1278 Confronting Bai Xutao

"I don"t care who you are, I swear upon my name that I will rip you from limb to limb and feed your bones to the dogs for this humiliation!!!" Bai Xutao growled as he stood up and glared at Yuan with intense killing intent in his gaze. In his entire life, he has never felt so humiliated before, and what he experienced with Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili could be neglected in comparison.

In response, Yuan chuckled, "Rip me from limb to limb? You can"t even court girls properly, yet you want to do something that complicated? I cannot wait to see you try."

Bai Xutao"s face was so red from anger that steam could be seen coming out of his ears.

"I"m going to kill you!" Bai Xutao"s aura exploded.

However, before Bai Xutao could do anything, Yuan escaped through the window.

Bai Xutao was taken aback by this and roared, "Are you serious?! Where the f.u.c.k do you think you are going?!"

Without even thinking about it, Bai Xutao immediately chased after Yuan.

While in hot pursuit of Yuan, Bai Xutao couldn"t help but notice the familiarity in Yuan"s movement technique. However, his seething anger prevented him from realizing that it was the very same technique employed by Feng Yuxiang when they fought.

"Hey! You"re a little slow for a dog! Are you hurt somewhere? Do you want me to slow down a little for you?" Yuan suddenly took the time to provoke Bai Xutao in the middle of their cat-and-mouse chase.

Bai Xutao was so angry that he couldn"t even find any words to respond. Instead, he released a primal, thunderous roar that reverberated through the air. In the very next moment, his speed surged dramatically.

Seeing this, Yuan also increased his speed — just enough that it seemed like Bai Xutao was slowly catching up.

Eventually, they ventured so far from the city that nothing but trees and mountains stretched as far as the eye could discern.

Once he was confident that their fight would not disturb anyone, Yuan slowed down to a halt.

When Bai Xutao saw this chance, his eyes lit up, and without stopping, he rushed at Yuan with his claw-like hands ready to s.n.a.t.c.h Yuan by the throat.

Right as Bai Xutao"s claws reached his throat, Yuan"s figure flickered, disappearing right before Bai Xutao"s eyes.

"Gah!"

Yuan reemerged by Bai Xutao"s side the next instant, his fist struck deep into Bai Xutao"s stomach, forcing everything he had consumed at the restaurant out.

And without giving Bai Xutao a chance to recover, Yuan continued to beat him until Bai Xutao eventually escaped from his grasp.

"Y-You f.u.c.king b.a.s.t.a.r.d…" Bai Xutao muttered as he gasped for air.

Underestimating Yuan due to his Spirit King cultivation turned out to be a costly mistake for Bai Xutao, resulting in a thorough beating for several moments.

If his friends learned that he"d taken a beating from someone in the Third Heaven— even if it was just for a brief moment, he would become a laughingstock for several centuries.

"I will admit that you took me by surprise there. However, that was your only chance to kill me, and you just missed it." Bai Xutao said after he wiped the puke from his mouth.

"Is that so?" Yuan remained calm as he waited for Bai Xutao"s next move.

"Before I kill you, tell me, why did you come after me? And why are you hiding your face behind a mask? Are you afraid that I would recognize you? Or are you just that ugly?" Bai Xutao inquired with an arrogant look on his face.

"No real reason at all. You look like a good punching bag, and I just couldn"t help myself." Yuan casually shrugged.

"...I see…" Bai Xutao murmured as his aura surged drastically.

"Don"t worry, I won"t kill you immediately. I am going to give you a slow and painful death!" Bai Xutao exclaimed as his figure flickered, disappearing into thin air.

"Heavenly Tiger"s Advance."

Bai Xutao materialized behind Yuan in an instant, his claw-like hands already closing in on Yuan"s neck.

"Heavenly Tiger"s Fangs."

Without glancing back, Yuan pivoted around, his fist shrouded in a tyrannical energy.

[Relentless Dragon Overwhelms the Nine Heavens]

With intent, Yuan directed his fist squarely at Bai Xutao"s claw-like hands

When their attacks clashed, Bai Xutao grimaced in excruciating pain, as Yuan"s overwhelming strength obliterated his entire right arm, tearing his muscles and shattering his bones instantly.

When he looked at his right arm, it was a gruesome mess, looking as though it had been through a meat grinder.

The very next moment, Bai Xutao reached into his spatial ring with his left hand and retrieved a pill, tossing it directly into his mouth.

Yuan then watched as Bai Xutao"s destroyed arm made a full recovery within seconds before his very eyes.

"That medicine is pretty strong. If only your arm was as strong as the medicine, it wouldn"t have snapped like a twig." Yuan did not forget to provoke him some more.

Bai Xutao glared at him with a deep frown.

"What the h.e.l.l is going on? He"s clearly only a Spirit King, so how is he overpowering me?" he wondered inwardly.

The strength he had exerted could have effortlessly vanquished both Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili in a single blow, yet he suffered another humiliating defeat at the hands of a mere Spirit King— a human at that.

After experiencing so many defeats, not to mention the pain of his arm being destroyed, Bai Xutao"s fury subsided, granting him a moment of clarity. In his current condition, he could see that the masked man wasn"t an ordinary human, and there was something profound about him.

"You"re not from this realm, are you?" Bai Xutao asked him.

"No, I am not." Yuan gave him a proper response for the first time.

Upon hearing Yuan"s words, Bai Xutao swiftly deduced that Yuan must hail from the upper heavens, much like himself.

"No wonder why he"s wearing that mask. He doesn"t want me to know his ident.i.ty," he thought.

Unbeknownst to him, he was only half right. But he couldn"t have guessed that Yuan was someone from Earth— at world that is even weaker than the Lower Heavens.
