When Lei Dong saw Lei Qi emerge with a delicate little girl, he asked bluntly, "Lei Qi, are you messing with me? This little girl probably can't even take one punch from me, can she?"
"What did you say?!" Before Lei Qi could say anything, Zi Yan was already displeased.
Within the Thunder Realm, aside from Lei Qi, whom she could not beat, anyone from the younger generation she had encountered while playing outside had been pinned down and beaten by her.
And now, some guy had suddenly appeared and actually dared to provoke her like this?
"Zi Yan, don't beat him too badly," Lei Qi reminded her.
"Don't worry. I know my limits." With that, Zi Yan charged out.
Lei Qi was speechless!
This little girl had limits my ass. And had she gotten too full of herself? She actually dared to call herself this young master's grandaunt in front of him?
Lei Dong had assumed she was just a little girl, but the instant Zi Yan leaped out from Lei Qi's side, he was stunned!
"A five-star Dou Emperor?!"
Her cultivation was actually a full star higher than his!?
Had this little girl started cultivating while still in her mother's womb!?
While he was still baffled, Zi Yan had already rushed toward him.
Watching Zi Yan throw a punch at him, Lei Dong immediately clenched his fist and struck back!
Bang!
The instant their fists collided, Lei Dong felt an incomparably terrifying force slam into him. The next moment, he was flung straight out the door.
Zi Yan took a step and immediately chased after him.
Seeing this, Lei Qi spread his Dou Qi wings and floated into the air.
When Zi Yan threw another punch, Lei Dong chose to dodge. Clearly, that previous punch had thoroughly shocked him, forcing him to take the little girl before him seriously.
Whoosh!
Boom!
Lei Dong sent a bolt of lightning crashing down, but Zi Yan simply relied on her tiny fist. With the force of one punch breaking through all techniques, she shattered Lei Dong's attack with a single blow.
"Hmph, brat, stand still and let this grandaunt beat you up, or you'll regret it!" After blocking Lei Dong's attack, Zi Yan launched herself forward again.
Lei Dong was secretly shocked. What exactly was this thing?!
His high-level Xuan-class Dou Skill had actually been smashed apart with a single punch. And judging by her appearance, she had not even unleashed her full strength yet, had she?
At once, Lei Dong quickly formed a hand seal.
Ten Thousand Thunder Attraction!
This was a secret art of the Thunder Clan that could temporarily raise one's strength. Of course, after the coming-of-age ceremony, it would become even more powerful when used in conjunction with inscriptions.
As the secret art was activated, Lei Dong's strength began to rise in an instant.
Very quickly, he rose from a four-star Dou Emperor to a six-star Dou Emperor.
Lightning power covered his entire body as Lei Dong once again chose to clash head-on with Zi Yan. He might not match her in brute strength, but he refused to believe she could withstand the numbing power of lightning!
Both their attacks carried tremendous force. As the howling gusts swept through the area, several nearby trees began to bend!
Lei Qi was somewhat speechless. Were they planning to clear out his entire yard!?
Boom!!!
The instant the large and small fists collided, the surrounding space rippled violently, and even fine cracks appeared!
Though they vanished in an instant, this collision was enough to prove that both of them were exceptionally powerful among Dou Emperors. Even fighting opponents one or two stars above them would not be a problem.
Neither gained the upper hand in this clash. They each staggered back several steps before coming to a stop.
Crack!
Crack!
The moment the two separated, cracks spread across the ground. The powerful shockwaves snapped every nearby tree, and even the walls of the outer courtyard showed signs of fracturing.
"Not bad, brat. You've got some skill. No wonder you're so arrogant." Zi Yan shook her numb little hand and looked at Lei Dong with some surprise.
Lei Dong was even more astonished!
Where had this freakishly strong little girl come from?!
She was clearly so tiny. How could she possess such immense strength?
"Zi Yan's true form is a Void Ancient Dragon. She only looks so small because she accidentally consumed a Transformation Herb," Lei Qi explained.
"No wonder her physical strength is so formidable." Only then did Lei Dong understand.
Immediately afterward, a long spear appeared in his hand. Looking at Zi Yan, he said, "Little girl, I'm getting serious now!"
Lei Dong had always judged people by their strength.
If they were not strong enough, he could not be bothered to acknowledge them. But if they were strong enough, they could earn his recognition.
"Hmph, as if I'm afraid of you. This grandaunt hasn't gotten serious either," Zi Yan immediately retorted.
The two clashed once more. Two violet streaks of light, one deep purple and one light purple, quickly shot from the ground into the sky!
Boom!!
Rumble!!
Zi Yan and Lei Dong's battle quickly drew Cai Lin, the Little Fairy Doctor, Qing Lin, and Cao Ying out from the courtyard.
"Eh? Husband, who is Zi Yan sparring with?" Cai Lin asked in confusion.
"One of my clansmen, around my age," Lei Qi replied.
"He can actually clash head-on with Zi Yan!" Cao Ying said in surprise.
As the alchemist who fed Zi Yan every day, she had an extremely clear understanding of Zi Yan's physical strength.
Aside from Lei Dong, only Cai Lin, who was also a magical beast, could compare somewhat. Yet this Lei Dong could actually clash head-on with her as well!
"Yes, that kid has improved quite a bit over the years." Lei Qi nodded.
Lei Dong had indeed grown tremendously during his years in the clan grounds, especially in his ability to take a beating.
Whether someone was strong or not mainly depended on whether they could take a beating.
Clearly, Lei Dong was one of those who could.
Bang bang bang!!!
Bang bang bang!!!
Before they knew it, the two had exchanged nearly thirty rounds.
Yet at the moment, it was still impossible to tell who was stronger.
Boom!
Although Lei Dong had also mastered powerful Earth-class Dou Skills, the power of the Earth-class Dou Skills he unleashed was still far inferior to Lei Qi's.
Zi Yan, meanwhile, had been nourished by so many medicinal pills and heavenly treasures. Coupled with her pure Dragon Emperor bloodline, she naturally would not be defeated so easily.
The two fought from morning until dusk. By then, they had almost exhausted their Dou Skills. It was time to decide the victor with a single move.
Yellow Dragon Rushing Fist!
Ever since learning that she was a Void Ancient Dragon, Zi Yan had given names to the Dou Skills she had comprehended.
Palm Lightning!
Lei Dong also unleashed the strongest trump-card Dou Skill he currently possessed.
Soon, golden dragons coiled through the sky and formed into a fist. Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the enormous fist descended from above!
Lei Dong remained calm as a massive lightning palmprint shot skyward!
The instant the two massive energies collided, the giant fist was shattered within the lightning!
But.
Just as Lei Dong thought he had won, the space before him suddenly rippled. The next moment, Zi Yan appeared right in front of him!
Bang!!!
