Chapter 380

Human gazes and cheers possess power.

You Ming had always firmly believed in this point.

When he was a child, watching his father win one duel after another in the arena, watching the people around him cheer and shout for his father, and listening to the praise and envy coming from all around.

He began to yearn for a day like that for himself, and later, he indeed got his wish.

If it hadn't been for that turn of events, he would have enjoyed such a life very much.

So many years had passed, and he had lost his former appearance and name, using a codename that no one knew.

On the streets centered around the Hongxiu Building, there were nearly ten thousand people inside and out.

The moment You Ming's voice rang out, everyone's gaze looked over.

Once again standing in the sunlight, being the center of attention.

You Ming could still generate joy and anticipation from the bottom of his heart.

"Who are you?"

Miss Shentu Yue frowned as she looked at You Ming standing on the roof.

Hearing this question, You Ming's expression was dazed for a moment.

Afterwards, he sighed: "It doesn't matter anymore."

The next second, darkness shrouded the entire Hongxiu Building!

Even though it was under the scorching sun, the people in the building at this moment could not see any light and could not feel a trace of warmth.

There was only stillness and gloom.

Huang Jin's expression changed.

In this instant, he lost his perception of his surroundings, including Miss Shentu Yue, who was standing right beside him; he could no longer perceive her either!

Cold killing intent emerged in the darkness, locking onto him.

And at this moment, he was isolated and helpless.

"Is it someone from the New Heaven Society? The other party actually dares to send someone directly to kill me?!"

Huang Jin had already reacted and felt it was very unbelievable.

However, this did not delay him from making a response.

A bright sword light tore through the darkness, and scorching flames burned fiercely.

The firelight illuminated the gloom, and the high temperature dispelled the cold.

A phoenix bathed in fire soared in the darkness!

The supreme art of the Red Dust Pavilion, "Bright Phoenix Sword Scripture."

Dao Force — 【Flame Soaring Phoenix】!

The enemy's "Divine Intent" affected the entire Hongxiu Building; this was a method of Dao Force, so Huang Jin also responded with Dao Force.

He had not stimulated the core-level extraordinary abilities of all five implants, and his apparent combat power was only at the 7th rank.

But by relying on his extraordinary sword technique, he had stepped into the level of the peak of the Dao Foundation Establishment realm, and two years ago, he was listed in the candidate list for the Wind and Cloud General Ranking by "Under Heaven."

Previously, Miss Shentu Yue said that his sword technique had another breakthrough, and it was indeed so; otherwise, he would not have gone to challenge Li Fei.

Perhaps in terms of overall combat power, he was inferior, but when facing any Dao Foundation Establishment realm martial artist under heaven, Huang Jin had the confidence to fight them!

However, this opponent exceeded his expectations.

In the darkness, there seemed to be something indistinct winding over, extinguishing the bright flames and making the soaring phoenix sluggish, as if it had fallen into a swamp named "Netherworld."

After the phoenix bathed in fire had soared for less than a second, it dissolved into the darkness!

"How could..."

Huang Jin's face was full of astonishment.

Only absolute crushing at the Dao Force level could cause such a result!

But how could a Dao Foundation Establishment realm martial artist crush him in Dao Force?

Unless...

A strong sense of fear surged into his heart. Until this moment, Huang Jin suddenly realized:

He had been too rash. Knowing clearly that the New Heaven Society's strength was unfathomable, why did he dare to suddenly fall out with the other party?

The other party even dared to assassinate the Emperor; what did he, a true disciple of the Red Dust Pavilion, count for?

"The sword has two edges..."

This sentence surfaced in Huang Jin's mind again.

Fear, panic, remorse, and all sorts of negative emotions filled his heart. The surrounding darkness was about to swallow him completely!

Suddenly, another firelight lit up in the darkness.

This firelight was even more brilliant than the one just now!

Afterwards, a phoenix bathed in fire tore through the darkness, scattering a rain of fire all around.

Passionate, blooming, soaring into the sky!

The phoenix flies south, the spiritual flames are like rain.

Dao Force — 【Flame Soaring Phoenix】!

