Chapter 865 Scared to Death!
On the sea one kilometer away from the island, over 100 people were so astounded by this scene that they couldn’t speak for some time.
They felt that they would never forget what had just happened, which was too shocking.
John Doe’s image was deeply imprinted in their minds like an immortal.
Most of them had only heard of how powerful John Doe was, but they had never witnessed it with their own eyes. Even though they learned that Fang Qiu cut off Yun Yangzi’s Heaven-slas.h.i.+ng Sword with one palm, they still couldn’t imagine how extraordinary Fang Qiu was.
But now, seeing this scene in front of them, they finally comprehended.
What was the real No.1?
They finally realized why John Doe could defeat Yun Yangzi, and why Yun Yangzi was convinced of his defeat!
It was all because of John Doe’s unquestionable strength!
At this very moment, everyone deemed that he was the best among the younger generation in Huaxia Wulin. John Doe truly lived up to his reputation!
While everyone in the sea was amazed by Fang Qiu’s incredible strength, He Gaoming’s eyes flashed with deep worry.
This destructive move must have consumed an enormous amount of John Doe’s energy.
Right now, the Heaven Treasure was here and numerous martial arts pract.i.tioners were here too. If they took advantage of this situation…
He was not overthinking. As a detective, he had seen all kinds of corruption in the human nature.
“Let’s go.” He immediately shouted at the eight people beside him, and then rapidly rushed to the island.
After das.h.i.+ng to the coast, the group of people immediately rushed over to hold Fang Qiu, who was by now, feeling a bit weak.
“Whew…” Fang Qiu gasped.
That move had truly exhausted all his internal Qi and mental power!
The Great Hand of Destruction needed a lot of spiritual energy. In addition, Fang Qiu had to use his spiritual force to control the condensed seawater, which made the consumption even greater.
The arrow not only contained the Qi of Heaven and Earth, but also his internal Qi.
Fortunately, he succeeded.
“Pitter-patter… ” At this moment, hurried footsteps could be heard.
The other Huaxia martial arts pract.i.tioners also returned to the island, one after another. No one spoke. They just stood right in front of Fang Qiu, He Gaoming, and the others, as if they were on the opposite side.
He Gaoming immediately frowned when he saw this.
He looked gloomily at everyone and snorted, “Anyone who wants to fight, come at me!”
Everyone was stunned and then fell silent when they heard that.
Truth be told, the moment they saw that Fang Qiu had to be supported due to his weak state, most of them subconsciously looked at the Heaven Treasure.
That was the Cyan Dragon Lock!
A super Heaven Treasure ranked 10th on the Heaven Treasure List, which could help a seventh-cla.s.s Martial Superior open two more meridians. For those below the seventh cla.s.s, it would not be a problem for them to improve by one cla.s.s.
It was a pity that their cell phones had no signal, so they couldn’t send messages to people in Huaxia. Otherwise, it would be great for the forces behind them to send someone to fight for it!
Although Fang Qiu had guided them before, could Fang Qiu’s little advice be compared to the Cyan Dragon Lock?
Obviously not!
Therefore, they all wanted to seize the Heaven Treasure, and this was the best time for them to take action.
However, when they walked toward Fang Qiu, they all stopped.
Who dared to make a move?
Who could bear to do it?
They were all aware that without Fang Qiu’s help, they would have been blown into pieces by the missiles of the fighter.
They would likely be killed by the martial arts pract.i.tioners from the Southeast Region led by Ruan Changhong during the day!
In the face of such a savior and a guardian of their homeland, how could they attack him?
Just like that, the two sides began to stare at each other.
There was complete silence.
Fang Qiu had a smile on his face and did not speak.
“Hey, what are you talking about?” In the opposite crowd, a st.u.r.dy man suddenly shouted and stood out, breaking the silence. He shouted at He Gaoming, “Am I that kind of man? I admire John Doe. He gave me some advice. I’ll fight whoever dares to attack John Doe to the death!”
After that, he rapidly swept over all the martial arts pract.i.tioners.
“I don’t believe it. You just received a favor from John Doe in the afternoon and were saved by his warning. Now that he is weak, you’re planning to attack him. Are you still humane?”
The middle-aged man, who was guided by Fang Qiu and instantly became a fifth-cla.s.s Martial Superior in the afternoon, also stood up and said, “You can fight with John Doe over my dead body!”
There were several people coming out in succession because they couldn’t bear to attack John Doe at this moment. Besides, he had people backing him up, so it was too late for them to do anything.
It was justifiable for John Doe to get the Cyan Dragon Lock. After all, he had earned it with his life and strength.
In the end, everyone jumped out righteously from the opposite side and stood on the same side as Fang Qiu.
“Thank you, everyone.” Seeing that they were getting righteous, He Gaoming breathed a sigh of relief. It was such a close call.
If someone decided to fight them, the nine of them were definitely no match for the people here. Fortunately, everyone had a good conscience.
He immediately cupped his hands gratefully to the crowd, and then brought Fang Qiu to the high ground on the other side.
With He Gaoming’s help, Fang Qiu glanced at everyone with a gratified smile.
Sure enough, no one took action.
Although the battle just now had made him lose all his internal Qi, he, Fang Qiu, was not someone who could be defeated easily.
The military base on the border of Southern Yue was silent at this time.
“Poseidon. He’s Poseidon….”
“Aargh…”
“Boom!”
The shocking words of the pilot rang out in the command room. Then, a scream was heard, accompanied by a huge explosion.
The communication device was suddenly disconnected.
