Chapter 2081 - 1583: Your Xuanmu Order Is Fake!

Second update, please subscribe, monthly tickets~~~~...

The occurrence was so sudden that even Yang Rui, a Grandmaster Mid-Stage expert, barely had time to react...

The Xuanmu Order was snatched away just like that, leaving Yang Rui dumbfounded... He still moved his palm, seemingly unwilling to believe that he had lost the Xuanmu Order.

However, he quickly snapped out of it, the shock on his face not yet faded, but now glaring angrily at Qin Fang.

For no other reason than Qin Fang was holding the Xuanmu Order, scrutinizing and studying it, as if verifying its authenticity!

"You... courting death!"

Undoubtedly, Qin Fang's blatant snatching thoroughly enraged Yang Rui, who now erupted in a furious roar.

"Kill him! Kill him for me..."

Having lost his reason, Yang Rui's composure was gone, and he now bellowed furiously, commanding his subordinates to make a deadly move against Qin Fang.

"Kill~~~"

Upon hearing Yang Rui's order, his nine subordinates dared not delay for a moment, immediately roaring and forming a more formidable attack formation, charging towards Qin Fang.

Nine Grandmaster-level experts cooperating were already terrifying; even in one-on-one scenarios, they weren't much inferior to Qin Fang. Now, with their combined force, the threat was even more immense.

Combined with the main role of the formation, even a casual strike was not weaker than those of Great Grandmaster-level experts...

Upon striking, it felt as if the whole atmosphere changed dramatically, the pressure becoming stifling and overwhelming.

"Again?"

The intense onslaught was something Qin Fang couldn't ignore. Holding the Xuanmu Order, he smiled faintly and remarked.

"Truly don't learn from past mistakes..."

Qin Fang's temper wasn't particularly pleasant towards those who didn't mind their lives, and he too was subtly angered.

It seemed Yang Rui overlooked a fact; Qin Fang had previously effortlessly shattered the attack formation of six, and though their numbers had now increased and power enhanced, it might still be futile.

Boom~~

The nine experts' combined strike was terrifying indeed, their casual blow resembling an exploding bomb, creating a crater on the ground.

Yet by then, Qin Fang had already vanished from that spot, appearing safely five meters away...

Even in such a strike, let alone touching Qin Fang, not even a pebble splattered to touch a corner of his clothing.

"Kill~~"

Fortunately, these nine experts didn't expect to kill Qin Fang with just the first strike; if they had, they might have been somewhat incredulous.

Missing the first strike, the nine experts immediately reorganized their formation, charging at Qin Fang once again, spreading out to form a Nine Palaces encircling position, intending to trap Qin Fang and capture him like a turtle in a jar.

"Nice idea, too bad... unachievable!"

Qin Fang chuckled coldly, not caring a bit as he murmured, while his figure flickered constantly within the cave.

One moment here, one moment there, almost never lingering in any spot, rapidly shifting away.

Using the Traceless Snow Stepping Technique, although the cave wasn't particularly large, it was spacious enough, allowing his movements to be less restricted.

Especially with the surrounding stone walls not particularly smooth, allowing easy horizontal movement, offering Qin Fang ample space for maneuvering.

The result was that Qin Fang remained leisurely, not hit by these nine experts... whereas the nine seemed somewhat exhausted.

Unlike Qin Fang's agility, they had to strive to maintain concerted actions, for a slight reduction in number dramatically decreased their attack power, facing possible counterattacks from Qin Fang; they weren't fools, knowing well how to choose...

Watching this scene, Yang Rui was almost ready to cough up blood, their side having an absolute advantage in numbers and strength.

Yet unexpectedly, despite such numbers and advantage, they were run around in circles by Qin Fang alone, nearly dragging the nine experts to their demise.

"A bunch of idiots... can't catch him, switch targets! Bring Lin Qian back to me..."

Seeing no solution with Qin Fang, Yang Rui, being quite shameless, immediately altered his orders to his nine subordinates, shifting their target to the uninvolved Lin Qian and Everard.

"Yes!!"

Upon hearing Yang Rui's new command, the nine experts' eyes brightened and they breathed a slight sigh of relief, for dealing with Lin Qian and Everard seemed much easier than facing the slippery Qin Fang... even if the opponents were tough nuts.

