"What do you want to do to Ryuu Mufei? Didn't we make a promise not long ago? No matter what, absolutely no one is allowed to die first." Ryuseki wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and found that the bleeding had become even heavier. He breathed heavily, looked at Lin Yingbin's hand stained with his own blood, and continued, "For the sake of this promise, I can't die, and I won't let you, Ryuu Mufei, or anyone around me die."
"Oh? What about Kikka You?" Lin Yingbin suddenly brought up the name that could make Ryuseki regret it for the rest of his life, continuing to mock him. "What gives you the right to accomplish these things? Strength?"
Ryuseki fell silent. The name just mentioned left him unable to refute. He lowered his head and let the blood flow down his cheeks to drip onto the ground. Right at that moment, Lin Yingbin walked toward him slowly, and then Ryuseki spoke.
"Just the fact that everyone is someone I deeply love, they are my friends." Ryuseki's gaze suddenly turned resolute, seeming to have lost that bewildered state. "Lin Yingbin, I will definitely make you change back to your original self."
"What are you acting like right now? A saint? Altruistic?" Lin Yingbin displayed an arrogant posture that looked down on Ryuseki.
Aside, Ryuu Mufei was slowly regaining consciousness and sobering up at that moment. Witnessing the confrontation between the two, he was just planning to rejoin the battlefield when they made their moves.
Ryuseki suddenly exerted force, and at the same time Lin Yingbin swung his own fist. A large amount of airflow was wrapped around both of their arms. The two seemed to know what moves the other was going to make, looking intent on a head-on collision.
Clank... boom...!!! Their fists attacked each other. Before the fists could even collide, the clash between their airflows had already begun. The two evenly matched airflows collided and simultaneously intertwined, scattering in all directions to form a shockwave that rippled outward. Then, their fists slammed into each other.
Next, a brand-new aura burst forth from both of their entire bodies, and the ground where the two stood began to cave downward, unable to bear the intense pressure.
Lin Yingbin slanted the corner of his mouth, grabbed Ryuseki by the collar with his other hand, and then began to back away. Due to his momentum, Ryuseki also advanced along with Lin Yingbin's retreating pace.
Subsequently, Lin Yingbin used a burst of strength in his legs to stop his retreat, and also propped up Ryuseki so he would not advance. Next, he wrapped his arms with an even greater amount of airflow, and relying on this surging airflow, he actually lifted Ryuseki up. Yet Ryuseki looked completely defenseless.
Right at that moment, a huge concrete slab flew in through the air. This thick concrete slab looked to be a full two or three meters long and over a meter wide, weighing at least half a ton. It seemed to be the support column of the perimeter wall that Ryuseki had just crashed into. Such a large and heavy piece of concrete was not something an ordinary person could easily lift, let alone the fact that no one was carrying it and it was flying through the air instead.
The alert Lin Yingbin seemed to sense the anomaly. He quickly turned his head back and saw that huge object flying toward him.
However, holding Ryuseki aloft, he had no time to dodge at all, and his waist was struck by the nearly half-ton heavy object. The damage caused by this blow looked quite heavy. After being struck, Lin Yingbin gritted his teeth with difficulty, then turned his face away to look at Ryuu Mufei on the other side of the street.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Ryuu Mufei immediately extended his left hand, and then the muffled sounds of buzz... bang... were heard. Ryuseki was caught by Ryuu Mufei's psychokinesis; he neither crashed into the ground nor hit Ryuu Mufei, but was merely suspended in mid-air, supported by psychokinesis.
"It's not over yet!"
Enduring the pain in his waist, Lin Yingbin rushed over, instantly bypassing the suspended Ryuseki and charging to Ryuu Mufei's side.
"You bastard, see if I don't slaughter you!"
Lin Yingbin's airflow-wrapped fist swung fiercely toward Ryuu Mufei, and then came another muffled sound. Lin Yingbin's brute-force fist stopped four or five centimeters away from Ryuu Mufei. Lin Yingbin's attack was blocked by Ryuu Mufei's psychokinesis. However, because resisting
Lin Yingbin's attack caused Ryuu Mufei to be distracted, Ryuseki, losing the support of the psychokinesis, fell from mid-air down to the ground.
