Chapter 233 – Return Prime Stone (2/2)
The cage shape expanded covered the sky above Ye Wei’s head.
“Interesting.” Ye Wei mutter, slowly lifted his shoulders to feel the immensity of the restricting stance’s effect. “This is actually something I can learn from.”
“Now!”
“Let’s go!”
Zhou Huan and Qian Dao chuckled, shook their bodies to dry themselves a little and flew towards the stone.
‘Third evolution!’
‘Peerless Sword!’
Ye Wei’s Qi became concentrated, powering the improved sword Qi. Hiss cold gaze darted onto the approaching trio while three hundred and sixty swords swept towards Zhou Huan and Qian Dao in a cycloning motion.
After training for the past twenty days, Ye Wei learned to utilize his advance understanding of the stance in combat.
‘The stone is mine! The Qi swords have the momentum of rivers! They are no weaker than mid-Earth level!’
“Phrooop!”
There were no sense of comfort left in either Zhou Huan or Qian Dao’s body. They could see the Qi swords were going to land in the matter of seconds, but they could already feel the swords’ edged on their faces through the blaze. They tried grabbing the flying stone but then retracted their bleeding hands almost the exact moment.
“Pop!” A crisps sound radiated from Ye Wei’s feet as he escaped Shi Kun’s zone of intensified gravity.
Ye Wei quickly reached his arm outwards. He grabbed the black crystal, bypassing the trio’s resistance with speed and force .
“I told you, it’s mine.” His cold gaze fell onto Shi Kun.
The trio looked at each other, frustrated, each of them angry that they could not stop the initiate from acquiring a return prime stone despite the advantage of number. None of the three could bear to imagine the veterans’ reaction after hearing what happened in the secret realm today.
“He did it! He is my idol now!”
“Hahaha, all three veterans were four-star returned prime Warriors but they couldn’t even react in time! That’s how fast Ye Wei is!”
The initiates were feeling motivated, encouraged by Ye Wei consistently retaliation against the bullies. They all began to take pride in being one of those who started in the Million Star palace the same year as Ye Wei did, moved by his strength and shocked by his capabilities.
“If he is only a little stronger than I am, I might be jealous. But he is just so far ahead, there is no point to envy. I need to learn from him.” Hong Hai muttered while clenching his fists.
Zhou Huan and Qian Dao quickly recovered and leaped back to Shi Kun’s side.
“Brother Kun, if this doesn’t work out, we might as well just leave the Black Dragon Valley. Our allies will leave us.”
“Qing Mu will never forgive us!”
They both looked at Shi Kun, the highest ranked amongst the trio, for an answer.
“His body is at four-star returned prime level but so are we. All we have to do is not to underestimate him” Shi Kun gritted his teeth and glared at Ye Wei, “we will rip the stone from his cold hands.”
“Get him!”
“We need to take control!”
Qian Dao and Zhou Huan channeled their Qi, their rage-filled energy situated a mile wide radius.
“I see you don’t like giving up.” Ye Wei stared at the trio, tightened his grip on the stone as he evaluated his position.
‘I can handle each one of them but they are by no means weak. I can probably hold my ground for a few minutes before they find a way to work together and fight me as a team, then I will be done for…’
‘Unless…’ Ye Wei kept calculating the variables, while feeling the warmth of the stone in his hand.
“Hand over the stone now or we will have to make you!” Shi Kun screamed desperately, ready to get his hand dirty as his reputation was at stake.
