Chapter 315 - Seal (2/2)
Fang Qiubai shook his head in the end, praising the kid to new levels, [He always liked taking people by surprise.]
Grandmother and Long Yifey’s eyes lit up. Under the imminent threat of Huangpu Qingtian’s earth ranked martial art, Zhuo Fan escaped unscathed and even retaliated. Their hopes of winning against Regent Estate were rekindled.
[The kid doesn’t disappoint, ha-ha-ha…]
The trio laughed to themselves…
Huangpu Tianyuan watched it all with a thin smile. He spoke calmly to Leng Wuchang, but every elder heard it too, “Qingtian is no match for the little monster. We can only depend on Sir Leng’s plans if we are to ever defeat him.”
“Worry not, Estate Lord, everything is going according to plan.” Knowing the man aimed to curb the elders’ view of the eldest young master, Leng Wuchang merely nodded.
Huangpu Tianyuan smiled and enjoyed the show.
From the cloud of dust hovering above the hole, Huangpu Qingtian burst out; quite a sorry sight. He wasn’t able to get his footing straight though as a sharp wind approached from behind.
Huangpu Qingtian flashed around, face to face with Zhuo Fan’s bloodshot eyes. The sharp Lightning Wings traced his face, leaving a bloody gash.
Huangpu Qingtian’s heart was wrecked with fear, his body shaking.
[That was too close!] Thanks to his quick reaction, he had kept his head from being impaled. It was his first time being in actual mortal danger.
As he grew increasingly cautious, Zhuo Fan’s bloodthirst only rose.
Zhuo Fan was the only one to pose a threat to his life.
Huangpu Qingtian grabbed the outstretched wing and punched Zhuo Fan with the other hand.
The blow shot forth with such might, it aimed to explode his head.
Zhuo Fan wasn’t worried, using the golden halo in his eye to whisk away right before it touched him.
Huangpu Qingtian once again found himself getting struck from behind. Zhuo Fan used his wing to whip the man’s back and leave a nasty gash. Purple Lightning singed through the skin and forced another cough of blood out of him.
Zhuo Fan pressed his advantage, following with more blows. Huangpu Qingtian tried to put up resistance but he couldn’t muster the strength.
Zhuo Fan was an enigma. He couldn’t get a read on his next action and was caught by surprise each time.
The scene turned odd, to say the least. Zhuo Fan hounded Huangpu Qingtian like a ghost, whipping him from every direction. Every strike left bloody wounds on Huangpu Qingtian’s body, while he was coughing blood, yet not once could he fight back.
It was more along the lines of him wanting to, but being unable to find his target.
The man moved around like a ghost, covering his tracks.
Huangpu Qingtian found himself in his most humiliating moment. As if he was Zhuo Fan’s punching bag and received all the man’s lashing. Fated to take it all but could never lash out himself…
The audience was speechless. [How come the head of the six dragons was reduced to being flogged?]
By contrast, Zhuo Fan was having the time of his life, consumed by the thrill of revenge.
Huangpu Qingtian had had enough at this point and roared, “What the hell are you guys gawking at! Activate the array!”
“But eldest young master, didn’t you say we should wait…” You Yushan mumbled.
Huangpu Qingtian barked at him, “I can’t wait any longer. Do it!”
You Yushan saw the eldest young master had lost his poise and grace. He knew time was of the essence and signaled the men in the forest.
The battlefield was then shrouded in a barrier. Zhuo Fan was just about to change places again when he was frozen stiff, unable to control space any more.
“A sealed space!” Zhuo Fan frowned and snorted inside.
He finally understood what Unwonted Contriver had cooked up. The mastermind saw even through his Divine Eye of the Void…
