Chapter 1662: Old Ginger Is Spicier!
"O-Old Taishan! What are you...?"
The dozen or so Yan Family bodyguards and experts who’d managed to survive all stared in panic and horror at Yan Hongzhang lying in that pile of bloody mush, their souls practically blown to pieces!
Yan Hongzhang was the Yan Family’s ultimate trump card—if even he had an accident, then the Yan Family was as good as dead!
"Ahhhh! Ahhhh!"
Yan Shuangying also ran over with blood all over his mouth, frantically gesturing at Yan Shuangying, burning with anxiety.
And right now Yan Hongzhang himself was more dumbfounded than anyone, utterly in disbelief!
He didn’t even understand what had just happened. That palm strike he thought was guaranteed to hit somehow got blasted away, and now his whole body’s Qi-Blood was surging wildly, his injuries far from light.
"D-Damn it! What the hell is going on?!"
Gritting his teeth, Yan Hongzhang forced himself upright, his body bathed in blood. He suddenly reached out and pressed several major acupoints on himself, barely managing to halt the damage.
The strongest part of his Returning Life Child Skill lay in its ability to use Inner Strength to boost cellular vitality and rapidly repair injuries.
That was also why he could turn back old age and restore the appearance of a thirty-year-old.
He shoved away the worried Yan Shuangying and the others, then strode toward the Ice Woman, coldly demanding, "What the hell just happened? How did you suddenly gain some kind of abnormal power?"
"You think you deserve to know?" The Ice Woman sneered. "You look young, but you actually have more than a hundred years’ worth of dense Inner Strength. I almost got fooled by you!"
Yes—just now the Ice Woman had been repeatedly forced into a disadvantage. Besides the fact that her Inner Strength really wasn’t as dense as Yan Hongzhang’s, she’d also underestimated him and got careless.
After all, she didn’t know the truth and only saw Yan Hongzhang looking just over thirty.
That age naturally makes people drop their guard—she’d almost suffered a massive loss because of it!
Yan Hongzhang ground his teeth, glanced back, and also saw Jiang Feng behind the Ice Woman, one finger pressed to her back.
He guessed at one possibility—could it be that at that life-and-death instant, Jiang Feng had poured his own Inner Strength into the Ice Woman to help her withstand him?
But that idea was very quickly rejected by Yan Hongzhang himself!
Because he couldn’t accept that reality—how could it be that exaggerated?!
Jiang Feng just putting one finger to her and inputting power was enough to help the Ice Woman turn defeat into victory?!
If Jiang Feng stepped in personally, how terrifying would that be?!
That would overturn everything he believed!
"No matter how freakish you are, I’m killing you today!!"
After regulating his injuries, Yan Hongzhang suddenly let out another furious roar. His Inner Strength exploded as he charged at the Ice Woman like a madman!
This time the Ice Woman didn’t dare be careless again. She reined in the mocking smile, went all out, and also stretched out her hand to condense an Ice Cone, meeting Yan Hongzhang head-on, killing intent surging!
The two experts who’d barely stepped into the Primordial Transformation Realm started a brutal battle right there between the two sides’ formations!
In an instant, heaven and earth changed color, wind and rain whipped backward; even the surrounding weather twisted into something like an inverted tornado, forming a terrifying reverse spectacle!
The Ice Woman might not be good at close combat, but all the wind and rain could be used by her, truly turned into attacks like catching wind and shadows, with sinister, ever-changing techniques emerging one after another.
Yan Hongzhang, whether in battle experience or on-the-spot adaptability, was richer than the Ice Woman. He countered every move as it came, but still couldn’t take her down again in a short time. The two could only fight to an even match, locked in a stalemate!
This kind of situation the Ice Woman could still accept, but Yan Hongzhang absolutely couldn’t tolerate it!
He came here to brutally crush Jiang Feng—so what the hell did it mean that he was now being tangled up by some woman Jiang Feng had casually sent out?!
