Chapter 16: Life and Death Gamble

The night in Tianhai City was eerily quiet, with the moonlight partially obscured by dark clouds, appearing somewhat gloomy. However, it made the atmosphere even colder, as if it was sprinkling with a chill.
Located at the end of Tianhai City, the QiongCang Academy is built against the mountain, with the Wolongju Loft situated below.
A gust of wind sweeps in, causing the leaves to tremble, creating an atmosphere of solemnity and danger.
Chu Yun and Bai Wu Ying stand facing each other, both dressed in light and fluttering attire, with tension in the air.
I really didn't expect it.
Just going out to deliver a bedding, I ended up being mistaken for the person stealing the Spirit Stone, and was forced to fight for my life.
Chu Yun really wants to shout out loud now.
Fucking unlucky!!!
........
Bai Wuying was born in the Ghost Sect and was sent to the Ghost Gate for training since childhood. In that place, there was no cruelty, no indifference, and he simply couldn't survive after coming out. After going through the baptism of bloody slaughter.
It's like killing ants when it comes to murder.
It's all become routine.
There are clues in this. Bai Wuying was so furious and determined to kill when he met Chu Yun because not only was the Spirit Stone stolen, but also because Chu Yun was Chu Yu's follower.
The Heavenly Phoenix Sect and the Ghost Gate Sect have long held deep grudges against each other, like water and fire. The decline of the Ghost Gate Sect in the past could not be separated from the suppression of the Heavenly Phoenix Sect. Even my own grandfather was under the authority of Senior Elder Chu Ba Tian from the Heavenly Phoenix Sect.
.......
The person opposite me, I wanted to shock his heart a bit. The sword move I just used was already exerted with eighty percent of my strength, yet the person across from me, who just barely reached the opening of spiritual cultivation, actually managed to block it.
Some weird stuff. Obviously, the magnitude of his spiritual energy is still at the level of the third order, or even higher.
But it's just the third order of OpeningSpirit.
Why is he so calm?
Looking at the beautiful face of Chu Yun, there was no ripple on her calm demeanor.
His anger intensified, and he gripped the sword in his hand even tighter.
Of course, Chu Yun would not let him see through her. No matter when or where, she must manage her expression well.
At this very moment.
楚云的心里其实有些紧张。
The gun in his hand is ready to go.
楚云已经在脑海里，想好了接下来的剧情。
That is to wait for Bai Wu Ying to attack again, pretending to retreat in a hurry, making him relax his vigilance, and then, at the right moment, pull the trigger in his hand to take his life.
The question is, in the academy, where should I go after committing murder? Will the Ghost Sect spare me?
These are all major questions. Now that I have such weak strength, is it really feasible to get involved in such a big trouble?
"Die, Ghost Shadow Stab."
Chu Yun was still hesitating when Bai Wuying roared lightly.
His eyes were ablaze, with a flash of brilliance, gathering momentum suddenly, and the short sword in his hand gently turned in an arc, then his body turned into a phantom, disappearing.
There was a slight sound of breaking wind in the air.
Chu Yun knew Bai Wuying.
With a quick glance, he appeared suddenly.
What the heck.
It must be said that this was the first time Chu Yun faced a strong cultivator at the Foundation Building stage. The elusive footwork of Bai Wuying, along with his indestructible short sword, made him invincible and awe-inspiring. The pressure from this was truly incomparable.
Chu Yun is feeling very uncomfortable now.
It feels like someone is tightly grabbing her throat, making it difficult to breathe.
Chu Yun's cultivation is currently not enough, and she cannot observe the void with spiritual power. She can only rely on her eyesight and feelings to try to catch Bai Wu Ying's elusive actions in the dimness.
Damn it!!
Only relying on the faint light emitted from the short sword, Chu Yun could track the movements of Bai Wuying.
However, Chu Yun was still greatly shocked.
Instantly, the world spun, and he panicked and retreated step by step. But this was not pretense, it was truly forced to retreat by Bai Wuying's overwhelming attacks, and he didn't have any chance to counterattack with the mechanism in his hand.
Perhaps it's possible.
But Chu Yun knows that if he forces a move, he would definitely not be able to avoid his fatal sword attack.
This guy is really ruthless.
He leaves no room for mercy when attacking.
Do I really have to fight him to the death?
I'm still a virgin in this lifetime, and my heart is unwilling.
I secretly learned the Wind Phoenix Sect's Yellow Stage technique, the Swift Wind Step, and have already reached its pinnacle. I constantly move and evade, avoiding its sharpness. However, my cultivation is only at the third stage of the Opening Spirit realm, and my spiritual energy is insufficient to sustain for long. It quickly depletes.
Ah.
Action is slightly slow.
The intense pain in the chest tells myself that I have been stabbed.
Damn it.
Blanc, who successfully hit, paused and looked coldly at the wound on Chu Yun's chest, smiling grimly.
"How does it taste?"
......
Chu Yun clenched his teeth, endured the pain, gasped for breath, his eyes bloodshot, and he looked completely disheveled.
