Towards the Path of Heaven

Chapter 22

Zhou Long and Lu Yan looked at each other and smiled coldly. Then, their gazes were fixed on the skinny young man not far from there. Just like before, they exploded from the left and right of the young man. Their momentum is astounding.

The two pounced on Yan Chutian from both sides. Yan Chutian seemed to have accepted his fate in the face of such an attack. He's not avoiding it at all. Zhou Long and Lu Yan smiled coldly. It seemed like the man in front of them knew a few things and did not overestimate himself.

But will the real situation be like this?

"Gosh!"

Zhou Long's speed was still a little faster. Spiritual Qi surged in his right palm. At this moment, the Spiritual Qi was no longer gentle. It carried a terrifying tearing strength. With a single palm strike, it could crush a huge rock.

However, when his palm landed, the sneer at the corner of his mouth suddenly stopped. Because his palm didn't hit anything. When he looked again, the quiet young man was no longer in front of him!

"This …"

Zhou Long was stunned. The young man was clearly in front of him now. How did he disappear in the blink of an eye?

As he was stunned, a wave of light suddenly came from his side. Although the waves were very light, it made Zhou Long's body stiffen. He quickly retreated to the other side.

Zhou Long's reaction was extremely quick, but even so, he felt a sharp force pass through his body. When he landed on the ground in a sorry state, it was obvious that the clothes on his side had been torn to shreds. He could imagine that if he reacted a little slower, it was not his clothes that were torn, but his body …

When he looked again, he saw the young man standing two feet away. His young face looked at him with a hint of pity. It was as if he regretted his missed attack.

This made Zhou Long extremely angry. This kind of expression and attitude should be shown by him. Why would the man in front of him whom they said would be finished off in a single blow?

But in the next moment, he was so shocked that he could not say anything. Lu Yan attacked, the spirit energy in his right foot wreaking havoc, vaguely forming a whirlwind that sucked in external objects to withstand the terrifying attack power.

However, the moment the kick came, Yan Chutian actually disappeared again like a ghost. This was not only in Zhou Long's eyes, but also in Lu Yan's eyes.

Now that he had lost his target, Lu Yan could only disperse his strength and land back on the ground. At this moment, he and Zhou Long had ugly expressions. Why did the boy suddenly disappear again? What the hell is going on?!

"Hmm?"

Similarly, not only Lu Yan and Zhou Long, but the burly men around him were also perplexed, unable to believe what they saw. How could a living person suddenly disappear before his eyes?

Even Zhao Qiu's expression was uncertain. Although he could vaguely catch some traces of Yan Chutian, he would soon lose them. How could he not be surprised? How could a person who opened a small channel have such a strange ability!

Mu Wan's red lips opened, and her beautiful eyes were full of splendor. Because at this moment, he suddenly thought of something. Isn't this strange ability very similar to spirit arts? Yan Chu had already given him too many surprises. At this moment, he could really guess whether Yan Chu was using spirit techniques or not!

"Gosh!"

When the fist landed, Lu Yan immediately let out an extremely miserable howl. His body flew backwards, landing heavily in front of the mound of earth. The mound of earth shattered into pieces, and fresh blood spurted out from his mouth, staining the grass in front of him.

After being hit so hard, Lu Yan almost lost all of his strength. All he could do was lift his head with great difficulty and look in a certain direction. There, a skinny figure slowly appeared.

Lu Yan could not imagine. Victory is clearly in his hands now. How could it be reversed in an instant? The other party had a mysterious ability, how could he and Zhou Long deal with it?

Yan Chutian, who appeared, was slightly pale. To be able to reach such a level, it was naturally impossible for him not to expend any energy. One should know that he had used spirit arts.

The Stone Destroyer's punch could still be controlled, but the Shadow Steps expended too much spirit energy. In just a short moment, his energy center had been emptied of spirit energy, causing his face to turn pale.

However, the effects of the Shadow Steps were also shocking. At least, when he used it, no one in the Meridian Opening Stage could see it. It made him appear and disappear like a ghost!

"You …"

His comrades flew backwards and spewed blood, instantly losing heavily. Zhou Long, whose cultivation level was similar to his counterpart, trembled, and his forehead was filled with cold sweat. If the other party could easily defeat Lu Yan, then how good would he be?

At that moment, he was even thinking of escaping. If not for the fact that Zhao Qiu had to watch over him, he would not have wanted to stay any longer. It was just this kind of perseverance, when he saw Yan Chutian's body once again disappear like a ghost, Zhou Long didn't really care. His heart was filled with fear as he hurriedly fled towards the burly man around him.

However, no matter how fast he ran, he still could not escape Yan Chutian's palm. After running a few meters, a palm appeared behind him. The next second, there was an explosion of strength. Zhou Long, who was bleeding from his mouth, was thrown forward like a dead dog. Even if he did not die, he would be severely injured.

Seeing Zhou Long fall to the ground, Yan Chutian inevitably smiled to himself. If Zhou Long fought back with all his might, then he would use a lot of Spirit Qi. In his current state, he might not be able to last any longer than the other party. He did not expect her to run away in fear. It makes things easier for him.

And it seemed that because he had defeated the two men so quickly, the people around him were all terrified. Not only did they not attack him, but they also retreated, unable to avoid him in time. This scene made Zhao Qiu so angry that his lungs almost exploded. He did not expect his subordinates to be so useless, beaten up to such a state by a young man!

The only thing that made Zhao Qiu happy was that after a long battle, Mu Wan was gradually suppressed by him. He had the confidence to completely defeat him at any moment.

And as long as he defeated the young miss of the Mu Family, wouldn't it be easy for him to deal with the young man himself?

The situation went according to Zhao Qiu's plan. After several rounds, Mu Wan was indeed no match for him. He was sent flying by the palm, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. But before he could continue with another attack, he suddenly saw a black shadow that was faintly seen coming out. The next moment, the black shadow carried Mu Wan, who was sent flying, and directly went into the forest in front of him.

This scene appeared so suddenly even Zhao Qiu was unable to react in time. When he regained consciousness, the two had escaped into the forest and disappeared without a trace.

"Damn ... shit!"

Zhao Qiu's face was grim. An incredible ambush should have killed that damn brat and captured the young miss of the Mu Family. In the end, they fled. How could he not be angry?

And all this was because of the damned brat who had ruined their plans many times!
