88: Shadow Thunder Emperor
Following that deafening thunder and explosion, the entire convoy seemed to be violently shaken by an invisible force, the vehicles lost control one after another, spinning and colliding on the wet road surface, the scene was chaotic.
Smoke and firelight intertwined, and the rain also seemed to be frightened by this sudden change, pouring down more fiercely.
"Quick! Protect Hua-ye!" The Huang Family guards in the convoy shouted loudly in the chaos, trying to stabilize the situation, but the surrounding panic and chaos were like a tide, difficult to resist.
In the sky, Yang Shuo, wearing a black tight-fitting suit and a ferocious mask, appeared in the thunder.
"Thunder Emperor?"
Someone noticed the figure in the sky, their faces showing fear, and at the same time, they all moved closer to the vehicle where Huang Zhonghua was.
Flying in the air, that was at least a Martial General Realm expert, and with their numbers, they were simply not his opponent.
"Hua-ye, Hua-ye..."
Everyone shouted anxiously, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Yang Shuo.
"A mere Shadow, dares to rob my Chang'an Huang Family merchant convoy?"
Suddenly, with an angry roar, Huang Zhonghua's figure scrambled out of the vehicle's wreckage in a sorry state, his body charred and his clothes tattered, and he even held a charred corpse in his hand.
"You Shadows are seeking death!"
Huang Zhonghua looked at the charred corpse in his hand, the killing intent in his heart had climbed to the extreme, and in the next moment, a majestic power suddenly erupted, and his entire person shot towards Yang Shuo like an arrow from a bow.
"Heh heh, old man, your tone isn't small, be careful you don't bite your tongue!"
Electric arcs seemed to flash in Yang Shuo's eyes, and the moment Huang Zhonghua attacked, he condensed a ball of thunder in his right hand and directly threw it towards the opponent!
"Hmph, just a petty trick!"
Huang Zhonghua snorted disdainfully when he saw this, he directly took out a long saber and suddenly swung it out, the sharp spiritual energy seemed to want to split it in two.
But the moment it made contact, the thunder ball instantly exploded, and countless thunder snakes rampaged.
Huang Zhonghua was submerged by the thunder, and even the Huang Family members below who hadn't had time to leave were directly annihilated within it.
A Martial General Realm attack was not something they could withstand, Yang Shuo stared closely at the continuous thunder, he knew that Huang Zhonghua, a Martial General Realm Third Level, would not die so easily!
As expected, as the thunder light gradually dissipated, Huang Zhonghua's figure reappeared, his body was entangled with lightning, his clothes were even more shattered, but his eyes were unusually bright, flickering with chilling killing intent and anger.
His aura not only did not weaken, but became even more violent, clearly preparing to use all his strength.
"What a Shadow Killer, I didn't expect such a small force to have a figure like you!"
Huang Zhonghua's voice was low and powerful, every word seemed to carry the weight of a thousand jun, making the surrounding air tremble slightly.
He tightly gripped his long saber, the tip pointing directly at Yang Shuo, a faint golden spiritual energy surrounded his body, and a strange power gradually began to condense.
Yang Shuo smiled slightly when he saw this, "As expected of an old man who has lived for so many years, your life is really tough.
But you have offended someone you shouldn't have, let alone you, even your Huang Family won't be able to last much longer."
Huang Zhonghua frowned upon hearing this, he had heard a little about the reputation of the Shadow Killers during this time, but their targets were all existences below the Martial Master, so he didn't pay attention, only considering them a small force.
But he didn't expect to encounter a Martial General Realm killer, the force capable of dispatching such a strong person was definitely not weak, combined with what the other party said, it made him think of many things.
"Could it be a competitor of my Huang Family, or..." For a moment, Huang Zhonghua's thoughts were Doctor Wan Qian, all sorts of guesses constantly surging into his mind.
However, just at this moment, a strong alarm suddenly sounded in his heart, an unprecedented sense of crisis surged like a tide straight to his head!
He subconsciously ducked his head and dodged, only to see a spear flashing with thunder light pass by his face like lightning, the sharp sound of breaking air was chilling.
Before Huang Zhonghua could even stand firm, Yang Shuo had already arrived like a ghost, wrapped in terrifying thunder power, and said coldly, "Old man, die!"
Along with a low shout, his fists struck towards Huang Zhonghua like a violent storm, the fists flashing with dazzling thunder light, as if they wanted to destroy everything.
Huang Zhonghua was greatly alarmed, facing Yang Shuo's fierce attack, he did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and quickly raised the long saber in his hand to resist with all his might.
Through the brief exchange just now, he had deeply felt Yang Shuo's powerful strength.
Especially that mysterious and unpredictable thunder power, if he didn't expend a lot of spiritual energy to resist, he might lose his combat effectiveness in an instant.
Huang Zhonghua's long saber drew a brilliant golden trajectory in the air, colliding fiercely with Yang Shuo's thunder-wrapped fists.
Immediately, a deafening roar erupted in the air, as if the heavens and earth changed color at this moment.
Golden spiritual energy and blue thunder light intertwined and wrapped around each other, forming a dazzling light curtain that enveloped the two of them, the surrounding space seemed to be distorted by this power.
"Hmph, a mere Martial General First Level, dares to act presumptuously in front of my Huang Family!"
Although Huang Zhonghua was surprised, he was not flustered, the spiritual energy in his body surged wildly, the golden long saber shone brightly, and he actually managed to forcefully block the attack of the thunder fists.
But even so, he was shaken back several steps, his face slightly changed, clearly having endured considerable pressure.
Seeing this, Yang Shuo sneered, his figure closing in again like a ghost, his speed was astonishing.
"Old fellow, you do have some skill, but today, you are destined to become another Revenant under my Thunder Emperor!"
After speaking, he spread his hands, and the thunder around his body became even more violent, as if the entire sky changed color for it, and a thunderstorm was about to descend.
And Yang Shuo, bathed in thunder, was like a god of thunder, inspiring awe and making people dare not compete with him.
Huang Zhonghua's heart sank to the bottom when he saw this, he originally thought that his strength could easily suppress the opponent, but now it seemed that was not the case.
With his strength as a Martial General Realm Third Level, he couldn't even suppress a Martial General Realm First Level, which was truly hard to imagine.
"Damn it, where did this Shadow find such a monster?" Huang Zhonghua cursed inwardly.
Those who can fight beyond their level are prodigies, such figures often possess extraordinary talent and strength.
Moreover, as the Realm increases, fighting beyond one's level becomes more and more difficult.
Within the Martial General Realm, being invincible at the same level is already a rare Genius, and being able to challenge an opponent one level higher is even rarer.
However, this person in front of him can fight two levels higher and still appear to be at ease, this kind of strength is simply too terrifying.
Thinking of this, a sense of retreat couldn't help but rise in Huang Zhonghua's heart.
"Your Excellency, we have no grievances, why don't we sit down and talk?" Huang Zhonghua said in a softened tone.
He hoped to resolve the problem through negotiation and avoid getting into a fierce battle.
After all, if he really had to fight to the death, even if he won, it would be a tragic victory.