Looking at the phoenix soaring above his head and the rain of fire falling all around, Huang Jin forgot his fear for a moment and immersed himself in this stunningly beautiful scene.

He knew that this was Miss Shentu Yue taking action.

As a fellow true disciple of the Pavilion Master, Miss Shentu Yue also practiced the "Bright Phoenix Sword Scripture," so it was Huang Jin who had guided her martial arts in the beginning.

But the young girl who once followed behind Huang Jin learning sword techniques had now walked ahead of him.

Using the same move 【Flame Soaring Phoenix】, when Miss Shentu Yue used it, it truly embodied the nobility of the phoenix, like a monarch of flames!

The darkness was finally torn apart completely, and Huang Jin and Miss Shentu Yue saw the light again.

And for the onlookers around, they only saw You Ming, standing on the roof, lightly flicking his sleeves toward the bottom, and a majestic force shrouded the entire Hongxiu Building.

Afterwards, Huang Jin and Miss Shentu Yue drew their swords one after another, and two sword lights shot into the sky, causing bursts of exclamations.

"Does your Excellency intend to be an enemy of my Red Dust Pavilion?!"

Miss Shentu Yue's expression became solemn, and she questioned loudly.

The group of Martial Order Department martial artists maintaining order around them all felt a bit puzzled. With Miss Shentu Yue's strength as the second on the Wind and Cloud General Ranking, plus a Huang Jin, even if they really encountered some assassin, was it necessary to be so like facing a great enemy?

You Ming smiled and flicked his sleeves toward the bottom again:

"And what if I am?"

The darkness that had just been broken surged over again from all directions like a tide!

Huang Jin and Miss Shentu Yue's two 【Flame Soaring Phoenix】 moves one after another had not been able to completely break You Ming's first Dao Force move. Now that he used his second Dao Force move, he followed the trend to connect with the first move, stimulating the "lingering charm" of the first move, making the second move like "adding oil to the fire," becoming even more powerful!

Being able to connect two Dao Force moves so smoothly had already exceeded the level of "Entering the Dao."

"As-You-Wish Realm?"

Miss Shentu Yue finally confirmed the conjecture in her heart, and while drawing her sword, she said loudly:

"Sound the alarm—"

The next second, her voice was annihilated by the darkness.

The crowd was in a commotion.

Ordinary people could only see the dark force You Ming struck toward the bottom; only the martial artists closest could perceive the strong oppressive feeling brought by the Dao Force, and a large shadow was vaguely projected into their minds, and the scene before their eyes dimmed accordingly.

After hearing Miss Shentu Yue's words, the martial artists maintaining order realized the severity of the problem.

Someone immediately took out the signal gun at their waist and aimed it at the sky.

But before he could pull the trigger, his eyes suddenly widened, and he fell backward.

He completely lost his breath!

A martial artist nearby saw this and immediately rushed over to pick up the signal gun on the ground.

But before he could get up, he fell headfirst to the ground and also lost his breath!

Now the martial artists around were frightened and didn't dare to pick up the signal gun again.

"Attack together!"

A Dao Foundation Establishment realm martial artist leading the team shouted loudly.

Then he suddenly let out a muffled groan, his eyes widened, revealing a look of horror.

Pfft—

This Dao Foundation Establishment realm martial artist spat out a mouthful of blood, and his aura weakened rapidly.

He fell down in pain and soon lost his breath.

A Dao Foundation Establishment realm expert had died just like that!

This scene made the Martial Order Department martial artists around show looks of horror.

Without seeing force, without seeing a figure, without perceiving any extraordinary ability or spell fluctuations, a Dao Foundation Establishment realm expert had died just like that?

"It's a Divine Ability!"

Someone shouted in panic.

This man who suddenly killed his way out was actually a Martial Arts Grandmaster?!

"Run—"

The group of martial artists fled in all directions, completely losing the courage to resist.

Facing a Martial Arts Grandmaster, except for those at the peak of the Dao Foundation Establishment realm, the others almost had no qualifications to exchange moves with them, and could only use their lives to consume the other party's force and Divine Ability power.

