by Flying Alone 孤单地飞


  Those around them quickly stepped back, fearing that they would be dragged in.

  That was Zhang Tong; who would dare to bother with other people’s business like this? Furthermore, they were not disciples of the Majestic Heaven Sect, so what basis did they have to interfere in this matter?

  “Humph, what intolerable bullies!” Just at this moment, a woman in green leaped out of the crowd. “You are all merely a bunch of lackeys, and you still dare to be so arrogant!”

  Zhang Tong took one look at her, and couldn’t help but look stunned.

  She was actually an exquisite beauty. Her hair fell like waterfall, and she had a complexion fairer than snow. Her features were incredibly delicate, especially those large eyes. It was as if they could speak, and were filled with the mischief of a young girl.

  His heart throbbed involuntarily, and he asked, “Miss, how may I address you?”

  “What do you care who I am? I cannot bear to see bullies who like to bully others as they like!” the beauty in green declared with her head held high like a proud swan.

  “Junior Sister!” Another man forced his way out. His figure was tall, and he was amazingly sturdy. However, he did not appear overbearing. Instead, he gave off a cowering vibe. On one side, he bowed repeatedly towards Zhang Tong and his four lackeys as he said, “Apologies, apologies. This is my junior sister disciple. She is rash in her speech and actions, so please do not fault her. Please bear with her.”

  As everyone watched this, they all shook their heads secretly.

  The personalities of these two fellow disciples were really two extremes of the spectrum. One disdained evil like it was her personal enemy, while the other was cowardly and timid.

  Yet Zhang Tong smirked coldly. “With just an apology and asking me to bear with her, you think you can stay out of this matter?”

  “That… Young Master Zhang, what do you want to do?” the sturdy man asked.

  “Since you have offended me, you naturally have to make amends and apologize! Why don’t we go have a drink and chat at the Heavenly Distant Restaurant later?” Zhang Tong’s eyes were fixed on the beauty in green, his heart itching.

  The masses naturally understood in a flash. As men, how could they not read between the lines? Zhang Tong wanted to have that woman.

  “This…” The sturdy man was hesitant.

  “Senior Brother, he is only a lackey. Why do we have to be afraid of him?” the beauty in green asked, fuming.

  “Junior Sister, how many times have I told you? Don’t cause trouble, don’t cause trouble! Sigh!” The sturdy man sighed, but just as the masses thought that he was about to compromise, he suddenly boldly went into an attack posture, and declared, “No one can humiliate my Junior Sister!”

  At this instant, he really had an awe-inspiring presence, without the slightest bit of cowardice from before.

  Zhang Tong couldn’t help but laugh loudly, and said, “So it turns out you’re an idiot! Apprehend him!” He stretched out a finger to point at the large man. He was sure that as long as this person was apprehended, this beauty in green would definitely be his to order around as he desired.

  Now that the four lackeys had received their command, they would naturally not have the time to deal with Ling Han. Instead, they pounced at the sturdy man like wolves.

  Previously, the tall man had looked like he was afraid of trouble, but when it really came to a point when there was no retreat, he revealed his fierce side. With a shake of his fists, he slammed them together. Suddenly, a terrifying wave of power was created.

  His fists swelled. Previously, they had only been the size of clay basins. Though they were still big, it was still within normal range, but now, they were at least three times bigger than the head. They had also turned an ash color, flickering with a metallic light.

  Weng , his arms also waved, like they were waves of water. The ripples continued from the wrist to his shoulder, and after every ripple, there would be another divine pattern added to his fists, and they became even stronger than before.

  Yi , what kind of martial arts technique was this? It was quite interesting.

  Ling Han watched from the sidelines. He was in no rush to interfere.

  Xiu , the four lackeys had already pounced over, and they each made their move.

