Midway Ambush
As the winning streak continued, a regret arose in Quan Yi's heart.
Among the fifteen Soul Fight, there were many powerful Spirit Master, some young and talented, others older but experienced.
However, none of them could get Quan Yi to exert his full strength, and they could no longer even serve as a training tool for him.
Today, when he saw Huo Wu Soul Fight, he was actually a little envious.
He envied Huo Wu for being able to go all out against her opponents.
In the Great Soul Arena, he could only fight against opponents of the same level. Although it was a bit of a regret, he could only bury it deep in his heart.
Just as the sun was overhead, Su Ling'er and Quan Yi walked out of the Great Soul Arena.
"Xiao Yi, you go home alone today. I have things to do." When they reached the place where the carriage was parked, Su Ling'er suddenly suggested that Quan Yi go home alone.
"What's wrong?" Quan Yi, puzzled.
"We're short of medicine at home, so I'm going to buy some. I should be back before dinner," Su Ling'er explained.
When Quan Yi heard that Su Ling'er was going to buy medicine, he immediately understood.
"Okay, take care on the road. I'll be going now."
After saying that, Quan Yi got into the carriage and left.
The medicine Su Ling'er mentioned actually referred to Gunpowder.
The production of Gunpowder was of paramount importance to the Quan Family.
Not only were the locations kept strictly secret, but the Gunpowder was usually transported by the mother alone.
The Research Institute's demand for Gunpowder is gradually increasing, so Su Ling'er has to go and transport some back every now and then.
Although it's troublesome, it's for the sake of secrecy.
"Let's go."
Quan Yi left the Great Soul Arena in a carriage.
The carriage slowly drove away, and Su Ling'er waited until Quan Yi was out of sight before walking away alone.
On the way back, Quan Yi leisurely looked at the city scenery.
This is Quan Yi can relax.
The carriage gradually moved away from the bustling streets and towards the outskirts, where the population became increasingly sparse.
Once outside the city center, the driver gave the reins a sharp jerk, propelling the carriage forward at an accelerated pace.
The carriage gradually picked up speed, and Quan Yi reached out to feel the wind brushing against his fingers.
"Hiss~!"
A horse suddenly let out a piercing scream.
The carriage Quan Yi was sitting also shook violently, as if it had hit something. Then, in a moment, the entire carriage began to lift into the air, and at that moment Quan Yi felt a tremendous sense of weightlessness.
The horse fell over for no apparent reason.
The carriage following behind the horse crashed directly into it, and due to inertia, the entire carriage suddenly flipped forward.
"Bang!"
The carriage was lifted into the air, but because it was connected to the horse, it flipped over in mid-air and fell directly to the ground.
Fortunately, the carriage was quite sturdy, and it was not broken.
However, while the carriage itself wasn't wrecked, the fate of the people inside is uncertain.
This is a remote road with few people around, so even if someone hears such a loud noise, no one will come to check.
However, at that moment, a black figure appeared in front of the overturned carriage.
Judging from his appearance, he should be a man. He is tall and thin, and his entire body is black, with no skin showing. He even wears a hood and mask on his head, leaving only his eyes to observe the outside world.
But in the only eye that was visible, there was only cold-blooded Killing Intent.
The Masked Man clearly had ill intentions. He quickly ran into the carriage, extending a curved Claw Blade from his right hand.
The curved blade is incredibly sharp, and the Claw Blade is longer than a typical Claw Blade.
The man was moving very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was already close to the carriage.
Four Soul Ring appeared on his body: white, yellow, purple, and purple.
This shows that he is a Spirit Master at the Soul Ancestor level.
Just as he was about to approach the carriage, his brightest purple Soul Ring suddenly flashed.
At the same time, his blade was surrounded by swirling Azure Wind and surging air currents.
He quickly waved his arms toward the carriage.
With a swing, Giant Wind Blade shot out from the blade.
The Wind Blade was incredibly sharp, instantly cleaving the wooden carriage in two.
This was a meticulously planned murder.
From crash to attack.
The man gave Quan Yi no time to react, only thinking about killing him as quickly as possible.
However, when the carriage completely collapsed, revealing the scene inside, he found that the scene he had expected did not occur.
What he should have seen was a corpse, cut in half, lying tragically on the ground.
However, things didn't go as he expected.
Quan Yi was already wearing the Blazing Sun Gauntlets, standing perfectly intact amidst the shattered wooden planks. Even the coachman, who had no Soul Power, was unharmed and hiding behind Quan Yi.
"Although I don't know who you are, I just want to say that you've messed with the wrong person."
At this moment, Quan Yi's eyes were filled with a cold Killing Intent.
He was in a rather disheveled state, with broken pieces of wood stuck to his clothes and head.
In the instant the incident occurred, Quan Yi, with his quick reflexes and agility, grabbed the coachman, thus preventing him from being thrown off.
As he tried to get out of the carriage, he saw Giant Wind Blade flying towards him.
In a moment of desperation, Quan Yi threw the coachman behind him, summoned the Blazing Sun Gauntlets, crossed his arms, and used his Soul Power to condense steel to block the Giant Wind Blade.
"Clang."
The sharp Wind Blade could not cut through the double protection of the Gauntlet and steel. In the end, Quan Yi blocked the Wind Blade with his immense power.
After blocking the attack, Quan Yi was extremely relieved. Fortunately, his opponent only had one Wind Blade, and fortunately, his opponent was not a strength-type Spirit Master.
If he had several Wind Blade, he might not be able to stand here intact right now.
If the opponent is a strength-type Spirit Master, then his strength alone cannot stop the Soul Ancestor's Fourth Soul Skill.
Although he successfully repelled the opponent's attack, the perilous situation thoroughly enraged Quan Yi.
After the carriage shattered, the view opened up instantly. Quan Yi quickly scanned his surroundings and discovered a thin steel wire on the road.
The steel wire, which was originally difficult to detect, became clearly visible after being stained with blood.
The horse's leg was likely severed by the wire while it was running.
Quan Yi quickly assessed the situation.
The opponent is Soul Ancestor. Judging from his physique, attack methods, and the power of his Soul Skill, he should be Agility Attack System Spirit Master.
Although their purpose is unknown, it is clear that they are targeting him.
Moreover, the other party showed no mercy and went straight for Quan Yi's life, so it didn't seem like they were there to kidnap him.
Just as Quan Yi was analyzing his opponent's information and killing him, the Masked Man was also observing Quan Yi.
When the man saw that Quan Yi was unharmed, he didn't seem too surprised. In fact, his eyes began to gleam with greed.
"Looks like I didn't make a mistake," the man said in a hoarse voice.
The man gave Quan Yi no chance to catch his breath, pressed his body down, and then shot towards Quan Yi like an arrow.
His movements were unpredictable, and his steps were erratic, giving people a dazzling feeling.
He moved extremely fast, quickly closing in on Quan Yi.
