Chapter 231 No Need to Hide Now
When the smoke and dust cleared.
The scene before them caused Song You, Nan Suzhen, and the others to shrink in shock.
The mysterious young man stood motionless, raising his hand to effortlessly catch the old man's heavy punch, while the ground behind him shattered completely.
Wu Shouchen's eyes widened slightly. "What?!"
As a rare ninth-tier grandmaster, even without using his talent, a single punch imbued with his martial arts technique would deal over 500,000 damage, a blow that would be difficult even for an eighth-tier grandmaster to withstand.
But the young man before them only possessed the aura of the seventh rank, how could this be...?
"teacher!"
Song You shouted.
Wu Shouchen snapped back to his senses, dodged backward, and looked at the boy in front of him, breaking out in a cold sweat.
That was close.
"I'll say it again, I'm not from Japan."
Jiang Yuandao.
"Shut up!"
Wu Shouchen ignored him completely. His blood boiled, and he roared:
"The Mark of Fury!!"
The deep red ink patterns appeared, making the old man burn like a flame, greatly enhancing his strength and speed.
"You missed your best chance just now, but I won't give you another one this time!"
The old man stomped heavily on his foot, transforming into a red meteor that hurtled straight towards Jiang Yuan.
And at that very moment.
"Whoosh!"
A blue light flashed.
Wu Shouchen barely managed to turn his head and avoid the blow, but his cheek was still grazed and bleeding.
Upon closer inspection, they were horrified to discover a small blue fish, no bigger than a palm, swimming in the air, its body enveloped in water vapor and covered with strange runes.
It was just a fifth-tier exotic pet, yet it managed to injure him!
How is that possible!
"Buzz".
Spatial fluctuations.
Lanlan, full of enthusiasm, flashed in front of Wu Shouchen and, to his incredulous gaze, lashed out with her tail.
Wu Shouchen used his skill in time, and a blood-red barrier with ink patterns appeared around him.
"Bang!"
The barrier was directly shattered.
Wu Shouchen hurriedly retreated, dodging repeatedly.
Lanlan, with a speed that was comparable to Wu Shouchen's, clung to him relentlessly, dodging the fist imprints he unleashed and then using her skills once more.
【Three Thousand Strikes of Divine Water】
"Splash splash splash!!"
In an instant, a terrifying and vast water element enveloped an area, completely submerging Wu Shouchen.
"teacher!!"
Song You exclaimed in surprise.
Nan Suzhen looked at the mysterious young man with even greater shock and horror.
He was actually a beast tamer.
And the beast pets are actually capable of rivaling a ninth-tier Grandmaster!
What kind of monster is this?!
……
Jiang Yuan watched the battle unfold with great interest.
Compared to before, Lanlan's combat experience has improved by leaps and bounds. Her combat power is so outstanding and abnormal that it is enough to suppress a ninth-level grandmaster. It can only be said that she is worthy of being a mythical existence.
Shen Gongyu walked to his side and tugged at his sleeve.
Jiang Yuan turned his head. "What's wrong?"
Shen Gongyu whispered, "Yuan-kun, have I caused you any trouble?"
Seeing her expression, Jiang Yuan suddenly realized, and chuckled:
"It's just a minor inconvenience."
"I'm not even afraid of the three starter families, let alone a small scene like this."
When he said this.
The young man had a calm expression, his black hair moved slightly, and his handsome face, though flawless, exuded an invincible aura.
The girl was momentarily stunned.
He tapped the hilt of his sword lightly with his fingers.
Jiang Yuan glanced at Song You and Nan Suzhen in the distance. The two noticed his gaze and their faces turned pale instantly.
Nan Suzhen asked tremblingly, "What...what do you want to do?!"
"Let me tell you, the young master is the prodigy of the Song family in Haicheng, a student of the Divine Martial Academy. If you dare to touch him, neither Elder Song nor the Divine Martial Academy will let you off the hook..."
"None of that matters. Tell me, who is the strongest person in Haicheng right now?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Song and You were taken aback.
"It's the King of Zhenhai, what's wrong?" Song You forced himself to calm down.
Jiang Yuan tapped the hilt of his sword lightly: "Oh... a Great Xia king who suppresses the borders of the sea."
"Splash splash splash!"
The sound of the waves grew closer.
He turned his head.
A massive wave, up to thirty meters high, was discovered crashing through the forest and heading straight for them, vast and powerful.
"!!"
Song You and Nan Suzhen were horrified, their minds tense as they faced this scene, which was comparable to a high-level water-based spell.
And before they could do anything.
Jiang Yuan glanced at him sideways.
"Clang—!"
A dazzling blade of light flashed across the sky and earth, cleaving the ground with a thunderous roar and splitting the oncoming waves in half.
Watching the two mighty torrents rush past us.
Song You and Nan Suzhen were completely stunned.
Especially Nan Suzhen.
The beautiful swordswoman, who was very popular in Haicheng and had many admirers, trembled all over. Her pupils dilated as she looked at Jiang Yuan as if she were seeing a god.
As a swordswoman herself, she truly understood the stunning, perfect, and powerful nature of that strike.
Especially the cutting speed.
It's simply... so fast it almost defies time.
Jiang Yuan, who drew and returned his sword in an instant, did not look at the two people, nor at the thousand-meter-long crack that had been cleaved in the ground. Instead, he calmly looked towards the direction of Haicheng in the distance.
It has been 43 days since he last appeared in Nanjiang City. There is almost no news about him online. Everyone probably thinks that he is dead or sinking into the abyss, never to return.
Even the most dazzling stars, once dimmed, will gradually disappear from the starry sky and from people's memories.
The only way is—
Shining brightly once again.
Images of my family and cousin appeared in my mind.
The boy's lips curled into a slight smile.
"The current me is not the same as Jiang Yuan who had little ability to protect himself when he first awakened his talent."
"No one and no force can threaten me anymore. The shadows and the prying eyes in the darkness will be burned away by the flames."
"This time..."
Swish!
Jiang Yuan took a step forward and arrived in front of Wu Shouchen, who had struggled to break free of the water.
In his contracted pupils, a hand grabbed his head.
"I told you, I'm not from Japan."
"You don't understand, do you?"
After saying that...
Jiang Yuan suddenly threw him to the ground.
Under his terrifying power, Wu Shouchen transformed into a meteor and crashed through the ground, falling hundreds of meters before stopping.
"Boom!!"
Under the horrified gazes of Song You and the others.
The black-clad figure standing high in the sky continuously raised his aura, his invincible aura and pressure piercing the sky like a spear, causing dark clouds to gather and red and black lightning to intertwine and flash.
Now that his power has been fully unleashed, he has risen to the top of the Earth's combat power pyramid.
There's absolutely no need to hide it!
What he needs to do now is to tell the whole of Great Xia.
His name is Jiang Yuan.
He's back!!
