Truly heavy palm strength – indeed Xu Yun had the general idea – because Crimson Scorpion’s Scorpion Tail Needles used too much of his attention to defend against, thus Xu Yun had neglected Crimson Scorpion’s fist and palm gongfu. After all he was a 1st-tier elite, his fists and palms contained the internal strength to crush rocks into dust.
Crimson Scorpion’s chest staunchly resisted Xu Yun’s kick, and his situation was very bad; his raspy breathing became a lot heavier. Crimson Scorpion hadn’t thought that the guy in front of him would use two flip-flops as bait, and had actually come down from above his head.
“Just who the h.e.l.l are you!” Crimson Scorpion’s gaze entirely concentrated on Xu Yun. This level of elite in the Underworld would absolutely have their name resonate throughout, but how could he have never seen this person? Could he be Millennium Feng’s hidden secret weapon?
“If you can defeat me, then it won’t be too late to tell you then. Too bad I won’t give you this chance.” Xu Yun seized the chance of Crimson Scorpion using the time to gasp for air, and quickly adjusted his blood and Qi of his meridians. After all he was an experienced master of medicine, and knew how to, at any time, adjust his body for peak performance.
Crimson Scorpion’s two eyes flashed with a cold light. “Talking big now is still too early isn’t it? Do you think my Scorpion Tail Needles are really so easy to deal with!”
In the instant his voice dropped, Crimson Scorpion’s body again dropped to the ground shrinking, and his body suddenly exploded open in an instant with countless cold needles showering disorderly from his rear-raised right leg into the sky!
Xu Yun frowned his brow downwards, could it be that the one kick just now didn’t even have the most basic accuracy?
“Sky Blotting Needle Rain!” Crimson Scorpion coldly laughed, his whole body suddenly quickly retreated outwards.
Not good! Xu Yun said to himself. Once he raised his head, with the dark clouds that had been blocking the moonlight just exposing the moon, a whole sky of silvery light rained down from the sky! An attack just like a net covering the sky.
Xu Yun didn’t have the time to think, with exquisite steps backwards he evaded like a swimming dragon or a rising wave – if he couldn’t dodge it he would directly be shot into a hedgehog! Did this b.a.s.t.a.r.d really have that many poisonous needles on his body?
With this evasion, Xu Yun directly retreated out 20 meters. In his heart he was greatly surprised by the large attack radius.
Very quickly, the pain came from his left arm again from being sc.r.a.ped by Scorpion Tail Needles, and the center of Xu Yun’s brow couldn’t help but to crumple into a cl.u.s.ter. He was a bit worried about Qiu Yan. If even he couldn’t guarantee that he hadn’t been injured, then it was even less so for Qiu Yan.
Xu Yun was worried Qiu Yan had been hit by Scorpion Tail Needles. According to Xu Yun’s senses, the poison in these Scorpion Tail Needles was very strong – if it wasn’t handled in time it could very easily endanger life.
No matter what it was, he would have to fight and win quickly! Even though Xu Yun didn’t know Qiu Yan’s situation, but he was very clear Qiu Yan already pretty much had no fighting strength, so it seemed very possible that she already had been hit by Scorpion Tail Needles. He was very clear that the longer he dragged the fight with Crimson Scorpion, the less advantageous it would be.
Xu Yun’s piercing eyes saw Crimson Scorpion 30 meters away from himself, and Xu Yun that hadn’t killed for a long time finally moved with killing intent. As long as he could break Crimson Scorpion’s right leg, then this battle wouldn’t have the least suspense.
Boom! Xu Yun struck first – his foot stored strength and launched, his whole body charged like breaking bamboo at Crimson Scorpion. Crimson Scorpion wasn’t the kind of person to sit and wait. Even though the Sky Blotting Needle Rain just now wasn’t capable of hurting Xu Yun, but it gave him enough time to adjust his meridians of Qi and blood. The basically recovered Crimson Scorpion without the slightest hesitation went forward to meet the enemy!
Two people’s fists and palms collided, this time they were completely competing with internal power!
From the start of Xu Yun cultivating, qi was heavily emphasized as the primary. His honored Master once said that internal strength was the basis of a completely different fighting style. Fists without internal energy weren’t much different than a cotton ball. Also Xu Yun liked to study medicine, and he himself had adjusted very many internal energy nouris.h.i.+ng medical pills and taken them.
