Chapter 388 - The Peak Master And Junior Elder's Arrival!
Lin Mu’s was fine upon hearing the first name but the second name made his face tense up. He didn’t dare turn around and simply looked through the side of his hair. It had grown long enough that it reached the base of his neck and covered the side of his face.
Looking from this angle, it hid his face, but he was still able to see through the gaps in his hair locks. He gazed at the person accompanying Peak master Yi Deng and indeed found him to be Junior Elder Fa Shiu who he had missed out on killing.
Wu Hei had looked for the man everywhere in the city as well as the outskirts but the man had disappeared in a strange manner. There were still people looking for him but were unsuccessful. Lin Mu was still a bit worried about him in these past few days but since the man had not shown up his concern had lessened.
But now it had been turned up to the very max and made him anxious. He looked towards Wu Hei and saw him glancing at him too. There was a warning in his sight that told him not to act right now. Lin Mu could tell that even Wu Hei was taken aback and was quickly thinking of something.
"Alright fighters take their place, and... Fight!" The referee ordered.
The Peak master and Fa Shiu were walking towards the seating area and had barely seen towards the fighting ring. Even the disciples of the Tri cauldron peony sect seemed to be a bit surprised but also delighted at the same time. Fa Lao was elated at the sight of his elder brother as well.
Lin Mu’s attention was still a bit distracted due to this, and thus he slowed his response when Qing Yuan Tiu attacked him first.
~Whoosh~
Unlike before, Qing Yuan Tiu was using a different technique and had not extended the metal rods. Instead of using the Gale River Palm, she was using a different qi skill. This skill had created a few swirling orbs of greenish winds that floated around Qing Yuan Tiu.
She had shot out one of these very orbs at Lin Mu. Qing Yuan Tiu knew that she had to change her strategy against Lin Mu as the boy was much faster than her. While she had confidence that she could defeat him in a fight of pure strength, he had the upper hand here due to his speed.
Once they reached the top and talked with others, Lin Mu knew that it would become close to immortal for him to hide his identity.
While Lin Mu was thinking his speed has slowed by the slightest and Qing Yuan Tiu noticed this.
’So he can’t keep up this speed continuously... it must be quite taxing on him.’ She thought.
Qing Yuan Tiu then flourished her hands and spread them wide. Ten more greenish wind orbs formed and surrounded her.
"GO!" she uttered and flicked her hands towards Lin Mu.
The orbs mirrored her actions and flew towards Lin Mu, some going in a straight line while the others curving around to surround him from all sides.
Lin Mu saw them coming and gritted his teeth.
"I’ll have to try it at least..." He muttered to himself before his eyes lit up with a fierce flint.
Qing Yuan Tiu saw it for a moment and was surprised, before feeling a tinge of fear in her heart.
’Boulder Collapsing Fist: First form- Impact!’
~BOOM~
A big cloud of dust was kicked up, shrouding the ring.
