Chapter 1619: Chapter 1621: I Am Very Fair
Who were the people that came?
You might have guessed it, they were Liu Funing and Qi Jiatong, who received the message.
The reason the Elegant-Haired Duke was so surprised was because he was prepared and intercepted them on their path.
But now, it seemed that the interception had failed?!
This... How is this possible?!
Liu Funing immediately understood what the Elegant-Haired Duke was thinking.
He couldn’t help but let a slight curve form on the corner of his mouth.
This guy across probably sent someone to intercept them, but they never expected that the two of them came from underground.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but admire Lu Xiaobu’s foresight and preventive measures!
Beside him, Qi Jiatong also secretly gave a thumbs up.
Before, they thought it was a little over-cautious, but now the reality told them how crucial it was to have such a secret and unseen shortcut.
"Do you really think the five of you can stop me?"
The Elegant-Haired Duke brushed aside his doubts and looked at them with a sinister gleam in his eyes.
Golden Core Stage, after all, is vastly different from Nascent Soul Stage. Although taking on five is a bit too much, he could certainly snatch that Golden Core Early Stage guy under their protection!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Elegant-Haired Duke’s body suddenly vanished in mid-air.
The greatest ability of Nascent Soul Stage, Instant Teleportation!
Seeing him disappear, Hu Nanshan and the old principal were a bit anxious!
However, Liu Funing and Qi Jiatong didn’t panic at all.
Without Divine Skills, or lacking such abilities, one would never appreciate the might of Divine Skills.
The two of them pointed a finger, and two water curtains appeared around Lu Xiaobu’s body.
One was yellow, and the other was black.
As the water curtains formed, the Elegant-Haired Duke reappeared, snickering at the black water curtain in front of him. Was this thing supposed to stop him? freewebnovёl.ƈom
He reached out, intending to go through the water curtain to Lu Xiaobu’s throat.
However.
The moment he touched the black water curtain, his arm suddenly sank heavily!
"Heavy Water?!"
The Elegant-Haired Duke’s pupils dilated.
He never anticipated that Liu Funing had such a trick up his sleeve!
Heavy Water!
Even he wouldn’t dare to tackle it head-on!
Especially upon seeing how the water curtain seemed ready to enclose him.
Once truly enveloped, his body might become sluggish for a short time, which could be fatal!
Instantly!
Instant Teleportation activated again, and he appeared in front of another water curtain.
He thought, not both could use Heavy Water, right?
Yet, when he reached out again.
"Sizzle!"
A wisp of smoke rose from his clothes.
It was corroded!
"Nameless River?!"
The Elegant-Haired Duke was shocked again!
This ability was even more terrifying than Heavy Water on some levels!
Heavy Water might only restrict him, but Nameless River could directly corrode him!
What on earth was happening?!
Why did both of them awaken Divine Skills, and top-tier ones at that?!
Then he noticed that Lu Xiaobu, who was previously protected by the water curtain, had suddenly disappeared!
He was stunned for a moment! Where had that guy gone, not staying put?!
Just then, he heard three screams from the direction of his Flying Boat!
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
He quickly focused his gaze.
Only to see three corpses falling from the Flying Boat!
And the one who took action was none other than Lu Xiaobu who had been sitting here before!
In an instant, he was furious!
The ones he brought along, he didn’t care much about their life or death! However, the target he wanted to capture not only escaped his grasp but also killed his men. This was unacceptable!
Unbelievable!
This was a direct slap to his face!
"You treacherous cur!"
With a roar, the Elegant-Haired Duke charged at Lu Xiaobu.
But in the next moment, Lu Xiaobu sat back on his throne and casually lit a cigarette.
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
The Elegant-Haired Duke glared at Lu Xiaobu from outside the water curtain, his eyes filled with rage and killing intent.
No one had ever dared to toy with him like this, especially not by killing his people right in front of him!
"You kill three of my men, I kill three of yours. I’m just that fair," Lu Xiaobu said indifferently.
By now, the Elegant-Haired Duke was too enraged to speak.
Meanwhile, Liu Funing and the others were silently cheering!
They’d thought they were being bold enough by confronting a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator!
If not for acquiring Divine Bodies, they would’ve never dared to do such a thing!
But compared to their Young Master, there was a stark contrast!
Look at him, not only confronting but also killing his men right under his nose!
Emotions surged in their hearts indescribably!
However, watching this scene from the ruins of Nanshan City Lord Mansion, Wan Jian’s eyes were filled with fervent excitement! freёweɓnovel.com
This was an emotion he had never experienced at Hengqin Academy!
Too good! So satisfying!
So what if it was Nascent Soul Stage?!
If I say kill, then it’s kill!
This was exactly what he wanted!
He wished he could rush in with a sword right now!
The space seemed frozen at the moment, with both sides remaining silent!
After a long time!
The Elegant-Haired Duke suddenly spoke again: "Indeed, the overlord of four cities, impressive strategies, and strength!"
After some time in silence, he realized!
This Lu Xiaobu was formidable, and those two who awakened Divine Skills were formidable too!
Although he was confident they couldn’t kill him, he wasn’t confident he could break through their defense!
Rather than a standoff, it was better to find a way out proactively!
After all, he was there to accomplish a task!
The task was his top priority!
"Not too bad," Lu Xiaobu cracked his neck, speaking nonchalantly.
"Let me introduce myself, I am the Deputy City Lord of Hengqin City – Xiao Long!"
As Xiao Long introduced himself, a commanding aura rose from him.
It wasn’t arrogance, but the confidence ingrained in a powerful being!
When this name was heard, Lu Xiaobu had no reaction, but the others’ faces changed.
They had heard of Xiao Long, the definite second-in-command of Hengqin City.
Aside from Hengqin City’s City Lord, he could command anyone in Hengqin City.
With formidable strength, he’d once single-handedly taken on an entire sect and withdrew intact.
It was due to that very battle that Hengqin City rose to its current status!
Yet, at the same time, excitement welled up within them!
Did they just block Xiao Long’s assault?!
Even though it was unfair numbers, a blockade was still a blockade!
At this moment, Liu Funing and Qi Jiatong genuinely felt the vast difference between Divine Bodies and ordinary cultivators!
Of course, with this came their gratitude to Lu Xiaobu!
Divine Bodies, these were granted by their Young Master!
