Chapter 778: Chapter 780: Trash Squad (Part 1)
“Make way!”
Gazing at the man blocking her path, Mu Ruyue lifted her icy demeanor, her voice as piercing as a frigid wind, slicing like ice swords across the man’s face.
He paused briefly, then burst into laughter, “The beauty indeed has a personality. What good is it following Qian Chengyan, that useless man? Why not follow me instead?”
As he spoke, he lifted his hand, intending to touch that stunning face.
Yet before he could reach the woman, an intense aura burst forth from her, and with a ‘whoosh,’ Liang Wen was suddenly sent flying out.
In an instant, everyone at the city gate turned their gaze toward them.
Qian Chengyan looked at Liang Wen with some sympathy, a smirk of derision curling his lips, “Don’t be fooled by the master’s unassuming appearance; he is actually a fierce tiger. Whoever crosses him will be unlucky…”
“Damn woman, how dare you hurt me!”
Enraged, Liang Wen was about to severely teach Mu Ruyue a lesson when a clear, cold voice interrupted, “Liang Wen!”
At that moment, Liang Wen’s body shuddered, and he quickly averted his gaze, turning to look at the woman in green beside him, “Lady Dou, it’s just that this woman was too excessive; I was only thinking of teaching her a lesson!”
The lady in green frowned slightly, her tone neither cold nor warm, so measured that it betrayed no emotion.
“Let’s go.”
Before leaving, she glanced indifferently at Mu Ruyue. That look was filled with arrogance and disdain, as if, for her, Mu Ruyue was someone not even worth lifting her hand against…
Watching the woman in green walk away, Mu Ruyue pondered for a moment and asked, “Who is she?”
Considering the situation, the man known as Liang Wen seemed very respectful toward her…
“Not sure,” Qian Chengyan shook his head, “Her surname is Dou, likely from the Dou Family…”
The Dou Family?
Mu Ruyue’s eyes flickered slightly, but she did not say much. She slightly lifted her head, and the sunlight poured down, casting its light upon her exquisite features.
“We should also enter.”
No matter what, she had to meet Wuchen first…
Chaos City was more unruly than most places; even within the city, one could see experts engaging in fierce battles, yet rarely did anyone intervene.
At that moment, the registration area was bustling with noise.
Liang Wen immediately noticed the two approaching figures, a sinister gleam crossing his eyes.
“Eh? Isn’t that Qian Chengyan from the Qiancheng Family?”
“Why is he also participating in the competition?”
That moment, others also noticed Qian Chengyan, their expressions filled with surprise.
Mu Ruyue glanced at the young man beside her, raising an eyebrow, “Qian Chengyan, it seems you are quite famous.”
“Heh heh.”
Qian Chengyan chuckled low, somewhat bashfully scratching his head, “As I often travel between different places, that I am useless is well-known to everyone.”
Mu Ruyue thoughtfully said, “A nineteen-year-old Fake Innate, even if not an unrivaled genius, Talent should not be too bad, so why are you called useless?”
“Because this was my strength seven years ago. Ever since a Seal was imposed inside my body, I have never been able to break through…”
Mu Ruyue was taken aback, then smiled wryly.
No wonder he was known as useless by the world, someone who was once highly talented but had not made any progress in seven years would naturally be deemed to have fallen in Talent…
“Strength!”
The elder sitting at the table glanced at the two approaching figures, swiftly penned a few characters, then shifted his gaze to Mu Ruyue, his voice cold and emotionless like a formula.
