Chapter 2166 Enraged War God (3)
Zhan You ignored the explosion and turned to Dian Lei. "Give up. Your struggle is pointless. You cannot win." He taunted, his voice echoing with amusement.
Dian Lei furrowed his brow, realizing he had miscalculated. The woman in white hadn't emerged as he had anticipated.
"Hmm?" His attention was abruptly drawn to something within the raging flames engulfing Yun Lintian.
A shimmering moonlight gradually emerged from the inferno, clearing the surrounding flames. Yun Lintian stood unharmed behind a moonlit barrier.
Zhan You tilted his head, surprised to see Yun Lintian unscathed. He glanced at Yue Yun, but realized she wasn't responsible.
"I know it." Dian Lei said with a grin. "You can't defeat her here."
Zhan You frowned deeply, unable to understand what Dian Lei was trying to convey. In his eyes, Yue Yun was strong, but not strong enough to confront him.
Yun Lintian was puzzled as well. Just as he was about to unleash his power, a moonlit barrier suddenly appeared out of nowhere. More importantly, it was so strong that Zhan You's attack didn't leave a scratch on it.
At this moment, Yue Yun slowly got up from the ground. Her demeanor had completely changed. She looked calm and composed as if nothing could shake her.
She turned to look at Zhan You, her eyes so serene that they made Zhan You, known for his fearlessness, shudder.
Before Zhan You could react, Yue Yun suddenly raised her hands, and the Soul Scepter's fragments within his body immediately flew towards her.
The fragments within Dian Lei and Yun Lintian's bodies were no exception. They all shot out and flew into her hand.
Yue Yun gently held the fragments before crushing them, releasing a blinding burst of moonlight that stunned everyone.
As the moonlight faded, a long scepter materialized in Yue Yun's hand.
"Moon Scepter..." Yun Lintian murmured in a low voice.
BOOM!!
The two forces clashed, fire and moonlight intermingling in a dazzling display of raw power.
"Hah!" Zhan You roared in frustration, his attacks growing more frenzied as he desperately tried to break free from the Moon Scepter's influence. But the more he struggled, the stronger the pull became, the closer he came to succumbing to the overwhelming urge to kneel.
The chamber trembled as the battle raged, the very stones groaning under the strain of the immense power unleashed by the two combatants. The air crackled with energy, the clash of fire and moonlight creating a symphony of destruction.
Dian Lei and Yun Lintian watched in awe as Yue Yun held her ground against the undefeated War God. They could sense the strain in her aura, the immense effort it took to maintain control over Zhan You. It wasn't something they could resist.
The fact that Zhan You could put up a struggle against it was a testament to his strength.
"Argh!"
Finally, with a deafening roar that shook the entire chamber, Zhan You's resistance crumbled. His knees buckled, his body slowly descending towards the ground.
The proud War God was forced to kneel before his opponent, his face contorted in a mask of rage and humiliation.
There was joy in Yue Yun's expression. She calmly spoke. "Your dignity shall be trampled today. You are no longer an undefeated war god."
Zhan You's body trembled, every muscle straining against the invisible force that held him captive. His eyes, burning with a rage that could melt mountains, were fixed on Yue Yun, the source of his humiliation.
A guttural growl tore from his throat, a sound filled with fury and defiance. "You dare to humiliate me." Zhan You spat, his voice laced with venomous anger.
A surge of energy, darker and more potent than any he had previously unleashed, erupted from Zhan You's body. The flames that wreathed him twisted and contorted, morphing into a writhing vortex of chaotic energy.
The very air in the chamber crackled with an ominous power, the oppressive atmosphere growing heavier with each passing moment.
Dian Lei's expression changed drastically. "Not good! Run!" he shouted anxiously, rushing towards Yun Lintian in a flash.
