Otherworldly Desert Dust

Fortunately, Liang Shou was somewhat mentally prepared.

He took a step back, then suddenly burst forth with a High Martial punch, the wind from his fist like a chilling whirlwind, furiously slamming towards Wu Hen's cheek.

Faced with such a tactic, Wu Hen reacted with lightning speed, tilting his head slightly to dodge the punch.

He lifted a foot and kicked brutally towards Liang Shou's belly.

This street fight move perplexed onlookers who began to doubt whether this so-called Heavenly Light group was all just a bluff.

Liang Shou crossed his arms, blocking Wu Hen's kick with his forearms.

His eyes sharp, his body suddenly erupted with True Qi, turning him into a forge, from which hot steam burst forth.

He had intended to use True Qi to force Wu Hen back but found Wu Hen had suddenly circled behind him and threw a punch at the back of his head!

Liang Shou was shocked.

Once True Qi is released, the back of a True Martial Artist's head is actually a weak point. He had never crossed hands with this person and didn't understand how his weakness was known to his opponent.

Scared, Liang Shou threw himself forward, tumbling awkwardly to the ground.

Once he had landed, he immediately flipped back up to his feet, with his fists wrapped in True Qi, and violently unleashed more than a dozen consecutive punches at Wu Hen!

Each punch carved terrifying whirls into the heavy city walls, leaving one fist hole after another.

Wu Hen not only didn't retreat but stepped forward.

He dodged each punch flawlessly, as if he had foreseen every attack from Liang Shou, to the point that after the latter's violent barrage, Wu Hen had managed to walk right up to his face!

Again he lifted a foot, kicking towards Liang Shou's body.

It was as if a young man, encountering a vicious dog, didn't bother with words, just a fierce kick!

Liang Shou was kicked by Wu Hen and became a bit unsteady, his True Qi protecting his body. However, Wu Hen also possessed Holy Breath, and when he concentrated it in his legs, that kick appeared ordinary, but it could shatter mountains upon impact.

"Like barking like a dog?"

"Learned a little bit of True Martial arts and acting all high and mighty here?"

"Did I even give you face?"

Wu Hen kicked one after another, his golden blood boiling within him, with every kick landing at different angles. At times, slamming into Liang Shou's chest, other times hammering at his knees, and at times going straight for below the belt!

Liang Shou channeled his True Qi to protect that sensitive area particularly.

But Wu Hen suddenly feinted an attack, raising his hand to slap Liang Shou, sending him spinning without direction!

Liang Shou was dazed by the slap.

He had always thought Jiao Liecheng was foolish for using attacks that were simple yet effective in True Martial combat, often presenting the greatest threat. Facing such attacks, one only needed to reciprocate with the same mindset.

But in a real exchange with Wu Hen, Liang Shou realized that these straightforward moves were mixed with various underhanded tactics, unpredictable and defensive. And each time he attacked, Wu Hen easily foresaw it, putting Liang Shou under immense pressure, which led to hesitation and doubt, and eventually, a straightforward slap in the face.

This kind of slap, without focusing force, became hard to defend due to its deceptive nature.

It was like a Martial Arts master constantly overpowering you with heavy punches and kicks, which you could handle if focused, but if he spat at you while being serious, there was nothing you could do.

So, do you dodge the spit or not? If you dodge it, would the opponent use a killing move next?

To the layman, it's all technique, but to the expert, it's irritating.

"Mr. Jiao, attack his back!" Finally, unable to withstand it any longer, Liang Shou put aside his pride and called for his brothers.

Jiao Liecheng had been intentionally slow, wanting Liang Shou to realize this young guy was not simple and had definitely learned some unusual cultivation method.

The two established their offensive, front and back, starting to attack Wu Hen in a pincer movement.

Wu Hen started to get serious too.

He stirred the Holy Infant Breath within him, his skin turned pure golden, and the aura emitting from his pores like tiny flames wrapped around his physique, commanding respect without anger!

"Holy Golden Blood, huh!" Jiao Liecheng saw this and immediately understood why the other dared to challenge him.

He also had reached this realm, no wonder his Holy Breath was elusive, and simple punches and kicks could wield such pressure.

After Jiao Liecheng regained his breath, his body once again gleamed like molten gold.

Knowing that the Beast Form Holy Technique was ineffective against Wu Hen, he engaged in close combat, transforming his Holy Breath into a thick golden energy blade, repeatedly striking Wu Hen's body.

The stone city walls were chopped into several pieces by his Holy Energy Blade, and Jiao Liecheng felt Wu Hen's movements were no longer as relaxed. Finally, a smile crept onto his face, and he pressed step by step, not giving Wu Hen a chance to breathe.

From behind, Liang Shou also unsheathed his Heavy Sword with a forceful strike, believing strength could prevail over skill. If he could cut with such a grand momentum, it didn't matter how strong the opponent's Perception was, they would have only to retreat!

Now they were flanking him front and back; there was nowhere for Wu Hen to retreat to, and he had to face them head-on.

Wu Hen had no intention of retreating either. He raised one hand high, ominous inscriptions in black rapidly appeared, forming strands of Black Silk.

The Black Silk entwined, creating an Ominous Bronze Spear.

With a sweep of the spear point, a black river surged forth suddenly, winding its way up to Cloud Sky!

Jiao Liecheng and Liang Shou were pushed back by the tremendous force of the black river. As they were trying to discern Wu Hen's next move, they noticed that the black river turned into a drifting rain in the sky, drenching the stone walls of the city from all directions.

