Chapter 469, Direct Confrontation

Translator: Silavin

 

In response to Xiang Zidi’s shouts, Qin Yichen merely glanced at him once, and the latter’s strange cries immediately stopped!

 

After Qin Yichen withdrew his gaze, Xiang Zidi’s face flushed with shame and anger. As the Personal Disciple of a Deacon, he had actually been intimidated by someone even younger than himself!

 

“Master!” Xiang Zidi glared fiercely at Qin Yichen, quietly appealing to Dai Qingshan for help.

 

Dai Qingshan nodded. Since he had been in Positively Tranquil City for some time, he was not particularly familiar with the situation within the Sect. Regarding the matter of Qin Yichen killing three Elders, he merely assumed that those Elders had been careless and suffered from an ambush.

 

Suddenly, Dai Qingshan’s expression became extremely ferocious. In his cold eyes, there was even a trace of excitement. If he could eliminate this young man, just thinking about the Sect’s reward was enough to make his heart pound with excitement.

 

“Young man, your life ends here!” In the next instant, Dai Qingshan roared, and powerful Yuan Energy surged forth. His form transformed into an afterimage, and he struck with a fist carrying terrifying Yuan Energy waves towards Qin Yichen.

 

“So fast! So powerful. Can he dodge it?”

 

Seeing this display of power, the many guests in the hall all had shock surging in their eyes. This level of might was perhaps something even Mid Stage Martial Kings might not be able to withstand!

 

It seemed that Dai Qingshan had no intention of delaying and was serious from the start!

 

However, almost contrary to everyone’s expectations, faced with Dai Qingshan’s vicious punch, Qin Yichen showed no intention of dodging. Instead, he also raised his arm and, after a brief stretch, threw a punch in return.

 

“Has he gone mad!?” Seeing this, many people exclaimed in shock. It seemed Qin Yichen was not only verbally arrogant beyond measure but even acted in such a manner.

 

Only, they did not know that when one’s strength reaches a level that can crush everything before them, such an attitude was not arrogance, but confidence!

 

*Bang!* With a tremendous noise, a terrifying shock wave spread out, blowing the surrounding tables and chairs to pieces.

 

Under this punch, Qin Yichen’s figure could not help but retreat three steps, while in contrast, Dai Qingshan only stepped back once! The difference between them was very clear!

 

*Swoosh!* Before Qin Yichen could catch his breath, Dai Qingshan stomped his foot, and his figure transformed into an afterimage charging forward. Faced with his fierce offensive, Qin Yichen showed no intention of evading, still advancing to meet him head-on.

 

*Bang! Bang! Bang!*

 

A series of tremendous noises continuously spread out. In just a few breaths’ time, the two had exchanged blows at lightning speed four or five times.

 

And in these exchanges, without exception, Dai Qingshan had gained a slight advantage, with Qin Yichen being somewhat at a disadvantage.

 

*Bang!* After once again sending Qin Yichen back several steps, Dai Qingshan paused briefly.

 

“Hehe, young man, now do you understand the consequences of offending our Northern Depths Sect? Since you’ve dared to deliver yourself to our doorstep today, be obedient and leave your life here!”

 

Dai Qingshan rubbed his somewhat numb fist. Although the fact that the latter could persist for so long under his full-strength offensive made him somewhat surprised, this was not enough to give him a reason to stop!

 

Faced with Dai Qingshan’s ferocious smile, Qin Yichen shook his head helplessly, showing no intention of wasting words with him.

 

“Damned brat. Still dare to be so arrogant!?” Looking at Qin Yichen’s somewhat mocking gaze, a flame of inexplicable anger rose in Dai Qingshan’s heart.

 

“It seems there’s nothing much else to see…”

 

“At such a young age, being able to withstand Deacon Dai Qingshan for so long is already quite impressive!”

 

“What a pity. If given more time to grow, perhaps the Northern Depths Sect would really have no way to deal with him, but he is foolish enough to deliver himself to their doorstep…”

 

At this moment, a wave of clamour rose in the hall. Although Qin Yichen’s attitude was firm, it seemed this was not of much use.

 

*Crack!* Amidst these voices of clamour, suddenly a subtle sound quietly emerged.

 

Qin Yichen’s body could be seen trembling slightly as Yuan Energy surged forth from his body. At the place where he stood, small cracks spread out from beneath his feet.

 

The fierce Yuan Energy rose steadily, and a powerful aura completely erupted from within his body at this moment. Under this aura, the surrounding people who had been ridiculing him gradually lowered their voices, and finally, fell completely silent.

 

Looking at Qin Yichen whose entire body’s aura was continuously rising, Dai Qingshan frowned, a trace of astonishment appearing in his eyes.

 

Just now, Qin Yichen had not used any Yuan Energy! He was relying solely on his physical body to contend with him!!

 

If that was the case, then it meant that this youngster’s physical body was even stronger than that of an ordinary Mid Stage Martial King!

 

The corners of Dai Qingshan’s mouth and those guests could not help but twitch.

 

This steadily rising aura finally stopped at the Peak of the Early Stage Martial King Realm.

 

“Pity. This intensity still isn’t enough. It falls a bit short.” Sensing the gulf between them, Qin Yichen shook his head, murmuring with dissatisfaction.

 

His low murmur, in this silence, was clearly heard by everyone.

 

[The intensity is not enough? Still a bit short? Could it be that he was deliberately acting that way before, to try and break through!?]

 

To be so arrogant when facing a Deacon of the Northern Depths Sect…

 

If they had not seen it with their own eyes, who would believe it?

 

“Why are you putting on airs!? Brat, no matter how strong you are, today, you can only leave behind your corpse!” Hearing the whispers all around, Dai Qingshan’s old face reddened with shame, and he immediately snarled.

 

*Bang!* This time, as soon as Dai Qingshan’s words fell, before he could make a move, Qin Yichen opposite him suddenly stomped his foot hard. With an intense sonic boom, his figure suddenly transformed into a series of afterimages. In just the time of a single breath, he flashed to Dai Qingshan’s side.

 

Looking at Qin Yichen whose speed had increased manifold in an instant, Dai Qingshan’s expression changed suddenly. His pupils contracted as he stared hard at the fist that was gradually expanding in his vision. On that fist, there seemed to be flashes of lightning.

 

In the next moment, an aura even more fierce than Qin Yichen’s suddenly erupted from Dai Qingshan’s body, quickly gathering between his palms.

 

“Die! Ocean Overturning Palm!” Dai Qingshan roared, pushing both palms forward. A vast wave of Yuan Energy swept forth, fiercely striking towards Qin Yichen.

 

*Boom!…* Under this wave of Yuan Energy, the solid hall floor cracked with a series of fissures. Some of the stronger individuals who were a bit closer could not withstand this pressure and were sent flying back, spitting blood.
