Purple Mist Dao Master

Chapter 706 - 433 Tier 3! _2

"You’re quite something!"Fu Huan took a moment to calm his turbulent emotions. Earlier, he had forcibly attempted to help Fu Yuanshan suppress the alien True Qi within him, but to no avail. The True Qi backlash from Fu Yuanshan’s bursting at the seams also inflicted slight injuries on him. If he didn’t adjust in time, it would cause significant trouble in the future. It was only now that Fu Huan had managed to resolve it. He raised his head to look at Yan Chuan, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"Fu Huan!"

"You directed your subordinates to attack me without reason. I reserve the right to hold you accountable!"

Yan Chuan’s expression was unpleasant.

This Fu Huan acted without any evidence, clearly bullying him because he had just become Innate, and thinking he had no backing. It was simply taking advantage of the Fu Family’s vast influence.

Yan Chuan killed without regret.

Even against this Fu Huan, if presented with a chance in the future, Yan Chuan wouldn’t hesitate to kill him.

As for now—

"Such arrogance!"

"Hold me accountable?"

"Want to kill me?"

"I’m not Fu Yuanshan!"

"You went all out and caught an Innate Sixth Layer off guard; now, how much strength do you have left? How much damage have you sustained? Do you still have the power to fight?"

Fu Huan pressed forward relentlessly, his killing intent growing stronger.

Qian Guqin stepped forward: "Fu Huan God General, Yan God General was personally appointed by Elder Zhou Shun as a Tribute of Chunjiang Courtyard, Jiujiang Institute, and Lishan Sect. What are your intentions?"

"Brave!"

"Mongrels!"

Fu Huan glanced at Qian Guqin and sneered, "Hiding behind Zhou Shun, do you think I won’t kill you?"

His voice turned icy, "If you dare to say another word, I will kill you!"

Fu Huan’s gaze swept over Qian Guqin, then An Lu and Sa Mo, his eyes chilling to the extreme.

If these three dared to provoke him further, he would indeed dare to kill.

In this battle, the Fu Family had lost a Second Rank God General, so would killing three First Ranks from the Lishan Sect be out of the question?

"You!"

Qian Guqin, An Lu, and Sa Mo stiffened, their faces flushed, but they didn’t dare to confront. If Fu Huan truly lost it and killed them, even if Zhou Shun retaliated afterward, it would be too late.

Life is precious!

"Senior Fu Huan!"

"There must be some misunderstanding here!"

Shangguan Ji was not afraid. He was afraid of Yan Chuan, Chen Ze—such loners with unknown origins who became Innate Divine Generals—but not so much of someone like Fu Huan who had family and background.

Moreover—

"I have a close relationship with Yan God General and Fu Zhe, the grandson of Lingyang Mountain God and Fu Jiushi, so there must be some misunderstanding!" Shangguan Ji couldn’t understand why Fu Huan targeted Yan Chuan.

This doesn’t make sense!

They were even collaborating with Fu Zhe!

Could it be that Fu Zhe’s private dealings with Nanyue Lake were exposed, leading to family law punishment, thereby implicating Yan Chuan?

This doesn’t add up either!

How could Fu Yuanshan start with such hostile intent!

This is all wrong!

What a mess!

Shangguan Ji’s head hurt.

"Shangguan Ji."

Fu Huan had an excellent memory; he recognized almost half of the Innate Divine Generals in Hunxi Royal City and even the Six Great Royal Cities. He was aware of the well-known figures in the ’Four Families and Three Sects’ within Hunxi Territory, including Elder Zhou Shun’s chief disciple, Shangguan Ji.

Unlike Qian Guqin, An Lu, and Sa Mo, Shangguan Ji might not be Innate, but as Zhou Shun’s primary disciple, his stance was significantly more prominent.

"The Tribute appointed by Zhou Shun killed a Second Rank God General of my Fu Family, and if I were to fight, capture, or kill him, it would be justified. As for you, I won’t haggle with the younger generation. In consideration of your master, I can spare you. But kid, if you say another word, then him, him, and him—all will die!"

Fu Huan pointed at Qian Guqin, An Lu, and Sa Mo, using their lives to pressure Shangguan Ji not to intervene.

Fu Huan had no choice.

The Tribute positioned by Zhou Shun killed his Fu Family’s Second Rank God General. If he killed Yan Chuan, Qian Guqin, An Lu, and Sa Mo, it might still seem reasonable—a Second Rank God General’s life was worth more than four First Rank God Generals.

But Shangguan Ji was different.

He was not Innate.

If Fu Huan really acted, causing Shangguan Ji either harm or death, Zhou Shun would surely retaliate. Whether Fu Huan could fend off Zhou Shun or not, if Zhou Shun also retaliated using his offspring, disciples, or other relatives, could Fu Huan withstand it?

