The noisy discussions suddenly ceased at that moment. As they watched Fang Chen turn away from Li Tian's inquiry, the expressions on everyone's faces changed repeatedly. Soon, a hint of a smirk appeared in the gazes directed at Li Tian and his five companions.
The deep blue hue in Li Tian's pupils abruptly transformed into an icy blue. He remained still, but the cold aura emanating from him intensified. His gaze fell upon Fang Chen's slowly retreating figure, and a chilling smile crept onto his lips.
"Interesting, this is the second person who dares to ignore me," he murmured, the chill in his smile growing stronger.
As the most talented individual of the younger generation in the Snowmang Kingdom, his status was comparable to that of Song Donglai in the Great Zhao Kingdom. However, since entering the Purple Sun Mountain Range, he had encountered several individuals who showed indifference or even ignored him.
This is truly annoying...
Li Tian did not move, but someone beside him did.
"Arrogant!" A youth clad in a fiery red robe, with strands of hair tinged with a hint of red, suddenly shouted angrily. He resembled a burning flame.
As soon as he spoke, this Flame Youth flickered and vanished from sight, only to reappear beside Fang Chen in an instant.
"Wait a moment," the youth said as he reached out to pat Fang Chen on the shoulder. His fair hand glowed with a red light, as if enveloped in magma, releasing an intense heat that could melt gold and iron.
"Crimson Flame Hand!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.
This was an extremely powerful combat technique, representing the signature move of the red-clad youth named Zhou Yan. Recently, many warriors had perished in Purple Sun Valley due to this very technique.
Thus, when Zhou Yan unleashed it, many immediately recognized it.
"This person is quite arrogant; I just wonder if he has the capital to be so," said a burly young man beside Li Tian, his muscles resembling piled rocks.
“Zhou Yan’s Crimson Flame Hand is powerful, but it shouldn't be enough to stop this guy. I should have let Zhongpeng take action earlier,” said Qin Feng, who bore a long sword and had a severe gaze. The Zhongpeng he mentioned was none other than the previously loud-mouthed Hulking Youth—Shizhongpeng!
As someone who specialized in physical training, Shizhongpeng possessed an extraordinary amount of strength. He appeared to be just a slightly more robust figure, but Qin Feng and the others knew very well that apart from Li Tian, he was the strongest among them, and his tough skin and thick flesh provided a level of defense far superior to the others.
“Daring to go alone and engage in battle with Song Donglai, he must have some skills. But this person…” Li Tian looked at Fang Chen’s back, his icy blue pupils showing no sign of diminishing: “I really don’t like him.”
While Li Tian and the others were discussing, a sudden Mutation occurred between Fang Chen and Zhou Yan.
“This guy is truly outrageous!” Zhou Yan sneered inwardly.
The Crimson Flame Hand, which had already defeated many so-called geniuses of the same realm, was now only inches away from Fang Chen, ready to strike. However, at this moment, Fang Chen showed no signs of movement, not even turning his body, seemingly prepared to endure the blow.
Three inches, two inches, one inch… The Crimson Flame Hand drew closer to Fang Chen’s shoulder amidst Zhou Yan’s somewhat ferocious expression. The intense heat seemed to burn away the air itself, yet there was no sound of a violent explosion.
Just then, an extremely abrupt aura of death suddenly enveloped Zhou Yan. In this dense atmosphere of death, Zhou Yan shuddered as he sensed an extremely dangerous presence!
Looking at the fist-sized black and white lotus that had appeared in front of his chest without him noticing, Zhou Yan couldn’t help but swallow hard. The sense of danger deep within him expanded to its peak at that moment, causing the descending Crimson Flame Hand aimed at Fang Chen to freeze in mid-air.
“Are you still going to make a move?” A calm voice carried a chilling indifference. At that moment, Fang Chen, who had been facing away from Zhou Yan, suddenly turned around, his pitch-black eyes shimmering with a faint cold light.
The ferocity on his face had completely stiffened, while the hand glowing with intense red light remained poised to strike at Fang Chen’s shoulder.
To strike or not to strike?
For a moment, Zhou Yan felt extremely conflicted.
If he strikes... Zhou Yan glanced at the half-black, half-white lotus flower that had mysteriously floated in front of his chest. He knew that once he made a move, this strange lotus, which brought him an overwhelming sense of danger, would undoubtedly explode at the same time!
Could he withstand it?
Zhou Yan had no confidence at all.
But if he chose not to strike and simply retreated, there was no doubt that he would be utterly humiliated. He, Zhou Yan, was a formidable figure among the younger generation in the Snowmang Kingdom, and to be scared off by someone else would be a disgrace. If this news spread, how could he show his face in the future?
