This fist was like a meteorite crashing down on Bo Ri. The terrifying power not only made a sound of breaking through the air, but when it fell on him, a shockwave had also spread out in all directions.
Crash!
After the dazzling light, the shockwave sent all the surrounding tables, chairs, and benches flying.
Fortunately, as Bo Ri had been too cruel when he was torturing Qin Fang just now, all the customers in the restaurant had fled a distance away, allowing no one to be hurt.
But even a few meters away, many people stood unsteadily and fell to the ground after receiving the impact of the shockwave.
“Good fist techniques!”
Bo Ri’s figure was blasted back several meters with the punch. A number of tables were crushed, and all the flooring under his feet was turned into debris.
However, he didn’t seem to be in any serious condition. He twisted his arms, and his eyes showed a satisfying expression. He stared at the rough man and said, “Very well! You deserve to be the invincible Shi Chengtian. Your fist techniques have not disappointed me.”
The rough man who had rescued Qin Fang was his master, Shi Chengtian, one of the two great masters who were up against the barbarian envoys this time!
Shi Chengtian was not young anymore, being already over sixty years old. However, he still looked as vigorous as a middle-aged man.
From there, it was not hard to guess the identity of the thin man dressed in white with a long sword behind his back who had arrived with Shi Chengtian.
He was the sword sovereign, Dugu Xiong!
Shi Chengtian tapped Qin Fang’s acupuncture points, and after temporarily relieving his injuries and pain, he stood up and looked at Bo Ri. His eyes were like an ancient well. With anger, he said coldly, “How dare you wound my disciple to such a stage? Even if you are part of the barbarian delegation, you must give an explanation today!”
“An explanation?” Bo Ri grinned and said naturally, “Your disciple was ignorant and actually prevented me from killing someone I wanted to kill. I already didn’t kill him to save your face. Also, let alone hurt people, even if I killed someone, so what? There were dozens of Grand Xia masters who had died in my hands.”
Shi Chengtian’s eyes dazzled as he said, “Never mind. I originally planned to deal with you in the palace tomorrow. I had wanted to teach you, the barbarians, a lesson tomorrow and show you that you are merely frogs in a well who do not know how high the sky is. But if you are looking for death today, then I will take care of you now!”
“We, the barbarians, do not know how high the sky is. However, we are not frogs in a well.” Bo Ri was not angry. His eyes were instead filled with excitement. He eagerly said, “In any case, I also have this intention. I want to wait until tomorrow, but I can still exchange a few moves with you two today. ”
The moment his voice fell.
Bo Ri let out a scream towards the sky, making a loud but strange shout that was like a lion’s roar. He had also infused his internal energy into the shout, allowing it to be heard even from miles away.
The ordinary people around covered their ears under the scream. Otherwise, it felt like their heads would explode.
A moment later, another barbarian with the same sweater and braid over his head came to the teahouse. This man did not look as strong as Bo Ri and was shorter than him.
However, the faint aura that he exuded was even more terrifying than Bo Ri’s.
“Senior Brother.”
Seeing the man coming, Bo Ri walked over with respect and said, “These are the two great grandmasters of Grand Xia, namely Invincible Iron Fist Shi Chengtian and Sword Sovereign Dugu Xiong.
“I heard that they are representing the Grand Xia’s imperial court this time and are the strongest trump cards the court has prepared in order to deal with us ‘barbarians’.
“Since we happened to run into them today, I was hoping to exchange a few moves with them first. Senior Brother, I hope that you can help to oversee this match at the side.”
It turned out that this person was another grade-9 great grandmaster from the barbarian delegation. He was the Senior Brother of Bo Ri, Moragu!
Moragu did not refuse and nodded. “Well, it just so happens that I also want to see the strength of the Grand Xia’s great grandmasters.”
With the consent of his senior, the smile on Bo Ri’s face had become more “sincere”.
However.
