Bronze Leg!
Chen Yu, who was in mid-air, struck the Third Fiend’s head with his leg that was as powerful as bronze.
The outcome was clear for all to see.
The Third Fiend’s head wasn’t as hard as the Metal Brown Bear’s.
Chen Yu’s kick was similar to how Le Feng kicked the Metal Brown Bear in the air that day, but Chen Yu’s kick was mightier and more powerful.
This kind of tactic of kicking high up in the air came from the [Towering Cloud Steps].
Otherwise, it was difficult for the average person to find the strength and unleash it in mid-air, and with such fierce precision on top of that.
The Second Fiend’s eyes were wide as he stared at the Third Fiend’s head being kicked away, as well as exploding in mid-air.
This was the first time Chen Yu killed someone.
Even though he had killed many Metal Brown Bears in the past, they were a different species after all.
At this moment, Chen Yu felt a little panicked in his heart, but a surge of outrageous fiendish qi flooded him soon after that. This was the breath of the [Fiendish Cloud Fist] ever since he began cultivating it.
After killing the Third Fiend, Chen Yu felt that the might of his boxing technique had faintly stepped into a new level.
“You actually killed Third Younger Sister! I want you to die—”
The Second Fiend’s eyes turned blood red. Surprisingly, he actually seemed to have lost control of himself.
Chen Yu didn’t know that Honghu’s Three Fiends had fought alongside one another through life and death all the way while they ran amuck. As such, their relationship didn’t lose to that of biological siblings.
There was even a tinge of affection between a man and a woman that the Second and Third Fiend didn’t disclose to one another.
“I want you to die—”
The Second Fiend didn’t bother with Chen Ying’er at all. He was like a mad wolf that went out of control as he charged toward Chen Yu.
Be careful, Elder Brother Yu!
Chen Ying’er let out a low shout. The speed and strength that erupted from the Second Fiend under his out-of-control state had activated the hidden potential of the human body.
In addition to that, the Second Fiend was much stronger than the Third Fiend in direct combat.
“Heavenly Wolf Claw!”
The Second Fiend had a malevolent expression. He reached out and madly grabbed at Chen Yu’s head.
Fiendish Cloud Fist!
Chen Yu was calm and unafraid. After he killed the Third Fiend just now, fiendish qi rose dramatically through his whole body. The might of his Inner Breath and martial arts style faintly forged ahead in a vigorous manner.
Bang, bang, pow!
The two of them crossed blows a few times in a flash on the spot.
Chen Yu felt a wave of berserk and vicious Inner Breath surging toward him time and time again. In a short period of time, he was incapable of totally suppressing the other party.
“This boy doesn’t resemble a human at all…”
The Second Fiend was more frightened in his heart when compared to Chen Yu. He felt that the other party possessed extraordinary strength and that his palm resembled steel and bronze.
His palm was almost numb after colliding a few times in a row.
“Evil villain, accept your death!”
Chen Ying’er floated over from behind and formed a pincer attack formation with Chen Yu.
The Second Fiend’s heart sank into an abyss.
He understood that his death was inevitable in the face of the duo’s pincer attack.
“Third Younger Sister! I’m going to see you at once. But…before that—”
The Second Fiend took a deep breath and suddenly leaped up. He displayed astonishing speed as he pounced toward Chen Yu.
On the basis of martial arts form, the Second Fiend was half a chip superior compared to Chen Yu and Le Feng.
Hmm?
Chen Yu saw the Second Fiend’s expression that implied he was not afraid of dying. The other party actually didn’t care about his attack as he attacked his head directly.
“He’s going to take me down with him?”
A smear of pity pursed up at the corner of Chen Yu’s lips as he saw through the Second Fiend’s intentions.
Chen Yu actually didn’t dodge when faced with the Second Fiend’s suicidal counterattack. He jumped high up in the air and welcomed it directly.
“Bronze Skin Physique!”
Chen Yu circulated the [Bronze Statue Technique] and his body swelled by a loop. A layer of deep bronze metal appeared on the surface of his body as though he was a bronze person.
Whoosh!
Chen Yu circulated the Fiendish Cloud Boxing Technique to its peak and pounded the Second Fiend right in the face.
But at the same time, the Second Fiend struck Chen Yu’s chest with his claw.
The Second Fiend revealed a look that said he had prevailed on his malevolent expression, but his body froze in mid-air in the next instant.
Clank, bang!
It was as if his claw struck a bronze wall, making it burn in pain. He simply didn’t rip the other party’s skin open at all.
Under normal circumstances, this claw of his was enough to cleave the chest of someone at the Connective Meridian stage.
Bang, crack!
Chen Yu’s punch had scathing fiendish qi with it as he bombarded it right in front of the Second Fiend’s face. Surprisingly, one could faintly hear the roar of a vicious beast and the explosion of clouds.
“Fiendish Cloud, Initial Form!”
In the instant the punch hit its target, Chen Yu’s heart trembled immensely.
His Fiendish Cloud Boxing Technique had finally broken through to the initial form.
This was a profound martial arts skill that was close to its apex rank. It was difficult if one normally wanted to train this technique to its initial form.
The Second Fiend was sent flying in mid-air as his blood-curdling screech came to a spontaneous end in a flash.
Bathump!
The Second Fiend fell to the ground and died.
He exchanged injury for injury and life for life. It was only unfortunate that he had… hit the wrong target.
Whoosh!
After Chen Yu fell to the ground, a drizzle of bloody red fluid appeared on his face. He took a deep breath and calmed his vibrating qi and blood.
He found it difficult to forcibly block the Second Fiend’s fatal claw to the point where he had even sustained a bit of minor injuries.
He could see a green-red claw print on his chest when he lowered his head and looked down at it.
Even if Chen Yu had a physique that was as powerful as a vicious beast, in addition to the powerful defensive abilities of the [Bronze Statue Technique], he couldn’t defend against the other party’s attack entirely.
That was natural.
After all, Chen Yu’s [Bronze Skin Technique] was only at the Bronze Skin level. Provided that he could reach the Bronze Muscle level, he could truly neglect the Second Fiend’s attack just then.
Thump, thump! Thump, thump!
Chen Yu realized that his heart was throbbing powerfully and urgently as well.
That large green-red claw mark was actually vanishing and fading away little by little.
He could basically feel the self-recovery and restoration of that kind of injury. He could even use his naked eye to see minute indications of it happening.
“The self-recovery and restoration abilities of my body really is brilliant.”
Chen Yu was ecstatic in his heart.
In a single move, that savage attack just now enabled his Fiendish Cloud Boxing Technique to make a breakthrough to its initial form. He even managed to go a step further to inspect and verify this body’s powerful self-recovery abilities.
“Young one! You actually killed Second Younger Brother and Third Younger Sister—”
An ice-cold voice that entered one’s bones came from another battlefield.
The Great Fiend’s eyes were as dark as ice as it shone with suicidal cruelty and murderous intent.
At this moment, this battle of his sank into a deadlock.
Were it not for the fact that he was worried that the old man would launch a counterattack at death’s door, the Great Fiend would have gotten close to him and fought him at close quarters a long time ago and would have continued fighting at a distance.
Right now though, he finally couldn’t stand it anymore after seeing the Second and Third Fiends’ dead bodies.
But it was only a span of a few breaths between when the Second Fiend met a violent death to the time the Third Fiend was battling between life and death, so he practically didn’t have enough time to save time at all.
“I’m sorry. I killed the second and third idiot you’re talking about. I want to decapitate you, the great idiot later on as well.”
Chen Yu wiped the bloodstains on his hand.
“Little bastard! I want to dismember your corpse into ten thousand pieces—”
The Great Fiend’s grieved voice was full of rage and murderous intent.
He slightly lost control of his emotion in that instant, making his calmness crack slightly as he wildly pounced in Chen Yu’s direction.
“Where are you going? Stay here.”
He heard an old voice from beside his ear, which was accompanied by Inner Breath that resembled raging waves.
A final instance of red light shone on the face of the old man with the white hair. His figure pressed on until he was before the Great Fiend’s eyes as he powerfully hacked over with his palm.
He had already waited for this opportunity for far too long.
He was soon unable to hold on any longer looking at the state of his injury. At this crucial moment, the words spoken provoked the Great Fiend after Chen Yu had killed the Second and Third Fiend in a row.
“Die, ignorant old man!”
It was difficult for the Great Fiend to dodge, so he simply circulated one hundred percent of his Inner Breath to violently shake this attack.
Heart Pressing Palm!
A strange circular-shaped Inner Breath sprung up from that palm, attacking the heart of the old man with the white hair in a flash.
Crack!
The heart of the old man had already shattered and split open in a flash. Blood spurted out of his seven apertures before he fell to the ground and died.
Bang!
The old man sent the Great Fiend flying with a fatal punch before he died, causing the latter to spit out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.
“How can this be?! You used the ‘Violent Blood Pill’ and are seriously injured, yet the side effects are so small?” Castellan Chu Fengyun was in utter disbelief.
The side effects of the Violent Blood Pill would be greater the longer the individual persisted in such a state.
That was especially the case when he sustained severe injuries, that ruthlessness would increase violently since the individual might even explode immediately, thus resulting in death.
“Humph! Who said I ingested the ‘Violent Blood Pill’? I ingested an even more precious pill! The ‘Blood Constituent Pill’ from a sect in the Qi state!” the Great Fiend laughed nastily as he replied.
“This pill can increase my combating strength substantially at the last moment, but I’m allowed to unleash power that bypasses ranks several times, so the side effects are much smaller. In that battle just now, I really did unleash strength at the Visceral Tempering stage less than three times…”
Blood Constituent Pill!
