Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 189 A guy who could be killed with two punches

The night was deep.

Along the long street, countless men in black followed the two figures timidly, none daring to step forward.

Two figures chased and fled. The one in front staggered, drops of blood falling from his black robe, leaving a clear blood trail on the road.

The person behind him walked leisurely, as if strolling through the streets, following at a leisurely pace.

"Are we just going to watch like this?" On both sides of the street, a man in black watched the scene and asked in a low voice to someone he knew.

"Shh, keep your voice down, are you out of your mind?"

The person being questioned glanced cautiously at the figure in black on the street before quickly pulling him back and whispering:

"You're new here, so you don't know. When the president went up to question him, the guy behind him just casually punched him through the body!"

As he spoke, he seemed to recall that scene, and his expression turned horrified as he shuddered.

"Gulp!" The man in black swallowed hard, his eyes wide with shock. "One punch? Commander...aren't you at the peak of the Battle Spirit Realm?"

"So, look at the city guards now. Does even one dare to step forward?"

As he spoke, he gently patted his friend's shoulder and advised:

"It's your own life. Just go along with everyone else and pretend. It's only a small salary each month, not worth risking your life for. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up!"

On the other side, the tall man the two mentioned was standing at the highest point of the auction house, looking at the scene on the street with a gloomy expression.

"Sect Master, judging from Young Master Bu's condition, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer!" Manager Hu bowed and cautiously looked up at the middle-aged man in front of him, speaking softly.

"Useless! You actually caused such a commotion! Now there's no way to hide it anymore!" The middle-aged man slammed his hand on the windowsill in front of him, sending splinters of wood flying, and roared angrily.

Seeing the two figures approaching the auction house entrance one after the other, he sneered:

"Heh. So brazenly confident, chasing and killing in the street, do you really think my Eight Doors are defenseless?"

As he spoke, a sharp killing intent flashed in his eyes. Having been in the Black Corner Region for so many years, no one here was a coward. Since things had been exposed, they would settle the matter quickly.

As Xiao Bai strolled along, he seemed to sense the killing intent. He looked up at the blurry, imposing figure in the distance and smiled slightly.

Like a cat playing with a mouse, they continued to follow the disheveled figure ahead.

A moment later, a magnificent building appeared before us, with the two large characters "Black Seal" on it gleaming with a cold, eerie light under the dim light on both sides.

"Haha, honored guest! I, Yuan, have failed to greet you properly!"

A hearty laugh rang out in front of the Black Seal Auction House.

"Hehe. Sect Leader Yuan, please forgive my intrusion in visiting!"

A clear voice rang out, and Xiao Bai walked leisurely out of the dark street with his hands behind his back.

"Haha. No wonder, no wonder!" Yuan Yi smiled broadly, but his eyes held no smile whatsoever, only icy coldness. He said:

"I wonder what my son has done to offend the young master, to provoke such a furious reaction!"

Xiao Bai teased, "Sect Leader Yuan, don't you know?"

"I don't know!" Yuan Yi shook his head indifferently. "Today, a priceless treasure of our Eight Doors was stolen. I've been racking my brains trying to find the thief!"

"Godfather, the treasure is on this man, he is the thief!" a weak, hoarse voice interjected.

"Shut up!" Yuan Yi snapped. "This young master is an exceptional man, with an imposing presence. How could he possibly be a thief!"

Then, changing the subject abruptly, he gritted his teeth and said, "It must have been this young master who killed that despicable thief and helped our Eight Doors retrieve the treasure!"

"Please return this priceless treasure, young master. We, the entire Eight Doors, will be eternally grateful!"

"Tsk tsk. Interesting, very interesting!" Xiao Bai clapped his hands and laughed as he looked at the surprised looks around him.

This Yuan Yi actually knows how to uphold righteousness. He wants both fame and fortune. Even in the chaotic Black Corner Region, don't underestimate the power of reputation. Even the most wicked person prefers to associate with people who have a good reputation.

Moreover, it seems they have him cornered; only living people can bring them profit.

He was even more certain that he wouldn't try to explain, because once the little golden dragon was brought out and the news spread throughout the Black Corner Region, Yuan Yi's plan would fail, but Xiao Bai would also be caught in endless trouble.

What a brilliant scheme!

"I do possess something that can be considered a great treasure. Would Master Yuan like to describe its appearance in detail so I can confirm it?" A hint of amusement flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes.

"You really want me to say it!" Yuan Yi's expression changed, turning dark.

Unexpectedly, this kid is so unscrupulous that he wants to make the matter of the Golden Dragon public in front of everyone!

"Speak!" Xiao Bai's smile gradually faded, his eyes sharpening as he surveyed the surroundings, and said:

"You dare call yourself a member of the Eight Doors' most treasured artifacts? You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror!"

