Chapter 171: Double Pupil Advancement
BAM!!
Wang Yuanchen’s attack landed on the figure!
With a SPURT, the figure coughed up a mouthful of purple blood. He was sent flying, crashing heavily into Cheng Yuan!
Everyone was stunned by the scene.
Especially Cheng Yuan’s relatives.
Hongbing had always been so quiet and reserved. How could he suddenly burst forth with such speed?
He had been farther from Cheng Yuan than the old man, so how did he instantly rush in front of him?
And besides, why was the blood Hongbing coughed up purple?
Cheng Yuan was the only one who knew the truth. He held his father anxiously. "Dad, are you okay?"
Cheng Hongbing grinned. "I’m fine. In fact, I feel a bit lighter. It seems like that was just some stagnant blood I coughed up."
’Stagnant blood?’
Hearing this, the members of the Cheng Family relaxed slightly. Hongbing had been in a car accident a few years ago—hit by a large truck and sent flying several meters. It seemed normal that he might have some stagnant blood in his body.
And it also seemed normal for stagnant blood to be a darker color.
Of course, Cheng Yuan wouldn’t be so easily fooled by Cheng Hongbing’s nonsense. He placed a hand on his father’s wrist to check his pulse, and his expression turned a bit strange.
’What the hell?’
’Dad isn’t injured at all. On the contrary, a crack has appeared in the shackles within his body.’
’In that moment of crisis, Dad must have momentarily broken through the constraints of those shackles.’
Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but grimace. ’What kind of constitution does Dad have? He took a full-force blow from a Divine Realm Peak master and is completely fine. How is that even possible?’
’If all the shackles in Dad’s body were to break, just how terrifying would he be?’
’A Grandmaster?’
’Or even a Martial King?’
Wu Xiuli rushed over, looking at Cheng Hongbing with a worried expression. "Old Cheng, are you all right? Don’t you scare me!"
Cheng Hongbing smiled and shook his head. "I’m fine, I’m great. I’m a cockroach that can’t be killed. Even a big truck couldn’t kill me!"
Wang Yuanchen was also starting to question reality. He looked at his palm, bewildered, then back at the perfectly fine Cheng Hongbing, completely unable to understand.
That brat’s father was just an ordinary person with no energy fluctuations in his body. How could he take a full-powered strike from him and be completely fine?
Even a fellow Divine Realm Peak master would have died from that move!
Not even a Grandmaster would dare to face it head-on!
Wang Yuanchen refused to believe it. He roared, "Try taking another one of my attacks!"
Wang Yuanchen channeled his True Essence and charged madly toward Cheng Hongbing!
Of course, Cheng Yuan wouldn’t let Wang Yuanchen harm his father. He took a sharp step forward and roared, "Old bastard, your opponent is me!"
However, Wang Yuanlang cut in from the side. "Cheng Yuan, you little thief, your opponent is me! Big Brother, kill the little thief’s father! Let’s collect some interest first!"
"Good! You hold back that little thief Cheng Yuan!"
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Wang Yuanlang unleashed three consecutive moves, blocking Cheng Yuan’s path. Cheng Yuan was too late to help; he could only watch helplessly as Wang Yuanchen pounced on Cheng Hongbing!
Cheng Yuan could only let out a furious roar, "Xiaozao, Youchu! Save my dad, quickly!"
All of the Jujube Tree Immortal’s branches swayed frantically, lashing out with all their might!
Unfortunately, Wang Yuanchen was too fast. The Jujube Tree Immortal couldn’t reach him in time!
Shen Youchu also chased with all her strength, but she was too slow. Not only could she not catch up, she was actually getting farther and farther away from Wang Yuanchen!
Seeing his father about to be attacked again, Cheng Yuan grew frantic. He felt a surge of sinister fire rush into his eyes, making them burn so badly he was nearly blinded!
Wang Yuanlang, of course, wouldn’t pass up such a golden opportunity. He slammed a vicious punch into Cheng Yuan’s chest!
Cheng Yuan was sent flying. A tremor ran through his chest, and he was clearly lightly injured. But Cheng Yuan paid no mind to his own injuries, forcing his eyes open wide to see what was happening to Cheng Hongbing.
A dull THUD echoed!
It was like a great hammer smashing heavily against a wall!
Cheng Hongbing was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing hard against the trunk of the Jujube Tree Immortal!
The Jujube Tree Immortal trembled violently, shedding a shower of branches and leaves.
"Old Cheng!!"
