Chapter 273 - 186: Clear Spirit Divine Wood
Luo Wei!
Fang Yue hadn’t expected to run into this person here, at this time.
’Could he have been following me this whole time?’
At the thought, his brow furrowed, and his expression turned grave.
Fang Yue’s gaze sharpened as his entire body tensed. He was ready to fight at a moment’s notice.
"Haha... Fang Yue, this time, you’re dead for sure!"
"After you die, your family will follow in your footsteps soon enough. You can all keep each other company on the other side."
Luo Wei laughed boisterously as he walked toward Fang Yue, step by step. The closer he got, the more violent the Primordial Qi fluctuations around him became, like the signs before a coming storm.
His eyes were filled with cruelty and a thirst for blood.
With each stride, Luo Wei’s aura continued to climb.
The next moment, like a bloodthirsty demonic tiger, Luo Wei exuded a dense, murderous aura and lunged at Fang Yue.
His charge was as swift as a thunderclap. The friction between his powerful frame and the air produced a sharp sonic boom.
Faced with such an attack, Fang Yue felt that his opponent’s Martial Dao techniques seemed simple and direct, with almost no variation.
However, as a late-stage Qi Sensing Martial Artist, Luo Wei had honed his Martial Arts techniques to perfection.
Furthermore, he was at the late stage of Qi Sensing; in terms of realm alone, he was a cut above Fang Yue.
’If I dodge now, I’ll be put at a disadvantage.’
’I have to take this head-on!’
Fang Yue took a deep breath, and the strength in his body erupted.
Qi Refiners smelt Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, allowing their bodies to develop different characteristics based on the Qi. The Earth Element True Skill enhanced defense and strength.
On top of that, Fang Yue had condensed the Earth True Body, which provided an astonishing boost to his defense and strength.
Now, unleashing his full power, he stomped his foot violently.
BANG! With a loud crash, the solid ground actually shattered from Fang Yue’s stomp.
Using the rebound force, Fang Yue launched himself into the air and charged straight at Luo Wei.
BOOM!
A massive explosion rang out as Fang Yue and Luo Wei clashed head-on. A powerful Qi Force spread in all directions, kicking up a huge cloud of dust and sand.
Both figures staggered, sent flying backward.
Luo Wei took three steps back before stabilizing himself.
Fang Yue, in contrast, was forced back more than ten steps.
At that moment, feeling the slight numbness in his fist, Luo Wei’s eyes filled with profound shock.
’This... such immense strength, almost on par with a late-stage Qi Sensing Martial Artist... How is this kid’s power so terrifying!’
The killing intent in Luo Wei’s eyes grew even stronger.
’What realm is this kid even in to be this strong? If I give him a few more years, how unbelievably powerful will he become?!’
’Therefore, I must kill Fang Yue now to eliminate a future threat.’
In the brief moment Luo Wei was stunned, he realized Fang Yue had turned to flee instead of fighting.
His speed was astonishing.
Even he hadn’t imagined that Fang Yue, who possessed the strength to clash with him head-on, would be so cowardly as to run away immediately.
"Hmph, trying to escape? Let’s see how far you can get!"
Seeing this, Luo Wei didn’t rush to pursue. Instead, he casually followed in the direction of Fang Yue’s escape.
He wasn’t the only one hunting Fang Yue this time. Illegally killing an Inspector from the Observatory was a serious crime, and he certainly wouldn’t take that risk alone.
Since their goals aligned, Wu Wende had sent his Scholar’s Attendant. With one in the open and one in the shadows, they were determined to corner and kill Fang Yue, leaving no room for accidents.
Sure enough,
it wasn’t long before Luo Wei saw him.
Fang Yue’s figure gradually became clearer. Behind him, the short but even more sinister and terrifying Wu Family’s Scholar’s Attendant was strolling forward.
His strides weren’t large, but his speed was just a fraction slower than Fang Yue’s.
’It’s a wolf at the front and a tiger at the back!’
When Fang Yue had traded blows with Luo Wei just now, he realized their strength was comparable; they were evenly matched. If they fought, it would take more than a hundred moves to determine a winner.
If no one else interfered, Fang Yue wouldn’t have minded facing him to test who was truly stronger.
But Fang Yue could sense another person watching him.
Moreover, that person’s strength was not to be underestimated, which was why he had used the clash with Luo Wei as a chance to escape.
He just hadn’t expected the hidden enemy to reveal himself and force him back.
’Looks like I have no choice but to fight for my life today.’
Fang Yue’s gaze turned sharp as he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. Luo Wei was already an evenly matched opponent, but the person pursuing him from behind made his skin crawl.
That person’s strength was likely beyond the Great Success stage of Qi Sensing; he should be an early-stage Innate Realm expert.
But in the Secret Medicine Martial Dao, the Innate Realm was also known as the Grandmaster realm.
This was because, upon reaching this realm, a Martial Artist had pushed their physical body to its absolute limit. They could unleash immense power with a mere lift of a hand or foot.
Against an expert of this realm, ordinary Martial Artists couldn’t even touch the hem of their clothes.
"Fang Yue, I admit you’re impressive. Incredibly talented to have reached this level at such a young age! But you provoked someone you shouldn’t have. So remember this: in your next life, open your eyes and don’t make the same mistake of offending the wrong people," Luo Wei said in a low voice.
As his voice fell, his entire body was already charging toward Fang Yue.
He flexed his arms, circulating the Primordial Qi in his body to its peak. His muscles instantly swelled, as if forged from steel, stretching the skin tight around them.