He tightly gripped the firearm in his hand again, and a fierce and ruthless gaze flickered in his eyes.
This cannot go on, absolutely.
Chu Yun reached for the storage bag at his waist again.
To his surprise, he touched a scorching golden pill in his pocket.
Suddenly, a thought popped into his mind.
Wasn't this the Nine Transformation Immortal Pill that the old man gave him yesterday after helping Old Tu refine it in the academy?
Chu Yun originally planned to take the Ninth Stage elixir when he opened his Ling Qi, to see if he could make a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage. However, now he didn't think about anything and directly swallowed it.
A wave of fervent energy surged inside his abdomen, enveloping his entire body in an instant, and it kept expanding, feeling like it was about to burst open.
Boom!
The head buzzed.
It seemed like being awakened forcibly, the enlightenment poured in.
An inexplicable clarity flashed through the soul sea, Chu Yun could feel that his spiritual perception suddenly opened up, and his cultivation soared rapidly.
Awakening the Third Order!
Awakening the Fourth Order!
Awakening the Fifth Order!
Awakening the Sixth Order!
Continuing until Awakening the Seventh Order.
Because Chu Yun's body has already undergone the Awakening of the Ninth Order, as long as the spiritual power is sufficient, advancing to higher orders is a natural process and does not have any side effects.
White Wuying, who is by Chu Yun's side, clearly feels the changes in Chu Yun's body as well as the rapid accumulation of spiritual energy around him.
He actually made a breakthrough?
His heart is somewhat panicked.
I don't know what happened. Could it be that this guy used some secret technique?
"Hmph, go to hell."
Bai Wuying did not wait any longer, launching another attack, holding a short sword, thundering forward.
This time.
Chu Yun no longer hesitated.
Once he realizes that retreat is meaningless, Chu Yun will go all out to attack.
Fight to the death.
With his strong spiritual awareness, Chu Yun has already captured the elusive presence of the ghost-like White Shadow.
He has arrived.
Chu Yun's eyes are also cold and chilling, like a menacing Yama, ready to take lives!
He took a step forward firmly.
Wristlock.
Stealing chickens, molesting, the best choice.
His hand turned into an iron-like claw again.
He grabbed forward with one hand.
His hand clashed against the sword.
Two giant cyclones collide directly.
Between Chu Yun and Bai Wu Ying.
The space twists and tears apart with a loud bang.
Chu Yun's chest trembles violently, and a mouthful of old blood surges up to his throat.
However.
Just at that moment.
Chu Yun concealed his left hand for a while.
He made a move.
Biubiubiu! The sound of a silver bottle exploding.
Ah!
At the same time, Chu Yun and Bai Wu Ying retreated.
Chu Yun stood still, spitting out a mouthful of old blood, barely holding on.
White Wuying's eyeballs bulged out, covering her throat and couldn't believe she was looking at Chu Yun.
She looked down at her chest, where a row of densely packed plum blossom needles had all penetrated.
He suddenly felt paralyzed and unable to move.
"Y-y-y-you..."
Bai Wuying still wanted to say something despicable, but Chu Yun didn't give him the chance. His figure dashed forward, snatched the short sword from his hand, and ruthlessly plunged it into his abdomen.
The eyeballs of Bai Wuying, bloodshot, bulged, his lips twitched, and his body convulsed violently before falling with a thunderous crash.
That’s it, he's dead.
He probably never expected this to happen.
This cameo appearance of mine didn't even last a few chapters.
The author is damn good.
Chu Yun didn't plan on eradicating the evidence. The fight they just had, while not very loud, must have alerted quite a few people. He definitely wouldn't dare to linger here now.
Just kill without licking the bag.
Then what's the difference between fucking and falling in love?
So Chu Yun dragged his battered body, felt around the waist of this white shadowless person, tore off a storage bag, without even looking back, and disappeared into the night.
Just as Chu Yun left for a moment.
A shadow floated down from the dark sky.
If someone were to see it.
They would be extremely surprised.
Because it turned out to be the unremarkable dormitory manager, Aunt Wang Cui. Seeing her land gracefully and full of energy, with a lazy expression, she was at least a powerful person at the Xuan Element realm.
She looked down and saw a corpse lying on the ground.
She touched his pulse.
Dead.
She stood up and looked around.
Her expression became cold and stern.
.......
Unexpectedly, this academy, hidden talents are everywhere, even the dormitory caretaker, has such high cultivation.
Of course, because the two were fighting, there was such a disturbance.
Many nearby sleeping classmates were also alarmed and came out.
To see what's happening.
Chu Yu was already unable to sleep because her hands and feet were cold, and when she heard the intense shaking, she immediately ran out. This girl was also above her own courtyard and saw Chu Yun's miserable appearance, making her feel nervous.
Rushed out quickly.
Came to Chu Yun's side.
"What are you doing, Chu Yun, during such a late hour?"
Chu Yu's intention was actually to ask, do you want to die, to actually provoke Bai Wu Ying?
"Master, it's him, Chu Yun, who stole my spirit stone."
White Wuying shouted loudly, with a look of
