Chapter 22 - The Most Dangerous Man (1/2)
Demonic cultivation had a single pursuit: power. Meanwhile, the righteous path followed set rules to form a solid foundation and advance one step at a time. Because of this savage pursuit, demonic cultivators were seen as madmen, resorting to any despicable means to further their might. This was why righteous cultivators feared them.
Fighting them was tantamount to fighting a madman.
With this knowledge in mind, You Quan began to regret fighting Zhuo Fan. Despite being confident in his success, fighting an unscrupulous demonic cultivator would be sure to come with negative repercussions on his part.
“I need to settle this quickly.” You Quan’s eyes flashed with murderous intent and dark-blue energy came out of his palm.
The air around him chilled in an instant and even Luo Yunchang, who was ten feet away, felt the cold biting her.
She was aware of its danger and her heart was in a panic. But before she could warn Zhuo Fan, You Quan turned into a black shadow and charged. All the flowers along the way wilted.
“High mortal ranked martial art, Hell Claw.”
Bam!
The blackish cold energy struck Zhuo Fan’s chest until the latter spat blood along with pieces of ice.
“Humph, I have your heart. No matter what you’re trying to do, it’s useless.”
You Quan was pleased his sudden strike worked and relaxed.
There were four layers of power between them, and even if demonic cultivators, no matter the weird techniques or savagery, once one’s heart was in a vice, he couldn’t use most of his power. It was the same as being powerless.
Sun Yufei cheered at her cousin’s success, “Kill him.” While Luo Yunchang and the others were nervous.
Nodding inside, despite knowing his cousin was rash and prone to anger, You Quan had to admit her words this time were true. A demonic cultivator enemy must never be left alive.
Because a demonic cultivator’s vengeance will always be ruthless.
Now, another dark-blue palm aimed for Zhuo Fan’s head, “Humph, die!”
Luo Yunchang and the rest were in shock, hearts in their throats.
But following an explosive sound, Zhuo Fan’s head was fine while You Quan was flung like a ragdoll, trailing a bloody arc in the air.
“Blood Palm!” Zhuo Fan bellowed, staying in the move executing stance.
“That’s impossible!”
You Quan crawled to his feet and clasped his chest with an incredulous expression, “I sealed your heart, how can you still use martial arts?”
“Humph, there’s nothing bro Zhuo Fan can’t do!” Luo Yunhai stuck his chin out as Luo Yunchang and the others chuckled in relief.
But then, Zhuo Fan spat out another mouthful of blood. A sudden hole was now adorning his chest, which leaked blood.
“Wh-what’s going on?” Luo Yunchang was stunned while Captain Pang rushed to support the collapsing Zhuo Fan.
Only You Quan understood and cackled, “He seemed to have exploded his heart on purpose when I used my skill on him to break out of Hell Claw’s grip. He won’t have long to live.”
“What did you say?” Luo Yunchang was nervous.
Ignoring her, You Quan ridiculed the hazy eyed Zhuo Fan, “Such a pity. If you were at my stage, your move would have ended with mutual destruction. But it ended with quickening your death. Even hurt, I can finish you off.”
He rushed for Zhuo Fan and, though his speed dropped, it wasn’t something Luo Yunchang and the others could cope with.
“No!” Luo Yunchang jumped in front of Zhuo Fan with her arms spread. You Quan sneered, “He-he-he, young miss Luo, I would hate to kill you.”
Whoosh!
The Luo clan members saw You Quan’s claw but were powerless to stop it from approaching Zhuo Fan’s head.
You Quan wanted to kill Zhuo Fan in front of them.
Sensing the incoming danger, Zhuo Fan gave out a strange smile.
Bam!
Suddenly, the blackish claw was caught in a vice-like grip.
“Mid mortal ranked martial art, Hidden Dragon Claw?”
You Quan raised his head to find a warm face greeting him. It belonged to a youth of around eighteen, dressed in golden clothes and a scholarly face, yet having a sharp pair of eyes.
“Long Jie?” You Quan gnashed his teeth.
Sun Yufei was in shock, “Veiled Dragon Pavilion…”
“You Quan, do you need to kill for every little mistake?” Long Jie smiled.
“Humph, that’s my business, butt out.”
Shaking his head, Long Jie might look kind, but there was a certain determination in his eyes, “I was ordered by Uncle Jiu to protect the Luo clan. If you want to kill him, you have to go through me.”
“Why is the Veiled Dragon Pavilion suddenly…”
Sun Yufei trembled, never imagining the Luo clan could gain the help of Veiled Dragon Pavilion.
The Sun clan was under the protection of Hell Valley and even though the Luo clan only had four people, they had the Veiled Dragon Pavilion to back them. Based on background, the only clan that could fight the Sun clan in Windgaze City was the Luo clan.
