253 Facade (2/2)
Fang Yuan sighed and pushed Ruan Junxian forward.
As they approached each other, the two elders behind Ruan Ming started to muster their elemental force, making the situation rather tense.
In the vicinity, everyone was extremely tensed up.
Just as Ruan Junxian was halfway from reaching his father, something happened!
With a snicker, Fang Yuan executed his shadowstep and came in front of Ruan Ming, striking a claw out!
”What a thief!”
Ruan Ming glanced at him and mustered his elemental force as he was about to destroy the Green Blooded Qilin.
Beside him, the two elders exclaimed and struck the force of their spiritual meridians out.
All of this was planned before. If Fang Yuan wanted to snatch the Green Blooded Qilin, he would have to endure the strike from both Meridian Opening Wu Zongs! It was the perfect plan!
With a sinister smile, Fang Yuan dodged them.
”Bang!”
Unable to do anything, the Green Blooded Qilin was shattered to pieces as Ruan Ming was left stunned.
”Haha... Do you really think I'm after this thing?”
With a laugh, he pointed his right index finger out and a red sword essence appeared.
A sword's essence would strike as far as 30,000 miles, and a sword's radiance would blind 19 regions!
”Ah!”
The fight between highly skilled martial artists would mean that any mistakes would lead to the outcome of the fight. As the two Wu Zongs had predicted Fang Yuan's intentions wrongly, they had to dodge the sword essence with much embarrassment.
They were inferior to Fang Yuan from the beginning and now, they were panicking.
”Stay down!”
Behind Fang Yuan, his spiritual meridians formed and transfigured into a spiritual armour covering his whole body. As he came closer, he struck a claw out at Ruan Ming.
Under the attack of Sixth Elemental Force, being a normal Wu Zong, Ruan Ming could only do so much. Even after the Second Elemental Force exploded from his Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique, it was not enough. His neck was gripped on and his mind went blank.
”Father!”
Within seconds, Fang Yuan had already forced the two Meridian Opening Wu Zongs back and had captured Ruan Ming.
Ruan Junxian's expression changed as his eyes became bloodshot.
He finally understood that Fang Yuan had only revealed his Meridian Opening cultivation to him for him to trick his few elders and immediately felt regretful.
He never knew that this young man would be so dangerous!
”Mmm... It's just another two Meridian Opening Wu Zongs. Why not take both of them with me as an assurance!”
After capturing Ruan Ming, Fang Yuan glared at the other two elders, and they could sense danger in his eyes.
It was an unplanned surprise for him to be able to capture so many members of the Ruan Family.
”Thief!”
At this moment, there were sounds coming from the foot of the mountain, and a group of people were arriving.
The person leading the pack was an old man with white hair. Behind the old man, there were 6 spiritual meridians forming, making him appear like a giant.
”Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique? This must be the elder head to have reached such a level of cultivation! He should be in the Tiger Ranks!”
Fang Yuan was mildly shocked. As he looked at the group of people behind, he noticed that someone was pointing at him.
As vibrations from their voices spread, Fang Yuan became aware of what was happening. Outside his actualised dream world, a grey fog was attempting to enter.
”Buzz!”
In the next moment, the 8 Gates Sword Array shook and the red sword essence flashed around, reducing the grey fog to nothing.
”A curse master?! Or a dream master?”
Fang Yuan smiled. With the protection of the soul in his actualised dream world, it was an extremely effective defence against attacks from spiritual wills. This was especially so for fights among dream masters, as the main battleground would be in their actualised dream worlds.
As he looked down, he realised that most of them were spitting out blood.
”They have indeed called for reinforcements. These should be the highly skilled people in Yiwu County... forget it!”
He did not want to continue fighting and promptly left.
After all, he had already gotten what he wanted.
Furthermore, although there were only a few highly skilled people in Yiwu county, they would still give him trouble if they combined forces.
”Go!”
Before he left, he flicked his finger out. Suddenly, there appeared another sun in the sky. The sword essence from the red sword was like the brilliance from the sun. As it shone down, it seeped through the vegetation and rocks and blocked the group of people who were giving chase.
Everyone was shocked at slowed down as they witnessed Fang Yuan escaping into the woods.
”Brother!”
As the two elders saw the elder head, they were embarrassed.
”Who would've guessed that that crazy person was after Ruan Ming!”
The elder head gave a cold look. ”Although I had already rushed here, it seems like I was a little late!”
Without caring about Ruan Junxian, he looked at the people behind. ”How is Brother Qing Yun?”
”That person cultivates in both spiritual techniques and martial arts and has an extremely powerful spiritual will. Brother Qing Yun initially wanted to cast a spell to confuse him, but little did he know that he would experience backlash!”
A middle-aged woman shook her head. ”When did your Ruan Family anger such a strong enemy? If I knew he would be so strong, I wouldn't have agreed to help out!”
”We're sorry about this!”
The elder head of Ruan Family gave a bitter smile. ”I am also confused about this. However, rest assured that I will not get any of you implicated in this. After this, we'll deliver gifts as a form of compensation!”
With this, the few highly skilled martial artists who had arrived to help out became a little more amiable, but in the elder head's mind, he had already vomited blood countless times.
