Yu Daochen turned his head to look. He saw more than twenty identical willow branches being thrown down from the stands.
Yu Daochen was stunned when he saw the willow branches scattered at his feet.
He looked up again at Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was grinning foolishly at him from the stands: "Master Yu, we have plenty of these. Feel free to use them without reservation."
Yu Daochen showed a wry smile and cursed under his breath, "What the hell do you mean 'without reservation'? I've never seen a brother like you."
After speaking, Yu Daochen picked up the willow branches from the ground and used his Huo Li Zhan to cleave through the two talismans shot by Fen Yue. He then began to advance towards Fen Yue.
Fen Yue might still have many life-bound talismans on him. If he engaged in a war of attrition, he would surely be worn down. He had to strike first.
Seeing Yu Daochen charging at him, Fen Yue continuously pulled out black talismans and shot them out, but Yu Daochen dodged almost all of them perfectly.
Yu Daochen arrived in front of Fen Yue, his fingers quickly tracing the willow branch in his hand. He recited a spell and swung the blazing willow branch at Fen Yue, chuckling inwardly.
At such close range, Fen Yue had no way to evade. This strike would either kill him or leave him severely injured.
Just as the willow branch drew closer and closer to Fen Yue, Fen Yue smiled instead of fearing.
Yu Daochen's expression changed as he realized something was wrong.
As expected, just as the blazing willow branch was about to strike Fen Yue, he suddenly pulled out a black talisman and held it in his hand.
A pale green barrier suddenly appeared in front of Fen Yue, blocking Yu Daochen's swung willow branch.
Fen Yue's lips curled upwards. He then pulled out a black talisman and shot it towards Yu Daochen, secretly delighted.
This was exactly what he had been waiting for. In the past, at such close range, he would never have used a powerful offensive life-bound talisman.
But now, he had his master's defensive life-bound talisman.
Fen Yue's master's life-bound talisman was extremely special. It could conjure a barrier out of thin air, and its defensive power was outrageously high.
Seeing the black talisman approaching at such close range, Yu Daochen's expression changed drastically.
He had thought that at such close quarters, Fen Yue wouldn't dare to use a life-bound talisman. But he hadn't expected him to have this trick up his sleeve. He had been tricked by this kid.
It seemed he was going to capsize in the gutter.
Seeing the talisman nearing Yu Daochen, Fen Yue was ecstatic.
Yu Daochen had no way to dodge this attack. If he took this life-bound talisman head-on, even a top thirty expert on the Heaven Ranking would surely lose.
Bang!
With a loud explosion, dust was kicked up from the ground.
On the stands, Zhang Xiaoqiang and Su Lai's hearts clenched.
Yu Ye couldn't dodge that attack just now. He was probably already...
After withstanding the terrifying blow of the life-bound talisman, the barrier in front of Fen Yue slowly dissipated.
Fen Yue looked at the crouching figure in the dust and burst into laughter: "Hahaha, the position of peerless prodigy should change hands from now on."
"Close call, close call." Before Fen Yue could revel in his victory for long, he heard a voice from the dust.
Fen Yue froze and looked at the figure in the dust.
As the dust slowly dispersed, Yu Daochen was seen kneeling on one knee, his palm supporting the ground. The pale blue energy shield around him shattered like glass.
Yu Daochen let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had been quick-witted and used the Shui Kan Jing just as the black talisman was about to hit him.
Otherwise, if he had taken that hit, he would have been skinned alive even if he hadn't died.
Seeing that Yu Daochen had actually managed to defend himself, Fen Yue, just as he was about to pull out another black talisman to attack, was met with Yu Daochen swinging the willow branch towards his face.
Slap!
With a crisp sound, a visible mark suddenly appeared on Fen Yue's left cheek.
Fen Yue looked on in disbelief. Just as he was about to retaliate.
Slap!
Another crisp sound, and a clear mark appeared on Fen Yue's right cheek.
Perhaps stunned by Yu Daochen's two blows, Fen Yue momentarily forgot to draw the dagger at his waist to counterattack.
By the time Fen Yue reacted and prepared to draw his dagger to retaliate, Yu Daochen's knee strike had already landed squarely on Fen Yue's abdomen.
Fen Yue felt an unbearable sharp pain in his lower abdomen. He immediately knelt on the ground, clutching his stomach with both hands, and cursed, "I'm not done with you."
Seeing that Fen Yue was still defiant even in this state, Yu Daochen raised his leg and kicked towards Fen Yue's chest.
"Young Master Yu, please show mercy."
Suddenly, a voice came from somewhere. Yu Daochen paused. He saw a figure leap down from the stands.
Before Yu Daochen could even see who it was, the figure had already arrived in front of Fen Yue and grabbed Yu Daochen's leg as he kicked towards Fen Yue.
Everything happened too fast. Yu Daochen hadn't even registered what was happening.
"So fast!!"
Yu Daochen couldn't help but swallow. A cold sweat broke out on his back.
With such speed, even a Black Ranking expert wouldn't be this fast. Who was this person?
Yu Daochen looked at the newcomer and saw an old man, over fifty years old, looking at him kindly.
The old man released his grip on Yu Daochen's leg, and Yu Daochen retracted his kicked leg.
The old man, with a benevolent smile, introduced himself: "This old man is Kang Chengman, the previous sect leader of the Fu Sect."
Upon hearing the name Kang Chengman, Yu Daochen was slightly surprised.
Kang Chengman was a powerhouse from two generations ago, a super expert who was once ranked third on the Heaven Ranking.
