Chapter 209 - Fire Bending (2/2)
Blacksnake suddenly laughed and announced: “Chen Beixuan, why don’t you stay here and enjoy the company of such a beauty?”
He sprung up like a snake and flew up. He eventually landed on the center of the dance floor, crus.h.i.+ng a few railings in the process.
“Ah!”
Many people shrieked in fear and the boys and girls who had been swaying with the music dispersed like a herd of scared ducklings. Even Bai Hao was startled by the development and rose to his feet to investigate.
Sister Rouge s.h.i.+vered. She also noticed the man with a baseball hat sitting across from her, however, she never expected him to jump off the second floor so suddenly. The railings he had smashed through were made out of special alloys and bulletproof gla.s.s, that could withstand an impact with a car.
“Oh f.u.c.k! He is a superman!”
The cigarette slipped out of Dong Youqian’s gaping mouth, but the young man didn’t even notice it as he was stupified by the turn of the events.
“You won’t get away!”
Chen Fan rose to his feet slowly and the shot out an arm at Dong Youqian.
“I need your lighter.”
Suddenly, a large flame lanced out from the small zippo lighter in Dong Youqian’s hand and turned into a fiery drake. The firedrake writhed toward Blacksnake as Chen Fan hopped off the second floor to the dance floor below.
“What the f.u.c.k?”
Dong Youqian collapsed to the ground like an idiot; it was too much for him to comprehend and so he could only stare.
Sister Rouge was frozen in her seat and one of her shaky hands still holding a wine cup. A moment ago, she had fantasizing how the romantic night with the young man would turn out, but there and then, she was seeing a battle between the X-men.
“Kaboom!”
The firedrake flew across the room like a twisty flaming rope and hovered above Blacksnake. The Bai family of southeast China was well known for their fire bending abilities, yet, even Bai Wuji would be stunned by Chen Fan’s sublime skills.
“I told you Chen Beixuan, you won’t catch me.”
Blacksnake let out a peal of laughter despite being surrounded by fire. Suddenly, his body turned into a puff of dark smoke that quickly spread across the entire night club. In a blink, the club was pitch black. Adding the panic creams from bystanders, it felt like the end of the world was coming.
“There is nowhere for you to hide.”
The dark smoke was made from a special formula that contained fine particles. It was darker than ink. However, Chen Fan didn’t need his eyes to see. He could sense the presence of Blacksnake using his Divine Will and he registered that his target had smashed through a wall and escaped to the back alley. He took a step toward the direction of the back alley and flashed out of the view.
After a while, the smoke in the club finally subsided.
Bai Hao and his friends stood silently and looked at the tattered night club stupidly.
“Xiao Han. You have been telling me the truth all the while…” Bai Hao blurted out.
“Of course! His battle on the West Lake was ten times more terrifying than this! This… this is.. nothing.” Young Lord Han said with a smug smile.
He was as afraid as everyone else, however, seeing Bai Hao’s stunned look, he felt a little relieved.
“I told you so!”
Dong Youqian had also collapsed on the ground shaking uncontrollably. He had been planning to teach the young man a lesson but it seemed like the joke was on him.
By then, Chen Fan had followed Blacksnake out of the Bacardi.
The two exited the club and emerged out onto a quieter back alleyway. In the dark corners, a few couples hid in the shadow, making out with each other.
However, the sudden appearance of Blacksnake through the wall started them and scared them away.
Chen Fan followed the a.s.sa.s.sin for a few blocks and finally stopped at an even narrower alleyway. Blacksnake knew he could not outpace Chen Fan, and so he might as well face him.
“Chen Beixuan, this is where you will die.”
Blacksnake turned around and saw Chen Fan was already walking toward him.
The two were about ten meters apart. Despite the poor lighting in the alley, light shone in both of their eyes threatening to penetrate the night. Blacksnake slowly arched his back and made a hissing sound. He looked like a giant viper on a hunt.
As an elite a.s.sa.s.sin, he was well versed in many things, including fighting.
He used to use his snake inspired fighting technique to kill a renowned Mixed Martial Arts Master.
“Shu!”
A green Blade Aura sliced through the dark night.
Chen Fan didn’t waste a single word and attacked directly using Azure Wood Qi Blade.
