I Have a Compass for Opportunity

Chapter 225: Chapter 46: Inviting the Enemy Into the Trap (Part 3)

While Liou Fang was trapped by the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array, Liou Tao further stepped back some distance, giving no chance for the array to affect him.

Liou Yuan and Liou Tao had already clashed both openly and covertly several times. Fully aware of this young man’s nature, Liou Yuan couldn’t help but curse silently: "This guy is still as cautious and sly as ever, like a viper."

Now, Liou Yuan had two choices: either enter the array and use it to first kill Liou Fang.

Or use the array to trap Liou Fang and first kill Liou Tao.

One thought of Liou Tao’s cunning and unpredictable C-level skill, Cloud Manipulation, made Liou Yuan abandon the idea of killing Liou Tao first.

He was confident he could defeat Liou Tao, but not confident in capturing him.

So, he was left with only one choice.

"First kill the one inside the array."

A fierce gleam flashed in Liou Yuan’s eyes as he relied on the shadows of the canyon to slowly stealth towards Liou Fang inside the array.

Liou Fang stood alone in the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array, overwhelmed by the blinding gold light, forced to retreat step by step.

Although his life wasn’t in immediate danger, over time, Liou Fang wouldn’t be able to hold on. With his back against the edge of the array, he resisted the array’s power with his body’s qi and blood while urgently calling out to Liou Tao, who appeared indifferent outside the array: "Young master, help me!"

Liou Tao’s expression was cold, casting only a sidelong glance at Liou Fang inside the array before quickly looking elsewhere.

Sweeping across the canyon floor, he responded leisurely: "This array was set up by that guy, he’s surely lurking in the shadows now. If I help you, wouldn’t I just be giving him a chance to exploit?"

Continuing in a nonchalant tone, Liou Tao said: "This array is of Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer strength, and you’re a Body Cultivator. This array won’t trouble you for a while yet."

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed Liou Fang’s eyes but was quickly suppressed.

He could only reply in a low voice: "Then young master, be careful."

Their conversation was brief, lasting mere moments.

Just as anger flared in Liou Fang’s heart due to Liou Tao’s disregard, he turned back towards the inside of the array.

Bam! Suddenly, a cluster of azure sword light burst forth from outside the array, hidden in the shadows of the canyon.

The sword light was so swift, Liou Fang couldn’t react in time.

He only felt a beam of azure light penetrate the array filled with golden light.

By the time he realized what happened.

The youth, enveloped in azure spiritual light, had already arrived before him, wielding a blue sword.

The sword’s blade shimmered with the azure light, the very glow Liou Fang first saw.

"Liou Yuan!" Liou Fang naturally recognized Liou Yuan.

Seeing the youth’s delicate yet fierce features beneath the azure spiritual light, he cried out in shock.

His instinctive reaction was to fully activate the qi and blood within him.

The already dense shield of blood now took on the form of a thick blood shield, firmly blocking in front of Liou Fang.

Magic: Blood Qi as Shield!

Thud! The sword light erupted upon the blood shield.

Liou Fang’s most prized defense skill gave only a slight crack before being pierced by the azure sword-wrapped blade.

As the sword’s edge pierced the shield, the azure sword light also penetrated Liou Fang’s chest.

"Get lost!" Liou Fang felt a chill in his chest, momentarily without intense pain, and roared in anger, controlling his blood qi to attack the nearby Liou Yuan. freёwebnovel.com

"Hah!" With a successful strike, Liou Yuan let out a cold laugh and retreated rapidly using the Stepping Wave Body Skill.

Not giving Liou Fang any chance for a counterattack.

This strike was aimed at the perfect timing, meant to hit with certainty.

The Stepping Wave Body Skill combined with the Sword Rain Curtain Stealth was already impressive in its own right.

With the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array as cover, it was impossible for Liou Fang to evade.

"Bastard." Blood flowed profusely from Liou Fang’s chest; he couldn’t care about the blood staining his body and was set to pursue Liou Yuan.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! At that moment, the golden brilliance inside the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array erupted, forcing him to retreat repeatedly.

Liou Fang roared with frustration, restrained by his trapped condition, fuming.

His voice quickly died away.

He sensed something, looked down in horror, and saw the azure light shining where the sword rain curtain stealth had pierced his chest.

Liou Fang felt a chill in his chest.

Then came a pain so intense it felt like his entire body would collapse.

Bang! Flesh and blood exploded.

The hidden power of the azure sword light erupted within him.

Blasting a fist-sized hole in Liou Fang’s chest.

"Pfft!" Severely injured, Liou Fang spat out a mouthful of blood, swaying unsteadily, ultimately collapsing to one knee on the ground.

Throughout this process, the Refined Gold Moon-breaking Array did not cease.

It reformed into new golden brilliance, enveloping Liou Fang.
