Chapter 63: Wasn't he supposed to be a mediocre person who dared not cause trouble? Why is he afraid to go now?
Just then, one of the Titan Apes that had been standing by as a spectator moved.
The moment it started moving, Tang San and the others finally snapped out of their daze after Zhao Wuji was killed by Ye Tianchen.
Before them stood a 100,000-year-old soul beast whose strength was comparable to that of a Title Douluo, while Zhao Wuji, the only one who could barely give them a sense of security, had already turned into dust!
Fortunately, the Titan Ape did not attack them; it simply held the stone pillar in one hand and grabbed Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong in the other.
It's unclear whether the two were terrified, but they didn't make a sound the entire time as they were carried away by the Titan Ape.
Tang San clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
His mind was racing, trying to find a way to save Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, but no matter how hard he tried, the answer was always the same: impossible.
In fact, let alone facing the Titan Ape, he was powerless even to face this young man who killed a Soul Saint with the strength of a Soul Master!
Even the oldest among them, Dai Mubai, couldn't come up with any ideas, and the air fell silent at that moment.
But at that moment, a black figure shot out like an arrow!
The figure was slender and agile, covered in black cat fur, with erect cat ears and a long, thin cat tail trailing behind.
Her speed was astonishing, and the first spirit ring under her feet lit up with a pale yellow light—Netherworld Thrust!
No one expected that the first to break the silence would be Zhu Zhuqing, the only remaining woman in the team.
She didn't rush towards the direction where Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong disappeared, but went straight for Ye Tianchen!
"Zhu Zhuqing! You've gone mad!"
Dai Mubai cried out in disbelief.
But Zhu Zhuqing turned a deaf ear.
Her eyes were only on the boy standing on the shattered earth.
The distance of several dozen meters passed in the blink of an eye. Just as she arrived in front of Ye Tianchen, Zhu Zhuqing's second soul ring lit up.
Netherworld Hundred Claws!
Zhu Zhuqing's figure spun rapidly in the air, and countless claw shadows rained down on Ye Tianchen like a storm! Each claw shadow was sharp enough to tear through steel!
However—
Ye Tianchen made a move.
He simply turned slightly to the side.
Those seemingly impenetrable claw shadows all missed their mark.
Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Thrust doubled her speed, but in Ye Tianchen's eyes, it was still as slow as if she were moving in slow motion.
He strolled leisurely through the shadows of claws, without even his clothes being touched.
"I didn't expect that."
Ye Tianchen spoke calmly, his tone carrying a hint of surprise.
"Your feelings for Zhao Wuji are actually this deep?"
Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth, remained silent, and launched an even more frenzied attack.
But no matter how fast or fierce she was, she could never even touch the hem of Ye Tianchen's clothes.
Suddenly, a hand reached out.
With a casual yet precise gesture, he grasped Zhu Zhuqing's wrist.
Zhu Zhuqing's body stiffened abruptly!
She tried to break free, but the hand was as firm as an iron clamp, and she couldn't move an inch!
"He is my teacher!"
Zhu Zhuqing finally spoke, her voice icy cold, yet trembling uncontrollably.
"You killed my teacher, and I will avenge him!"
With her wrists locked by Ye Tianchen, Zhu Zhuqing used her legs instead.
She suddenly raised her leg, her legs springing up, and kicked towards Ye Tianchen!
However—
She didn't even see how Ye Tianchen moved.
She felt her feet kick into empty air, and she lost her balance.
At the same time, a strange sensation came from above her head.
Her cat ears were gently pinched.
Zhu Zhuqing's body froze instantly.
Her cat ears were her most sensitive area. The moment they were touched, a tingling sensation spread from the top of her head to her whole body, and half of her body went limp.
Her face flushed red instantly, and she bit her lip tightly, but couldn't make a sound.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was focused on the battle, and no one noticed her unusual behavior.
Ye Tianchen released her hand, took a step back, and looked at her with a half-smile.
"That's interesting."
He said.
"In my opinion, you are more like a responsible man than the others."
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned.
Man?
He said he... was like a man?
Why does this sound so awkward?
But Ye Tianchen stopped looking at her and turned to the few boys standing there in the distance.
"Shrek, right?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Didn't you all claim that 'only the timid are those who dare not cause trouble'? How come you've all turned into cowards now?"
His gaze swept over Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar, finally landing on Tang San.
Is it because they lack confidence?
That gaze, that tone, were like the sharpest knife, piercing deep into everyone's self-esteem.
Dai Mubai's body trembled violently.
He recalled his usual arrogance, the word "genius" he always used, and the way he used to mock ordinary soul masters.
But what about now?
He froze on the spot, not even having the courage to make a move.
The man who killed Teacher Zhao stood there, looking at them with that contemptuous gaze.
"Roar—!"
With a roar, Dai Mubai, enraged, suddenly stood up!
The White Tiger Martial Soul possessed him! His body instantly swelled, his hands transformed into tiger claws, and black and white tiger stripes appeared on his body!
The third spirit ring lit up—White Tiger Vajra Transformation!
His strength and defense surged, and he pounced on Ye Tianchen like a raging tiger!
"Boss Dai!"
Ma Hongjun exclaimed in surprise.
But Dai Mubai had already rushed out.
Meanwhile, Oscar also made a move.
His spirit rings lit up one after another, and he began to produce sausages continuously.
Now that Ning Rongrong, the support Soul Master, was not here, he would have to take over the support role.
Tang San did not make a move immediately. He activated his Purple Demon Eye, and a faint purple light covered his eyes. He was waiting, waiting for an opportunity.
"Fatty."
Tang San's voice, enveloped in soul power, reached Ma Hongjun's ears.
"I'll do everything I can to create opportunities for you to attack. As long as you can hit the opponent with Phoenix Fire Line, we have a chance to win!"
Ma Hongjun nodded almost imperceptibly and retreated to the back.
On the battlefield, Dai Mubai had already rushed up to Ye Tianchen!
His tiger claws, brimming with ferocious power, viciously clawed at Ye Tianchen!
Ye Tianchen sidestepped to avoid it.
Dai Mubai turned around and pounced again!
Ye Tianchen took a step back and dodged it.
Dai Mubai's attacks were like a storm, but each time, Ye Tianchen simply moved slightly, causing him to miss his target.
Is that all you've got?
Ye Tianchen spoke calmly.
Dai Mubai roared, and his attack became even more ferocious.
Just then, a ghostly figure joined the battle!
Tang San!
He used the Ghostly Shadow Steps technique to its fullest extent, leaving behind trails of afterimages as his speed was astonishing! In a sense, his speed at this moment even surpassed that of Zhu Zhuqing, a speed-attack type Soul Master!
