"Chen Yu, you’re even weaker than I expected," Fu Sanguang said with a smile. "I had assud you could last a full thirty minutes on the second layer."
Nearby, many people turned their gaze towards Chen Yu. So looked at him with pity, while others waited eagerly to see him made a fool of.
In the Holy Land, even a single rank in position could be a crushing difference.
Faced with the Silver Emblem Holy Guard Fu Sanguang, Chen Yu had no choice but to endure the humiliation.
"Co on."
Chen Yu approached Fu Sanguang and spoke indifferently.
"What do you want to do?"
Fu Sanguang wore a teasing smile, failing to grasp Chen Yu’s intentions.
"Weren’t you the one who just said you wanted to decide the outco with ?" Chen Yu asked.
In an instant, Fu Sanguang’s smile froze.
In theory, after failing to get through the second layer of the Tongyun Tower, Chen Yu should only have the strength of a Copper Badge Holy Guard and should be looking for excuses to avoid the fight, right? Why would he say sothing like that?
This was entirely beyond Fu Sanguang’s expectations!
"This kid must be sick in the head, failing to get through the second layer and still daring to challenge a Silver Emblem Holy Guard."
"That’s right, he probably got his brain scrambled by the Gatekeeper on the second level."
"I think he just has a masochistic streak."
After a mont of silence, the area suddenly erupted into commotion.
But gradually, the murmurs died down.
"Maybe he made it through?"
Soone muttered quietly.
Fu Sanguang also showed an inquisitive look, hoping Chen Yu would reveal the outco himself.
Chen Yu, of course, disappointed him. He remained composed, with no hint of joy or sorrow on his face.
In fact, Chen Yu was sowhat pleased to have beco a Silver Emblem Holy Guard, but seeing Fu Sanguang’s face spoiled his mood.
"Not daring, huh? Then nevermind."
Chen Yu wore a look of disappointnt and turned to leave.
"Hold it, when have I, Fu Sanguang, ever said I didn’t dare?" Fu Sanguang imdiately called out.
He had just broken through to beco a Silver Emblem Holy Guard, filled with pride and looking down on everyone. Challenging Chen Yu, he was certain Chen Yu wouldn’t dare to accept.
But now the situation seed off. Was Chen Yu bluffing? Or had he really beco a Silver Emblem Holy Guard?
"Then let’s do this."
Chen Yu found this man too talkative. Activating his True Yuan, his body shimred with black light as he activated his Secret Pattern Demon Body and launched an attack.
"Hmph, take this."
Fu Sanguang charged forward abruptly, a massive palm strike unleashed with imposing montum.
Boom!
Chen Yu activated his True Yuan and threw a punch. Fist t palm, creating a thunderous noise.
Zing!
A massive wave of True Yuan energy forced Fu Sanguang to retreat a step.
"As expected of soone who has cultivated the ’Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’, your strength is indeed formidable."
Fu Sanguang shouted, finding an excuse for his disadvantage.
Hum!
Light shone from the star marks on his backhand and forehead. His body leaped forward, leaving a trail of blue afterimages.
Having suffered against Chen Yu, Fu Sanguang no longer concealed his strength, unleashing the power of the ’Three Lights Star Chart’.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Fu Sanguang’s speed increased dramatically. His afterimages were everywhere, making it difficult to discern his true position.
Chen Yu remained unchanging among the myriad changes, standing still without moving.
Sky Wind Fist!
At one mont, Fu Sanguang paused and suddenly threw a punch. The colossal fist, accompanied by the howling of wind, bore down mightily.
"Break!"
Chen Yu fully activated the power of the Secret Pattern Demon Body, directed his True Yuan, and launched an attack at that punch.
Bang!
The massive fist collided with Chen Yu’s seemingly insignificant fist.
But Chen Yu’s fist was like an invincible Divine weapon, shattering Fu Sanguang’s attack.
In that mont, Fu Sanguang transitioned from the blue star state to the yellow star state to amplify his power, but he still couldn’t injure Chen Yu.
"Yangming Sword Point!"
Chen Yu extended his right index finger, making a swift point.
A blood-fla Sword Qi shot out explosively, stabbing towards Fu Sanguang.
In the yellow star state, Fu Sanguang was too slow to dodge Chen Yu’s sword finger.
Hum!
He spread his arms, forming a solid True Essence Shield.
Puff!
However, Chen Yu’s Blood Fla Sword Point pierced through it instantly, leaving a smooth hole and aiming for Fu Sanguang’s chest.
At this mont, Fu Sanguang realized that he had underestimated Chen Yu’s finger strike.
Finger techniques were known for their piercing power, focusing an attack on a single point, but relative to palm and sword techniques, fingers lacked destructive force.
Chen Yu’s technique, taught to him by the Red Fla King as the ’Six Flas Sword Finger’, not only demanded great strength from the fingers but also mastery over fire, giving it an unusual piercing ability.
Puff!
A hole appeared in Fu Sanguang’s chest, and blood began to flow.
At the sa ti, he felt as though there was a fla burning and eroding within him, his essence and blood rapidly depleting.
He imdiately circulated his True Yuan to extinguish the internal flas.
"Senior Sanguang."
Duan Xinyue showed a look of shock.
The fight had only just started, and already Fu Sanguang was wounded.
The others nearby also turned their attention, this outco being beyond their expectations.
"Chen Yu, the fight has barely started, and you’ve already played your ace. Let’s see what you’ll do next."
Fu Sanguang gritted his teeth.
This had just begun, and he had already been injured, he could only say that to save so face for himself.
In fact, Elder Fu Sanguang was also almost certain that Chen Yu had successfully passed the second level and beco a Silver Emblem Holy Guard, otherwise how could he explain his own injury at Chen Yu’s hands?
