Chapter 322

Ding Chunqiu had just arrived in Song Guo from the Xingxiu Sea.

Although he knew a thing or two about the rumors in the Jianghu,

he hadn't taken them to heart.

Seeing that Gu Hanyuan was so young,

he was even less convinced that he could be very strong.

He assumed he was just another young expert who had been hyped up.

Gu Hanyuan remained unmoved, his expression still cold and sharp.

He sneered and said:

"So it is Ding Chunqiu; your ignorance is laughable."

Seeing this, Ding Chunqiu could no longer hold back.

He struck out with his killer move, the "Draining Technique."

Although Ding Chunqiu's cultivation was decent,

it was still far inferior compared to Gu Hanyuan's.

A single strike of "Fame Well-Deserved" pierced directly through his "Draining Technique" power.

Ding Chunqiu retreated again and again.

The feather fan in his hand was shredded to pieces.

As he retreated, he hurriedly used his trump card, the "Three Smiles Xiaoyao Powder."

Seeing this, Gu Hanyuan didn't even draw his sword.

He clenched his free left hand into a fist.

He unleashed the seventh form of the "Heavenly Frost Fist," "Frost Condenses to Reveal Clumsiness."

Fist shadows flew, and frost descended from the sky.

It froze the poisonous mist directly into crystals.

Ding Chunqiu himself was covered in dense frost marks.

He hadn't expected Gu Hanyuan to be so troublesome.

It was one thing that his "Draining Technique" had failed to achieve anything,

but even his poison was completely countered by the "Heavenly Frost Fist."

For a moment, he found himself in a dilemma.

The crowd was also shocked by Gu Hanyuan's martial arts.

Su Xinghe was the most excited.

He hadn't expected that Gu Hanyuan, whom he held in such high regard, could suppress Ding Chunqiu.

He was simply the best successor to Wu Yazi's mantle.

Murong Fu looked at the power of the "Heavenly Frost Fist," which was so terrifying.

It carried an intent just like when Gu Hanyuan had demonstrated it before.

Because of this, he longed even more to comprehend such intent.

Those in the crowd with insufficient cultivation were forced to retreat by Gu Hanyuan's cold Qi.

Although Xuan Nan was poisoned,

his cultivation was profound, so the impact wasn't too severe.

Duan Zhengchun was the most miserable.

He was already injured,

and after being agitated by Gu Hanyuan's cold Qi,

he shivered uncontrollably.

He felt as if many parts of his body were no longer listening to him.

Ruan Xingzhu, however, was not paying attention to Duan Zhengchun as she usually did.

It wasn't just because she felt awkward facing Duan Zhengchun

after having been held in Gu Hanyuan's arms earlier.

Her thoughts about Gu Hanyuan, her prospective son-in-law, were complex.

She was certainly happy to see that her daughter's lover was so highly skilled.

But Ding Chunqiu had attacked her and Azi earlier.

Gu Hanyuan dealing with Ding Chunqiu was not only venting for Azi,

but also venting for her.

And because of their earlier contact,

her waist felt as if it were burning again.

Her thoughts inevitably became strange.

Azi's eyes were filled with little stars of admiration.

Originally, in her eyes, Ding Chunqiu was the most powerful martial artist,

and he had easily defeated her convenient father, Duan Zhengchun.

Yet now, facing Gu Hanyuan,

he was completely suppressed,

appearing helpless after only two moves.

Azi was filled with admiration for Gu Hanyuan at this moment.

She was cheering for him.

She glanced disdainfully at the miserable, frozen Duan Zhengchun,

feeling that only someone like Gu Hanyuan was a true hero.
