Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The gusty wind swept across the Lake Surface, sending ripples spreading out in layers.
The weather had been poor these past few days, either shrouded in dark clouds or accompanied by sudden rain and thunder; in short, the sun was a rare sight.
At this moment, on the Pavilion, a young figure sat cross-legged. Not far from him lay a corpse covered by a shroud.
"It should be here soon!"
Ye Tian's previously closed eyes suddenly opened wide, a flash of brilliance shooting forth.
This was already the third day since he had slain Wu Xiaozhuang. According to Ye Tian's calculations, Wu Tianci should be on his way here by now.
Lowering his gaze, Ye Tian looked at his palm. With his fingers spread open, a faint blue light suddenly flickered on it, resembling a flash of lightning as he focused his thoughts.
"Victory or defeat depends on you!"
Ye Tian shifted his gaze away from his hand. A day ago, he had successfully broken through to the late stage of Eighth-Dan Warrior and unexpectedly merged two types of spiritual energy. Although he did not know the exact reason behind it, feeling the power that was several times stronger than before filled Ye Tian with an inexplicable confidence for the impending battle.
In less than three hours, Wu Tianci would arrive!
"Wu Tianci! I will not give you the chance to harm the Cold Family!"
Ye Tian's gaze was resolute, and his determination was firm.
After careful consideration during this time, whether he could kill Wu Tianci was no longer just a matter of simple hatred. If Wu Tianci walked out of here alive, upon returning to Spirit Martial Town, he would undoubtedly do everything possible to launch an attack against the Cold Family. Although with just the strength of the Wu Family he would find it difficult to succeed, Cold Wu was also lurking around, eyeing the Cold Family's lifeline. If given any opportunity, he would likely initiate an internal upheaval without hesitation.
And even if Cold Wu remains inactive in the current situation, there is still a Wang family watching closely. By that time, the Cold Family will also be caught in a major catastrophe.
"Wu Tianci!"
Ye Tian slowly uttered this name, his tone filled with a determination that allowed no room for failure.
However, thinking and acting cannot be confused. Although Wu Tianci is among the weakest of the Martial Masters in Spirit Martial Town, he is still someone who has broken through to Martial Mastery.
And what does Martial Mastery signify?
It means refining Heaven and Earth Origin Power into Martial Origin Power. That kind of power is several times stronger than the pure elemental force controlled by Warrior Definition!
Nevertheless, regarding the upcoming confrontation with Wu Tianci, Ye Tian was not acting impulsively. He had already summarized the strengths and weaknesses between himself and Wu Tianci. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the enemy leads to victory in every battle. Based on this, Ye Tian still had some confidence that he could ultimately defeat him.
His confidence stemmed from the following points:
First: Physical endurance. As a Martial Master, Wu Tianci's physical endurance goes without saying. However, although Ye Tian is only at Warrior Definition, his body endurance, thanks to his Jujutsu training, would definitely not be inferior to that of a First-Stage Martial Artist; in fact, it might even exceed it.
Second: Heaven and Earth Qi Rotation. In this regard, Wu Tianci, possessing Martial Origin Power, clearly holds an advantage. Currently, for Ye Tian to engage him in battle, the combination of spiritual energy and elemental force has become crucial.
Third: Experience. Although Wu Tianci may not have a renowned reputation, he has been practicing martial arts for over thirty years. Regardless of how many battles he has fought or merely observed during these years, his accumulated experience undoubtedly surpasses that of Ye Tian. After all, desperate struggles are not competitions; no matter how strong one is, they can still fall victim to experience.
Fourth: This is the only point where Ye Tian is confident he surpasses Wu Tianci—martial arts mastery. Ye Tian's control over martial arts completely overwhelms Wu Tianci. With techniques like Bagua Thunder Palm, Bagua Seal Palm, Vortex Profound Skill, Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield, Yuqi Tayan Jue, and the newly mastered ultimate move Bagua Thunder Seal, his formidable martial arts repertoire is beyond what someone like Wu Tianci can compare to.
In summary, the outcome of the battle between Ye Tian and Wu Tianci remains uncertain!
"Ha..."
Ye Tian let out a light breath and then withdrew his gaze from the overcast sky, lowering his eyes to look towards the center of the lake.
Although a faint mist shrouded the surface of the lake due to the weather, Ye Tian could still clearly see a small dark shadow that had appeared at the center of the lake at some unknown time.
"Finally arrived!"
His pupils constricted, and Ye Tian's fists instinctively clenched tightly. A great battle was about to begin, and he felt a hint of excitement rising in his heart.
In the distance, the shadow in the lake was rapidly enlarging at an exaggerated speed, as if it would easily cover the several miles of distance in no time.
"Does he possess a levitation technique?"
Ye Tian thought to himself, for among the approaching shadow, he did not see anything resembling a small boat or raft.