"Let me say this first, I certainly don't regard you as my friend Lin Yingbin right now!" Ryuu Mufei looked at the familiar face before him, then thrust his left palm forward fiercely. Following that, powerful psychokinesis erupted.
Lin Yingbin was struck close-range by the psychokinesis, the impact akin to a speeding car. Lin Yingbin actually attempted to resist with brute force, but he was still blown away by the powerful psychokinesis.
Ryuseki also slowly crawled up. He seemed to have recovered a bit of stamina, and the wounds on his body even appeared to be healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, why was Ryuseki recovering so quickly? Could it be because of that monster inside Ryuseki's body?
Actually, that was not the case. There was a reason why Ryuu Mufei did not let Ryuseki down and instead kept him suspended in mid-air. The psychokinesis he emitted possessed a certain healing efficacy. Although it lasted for only a mere few seconds, the injuries on Ryuseki's body had also recovered by several tenths.
"Are you all right?" Ryuu Mufei stepped forward and asked.
"I'm..." He originally intended to answer that he was fine, but Ryuseki dropped onto his buttocks on the ground, shook his head, and replied, "My head hurts a bit!"
Ryuu Mufei walked to his side and pulled him up with a yank. Ryuseki smiled and said, "I'm fine, just a little headache." Standing up, Ryuseki shook his arms and continued, "That guy actually became so strong, completely different from before. I'm so envious that he could suddenly acquire such powerful strength!"
Ryuu Mufei retorted ungraciously, "Envious? You can even envy becoming like that?"
"But getting stronger is also a fact!" Ryuseki replied.
Meanwhile, Lin Yingbin swayed and slowly stood back up.
"As expected of the young master of the Psychokinetic Clan!" As he spoke, an eerie green light actually flickered in Lin Yingbin's eyes. "You two should wake up to reality as well. The accident from just a moment ago won't happen again."
With that, Lin Yingbin took off at a run. The bloody cut on his forehead caused by the earlier collision was still bleeding.
"Planning a direct charge? Unwise!"
Facing Lin Yingbin's attack, Ryuseki quickly made a reaction, extended his right hand, and swung it fiercely. Lin Yingbin dodged rapidly, and then felt himself get hit.
He had clearly avoided Ryuseki's fist punch, so why? Lin Yingbin knitted his brows, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that a stream of airflow extended from Ryuseki's elbow. It was precisely this airflow that struck Lin Yingbin's waist; Ryuseki's punch had been a feint. However, Lin Yingbin was not so easily defeated either. He saw his palm brace against the ground, and his feet kicked viciously toward Ryuseki's abdomen. The speed of the counterattack was so fast that it left Ryuseki no time to defend.
This heavy kick caused Ryuseki's abdomen to cave inward. Ryuseki's legs trembled as he gritted his teeth and endured the pain.
"You seem to have forgotten my existence!" Ryuu Mufei delivered a kick straight at Lin Yingbin, sending the off-balance Lin Yingbin flying.
Lin Yingbin rolled on the ground a few times before coming to a stop.
"I never thought the young master of the Psychokinetic Clan would actually use direct physical attacks! That hurt quite a bit."
However, the one falling backward the next instant was actually Ryuu Mufei. Ryuu Mufei felt pain transmitting from his leg. Even though he was the one who kicked Lin Yingbin away, the injured party was himself. The moment he struck him, he could already feel as if he had kicked an iron plate. Immediately afterward, that trace of pain transformed into numbness. Ryuu Mufei urgently used psychokinesis to heal himself, but Lin Yingbin on the other side began to move.
Lin Yingbin clenched his fists, gathered the body's airflow into his hands, and then plunged his hands into the ground. His fingers tightly hooked into the earth and he lifted with force. "Let me show you this!"
The earth was about to roar...