Yuan Yi was filled with rage. For so many years, since he founded the vast Eight Doors, no one had dared to point their finger at him and curse him like this.

His fighting spirit surged suddenly, and his imposing aura was revealed. Those around him instantly felt suffocated and uncomfortable, and they retreated frantically.

"What do you mean, 'you'? A mere three-star Dou Huang. If you hadn't been injured this time, I could have killed you with two punches. How dare you covet my things!"

Xiao Bai's robes fluttered in the strong wind brought by this oppressive aura, but his body remained as immovable as a mountain.

"Ha ha."

Yuan Yi laughed in exasperation, his aura intensifying, his tone both angry and mocking as he shouted:

"That's a pity. It's a pity you're seriously injured and weak. I'd like to see how you'll kill me with two punches!"

"You little brat, die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Yi stretched out one hand in a claw shape, with intense energy fluctuations attached to it. His body left a series of afterimages and arrived in an instant.

He grabbed at Xiao Bai's heart and clawed at it fiercely.

A strong wind blew in his face, and his black hair flew wildly. Xiao Bai looked at the claw marks that were getting closer and closer. Without any hesitation, he clenched his fist and suddenly swung it out with a piercing sonic boom.

A claw and a fist collided fiercely in mid-air.

"Bang!"

A loud explosion rang out in the quiet, empty street, making onlookers dizzy and prompting them to cover their ears.

Ripples of air, seemingly tangible, spread rapidly outwards, colliding with the houses and causing them to shake, with roof tiles falling off in a rustling sound.

Under the tense gaze of everyone, the smoke and dust slowly settled, and both figures seemed to have taken a few steps back.

"What an incredibly strong physique!"

Yuan Yi put his hands behind his back, a look of shock and solemnity flashing in his eyes. He could sense that there was no energy fluctuation on the young man's body, which meant that he was not using battle qi.

I felt a stinging pain in my hand; the bones in the arm that had just turned into a claw were broken.

"Cough cough." Xiao Bai coughed twice, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth without making a sound. The meridians in his body, which had just begun to heal, felt a tearing pain.

Right now, he can only rely on his physical body to fight, because all his fighting energy was exhausted after using the Thunder Dragon Sky-Splitting move in the underground magma.

"Damn lizardmen!"

He cursed inwardly. The pressure from the ground made his meridians so fragile that he dared not exert too much force. Otherwise, with his physical body, he could have beaten Yuan Yi half to death with just that punch!

"You are indeed strong, but if it's just physical strength, you'll probably perish here today!"

"The mere thought of hunting down such a prodigy fills my heart with joy, and I'm even a little impatient!"

Although Yuan Yi's eyes were serious, his tone was relaxed and confident.

"Heh. You're not qualified to try and unsettle me!" Xiao Bai shook his head dismissively.

"There are many in this world capable of killing me, but you are the most overconfident of them all!"

"Haha, let's give it a try!"

Yuan Yi laughed loudly, his powerful figure moved, and a pair of energy wings flashing with yellow light appeared behind him. He took out a ghost-headed broadsword from his storage ring. The blade was thick and heavy, and its edge gleamed with a sharp, cold light.

He soared into the sky, hovering in mid-air, holding the sword in both hands, his energy frantically gathering and continuously surging into the blade.

The blade hummed, and after a few moments of rapid flashes of light, a towering blade beam several meters long appeared in the air.

Feeling the terrifying pressure emanating from the sky, Xiao Bai's expression turned solemn.

Does Yuan Yi think he's some kind of freeloader?

"A single, decisive strike that cleaves through the void!"

The snow-white blade, gleaming with a sharp chill, slashed straight down at Xiao Bai on the ground.

As the blade pressed down, Xiao Bai felt a faint pain on his body, as if a knife were cutting through him.

This book has a brand new chapter.

Let's take a look!

"Heavenly Frost Fist!"

Xiao Bai's body was like a furnace, with scorching blood energy surging around him. Red mist swirled around an area of ​​about ten feet in radius. He raised his fist and swung it out fiercely, colliding with the blade light above his head.

"Snap!"

The black stone ground beneath his feet seemed unable to withstand the pressure, suddenly cracking open and turning into stone dust, with half of Xiao Bai's knee sinking into the ground.

"boom!"

The three-story house behind them was sliced ​​in half by the tip of the blade, as if cutting tofu, and then collapsed with a bang due to the shock of the energy emanating from it.

The group of people looked at the huge ditch that stretched for hundreds of meters in front of the auction house and their expressions changed drastically. Was this the power of a Dou Huang expert?

"What a powerful blow! That person should be dead by now, right?"

"Taking such a powerful attack head-on, even if one survives, it will surely be extremely painful!"

As the discussion continued, the dust and smoke on the long street dissipated.

A figure was seen with almost half of its body buried in the ground, motionless. He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the sect leader had really killed it with a single blow?

