An unadorned strike.
A full-force attack, colliding with a thunderous impact, instantly causing air currents to explode and buildings to collapse.
Blood filled the mouths of both as they tasted its tallic scent.
Wu Hongzhou couldn’t help but be secretly shocked... As the Vice Sect Leader of the Cuowu Sect, his strength was second only to the Sect Leader.
Yet he never expected that Xu Lingjun secretly had such a formidable expert hidden behind him.
Soone seemingly stronger than himself.
Especially as the other side struck with ferocious montum, those blood-red eyes like a fierce beast... clearly, the opponent had the upper hand, but for so reason, he felt as if the opponent had been driven by him into a desperate situation.
Precisely because of this desperation, it appeared even more perilous!
"Kill~~!"
Roger missed his strike and realized the opponent was also a formidable adversary.
Fury surged in his heart; he never expected that such a disgraced Prince in Han Yun City would have such skilled experts hidden around him, and react with such speed. Although he had launched a sudden attack with a montum akin to a bolt of thunder, the opponent’s quick response managed to preempt the attack—a tough enemy indeed!
If he ignored such an opponent and turned to kill Han Yun City, he would likely be severely injured by him in turn.
But even if he succeeded in killing him now...
He was already exposed.
Furthermore, to have a chance as good as this again was almost impossible.
Upon thinking this, his heart was consud by rage.
Without hesitation, one missed strike followed by another, like thunder and lightning, causing mountains to collapse and aiming directly at Wu Hongzhou.
Wu Hongzhou imdiately changed tactics, eting the strike with a reverse palm... yet midway, he transford the palm into a fist, then into claws, and finally into a finger.
A fist ford a palm technique, a palm ford a finger force, a finger turning into a fist force.
The move was beyond ordinary expectations, but the True Qi condensed like countless strands of fabric flowing upstream, launching a bold challenge against the boundless thunder.
"Cuowu Sect!"
Upon one glance, Roger recognized the other’s background.
Once part of the Martial Mansion, with innate hostility towards the Sect, he showed no rcy in his attack.
The two clashed fiercely once more.
"Wow~~~"
Though Wu Hongzhou’s move was unpredictable, in absolute strength, he was slightly inferior, as blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
Yet seeing the opponent’s slightly pale face, it was clear he too was not well off...
The gap in strength between the two was minimal, and if the fight continued, it would likely end in mutual ruin.
Yet, recalling what he traded to Marquis Xia Wu and what was promised to him...
A matter concerning his manly dignity, Xu Lingjun was already his last hope.
If he couldn’t successfully capture him, it would all be in vain, and if the Sect’s Supre Martial Skill leaked out, it would be a certain death scenario.
"Ahhh... Today, no one can stop ..."
Wu Hongzhou howled skyward.
Though knowing his chances of victory weren’t high, he understood that in such a narrow path, the brave win; the opponent might not necessarily win.
Both harbored hearts unwilling to retreat, knowing that if they didn’t defeat the formidable enemy in front of them, their objectives would be difficult to achieve.
The next mont, they collided once more.
True Qi clashed violently, air currents swirling around fiercely, shocking the surroundings.
Different True Qi intersected and roared with an explosion no less powerful than a mighty bomb, amidst the roar... countless stones shattered, splashing in all directions.
From the tavern outward.
In a range of hundreds of feet, all around, the buildings suffered greatly, like a field in a thunderstorm, shattering everywhere.
Accompanied by piercing cries for help.
In the buildings on both sides, countless innocent bystanders fled in panic...
A battle between two Peak of Profound Realm experts, still in the bustling market.
Yet Xu Lingjun and Han Yun City were not in a residential area, but rather a remote part of the comrcial street, and these comrcial streets inherently had exits all around, which prevented casualties.
Even so,
Under the boundless True Qi power of the two, there were still many injured...
If not for the tily rescue by Xu Lingjun and Han Yun City, there might have already been casualties.
Once those injured were hastily moved outside the combat range, Xu Lingjun and Han Yun City also withdrew from the battle circle, watching the fierce battle above the recently devastated tavern.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared, True Qi bood.