There was nothing left, and they couldn’t hear anything else.
The recording had been played over and over again, and every time it was played, everyone became even more depressed.
They couldn’t imagine how one person could fight against a fighter.
That was an actual fighter!
But it was destroyed by a man with his bare hands!
How did this happen?
“Who the h.e.l.l is he?”
Not only the military officers in the command room looked gloomy, but Ruan Changhong, who had been sitting in front of the command desk, suddenly turned pale!
“No, no…
“How did he do it? How could he do it?
“He’s a man. No matter how strong he is, he’s just a human made of flesh and blood. How did he manage to do it? How could he even knock down a fighter?
“Is he human?
“Is he still human?”
Suddenly, Ruan Changhong was a little scared.
He had faced an unimaginably powerful enemy!
He couldn’t imagine how strong a person must be to be able to do such a terrifying act as shooting down a fighter.
What John Doe confronted was not only the fighter but also the two guided missiles and the high-speed machine guns with terrifying shooting speed and penetrating power!
Not only did he manage to resist these two kinds of powerful weapons, but he also shot down the fighter.
What kind of power was this?
Other people might not understand.
However, Ruan Changhong, who had the strength of an eighth-cla.s.s Martial Superior with three opened meridians, knew it quite well.
He couldn’t do it, and no one he knew could do it!
Such a powerful person became his mortal enemy.
“What if he comes to kill me?” When he thought of this, Ruan Changhong’s body trembled slightly.
“No! No! He must die!” Ruan Changhong’s face turned ferocious again in an instant, which was extremely scary.
He and John Doe had reached the point where they would fight each other to the death. John Doe must have figured out that he was the one who had sent the fighter.
Therefore, as long as John Doe was alive, his safety could not be guaranteed!
If he wanted to live, John Doe had to die!
He was unable to kill John Doe, and even the fighter failed to kill John Doe. What should he do?
Could he use long-range guided missiles?
He immediately banished this thought. The impact was too serious, which was not something he could handle at all.
“What should I do? What should I do?” Ruan Changhong clutched his hair tightly with his remaining hand. He pondered it for a while with a ferocious and panicky look and then he suddenly raised his head.
“Right! Bounty! I can put a bounty on his head!
“Since I can’t kill him, I can post a reward and get someone else to kill him!!”
The people in the military were baffled after the shock.
Their country had lost a fighter because of this. How were they going to report this to the government?
Ruan Changhong didn’t care about it at all.
He seemed to have gone crazy.
He rose to his feet and rushed out immediately.
On the island, He Gaoming helped Fang Qiu to the gra.s.s beside the Cyan Dragon Lock so that he could sit cross-legged and start his recovery.
After all, this was the place where the Cyan Dragon Lock grew.
It was the growth place of the Heaven Treasure ranked 10th. The surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth was much stronger than it was in other places. Therefore, it was undoubtedly the best place for Fang Qiu’s recuperation!
Fang Qiu started his recovery process.
He Gaoming and the other eight people surrounded Fang Qiu and guarded him.
Of course, Fang Qiu was also keeping an eye on the surroundings. He knew that there would be more intense battles in the next few days, so he had to recover as soon as possible.
However, he was not afraid at all. On the contrary, he was extremely looking forward to it.
What he needed was a battle, a breakthrough!
“What’s going on?” In Huaxia, Li Ji received a report call.
“Our radar detected a fighter from Southern Yue invading our country’s territory. When our fighter was about to take off and intercept it, we found that their fighter suddenly disappeared.” The person on the other end of the line reported.
“Location?” Li Ji instantly asked. The invasion of fighters was not part of his responsibilities. Since this matter had been reported to him, there must be a reason.
“I’ve sent you the coordinates.” Li Ji looked at the computer in the military base and saw the precise coordinates.
“Hmm?” Li Ji’s eyes widened and he was amazed.
Wasn’t this the island where the Heaven Treasure grew?
Li Ji hurriedly said, “Tell me the details.”
“It’s certain that the fighter of Southern Yue did intrude into our country’s territory, but it’s also confirmed that the fighter didn’t fly back. It’s very likely that it was struck down,” the person on the other end of the line said.
“What?!” Li Ji exclaimed when he heard this.
He thought to himself, “A fighter plane was brought down? There were no lethal weapons on that island! And no garrison around! It was shot down just like that. How was this possible? Was it Fang Qiu? Did Fang Qiu strike it?”
The person on the other end of the phone continued. “One more thing. According to the radar report, the fighter from Southern Yue fired two guided missiles, but they were all intercepted halfway and did not cause any harm to our territory.”
“Hiss—” Li Ji gasped.
Were the two guided missiles intercepted?
He immediately came to this conclusion.
It must be Fang Qiu!
On that island, the strongest one was Fang Qiu. Even if the others worked together, they could not resist the attack of a missile.
If someone could do it, it must be Fang Qiu.
“However, could Fang Qiu really block two missiles and even shoot down the fighter? Is, is he still a human? Is this his true capability?” The more Li Ji thought about it, the more shocked he became.
Every time, he thought he had already comprehended Fang Qiu’s real strength, Fang Qiu’s every performance would completely overthrow his guess.
What else could he say?
“Fang Qiu is incredibly powerful!”
It was true that his strength was equivalent to that of a nuclear weapon.
When Li Ji thought that a man managed to bring down a fighter by himself, he felt exhilarated. He wished that he could have been there at that time!
Meanwhile, the issuance of a bounty suddenly caused a stir among the underground forces in the world.
