Fu Yuanhe Overestimates Himself

"What kind of messy game is this!"

You Ji swung his hand and threw the brush. His long saber swept everything on the table to the ground.

The mystic treasure that Xu Lu and Fu Yuanhe had painstakingly crafted instantly shattered to pieces.

These people were truly a bunch of brutes; what they were best at was destruction.

"Ah, you dare destroy my life's blood!"

Xu Lu was in deep thought when he suddenly felt the person in his hand break free.

Before he could stop him, Fu Yuanhe had already cried out and rushed forward.

"I—"

Xu Lu did not know what to say. Wasn't this just seeking death?

"Secret art, Flying Sand and Rolling Stones!"

Fu Yuanhe shouted loudly, his hands waving in the air.

In an instant, the sand and stones on the ground seemed to be blown up by a wild wind, like a small sandstorm, rolling and rushing toward You Ji and his men.

"Let's go!"

Xu Lu grabbed Fu Yuanhe with one hand and ran outside with all his might.

The kidnappers had all been wiped out by the black-clothed man, and the two of them were clearly no match for You Ji's group.

The Flying Sand and Rolling Stones in the cave obscured their vision.

Xu Lu had already activated the secret art, Heavenly Sound, accurately finding the exit to escape.

Taking advantage of the moment before You Ji and his men could react, Xu Lu pulled Fu Yuanhe and rushed into the passage of the cave.

"Whoosh—"

Just as they entered the passage, the sound of rushing wind rose, and a saber light slashed straight down at his head, swift and venomous.

Xu Lu had already used the reflection of sound waves to know the existence of this person. Shifting his steps, he dodged the saber light and continued to rush forward without stopping.

"My mystic treasure—"

Fu Yuanhe was still crying out noisily.

"Hurry up, cast a secret art to block them!"

Xu Lu shouted loudly. Their lives were almost gone, who cared about some mystic treasure!

"Ah— ah—"

Fu Yuanhe suddenly realized the situation. He waved his hand, wanting to cast a secret art.

Right at this moment, the guard at the cave entrance heard the commotion and rushed over.

"Want to escape from this old man's hands? Keep dreaming!"

The leader's voice rang out, and a fierce aura surged forward.

"Secret art, Great Sun Fist Art!"

The opponent's attack came too quickly; Xu Lu had no time to think.

A streak of fiery light enveloped his fist, and Xu Lu suddenly punched forward.

Boom!

Crack!

Xu Lu felt his arm fracture, and his entire body was instantly sent flying by a massive force, knocking down Fu Yuanhe behind him. The two of them rolled onto the ground together.

"Secret art, Earth Spike!"

Fu Yuanhe's delayed attack finally burst forth.

The ground swelled, forming pillars of Earth Spikes that blocked the leader.

"Secret art, Blindfold Art!"

Xu Lu bounced up from the ground, ignoring the pain in his arm, and instantly released his secret art.

Light and shadow flickered, and the figures of him and Fu Yuanhe vanished into thin air.

"Trivial tricks!"

The opposing leader flew up and kicked several times, shattering the earth spikes on the ground.

Massive chunks of earth and stone, like cannonballs, threw out ripples in the air.

Xu Lu and Fu Yuanhe's figures were directly struck and revealed.

The Blindfold Art only affected the vision of others, making them invisible, but it did not mean they had truly vanished.

The opposing leader unleashed his full strength, directly launching a large-scale indiscriminate attack, breaking Xu Lu's secret art.

Xu Lu's heart felt a wave of bitterness.

The secret arts he possessed were basically auxiliary in nature.

Only now did he discover that his offensive methods were truly lacking.

With only one Great Sun Fist Art, its power was truly not worth mentioning.

"Xu Lu, you go quickly, I will fight them to the death!"

Right at this moment, Fu Yuanhe placed his hand on the cave wall and shouted loudly.

"Secret art, Quicksand!"

Fu Yuanhe's body erupted with a burst of earthy-yellow light, illuminating the cave wall.