  Peng, peng, peng, peng . The sturdy man delivered a punch at an incredibly fast pace. He actually managed to unleash four punches in a single instant, and exchanged a blow with each of the four lackeys. He seemed to have become a spring, and was filled with elasticity. Thus, after he had shot out a punch, he made use of the rebound to quickly deliver the second punch.

  Ling Han watched closely. With every punch, one of the divine patterns on the tall man’s fists would disappear, and his battle prowess would decline slightly.

  Interesting, the power of his punches would be weakened with the increasing number of times he delivered punches. However, he only had to pause for a while, and the power of his punches would again become stronger. His battle prowess fluctuated indefinitely.

  The sturdy man’s cultivation level was in the late stage of the low extreme of Mountain River Tier. Out of those four lackeys, three were on the same level as he, and the last was even stronger as he had reached the peak stage of the low extreme. Hence, the first punch from the large man was finally aimed at that person in the peak of the low extreme; this was his strongest blow.

  After a while, not only those watching from the sidelines could see everything clearly, but realization also dawned on even those four henchmen.

  “Speed up the attack, don’t allow him to have a chance to recover the power in his punch!”

  The attacks of the four came faster and faster, causing the sturdy man to deliver punches as much as they could. In this manner, even if the divine patterns on his fists would recover automatically, the rate of recovery would be far from catching up to the rate in which they were expended, so his attack power would naturally decline.

  “I will not allow you to bully my senior brother!” The beauty in green drew her sword, anger filling her expression.

  “Miss, everyone’s only sparring. There’s no need to make such a fuss,” Zhang Tong said with a smile. He pressed his hand outward, and the beauty in green trembled uncontrollably as if she had been struck by a heavy pressure. She was barely able to maintain her balance.

  Zhang Tong was at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier, while the beauty in green was only at the early stage of the low extreme. The difference in their cultivation level was like an insurmountable gulf.

  “Junior Sister!” the sturdy man cried in alarm. However, the four lackeys had already found a way to counter his battle technique and thus suppress him. That being the case, how could he help the beauty in green?

  “Is this really the Majestic Heaven Sect?” someone murmured softly. “How can their disciples be so arrogant?”

  “There’s nothing we can do about this. Whose fault is it that we’re not disciples of the Majestic Heaven Sect? Even if the Majestic Heaven Sect wants to manage things, they’ll only manage affairs internal to the sect.”

  “Sigh, I can’t bear to watch on!”

  “Say, the most detestable person is actually that brat. It was clearly him who caused this matter, yet he’s standing there and watching on as if this has nothing to do with him.”

  “That’s right, that brat is abominable!”

  Many people directed their anger at Ling Han; they felt that he was an ungrateful wretch. Those two had clearly stepped out to help him, yet how did he react? He casually walked aside and acted as if the fight had nothing to do with him.

  Ling Han naturally heard their comments. However, he simply ignored them and acted as if he hadn’t heard anything.

  He wanted to gauge the potential of the sturdy man. He wanted to see whether he could find an opportunity to turn th
e tables on the lackeys. If he couldn’t, he would be nothing more than just a reckless brute.

  “Junior Sister!” The sturdy man continued to shout. His concern for her couldn’t be more obvious.

  “Senior Brother, don’t mind me!” the beauty in green said with much difficulty. She was under immense pressure, and just saying this sentence caused her breathing to become labored.

  The sturdy man was enraged, and his black hair instantly stood on ends. A golden halo rose from beneath his feet before surging above his head and vanishing into the air. However, an additional 10 divine patterns materialized on his fists.

  His power climbed to an incredible level.

  Peng, peng, peng, peng!

  The four lackeys wailed in agony as they were instantly sent flying.

  Ling Han couldn’t help but smile. He was rendered a bit speechless by the sturdy man’s actions.

  He had wanted to see how the sturdy man would deal with the desperate situation. In Ling Han’s opinion, battles couldn’t be won purely through “brute strength”. However, the sturdy man had proven otherwise in this case, unleashing his brute strength to the extreme. If increasing his divine patterns by one at a time wasn’t enough, he would increase them by 10 at a time!