Raindrops fell and hit both Jiao Liecheng and Liang Shou, and Wu Hen could hear the pitter-patter clearly, even with his eyes closed, he knew exactly where they were.

Wu Hen, facing Jiao Liecheng, suddenly charged with his spear.

The tip of the spear turned into a dark glow, piercing toward Jiao Liecheng's chest.

At the same time, Liang Shou also charged from behind, all his movements in the rain clear to Wu Hen's ears.

Without looking back, Wu Hen swept out a black tidal wave with the butt of his spear, forcing Liang Shou to retreat, then suddenly stretched out a palm and fanned it again toward Jiao Liecheng.

Jiao Liecheng grew angry from embarrassment, not understanding why his opponent insisted on humiliating him like this.

Annoyed, Jiao Liecheng stopped dodging. If he had to withstand a slap, he would – his Holy Energy Gold Blade could chop off his neck!

"Slap!!"

Filled with rich Holy Energy, the palm became immense in the rain, like a Vajra Palm, and sent Jiao Liecheng flying with his blade, all the way to the stone city tower!

Blood gushed from his nose, and his cheekbones shattered.

Jiao Liecheng would never have expected that this time, he had gathered all his Holy Energy and struck with the Holy Power Palm.

This was a force that could not be withstood!

At the place where the stone tower crumbled into rubble, Jiao Liecheng, his face bloodied and swollen like a pig's head, climbed to his feet, his eyes full of fury and murderous intent!

Utterly shameless.

The palms seemed fake at times, real at others, making Jiao Liecheng feel like he was being played like a monkey!

On the other hand, Liang Shou was equally speechless. Big brother, would you please dodge? Facing such a heavy Vajra Palm and you resist it – has your intelligence been slapped away by those hits?

Liang Shou stepped over the surging black tides, the Heavy Sword in his hand cleaving through the air.

Wu Hen heard his move and didn't dodge but instead hurled the Ominous Bronze Spear directly at him.

The Ominous Bronze Spear moved with incredible speed, vanishing in a flash.

Liang Shou's reactions were quick; he somersaulted in the air, dodging the hurled bronze spear.

Just as he was about to readjust his posture for another strike, he suddenly felt an exaggerated surge of force from below.

This force made a tiny being in an instant explode with the power a hundred, a thousand times its size, and when he looked down again, it was no longer a human figure but an imposing mountain chasm!

"Rumble rumble rumble~~~~~~~~"

The Cang Xia Fist roared into the sky, amidst the black torrential rain; the mountain chasm was vast and majestic, making Liang Shou's gathering of True Qi seem like a bird striking against a cliff.

Liang Shou took the battering of the mountain chasm in the air, his True Qi collapsing, his body being blasted into the sky like chaff in the wind.

It's a pity that outsiders couldn't sense the energy of this punch; from their view, Liang Shou had simply taken a solid hit and was then spiraling up to heaven.

Finally, Liang Shou regained some consciousness after the dizzying blow in the storm, only to find the Ominous Bronze Spear waiting for him!

The fact that the spear missed him the first time was no worry, now came another strike!

"Swoosh!"

The bronze spear suddenly danced, transforming into a tail of black mire, hitting the just-ascended Liang and sending him directly to the ground!

Liang Shou was completely unprepared.

The punch's terror was beyond his expectation, and his opponent had never used this power before.

Now, the bronze spear could even pause mid-air, as if it had anticipated he would be sent flying, creating a perfect combo technique, slapping him down like a fly...

Liang Shou had faced many opponents, but none as mixed in skills as this one.

He understood boxing and had Holy Power, mastered Ancient Steps, had acute Perception, rarely used his spiritual weapon, and what was utterly absurd was that the weapon seemed to fight on its own...

"Liang Shou doesn't have a worthless twin brother or something, right? Isn't he a Human Clan Wise Person, recognized by the Human Clan's Divine Realm as a strong potential fighter? How come he doesn't seem much stronger?"

"Maybe that person has mastered a cultivation method that reduces intelligence and suppresses strength. Look, Jiao Liecheng also seems unable to exert his full power, like an adult hitting a child."

"Who is he, anyway? He doesn't seem that powerful, but also, he feels really powerful."

The Holy Sect Disciples had originally set up a simple banquet on the opposite city tower, wanting to enjoy the spectacular contest of Red Port Saint Sect's prince, but the battle was not glamorous at all; instead, it was primitive and oddly bizarre...

Of course, there were smart people. They realized they had been worshipping the wrong person; Jiao Liecheng was not the strongest disciple of the Saint Sect. This domineering and arrogant man was!

"Has your family's lord always been this powerful?" Liang Xiangyue watched Liang Shou be beaten and her eyes rippled with joy and excitement.

She had come to Wu Hen looking for a job because she was at odds with Liang Shou.

Now that she saw Liang Shou being beaten to this state, she suddenly realized that she might have stumbled upon a treasure trove of a young lord!

"Yeah, yeah, always very powerful, just modest," Yang Qin nodded vigorously. She once had no discernment, like the others, but now she was unwavering in her belief that even the dominant and strong side Wu Hen revealed was just the tip of the iceberg.

Yang Qin had assumed that in a Holy Sect like this, where the Human Clan's superior forces gathered, enduring humiliation and swallowing grievances was the norm, so she dared not tell Wu Hen about being hit.

She had not expected that upon learning about it from Liang Xiangyue, Wu Hen would directly storm the banquet, and seeing him dominate his two opponents, Yang Qin felt moved and grateful, and above all, regret!

Regret for her short-sightedness, regret for her selfish opportunism, because now she might have had a chance to officially become part of his team! Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire
