Invincible Martial Artist from Foreseeing Opportunities

Seeing Xu Guang, Nie Yu hastily shouted, ”Come help, quickly!”

Guo Chong was incredibly strong. Furthermore, Nie Yu was constantly suppressed by his Bloodline Power, causing her vitality and blood circulation to stagnate. From time to time, the long blade in Guo Chong’s hand would leave a gash on her body.

Xu Guang unslung the Big Spear from his back and charged forward. His gaze shifted as he pondered, ”How much of my strength should I use?”

The Big Spear trembled, transforming into a sky full of silver spear shadows beneath the night.

Seeing this, Guo Chong was terrified and hastily shouted, ”Take this!”

Xu Guang shook his head. His Physique was far too strong; this level of infrasonic wave had little effect on him. However, feeling the circulation speed of the power within his body and the stiffness radiating from some of his muscles, Xu Guang developed a deep interest in Guo Chong’s Bloodline Power.

Wielding his spear, he unleashed seventy percent of his strength, fighting Guo Chong to a standstill.

With Xu Guang’s help, Nie Yu finally had the chance to fight back. Her face was flushed red, as if roasted by fire. Plumes of white steam rose from her burly frame, making her look like a blazing furnace.

While Guo Chong was entangled with Xu Guang, she delivered a vicious slash to his back. As Guo Chong turned to dodge, Xu Guang thrust his trembling Big Spear forward, piercing him straight through the heart.

Nie Yu offered no opinion on Guo Chong’s death. Instead, still bearing a look of resentment, she sat on the ground and pulled out bandages from her clothes to wrap her wounds.

”This dog’s Bloodline Power counters me and disrupts the circulation of my Cultivation Technique!”

She herself possessed Elite Level Combat Power, but the Cultivation Technique she practiced was the Blood Coagulation Skill imparted by the Feiyun Guard. This was a high-burst technique that required the rapid circulation of vitality and blood. Guo Chong’s sonic noise had disrupted her circulation and suppressed her strength, which was why she had performed so miserably against him.

Xu Guang did not mock her. He was busy with Blood Refining. Guo Chong’s Bloodline Power was incredibly potent, proving to be a dominant force against high-burst Refining Viscera martial artists like Nie Yu.

Just as Nie Yu finished bandaging her wounds and blew a pre-arranged whistle to summon the Feiyun Guard to capture the Han family stragglers, bizarre footsteps echoed out.

Xu Guang suddenly looked up. Beneath the arched gateway in the garden stood a figure in white. Its body was contorted in a twisted posture, and dark green hair completely obscured its face. All that could be seen was a pair of eyes radiating an eerie, crimson glow!

He thought, ”What the hell is this thing?!”

The moment Xu Guang laid eyes on it, his hair stood on end. A profound terror welled up from the bottom of his heart—an instinctual dread, much like a mouse encountering a cat.

”This is... a ghost!”

As a gust of cold wind swept past, the white figure vanished in a flash.

”What’s wrong with you?” Nie Yu asked in a low voice. She noticed that Xu Guang’s expression had contorted as if he had seen something horrifying, and the surge of blood aura erupting from his body made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

”You... didn’t see it?”

”See what?”

Xu Guang remained silent and walked outward with his spear in hand. Suddenly, he realized that there was something wrong with their surroundings.

”Was that Silver Moon Flower over there just now?”

Nie Yu looked in the direction Xu Guang was pointing. Her expression froze slightly, and she scratched her head in confusion. ”It should... be there, right?”

Xu Guang continued forward. Suddenly, a sound resembling weeping echoed out. It sounded like a woman’s cries, yet also like the howl of some unseen beast.

He abruptly stopped. The Big Spear on his back violently shook as he wielded it like a saber, spinning around to instantly cleave downward!

BOOM!

The ground exploded, yet there was absolutely nothing behind him.

However, Xu Guang noticed an anomaly. His expression turned solemn, a deep wariness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Nie Yu finally noticed something was wrong as well. Her entire body flushed red, radiating a blazing heat like a furnace.

”Stop right there! Who are you?!” Nie Yu decisively roared as a bizarre silhouette silently approached through the darkness of the night.

Immediately after, she sprinted forward, turning into a blur, and slashed down without a moment’s hesitation.

The figure instantly split into two, but then... like water, the halves slowly slid apart and merged with the shadows at their feet.

They became two people!

Nie Yu was shocked by the scene before her, terror filling her eyes.

Xu Guang said nothing, his figure retreating into the darkness. In a place where no one could see, a red line suddenly manifested on his forehead.

This time, he saw it clearly.

The Big Spear transformed into a silver dragon, emitting a buzzing hum in the dark night. At the same time, Ghost Hair shot out from the top of his head, pinning down a Black Shadow!

SQUELCH.

A very bizarre piercing sensation traveled up the shaft.

Following that was a familiar sensation, as if he were... Blood Refining. However, what transmitted over was not the usual scorching heat of Blood Refining, but an extremely freezing, decaying sensation.

An eerie shriek echoed out. The other Black Shadow, as if chased by something terrifying, vanished out of thin air right in front of them!

Just like that, it was gone!

The two stood rooted in place, silent for a long time. It wasn’t until a long howl echoed out and Li Zongkang arrived with his men that they slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Zongkang merely glanced at Guo Chong’s corpse before immediately giving chase in a certain direction. As if he knew exactly where the Black Shadow was hiding, he opened his mouth and spat out a mist of blood, much to Xu Guang’s surprise.

The Black Shadow’s figure slowly materialized, letting out a soundless, agonizing scream. Like a wild beast about to be caged, it struggled desperately.

But the mist of blood spat by Li Zongkang seemed to contain certain properties that Xu Guang couldn’t comprehend. The Black Shadow’s figure grew increasingly faint, eventually disappearing completely!

Having finished this, Li Zongkang looked at Xu Guang. A fleeting flash of surprise appeared on his face, which Xu Guang managed to catch.

He stepped forward, about to ask a question.

”Go ask the City Guardian,” was Li Zongkang’s reply.

Xu Guang stood in place, silent for a long while.

Unexpectedly, every last member of the Han family was dead.
