Chapter 1340: Chapter 1335: Conflict
Bam!
The sound of the two colliding was so piercing.
No one among the spectators said a word.
They were all briefly dumbfounded.
He Junren got hit again?
And right in front of Jin Mountain?
This... Is this bodyguard a madman or what?
Only a madman would dare to disregard Jin Mountain like this!
What will Jin Mountain think?
With this in mind, everyone’s gaze turned to a certain spot.
There, Jin Mountain’s face was cold, long, narrow eyes twitching continuously, hiding a raging fury.
He spent half his life being flattered by everyone, like a dog.
And now, not only was someone defying him, but also throwing He Junren aside right in front of him.
Isn’t this a slap in the face?
In anger, Jin Mountain shouted, "People, come!"
Amidst the roar, many guards in light armor surrounding the hall closed in together.
In this area, only a few people remained along with a field of guards.
The guards were about to surround Qin Hao tightly.
Everyone’s heart held mixed emotions.
They admired Qin Hao’s courage to face power unafraid, and felt sympathy for the death he was about to face.
"Alas, though he’s brave, ultimately, he still has to die!"
"What a pity, he still looks quite talented."
"After his death, Qiao Jiaying will likely face He Junren’s wrath, and that’s an even worse fate."
"Truly a great loss!"
One person and then another declared almost unanimously that Qin Hao would die.
On the other side, Qin Hao himself was quite composed.
He extended a comforting hand behind Qiao Jiaying, which eased some of her fear.
Looking at his imposing back, she felt the surrounding enemies were less intimidating.
"Nothing to worry about. Mister is Invincible; he will surely overcome this challenge, I believe!"
Qiao Jiaying whispered to herself, her face gradually gaining confidence.
In a situation full of killing intent, Jin Mountain’s twitching brows and eyes did not stop, and he shouted, "Do you have any last words?"
Originally, he intended to spare Qin Hao.
But now, the intent to kill was set.
Such a reckless lunatic must die!
Facing the threat, Qin Hao was very calm, "I actually wanted to spare you."
"What?" Jin Mountain was momentarily cold, but understanding Qin Hao’s meaning, he couldn’t help but laugh angrily: "You mean you’re not planning to spare me now?"
"Yes," Qin Hao replied seriously.
"Hahaha!"
Jin Mountain laughed, furious, and after finishing laughing, he yelled with a distorted face: "It’s the first time I’ve been so entertained by trash like this. Remember you well, so, die!"
With his roar, the guards moved in response, gripping the hilts of their swords, ready to draw and cut.
In this critical moment, Qin Hao, as steady as a mountain, moved.
He struck out a single fist, the speed was optimal, much quicker than the guards drawing their swords.
His fist seemed to appear out of thin air, appearing to be three meters away from Jin Mountain, with a guard in between.
However, a white fist shadow, visible to the naked eye, formed in mid-air, hitting that guard.
Bam!
That guard spat blood and shot backward, colliding with Jin Mountain.
"Inner Strength and External Defense? Grandmaster Realm?"
Jin Mountain squinted his eyes slightly, surprised, as his hand swept aside.
Swish!
A burst of Powerful Qi sent that guard flying away, and Jin Mountain resolved the crisis.
In just half a second, the two indirectly exchanged blows once.
This twist left the guards stunned for a moment.
Taking advantage of this gap, Qin Hao tapped his foot, transforming into a shadow reaching Jin Mountain’s front.
"What!"
Jin Mountain was surprised that Qin Hao moved so quickly, feeling even more surprised.
The strength of a Grandmaster was one thing, but such speed? Could this person also have the capability of the Cyan Cloud List?
"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"
As Qin Hao approached Jin Mountain, the sound of metal clashing erupted.
It turned out that the guards’ swords were all unsheathed.
Amongst the sword light, Qin Hao hadn’t even struck, but had to be forced back five steps, leaving the range to attack Jin Mountain.
"So strong!" The sudden engagement amazed the surrounding spectators.
Clearly surrounded by people, yet able to advance and retreat so calmly.
Not only martial arts, but Qin Hao’s mentality was also remarkable.
"Hmph! Turns out you’re also a Grandmaster, no wonder you’re so arrogant!"
Jin Mountain wasn’t intimidated by Qin Hao’s strength.
In his eyes, Qin Hao had some skill, but was limited to just that.
A Grandmaster, a being that could stir the mundane Mortal World.
But in the Ancient Martial World, it’s just an ordinary level.
The world of Ancient Martial Arts is divided into four tiers.
Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow.
Yellow Tier is the lowest, but in the Mortal World, it’s an outstanding Grandmaster.
And the so-called Grandmaster is merely the Profound Realm.
In the Ancient Martial World, the young generation who can enter the Cyan Cloud List, nearly all are Grandmasters.
Those at the forefront, top talents, even reaching the Peak of Grandmaster.
Even the top three monstrous individuals, they are all Earth Realm experts.
Individuals like them are called Divine Realm in the Mortal World, akin to Celestial Gods.
Jin Mountain is twenty-eight years old, neither young nor old, but his realm is profoundly advanced, firmly in the late Profound Tier.
Therefore, he assumed Qin Hao was similar and didn’t think much of it.
"Hey, even if we’re of similar realm, what’s the point? This is my territory after all!"
The more Jin Mountain thought, the more assured he became, believing that although Qin Hao’s identity was exposed, he couldn’t escape death.
Only dying a little later.
"You seem very confident." Qin Hao’s mouth carried a playful smirk.
"This isn’t confidence, but arrogance," Jin Mountain’s mouth curled upward, coldly saying, "What’s your skill worth? Now I’m standing in front of you, and you can’t do anything to me!"
"Oh."
Qin Hao nodded lightly, "I can’t do anything to you, I can only send you flying."
"Send me flying?" Jin Mountain deliberately laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I’ve seen many who don’t know their own capabilities, but you’re the first fool I’ve seen like this. Aren’t you arrogant? Come, hit me!"
"This is what you said yourself." Qin Hao’s tone carried a trace of melancholy, "If that’s the case, I can only exert a bit more effort."
"Exert a bit more effort?"
"Could it be this guy hasn’t used his full strength? Nonsense!"
Jin Mountain couldn’t believe it, yet the reality was that Qin Hao in front of him vanished.
He just disappeared from plain sight, as mysterious and enchanting as a ghost!
"What! He’s gone!!"
"How is this possible! He was clearly right here just now!"
"How can a person disappear into thin air? Is this fantasy or martial arts!"
Amidst the discussion, startled cries rang out.
"Look!" Everyone’s eyes focused on Jin Mountain’s back, and immediately, fear and disbelief appeared on their faces.
Because at this moment, a person unexpectedly appeared behind Jin Mountain, smiling with eyes full of teasing.
This person was none other than the vanished Qin Hao!
