214: Fighting an eighth-tier opponent! A grand gift from the Broken Water Sect!

The experts of the Zaoli Family swarmed forward all at once!

However, their cultivation levels weren't high; there were only two Seventh-Rank experts left, as the others had already been slaughtered by Fang Bai!

To him, the remaining ones were nothing more than insignificant small fry!

Without wasting words, Fang Bai took a step forward, and his Domain instantly opened!

Ganging up on him? Not a chance!

A group of shadow clones lunged into the crowd like hungry wolves, beginning a ruthless massacre!

Seeing this scene, the members of the Zaoli Family were instantly filled with despair!

How were they supposed to fight this?

"Hmph!"

A cold snort rang out, followed by the strike of a powerful force!

Fang Bai's shadow clones were instantly shattered by this power!

Sato Ryugan had made his move!

Fang Bai narrowed his eyes, and instead of retreating, he advanced. Wrapped in lightning, he charged toward Sato Ryugan with the momentum of a thunderbolt!

He ignored everyone else; only Sato Ryugan was worthy of being his opponent!

Since his battle with the White Fox, Fang Bai hadn't encountered a decent opponent. Now, Sato Ryugan could serve as his whetstone!

"A Seventh-Rank daring to strike an Eighth-Rank—your courage is commendable!"

Sato Ryugan's gaze was cold, as if he were looking at a jumping ant!

Between the Seventh-Rank and the Eighth-Rank, there lay an impassable chasm!

This was the reason he didn't take Fang Bai seriously!

In the face of absolute strength, what kind of waves could the opponent possibly stir up?

Sato Ryugan simply raised his hand lightly. In an instant, a powerful pillar of fire erupted from the ground, piercing toward Fang Bai!

The opponent's attack was too sudden. By the time Fang Bai reacted, it was already too late to dodge, but he didn't try to. Instead, he chose to meet it head-on!

Boom!

The explosion subsided, with lightning and flames raging wildly!

The surrounding low-rank martial artists were blown away one after another by the powerful shockwave!

At that moment, Sato Ryugan suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise, then turned and grabbed the air!

Poof!

He caught a fist in his grip!

His own shadow was actually attacking him!

"Lightning Element... Dark Element... So you're a Dual-Element martial artist."

A trace of killing intent surfaced in Sato Ryugan's eyes!

A monster of this level must absolutely not be allowed to return to the Dragon Country!

"Die!"

A pressure like that of a prehistoric beast erupted from his body. Terrifying energy pressed down entirely on the shadow, causing the latter to instantly dissipate!

Sato Ryugan took a step forward, his body already reaching the thick smoke of the explosion!

His aura shook the smoke away, revealing Fang Bai's figure. When the latter realized the opponent had appeared, he could only instinctively throw a punch!

Boom!

In the next second, Fang Bai's body was sent flying backward!

However, to everyone's surprise, Sato Ryugan actually retreated more than a dozen steps!

Seeing this scene, the pupils of the onlookers dilated in shock!

A Seventh-Rank repelling an Eighth-Rank? How was that possible?!

Sato Ryugan looked at his arm, his brow furrowing.

His arm had split open in several places, and blood soaked his sleeve.

He was injured!

He had actually been injured!

"Something's not right..."

Sato Ryugan was a monstrous talent himself to have reached the Eighth-Rank. His eyes flickered as he stared at Fang Bai not far away: "You definitely have a secret on you!"

Power capable of injuring an Eighth-Rank was certainly no ordinary thing!

Greed immediately filled Sato Ryugan's gaze.

After several rounds, Fang Bai hadn't managed to gain any advantage, and his breathing was erratic. If he hadn't weakened most of the opponent's power, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand a single blow.

Damage Reflection and Weakening—these had always been Fang Bai's trump cards.

But using them to fight an Eighth-Rank still seemed a bit forced!

Sato Ryugan began walking toward Fang Bai once again.

Fang Bai took a deep breath, his gaze becoming resolute. Battle intent surfaced in his eyes as he proactively charged at his opponent!

The two engaged in a fierce battle. Throughout the fight, Fang Bai remained at a disadvantage, yet he was like an unkillable cockroach, charging back at the opponent every time he was repelled!

On the other hand, Sato Ryugan had initially suppressed Fang Bai with ease, but as the battle progressed, his injuries actually showed signs of worsening!

Seeing this, the members of the Zaoli Family felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them.

Could it be that even the Head of the Family couldn't kill the opponent?

Was this person too much of a monster?

In the shadows, the White-Robed Middle-aged Man stared fixedly at Fang Bai and said, "I take back what I said before. This youth must be left here forever!"

Clearly, he had already sensed a threat from Fang Bai!

If a monster like this grew up, he would become a second Su Yunsheng in the future!

The Military-Uniformed Middle-aged Man also showed killing intent: "It's time to act!"

Just as the two were about to intervene, they suddenly turned their heads sharply!

In the distance, violent explosions rang out from various directions across District Thirty-Six!

"How can this be?!"

The White-Robed Middle-aged Man's pupils shrank: "That's the direction of the Organization's branch!"

"Damn it! It's those bastards from the Duan Shui Sect!"

The two could no longer worry about Fang Bai and rushed toward the sound of the explosions!

They hadn't expected the people from the Duan Shui Sect to strike during this opening!

After the two super experts from The Authorities left, only Miyamoto Takeo, another Eighth-Rank, remained in the shadows.

He had been watching the two in combat and suddenly felt somewhat fortunate.

Luckily, he wasn't the one who had confronted Fang Bai first, or he would have really suffered a loss!

The sound of explosions in the city also caught the attention of the two combatants.

Sato Ryugan looked at Fang Bai: "Was this your doing?"

Fang Bai looked completely bewildered: "What are you talking about? Again!"

He was now completely caught up in the heat of the fight, not fearing the injuries the opponent inflicted on him at all—it was a complete exchange of blood for blood!

To be able to cause such an impact on an Eighth-Rank Expert, Fang Bai had already done exceptionally well!

Sato Ryugan also realized that he couldn't kill Fang Bai in a short time, and even if he did, he would pay the price of being heavily wounded.

However, it was impossible for him to let Fang Bai go!

With this thought, Sato Ryugan's attacks became increasingly fierce!

...After the White-Robed Middle-aged Man and the Military-Uniformed Middle-aged Man returned to the Organization Building, their faces were instantly filled with fury!

Their official headquarters had been reduced to a pile of rubble, and atop the ruins sat a figure elegantly.

He wore a voluminous black and red robe and a mask on his face, making it impossible to tell if he was male or female.

"Duan Shui Sect! Ghost Face!"

The White-Robed Middle-aged Man's gaze fell upon the Masked Man, a rare look of solemnity appearing on his face.

"We meet again, old friend. I've come this time to give you a grand gift."

Ghost Face's voice was slightly hoarse, as if it were being deliberately suppressed.

The White-Robed Middle-aged Man glanced at the ruins and said coldly, "If blowing up the Organization Building counts, then it is indeed a grand gift!"

He emphasized the words 'grand gift' heavily!

Ghost Face gave a low chuckle and said, "No, no, no, this is just an appetizer. The real grand gift—here, look up at the sky."

He pointed his hand toward the horizon.

The White-Robed Middle-aged Man and the Military-Uniformed Middle-aged Man were stunned for a moment, then instinctively looked up. Suddenly, their pupils contracted sharply.

"What?!"