He screamed and roared hysterically, practically on the verge of madness!
Every punch, every palm, carried explosive power, blasting the air around them into constant distortion and fragmentation; even space itself seemed to shake and be hollowed out, fragile to the extreme!
"Th-This... this is what a Primordial Transformation Realm clash looks like?"
Wu Feng, Fang Wei and the others all stared wide-eyed, watching the two figures moving as fast as thunder, utterly dumbstruck!
Apart from Jiang Feng, no one present could even see the details of their fight. They only knew that wherever the two passed, a gust of fierce wind would inevitably sweep through, with wind and rain swaying violently!
Natural awe and fear rose in their hearts, yet they were completely unable to even get close to that level!
Meanwhile Jiang Feng had already seen that the Ice Woman was once again starting to struggle to keep up.
Still the same saying: on the Martial Arts path, the older, the more monstrous!
Yan Hongzhang had lived more than a hundred years longer than the Ice Woman. Just his killing experience alone was far richer, and his methods against enemies were extremely seasoned and ruthless. The Ice Woman was clearly still suffering on this front!
"Island Country demon girl! There’s an old saying in China: the older ginger is the spicier! You’ve reached this Realm at such a young age, that’s pretty good—but today I’ll erase you, this Demon, and wipe you off the face of the world!"
Yan Hongzhang also sensed the Ice Woman becoming more and more strained, and let out a ferocious grin. He suddenly roared, feinted with one palm toward her left shoulder.
The Ice Woman instinctively dodged, but Yan Hongzhang abruptly shifted his direction, blasting straight toward her chest!
The Ice Woman was caught off guard, shocked!
And it was already too late to put up a proper defense!
Suddenly, a voice sounded by her ear: "Tilt your body thirty degrees to the left!"
The Ice Woman’s brain didn’t even have time to process. She only recognized the voice as Jiang Feng’s secret transmission, so she sent the signal to her body and instinctively slanted to the left!
"Boom!!!"
Yan Hongzhang’s fist, which had turned from palm to punch, brushed right past her chest, missing blasting her away by just a hair!
"Hm?!"
Yan Hongzhang’s pupils contracted. He hadn’t expected the Ice Woman to still have the spare capacity to adapt on the fly!
"When you’re facing an enemy, first your heart can’t show fear. Even if your close-combat strength isn’t as good as his, you can still win through cunning."
Jiang Feng’s indifferent voice continued to transmit into the Ice Woman’s ear.
The Ice Woman was shocked to the core. Could this be that legendary Chinese ultimate skill—secret transmission?!
"This man is good at palm attacks. His moves are wide open and unrestrained, his chest gate also left open, which shows his life gate weak point isn’t on the front of his body."
Jiang Feng said coolly, "But I noticed every time he strikes with a palm, his armpits instinctively contract. That shows his point of power emission is at his armpits—and that’s also where his death acupoint lies."
"Given that, all you need to do is attack both sides of his armpits with everything you’ve got, forcing him to take care of both ends, and his attacks will slow."
"You two are already evenly matched. Once he’s hemmed in and constrained, he won’t be able to threaten you anymore—instead he’ll be suppressed by you."
Every sentence, every word Jiang Feng said poured into the Ice Woman’s mind like enlightenment nectar, making her instantly see the light!
Though she was amazed at how Jiang Feng could observe things so minutely, if she could catch hold of Yan Hongzhang’s life gate death point, her odds of victory would naturally increase!
Just like with a person’s character—no one is perfect, and that’s even more true for those who practice Martial Arts!
Every Martial Artist has their own weak points. It’s just that most people can’t figure out their opponent’s weakness, and those with weak points know to guard them well, giving their enemies no chance to exploit them!
Right now, Yan Hongzhang’s flaw had actually been seen through by Jiang Feng and transmitted to the Ice Woman. She of course seized the chance and went all-out, launching a full-speed assault on Yan Hongzhang’s soft underbelly!