  Doing this would definitely place a huge burden on the sturdy man. However, he appeared especially mighty at this moment, and there was almost an aura of invincibility about him.

  “Release my junior sister!” the sturdy man roared. He charged toward Zhang Tong.

  “Humph, what a fool!” Zhang Tong raised his arm and made a pressing action toward the sturdy man.

  Weng!

  His Origin Power formed into countless lengths of chains that intertwined into a net and enveloped the sturdy man.

  The difference in their cultivation level was far too large. In fact, even Ling Han would be no match for a consummate level cultivator if he were suppressed back to the low extreme. Only 10-star geniuses would be able to achieve such a feat. They were freaks, and their battle prowess would be on par with the late stage of the consummate level once they advanced to the low extreme.

  “Senior Brother! Senior Brother!” the beauty in green cried in alarm.

  “Don’t worry, I won’t hurt him too much.” Zhang Tong chuckled, and said, “Miss, can you tell me your name now?”

  The beauty in green glowered at Zhang Tong, an unyielding look on her face.

  Zhang Tong wasn’t angered by her answer, or rather the lack thereof. He turned to the four lackeys who had just crawled up, and said, “Beat that person however he just beat you four.”

  A sinister smile appeared on their faces, and they answered, “Understood, Young Master Tong!”

  “Don’t!” The beauty in green’s expression changed drastically.

  ‘How can this person be so despicable?’

  Zhang Tong laughed loudly, and said, “Miss, your name!”

  This beauty in green was clearly a young lady who had barely any life experience. Thus, he naturally had a stranglehold on her.

  “I-I’m called…” The beauty in green kept her eyes wide open in an attempt to stop her tears from falling. She felt extremely vexed and angry.

  “Heh!” Ling Han finally stepped forward, and said, “How can this lady’s name be revealed to such a low-life? Won’t that be an insult to this lady’s name?” He stopped the beauty in green from speaking.

  Zhang Tong’s expression darkened. He had already gained full control of the situation, yet his rhythm was actually ruined by this brat. He humphed coldly, and said, “What are you four waiting for? Hurry up and kill him!”

  He squinted his eyes as a malicious killing intent rose from his body.

  Did they really think that he didn’t dare to kill them?

  How naive! The Majestic Heaven Sect wasn’t a charity, and these people were more so not disciples of the sect. As such, their deaths would be completely meaningless!

  The four lackeys had just suffered a beating at the hands of the sturdy man, and this had left them feeling ashamed and humiliated. However, the appearance of Ling Han gave them a chance to win their face back. They didn’t think that Ling Han was strong, and the four of them slowly encircled him.

  “This brat is finally showing some backbone.”

  “It’s useless, though. So what if he can defeat those four people? Zhang Tong’s already at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier. How many people in the younger generation can defeat him?”

  “Indeed. The genuine prodigies have already been accepted into the Majestic Heaven Sect. Moreover, Zhang Tong had been a key disciple back in the day, and he was also a prodigy among prodigies. When battling against those at the same cultivation level, only the seeds were able to defeat him.”

  Everyone shook their heads in disappointment. The result of this battle was already decided. However, who told this brat to be so blind that he challenged Zhang Tong?

  Everything would’ve been fine if he had just moved aside for Zhang Tong. It wasn’t as if he would lose a chunk of his flesh or anything.

  The four lackeys each lunged over from a different direction. Their expressions were sinister, and it was clear that they all had a large amount of blood on their hands.

  Ling Han shook his head. He then raised a hand and snapped his fingers.

  Xiu, xiu, xiu, xiu!

  Four bursts of Sword Qi surged outward. Although he had simply formed these using his fingers, these four bursts of Sword Qi possessed a supreme might that made it feel as if heaven and earth were collapsing.

  Ling Han had used the power of Regulations!

