Chapter 217: Chapter 216: "The Return of the ’Handsome Punch[PS: An earthquake struck Ya’an in Sichuan, the tremors were strongly felt in Chengdu where Xiao Gou lives, yet he’s still alive. God bless Sichuan, God bless Ya’an. I hope there are few casualties and that the people of Ya’an can live happily and in good health!!!] Zhang Yide lost. The hunched figure in black that appeared behind him was exceedingly powerful, his techniques for killing enemies were not only exceedingly strange, but his strength was also above that of the burly man in black. One thing he said was right, Zhang Yide had become old. At nearly a hundred years old, to have such combat strength was enough to command respect from anyone. Originally, Zhang Yide was a superpower user of the healing type, and those who knew about superpower users were aware that those of the healing type were considered supportive superpower users. Their combat strength was not the strongest to begin with, but they had certain innate advantages when it came to helping other superpower users and patients. Just like Zhang Yide at this moment, despite having his entire left shoulder pierced by the Skull Blade of the hunched figure in black, the wound completely stopped bleeding and healed on its own in less than two minutes, leaving the hunched figure in black staring in astonishment. "Not only are you skilled, but you also possess such an ability, you must die!" the hunched figure in black said, his gaze toward Zhang Yide becoming even more murderous. Facing such an expert like Zhang Yide with unbelievable recovery abilities, the hunched figure in black was truly scared. He hadn’t expected China to have such capable individuals. If his disciples from the North Star Sword Style were to come over and clash with the Ancient Martial Sects of China again, with someone like Zhang Yide around, wouldn’t his North Star Sword Style disciples be walking to their deaths? Swish! Swish, swish... Seven sharp knives embossed with skull heads, following the swing of the right hand of the hunched figure in black, all aimed at Zhang Yide, while the hunched figure in black also rushed toward Zhang Yide along with the sharp knives, determined to put Zhang Yide to death. At this moment, Zhang Yide’s combat strength had declined due to the accumulation of years; despite possessing the strength for a fight, endurance was no longer his ally. He used his superior healing superpower to heal his wounds instantly, but that depleted a great amount of his superpower and it wasn’t as though the wounds were now a non-issue. "Elder Zhang, be careful...!" Hei Mian, seeing this, was extremely anxious. He knew the hunched figure in black was very strong, and even by giving it his all, he wouldn’t last long against him. Right now, Hei Mian was tightly surrounded by the remaining two assassins in black. The move he made just now had used up a tremendous amount of Inner Strength. Facing three first-rate assassins was tough for him too, so even if Hei Mian wanted to fight with all his might to assist Zhang Yide, he was unable. Thud! Thud! Thud! Three Skull Blades respectively pierced through Zhang Yide’s left and right chest as well as shooting straight through his right arm, while the remaining four Skull Blades, which Zhang Yide managed to dodge, still bore such impact that they sent him staggering backwards, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Bang! With a loud boom, Zhang Yide, pierced by three Skull Blades, was nailed to the wall behind him. The entire brick wall showed massive cracks as it seemed on the verge of collapse, and Zhang Yide had no time to pull free from the three Skull Blades because the hunched figure in black, like a Roc Spread Wings, was already reaching for Zhang Yide’s throat. Whoosh! In a critical moment, Zhang Yide unleashed all the superpower energy he had left, conjuring up a Steel Armor Spear right in front of him to strike at the hunched figure in black leaping mid-air, but it only slightly hindered the fatal attack. Taking advantage of that brief moment, Zhang Yide shifted his position ever so slightly. The hunched figure in black missed with the grab of his right hand, but his left hand struck Zhang Yide’s chest. The entire brick wall came crashing down with a thunderous noise, shattering to pieces while Zhang Yide was sent flying over ten meters away, blood continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth, instantly soaking through his white beard. "Grandpa, Grandpa..." Zhang Ruotong, upon seeing this scene, ran over regardless of everything else, tears streaming down. "Ruotong, stay back!" Zhang Yide yelled loudly, struggling to keep himself up. "Go to hell..." the hunched figure in black said with a cold laugh, step by step walking towards Zhang Yide, determined to completely finish off this Chinese Divine Doctor Ghost Hand. "Ahh!" "Boom!" Just as the hunched figure in black was about to finish off Zhang Yide and then kill everyone in the Zhang family compound, a scream like the slaughtering of pigs erupted, followed by a loud noise as the roof of the Zhang family pharmacy was blasted open. The burly man in black who had charged inside was sent flying backward by a punch, soaring over ten meters high, smashing through the roof of the pharmacy. Everyone stopped in their tracks, gaping at this scene, especially the assassins on the side of the burly man in black who could hardly believe their eyes. It should be noted that the burly man in black was among the top young experts of the Beichen Sword Sect, and even if he wasn’t ranked first, he could