Chapter 166 Light vs Darkness
Golden wings emerged from Qin Chen's back, and he immediately grasped Li Yue'er's hand, lifting her off the ground as they soared into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, they had left the city streets and ascended into the sky.
Meanwhile, Li Yue'er's eyes were filled with disbelief. She didn't know what was happening, and now she was at a terrifying height.
"Qin Chen, what are you doing? Let me go!" she yelled, but her voice was just a part of the wind rushing between the clouds.
Qin Chen, however, spoke with a chilling tone that sent shivers down her spine, "You chose Long Tian. Now you will face the consequences. You shall not choose him over me!"
Li Yue'er really couldn't believe it. Qin Chen, who was once weak, could now fly. She could even sense his strength just from the grip of his hand.
However, she didn't stay passive. Her expression turned as cold as ice, radiating a threat. "You've become worse, Qin Chen. I'm truly disappointed in you," she said coldly.
"Say whatever you want, Yue'er. I will never leave you; you are mine!" Qin Chen responded resolutely.
Li Yue'er's gaze grew colder. Unconsciously, darkness began to radiate from her body.
The next moment, darkness enveloped her. Her left arm was shrouded in darkness, forming a fist with knuckles.
Qin Chen suddenly felt an unusual aura. He glancing at Li Yue'er only to be met with a sudden punch to his face.
A resounding "Thump!" echoed, signifying the powerful blow that sent Qin Chen off balance, causing him to plunge down.
He fell onto the grass, discovering it was a football stadium. Slowly rising, he felt the lingering pain on his face from Li Yue'er's punch and the overall soreness from the fall of hundreds of meters.
In contrast, Li Yue'er touched down gracefully, dark energy radiating from both of her feet.
"I can't believe you've changed like this, Qin Chen. You used to be gentle and caring, but now... I truly can't find words for your nature," she said, a cold and disappointed tone in her voice.
"It's because I love you so much, Yue'er. Please, let's start over together. I promise to make you happy at all times. Let's go back to how we were before," Qin Chen responded, his tone pleading sincerely.

There are so many women in this world, why does it have to be me? Please move on; I don't want you to get into trouble because of dealing with Long Tian."
"And from what we've been through together, why does Long Tian get you? Please, I love you so much, Yue'er. I'm willing to do anything for you!" Qin Chen responded earnestly.
"There's no chance for you, Qin Chen," Li Yue'er replied coldly.
Hearing, this, Qin Chen clenched his teeth, his gaze turning even colder and more menacing. "Then don't blame me when I get brutal, Yue'er. I'm much stronger than you realize," he declared.
The next moment, he shot towards Li Yue'er, his gaze focused on her neck, intending to knock her out without pain.
His hand clenched, targeting the point he had marked. However, Li Yue'er suddenly reacted by blocking his hand and retaliating with a punch accompanied by blue fire.
A thunderous "Thump!" reverberated through the air as the punch connected with his face, causing him to stagger backward.
His expression twisted with disbelief. Yet, Li Yue'er showed no mercy, delivering another fierce punch that he managed to block, retreating a few steps for recovery.
"I can't believe you're actually resorting to attacking me!" Li Yue'er exclaimed with a mix of anger and irritation.
"You've left me with no other option, Yue'er. I'll get you no matter what!" Qin Chen retorted with unwavering determination.
"Then you will never get a single bit of me. From now on, you are my enemy!" Li Yue'er declared coldly.
Qin Chen clenched his fists, somehow feeling regret. Now it seemed that his relationship with Li Yue'er was completely shatteted with no way back.
Meanwhile, Li Yue'er darted towards him, unleashing a barrage of skilled and calculated strikes.
"Thump!" The sound echoed repeatedly, underscoring the intensity of their duel.
Amidst the fight, Qin Chen couldn't help but ponder why Li Yue'er had become so strong.
The once tender and compassionate girl had vanished entirely, replaced by a drastically different persona.
In this moment, the ground became engulfed in Li Yue'er's blue fire technique, prompting Qin Chen to soar into the air. At this pivotal juncture, his eyes gleamed with a blinding golden light.
"Arkh!" Li Yue'er screamed, shielding her eyes from the flash emitted by Qin Chen's gaze.
