Xiang Yu watched the incoming fist with widening eyes.
[Enemy]
He really had let his guard down this time. But his battle instinct didn’t let him stay in the trance for long as he instantly recovered, entering combat-ready status. He moved his hand, placing the talisman he’d just finished making on the opponent’s fist before retreating back a few steps.
[Talisman]
In the next second, an explosion erupted, the shockwave pushing Xiang Yu—who was already several steps away—even further back.
"So powerful?" he gasped, surprised by the effect.
He hadn’t expected a ninth-grade talisman to be so potent. No wonder a Foundation Establishment cultivator kept it as a trump card. It made sense since even the lowest grade talisman could only be made by a Golden Core cultivator. f(r)eew(e)bnovel.(c)o(m)
He was really grateful that he had killed Wang Wei and the other assassin before they could employ this trump card, otherwise, he would’ve been the one to die. The only problem was that his newly built house had also been caught in the blast.
When the explosion dust finally settled, he could finally see the opponent clearly.
[Enemy] * 3
To his surprise, there were actually three of them, and they didn’t seem to be harmed at all, except for the one in the front who appeared to have taken on the full blast. He was a huge man with a muscular stature. His right hand had been blown right off, but he still remained calm. Xiang Yu used his qi sense and was shocked—the two others were actually middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, while the huge man was an early-stage Core Formation cultivator.
Xiang Yu now understood why the others were unharmed—the man had blocked the explosion for them. Xiang Yu felt truly nervous. Not to mention the Core Formation cultivator, he didn’t even know if he could win against the middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. Had the heavens really decided to kill him today?
Though anxiety churned inside him, he maintained an outwardly calm facade. He needed to come up with a plan.
The huge man held his remaining arm, using qi to stabilize the blood flow.
"I thought that it was a killing formation or a hidden expert," the man spoke, his voice steady despite his injury. "Who would’ve thought that it was just a kid playing around with talismans."
As he spoke, he used voice transmission to communicate with the others. "~Don’t let your guard down. I used almost half my strength to take on that attack." He thought to himself that he had been caught off guard since the disciple didn’t seem to have any cultivation. To think that the boy would use a talisman at such close proximity—he could only take it head-on.
"Demonic cultivators, you think I don’t know your scheme?" Xiang Yu shouted, causing the man to be startled. Could it be that their plan had already been exposed? How could he know that they were demonic cultivators?
"Today, this elder will teach you a lesson," Xiang Yu declared confidently. In the next second, talismans appeared in his hands—there were almost a dozen of them. When the big man saw this, he panicked. How could this youth have so many talismans? Xiang Yu then threw all of them towards the intruders.
"Not good! Run!" the Core Formation cultivator shouted, and the three scattered in different directions. The big man perched atop a tree, a few meters away from where he was before. "Hmm, why isn’t the explosion happening?" he wondered. He then looked toward where the talismans had been thrown, only to see pieces of paper scattered on the ground. And Xiang Yu—he was gone.
