An Yi did not answer, but his silence made the others dare not make any rash moves.
I could only watch quietly from the sidelines, hoping that nothing bad would really happen.
This is someone the Lord asked them to protect. If something happens to them, how will they explain it to the Lord?
There was another crucial reason why An Yi hadn't made a move: he didn't think Liu Lanyan was completely at a disadvantage.
On the surface, it seems that Liu Lanyan is dodging, but upon closer observation, one will find that Liu Lanyan's dodges and jumps are not so much forced by the celestial woman, but rather that Liu Lanyan is using her opponent's strength against her.
Each time, Liu Lanyan stepped onto the raging earthy yellow power and used it to dodge the attacks.
At first glance, it seems as if she is being forced to chase by the earthy yellow force, but in fact, Liu Lanyan is stepping on it and easily dodging away.
This feeling was truly wonderful, as if he were watching a performance, a magnificent duel between clumsy and brute force attacks and skillful use of leverage.
It's truly amazing.
An Yi looked at it carefully, and after discovering this pattern, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed a little.
Moreover, after careful observation, he was astonished to discover that Liu Lanyan did not wait until the power attack came before stepping on the "dodge" to dodge, but had already started turning and jumping before the other wave of power arrived.
The direction she jumped in, and the place she landed in, was exactly where the next wave of power from the celestial woman would arrive.
An Yi became increasingly alarmed as he looked at the situation. He knew that there were experts who could see through an opponent's attack at a glance.
However, it is absolutely impossible to have such foresight.
Watching Liu Lanyan's duel with the celestial woman was like watching a master instructing a disciple; it was as if all of the celestial woman's attacks were within Liu Lanyan's calculations.
how so?
An Yi was utterly astonished.
He thought about the scene when the Lord had made his move. Even the Lord used overwhelming power to overwhelm his opponent, and it was absolutely impossible for him to have such "foresight".
An Yi swallowed hard. Just who is Liu Lanyan?
That's why he suppressed An San's suggestion and watched quietly from the sidelines.
"Liu Lanyan, is all you can do is dodge?" After several attacks missed, the celestial woman became anxious. She had plenty of power in her body, but she couldn't withstand such blows.
His confidence, which had just reached its peak, made him think he could easily win over Liu Lanyan in no time. Little did he expect that so much time would pass, and although he had put Liu Lanyan in a very difficult position, he still couldn't win her over.
This outcome made the celestial woman anxious.
With a sudden split of his hands, the earthen-yellow power was divided in two, then further split into four, then into eight...
The fine strands seemed to form long, yellowish-brown ropes, lunging at Liu Lanyan with menacing force, instantly wrapping around her wrists and binding her waist.
It was like an octopus's tentacles, tightly wrapped around, shrinking tighter and tighter.
One strand was wrapped around her, and then the next few strands followed suit, continuing to wrap around her all over, layer upon layer, tightly binding Liu Lanyan.
The earthen-yellow force, heavy as a thousand pounds, wrapped around Liu Lanyan's body, and with a thud, Liu Lanyan fell heavily to the ground.
The muffled thud made An Yi and the others tremble, and their expressions changed drastically.
They weren't nervous when they were forced into that situation, but when they saw Liu Lanyan at a disadvantage, they were so frightened that they stopped breathing.
They can die, but we absolutely cannot let anything happen to Liu Lanyan.
"Liu Lanyan, let's see if you still won't surrender?" The celestial woman laughed triumphantly, raising her chin and looking down at Liu Lanyan, who was tightly bound by earthen yellow power.
The immortal man standing nearby also came over: "It seems that it was a bit of a waste for the two of us to come and capture Liu Lanyan."
The celestial man spoke in a calm voice, a calmness he tried hard to suppress, a calmness he tried to control, but it could not hide the smugness and arrogance in his words.
The celestial woman glanced at her companion, and the two of them laughed heartily: "What a pathetic fellow."
I never imagined they would be this amazing.
After being acknowledged by the Lord, they were given such powerful abilities that they could easily accomplish things they could never have imagined before.
I'm so excited!
In a daze, they even had a feeling that they could rival immortals.
This feeling of being filled with power is so wonderful and amazing.
Just as An Yi was about to give the order, they were about to take action.
Just then, a soft laugh rang in everyone's ears, so clear that it abruptly stopped An Yi's actions.
It seems the situation isn't as simple as he initially perceived.
"When did the people of the Immortal Realm become so foolish?" Liu Lanyan sneered, glancing at the two people from the Immortal Realm.
