Chapter 2501 - 1995: So the Number One Young Expert Is Nothing Special!

The second update, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~ Today I had a face-to-face encounter with the author of "Supreme Cultivation Evil Young Master," and we had a heated discussion, so apologies for the delay in writing!!!...

"Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun?"

Qin Fang wasn't too sure about Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun's intentions, but since they belonged to two opposing factions, it was clear that he didn't have any good intentions by intercepting him directly... Especially since his cultivation had already reached the Great Grandmaster Level Peak, a full level stronger than Qin Fang.

"What do you want?"

Such a powerful opponent, a standout among the younger generation of the Evil Sect. Even if Qin Fang was in his prime, defeating this person would be extremely difficult...

Li Wuhua, although erupting with power not inferior to a Grandmaster-level Peak Strongman, like Qin Fang, was limited by his own cultivation realm, and the secret techniques he cast could not achieve peak state power.

Therefore, Qin Fang could defeat Li Wuhua, but defeating Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun was not so easy... Moreover, Qin Fang was carrying injuries, and his body was slightly weak, far from peak condition.

However, if Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun wanted to deal with him, it wouldn't be easy either...

If Qin Fang were angered, even if he couldn't kill this guy, it wouldn't be a problem to disgust him a little...

"I heard you recently defeated Li Wuhua of Tianwai Tower?"

Fu Hongyun looked at the calm-faced Qin Fang, squinting slightly with curiosity as he scrutinized Qin Fang, seemingly trying to find something special about him... but appeared to have found nothing.

Qin Fang looked very ordinary, the type you wouldn't even recognize in a crowd...

Yet Fu Hongyun felt that this Qin Fang was not simple... Recalling that Qin Fang managed to defeat Li Wuhua of Tianwai Tower, he slightly tensed, no longer as arrogant as before, and instead became cautious.

"So what if I did?"

Qin Fang responded calmly, maintaining his vigilance... Fu Hongyun's reputation wasn't just talk; it was earned with solid victories, having killed more than a few Righteous Path experts.

Not far from Qin Fang, a blood-colored short arrow was lodged in the ground, shot by Fu Hongyun earlier... Looking over at Fu Hongyun, his appearance was both handsome and heroic, with a trace of wickedness between his brows, caused by cultivating evil techniques.

The most conspicuous feature was the long bow slung over his shoulder...

That was his exclusive weapon, the Sky-shaking Bow, paired with the specially crafted blood-colored Piercing Cloud Arrow that almost hit Qin Fang earlier... However, unlike hunters, these blood-colored Piercing Cloud Arrows weren't kept in a quiver on his back but were slanted into a small quiver at his waist.

Fu Hongyun's Qinggong was superb, his speed extremely fast, and a large quiver would easily affect his speed, so he had this small quiver custom-made... Although it could hold fewer arrows, it didn't affect Fu Hongyun's speed.

Although the number of arrows was reduced, considerable effort was put into the arrows' lethality and attack power.

This Piercing Cloud Arrow was specially crafted, much shorter than regular arrows, but its power was astonishing... The arrowhead was customized, with a bit of meteor iron mixed in the materials, allowing it to produce a Gang Qi breaking effect at high speed.

A Grandmaster-level expert's Protective Gang Qi, if unprepared, could easily be pierced by such a blood-colored short arrow...

It's said that some kind of poison, crafted using evil secret techniques, is smeared on these blood-colored short arrows, greatly increasing their lethality to Paramount Experts, let alone those below the Supreme Realm...

Once struck by Fu Hongyun's blood arrow, it basically meant equating to death...

Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun's fame in the Martial World was not only due to his amazing Qinggong but also largely thanks to his archery skills, having killed no small number of experts with his arrows!

"So? Kill you..."

Looking at Qin Fang's calm face, a trace of gloom suddenly flashed in Fu Hongyun's eyes, and he immediately let out a cold snort, quickly flipping his hand to grab the Sky-shaking Bow... and somehow, a blood-colored short arrow was already nocked!

"How fast..."

Seeing how quickly Fu Hongyun nocked and drew the arrow, Qin Fang couldn't help but marvel... Yet simultaneously, an overwhelming sense of danger washed over him, prompting an almost instinctive sidestep to evade.

Buzz~~

Almost as Qin Fang dodged, a buzzing sound reached his ears... the vibration of bowstrings, and Fu Hongyun had already made his move.

"Hmm..."

It's just that Qin Fang was momentarily stunned, feeling rather strange... because there was the sound of a bowstring, but no arrow was released. Fu Hongyun had merely fired a blank shot to scare him.

"Seems like... I have somewhat overestimated you!"

While Qin Fang was in a daze, Fu Hongyun didn't take the opportunity to attack but instead spoke with a teasing tone, his face full of mocking expressions... It was clear that he didn't take Qin Fang seriously at all.

"Judging by this, Li Wuhua from Tianwai Tower... tsk tsk, isn't anything special either!"

Not only did he mock Qin Fang, but even Li Wuhua was dragged down along with him... Of course, this was also a strike against the entire five righteous sects.

"Whether it's overestimation, you're not qualified to judge..."

Qin Fang coldly responded.

Being mocked didn't bother Qin Fang at all... He wasn't like those stubborn old folks in the martial world who would recklessly rush into a fight after a few taunts. After all, a few jabs don't hurt him.

If he really cared about such things, before the big competition of the five sects, the disciples of those sects would have already mocked him to the point of shame and he would have had to kill himself in apology. How else could he have risen so forcefully, even knocking over masters like Li Wuhua?

"Tsk tsk tsk, who knew you had such a sharp tongue..."

Fu Hongyun's eyes narrowed with a hint of fury, clearly provoked by Qin Fang's words... Yet he remained in his verbally sarcastic demeanor without rushing to attack.

Currently, the Evil Sect's Shi Songyun was fully suppressing Venerable Wang Lin. Though he couldn't kill Wang Lin outright, it was clear Wang Lin was on the brink of failing... Once that happened, it would spell disaster for the righteous five sects.

With such an overwhelming advantage, Fu Hongyun naturally wasn't in a hurry to strike against Qin Fang... He was like a cat toying with Qin Fang, the 'mouse' here!

"Qin Fang, why are you still standing there, run!"

Meanwhile, Yun Lan was blocking the Evil Sect experts who were charging over and anxiously yelled towards Qin Fang... He and the other two half-step supreme experts had strength clearly surpassing the opposition, but they were also on the verge of not holding up due to being outnumbered.

Half-step supreme realm experts were indeed significantly stronger than grandmaster peak experts, able to handle four or five opponents without issues, and the three half-step supreme experts could entirely hold back all grandmaster-level experts from the Evil Sect side.

But the issue is...

Hovering above was Shi Songyun, a terrifying supreme realm powerhouse. Though his gangqi territory wasn't aimed specifically at these masters from the five major sects, it did cover them, greatly diminishing Yun Lan and the others' power.

Losing their relatively strong advantage, and being outnumbered, Yun Lan and his group were in a precarious situation... Once Shi Songyun was free to act, a shock of his gangqi territory could wipe them all out.

If it came to that, Qin Fang wouldn't be able to escape even if he wanted to...

Seeing Qin Fang still there, of course, Yun Lan grew particularly anxious... This half-step supreme was risking his life for the escape of the Kunlun sect disciples!

More precisely, to let Qin Fang escape...

"Want to leave? I'm afraid that's not up to you..."

Fu Hongyun naturally heard Yun Lan's shout, wearing a faint smile and a playful expression as he spoke... Earlier, Qin Fang had also attempted to break out from here, but he had intercepted him effortlessly.

He had abstained from aiding the other Evil Sect experts, solely to block Qin Fang...

The other disciples of the five Great Sects could escape, but a genius disciple like Qin Fang had to be captured... Otherwise, what else would they negotiate with the five major sects?

The original plan of planting internal agents among the 30 disciples of the five major sects entering had failed, and the Evil Sect's scheme was entirely exposed, thus they could only proceed with the second plan... Capture distinguished disciples like Qin Fang to coerce the major sects into a compromise, surrendering some slots for entering the barbaric wilderness mini secret realm!

The benefits of the barbaric wilderness mini secret realm were of no importance; they weren't even considered. Their true objective was to use the mini secret realm to find the location of the true savage secret realm...

According to Qin Fang's knowledge, the Evil Sect had a portion of the secret realm map, leading them to launch such a reckless full-blown operation... Once the location of the savage secret realm was found, any loss would be acceptable for the Evil Sect.

It's said that Emperor Shi Wanxie's cultivation was stuck at the late-stage peak of the supreme realm, just one step away from reaching the supreme realm pinnacle...

Yet, this critical step is like an insurmountable chasm in front of him.

He has tried various means to break through over these years but with no success... Until he found a damaged map of the savage secret realm, he suddenly saw a glimmer of hope for a breakthrough.