But still that sentence:

How much salary do you earn a month? Why are you risking your life?

On the roof, You Ming looked down at the martial artists fleeing in all directions, his smile unchanged.

Without seeing him make any move, one martial artist after another fell down without warning and died right there.

Such a means of killing had indeed exceeded the scope of martial arts.

This was a Divine Ability!

Daring to kill his way over so confidently, saying he wanted to kill her senior brother in front of the second on the Wind and Cloud General Ranking, You Ming naturally had his own confidence.

A Martial Arts Grandmaster, wherever they are placed, is a giant of one side!

The crowd near the Hongxiu Building began to stir, constantly emitting exclamations and screams.

But the crowd in the back didn't know what was happening in the front; they only saw You Ming at the highest point taking action.

"Has it started?"

"Is that person Li Fei?"

"Why don't I see Miss Shentu Yue?"

"."

The vast majority of people still maintained the mentality of watching the duel.

Then they saw a flash of gorgeous red.

A scorching sword light rose from the ground and stabbed toward You Ming on the roof.

The sword light bloomed in the air, turning into bright yellow feathers; these feathers outlined a small world, locking You Ming within it.

Even from far away, even ordinary people who had never practiced martial arts could perceive a noble aura from these drifting feathers.

Spiritual treasures of heaven and earth, a hundred birds coming to court.

Dao Force — 【Feather Court Phoenix】!

For a time, the gazes of ten thousand people were attracted by the graceful figure soaring into the sky and the magnificent move.

Knowing clearly that the opponent was a Martial Arts Grandmaster, Miss Shentu Yue still took the initiative to draw her sword without hesitation!

Zhu Zhu Fenghua, the first on the Wind and Cloud General Ranking, could exchange a hundred moves with a Martial Arts Grandmaster without being defeated; although she was inferior to the other party, she also had the confidence to fight.

This was the provincial capital of Gan Province; as long as she could hold on for a moment, she could wait for Chi Chi Chengyu and the Imperial Guard Army!

Huang Jin was only a moment slower than Miss Shentu Yue; he also soared into the sky and stabbed out with his sword.

Miss Shentu Yue gave him infinite courage, making him no longer afraid.

"With Junior Sister and me joining forces, we will definitely..."

Ao—

A majestic dragon roar interrupted Huang Jin's train of thought.

A dark dragon appeared out of thin air, circling You Ming, setting him off as if he were a monarch in a dark world!

The dragon only gently swayed its body, and it tore through the small world composed of feathers, breaking Miss Shentu Yue's 【Feather Court Phoenix】.

How can a shallow pond trap a dragon?

Immediately following, the dragon bared its fangs and brandished its claws, tearing toward Miss Shentu Yue.

"Junior Sister!"

Huang Jin's eyes were about to split, and he disregarded everything to draw his sword to meet the dragon.

The phoenix bathed in fire appeared again, but the next second, its body was bitten through by the dragon!

The aftermath of the force formed a huge mirror surface, spreading all around.

The outer wall of the sixth floor of the Hongxiu Building cracked, visibly swaying a few times, and a wild wind swept across half the city!

The two people who had leaped high fell down.

Exclamations came from all directions.

People stared fixedly at that arrogant black dragon, revealing looks of amazement.

They had come today to watch Miss Shentu Yue and Li Fei duel, but ended up seeing Miss Shentu Yue and another person join forces to fight the enemy, only to be knocked down by the other party in one move!

Who is this person? Why is he so strong?

You Ming stood on the roof, listening to the sounds all around, feeling the gazes of ten thousand people, and slightly closed his eyes.

This is the feeling!

He could clearly feel that power coming from the gazes and exclamations gathering toward him.

In the dark heaven and earth, I should be the leader!

You Ming looked at Miss Shentu Yue and Huang Jin below, not in a hurry to kill.

Whether it was Chi Chi Chengyu or the Imperial Guard Army, it would take a certain amount of time for them to rush over.

This was enough for him to complete today's "performance."

He first pointed at Huang Jin:

"You don't even have the qualifications to make me draw my sword."

Then he pointed at Miss Shentu Yue:

"You are still okay."