Although Ye Tian was not afraid, he couldn't help but feel slightly surprised. If Wu Tianci truly mastered a levitation technique, then the odds of winning this battle would suddenly decrease significantly.
The rarity of levitation techniques in Spirit Martial Town could hardly be overstated; as far as Ye Tian knew, he was the only one known to possess such a technique. If Wu Tianci indeed had a levitation technique, then his hidden strength would be difficult to gauge.
As Ye Tian pondered, the dark shadow broke through the mist, and its face gradually became visible.
It was an ordinary face, sporting a short beard that many found appealing. His clothing and adornments were also quite plain. If this figure were lost in a crowd on the street, it would be hard to imagine he was Wu Tianci, the Guard Captain of the Cold Family and a powerful Martial Mastery expert.
Of course, Ye Tian recognized him; it was indeed Wu Tianci. He had not been mistaken—he had arrived at this hour as expected.
"Ye Tian!"
Although they were not very close, the roar that emanated under the influence of Martial Origin Power sounded like thunder, causing even the ripples on the lake's surface to tremble.
Ye Tian did not respond, calmly watching the figure rushing towards him, still sitting quietly atop the Pavilion.
Moments later, Wu Tianci finally appeared within ten zhang of the Pavilion. At this distance, with his Martial Origin Power, he had already entered the attack range.
Whoosh!
As expected, without a word, Wu Tianci made his move. He forcefully shook the bamboo pole beneath him, which shot out like a meteor towards Ye Tian's throat.
With pupils slightly constricted, Ye Tian suddenly struck out with his palm at the rapidly enlarging object in his sight.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the bamboo pole exploded, and as Ye Tian swung his arm, it split into several "bamboo arrows" that shot back towards Wu Tianci, their momentum seemingly no less than before.
Facing the returning "bamboo arrows," Wu Tianci curled his lips in disdain. Without dodging or avoiding them, he continued to charge towards the Pavilion at full speed. At the same time, he extended his palm, and a fierce wind surged forth. The "bamboo arrows," upon encountering this powerful force, veered off course and shot into the lake.
"Die!"
As he deflected the "bamboo arrows," Wu Tianci's figure, like lightning, charged at Ye Tian. With fingers spread wide and a flash of light in his palm, he gathered his Martial Origin Power and struck towards Ye Tian's face.
Boom!
Ye Tian also sprang up suddenly and met the attack with a heavy palm strike.
With a loud crash, Wu Tianci landed safely while Ye Tian was sent flying back several zhang before gracefully landing.
"You finally came." The first words spoken by Ye Tian after stabilizing himself were these few words.
"En?" A hint of surprise flashed in Wu Tianci's eyes. At this moment, he was not only astonished by Ye Tian's use of the word "finally," but also shocked that Ye Tian had endured a palm strike under the pressure of Martial Origin Power without showing any signs of internal injury.
"As the saying goes, a son must repay his father's debts. So, shouldn't you bear the consequences for the heinous crimes committed by your son?" Ye Tian stared at Wu Tianci fearlessly, his tone cold and deliberate.
"What about Xiao Zhuang?" The moment Wu Xiaozhuang left home, Wu Tianci felt an ominous premonition. Even after four days of absence, although all signs pointed to a disaster, he still asked this question with a glimmer of hope.
"Are you asking me on purpose?" A trace of coldness flickered in Ye Tian's eyes as he replied coldly.
"Do you really think you can kill Xiao Zhuang?" Wu Tianci scoffed disdainfully, still deluding himself into believing that his precious son was safe and sound.
"That's right, I can. And not just him." Ye Tian spoke confidently, his tone carrying an air of superiority.
"And you!" Suddenly, a sharp light burst from Ye Tian's pupils as he raised his hand to point at Wu Tianci and made a gesture across his throat. Proudly, he declared, "You will also die by my hand!"
Faced with Ye Tian's imposing demeanor, Wu Tianci couldn't help but twitch his lips. He truly did not understand why the latter displayed such confidence against a Seven-Section Warrior as an A First-Stage Martial Artist.
"Heh heh, who gave you the courage? Cold Boyuan?" Wu Tianci laughed in anger, looking down on Ye Tian. After a pause, he sternly added, "But he's not here!"
"Heh heh." In response to Wu Tianci's mockery, Ye Tian merely smiled coldly and replied in a contemptuous tone, "It only takes me to kill you."
"You're talking nonsense!" Wu Tianci was furious. In his imagination before arriving, Ye Tian should have been fleeing in panic. Yet now, not only did he openly admit to killing Wu Xiaozhuang in front of him, but he also dared to boast that he could kill him too—this kind of arrogance was simply delusional!
"Hurry up and hand over Xiao Zhuang; otherwise, I will tear you to pieces!" Wu Tianci was clearly starting to lose patience. Until he saw his beloved son’s figure, he did not want to waste too much time talking with Ye Tian. However, if his son was safe and sound, then he would certainly take pleasure in humiliating Ye Tian thoroughly.