  While he had been in the large tomb, he had received inspiration from the sword strike that he had needed to decipher. He had pondered over it under the Reincarnation Tree, and now that so much time had passed, he had naturally developed a deeper understanding of it gradually. Now, he only needed to snap his fingers, and his attacks would be filled with overwhelming sword intent. Not only that, but it would also contain the power of Regulations.

  Pa, pa, pa, pa!

  There were four crisp cracks, and the heads of the four lackeys exploded at almost exactly the same moment. Their divine sense was instantly ripped to shreds.

  A deathly silence fell over the surroundings.

  This youth looked to be fairly gentle and easy-going, yet his attack had been incredibly resolute and deadly. In fact, he hadn’t even given the lackeys a chance to beg for their lives.

  Perhaps these four lackeys were completely insignificant. However, who was Zhang Tong?

  He was Yang Hao’s follower and someone who had once been a key disciple!

  He could stay by Yang Hao’s side, and as a result, he could occasionally listen to lectures on the great dao given by elites. Could his battle prowess not be terrifying? Although he hadn’t reached the Sun Moon Tier yet, he was definitely one of the strongest cultivators in the Mountain River Tier.

  Sigh!

  Everyone shook their heads in pity. This youth was far too rash, and he had clearly not considered the consequences. Initially, he had every opportunity to protect himself. If he hadn’t gone too far, Zhang Tong wouldn’t necessarily go after him himself.

  But now?

  If Zhang Tong didn’t kill Ling Han, what face would he have?

  “Humph! I underestimated you!” Zhang Tong said coldly. There was a piercing look in his eyes.

  He had sensed Ling Han’s powerful strength the moment that he attacked. He definitely wasn’t as ordinary as he looked. However, Zhang Tong was unafraid.

  He had been accepted as a key disciple before, and he had possessed a power of five—almost six—stars then. He was more so a follower of Yang Hao now, and he was thus able to listen to the explanations of dao provided by great elites. As such, his battle prowess had naturally grown even stronger.

  He now possessed a battle prowess of seven stars! Who could challenge him?

  “You’re quite courageous, huh? You even dare to kill someone from the Majestic Heaven Sect!” Zhang Tong said in a baleful voice.

  Ling Han shook his head while laughing loudly, and said, “Wrong! You’re merely a lackey, and the people I killed were lapdogs of a lackey! So, what does this have to do with the Majestic Heaven Sect?”

  Zhang Tong faltered for a moment. Just then, it was his lackey who had said that the five of them weren’t from the Majestic Heaven Sect. That being the case, the rules of the Majestic Heaven Sect naturally didn’t apply to them. As such, what did it matter if they killed others?

  Now, however, Ling Han was using the words of his own lackey against him. It was just that Ling Han was far too unvirtuous. Every sentence he spoke was filled with the words “lackey” and “lapdog”.

  He stared at Ling Han, and said, “You’re correct. If one is powerful enough, they can naturally do as they wish. However, if I decide to act, how many strikes of mine do you think you can block?”

  “Oh? Are you very powerful?” Ling Han picked his ears. He appeared as relaxed as he could be.

  Zhang Tong humphed, and said, “I’m at the peak stage of the Mountain River Tier, and my power can surpass five stars. My battle prowess… can surpass seven stars!”

  “What?!”

  The surrounding onlookers clasped their heads in shock.

  Was this even possible?

  Even five-star geniuses only existed in the legends. Yet, Zhang Tong claimed that just his power alone could already surpass five stars. His battle prowess was even more insane, and was able to surpass a whopping seven stars! If this were true, why was he still a follower? He was definitely talented enough to become a seed!

  However, Ling Han knew that cultivation was like rowing a boat upstream—it would float backward if it didn’t advance. Perhaps Zhang Tong possessed a power of five stars at the moment. However, there was no guarantee that he would be able to maintain this power of five stars after advancing to the Sun Moon Tier. Perhaps his power would fall to four stars, or maybe even three stars.
