“Yu Fei is an absolute idiot bastard! He actually dared to claim that this person doesn’t have any background! He was previously just a Soul Warrior, but was already in possession of powerful soul artifacts and soul techniques, and he also knew the secret method by which fire essence can be used to temper soul artifacts…his status in the Crafting School is definitely not low!” Yan Xi frowned as he pondered frantically. “Although I don’t know why and how he ended up being attacked and pursued by this puny Glacial Sect without anyone from his own school helping him…it’s best not to have any conflicts with him. The intricate plans our school has have no margin for error. I was just sent here to ensure the recruitment of a few small schools; we absolutely cannot offend the Crafting School right now.”
As Yan Xi pondered mentally, yet another change occurred within the ongoing battle.
One wrong move would result in an advantage being lost; an advantage being gained could cause a cascade of successes!
A serious look was on Zhang Zhenshan’s face as he completely focused on defense. Bai Yunfei, on the other hand, was happily fighting to his heart’s content! In the past, when Zhang Zhenshan had been in a weakened condition, the only thing which Bai Yunfei had been able to do was flee. But in this battle, Bai Yunfei actually had seized the upper hand!
After exchanging dozens of blows, Zhang Zhenshan’s left arm and left part of his waist had both been sliced open by the Firetipped Spear, which had left behind two bloody wounds. However, the ‘explosion’ effect hadn’t occurred, but despite that, each time Zhang Zhenshan had been struck by the Firetipped Spear, he could feel the specter of death brushing past him.
He had thought that this would be an easily won battle, but at this point, it was his opponent who was suppressing him. All he could do was defend in a rather haggard fashion. Zhang Zhenshan’s face grew increasingly unsightly, and the hatred and rage in his eyes grew stronger and stronger as well. As he once more dodged, so as to avoid the enemy’s spear from striking his left shoulder, the anger in Zhang Zhenshan’s eyes transformed into utter madness.
He was the exalted leader of the Zhang clan, and an Elder of the Glacial Sect! And yet, today, he was being completely suppressed by a person of the younger generation who just a few days ago he had been chasing after. What’s more, this person was the culprit who had killed his son! No father should be forced to bury his own son!
“Brat, don’t be so smug! I’m going to take your life as compensation for my son’s!” Zhang Zhenshan had a look of madness in his eyes. Faced with another attack from the spear, he actually didn’t dodge; instead, he lifted up his left hand and grabbed the spear! The Icesilk Gloves on his hands were completely unable to withstand the sharpness of the Firetipped Spear, and blood immediately began to flow from his hand. It was as though he had grabbed a blazing iron with his bare hands, and a crackling sound could be heard. However, he completely ignored these things. His hand around the spear’s tip, he pushed it to the side, then slid backwards as he moved straight towards Bai Yunfei. His right palm was glowing with glacial qi, and he struck viciously against Bai Yunfei’s chest!
Zhang Zhenshan’s madness had caught Bai Yunfei completely off-guard. In addition, the secondary effect of the Firetipped Spear did not trigger this time either. That brief moment of stupor caused Bai Yunfei to be hit dead-on by the Glacial Palm, and he was sent flying backwards.
Zhang Zhenshan’s left hand still remained tightly clamped around the Firetipped Spear. Leaping forward, he actually moved at the same speed as Bai Yunfei, delivering yet another palm blow to Bai Yunfei, this one to the abdomen!
The qi and blood within Bai Yunfei’s body were flowing about chaotically. When he saw the enemy palm strike descend, a vicious light flashed through his own eyes. He didn’t defend at all, instead using a leg to kick towards Zhang Zhenshan’s left hand, which remained clamped on the Firetipped Spear.