In an instant, the rocks on the cave wall actually turned into yellow sand, pouring down in torrents.

Fu Yuanhe's strength was not high, and the power of his secret art was similar, but at this moment, they were inside a cave!

A portion of the rock turning into yellow sand directly destroyed the stable structure of the cave. In an instant, the entire cave began to collapse.

"Seeking death!"

The opposing leader roared in anger, striking away the falling rocks. No longer caring about pursuing Xu Lu and Fu Yuanhe, he turned and ran out of the cave.

What a joke. Even if he was a fourth-rank Mystic Cultivator, he could not withstand a mountain collapse. If he were buried inside, he would surely die.

"Secret art, Earth Evasion!"

Just as Xu Lu was sighing that he would die young, Fu Yuanhe suddenly grabbed him and gave a low shout.

Then, he felt himself enveloped by a burst of light, and with a whoosh, they plunged into the earth.

"Boom!"

His eyes went dark for about several seconds. Xu Lu felt his entire body go hollow, and then, as if leaping out of water, he instantly fell onto solid ground.

"Rumble!"

Not far away, a violent sound traveled over, and several disheveled figures scrambled out of the collapsed cave.

Xu Lu only felt his mouth dry and tongue parched. Had the mountain truly collapsed?

Was Fu Yuanhe actually a hidden powerhouse?

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Fu Yuanhe.

Fu Yuanhe was dazed. Looking at his appearance, he seemed to have been frightened by the mountain collapse as well.

"What kind of powerhouse is this? He just got lucky."

Xu Lu muttered in his heart.

"They are coming!"

Fu Yuanhe whispered. A moment later, he shrugged, seemingly talking to himself to encourage himself.

"What am I afraid of? I am already so formidable, the ones who should be afraid are them!"

Xu Lu could not help but roll his eyes. Don't you have any self-awareness about your own strength?

Just now was pure luck, happening to destroy the structural weakness of the cave, but it did not mean you truly had the ability to destroy a mountain.

Xu Lu looked at those disheveled bandits, then back at Fu Yuanhe, wondering if he should turn around and run. Suddenly, he saw the leader of those bandits turn and flee as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"He looks like a dog."

Fu Yuanhe muttered.

Those bandits fled in extreme disarray. In the end, only four of them successfully escaped, while the others were buried inside, including You Ji.

The surviving bandits were truly terrified.

"Where do you think you're running!"

Seeing the opponents flee, Fu Yuanhe suddenly gained strength. He shouted loudly and actually gave chase.

"Don't!"

Xu Lu opened his mouth to speak.

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

The sound of rushing wind rose as countless dense arrows suddenly shot from all directions.

With several screams, except for a few who followed the bandit leader, the others were shot into hedgehogs.

The bandit leader roared incessantly, continuously casting secret arts, but he only held out for ten-odd breaths longer than his lackeys.

"I am unwilling!"

His eyes bulged as he fell to the ground, dead with his eyes wide open.

Only after the bandit chief was shot dead did dozens of fully armed soldiers rustle out from the surrounding dense forest.

Mixed among them were several Heavenly Officials wearing Taoist robes.

"Don't attack, we are on the same side!"

Fu Yuanhe very decisively raised his hands and shouted loudly.

"Fu Yuanhe!"

A person stepped out from the crowd, clearly the Heavenly Official He Qing.

"What is going on here?

Who was the one who caused the mountain to collapse?"

He Qing glanced at the collapsed cave and asked.

"It was me," Fu Yuanhe puffed out his chest and said. "Just now, I didn't control the power of my attack well, so the commotion was a bit large."

"You?"

He Qing frowned, his face full of disbelief.

"Yes, it was me alone," Fu Yuanhe said. "You don't believe me? I can demonstrate it for you again."

"Fine!"

He Qing nodded without hesitation.

Fu Yuanhe was stunned for a moment, subconsciously turning back to look at Xu Lu.
