Chapter 150: Pulled
Yun Wanhe slowly raised his hand.
"You came here for this?"
"I came here for you."
Yun Wanhe laughed.
"Finally."
Shen Tian didn’t laugh with him.
"I know what happened."
The smile disappeared.
Yun Wanhe’s eyes became colder.
"...What?"
"Your master."
The clearing became silent.
Yun Wanhe’s aura fluctuated.
Shen Tian continued.
"He went looking for you."
"..."
"And you killed him."
"Shut up."
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
"You killed the man who took you in."
"I said... Shut up."
"He trained you."
Black Qi exploded outward.
"SHUT UP!"
Trees bent violently.
Leaves tore from branches.
Shen Tian didn’t move.
Yun Wanhe glared at him.
"You don’t know anything!"
Shen Tian’s expression remained cold.
"I know enough."
"No."
Yun Wanhe stepped forward.
"You took everything!"
Shen Tian stared.
Yun Wanhe pointed at him.
"Every opportunity! Every victory! Every reward! You show up... And suddenly everyone looks at you!"
His voice grew louder.
"My master praised you! The elders praised you! Chi Lingxi..."
His jaw tightened.
"She looked at you like..."
He couldn’t finish.
Shen Tian understood.
For once...
He didn’t make a joke.
He didn’t taunt him.
He simply said,
"And that made you kill your master?"
Yun Wanhe froze.
Shen Tian took one step closer.
"Don’t put that on me."
Another step.
"You made that choice."
Yun Wanhe’s eyes turned red.
"I WASN’T IN CONTROL!"
Shen Tian looked at the ring.
"Then I’ll remove the thing controlling you."
Mo Tianxue’s voice suddenly screamed inside Yun Wanhe’s mind.
[MOVE!]
Shen Tian vanished.
Yun Wanhe barely reacted.
His arms crossed.
BOOM!
A fist smashed into his guard.
The impact sent him through three trees.
Yun Wanhe hit the ground.
Rolled.
Stopped himself with one hand.
His eyes widened.
[Fast...]
Shen Tian appeared above him.
Yun Wanhe kicked upward.
Shen Tian twisted.
Avoided it.
His heel descended.
Yun Wanhe rolled away.
BOOM!
The ground exploded where his head had been.
Yun Wanhe jumped to his feet.
Black Qi gathered around his arms.
"Demonic Heaven Shattering Fist!"
He punched.
A massive black fist formed from condensed Qi.
It tore across the clearing.
Shen Tian raised one palm.
His Domain appeared.
The black fist entered it.
Immediately...
It slowed.
Yun Wanhe’s eyes widened.
The attack stopped inches from Shen Tian’s hand.
Then...
Shen Tian closed his fingers.
The entire technique collapsed.
Black Qi scattered like smoke.
"..."
Mo Tianxue became serious.
[Domain control.]
[Exceptional.]
Yun Wanhe gritted his teeth.
"Again!"
He charged.
Their fists collided.
BOOM!
Another shockwave exploded.
Yun Wanhe attacked relentlessly.
Punch.
Elbow.
Kick.
Palm.
Demonic Qi strengthened every movement.
His combat experience from his previous life was no joke.
Every attack targeted something vital.
Every feint led into another strike.
Every movement flowed naturally.
Against someone stronger...
He would have been terrifying.
Against Shen Tian...
It wasn’t enough.
Shen Tian caught his wrist.
Yun Wanhe’s eyes widened.
Shen Tian smiled faintly.
"Got you."
He pulled.
Yun Wanhe stumbled forward.
Shen Tian’s knee struck his stomach.
THUD!
Air exploded from Yun Wanhe’s lungs.
Shen Tian released him.
Then backhanded him across the face.
Yun Wanhe spun through the air.
He crashed against the mountainside.
Stone shattered.
Before he could recover...
Shen Tian appeared.
Grabbed his jacket.
Pulled him forward.
And punched him directly in the face.
BOOM!
Yun Wanhe flew across the clearing again.
He hit the ground hard.
Blood ran from his mouth.
Shen Tian walked toward him.
Not rushing.
Not smiling.
Yun Wanhe pushed himself up.
His arms shook.
"You..."
Shen Tian continued walking.
"You’re stronger."
"..."
"Much stronger."
Yun Wanhe’s expression changed.
Then Shen Tian added,
"But you’re unstable."
His confidence shattered.
"Your Qi is fighting itself. Your emotions are controlling the technique. And that ring..."
Shen Tian pointed.
"Is using you."
Mo Tianxue immediately snapped.
[Do not listen.]
Yun Wanhe shouted.
"Shut up!"
Shen Tian stopped.
"...Was that to me?"
Yun Wanhe froze.
Mo Tianxue became silent.
Shen Tian understood.
"Talking to the ring?"
Yun Wanhe’s expression twisted.
Shen Tian sighed.
"Yeah. We’re done."
He disappeared.
Yun Wanhe tried to retreat.
Too slow.
Shen Tian grabbed his right hand.
Yun Wanhe’s eyes widened.
"No!"
Shen Tian’s fingers closed around the ring.
The moment he touched it...
Black lightning exploded.
CRACK!
Shen Tian’s sleeve burned.
Xu Ning appeared.
[Host!]
Mo Tianxue roared from within the artifact.
[RELEASE ME!]
Shen Tian’s green eyes narrowed.
"There you are."
He pulled.
The ring tightened around Yun Wanhe’s finger.
Black Qi wrapped around his entire arm.
Yun Wanhe screamed.
"STOP!"
Shen Tian increased his Domain pressure.
The air around Yun Wanhe’s hand distorted.
"Get."
The ring shook.
"Off."
Golden Qi surged.
The black ring finally tore free.
A blast of darkness erupted.
Yun Wanhe was thrown backward.
Shen Tian caught the ring.
For one second...
Everything became silent.
Then...
The world cracked.
Literally.
A thin black line appeared in the air.
Shen Tian stared.
Xu Ning’s eyes widened.
[Host...]
The line expanded.
Space split apart.
A massive vortex opened beneath both men.
Yun Wanhe tried to escape.
The suction caught him.
"What the hell?!"
Shen Tian jumped backward.
The vortex expanded again.
It caught his Domain.
Dragged him forward.
Shen Tian looked at the ring.
Mo Tianxue laughed.
"If I cannot remain here... Then we return home."
Shen Tian’s expression changed.
"Home?"
The vortex swallowed Yun Wanhe.
Shen Tian followed a second later.
The mountain clearing became empty.
Then...
The crack closed.
. . .
Back at the Shen mansion...
Xu Ning’s projection flickered violently.
She had been linked to Shen Tian through the system.
For one terrifying second...
That connection nearly vanished.
Then stabilized.
But weakly.
Very weakly.
Xu Ning stared.
[Host?]
No response.
[Host?!]
Nothing.
She immediately flew toward the living room.
Shen Yan was there.
Yin Suyi.
Ling Shuangxue.
Bai Xue.
Qin Ruobing.
Li Lian.
Ruan Yizhen.
Chu Zijin.
Chu Mei.
Chu Chuchu.
Chu Luoshen.
Several had gathered after hearing that Shen Tian had gone after Yun Wanhe.
Xu Ning appeared in the doorway.
Everyone looked toward her.
