307 Kill Chase (1/2)
Jiang Mingxiao's gaze was fixed on the battle arena. In his heart, he kept praying that the Sect Grand Elder would win, or at least that he would not lose too badly and would have enough strength to protect them. Otherwise, being in the forbidden land, where could he escape to? Deep into the forbidden land? What difference would that make?
Not only were the people of the Jiang Clan panicking, but the people from the other three Aristocratic Families were panicking as well. Although the Wang Clan only had a vendetta against the Jiang Clan, they were unsure of Mo Wen's attitude towards them. If he also saw them as enemies, then they would most likely not have a pleasant end.
”Old thing, since I've drawn you out, then don't even think about leaving alive.” Mo Wen took one step forward, and his silhouette traversed a distance of dozens of meters in a flash, appearing in front of Jiang Quanfu in the blink of an eye. Jiang Quanfu was now injured, and he had expended more than half of his energy. It was impossible for him to defeat Mo Wen now.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Quanfu was shocked. ”Little b*stard, you premeditated this all along!” He suddenly realized that Mo Wen had plotted everything the whole time. Even his appearance was within Mo Wen's plan. He was laughable for thinking that Mo Wen was young, frivolous, and was just showing off.
Only now did he understand that he was the prey in the net, and Mo Wen had been the hunter all along. But who would have thought that a youth not even in his twenties could have such terrifying ability? Absolutely nobody would have thought that the purpose of his ostentatious act was to draw out an Embryonic Breathing realm strong practitioner. In the eyes of normal people, how could a youth defeat an absolute strong practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm?
Although Jiang Quanfu was cunning and insidious, he had not expected this to happen.
Mo Wen's speed was as fast as lightning. In his rush, Jiang Quanfu could only manage to send out a palm strike.
Palm and fist collided!
A dull thud was heard. In the next moment, Qi waves rolled out, and Jiang Quanfu's body was once again sent flying.
”Old man, that's why I said you are dumb.” Mo Wen stood in the gale with his clothes fluttering, but his body had not moved an inch. In the next moment, he had disappeared from his original spot, again appearing in front of Jiang Quanfu.
A punch once again shot out towards Jiang Quanfu.
Even an Embryonic Breathing realm strong practitioner could not withstand so many punches. Each punch had the force of 150 tons. If this continued, Jiang Quanfu would most likely end up dead on the ground.
Jiang Quanfu once again flew backwards with a dull thud. Under the shockwaves of the terrifying power, blood was beginning to seep out of his orifices. His clothes were damaged, and his image was becoming more and more embarrassing and hideous.
”Little b*stard, we are irreconcilable. Do you think you can kill me so easily? Dream on.” Jiang Quanfu's hair was disheveled as he roared out these words in a frenzy. Then, borrowing the power and inertia of Mo Wen's punch, he escaped deep into the forbidden land behind him like a bolt of lightning.
He knew that if he continued to battle Mo Wen, he would surely die. Now, escaping was the only way he could survive. As long as he lived another day, once he had completely recovered and joined forces with his elder brother, Jiang Quangui, he believed that they could kill this brat.
Jiang Quanfu's hate for Mo Wen had reached its peak. He was the dignified Dafang Sect's Grand Elder, but he had ended up being embarrassed at the hands of this youth in front of the younger generation of the Four Aristocratic Families. His authority and image were down the drain.
”Escaping?” Mo Wen looked at the silhouette that had sprung off a ways in a flash. He narrowed his eyes, and his lips curled into a cold smile. The next moment, his silhouette also disappeared from the spot, chasing behind Jiang Quanfu. The two of them, one in front and one behind, moved away from the altar. They entered deep into the forbidden land, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The preliminary candidates remained in their spots, looking at each other. Their eyes were full of astonishment and fear, especially the people from the Jiang Clan. Their bodies were shivering uncontrollably.
The Sect Grand Elder was an absolute strong practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm. When faced with Mo Wen, he had lost so badly. Not only that, but he had lost his reputation. In the end, he had run off embarrassingly, leaving them behind.
”Brother Mingxiao, what do we do now?” a person from the Jiang Clan asked, slightly wavering. His gaze was fixed on the depths of the forbidden land. Although Mo Wen's silhouette had completely disappeared, the fear in his heart had not reduced one bit and instead, became stronger and stronger.
If Mo Wen failed to kill the Sect Grand Elder, when he came back, would he find them to let off steam? Now it was as though they were trapped in a cage. They could not escape even if they wanted to.
Jiang Mingxiao gritted his teeth and said, ”Wait, maybe the Sect Grand Elder can help us buy some time.” Now, they could only wait where they were. Once the passageway's spatial energy had settled, they would then escape. As for hiding deep within the forbidden land, he had never even thought about it. He was not as crazy as Jiang Mingxun.
Aside from the people of the Jiang Clan who were curled up in their spots not daring to leave, the people of the other three Aristocratic Families also did not dare to take any action. One by one, they crouched below the altar, waiting excruciatingly for time to slowly pass.
Compared to the people of the Jiang Clan, they were relatively at ease. After all, their Aristocratic Families had no animosity with the Wang Clan. Mo Wen might not kill them.
