Chapter 129: Chapter 129: New RulesThe first round of battle quickly came to a conclusion, with Mu Can, Ning Wang, Li Xuan, Red Eagle, and Cai Yi successfully defeating their opponents. Red Eagle was a middle-aged man with fiery red hair, exuding an unruly demeanor. His true form was a demon beast, a red giant eagle, who in the final moments of battle defeated his opponent and swallowed them whole, clearly showing he was no gentle creature. Cai Yi was indeed named Cai Yi, and she preferred to wear colorful garments. In the midst of battle, her scarf was torn off, revealing her true face. Surprisingly, she was a very attractive woman, her long hair just as colorful as her clothing, like a proud peacock. Despite being a woman, no one underestimated her, someone who stood out from a group of a hundred fighters. "Indeed, there are many masters here," Mu Can said, glancing at the other four. Li Xuan didn’t need to be mentioned; Mu Can had personally experienced his strength. Among the remaining three, Ning Wang seemed unfathomable. As a transformation demon beast, he even won his battle without using his innate abilities, and there was also a woman with a bewitching appearance. "Only five remain in the Death Space, and due to the unusually rapid rate of death this time, a new mode, the Death Maze, has been activated," echoed a voice in everyone’s ears. "Enquire, what is this Death Maze mode all about?" Mu Can quickly asked. "If the determination of victory within the Death Space occurs quicker than a certain threshold, the Death Maze mode will be activated. This is a protective mode for you, hiding many more secrets within. The first three individuals to find the exit will be victorious, doubling the number of survivors. However, the fewer the survivors, the better the final reward will be," explained a voice at a slow pace. So that was it; their battles had simply been too fast, and for such a situation to occur, the Great Power who created the Death Space added this mode on top of the original Death Space. "Did you all hear that? The Death Maze," Ning Wang raised his voice to address the others. For safety, these final five survivors all kept a certain distance from each other. "Killing isn’t forbidden in the Death Maze, so you all better be careful," Red Eagle said with a crooked smile, yet his expression was cold. Cai Yi glanced at Red Eagle and disdainfully said, "With your mangy feathers? You’d better pray you don’t run into me, otherwise, I’ll pluck every single feather off you." Mu Can shivered at her words, wondering how such a pretty young girl could speak so aggressively. Red Eagle was so insulted that he blushed and was at a loss for words for quite a while. In a battle of insults, he, a demon beast transformation, was no match for the young girl. After struggling to find a harsh retort and failing, Red Eagle just glared at Cai Yi and eventually said nothing. "The young lady has quite the spirit, I like that," Ning Wang complimented Cai Yi with a thumbs up. He always had great admiration for such heroic women. Little did he know, not only did Cai Yi not appreciate Ning Wang’s praise, but she also gave him a cold look. "Young lady? You’d better take care as well not to fall into this missy’s hands. Otherwise, I might just mar that pretty little face of yours." Ning Wang felt as if he’d been pushed hundreds of meters away by Cai Yi’s words, giving Red Eagle an embarrassed glance and then remaining silent, sharing a sense of empathy. "This girl must’ve eaten a bomb," Mu Can commented as Qingyi came over to him. Qingyi covered her mouth with a smile, "This girl is only eighteen this year; I really don’t know how she came to have such a personality." Though Qingyi was right beside Mu Can, the others couldn’t see that there was an additional person here. Under the absolute suppression of strength, as long as Qingyi didn’t want them to see her, they couldn’t detect her presence no matter how keen their senses were. "It’s still better with Sister Yun, and Qingyi too, so gentle and never causing any trouble," Mu Can suddenly remarked, only to feel a pain at his waist. A small hand directly pinched the soft flesh around Mu Can’s waist. With Purple Cloud’s strength, even though he was protected by Dragon Scale, Mu Can felt as if the flesh there had been pinched off, causing him to grimace in pain. Seeing Mu Can’s reaction, the other few people immediately looked at Mu Can with a guarded expression, not understanding why Mu Can had suddenly made such a face. "Are you alright?" Li Xuan asked. He considered Mu Can a formidable opponent and didn’t want anything to happen to him. "Alright, alright," Mu Can chuckled awkwardly and waved his hand. Apart from the pain, there really wasn’t any other issue. "Am I gentle?" Purple Cloud asked with a charming smile in return. Only then did Mu Can remember that the Purple Cloud in front of him was not some tender little sheep; the very first time they met, she had knocked him out several times. seaʀᴄh thё novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Crazy," Cai Yi said with a disgusted look at Mu Can. It was a mystery how Cai Yi, with such a temperament, had managed to grow up. "The Death Maze will open in a quarter of an hour, please get ready," the voice rang out again, announcing the imminent opening of the Death Maze. "Interested in joining forces?" To Mu Can’s surprise, Ning Wang actually extended an olive branch to him. Under the current circumstances, cooperating with each other could indeed greatly increase the chances of ultimate victory. Unfortunately, Mu Can would not choose to ally with others, so he shook his head. Seeing Mu Can shake his head, Ning Wang did not say more. As a master, offering to join forces was already a concession, and Ning Wang had his own pride. Looking around, Ning Wang did not extend an invitation to anyone else; he didn’t trust Red Eagle, much less Cai Yi, who could potentially get upset by a word and kill him. As for Li Xuan, Ning Wang didn’t even consider it; facing a madman willing to sacrifice his own people for the sake of Sword Dao, Ning Wang didn’t want to provoke him from the bottom of his heart. "Every man for himself, then," Mu Can said as he looked around indifferently. "You’d better be careful not to run into me," Cai Yi said as she looked at Mu Can. Mu Can, with a helpless expression, "What’s wrong with me?" He himself didn’t know what part of his statement had upset Cai Yi, that crazy woman. "There’s nothing wrong with you, but can’t I just find you annoying? Keep babbling, and I’ll beat you up first," Cai Yi threatened as she raised her little fists at Mu Can. Mu Can touched his nose and said no more, not willing to argue with a crazy woman after all. If the rules hadn’t changed, he might eventually have to confront this woman, but now that the rules had changed, and only the first three to walk out of the maze would survive, Mu Can didn’t want to start a killing spree. Originally, Mu Can had some admiration for Ning Wang and Li Xuan in his heart. "Little girl, you better be careful, I’m not gentle with women," Ning Wang said with a smile on his lips, looking at Cai Yi.
