Tong Tianba's words were choked in his throat, and seeing that Fang Shuwen didn't say anything more to him and raised his hand to hit him, his already uncontrollable anger was further fueled.
Ignoring the watchful eyes of the Ten Leisurely Elder, he roared angrily:
"Good timing!"
Instead of retreating, he advanced and threw a powerful punch.
He was physically strong; in Zheng Sihai's words, he had excellent physical constitution.
He already possessed superhuman strength, and with the physical training he later developed, he resembled a humanoid behemoth.
It's only the size of a fist, almost comparable to Fang Shuwen's head.
This punch was delivered with all his might!
Even Lu Guiyan and the others could feel the oppressive force of the punch, which made them feel suffocated.
They were still far apart, and yet they were like this... How much more so would Fang Shuwen, standing right in front of Tong Tianba, be?
In the blink of an eye, Fang Shuwen's palm had already touched Tong Tianba's.
One of them is the [Great Black Heaven Divine Palm], which emphasizes overwhelming force with sheer power.
The other possessed boundless strength and immense power.
The impact produced an immediate, deafening noise.
If you could only hear their voices but not see them, you might even suspect that they were two ferocious beasts clashing together.
A strong gust of wind suddenly spread out from the point where the two men's fists and palms collided.
Ten Leisurely Elder, who was closest, couldn't help but retreat one after another.
He wondered if he could have faced Tong Tianba head-on with his internal strength when he was young, but now he was old, and the incident five years ago had made him much weaker than before.
Now, he can't even withstand the aftershocks of two youngsters clashing head-on, and can only retreat to deflect the force.
A sense of melancholy, like that of a hero past his prime, welled up within me.
Lu Guiyan and the others were still quite far away when they saw the flickering flames roaring in the strong wind. The group quickly moved aside, and the situation was alright.
They peered up through the gaps in the strong wind, wanting to see the outcome of this move.
They had expected a stalemate... but when they looked up, they were all speechless.
Their fists and palms collided completely, but Fang Shuwen was unharmed, while Tong Tianba's fist made a cracking sound as if bones were breaking.
The sound traveled upwards from the fist, and in the blink of an eye, it had pierced through the entire arm.
Bang!!
A wisp of blood mist shot out from Tong Tianba's shoulder. He let out a muffled groan and finally couldn't hold on any longer.
He was knocked backward, his thick arm drooping down like a noodle.
My heart was filled with terror and a desire to die.
His protective skills were completely ineffective against Fang Shuwen.
The powerful force vanished without a trace the instant it made contact with Fang Shuwen's palm.
Only Fang Shuwen's strength, unstoppable and relentless, surged forward... and he was utterly powerless to resist!
Who exactly is this person in front of me?
How could someone so young possess such skills, even if they started practicing martial arts in the womb?
With just this one move, Tong Tianba lost his spirit and no longer had any desire to fight Fang Shuwen. He began to consider retreating.
But at this moment, how could he possibly back down?
Fang Shuwen landed a palm strike, and then suddenly stepped forward again. However, this time his attack was no longer the [Great Black Heaven Divine Palm]. With a flick of his five fingers, he unleashed the [Plum Blossom Loose Hands]!
He reached out and seized the opportunity, aiming straight for Tong Tianba's shoulder.
Seeing Fang Shuwen's attack, Tong Tianba knew what he intended to do. He immediately roared and swung his remaining arm to deflect Fang Shuwen's attack.
He, the East Hall the Eastern Hall of the Fierce Tiger Gang, is capable of defeat and death; how could he allow himself to be captured alive by a mere brat?
Unexpectedly, his failure to act would have been one thing, but his action gave Fang Shuwen an opportunity.
With a flick of her fingers, she gripped his wrist perfectly.
With a sudden turn of the [Beiming Shengong], Tong Tianba's originally powerful strength was instantly drained away.
Without any power to resist, Fang Shuwen twisted him behind his back, and with two cracking sounds, Fang Shuwen casually dislocated his joints.
Immediately following with a kick forward:
Kneel down!
A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!
Tong Tianba roared angrily, his True Qi circulated again, but it did not reach his legs. Instead, it flowed through the meridians in his wrists into Fang Shuwen's body, rendering his attack completely ineffective. When Fang Shuwen's foot landed, he could only kneel on the ground with a thud, despite his extreme reluctance.
Fang Shuwen grabbed the back of his neck and reached down, using his [Plum Blossom Loose Hands] to grip a section of his spine. His five fingers, like hooks, penetrated deep into the flesh, and with a crack, a piece of his spine was pulled out. Then, Fang Shuwen lifted him up completely.
Tong Tianba's enormous size looked somewhat disproportionate as he was carried by Fang Shuwen.
But in Fang Shuwen's hands, he had absolutely no power to resist. He was easily manipulated and thrown in front of Lu Guiyan, who even remarked:
"That kid's got some strength."
Upon hearing this, Tong Tianba nearly vomited blood.
He was born with superhuman strength, possessing unparalleled physical prowess. Countless heroes and masters have perished under his iron fists.
How did it become "very strong" in Fang Shuwen's mouth?
Lu Guiyan and the others were already dumbfounded. Even when Fang Shuwen threw the East Hall the Fierce Tiger Gang in front of them, they still couldn't react.
After realizing what had happened, Lu Guiyan gasped sharply.
In fact, she had considered the Fang Shuwen would win.
However, that was based on the fact that the Lu'an Escort Agency worked together with one heart and one mind, and with the help of the Ten Leisurely Elders Fang Shuwen, and with the unfathomable Tong Tianba, it would no longer be a pipe dream to defeat Tong Tianba, the head of the East Hall.
But the truth is...
From beginning to end, the people from Lu'an Escort Agency, including himself, had absolutely no chance to make a move.
Tong Tianba, one of the four hall masters of the Fierce Tiger Gang, couldn't even withstand a single move from Fang Shuwen!
With just one palm strike, he had already crippled one of his hands.
With a casual reach and grab, he brought this incredibly powerful expert right in front of him.
Lu Guiyan found that move quite familiar...
The [Plum Blossom Loose Hands] of the Four Seas Martial Hall
She had seen Mo Beidou use it before, and more than once.
However, the same martial art used by Fang Shuwen and Mo Beidou is completely different.
Lu Guiyan subconsciously swallowed, then suddenly realized that she had probably been hit on the head by an immense fortune.
With Fang Shuwen around, why worry about failing to complete this escort mission?
Thinking of this, Lu Guiyan's gaze also fell on Tong Tianba in front of her.
She spoke in a deep voice:
"Why did your Fierce Tiger Gang kill these two people?"
Upon hearing this, Tong Tianba raised his eyes, his gaze filled with mockery, before a smirk appeared on his lips:
"Hahaha..."
Snap!
Before he could finish speaking, a slap landed on his head, and the laughter stopped abruptly...
Fang Shuwen's voice sounded somewhat impatient:
"Shut up like that. I'm asking you a question, so speak properly."
