Chapter 101: with translation of chapter title

Damn, truly shameless!

Zhang Hai and Zhao Jie are not fools either.

This fellow saying that is clearly trying to raise the status of the Blazing Flame Hound on purpose.

Let the two of them test the waters.

Even if it means death, they'll be the first to go!

Unfortunately, before they were detained, the Mu Shan Cheng military had already confiscated all their escape talismans and spiritual treasures.

Even if they wanted to escape now, they probably couldn't.

They could only grit their teeth and charge at Gu Han and Wang Keyan respectively.

"I'll hold one off; once you deal with yours, come help me."

Wang Keyan consciously restrained one of the Great Martial Masters.

Just by their aura, these two Great Martial Masters are stronger than the one who previously chased her.

Although Gu Han had once slain a Great Martial Master alone, he might not necessarily be able to take on two.

Although she is no match for a Great Martial Master, she can still hold them off for a moment.

Seeing Wang Keyan take the initiative, Zhao Jie's face lit up with joy.

"I'll take care of her!"

He swung his iron whip and chased after Wang Keyan.

Zhang Hai blinked, looking blankly at Zhao Jie, who was just a step ahead of him.

"Damn!"

Just from their appearance, Gu Han and Wang Keyan seem to be about the same age.

But it's obvious at a glance that this fellow Gu Han is the tough one!

Zhang Hai only felt he was a step slow and missed out on the Soft Persimmon!

Gu Han smiled faintly, rubbed his wrist, and with a tap of his toe shot out like a lingering afterimage.

"Phew, phew, that speed looks like only a third- or fourth-rank Great Martial Master."

Zhang Hai is at least a proud fifth-rank Great Martial Master.

After seeing Gu Han burst forth with that speed, although surprised that someone so young could be a Great Martial Master, he didn't feel afraid.

Zhang Hai stepped forward, swinging his Mad Blade in a wide arc.

The mighty force signaled that Zhang Hai had exerted all his strength in that strike.

Void-Splitting Sword Qi!

This time Gu Han did not continue using the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger; instead, his Clear Wind Sword suddenly slashed down.

After mastering basic sword techniques, Gu Han's execution of all sword techniques saw increased power.

Boom!

The sword qi of the Mad Blade and the Clear Wind Sword collided violently in midair.

The violent energy plowed long gouges into the surrounding ground!

This strike actually ended in a draw!

Zhang Hai's pupils contracted sharply; the distance between them had now closed.

After delivering that slash, he needed an instant to swing his blade again.

But at this critical moment, Zhang Hai instantly gathered power and thrust a punch at Gu Han's chest.

Gu Han's gaze remained calm as he pointed a finger.

The moment the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger appeared, alarm bells rang in Zhang Hai's mind.

Survival instinct made Zhang Hai subconsciously want to pull back.

But the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger had already annihilated Zhang Hai's punch force, leaving a bloody hole in his fist!

The Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger's momentum undiminished, Zhang Hai hastily gathered inner force to form a shield, yet it was still pierced, shooting through his shoulder.

"Ugh!"

Zhang Hai let out a miserable howl, his body shooting back rapidly, but Gu Han closed in on him.

Bang!

Blazing Fist!

As a martial skill Gu Han mastered from the start, his Blazing Fist has long since reached the hall of mastery!

Had he not poured his martial skill experience into other newly learned techniques, his Blazing Fist would have long since reached perfection!

In the midst of three consecutive sonic booms.

Zhang Hai's armor was dented, his body blasted away, and he kept spitting blood.

When he hit the ground, his face was ashen as gold paper, his eyes filled with terror and despair.

To guard against any hidden tricks Zhang Hai might have, Gu Han did not close in; instead, he held his Clear Wind Sword and unleashed a Wind-Splitting Sword Qi.

The sword qi carved a deep, bone-revealing wound in Zhang Hai's chest, causing him to breathe his last.

Confirming Zhang Hai's death, Gu Han immediately rushed toward Wang Keyan.

On that side of the battlefield, Wang Keyan had long been suppressed by Zhao Jie, able only to barely resist.

Thanks to the many treasures Di Ying left for Wang Keyan, she did not collapse immediately.

Meanwhile, Zhao Jie anxiously sought to defeat Wang Keyan while keeping an eye on the battle between Zhang Hai and Gu Han.

When he saw Zhang Hai's miserable death, his pupils shrank to pinpoints, and his heart was shaken for a long time.

Zhang Hai and he were roughly equal in strength, which is why they acted together.

But even against this youngster, Zhang Hai couldn't survive three moves before meeting a miserable death.

Too terrifying!

Thinking this, seeing Gu Han already approaching, Zhao Jie instantly became ruthless in his heart.

He glared ferociously, hard-resisting the treasure blast unleashed by Wang Keyan, lunging forward to seize Wang Keyan as a hostage.

He didn't seek to kill Gu Han; he only sought to preserve his life!

However, just as he approached Wang Keyan, a huge wolf-beast suddenly roared and charged.

What shocked him most was that this wolf-beast actually split into three, each looking as if carved from the same mold.

All three wolf-beasts opened their bloody maws, endless water blades shooting from their mouths toward Zhao Jie's chest.

"Damn wolf-beast, if my battle pet hadn't failed to arrive, how could I end up like this?"

Zhao Jie roared, a yellow light curtain surged over his body, blocking all the water blades.

But in that brief moment, Gu Han had already darted close.

Zhao Jie's eyes nearly burst, he finally unleashed his extreme speed at the critical moment, his palm lunging for Wang Keyan's throat!

Wang Keyan's face changed drastically, yet she saw a flash of cold light before her.

Gu Han crossed over twenty-plus meters in the blink of an eye.

From being over ten meters behind Zhao Jie, he instantly arrived beside Wang Keyan.

And Zhao Jie heard a crack; his condensed shield shattered at once.

"Impossible, how could you possibly have such speed?"

Zhao Jie muttered in shock, his tone full of disbelief.

He is, after all, a fifth-stage Great Martial Master.

To unleash a speed even he can barely comprehend, at least one must be a Martial Sect!

In other words, even an eighth- or ninth-stage Great Martial Master's maximum speed could not keep up with Gu Han using the Steel-Cutting Flash!

Gu Han curled his lip, having no intention to explain to Zhao Jie, he lunged forward and struck down with a sword.

He had previously used the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger, but basically only with his body or aided by architectural cover.

He had never used it in front of Wang Keyan and Di Ying.

At this moment, being extremely close to Wang Keyan, Gu Han chose not to unleash the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger.

Zhao Jie's mind was in Panic, flustered as he dealt with Gu Han's attack.

The combatants' battle qi shook the surrounding ground until it cracked completely.

Gu Han's current realm is that of a tenth-stage Martial Practitioner, the gap with Zhao Jie's realm is indeed large.

If not for the tremendous boost from tenth-stage Martial Warrior and tenth-stage Martial Practitioner, as well as Gu Han possessing attributes far surpassing those of his peers.

To cross two major realms and contend with Zhao Jie would absolutely be an extremely difficult task.

In fact, if Zhao Jie could calm down and respond, meeting each move with a counter.

When facing Gu Han, who does not use heaven-tier supreme martial arts, he would certainly not be so flustered.

But Zhao Jie has already become timid at this moment; even if Gu Han does not use the Pure Yang Demon-Subduing Finger, defeating Zhao Jie is merely a matter of time.