"Earth-based power..." Liu Lanyan sneered faintly, "Did you think there was only earth-based power here?"
Just as the woman from the celestial realm was about to speak sarcastically, she suddenly noticed that the pale, almost transparent blue color in Liu Lanyan's palm had abruptly intensified.
It was so pure, so blue, as if it were the color of the origin of all life, spinning around in Liu Lanyan's palm.
A bad premonition suddenly welled up in her heart. The celestial woman felt the fluctuation of power around her. This power, this power was actually—water power?
Using water systems on desertified land?
How is this possible?
☆, Chapter 114 A Huge Difference
"You, you..." The celestial woman had no idea what she was trying to say.
However, she didn't need to think about what to say. The pure blue power suddenly flashed and directly pulverized the earthy yellow power binding Liu Lanyan.
The celestial woman was shaken by the powerful force and staggered back several steps before managing to regain her balance.
Compared to the surprise on the faces of the others, the celestial woman was completely shocked.
Others may only see that Liu Lanyan used water-based power to break free from her earth-based power, but only she herself knows and understands the turmoil of her blood and qi within her chest.
If it weren't for the powerful strength within her body that allowed her to suppress the metallic taste rising in her throat, she probably would have already spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Who says you can’t use water-based powers here?” Liu Lanyan said with a smile, the pure blue magic in her hand spinning as if silently echoing her words.
Even though the celestial woman herself was not very strong, she still had some knowledge of the celestial realm. When she saw the water-based power, her heart skipped a beat.
Is that the essence of water?
No, that's not right...
It seems to be even stronger than the power of the essence of water.
The celestial woman no longer dared to be arrogant and directly said to the man beside her, "Let's take her down together, lest things get complicated."
The celestial man also noticed the anomaly and nodded in agreement.
They bear the entrustment of His Majesty and must not disappoint him.
Having thought this through, they stopped trying to show off their superiority and immediately attacked simultaneously.
In an instant, fiery red power and earthy yellow power appeared simultaneously, intertwined, and attacked Liu Lanyan.
Liu Lanyan smiled slightly, looking down at the pure blue in her palm, as if she hadn't seen the terrifying power that was rapidly attacking her.
An San stared in astonishment, a strange thought suddenly flashing through his mind.
Why does Liu Lanyan look so much like the Lord?
That composure and calmness in the face of a formidable foe seemed to be etched from the same mold.
The thought had barely crossed her mind when a transparent, thin, blue light suddenly rose from behind Liu Lanyan—no, to be precise, from both sides of Liu Lanyan, and not just from her sides, but from both sides of the trajectory of the attack from the two immortals.
It was as if a wave was rising and crashing heavily into the center, where the power of the celestial realm was rushing in.
In a flash, it vanished, disappeared without a trace.
Just like a dying spark encountering a roaring tsunami, the two celestial powers vanished without a trace.
calm.
Extremely calm.
The two immortals were definitely trying to take down Liu Lanyan in one blow. Could the power they unleashed have been a test?
To neutralize their combined attack, will Liu Lanyan use a weak and feeble force?
The collision of these three powerful forces produced no sound whatsoever.
There wasn't even a sound, let alone an earthquake.
This...this...
An Yi and the others exchanged shocked glances, a strange thought popping into their minds.
The Lord sent them here, but who is protecting whom?
"With power like this, how dare the Immortal Realm send you here?" Liu Lanyan's words left An Yi and the others extremely embarrassed.
If they can't even handle such power, aren't they too weak?
"You haven't even integrated with the power that was forcibly injected into your bodies, yet you dare to come out so rashly. I really don't know what to say. Are you saying you're bold? Or are you saying you're brainless?"
Upon hearing this, An Yi and the others were relieved; it turned out they weren't talking about strength.
"You..." The celestial woman was about to retort loudly, but was stopped by her companion.
The celestial man seemed more rational. He looked at Liu Lanyan and asked, "Liu Lanyan, our celestial realm is only inviting you as a guest. Please don't misunderstand."
He's rational, but he's just an idiot.
Liu Lanyan immediately drew a conclusion for him after he opened his mouth.
"So, visiting the Immortal Realm means being kidnapped. So this is how the Immortal Realm treats its guests." Liu Lanyan smiled coldly, watching the Immortal Realm man's face turn from shame and indignation to anger.
"Whether you've come to 'invite' me or to capture me, I have no interest in the Immortal Realm," Liu Lanyan sneered, speaking with disdain. "If you want to deal with the Demon God, then do it openly and honestly. If you want to attack the Demon Realm, then openly deploy your army."
