Chapter 1990: Teeth Knocked Off (1/2)
However, the great distance didn’t seem to exist for the arm.
The palm stretched open and took on Bin Ge’s lethal palm strike.
No, more accurately, the destructive force of Bin Ge’s attack was absorbed into the palm. Bin Ge’s attack weakened and dimmed immediately the moment it landed on the palm. The entire sequence was like watching a flower bloom and wither in a split second.
Bin Ge blanked for a second and was dumbfounded as he watched the destructive power of his attack disappear into the palm.
Bai Hui, Bai Luo, and Ban Ke, too, were stunned.
Although Bin Ge’s strength was second to Bai Hui, he was still a late-First Order Sovereign Realm expert who possessed battle strength stronger than the average Sovereign Realm expert. Since his lethal palm attack was dispersed easily, then this person’s strength...?!
Huang Xiaolong and Ao Ping, too, were astounded by the unexpected result.
When Bin Ge had launched his attack, Huang Xiaolong had planned to summon the fourteen-winged angel’s soul, Heavenly Hall, City of Eternity, and the one hundred Undead Netherguards to fight it all out.
While everyone was still in shock, the thin arm shrunk back, attracting everyone’s attention to a slender figure that had appeared on the horizon. As the figure approached, the sun in the sky elongated his shadow on the ground.
This thin old man held a wooden cane in one hand, and he had a slightly hunched back. He looked as if a gust of wind could easily blow him away.
The old man approached them, walking slowly. The billions of miles between them seemed nonexistent, and it felt as if the old man was standing in front of them instead of at the other end of the horizon.
One, two, three steps, and before anyone realized, he was already standing with them at the Boundary Ancestral Mountain.
When the old man stood in front of them, Bai Hui, Bin Ge, and others shuddered upon seeing his face. Apprehension spread through their hearts as the four of them quickly saluted, “Dean!”
Dean! Reverence Moon Old Man!
Not only Huang Xiaolong and Ao Ping, but even Dun Hao was shocked by Reverence Moon Old Man’s appearance.
This was the first time Dun Hao came face to face with Reverence Moon Old Man.
Ao Ping and Dun Hao hastened to kneel in salute, “Greetings, Dean Reverence Moon!”
Whereas Huang Xiaolong slightly bowed as he saluted the old man. It was similar to how he had greeted Bai Hui and the other three deputy deans. “Dean.”
Finally here? Huang Xiaolong was baffled.
Bai Hui, Bin Ge, Dun Hao, and the others were about to get up and straighten their bodies, but Reverence Moon Old Man’s face darkened as he snapped, “I didn’t tell you all to rise!”
Bai Hui, Bin Ge, and everyone’s actions stiffened, and embarrassment flashed across their faces. However, none of them dared to defy Reverence Moon Old Man’s words. Thus, all of them returned to their saluting postures.
Reverence Moon Old Man subsequently permitted Ao Ping to rise and continued to neglect the rest.
“Do you know why I didn’t permit you all to rise?” Reverence Moon Old Man spoke flatly.
Bin Ge braced himself and answered, “We do not.”
“Don’t know?” Reverence Moon Old Man harrumphed coldly. The wooden cane in his hand swung out, striking Bin Ge in the face. Bin Ge was startled, but just as he wanted to dodge, the wooden cane had already hit him. The force knocked him backward and sent him rolling over the ground. He rammed into a boulder in the distance.
