Chapter 36 – Hunt along the street, drag Fatty into the water!
In the blink of an eye!
Instructor Yu's fierce palm strike descended right in front of Gu Han!
Clang!
A metallic ringing echoed!
Gu Han, having been on guard, drew his sword just in time to block in front of him, and Instructor Yu's palm landed squarely on the blade!
However...
Even though the sword was incredibly sturdy and withstood the attack...
The tide-like spiritual power, carrying boundless force, still mostly hit him!
Pfft!
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, countless bones in his body broken, as he was sent flying backward in an instant!
Thud!
Moments later, he hit the ground hard.
"Is he dead?"
"Nonsense, with Instructor Yu's cultivation level, he's definitely dead!"
At this moment...
Many people were drawn by the commotion, and though they were intimidated by Instructor Yu's ferocity and dared not approach, they had no qualms about watching from a distance.
"I think I recognize this guy!"
"Recognize? Who?"
"It's the one who made Young Master Liu lose face!"
"It's him!"
"What's the background of this guy, to be so bold? He offended Young Master Liu and now Instructor Yu?"
"Eh? He's not dead!"
Someone shouted.
All eyes immediately turned to Gu Han.
"Cough, cough..."
Not far away...
Gu Han, using his sword as support, staggered to his feet, his body covered in blood, looking utterly miserable, but his eyes... frighteningly bright!
"Goodness!"
The crowd became unsettled.
"He's really not dead!"
"Instructor Yu is a great master of the Spirit Profound Realm, and his palm didn't kill him? This young man is extraordinary!"
"What a pity."
Some sighed.
"No matter how talented he is, he definitely can't withstand Instructor Yu's second palm!"
"Watch your words! Instructor Yu is still here!"
"..."
Watching the expressionless Instructor Yu, the murmurs quickly quieted down.
"Do you know..."
Instructor Yu, expressionless, slowly approached Gu Han.
"The young man you killed was the only male of the Yu family!"
"Do you know how much effort and blood my brother and I spent to raise him?"
"You killed him, and now you must pay with your life!"
"I don't know!"
Gu Han wiped the blood from his face haphazardly.
"He tried to kill me, so I killed him! Are you stupid, not even understanding such simple logic?"
"Good!"
Instructor Yu nodded.
"Today, you will die here!"
"Die?"
Gu Han took a deep breath and slowly raised his sword.
"Then... let it be a fight to the death today!"
Sigh...
The crowd felt mixed emotions.
Setting everything else aside...
This young man's courage to fight to the death in the face of mortality was something more than 95% of people lacked...
What a pity!
"Then I shall grant your wish!"
Instructor Yu didn't hesitate, his spiritual power surged wildly, forming a faint aura around his body!
"Huh?"
Suddenly...
Gu Han seemed to see something, his expression brightening.
"Murong innkeeper, you've arrived?"
Oh no!
Hearing this name, Instructor Yu's heart skipped a beat, his spiritual power faltered, and he instinctively looked back.
Murong Chuan...
The pressure he exerted was too great!
But...
There was no one behind him, not even a shadow.
When he turned back...
Gu Han had already fled far from the spot, his speed so fast, he hardly seemed like someone gravely injured.
"..."
The crowd exchanged looks, dumbfounded.
He ran?
Wasn't he on the brink of death?
How was he still so lively?
And... what about the promised fight to the death?
This young man...
He let out a scream and was sent flying far away.
It was unclear if it was because he was too fat.
Or because of the golden light.
When he landed...
His body actually bounced a couple of times.
Roll!
Without waiting for Instructor Yu to strike again...
He bounced up and darted away, just like nothing happened, following closely behind Gu Han.
"..."
The crowd was dumbfounded again.
Still not dead?
How was that possible!
The crowd stealthily watched Instructor Yu's reaction.
Could it be...
His Spirit Profound Realm was a sham!
Meanwhile...
Instructor Yu's face grew even uglier.
With his cultivation level, a full-powered strike could turn a cultivator in the Meridian Unblocking Realm into a pile of mush!
But now...
One Gu Han.
One Fatty.
Not only did they not die, but they also ran faster than the other!
Although it was related to his recent injury at the hands of Murong Chuan, he still couldn't accept this outcome!
Losing face.
The vengeance for his nephew's death.
Either reason made the killing intent in his heart surge!
Without hesitation...
His figure flickered repeatedly, disappearing from the crowd's sight, leaving behind a statement filled with killing intent.
"Today, none of you will escape!"
...
At this moment...
Outside the city gate.
"We're back!"
Looking at the familiar city wall in front of him, the Seventh Prince was somewhat excited.
"I, Jiang Feng... am back!"
When he left the city...
He was afflicted with Cold Poison, his days numbered, filled with despair, which was why he left the Capital for Sky Martial City.
When he entered the city...
He had officially embarked on cultivation, making rapid progress, not to mention acquiring a special constitution envied by all, with limitless future prospects!
The stark contrast...
Even with his disposition, he couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed.
"Your Highness."
Beside him...
Manager Li also wore a smile.
Jiang Feng was someone he had watched grow up. For over twenty years, Jiang Feng was never cheerful, rarely smiling, unlike today's high spirits and ease.
"With time, Your Highness will surely become the foremost among the younger generation in our Great Qi!"
"The foremost?"
Jiang Feng chuckled.
"With him around, how could I claim the title of the foremost? Besides, there's also Brother Gu, right?"
Manager Li, for the first time, did not argue.
Gu Han's ability to casually produce a Heaven-level cultivation technique was enough to show the depth of his fortune and blessings, far beyond anyone's imagination.
Moreover, it was precisely because of Gu Han that Jiang Feng could be so spirited today, so Manager Li naturally harbored much less hostility and resentment towards him.
"Speaking of which..."
Jiang Feng was a bit worried.
"Brother Gu left before us, he might have encountered the Demonic Beast turmoil, I wonder if he's alright."
"Your Highness, rest assured."
Manager Li thought for a moment.
"That little... ahem, Mr. Gu is... ahem, resourceful and powerful, he surely won't be in any danger."
In fact...
What he wanted to say was thick-skinned and black-hearted, despicable and cunning.
But he changed his words at the last moment, fearing Jiang Feng would be upset.
"That's true."
Jiang Feng chuckled.
"I'm overthinking it. Brother Gu is prudent in his actions, incomparable to his peers, how could he encounter any danger?"
"Your... Your Highness."
Suddenly...
Manager Li seemed to see something, his expression becoming very animated.
"I... I think I see him!"
His cultivation level was far superior to Jiang Feng's, so he naturally noticed the anomaly in the distance.
"Who?"
Jiang Feng was startled.
"Brother Gu? It can't be that coincidental, can it?"
"It's... him!"
"Hahaha, it's really Brother Gu, strange, what's he doing here, is he planning to leave the city?"
"He..."
Manager Li's mouth twitched.
"He's being chased..."