"That was just a finger technique I recently learned, I was just using you for a bit of practice. If you want to see my real killing move, I’ll let you have a taste of it next."
Chen Yu couldn’t help but smile, sowhat admiring Fu Sanguang’s talent for talking his way out of things.
And upon hearing this, Fu Sanguang’s face showed even more shock.
That finger technique was just sothing Chen Yu had recently learned? He must be kidding.
Just as the two were ready to continue their confrontation, tense as drawn swords and bent bows.
"Stop!"
A faint voice drifted down, but it struck everyone’s hearts like thunder, causing all their bodies to shudder.
"Elder Chang!"
"Greetings to Elder Chang!"
Nearby Holy Guards promptly saluted.
Both Chen Yu and Fu Sanguang imdiately stopped fighting and turned to look at the white-bearded elder in a blue robe with a cold deanor.
"Eh?"
Chen Yu looked at a man standing behind Elder Chang, it was the blue-eyed young man he had seen in Kunyun Palace.
"The Kunyun Realm is in great chaos now, when the Holy Land is at its busiest, yet you have the ti to fight here?"
Elder Chang cast a cold look over them.
"Elder Chang, you’ve misunderstood, Chen Yu and I were just having a friendly exchange."
Fu Sanguang quickly forced a smile and bowed.
"Humph, since you’re both fine, I happen to have a task for you. Both of you, co with ," Elder Chang said.
"Elder Chang, I’ve just completed a task and have only been resting for half a year."
Fu Sanguang said quietly.
"Are you saying that you want to refuse my task?" Elder Chang raised an eyebrow, his voice turning colder.
"No, no, sharing the worries of the Holy Land and of Elder Chang is my honor," Fu Sanguang imdiately responded, wiping the cold sweat that followed.
Although the Holy Land had a rule that one did not need to undertake a new task within a year after completing one,
If Fu Sanguang were to refuse, that would an offending Elder Chang.
So in the Holy Land, rules weren’t always useful; strength was everything.
Next, Elder Chang ca to the seventy-eight cave dwellings outside and called everyone out.
"You, and you..."
Elder Chang pointed to a few others.
Chen Yu only recognized Yin Chengzhuang among them; the other four were people from other countries.
"Not enough people, huh? Well then, the reserve mbers will also participate in the task."
Elder Chang casually remarked.
At once, all the reserve mbers inside the cave dwellings ca out.
Then Elder Chang selected four reserve mbers, including Luo Haotian and Yu Bu Yu.
"Your mission this ti is to head to Yun Zhao Country’s Ningshan Prefecture, where mbers of the Blood Moon Sect are causing trouble. Your task is to quell the rebellion."
"Additionally, within Ningshan Prefecture, there’s a large family clan, the Hao Family, suspected of collusion with the Blood Moon Sect. Your mission includes thoroughly investigating this matter," announced Elder Chang.
Due to the need to quell a rebellion, many hands were needed this ti; with not enough personnel, even reserve mbers were brought in.
"I am your leader, Zou Yuhong. For this mission, all orders are to co from ."
The blue-eyed man beside Elder Chang stepped forward.
"A Golden Emblem Holy Guard!"
"With a Golden Emblem Holy Guard leading us, it should be much safer."
Those who had just been chosen looked very pleased.
"Elder Chang, we’re leaving."
Zou Yuhong, the blue-eyed man, looked at Elder Chang and said with a smile.
"Go."
Elder Chang waved his hand, secretly transmitting to Zou Yuhong, "Your main task this ti is to check if there are any spies among these people. Everything else is secondary."
Elder Chang knew that recent tasks were primarily aid at rooting out spies.
"Let’s go."
Zou Yuhong shouted, waving his hand and bringing out a small blue boat.
After everyone boarded, the boat swiftly took off into the sky, flying off into the distance.
"Junior Brother, we can go back to Yun Zhao Country. My family is next to Ningshan Prefecture; I might be able to see them."
Yu Bu Yu, following beside Chen Yu, said excitedly.
After entering the Holy Land, without the Holy Land’s permission, one could only request to leave once every five years.
Luckily this ti, due to insufficient personnel with even reserve Holy Guards involved, she finally got to leave the Holy Land and visit Yun Zhao Country.
Chen Yu couldn’t help but smile. If it were an ordinary person, who would want to leave this place without good reason? They would rather stay in the Holy Land to improve their cultivation and strength.
The blue boat carried everyone across Holy Heart Lake and arrived near the prefecture.
Via the Transmission Array, the group was directly transported to Ningshan Prefecture.
"We need to investigate the Hao Family, so we will stay with them directly, which also makes the investigation more convenient," said team leader Zou Yuhong.
Before long, the group arrived at a location with beautiful mountain scenery and grandiose palaces, lush and enchanting.
The Hao Family, a large family in Ningshan Prefecture, ranked as a second-tier family throughout Yun Zhao Country, just below the top ten Ancient Clans.
"Who goes there?"
Four guards stepped forward and asked sternly.
"Holy Land Envoys, won’t you report our arrival promptly?"
Zou Yuhong snapped coldly, releasing a powerful True Yuan presence from the Guiyuan Realm, causing the guards to retreat in shock and awe.
They did not know what the Holy Land was, but they knew the people before them were exceedingly strong. One of them imdiately ran back to report.
Before long, the entire Hao Family was abuzz, with the ringing of deafening bells and drums.
Then, dozens of figures flew out simultaneously.
Three were approaching head-on while the others, more than a dozen in total, stood on both sides in two lines, their faces respectful and their eyes occasionally glancing at Zou Yuhong and company.
"I am ’Hao Liang,’ the head of the Hao Family."
The leading white-bearded elder had a fierce look and an authoritative deanor, smiling, "Please forgive us for not greeting you from afar."