Suddenly, Zhou Yan moved. A fierce expression flashed across his face as his hand, which had been hovering about an inch from Fang Chen's shoulder, slammed down.
"I don't believe you really dare to kill me!" Zhou Yan's low, sinister laughter echoed in Fang Chen's ear.
He was not alone; behind him were Li Tian and three others. He didn't believe that Fang Chen, who was about to engage in a fierce battle with Song Donglai, would dare to detonate that strange lotus at such a critical moment and completely offend him and his group.
He was counting on the fact that Fang Chen wouldn't truly dare to strike hard! This was the confidence that allowed Zhou Yan to act.
"Is that so?" However, the only response Zhou Yan received were two cold words.
"Be careful!" At the moment Zhou Yan made his move, Li Tian and the others behind him suddenly narrowed their pupils and lunged toward Zhou Yan.
It was Zhou Yan who struck first, yet it was also Zhou Yan who needed to be cautious...
Just as Li Tian and the others began to move, the half-black, half-white lotus floating in front of Zhou Yan trembled violently before—boom!
A thunderous roar reverberated throughout the area. At the same time, a lotus identical to the previous one but magnified hundreds of times suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes, devouring both Fang Chen and Zhou Yan within it.
A piercing scream echoed from the Illusory Lotus, only to suddenly vanish as if someone had grasped its throat. Black and white became the only colors in everyone's sight at that moment.
"Damn it!" The bizarre ice-blue light in Li Tian's pupils surged, and his handsome face finally revealed the cold killing intent he had been concealing. He fixed his gaze on the Illusory Lotus before him, where no figures were visible, only the chaotic intertwining of black and white energy, which grew even colder.
He knew very well that the earlier scream belonged to Zhou Yan!
"How dare this guy!..." Qin Feng, bearing a long sword, was filled with disbelief as he looked at the scene. In his eyes, not only Zhou Yan but also Fang Chen should not have acted this way. He simply could not comprehend how Fang Chen dared to strike so ruthlessly!
"If anything happens to Zhou Yan, I will tear this guy apart!" Shizhongpeng's face was filled with rage.
If it weren't for the Illusory Lotus completely blocking their line of sight, preventing them from knowing what was happening inside and making them hesitant to act recklessly, the furious four would have already rushed in.
"This guy..." Lian Yiyue watched the massive black-and-white lotus and the murderous expression on Li Tian's face, her shock gradually turning into concern.
In fact, the moment Zhou Yan attacked Fang Chen, Lian Yiyue sensed that something was wrong. Although they had only spent a few days together, she understood that beneath Fang Chen's seemingly calm exterior lay a deep-seated killing intent. Once he made a move, it would be ruthless and merciless; however, under these circumstances...
"Really makes one uneasy." Lian Yiyue shook her head. Yet as she spoke to herself, her worried expression slowly faded. Although Fang Chen's actions were fierce and decisive, they were by no means reckless. She believed that since Fang Chen had acted, he must have confidence in handling whatever came next.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the enormous Illusory Lotus began to slowly dissipate. The swirling black-and-white energy around it also started to fade away. Two extremely vague figures emerged from within, still too indistinct to see their faces clearly.
Wait, they were close together?
Although their appearances were still unclear, it was undoubtedly Fang Chen and Zhou Yan stepping out from the black-and-white energy. Hadn't these two just been at odds with each other? When had their relationship become so good that they would emerge side by side?
Strange, quite strange!
Thoughts surged in everyone's minds, filled with various speculations. Even the four members of Li Tian, who exuded an aura of killing intent, showed signs of confusion on their faces, their gazes flickering slightly.
However, in the next moment, as the sound of footsteps grew louder, the two figures that had previously been indistinct finally came into view. The astonishment on everyone's faces suddenly transformed into a deep shock.
Fang Chen and Zhou Yan indeed walked out side by side. However, this proximity was merely because Fang Chen had a firm grip on Zhou Yan's neck, dragging him out like a lifeless duck! Moreover, compared to Zhou Yan's weakened state, surrounded by a palpable aura of death and clearly gravely injured, Fang Chen showed no signs of diminished strength; not even a single thread of his robe bore any marks of damage.
This... the disparity is too great.
The shock in everyone's eyes intensified. Zhou Yan's strength was undoubtedly at the Heavenly Genius level; he was not some random nobody. Given that Fang Chen had refrained from making a move for so long, it was clear that Zhou Yan had initially held the advantage. But now...
Everyone's perception of Fang Chen's strength was redefined once again.
At that moment, with one hand gripping Zhou Yan's neck, holding his life and death in his grasp, Fang Chen scanned the four members of Li Tian surrounding him and suddenly spoke calmly, "Do you all wish to make a move against me as well?"