Every move contained extrely strong power; though not with world-destroying might, it made one truly marvel at the terrifying energy humans could unleash.
It had affected an entire street...
Hiding in the shadows.
The heart still couldn’t help but thump violently.
These two were both experts, feeling stronger than even the one who once put them in a bitter struggle, Marquis Xia Wu.
No matter which one...
If the other hadn’t suddenly appeared and disrupted the attack.
They both would have been caught in a tough fight today.
Recalling their recent collaboration.
Han Yun City was skilled in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, while Xu Lingjun had Xiaoya’s assistance... both detected the enemy’s surveillance and deliberately created a flaw to lure them into attack.
Sure enough, these two hadn’t coordinated, and instantly clashed with each other.
And now escaping danger, Xu Lingjun and Han Yun City simultaneously asked each other, "When did you provoke such a powerful enemy?"
After asking, they fell into a deathly silence.
After a long ti.
Han Yun City sighed helplessly, "It might be a killer sent by that old thing Zhou Qianmo? The one who attacked used thunder in their strikes, sowhat like the rumored Cosmic Pirate King... How interesting, in rumors, the Cosmic Pirate King was imprisoned in the Nanyun Martial Mansion, who else could have released him?"
Xu Lingjun said speechlessly, "Weren’t there no evidence of you killing Zhou Mu? Or did you openly consu a Primordial Martial Pill?"
"It’s just that we’re still too naive; do they need evidence to act? Zhou Mu dies, and naturally, I have the greatest suspicion, there’s no doubt about that."
Han Yun City’s face turned dark, saying coldly, "It seems Lin Diguang didn’t do as I thought... what is this old man thinking?"
"What?"
"Nothing... but for you, it clearly involves two different groups."
Xu Lingjun said speechlessly, "It shouldn’t be Zhou Qianmo, Pavilion Master Zhou has been kind to , could it be that Marquis Xia Wu’s affair has been exposed?"
Inwardly, he thought it unlikely; Marquis Xia Wu’s treasure was inherently secretive, how could it have been exposed?
"It truly is Cuowu Sect people!"
Han Yun City rubbed his face fiercely, saying, "Unexpectedly, we were so discreet in our actions, yet the enemy still found us, and now it seems, each of us gets to wear one hat of bla, I get Zhou Mu, you get Marquis Xia Wu."
Xu Lingjun: "Don’t put it so crudely; indeed, we did it, that’s beyond doubt, so it’s not bla per se. I’m just curious how I exposed myself; surely Marquis Xia Wu didn’t tell others about planning to cause trouble ahead of ti before he died... only for them to suspect ?"
"It’s possible, but don’t worry, they don’t have evidence. Otherwise, Cuowu Sect would have already co openly and with great fanfare to cause you trouble, instead of sneaking around attacking like this."
Han Yun City turned to look at the distant battlefield still erupting fiercely.
Saying, "Hope those two perish together; otherwise, we’re in trouble... I originally planned to host you to taste the Imperial Capital’s delicacies, and as long as we two fought a match each day, going out for a al afterward would also make sense, but didn’t expect this unexpected situation. It seems I must retreat to seclusion and quickly break through the Profound Realm, or else if encountering enemies, even escaping might be a problem."
"Sa for , it seems I should stay low-key in the anti, which isn’t much of a problem for ."
Xu Lingjun thought of Sister Yaya, who was still limping at ho, and felt he could nestle in her dormitory for a year.
"Let’s go, before they notice sothing amiss, it’ll be hard to leave later. Goodbye."
Han Yun City waved his hand and walked out.
And Xu Lingjun stood there without moving...
Han Yun City asked, "What’s wrong?"
"Nothing, just let report it first."
Xu Lingjun looked at the almost completely destroyed street in the distance, taking out his phone, saying, "Causing such destruction, I can’t believe no one in the Imperial Capital manages it?"
"Indeed, that’s a good idea, this should be handled by the Divine Soldier Guard, I’ll report it instead, you better not expose yourself."
Han Yun City also took out his phone.