Thus Xu Yun had never lost to another elite in the same realm in the internal energy aspect, and now of course he was exceptionally faithful that he wouldn’t lose to Crimson Scorpion!
As expected, once the two internal energies exploded between them, Crimson Scorpion’s heart surged, such power! This guy’s internal energy was at the pinnacle of the 1st-tier elite realm!
In order to protect himself from suffering even bigger wounds, Crimson Scorpion hastily pulled back his internal energy and quickly retreated. How would Xu Yun give him the chance? With each step he pressed forward.
In a panic and confused, Crimson Scorpion directly raised his leg and threw out Scorpion Tail Needles!
In such close range, of course Xu Yun wouldn’t miss the chance. He chopped with his palm and blocked Crimson Scorpion’s attack. Closely following, his right fist stored up strength and abruptly shot out like a bullet and like a wave of lightning, directly striking Crimson Scorpion’s right leg!
A spell of ma.s.sive pain directly at his leg transmitted to the senses in Crimson Scorpion’s head. Crimson Scorpion completely not caring about his sorry image, jumped back several meters with his hands and feet, and a hundred or so Scorpion Tail Needles flew out before sealing Xu Yun’s pressing steps with great difficulty.
Xu Yun’s attack was very clear, as long as he could break Crimson Scorpion’s right leg, it would be equivalent to twisting off a scorpion’s tail!
Without waiting for Xu Yun to continue coming forward, Crimson Scorpion again used the Sky Blotting Needle Rain! Having experience, Xu Yun quickly pulled back. He had already grasped clearly what Sky Blotting Needle Rain’s attack radius was, so he very relaxingly escaped 20 meters away.
*~Pi-li-pa-la* silver needles again shot to the ground, not even entering his base!
“It’s no use.” Xu Yun’s smile carried quite a bit of provocation. After clearly grasping Crimson Scorpion’s attacks and weaknesses with a complete grasp, the next fast round would settle his opponent!
But Crimson Scorpion coldly laughed. Suddenly from his pants pocket nestled close to his body he pulled out a merged black and white pill. Facing Xu Yun with his gaze, he directly threw the pill in his mouth.
Xu Yun was surprised, did this guy have a cold? Why would he eat something that was white and black?
Can’t be right……if he had a cold, then at night he should eat a black pill. What was that merged black and white thing? Xu Yun’s mind rapidly filtered. Suddenly he was shocked, could it be the thing Crimson Scorpion ate was a Forbidden Medicine – Yin-Yang Pill!
That was a Forbidden Medicine that could instantly promote a person’s mind and battle strength by one tier! It was called the Yin-Yang Pill because this thing was simply terrifying, completely because it was a medicine pill that shortened life. However, its effect couldn’t be denied – if a 2nd-tier elite ate it, his strength could reach the realm of the 1st-tier elite, and if a 1st-tier elite ate it, his strength could even further directly reach the Ultra Elite realm!
Attaining such increased ability of course would need a cost. On the light side it could shorten life, to the heavy side it could take life! So the Yin-Yang Pill was directly labeled as a Forbidden Medicine. This thing would always exist in the Underworld, completely because of profits, and this kind of costly thing wasn’t something ordinary people could afford.
Xu Yun hadn’t thought that Crimson Scorpion would use this kind of pyrrhic fighting method like to kill a thousand of the enemy, lose eight hundred. But in his heart he was very clear, it was fundamentally impossible for him to win against an Ultra Elite! Even if he had become a Ultra Elite by means of a Forbidden Medicine, he still wouldn’t be able to defeat him.
Crimson Scorpion’s body suddenly shot out. In the instant of a blink of an eye he already came in front of Xu Yun. And Xu Yun in a bad position with no time, completely hadn’t thought that after Crimson Scorpion ate the Yin-Yang Pill, his speed would rise to such a terrifying level!
Boom-!
A solid thunderclap struck directly on Xu Yun’s left chest. Xu Yun’s originally already smoothly tuned meridians again fell into disarray – his chest boiled, and his whole body flew like a kite with its string cut, spraying out a mouthful of blood with a *~pu*!
Having this kind of difference in battle strength, Xu Yun completely didn’t have a chance of fighting back. Without waiting for Xu Yun’s body to hit the ground, Crimson Scorpion already swept across with one foot – from one sharp, strong kick, Xu Yun’s whole body flew out 10+ meters, stiffly cras.h.i.+ng into and toppling yet another thick willow tree to the ground.