"Wait a moment..."

Just as the nine experts were preparing to surround Lin Qian and Everard, Qin Fang's voice lazily drifted over from the side.

"This is a duel between men, no need to involve an innocent woman..."

Admittedly, Yang Rui was indeed despicable, scheming one after another, even at such a moment, he had no intention of giving up.

Even Qin Fang found it intolerable, his tone becoming colder.

"Humph..."

However, Yang Rui clearly had no sense of guilt, he was someone who resorted to any means to achieve his ends, so how could he show remorse?

"Fine, you win. I'll return this to you, alright?"

Perhaps having seen enough of Yang Rui's shamelessness, Qin Fang felt a bit powerless, speaking as though intending to compromise, and with a light flick of his wrist, a dark shadow flew straight toward Yang Rui.

"Smart move..."

Yang Rui naturally knew what Qin Fang was referring to, extending his hand to catch the shadow.

Being a Grandmaster Mid-Stage Expert, he had the capability, and Qin Fang's speed wasn't particularly mysterious, with a reach, Yang Rui caught that shadow.

"Ouch~~"

Nevertheless, as soon as he touched it, it felt as if he had been electrocuted, causing him to scream miserably, and his body stumbled, nearly falling over.

Fortunately, he managed to stabilize himself in time, avoiding a greater loss of face... Yet, such a mishap evidently left him deeply mortified.

"You're deceitful!!"

Yang Rui's face was dark with anger, spitting out each word with difficulty, showing just how upset he was.

"Same here~~"

Qin Fang, however, maintained a faint smile, unaffected by Yang Rui's reaction, responding cheerfully.

Seizing the moment, Lin Qian and Everard had already retreated to the corner of the cave, while not completely safe, they were at least less likely to be easily captured alive.

"Forget arguing over pointless matters... Your disruption just now reminded me of what the Xuanmu Order is!"

But, Qin Fang didn't let Yang Rui continue speaking, abruptly changing the topic, "Turns out it's one of the most important tokens of the Thousand Gate... No wonder it sounded so familiar!"

"Uh..."

The anger that was about to erupt from Yang Rui was forced back by Qin Fang's words, nearly causing him internal injuries.

He wasn't a fool; Qin Fang certainly already knew about the Xuanmu Order, only feigning ignorance... and even deliberately snatched it from his hand.

Realizing this, Yang Rui hurriedly checked the Xuanmu Order in his hand, fearing Qin Fang had tampered with it, but after a close inspection, it was indeed the original one, so Yang Rui felt reassured.

The Xuanmu Order was a crucial token of the Thousand Gate, each family only had two, and the one in his hand was painstakingly coaxed from his father.

If the Xuanmu Order had any mishap while in his possession, even if he ultimately defeated Qin Fang and captured Lin Qian, he wouldn't escape punishment from the clan elders.

This punishment wouldn't be light and wouldn't care if he was the direct son of the Yang Family patriarch, the consequences would be more terrible than death, a thousandfold harsher.

It's said that those who broke the rules faced three cuts and six holes as punishment... In fact, this punishment was spread from the Thousand Gate.

However, the three cuts and six holes was a simplified version; the true original was within the Thousand Gate, an unimaginably terrifying method.

If the Xuanmu Order in Yang Rui's hand had an incident, the punishment he'd endure was the original version; perhaps death would be a relief.

But the problem was he wouldn't even have the chance to die, facing at least ten years of purgatory... the mere thought of which made Yang Rui's body shrink involuntarily.

He had witnessed firsthand a top expert from a family being thrown into Purgatory, and in just one month, this once-lofty, fierce "villain" became a docile "little lamb," becoming more miserable as time passed, so much so that he's now unable to even make a sound...

"No need to look; it's your original piece, no matter how many times you check, it's the same!"

Seeing Yang Rui's action, Qin Fang couldn't resist a mocking remark despite not knowing what Yang Rui was pondering.

"Humph~~"

Yang Rui snorted coldly, seemingly unwilling to argue over these trivial topics with Qin Fang.

"Anyway, upon closer inspection... I can't see why you'd carry a fake Xuanmu Order to frighten people?"

But before Yang Rui could act, Qin Fang's next sentence directly plunged him into a cold, venomous purgatory... (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
