I am strong. How about a chance to spar with Yi Dong?
Hong Yulong, holding the Ruby Dragon Spear, stood behind, likely already aware of last month's events. There was no doubt about his combat strength; after all, Gan Yuan would never joke around with his own life.
Moreover, after the encounter, the remaining parts were with Gao Hong, and I would seek them out.
Gu Hui took out five pieces of Azure Dragon Armor that he had bid on at the Star Picking Auction from the Soul Ring. The other two pieces were currently with Gao Hong.
Why give it to him?
Hong Yulong was somewhat surprised, while Bu Luo showed no expression at all. Perhaps that person simply preferred to maintain a cold and ruthless demeanor.
It suits me, and I deserve it as well.
Thank you.
Hong Yulong cupped his fists and bowed to Gu Weiwei. After this battle, if he could somehow survive in the chaos of Dong Lai, he might just owe a favor to the person before him. Gathering these pieces together would at least provide him with a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact defensive set, allowing him to fight more recklessly without worrying about being harmed by Yi Dong.
After equipping himself, Hong Yulong stepped out of the tent. At that moment, in the sky above, Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, led the Golden Core Cultivators at the Cliff, confronting the Nine Nether Cultivators. Unlike before, Mistake's formation was clearly less arrogant than it had been during previous Yuezi encounters; they had significantly tightened their ranks.
After confirming Gao Hong's position, Hong Yulong glanced back at Gu Yi and then rushed toward Tian Zai. The other Golden Core Cultivators, already prepared for battle, followed closely behind him as they took to the skies to confront Mistake.
Is Gao Hong available?
Hong Yulong stepped lightly on the snow, glancing at Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. Behind him, Gao Hong's firm denial made it clear that this was a battlefield, and there could be no room for personal feelings.
"Brother Hong, can you part with those two pieces of equipment?"
Gao Hong was a person of reason. At this moment, hearing Hong Yulong's admonition and seeing his attire, he immediately understood the purpose behind Hong Yulong's actions.
Without pretense, he took out a Heart Shield Mirror and a helmet from his Soul Ring, which were the remaining two pieces of the Azure Dragon Armor.
"Brother Gao, are you willing to make a sacrifice? As for the rest, we can discuss it after the battle."
"As I wish."
He tossed the two pieces of equipment to Hong Yulong but did not look at him. Instead, he gazed toward the eastern tent. Since the Azure Dragon Armor was there, the Chief of the Academy must also be present. That move of retreating to advance might have caught that person's attention, causing him to lose many spirit stones.
Gu You did not think so. Hong Yulong was unaware that as he donned the equipment, the moment he put on the helmet, his brown armor began to peel away, revealing a layer of jade-red armor beneath. The Heart Shield Mirror gradually displayed three characters different from before: Jade Dragon Armor.
Gu Weiwei, who was walking inside the tent, smiled. He knew that even weapons could have feelings; they would choose their suitable masters to fulfill their life's mission.
The Jade Dragon Armor and Hong Yulong were indeed the most fitting match for Bu Luo. His judgment had always been so accurate. Lost in thought, he couldn't help but want to see Mu Qinglong at this moment; he didn't deny it—Hong Yulong had made a mistake.
But just as he lifted his head, his thoughts were interrupted by Wen Tian descending from above.
"Junior Brother, Sister Summer Solstice has fallen, and Hu Yang has also sacrificed."
Hearing Wen Tian's words, Gu Hu felt his heartbeat slow for a moment, as if everything around him had come to a standstill. He stared blankly at Wen Tian, unable to find his voice for a long time.
Suddenly, he recalled the question he had been pondering for days: why was he alive? He thought that perhaps a person did not need a reason to live. One could live for oneself. What about Xiazhi? What about Hu Yang? Why had they chosen not to live for themselves, but instead to let others dictate their lives?
Living was certainly better than dying, wasn't it? I don't deny that.
What had Xiazhi said?
She had asked him to leave a piece of jade at the Chen Kingdom's outpost and take it to Cangqing Mountain.
Was that all?
She was one of the Light Path Classic's followers.
He knew that.
Could I?
He thought, I don't deny that.
But he felt otherwise.
Many believed he didn't, yet he still thought, I don't deny that.
