Chapter 600 - 600: The Crown Prince's Confidant
Chapter 600: Chapter 600: The Crown Prince’s Confidant
Outside the cave, there were also two figures. One radiated a bright light, not a real body, but a spirit body formed by the power of spirit eyes.
This spirit body was none other than Crown Prince Zhou Yishui.
Standing next to him was a young man in black, of ordinary looks and a cold expression, his eyes fixed on the array.
“I don’t know who is here, but it should not be someone from my royal family.” Zhou Yishui said.
“I’ll break this array.” The young man in black said, and boldly took action, directly throwing a punch at the light screen of the array.
The light screen of the array flickered, but it was not shattered by the young man in black.
Just then, Fang Lin and Steward Shen also emerged from the cave and immediately noticed the presence of Zhou Yishui and the young man in black outside the array.
“Fang Lin!” Both Zhou Yishui and the young man in black were somewhat surprised, not expecting to encounter Fang Lin here.
However, Zhou Yishui immediately revealed a smile, while the young man in black had a cold purpose in his eyes.
Fang Lin and Steward Shen were also slightly taken aback, not expecting the Crown Prince Zhou Yishui to appear here.
“It’s not a real body, but a spirit body!” Steward Shen frowned, Fang Lin just nodded; Zhou Yishui’s appearance was obviously not his true body.
“Fang Lin, come out and face your death!” The young man in black said coldly, his eyes full of the will to fight.
Fang Lin looked at him with disdain: “Who are you anyway? If you have the courage, come in and fight me.”
“He is my confidant.” Zhou Yishui said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the contempt on Fang Lin’s face deepened: “So you’re just a lackey, then step aside, you’re not worthy to fight me.”
At these words, Zhou Yishui showed no reaction, but the young man in black was instantly enraged: “Fang Lin, watch how I kill you!”
Steward Shen said to Fang Lin: “His name is Xu Wang, one of the Crown Prince’s personal guards. His strength is formidable, on par with the top talents of Xuan Country.”
Fang Lin nodded: “Xu Wang, is it? You should just stay out of the way and let your master come forth with his real body.”
“Fang Lin, if you can’t even defeat my servant, then you’re not qualified to face my real body.” Zhou Yishui said with a composed demeanor, seemingly not considering Fang Lin a threat at all.
Fang Lin laughed and with a wave of his hand dismissed the array.
“Come on, both of you at once, watch how I beat you to the point where you’ll be crawling the floor looking for your teeth!” Fang Lin said defiantly, looking utterly arrogant.
Steward Shen glanced at Fang Lin, thinking that he might be overestimating himself. Although Fang Lin was powerful, fighting Xu Wang alone would not be easy, let alone facing Zhou Yishui’s spirit body at the same time.
“Hmph! If you want to fight the Crown Prince, beat me first.” Xu Wang snorted coldly and charged towards Fang Lin.
“Shen, cover me!” Fang Lin roared and instantly rose to meet him.
Boom!
Both men threw their punches, without any fancy moves, as if they had agreed on it.
For this punch, Fang Lin did not use his full strength, he chose to test the waters.
Xu Wang also held back some of his strength and did not use his full power.
The next moment, both men retreated. Xu Wang took three steps back, but Fang Lin took seven steps back.
This scene made Steward Shen frown. Judging from this single exchange of blows, it seemed that Fang Lin would not be able to defeat Xu Wang.
“Is that all you’ve got?” Xu Wang sneered, the scorn in his eyes thickening.
Fang Lin shook his fist and laughed: “A Heavenly Origin Level Five realm, that’s all? You weren’t even able to defeat me, a Earth Element martial artist, with a single punch. What’s the point of you being alive?”
At these words, Xu Wang’s face turned ugly. The thought that Fang Lin was only at the Earth Element’s Ninth Layer made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
“Xu Wang, don’t hold back, finish him off here.” Zhou Yishui said indifferently, while glancing at Steward Shen.
Steward Shen was also looking at Zhou Yishui, a sense of apprehension in his eyes. Even though it was just one of Zhou Yishui’s spirit bodies, Steward Shen still felt as if a sword was hanging over his head.
Xu Wang nodded, his eyes revealing a murderous intent.
“Want to kill me?” Fang Lin sneered, likewise holding nothing back anymore.
Boom!
The two of them clashed again, and this time it was Xu Wang’s turn to be surprised. In his opinion, he would easily kill Fang Lin with his full strength. After all, the gap in their levels was clear, and Fang Lin had no reason to be able to compete with him.
But this time, Xu Wang didn’t gain any advantage at all. The strength of Fang Lin’s punch was incredibly surprising, no weaker than his own.
“How is this possible?” Xu Wang was shocked, was Fang Lin really only an Earth Element Ninth Layer? This was too absurd, wasn’t it?
Yet, Xu Wang was a seasoned young expert. Despite his surprise, he did not show any signs of relaxation.
The two men kept clashing, without using any martial arts techniques. They were relying purely on their raw strength.
This was the ultimate test of their true strength. Xu Wang wanted to crush Fang Lin in the most direct way possible, but he hadn’t expected Fang Lin to be so formidable. His physical strength was no weaker than his own, and even the density of his inner strength was not far behind.
The most terrifying thing was that Fang Lin was only at Earth Element ninth layer, while Xu Wang was at Heavenly Origin fifth level. Yet, they were on equal ground. What did it mean?
It meant that Fang Lin, being at Earth Element ninth layer, had the strength comparable to a powerful warrior at Heavenly Origin fifth level.
Even Crown Prince Zhou Yishui, when he was at the Earth Element ninth layer, couldn’t stand up to fighters at Heavenly Origin fifth level. The gap of levels was simply too wide.
Yet Fang Lin had achieved it!
“This boy must not be left alive!” Both Zhou Yishui and Xu Wang had the same thought. Fang Lin was a terrifying individual. If he were to break through to the Heavenly Origin level, how formidable would his strength become? It was probably beyond anyone’s imagination.
Zhou Yishui was quite conceited. There were few talents in Xuan Country that he would acknowledge, let alone consider a threat.
In the past, Zhou Yishui had only felt threatened by the Undefeatable Naughty Man.
But now, another name had been added to that list: Fang Lin.
What posed a threat to Zhou Yishui wasn’t Fang Lin’s strength but his potential.
“Die!” Xu Wang did not want to keep clashing with Fang Lin, so used his martial arts.
With a palm strike, a bloody flash appeared in the center of Xu Wang’s palm, morphing into a grimacing ghost face.
“Hm?” Fang Lin didn’t dare to underestimate Xu Wang’s attack, stepping back immediately.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Xu Wang gave chase, the blood-red ghost face emerging from his palm, creating a chilling wind as it lunged directly at Fang Lin.
“Watch out! It’s the Blood Soul Hand!” Steward Shen exclaimed.
Fang Lin glanced back, his eyes flashing.
As he activated the White Elephant Trampling Mountain, a large image of a white elephant appeared, stomping ferociously at the blood-red ghost face.
Boom!
The blood-red ghost face was squashed onto the ground by the white elephant’s foot, but in the next moment, it exploded with a shocking force, causing the phantom white elephant to collapse instantly.
“Not bad.” Fang Lin laughed and flicked his fingers.
Finger of the Firmament!
