbled over like a volcanic eruption.
A burst of tremendous force erupted in a small area, instantly enveloping Tang Wulin within it.
Tang Wulin felt as if he had stepped into a deep-sea vortex, and there was fearsome pressure surging toward him from all sides, threatening to pulverize his entire body.
There seemed to be countless tiny vortexes within this one vortex, tearing ferociously at his body from all directions, and there were even sounds of violent crashing waves all around him.
Right at this moment, Tang Wulin's eyes turned a golden color, and a peculiar sensation erupted within his body. His right hand instantly transformed into a golden dragon claw, and a peerless sense of authoritative might surged forth, causing all of the surrounding waves to instantly subside. In the same instant, Lan Fuozi felt as if all of the power within her body had been completely stripped away. Immediately thereafter, Tang Wulin's right hand closed itself around her neck and picked her up from the floor.
Restrict All Laws, Dragon Emperor Break!
The two of them were situated too close together, and Lan Fuozi didn't know that Tang Wulin possessed such an ability, so she immediately fell prey to it.
Tang Wulin's forte lay in melee combat, and this was the resting area, so Lan Fuozi hadn't dared to unleash the full extent of her power. As such, her attack was instantly eradicated by the abridged version of Tang Wulin's Dragon Emperor Break. Electricity coursed through Tang Wulin's golden dragon claw, instantly numbing Lan Fuozi's entire body.
Dragon Emperor Break had the ability to instantly nullify all energy-based attacks, and after making a breakthrough in his spiritual power, he was now able to utilize the attack with even greater proficiency.
On top of that, Lan Fuozi had been blinded by her rage, which was why she had been instantly overwhelmed.
Tang Wulin withdrew his lightning and set Lan Fuozi down on the ground next to the wall as an apologetic look appeared in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I really am in a bad mood today. Thank you for your words of caution.
"
He wanted to distance himself from Lan Fuozi to avoid a repeat of the Dai Yun'er situation, but he was still kind at heart and unable to repress his apology.
He didn't dare to linger in case Lan Fuozi sought revenge after recovering from her paralysis, so he quickly returned to the resting area.
Several seconds later, the numb sensation in Lan Fuozi's body faded as she gasped for air. Why was it that she was completely unable to control her own body just now? What kind of ability had he used? Could it be that her Boundless Vortex had failed to affect him? That was a powerful technique created by her mother! Could it be that he was even more powerful than she had imagined?
It seemed that her concern for him was unnecessary. And what was that about falling in love with him? Ptui! Who would fall in love with a stinky man like him!
The matches for the third round commenced.
Tang Wulin was fighting in the first match of the day; perhaps this was something that the Spirit Pagoda had intentionally arranged.
"It's time for Yu Longyue to take the stage again. I'm sure this is a highly anticipated match for everyone, and we're certainly not wasting any time, seeing as this is the first match of the day. Now then, I'll begin my brief analysis.
" Commentator Ai Fei was busy at work again.
"Yu Longyue has displayed crushing dominance against all of his opponents in the event thus far, and it's undoubtedly the case that he's one of the hot favorites of the competition. His opponent for today, Lu Yuxing, is also quite powerful, but unfortunately for him, he lost in the last round to Qiangu Zhangting. As we all know, Qiangu Zhangting and Yu Longyue are the two biggest favorites of the third group. Qiangu Zhangting has already defeated Lu Yuxing; will Yu Longyue will be able to follow in his example?
"Perhaps we'll be able to get a better gauge of the power comparison between Yu Longyue and Qiangu Zhangting through this match, so I'd advise everyone to pay close attention to this match. The two competitors have entered the venue, and the referees are ready. In reality, the role that referees can play in matches between Titled Douluos is very limited as the clashes are simply far too fierce; we can only rely on the competitors themselves to exercise restraint in order to avoid inflicting unnecessary harm upon their opponents.
"Now then, let's begin the countdown. Five, four, three, two, one, begin!
"
The two competitors were ready to go, and Lu Yuxing naturally wasn't going to treat this match lightly, but at the same time, he had great confidence in himself.
He had suffered a comprehensive defeat at the hands of Qiangu Zhangting, but only because the match had been fixed in advance.
However, he certainly wasn't going to be holding back against Yu Longyue. Defeating Yu Longyue would grant him 10 chances to enter the Myriad Beast Plane and better his relationship with the heir to the Spirit Pagoda chairman, Qiangu Zhangting, so he would be killing two birds with one stone. As such, he was going to defeat Yu Longyue at all costs.
As soon as the commencement of the match was announced, Lu Yuxing instantly transformed into sand that spread in all directions.