If anyone had seen how he had brutally killed two grade-8 great masters in the arena six years ago, they would not think that he was simple and honest.
This could be seen through the methods he had used to deal with Qin Fang just now.
He was a fierce beast and was definitely not a good person!
Also, this person was very cautious and was not a foolish man.
In the face of Shi Chengtian and the Sword Sovereign, the two grade-9 great grandmasters, although his fighting spirit was raging, he did not act recklessly. He chose to call for reinforcements as soon as possible and had his senior brother, Moragu, come over.
Of course.
The reason Bo Ri called his senior was not that he felt that he was not Shi Chengtian or Dugu Xiong’s opponent.
He was just worried that Shi Chengtian and Dugu Xiong would use numbers against him. When one was not an opponent against him, they might then fight him together!
If it were ordinary grade-9 great grandmasters, it would be fine if he was up against two. Even then, Bo Ri felt that it would not be difficult.
But Shi Chengtian was different. He was also a well-known and powerful existence among the grade-9s, which he acknowledged.
“May I know who is willing to exchange moves with me first?”
Bo Ri glanced back and forth between Shi Chengtian and Dugu Xiong, his eyes were full of excitement. He arched his hands slightly and said, “Please go all out. Otherwise, I might beat you to death!”
Both Shi Chengtian and Dugu Xiong sneered.
Bo Ri was confident of his own strength.
However, the two of them were confident in themselves too.
Shi Chengtian was a well-known powerhouse. He had even once defeated three grade-9s from the Demon Gate. He was even at his peak currently, unlike Yan Bugui. If he couldn’t even deal with a barbarian who had just broken through to become a grade-9 only a few years ago, wouldn’t he be too useless?
Dugu Xiong was also a peerless genius in the sword dao. He also had the inheritance from Sword Sage Ye Qingcheng, how could he be ordinary?
Thus, when Bo Ri had let out a roar previously to call for reinforcements, they did not make any attempt to stop him.
Their purpose in coming to the capital this time was to suppress both grade-9 barbarians.
Now that Bo Ri had called his senior brother over, it was even better for them! They could deal with the two of them at once!
“Who’s up first?”
Bo Ri stared at Shi Chengtian with bright eyes. Among the two, he was more interested in Shi Chengtian and wanted to fight him first.
The punch from Shi Chengtian previously had made him feel pressure and made him even more eager to fight against him.
However, it was a pity that Dugu Xiong stepped forward first and said indifferently, “Let me exchange some moves with you first.”
“Alright then. Although I am not interested in you, I am still interested in the inheritance of the sword sage, Ye Qingcheng.” Bo Ri nodded, his tone sincere but arrogant.
It was as if he did not put Dugu Xiong in his eyes.
The dignified swordmaster, Dugu Xiong, in his opinion, would only be used to practice his sword moves.
“Weng!”
Dugu Xiong didn’t say much nonsense; the long sword in his hand had already made its move.
In the next instant, the entire Xiangmanlou seemed to be filled with a murderous air, as if flowers were withering in the autumn. It was caused by the powerful and sharp sword aura!
The current Xiangmanlou was already empty.
All the guests had perceived the danger in the fight and had left the place as quickly as they could. Even the brave people who wanted to stay and enjoy watching the excitement had been driven away by the Eastern Depot personnel.
It was no joke when two grade-9s fought.
Not to mention ordinary people, as long as one’s cultivation level was less than that of a grade-7, one then didn’t even have the qualifications to watch the battle. Otherwise, one might even be fatally injured just from spectating at the side.
Of course.
Outside of Xiangmanlou, several neighborhoods nearby had been surrounded by crowds after the news spread, waiting for the result of the fight in Xiangmanlou.
Were the two great masters of the Grand Xia Dynasty or the two barbarian brothers stronger?
In addition to ordinary people, many masters from the imperial court and the Jianghu, and even the Emperor in the palace, were watching.