at least make it into the top three. Even a hidden master like Zhang Yide couldn’t defeat the burly man in black, which proves just how strong this guy really was. Now, the man in black had been punched into the sky and even let out a squeal like a pig being slaughtered, which seemed like a tall tale, beyond belief. Whoosh! A figure then dashed out from the shattered rooftop, his fists continuously striking, each punch landing on the burly man in black’s body. The sound of fists squashing flesh and breaking bones was chilling to the listeners. "Handsome Punch!" Ye Tianchen howled as a faint glow flickered over his right hand, and he punched the abdominal area of the burly man in black, ending this exaggerated scene. The burly man in black rolled down from the rooftop. When the hunched figure in black and the remaining two first-class assassins looked over, they were all dumbfounded. The burly man in black had been beaten to death by Ye Tianchen with just a few punches, his body mangled beyond recognition. Nobody would have expected the burly man in black, a young expert of the Beichen Sword Sect, would be killed by Ye Tianchen with just a few punches. If this news spread, it would certainly shock both Japan and the Ancient Martial World of China. "I didn’t expect another one courting death!" Sёarᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The hunched figure in black cast a cold glance at Ye Tianchen, who was standing on the rooftop, then abandoned the idea of killing Zhang Yide first. As a master of his level, he could tell at a glance that this young man from China who had burst out of the pharmacy was the most formidable in martial arts. Just the fact that he had killed the burly man in black with a few punches was enough to show the severity of the issue; he must be eliminated first. "I’m not courting death; that melon was asking for a beating. I was taking a bath inside when he barged in through the roof, violating my privacy and pushing me beyond endurance!" Ye Tianchen said with a slight smile. Seeing Ye Tianchen unharmed, Hei Mian, Zhang Yide, and Murong Yudou all breathed a sigh of relief, while Murong Xin and Zhang Ruotong couldn’t help but clench their small hands tightly. From the beginning until now, they had been worrying for Ye Tianchen, and this was involuntary. "You’d better tell me your name, because you’re about to die at this moment!" said the hunched figure in black, who had already walked under Ye Tianchen, and looked at him coldly. "Didn’t I already tell you? You’re such a senile old man, coming out to mix with a bad ear, are you confused?" Ye Tianchen replied contemptuously. Hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, the hunched figure in black emitted a murderous aura all over, his gaze becoming deadly. Zhang Yide and Hei Mian, among others, were all speechless at Ye Tianchen’s antics. Wondering when he would ever be reliable, they observed the dire situation as the enemy was all top masters and the circumstances were extremely dangerous, yet this kid still had the mood to joke around. They couldn’t help but admire his composure. Swoosh! The hunched figure in black vanished into thin air, moving at an extreme speed in the night that in a blink of an eye, it was hard to tell where he had gone. However, it was clear that since Ye Tianchen dared to call such a master an "old man, senile," he would definitely be targeted for a killing strike. "Be careful, he’s very strong!" Zhang Yide warned Ye Tianchen. "Don’t worry, no matter how strong he is, Bright Moon shines over the river..." Ye Tianchen was nonchalant as he spoke and even started reciting a poem. Just as he finished one line, he felt a gust of wind behind his head and instantly threw a punch back. Bang! A muffled sound, and there stood the hunched figure in black in front of Ye Tianchen, the two locking eyes, fist against fist, neither moving an inch. Everyone was astonished, surprised not only at the speed of the hunched figure in black but even more amazed at Ye Tianchen’s response speed. In the darkness of the night, he was able to quickly discern the position of the hunched figure in black and counterattack. His strength was unfathomably deep. Indeed, Ye Tianchen was also startled by the fist exchange. This hunched figure in black was truly strong. He was well aware that he was in the peak state of King-level Superpower Realm, and knew just how powerful his punch was, strong enough to explode a mountain peak. Yet this old man in front of him hadn’t budged, just as Zhang Yide had said, very strong! The reason Ye Tianchen had been able to kill the burly man in black with a few punches was partly due to his rapid increase in strength and partly because the burly man in black had been affected by the Detoxification Herb. At that time, Ye Tianchen, sitting in the big wooden tub within the pharmacy, had been stimulating the King-level Superpower Realm energy throughout his body to suppress the Detoxification Herb, slowly forcing it out of his mouth. Unexpectedly, the burly man in black broke through the rooftop and charged down, aiming a sword strike right at Ye Tianchen’s head. Just as the Detoxification Herb reached his mouth, and he opened it, Ye Tianchen propelled several punches through the air at the burly man in black. Poor guy had no idea that Ye Tianchen, squatting in the tub, was the real expert. Struck by a punch, the Detoxification Herb entered the man’s mouth. Then, Ye Tianchen’s punches sent him flying, buying himself time to put on underwear and rush out, exclaiming "Handsome Punch!"... (To be continued.