Causing pain to loved ones and delight to enemies!

Unnecessary!

"Everyone, clear the way!"

"I only want Yan Chuan’s life!"

Fu Huan advanced boldly, his presence pressing Shangguan Ji away. As a Third-Rank Divine General, his might sent Shangguan Ji flying dozens of spirals, making it impossible to block.

"Please hold on."

"I can handle this."

Yan Chuan spoke, giving Shangguan Ji, Qian Guqin, An Lu, Sa Mo, and others a way out. Then, he looked straight at Fu Huan. As he breathed, the ’Divine Light True Seed’ from ’Full Three Return One’ had fully consolidated from its embryonic form, returning to thirteen seeds.

And five ’Nine Yang True Seeds’.

Yan Chuan!

Capable of battle!

However, just as the battle was about to erupt—

"Fu Huan!"

"Do not act recklessly in Nanxiong City!"

A thunderous shout came from the sky as they saw a Divine General, clad in armor, walking through the air, landing right between Yan Chuan and Fu Huan.

This person was—

...

"Kuang He!"

Finally arrived.

Fu Huan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Despite having previously appeared so overbearing, poised to kill Yan Chuan, he honestly hadn’t intended to really fight.

Life and death struggles!

Not a game!

Though he guessed that Yan Chuan’s explosive power wouldn’t last, and his body might already be damaged, who could be 100% certain?

Yan Chuan had instantly killed Fu Yuanshan, who was Innate Sixth Layer, with a single outburst. Even if there was an element of carelessness on Fu Yuanshan’s part, Yan Chuan’s own power couldn’t be ignored.

At least, Fu Huan couldn’t be sure that even with Fu Yuanshan’s misconduct, it would be so straightforward and decisive to kill him.

Yan Chuan!

Not weak!

Facing such a formidable opponent with unknown depth, he certainly preferred not to fight if possible!

But avoiding a fight wasn’t an option either!

Having lost a Second Rank God General under his command, how could he go on in the Fu Family if he didn’t make any show of strength?

So, a dilemma!

But Fu Huan was shrewd; he deliberately wasted time with Shangguan Ji and others, finally stalling until the arrival of—

...

"Great General of Nanxiong City!"

"Third-Rank Divine General!"

"Innate twelfth layer!"

"One of the Hunxi Three Sects, Lishan Sect, Nine Courtyards, Xuanqi Institute’s first-level Housekeeper Elder stationed at Nanxiong City—"

"Kuang He!"

Yan Chuan also recognized the newcomer.

This was one of the top ten Innate Divine Generals of Nanxiong City, from Lishan Sect’s Xuanqi Institute, holding authority over Nanxiong City’s General Mansion. With deep backing and high position, he co-managed the military and political power of the city with City Lord Fu Xixiang.

"General Kuang!"

Yan Chuan hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

Kuang He surveyed the scene, particularly noticing the half-bloody skeleton left behind after a burst of flesh and blood, causing the Nanxiong City Great General’s heart to tremble, "Yan God General, this is—"

Kuang He pointed at the half-skeleton and asked Yan Chuan.

Yan Chuan shook his head, "Yan was giving the Hurricane Guard a martial arts lecture when this person suddenly attacked, starting with a killing move. In shock, I unleashed a ’Life and Death’ burst and couldn’t restrain myself. Afterward, only then did Fu Huan appear, claiming this person was the Fu Family’s God General Fu Yuanshan, demanding my life, cough—"

Just as Yan Chuan was reporting to Kuang He, he suddenly remembered he’d just used ’Life and Death’ efforts. He quickly activated ’Seven Injuries Fist’—

The seven strengths conflicted internally.

First injuring oneself, then injuring oneself again!

Cough!

Yan Chuan forced out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly paling.

This was the appearance of true Yuan depletion after a ’Life and Death’ outburst.

"So, it was indeed feigned strength!"

Fu Huan was convinced; he regretted inwardly. If he had attacked head-on earlier, he might have already captured or killed Yan Chuan.

As for now, it could only be argued!

"Kuang He!"

"Kongsang Water God Fu Manduo encountered misfortune at Nanyue Lake. I’m here to investigate. This person harbors evil intentions and suddenly killed, most likely not innocent."

"Nanyue Lake is within the territory of Nanxiong City. One Second Rank God General died here, and now there are two."

Fu Huan looked at Fu Yuanshan’s skeleton, his face cold, "Kuang He! As Nanxiong City’s Great General, the deaths of two Second Rank God Generals are not unrelated to you!"

"Mad dog!"

"Biting indiscriminately!"

Kuang He laughed.