"Cough cough. You deserve to die!" A voice, cold as ice, rang out softly.

Xiao Bai swallowed the blood in his mouth, looked at the several fragments of inner armor on the ground, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

This is the inner armor that Yunzhi gave him. It didn't even break in the underground magma. I never expected that it would break here today because of a carelessness!

Pulling his legs out of the ground, Xiao Bai stood up and carefully picked up the fragments of inner armor from the ground.

Then, with a flick of his sleeve, a golden light flew out and was swallowed whole before anyone could react.

Then they saw that the figure, whose aura was weak and without any energy fluctuations, suddenly became stronger and more powerful.

A faint rumble of thunder emanated from his body. Suddenly, everyone saw that multicolored light appeared on Xiao Bai's body, and wisps of lightning danced on his body like sprites.

Yuan Yi looked at the young man whose aura was rising and felt a chill run down his spine, as if some unpredictable horror was about to happen.

Without time to think, he raised the heavy longsword in his hand again, and the energy in his body surged wildly, pouring into the longsword.

No matter what he's up to, it's best to strike first. Once someone's dead, what good are all his trump cards?

"Sky-Splitting Earth-Shattering Slash!"

The moment the blade flashed, the young man on the ground stretched out one hand, and a long spear gleaming with golden light appeared in his hand, crackling with lightning.

"Thunder Dragon Rifts the Sky!"

The spear tip, reflecting a chilling glint, pointed directly at the blade's edge in the sky.

"Is this guy crazy! Pointing a gun at me like that, without any real evidence, he might as well have used his fists like he did before!"

"Exactly. All that fuss was for nothing!"

Yuan Yi's tense expression eased somewhat, and he looked at the young man pointing the gun at him with a puzzled expression, wondering what he was going to do.

Just as everyone was expressing their differing opinions, a faint dragon's roar rang out, accompanied by a thunderous roar as powerful as the heavens.

A phantom dragon head, with five-colored lightning flashing on it, emerged from the tip of the spear.

"hold head high!"

With a roar that seemed to thunder, the dragon head struggled and leaped off the spear as if freed from its shackles.

At that moment, everyone in the city heard this awe-inspiring roar, and even the most timid felt their hearts pound with fear.

"hold head high!"

With another exhilarating dragon roar, a lithe body several meters long meandered and hovered in the air for a moment, streaking across streaks of five-colored light, before heading straight up to meet the blade's light.

A massive blade of light swept down from the sky, and a multicolored thunder dragon several meters long soared into the air. The onlookers, who had never seen anything like it before, gaped in astonishment.

As it approached the blade's edge, a thick, agile dragon claw emerged, crackling with lightning, and collided fiercely with it.

"Bang!"

In a flash of lightning, a deafening roar resounded, and the sharp blade of light abruptly stopped its march through the void, as if it had encountered an iron wall, without causing the thunder dragon's claws to tremble in the slightest.

As if it possessed intelligence, the Thunder Dragon stopped the longsword from falling, then its five claws, like curved blades, clenched tightly. With a thunderous sound, cracks spread amidst the cracking of the blade.

Finally, to Yuan Yi's astonishment, it shattered into pieces.

"hold head high!"

Another loud dragon roar rang out, and the thunder dragon flicked its tail, leaving a trail of multicolored light around it before appearing in front of the dumbfounded Yuan Yi.

Before he could react, the dragon's body pierced through his chest and disappeared.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Yuan Yi stared in disbelief at the huge hole in his chest, as if he had been pierced by a spear, transparent from front to back!

"Sect Master!"

Three auras of Battle Kings appeared in the distance, and they exclaimed in disbelief as they looked at the magnificent figure falling like a bird with broken wings.

"The Eight Gates are finished! The Black Corner Region is going to be in chaos!"

Some spies from other forces who were hiding in the shadows were stunned for a while when they saw this scene. After regaining their senses, they shook their heads.

"Indeed! Without Yuan Yi in charge, this lucrative territory of Black Seal City is likely to become a hotbed of conflict again!"

"Have you all forgotten that the one who killed Yuan Yi is still alive? Judging from his tone earlier, if he were to set his sights on Black Seal City, anyone coming to the Black Corner Region would have to think twice!"

Xiao Bai stood in front of the auction house, somewhat exhausted, but his body remained upright, his expression arrogant, which made everyone around him very wary.

"Haha." A hoarse, unpleasant voice suddenly burst into laughter, struggled to its feet, and walked toward Yuan Yi, who had fallen from the sky and died with his eyes wide open.

"Father! He's dead, he's finally dead! Did you see that?"

Xiao Bai coldly watched this scene. Not far behind him, the shadow suddenly shifted, wriggled, and stood upright, transforming into a ghostly figure. It cupped its hands and said:

"Ling Ying greets Young Master!"