She hastily rubbed her eyes, but not swiftly enough. Qin Chen descended before her, striking her neck and targeting a vital point that threw off her balance, sending her crashing to the ground.
Her vision blurred, and her eyes slowly shut, succumbing to unconsciousness.
Qin Chen stood with an inexplicable expression on his face, fixated on the unconscious form of Li Yue'er lying on the ground.
"I won't lose you, Li Yue'er," he declared.
Following that, he clasped Li Yue'er's hand, readying to hoist her.
However, Li Yue'er's body remained inert; it felt exceptionally weighty. Qin Chen attempted again, this time lifting her frame.
Yet, abruptly, Li Yue'er's eyes snapped open, locking directly onto his.
Qin Chen, taken aback, launched another attack, but before his hand could reach her neck, Li Yue'er swiftly caught it.
"You loser!" Li Yue'er sneered.
In the next moment, darkness erupted from her, forcefully hurling Qin Chen away.
Darkness seemed to surge forth from Li Yue'er, inducing a profound transformation. Her attire morphed into dark armor exuding a lethal aura.
Her countenance grew colder, and the irises in her eyes darkened with a murderous intent. It was evident that she was no longer herself but her own martial spirit.
Qin Chen's expression turned grave, utterly unprepared for Li Yue'er's transformation.
"Do you hate me this much now, Yue'er? I can't fathom that after everything we've endured, we would find ourselves in this predicament," he uttered with bitterness in his voice.
Li Yue'er remained cold, void of emotions. She maneuvered her right hand, summoning a dark sword into her grip. The blade emitted a menacing aura of darkness.
In the next moment, she lunged at Qin Chen, sword thrusting with a hiss slicing through the air, yet Qin Chen effortlessly sidestepped the attack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Yue'er wasn't content with a single strike. Relentlessly, she followed up with a barrage of attacks.
Qin Chen skillfully dodged each assault, but he couldn't sustain this indefinitely. His eyes glowed once more with a brilliant golden hue. However, Li Yue'er, having experienced it before, promptly summoned a barrier of darkness before her.
Qin Chen's countenance turned serious, caught off guard by Li Yue'er's anticipation of his moves. On the contrary, Li Yue'er swiftly took flight again, materializing in front of him.
Her sword moved unerringly toward his body, resulting in a sharp "Stab!" as the dark blade pierced through him.
Qin Chen's eyes widened. He looked down at the blood staining his clothes, then shifted his gaze to Li Yue'er, whose expression remained cold.
Gritting his teeth, he roared, "RAAAAARGH!" His bellow reverberated, accompanied by an eruption of a golden aura that forcibly flung Li Yue'er away.
Her eyes narrowed as she witnessed Qin Chen's transformation, now enveloped in a golden aura. Her expression turned serious, sensing the imminent threat from the radiant aura.
Subsequently, the scene before her became more spectacular as a towering figure in white attire, with long black hair, manifested behind Qin Chen, towering dozens of meters high.
"You've given me no choice, Li Yue'er," Qin Chen declared, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on her with unyielding determination.
Li Yue'er stood, her expression more relaxed yet as cold as ice. Tightening her grip on the handle of her dark sword, she surged towards Qin Chen without a word, swiftly arriving in front of him.
There was no panic in Qin Chen's expression; he simply waved his hand, causing a thin golden aura to erupt and neutralize Li Yue'er's dark sword instantly.
Li Yue'er was forced to step back a few paces.
"Surrender, Li Yue'er. I don't want to hurt you," Qin Chen pleaded.
"You're too naive, Qin Chen. That's why I dislike you. You also lack everything girls desire. You're just a loser," Li Yue'er responded as her dark armor intensified with darkness, exuding more menace.
Qin Chen gritted his teeth. "I won't hold back anymore!" he roared and charged towards Li Yue'er.
Unarmed, he attacked with various barehanded strikes. Li Yue'er, on the other hand, skillfully evaded and blocked all of Qin Chen's attacks while waiting for her dark armor to reach its perfection.
Every second, the sound of "Thump!" echoed repeatedly, marking the intensity of their duel.
Qin Chen and Li Yue'er, once close friends and childhood companions with a strong bond, had now transformed into enemies determined to defeat each other.