The dark clouds obscuring the moonlight completely scattered and Crimson Scorpion stood beneath the moonlight. Seeing Xu Yun sprawled out on the floor before him, he coldly laughed, “You’re the first that could force me to eat medicine.”
Hearing an immense noise, Qin Wan’er again crawled to the window, she looked amazed at the scene before her eyes – bright red blood hung from the corners of Xu Yun’s mouth as he lay on the ground, with a huge willow tree pressing down on his leg, and Crimson Scorpion stood in front of Xu Yun, from head to toe emitting an undefeatable aura.
Crimson Scorpion suddenly turned his head and looked back at the panacea restaurant’s second floor window. His two eyes with a cold and dark gaze met as four with Qin Wan’er’s. Qin Wan’er went soft from head to toe, and now she completely understood why Xu Yun emphasized time and time again, to not let her provoke this wanted criminal – because merely with this savage gaze, Qin Wan’er was defeated. Her entire body’s joints had no way of doing anything to her control…….
A dark silhouette flashed, and Crimson Scorpion already leapt to the window. He looked at that little police officer paralyzed, sitting on the floor in the room, and the powerless Qiu Yan, already weakened by torture from the poison of the Scorpion Tail Needles. In his heart suddenly arose a strong burst of achievement.
“Bring the little girl out, and I won’t kill you.” Crimson Scorpion said to Qin Wan’er. From his mouth hung a merciless smile.
Qin Wan’er was in such formidable pressure that she actually didn’t even know how to resist.
  ……
Xu Yun closed his eyes. His breathing completely stopped. He didn’t think that he could still survive. According to normal considerations, it was fundamentally impossible for him to take a single hit from Crimson Scorpion, but now he was exceptionally determined that he would still survive.
Alive, only because he must live! If he died he couldn’t protect anyone, and he could defend no one. Xu Yun didn’t want to again lose anyone, the scene of Yin Long’s tragic death once again attacked his mind……
Xu Yun didn’t allow anyone to hurt the people he wanted to protect! At the moment Yin Long’s smile came into Xu Yun’s mind, Xu Yun abruptly grasped the willow and started pus.h.i.+ng himself to stand up. He again was unable to control and directly suppress the inner demons within the depths of his heart, and the inner evil suddenly erupted out!
Crimson Scorpion who had already leaped to the second floor of the panacea restaurant heard the sound of a voice from the level below, and he was entirely startled to a stop. He turned around, his face astonished as he looked at Xu Yun who had stood up.
Just a moment ago didn’t he already die? How could people that even already stopped breathing still be able to stand up? The expression in Crimson Scorpion’s eyes was full of inconceivable amazement – impossible, absolutely impossible! He didn’t believe it!
“Crimson Scorpion. I’ll say it again, your opponent is me.” Xu Yun touched the bloodstain hanging on the corners of his mouth. An evil grim aura faintly arose, the expression in his eyes became piercingly cold lights, similar to the encompa.s.sing cold of the Death G.o.d attaching to a body.
Impossible! Crimson Scorpion pupils suddenly enlarged twice over. The shadow once again flashed, directly leaping out of the interior of the panacea restaurant. The form of the palm suddenly changed, immediately the five fingers a.s.sumed the form of a claw, grasping towards Xu Yun from the front! The Yin-Yang pill allowed Crimson Scorpion’s speed to be enhanced by a large margin, and he believed that Xu Yun absolutely couldn’t avoid this strike of his!
But this matter was completely beyond expectation. Crimson Scorpion’s claw with all of his strength completely grabbed air, following closely he felt a burst of hard to endure pain in the pit of his stomach. The moment Xu Yun dodged his fist already rose high to severely strike the center of Crimson Scorpion’s body!
Crimson Scorpion was blasted flying out by the boom instantly – the flash inside his eyes still disbelief! He, who had eaten the Yin-Yang Pill, had strength that was already entirely upgraded to the Ultra Elite realm. How could he be hit by a 1st-tier elite that shouldn’t have been able to withstand a single blow?
*~Clang——!* Crimson Scorpion’s body fell down heavily on the ground, the corners of his mouth of his mouth flowed out a scarlet path.
Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The expression in Crimson Scorpion eyes just a moment ago lost its aura of tyranny, and his expression was full of shock. Being hit was already a difficult matter to believe, however this fist unexpectedly could seriously injure him, and made him even more unable to comprehend.
