Chapter 862 Continuous Breakthroughs!
Ruan Changhong was forced to step back and was once again kicked into the sea by Fang Qiu.
The martial arts pract.i.tioners from the Southeast Region hastily ran over and pulled him out from the sea.
“Aargh… John Doe!!!” Ruan Changhong’s eyes were bloodshot from his anger. He looked up at the sky and roared furiously.
He was the chosen one and the glory in Southern Yue. He had never been so humiliated.
He must kill John Doe!
He said to himself, “I must kill him!!!”
However, Fang Qiu ignored him. Instead, he turned to He Gaoming, who had just come ash.o.r.e, and said, “Go ahead. This is a good opportunity to cultivate. Go and fight!”
When they heard that, the eight people led by He Gaoming, howled in unison.
They had swum 10 kilometers and used up all their internal Qi. How could they fight?
Although they were a little speechless, the nine of them still rushed into the battlefield and started their own fights, according to Fang Qiu’s instructions!
Seeing that John Doe ignored him, Ruan Changhong immediately shouted angrily, “John Doe, I’ll fight you to the death!”
“You?” Fang Qiu turned his head, glanced at Ruan Changhong, and said disdainfully, “Wimp!”
“You, you…” Ruan Changhong was enraged. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, due to his immense anger.
Fang Qiu shook his head in disdain and said with a sneer, “The top expert in Southern Yue? As expected, this small country raises narrow-minded people.
“You should see how magnanimous Yun Yangzi was after he lost. You can’t compare with him at all!”
“You—” When Ruan Changhong heard this, he spat out another mouthful of blood. He was so outraged that he almost fainted!
No matter how hostile he was, Fang Qiu ignored him and turned to look at the battlefield.
Due to his appearance, Huaxia people were imbued with confidence.
The people from the Southeast Region had long been suppressed by him.
Soon, the battle was drawing to an end.
Without Ruan Changhong’s help, all the martial arts pract.i.tioners from the Southeast Region were severely defeated. The Huaxia martial arts pract.i.tioners won.
“Let’s go!!!” Knowing that they couldn’t win, Ruan Changhong immediately roared and was ready to take everyone away.
“Wait a minute!” Fang Qiu suddenly said.
Ruan Changhong stopped, so did other people from the Southeast Region. They all looked at Fang Qiu in horror, for fear that he wouldn’t allow them to leave.
“You can go.” Fang Qiu glanced at all the people from the Southeast Region and said in a cold voice, “But before you leave, tell me who killed our Huaxia fishermen.”
Everyone could sense the murderous intent in his voice.
All the martial arts pract.i.tioners from the Southeast Region could not help trembling.
Ruan Changhong gritted his teeth and was about to say something.
“Swish.” Fang Qiu suddenly moved.
He could clearly see that someone was s.h.i.+vering violently when he finished speaking.
It was obvious that this man was the murderer!
In a flash, Fang Qiu appeared in front of the man. He reached out his right hand and grasped the man’s neck. With a grim look, he said, “Use your life to make an apology!”
“John Doe!” Ruan Changhong shouted furiously, “Don’t push your luck!”
“Humph!” Fang Qiu snorted and replied, “So what if I push it?”
After that, his right hand directly twisted the murderer’s neck.
“Crack!” There was a crisp sound.
The murderer was still in a panic, but his neck had been broken by Fang Qiu.
“One life in exchange for so many lives. You’re lucky!”
As he spoke, Fang Qiu simply threw the murderer’s body into the distance as if he was tossing rubbish away. Then the body fell onto the reefs by the sea.
Ruan Changhong exploded with anger.
However, he knew that he was no match for John Doe and he was injured now.
If he started another fight, none of them could leave the place alive.
For his own safety, it was better to leave first.
Ruan Changhong gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s go!!”
A few people sped out of the crowd to carry the killer’s body away. They walked to the edge of the island and were about to board the s.h.i.+p.
“Whoos.h.!.+” A cold light suddenly flashed in Ruan Changhong’s eyes.
He picked up the paper fan that had fallen to the ground due to Fang Qiu’s strike. He threw it with a swoosh. Instead of opening up, it was headed for the immature Heaven Treasure in the distance at a blindingly fast speed like an incomparably sharp embroidery needle.
He was going to destroy the Heaven Treasure!
He could leave in humiliation, but he would not leave the treasure to John Doe so easily!
“Humph!” Fang Qiu snorted angrily. He stamped his feet and the internal Qi in his body surged, then he threw a punch into the air.
