My Pretty Campus Queen

At this moment, Wu Guangzu desperately deflected the incoming arrows. After landing, he took a few steps back and vigilantly watched ahead. Seeing Zhao An mount a horse, leading over a dozen people ready to gallop away, Wu Guangzu instantly sensed trouble and planned to step forward to block.

But Kuang Shengtian wouldn’t allow it. He soared through the air and then swung his Long Sword, a powerful Sword Qi rushing towards Wu Guangzu.

Just earlier, after exchanging a move with Kuang Shengtian, Wu Guangzu felt that Kuang Shengtian’s strength had increased significantly, though he himself wasn’t weak, having inherited Fang Yan’s lifetime cultivation.

Yet, this Kuang Shengtian seemed a bit stronger than him. When the Phantom Divine Fist and his Phantom Tyrant Saber clashed, he was sent retreating quite far, highlighting Kuang Shengtian’s formidable Inner Strength.

At this moment, Wu Guangzu had no intention of intercepting Zhao An, because with the extremely dangerous Kuang Shengtian present, it was too late to intercept anyway.

"Haha, I never expected you to escape that time. This place will be your burial ground today," Kuang Shengtian arrogantly declared.

Indeed, he now had the confidence. Looking at the Mortal Realm, few achieved the Great Perfection. So, in Kuang Shengtian’s eyes, no matter how strong Wu Guangzu was, he was just a mortal, not on the same level as him physically.

"Hmph! You’re getting arrogant too early; though your strength has greatly improved, don’t be too conceited. The victor is not yet determined!"

Wu Guangzu said with a bit of disdain.

Kuang Shengtian didn’t speak further but swiftly launched forward to attack Wu Guangzu, knowing that Kuang Shengtian intended to stall him to let his men pursue Ru Nian’s convoy.

Thinking of this, Wu Guangzu decided to unleash his full strength and then seize the opportunity to escape and intercept the pursuers.

He urgently leapt into the air, clasped the Blood Shadow Saber with both hands, and used all his power. Instantly, an immensely large saber glowing red light appeared before Wu Guangzu.

Wu Guangzu swung fiercely a few times, sending several powerful Sword Qi racing towards Kuang Shengtian.

However, Kuang Shengtian wasn’t afraid; he smiled disdainfully from the corner of his mouth, then suddenly spread his legs wide, taking a martial stance, and abruptly thrust his hands upward.

In an instant, a golden shield formed around Kuang Shengtian, the same Invincible Vajra Divine Shield used by Kuang Chenggong before. Though mystical, it consumed much energy, usable only once or twice per day.

Therefore, Kuang Shengtian was also taking a risk, as this technique could deflect an opponent’s attack back at them.

Wu Guangzu had seen such a scene before and never expected Kuang Shengtian to know this move. So, before he could retract the Godless Tyrant Saber, it struck Kuang Shengtian’s Golden Bell Divine Shield, and a powerful energy rebounded back.

Knowing beforehand, Wu Guangzu immediately withdrew his saber to defend, following the Qi rebound, thus reducing much of the damage.

Wu Guangzu was knocked back tens of meters before landing, his blood surging. He spat blood, clearly injured, but thankfully not gravely.

Seeing Wu Guangzu blasted so far, Kuang Shengtian rejoiced and immediately rushed forward, determined to kill Wu Guangzu with a punch.

Just then, several throwing darts flew out of nowhere, and with quick reflexes, Kuang Shengtian performed two backflips, retreating some distance.

Soon after, a fiery woman descended from the sky, quickly lifting Wu Guangzu to flee. But Kuang Shengtian wouldn’t let it go, swiftly pursuing.

"Xiao Qing, are you crazy? It’s so dangerous here, yet you came back," Wu Guangzu was astonished to see Xiao Qing saving him, yet also worried. If something happened to her, how would he explain to Gang Leader Xiao?

"Hehe, Wu, I came to save you. I couldn’t leave you unattended," Xiao Qing grinned, indifferent to the danger, purely wanting to help.

Wu Guangzu was speechless; she truly didn’t know her limits. Such danger, this return might be deadly, yet she spoke of it so casually.

Though injured, Wu Guangzu wasn’t gravely so. He knew Kuang Shengtian wouldn’t relent, and told Xiao Qing, "When Kuang Shengtian catches up, run quickly. Don’t worry about me."

"Ah? Will he catch up?" Xiao Qing naively asked, "I thought he wouldn’t if you escaped. Will he chase?"

"Indeed, he’s vicious. Not only will he chase, but he’ll also try to kill me. So, you must run later, or else he might kill you too."

Wu Guangzu was really anxious; this girl seemed fearless. If she suffered, he wouldn’t know how to face Xiao Feng.

Dying wasn’t a big deal; Ru Nian Junior Brother would fulfill the mission to reorganize the Assassin Group. But if Xiao Qing died, Xiao Feng would be furious, and any collaboration with the Assassin Group would be uncertain.

Thinking of this, Wu Guangzu sped up with Xiao Qing. But a Great Perfection of the Celestial Dao master was formidable; soon, he heard the flight of Lightweight Skills, and a black shadow flashed by, with Kuang Shengtian appearing before them.

"Ah?" Xiao Qing gasped as a figure appeared, frightened, then softly said, "Wu, this guy seems really strong. He’s like a ghost, appearing and disappearing mysteriously!"

"Yes, Xiao Qing, listen. When we fight, run immediately, don’t stay, you understand?" Wu Guangzu quickly said.

"I won’t go; I want to fight alongside Brother Wu Guangzu."

Xiao Qing pouted stubbornly, unwilling to leave.

Wu Guangzu was at a loss, just as Kuang Shengtian spoke, "Hahaha, are you two having a romantic chat? Want to leave? Not that easy, stay here!"

With that, Kuang Shengtian thrust his Long Sword forward. Wu Guangzu pushed Xiao Qing away, shouting, "Run quickly, or we’ll both die here."

As he spoke, Kuang Shengtian’s sword reached Wu Guangzu, who hurriedly deflected with the Blood Shadow Saber and swiftly dodged aside.

"I won’t leave, Chen Tianlong. I’m here to help you."

Xiao Qing’s stubbornness prevailed. She dashed with her sword drawn, startling Wu Guangzu, but it was too late. Kuang Shengtian smiled slyly and slapped his palm towards her. Xiao Qing tried to defend, but the strong Palm Wind knocked her flying.

Seeing this, Wu Guangzu quickly leaped up, catching her. But at that moment, Kuang Shengtian seized the opportunity to dash over, striking his palm towards Xiao Qing.

Wu Guangzu, shocked, turned to shield Xiao Qing. But Kuang Shengtian’s palm landed on his back, and Wu Guangzu endured the pain as they fell several meters away.

Wu Guangzu held Xiao Qing tightly, never letting go. However, both were clearly heavily injured. After rolling a few times, both spat blood.

"Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing, are you okay?"

Ignoring his own pain, Wu Guangzu cried out, holding Xiao Qing tightly.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

After a bout of coughing, Xiao Qing slowly revived, "Wu, am I dead?"

Wu Guangzu was speechless at her innocent question, despite Xiao Qing’s cuteness. Seeing her pale face, he was very worried, realizing their chances of survival were slim.

He hurriedly turned, seeing Kuang Shengtian approaching slowly.