"Dad!!"
"Hongbing!!"
"Uncle Cheng!!"
...
Everyone couldn’t help but cry out in alarm. In their minds, after suffering such a devastating blow, Cheng Hongbing was surely done for!
Wang Yuanchen stood with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the collapsed Cheng Hongbing. "Punk, weren’t you so tough? Show me how tough you are again—"
Before he could finish his sentence, Wang Yuanchen suddenly choked on his words!
Because Cheng Hongbing had gotten up, full of life, and was even dusting himself off. He shouted, "Xiaoyuan, leave this old bastard to me! His attacks are like a tickle; they can’t hurt me at all! You focus all your energy on taking down the other two old bastards!"
Cheng Yuan was utterly flabbergasted!
He was absolutely certain that if he had taken that blow, he would have been severely injured at best, with a high probability of just kicking the bucket!
But his dad was completely fine!
’What kind of physique is this?’
’He’s practically a Demon Beast!’
Cheng Yuan finally relaxed. He turned to Wang Yuanlang with a blank expression. "Old bastard! This young master is about to get serious!"
With his worries assuaged, Cheng Yuan became like a fierce tiger descending a mountain. He instantly suppressed Wang Yuanlang, beating him back step by step!
"Third Brother, help me!"
Outmatched, Wang Yuanlang could only cry for help.
"Alright, Second Brother, I’m coming!"
The Jujube Tree Immortal felt immense guilt for failing to stop Wang Yuanchen. It certainly wasn’t about to let Wang Yuanfeng go to Wang Yuanlang’s aid, so it immediately sent several branches to block Wang Yuanfeng!
Wang Yuanlang was on the verge of defeat, yet Wang Yuanchen didn’t move to help. Instead, he suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Xiuli.
"Punk, you really are tough! I can’t hurt you! So I’ll kill your wife first!"
With that, Wang Yuanchen lunged viciously at Wu Xiuli!
The Jujube Tree Immortal was shocked and quickly mobilized all its branches to intercept him!
But the Jujube Tree Immortal had already been damaged several times and was no match for Wang Yuanchen!
In a single exchange, all its branches were blasted to pieces!
Bathed in a shower of wood splinters, Wang Yuanchen pounced on Wu Xiuli like a tiger on its prey!
Wang Yuanchen was too despicable. Neither Cheng Yuan nor Cheng Hongbing had ever imagined he would suddenly attack Wu Xiuli, and they were too far away to rescue her in time!
They could only watch helplessly as Wang Yuanchen closed in on Wu Xiuli!
Facing Wang Yuanchen’s attack, Wu Xiuli was filled with despair. Resigned to her fate, she could only close her eyes.
’Goodbye, Old Cheng! Goodbye, Xiaoyuan! Goodbye, my family! In the next life, I want to be your family again!’
"No!! Don’t hurt my mom!!"
Cheng Yuan let out a wail like a cuckoo crying blood!
At that moment, Cheng Yuan’s Anger Value reached an unprecedented height!
Wave after wave of sinister fire slammed madly against his Double Pupil!
CRACK!
Cheng Yuan felt something loosen in his Double Pupil. It had finally broken through its shackles!
Pain!
A tearing pain!
Cheng Yuan felt his Double Pupil throbbing, as if it had magnified several times over! The pressure in his eyeballs was unbearable; it felt like they were about to explode!
BZZZT!
Cheng Yuan felt his Double Pupil suddenly expand to fill his entire eye socket, then contract rapidly until it was almost invisible!
The next second!
Cheng Yuan felt as if the entire world had changed. He could now see tiny particles in the air, and could even faintly perceive molecular structures!
Cheng Yuan could clearly feel that these tiny particles could be controlled by his Spiritual Power!
Cheng Yuan was overjoyed!
’My Double Pupil has gained a long-range attack ability!’
’But, it needs time to gather Spiritual Power. Only with enough Spiritual Power can I unleash an attack strong enough to instantly kill a Divine Realm Grandmaster!’
With a thought, Cheng Yuan’s Double Pupil began to gather Spiritual Power. Stray energy particles in the air converged frantically, and his eyes began to emit an astonishing light!
Brighter and brighter!
Cheng Yuan was confident that as soon as the energy was fully gathered, he could definitely kill Wang Yuanchen in a single blow!
However, Cheng Yuan was extremely anxious. He needed time, but time was the one thing Wu Xiuli didn’t have!
’Is Mom going to die here?’