A ma.s.s of internal Qi suddenly flew out of his hand like a bullet. With a swish, it shot out and instantly knocked down the paper fan.
“Clang! Clang!” At this moment, Ruan Changhong did not hesitate. He pulled out the long sword hanging on the waist of the man beside him and was about to throw it at the immature Heaven Treasure again. He still wanted to destroy it.
“You’re courting death!” Fang Qiu’s eyes turned cold. He stamped his foot, and a nearby sh.e.l.l rose into the air. He stretched his right hand, grabbed the sh.e.l.l, and immediately flung it out.
The sh.e.l.l was like an invincible sharp knife, spinning rapidly in the air and hurtling toward Ruan Changhong at lightning speed.
“Crack!” A crisp slash sounded.
As the sh.e.l.l pa.s.sed by him, Ruan Changhong’s whole arm was directly sliced off!
“Aargh—” A heart-wrenching scream was heard.
Seeing this, the people from the Southeast Region didn’t dare to stay any longer. They didn’t even have the courage to think about revenge, for the impression John Doe gave them, was too powerful. They hurriedly escorted Ruan Changhong away.
“John Doe, I’ll definitely kill you!!!” After boarding the boat, Ruan Changhong’s loud roar, amidst the crowd, could be heard.
“Humph!” Fang Qiu sneered and said to him, “Tell your people this. Anyone who dares to set foot on the Huaxia coastline shall be killed!”
His deafening voice with its tremendous sound waves, rolled across the sea and even stirred up strong waves, which was extremely remarkable!
When the people from the Southeast Region witnessed this, they hastily started the boat and fled.
If they still stayed there, the boat would probably be overturned by the waves!
Observing the opponents escaping in a panic, all the people in Huaxia were overjoyed. They whistled and laughed at their defeat.
Then they shouted in unison.
“John Doe!”
“John Doe!”
“John Doe!”
Everyone raised their arms and cheered at the same time.
If it weren’t for John Doe’s timely appearance, they would have been the ones who were fleeing now.
If that were the case, not only could they not avenge the fishermen, but even the island that belonged to Huaxia would be occupied by others.
The presence of John Doe prevented them from being bullied by foreigners in their country.
He helped them vent their anger!
Listening to the shouts of the crowd, Fang Qiu smiled and reached out his hand to motion for everyone to stop.
“Guys, I have something to say,” Fang Qiu said.
Only then did the crowd stop cheering.
Fang Qiu looked at everyone and said, “Guys, I came here for two things. The first thing is to solve this dispute and avenge those innocent fishermen. The second thing is to get the Heaven Treasure.”
“Now, the first thing has been done. I also hope that you will not fight anymore. I want this Heaven Treasure!”
His voice was rather low, but what he said was deterring.
Fang Qiu did not beat around the bush. He only wanted the Heaven Treasure.
Everyone was stunned.
However, none of them said anything.
They also wanted the Heaven Treasure, but if it were not for John Doe, they could not even have kept the Heaven Treasure.
Therefore, they had no objection to John Doe asking for the Heaven Treasure!
Seeing that no one objected, Fang Qiu nodded.
He then came to the nine people led by He Gaoming, who were lying and panting heavily at the edge of the crowd.
“Get up and come with me.” Fang Qiu shouted at the nine people.
He didn’t care about what the other Huaxia martial arts pract.i.tioners wanted to do anymore. Now that the matter had been settled, he would let them decide what their next course of action would be.
He Gaoming swiftly rose to his feet.
The eight people led by Liang Fen immediately struggled to stand up.
Behind Fang Qiu, He Gaoming asked, “Master, this island is so small. Where are we going?”
Fang Qiu replied, “Continue to practice the moves.”
“What?” When he heard that, He Gaoming’s expression changed instantly. He asked, “No way. Again?”
Fang Qiu said, “If you want to make a breakthrough, you have to break your original limit. That’s a real breakthrough!”
Everyone wailed, but then the image of Fang Qiu coming down from the helicopter and the battle that just took place appeared in their minds.
Eager to increase their strength, they could only grit their teeth and persevere.
Under Fang Qiu’s supervision, the group of people continued to practice hard.
“Haha.” But when they were halfway through the practice, He Gaoming suddenly burst out laughing and immediately stepped out from the team. He sat cross-legged on the beach. After a while, he successfully broke through and became a fourth-cla.s.s Martial Superior.
But as soon as he broke through, Liang Fen also got up excitedly from the cultivation team. Like He Gaoming, he sat cross-legged on the ground and broke through to the third cla.s.s.
After Liang Fen, there was another one who broke through successfully.