Castellan Chu Fengyun’s face was as gray as death.
He finally understood why the Great Fiend didn’t fight head-on as much as possible in the battle just now.
Why was the Great Fiend fighting at a distance as much as he could in the battle just now?
First, he was worried that the old man would launch a suicidal counterattack.
Secondly, that was the limitations of ingesting the “Blood Constituent Pill”, which didn’t permit the Great Fiend to be free and easy as he pleased.
After all, there were still a few experts he had to deal with, as well as him having to respond to various sudden outbursts.
“Father!”
The woman in front of the tree stump cried out in fear.
At this moment, Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er seized the opportunity to save the Castellan’s daughter.
The Castellan’s daughter was about twenty-eight years old and had a seductive figure. Her tattered skirt revealed her slim thighs, which made one lose themselves to their wild and fanciful thoughts under the hazy night sky.
However, after Chen Yu clearly saw her face, he immediately didn’t have any thoughts whatsoever.
This Castellan’s daughter wasn’t considered to be ugly, but rather, she was “too ordinary”. She had a wide and rather dark face with somewhat sunken eyes, as well as a downturned nose.
“Young hero, you saved me. Yun’er will definitely repay you!”
The Castellan’s daughter had a look of adoration and expectation as she looked tenderly at Chen Yu.
When Chen Yu saw her gaze, a wave of loathsomeness and coldness washed over him.
“Ying’er, quickly bring her to the back,” Chen Yu quickly said. Regardless of whether this Castellan’s daughter was beautiful or ugly, she wasn’t someone the enemy could use.
At this moment, abrupt changes were occurring in the battle on the other side.
Thump!
Castellan Chu Fengyun suddenly turned around and ran.
Although he was fair-skinned and fat, his martial arts form was incomparably quick when he really started running.
Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er were stupefied by such a scene.
“Hmm?”
Even the Great Fiend was startled.
Didn’t Chu Fengyun step forward bravely to save his daughter?
But now, he actually abandoned his daughter and ran for his life.
“Hahaha… Chu Fengyun! And here I thought you were a person who viewed familial relationships as of importance. I never thought you were no good in this area either.” The Great Fiend looked up at the sky and let out a long whistle.
A hint of malice and ferociousness flashed across his face as he watched the Castellan escape.
The Great Fiend didn’t chase after Chu Fengyun.
Thump!
He jumped high up into the air and closed in on Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er right away with astonishing Inner Breath that whistled violently.
“Chu Fengyun! As a father, you don’t even care whether your daughter lives or dies, so don’t count on us two outsiders,” Chen Yu said in a slightly irritated manner.
But at this moment, the Great Fiend’s tyrannical attack was paired with his life energy from a distance as he pounced over with the intent to kill.
With the lack of a better option, Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er could only circulate all of the Inner Breath in their body and jointly face this attack ranked at the Visceral Tempering stage.
Bang, bang!
The power of his palm, that was as tyrannical as a tsunami, sent Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er flying a few meters away.
“Haha!”
The Great Fiend took this opportunity to dodge and carried the Castellan’s daughter in his hand in one move.
“Father, save me—”
The eyes of the Castellan’s daughter were gleaming with tears as she shrieked in despair.
However, Chu Fengyun simply didn’t have any intention of turning around to save his daughter.
“Young heroes, kill the Great Fiend with all your strength and you can get the bounty. As for whether that girl dies, you don’t need to take that into consideration at all,” said Chu Fengyun.
What?!
Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er exchanged a glance. They looked stupefied as they were in intense disbelief.
“You really don’t care if your daughter dies? Do you believe I’ll toy with her and kill her sadistically until she dies in front of you, her father?”
A grim glint shone in the Great Fiend’s eyes.
However, Chu Fengyun, who was on that side, remained unmoved.
This scene frightened Chen Yu and Chen Ying’er. That Castellan actually didn’t care whether his daughter lived or died at all?
Kerchack!
The Great Fiend had a cruel appearance as he broke the arm of the Castellan’s daughter in one move. The latter immediately lost consciousness as a result of that.
That wasn’t the worst bit. He even tore the skirt the Castellan’s daughter was wearing to shreds.
When faced with this scene, that Castellan didn’t get angry, but rather, he laughed.
“Hahaha…”
The Castellan looked up at the sky with a look of ridicule strewn across his face.
“What are you laughing about?”
“Chu Lifeng, didn’t you realize that this girl resembles you a little?”
The Castellan laughed heartily as much as he liked.
“W-what?!”
The Great Fiend trembled as he couldn’t help but gaze at the Castellan’s daughter’s face.
When he took a closer look.
The Castellan’s daughter had a darker complexion, which was entirely different from how white and plump the Castellan was.
The outline and details of her face, as well as her skin color, were actually very similar to the Great Fiend, the dark-faced middle-aged man…
