One Against Two

Chapter 38: One Against Two

Chen Xuan shot toward the man's hiding place with astonishing momentum.

The person who had originally intended to observe the intruder in the city center was immediately alarmed upon noticing Chen Xuan approaching.

"Teacher, what should we do?" a black-robed youth asked gravely.

Before a Dou Emperor expert, he was simply no match.

"The opponent is an Eight-star Dou Huang. I can only act myself," an aged voice sounded from within the youth's body.

Hearing this, the black-robed youth could only surrender control of his body to his teacher.

With a thunderous burst, the previously weak-auraed black-robed youth seemed to become an entirely different person.

The aura erupting from him had already reached the Dou Emperor level.

"Hmm?" Chen Xuan frowned.

He had not expected another Dou Emperor expert to be hiding here.

Purple Flame rose from his hand. With a wave, he sent it hurtling toward his target.

A powerful aura surged into the sky, and a Black-robed Man whose features could not be seen appeared before Chen Xuan.

After his strength increased, the black-robed youth showed no fear in the face of the incoming Purple Flame.

"Hmph, a mere beast flame dares show off before me?" the black-robed youth snorted.

White Flame rose from his palm and, under his control, rushed to meet the incoming Purple Flame.

The moment White Flame appeared, Chen Xuan became wary.

He discovered that his opponent's White Flame was immensely powerful, even more terrifying than his Purple Flame.

White Flame collided with Purple Flame.

Under Chen Xuan's astonished gaze, Purple Flame was effortlessly shattered by White Flame.

"Is White Flame really this powerful?" Chen Xuan felt a chill in his heart.

He found that the aura his opponent emitted was clearly a notch weaker than his own, yet with White Flame, his attack power rose by an entire level.

Moreover, White Flame possessed an overwhelming advantage over Purple Flame.

"Tsk, tsk. The White Flame on you is quite good. I'll take it," Chen Xuan said greedily, staring at the White Flame in the black-robed youth's hand.

Having encountered a flame even stronger than beast fire, how could Chen Xuan let it go so easily?

As long as he devoured White Flame, his combat strength would rise tremendously.

With his current Eight-star Dou Huang strength, even if his opponent possessed the formidable White Flame, he could still handle him.

"That depends on whether you have the skill," the black-robed youth said coldly.

Chen Xuan grinned as Dou Qi surged through his body, his gaze locking onto his target.

He charged at the black-robed youth, Purple Flame sweeping toward him like a blanket covering the heavens.

The air was filled with Purple Flame as the currents churned.

Facing Chen Xuan's attack, the black-robed youth did not yield in the slightest, and White Flame rose in his hand once more.

White Flame stood before him, meeting Chen Xuan's attack.

The two flames clashed again. Without any suspense, Purple Flame was shattered.

At the very moment Purple Flame dissipated, Green Flame suddenly emerged from Chen Xuan's left hand.

Green Flame flashed through the sky and struck at the black-robed youth.

"Another beast flame?" Surprise appeared in the black-robed youth's eyes.

He had not expected Chen Xuan to control two types of beast flame.

Moreover, he noticed that the Green Flame contained potent poison. If it touched him, it certainly would not feel pleasant.

Not daring to be careless, the black-robed youth immediately intensified the White Flame in his hand.

Green Flame met White Flame, instantly generating a shocking heatwave as violent power ravaged the surroundings.

When Green Flame encountered White Flame, it fell into a brief stalemate rather than being immediately defeated.

That was because Green Flame also possessed corrosive power.

Dou Qi surged wildly through both their bodies as they maintained the strength of their respective flames.

In the end, Green Flame dissipated.

Chen Xuan instantly retreated, avoiding White Flame's attack.

He knew the power of White Flame, so he did not dare touch it carelessly.

"Looks like I've run into a tough one." Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes.

He had thought his opponent was weak, but he had not expected him to be so difficult to deal with.

Since that was the case, he would use stronger methods against him.

Elsewhere, Gu He and the others temporarily stopped fighting.

"Sect Master Yun, what should we do now?" Gu He asked.

They had come here for the Heavenly Flames. If they simply left like this, he would be deeply unwilling.

Had it been earlier, he would have left immediately.

But things were different now. Chen Xuan had to face a Dou Emperor expert and had no time to concern himself with them.

This was their opportunity.

"Queen Medusa should be in the midst of evolution right now and unable to come away. Otherwise, she would have acted long ago," Yun Yun said in a grave voice. "The Heavenly Flames should be in the city center. Seize the chance and go."

Gu He nodded, his wings shaking as he flew toward the city center.

The Snake People Race experts tried to stop him, but Yan Shi and Feng Xingzhe held them back.

"Sir, I'll assist you." Yun Yun gripped her longsword and joined the battle.

"Hehe, if you and I join forces, we can surely restrain him," the black-robed youth said with a smile.

Originally, the black-robed youth had not been confident he could defeat Chen Xuan alone. After all, his opponent was an Eight-star Dou Huang expert.

Now that Yun Yun had joined, the situation of the battle changed instantly.

"Join forces?" Chen Xuan looked at the two before him with interest, murderously cold intent in his eyes.

So what if he faced two Dou Emperor experts?

"While Queen Medusa cannot act, how about we join forces and kill him?" the black-robed youth said to Yun Yun.

If they wanted to obtain the Heavenly Flames, they had to remove the obstacle before them.

Once Queen Medusa completed her evolution, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Yun naturally understood this, so she nodded.

The black-robed youth's aura suddenly surged. He swung the black heavy ruler in his hand, unleashing immense power.

"Earth-tier Combat Skill: Flame Splitting Wave Ruler!" the black-robed youth roared in a low voice.

A muffled thunderclap-like explosion suddenly erupted, followed by a surging heatwave that swept outward and spread in all directions.

Immense power blasted toward Chen Xuan.

At the same time, Yun Yun moved as well.

She gave a delicate cry. "Splitting Wind Spiral Dance!"

As her voice fell, countless dark green wind blades, each more than thirty meters long, appeared out of thin air and intertwined with one another.

The green wind blades resembled a cylinder covered in blades, spiraling at high speed as they charged forth.

Both of them unleashed powerful combat skills to attack Chen Xuan.

Seeing the astonishing combat strength erupting from the two of them, Chen Xuan's expression turned solemn.

Green Flame and Purple Flame emerged from his left and right hands respectively. He brought his palms together and swiftly fused the two beast flames.

Seeing this, both the black-robed youth and Yun Yun revealed astonished expressions.

The two beast flames of different attributes fused in an instant, forming purple-green flames and generating a violent force.

The purple-green flames left Chen Xuan's hands and rapidly expanded, blocking before him as they met his opponents' attacks.

The powers collided, unleashing terrifying destructive force that ravaged the surroundings like a wild gale.

The explosions created by the collision of power rumbled like successive peals of thunder.

Space trembled beneath the overwhelming destructive force.

Both sides were sent flying back, staring at each other from afar.

"This guy is a madman. He can actually fuse two beast flames with different attributes," the black-robed youth said gravely. "Thankfully, they're only beast flames. If both were Heavenly Flames, how terrifying would their power be?"

"This method of attack can reach the Dou Huang Peak level in power," Yun Yun said warily.

"Though its power is impressive, the consumption is enormous. He cannot hold out for long," the black-robed youth said bluntly. "Defeating him won't be a problem."

Yun Yun nodded faintly, agreeing with the black-robed youth.

"Is that so? Then you can try." A cruel curve lifted at Chen Xuan's lips.