The group of people made continuous breakthroughs, which shocked the other Wulin people who were observing the island from a distance!
“What the f*ck? Did they just make a breakthrough like that?”
“Although they are third-cla.s.s and fourth-cla.s.s Martial Superiors, isn’t it too easy for them to make such a breakthrough?”
“How did they do it?”
Before anyone could react, the fourth and fifth persons also made breakthroughs.
“Another two?”
“D*mn it, how could they break through continuously? They are like firecrackers, aren’t they? They just broke through one after another.”
More and more Wulin people gathered around them.
They were all dumbfounded by the breakthroughs of this group of people.
They clearly perceived that the strongest among them was at the peak of the third cla.s.s, and the rest were at the second cla.s.s. But in the blink of an eye, He Gaoming, who had been at the peak of the third cla.s.s, reached the fourth cla.s.s, and four second-cla.s.s Martial Superiors also broke through to the third cla.s.s.
It seemed extremely easy for them to break through.
“I’m coming! I’m coming!” Someone shouted in excitement. The sixth and the seventh persons also ran out, sat down, and broke through.
All the people present were stunned.
“d.a.m.n, is it really so easy to break through?”
When all the nine people led by He Gaoming broke through, the whole place fell silent. No one could imagine this, which was incredible.
It was a miracle!
No one would believe it even if they told others this.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would slap those who told them this in the face and say that they were dreaming!
The other Wulin people watched enviously as these people continued to cultivate.
The slowly gathering crowd of people from Wulin began to whisper.
“Are these people brought by John Doe?”
“Is it so easy to break through with John Doe?”
“That’s amazing. Just now, John Doe was watching them cultivate.”
“I’ve heard that John Doe could easily guide people to make a breakthrough, but I didn’t expect that it would be so effortless. John Doe is really incredible!”
“What do you think about asking John Doe to give us some guidance?”
As soon as someone proposed that, the whole place fell silent.
They looked at each other and could see the desire in each other’s eyes. They were extremely tempted.
But no one had the nerve to ask John Doe for that.
After a while, a girl bit her lower lip. With a trace of determination in her eyes, she moved timidly to Fang Qiu’s side.
The girl looked at Fang Qiu and asked softly, “Senior… Senior John Doe, can you give us some guidance? We also want to improve our strength.”
Fang Qiu turned to look at the girl in confusion.
The girl quickly said, “Senior, the people from the Southeast Region will definitely come again. If we can improve our strength, we can do a better job in a.s.sisting you.”
Fang Qiu looked at her and then turned around. He found that everyone was looking at him expectantly.
He pondered about it and then nodded.
“Okay.” They were all Huaxia people, and at such a critical moment, it was time for them to help each other even if he didn’t need their a.s.sistance.
When she heard Fang Qiu agreeing to her request, the girl was surprised and excited.
The eyes of the other people also lit up with joy.
It was so fortunate for them to receive instructions from the top expert among the younger generation in Wulin!
“Okay.” Fang Qiu looked at everyone and said, “Anyone who wants to improve can show me your own moves.”
When they heard that, the hundred or more Wulin people present were all stunned.
Was he going to instruct over 100 people at the same time? Could he cover all of them?
Although they had doubts in their hearts, they found a relatively flat open s.p.a.ce and began to practice martial arts together.
Everyone was practicing.
Fang Qiu merely stood in front of them and didn’t make any moves.
“Stop!” Five minutes later, Fang Qiu suddenly asked them to stop.
Everyone stopped and looked at Fang Qiu in confusion.
They were baffled that John Doe had asked them to perform martial arts together. After all, there were so many people practicing martial arts together. Could John Doe watch each of one clearly?
Moreover, they had only practiced for five minutes. Why did he ask them to stop?
Just as everyone was feeling confused, Fang Qiu walked to the first person.
“You should be practicing the palm technique. Although it is ethereal and agile, something is missing in every move you just made, which leads to insufficient strength. If you want to change it, you must not only control your own strength but also control the strength given by your body. The power should be raised from your waist to your hand. The better body coordination can greatly improve your strength.”
After that, Fang Qiu went straight to the second person and said, “You are practicing leg techniques. You’re strong but lack flexibility…”
Just as Fang Qiu was talking to the second person, the first person had begun to specifically change and practice according to what Fang Qiu said.
With this change, he found that the power of his palm technique truly improved greatly!
“Senior John Doe, thank you.”
Seeing that Fang Qiu had finished speaking to the second person, the first person was extremely thrilled and immediately made a fist salute to express his grat.i.tude.
