Starting with a beautiful woman's private doctor
Chapter 218: A Successful Counterattack Is Not Always a Good Thing
Compared to these lowly onlookers, the expressions of the masters present were truly solemn.
Yan Zonghan's strength is beyond doubt, but Chu Nan's response is even more surprising.
Every move was executed flawlessly, and he could even change his moves and counterattack in the blink of an eye.
If it were just an ordinary battle between grandmasters, it would be fine, but the opponent is Yan Zonghan, who is known for getting stronger as the battle progresses!
Could it be that Chu Nan's cultivation technique also gets stronger the more he fights?
If that's the case, then this battle of grandmasters will definitely not end so quickly!
Just when everyone thought the tug-of-war would continue, Chu Nan got what he was waiting for.
Yan Zonghan threw a right punch, but his recovery was half a beat slower than usual.
His killing intent technique had just completed a surge, and his aura needed to return to its original state.
That half-beat gap might be too good for an ordinary person to grasp, but... his opponent was Chu Nan!
Chu Nan extended his right palm, and crimson flames erupted from his palm without warning.
Unlike all the previous moves that transitioned from gold to gold first, the firelight exploded directly.
The fire lotus flew out of his hand and suddenly expanded in mid-air, transforming into a giant fireball with a diameter of over three meters, which slammed into Yan Zonghan's chest.
The lotus is consumed by fire!
Yan Zonghan's pupils suddenly contracted.
He didn't have time to parry; he only had time to push his breastplate to its limit.
The moment the fire lotus struck the armor, crimson light engulfed Yan Zonghan entirely.
His feet left the ground, as if he had been hit head-on by a speeding train, and he was sent flying backward.
The grayish-white breastplate emitted a piercing "sizzle" sound as it was scorched by the fire lotus, its surface burning red-hot, and the demon head pattern on its chest twisted and deformed.
Yan Zonghan did a somersault in the air, his back slammed onto the ground, and he slid for more than ten meters before coming to a stop.
"..."
The hand warmer in Jin Shouye's hand fell to the ground, rolled twice, and scattered embers all over the ground.
Kim Soo-jung's mouth was agape, his jaw seemingly dislocated. Kim Sung-yeol froze, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.
"The High Priest was... defeated?"
The voice of a member of a collateral branch of the Jin family trembled.
No one answered him, because everyone was looking at Yan Zonghan's chest. A palm-sized scorch mark had appeared on his greyish-white breastplate.
The nail plate was burned red, the edges curled up, and the skin under the nail could even be vaguely seen.
"Chu Nan seized the opportunity and the Fire Lotus hit, but the Heart Guard blocked it and didn't hurt Grandmaster Yan."
"Chu Nan got lucky. Yan Zonghan's punches were too dense, and he exposed an opening. But next time, Yan Zonghan will not make the same mistake again."
"What a pity. If he had charged up his attack before striking, Yan Zonghan's armor might not have been able to withstand it."
Xia Wantang didn't understand the intricacies, but excitedly exclaimed, "Hahaha, as expected of my little cutie! I'm sure it won't be long before we're able to take down that old geezer!"
Wenbo shook his head. "Mr. Chu's attack just now was indeed beautiful, but useless."
"The protective armor absorbed most of its power, so Yan Zonghan was not seriously injured. Moreover, from now on... given Yan Zonghan's personality, he will definitely not be given a second chance."
He wasn't trying to be cynical, but Chu Nan's successful attack this time was indeed partly due to Yan Zonghan's carelessness and his cleverness.
At the same time, Gu Changfeng's voice rang out in the Jin family, "He used this move when I fought him before."
"The longer the power is built up, the greater the killing move becomes. Fortunately, the attack just now was instantaneous. If he had built up enough power before unleashing it, Yan Zonghan's breastplate would not have been able to withstand it."
Jin Jiucheng, whose expression had been grim but who remained relatively calm, suddenly frowned. "You mean, if the Grand Elder had built up his strength for a little longer, he would have lost?"
Gu Changfeng nodded. "Theoretically, it's the professional one, but Chu Nan simply didn't have that much time at that moment."
"This move may seem like Brother Yan suffered a loss, but in reality, he has already lost the opportunity to build up his strength in front of Yan Xiong."
Wangjing Yuanshang, Yan Zonghan looked down at the scorch marks on his chest, gently rubbed his fingers on the red-hot nail surface, and covered it with gray-white true energy, repairing the shattered armor inch by inch.
He raised his head and looked at Chu Nan, his eyes showing no anger, but rather a serious expression.
That attack just now must have been the fire-attribute move Brother Gu mentioned, right?
Yan Zonghan initially thought that Gu Changfeng's two types of true energy were just different manifestations of different moves.
Whether it's gold or red, the essence is the same.
But Chu Nan's instantaneous release of the Lotus of Departure Fire made him realize that these were indeed two completely different types of true energy!
A key characteristic of the advancement from Grandmaster to Grandmaster is the addition of attributes to True Qi.
In theory, once true qi is endowed with an attribute, it will never change. Then, one can absorb natural treasures containing the same attribute to enhance true qi.
But Chu Nan has two different attributes...
It seems this kid's background is even deeper than I imagined!
Yan Zonghan slowly raised his hand, and grayish-white true energy surged out from his palm, rapidly compressing in the air.
The aura grew denser and more solid, eventually transforming into a long, narrow blade.
The blade is entirely grayish-white, with a jagged serration along the back, and the edge is so thin it's almost transparent.
Yan Zonghan gripped the hilt of the knife, and the blade lightly sliced through the air.
An invisible blade of energy slashed across the ground, silently cutting a crack more than ten meters long!
"The Seven Killing Blade?!"
A master-level superhuman gasped in shock.
"The Seven Kill Blade! That was Yan Zonghan's signature weapon when he joined the army! Back in the Northern Frontier, he used this weapon to kill seven Grandmasters in succession!"
"Given his personality, there hasn't been anyone who could make him recreate the Seven Kill Blade for many years."
"Yan Zonghan is getting serious. I believe this decisive battle will be decided soon."
Those ordinary people and low-level superhumans were even more bewildered at this moment.
The fight just now was like a natural disaster, and now those grandmasters are saying that Yan Zonghan is only starting to get serious.
What about that catastrophe-like duel just now?
"Was that grand spectacle just a warm-up?"
"We are indeed not worthy to understand the world of grandmasters."
Jin Shouye's expression softened a bit, and he said in a low voice, "The Grand Elder used the Seven Kill Blade. That brat Chu Nan won't be smug for long."
Kim Sung-yeol also breathed a sigh of relief, clenching his fist. "That's right! The Grand Elder was just playing around earlier! Now he's getting serious!"
Xia Wantang turned her head and asked Wen Bo in a low voice, "Is that old guy's knife very powerful?"
Wenbo nodded, his tone much heavier than before, "Yan Zonghan comes from a military background. Although his hand-to-hand combat skills are fierce, his true expertise lies in weaponry."
"The fact that he conjured the Seven Kill Blade shows that he has already regarded Mr. Chu as a true opponent."
Upon hearing Wenbo's analysis, Jiang Yingxue clenched her hands tightly.
Although Chu Nan managed to turn the tables on Yan Zonghan once, the previous fights seemed to be evenly matched.
But in reality, Chu Nan kept dodging and rarely confronted them head-on.
Based on Jiang Yingxue's understanding of him, the reason he didn't choose to confront him head-on was most likely because he couldn't afford to.
Now that Yan Zonghan is completely serious, Chu Nan will probably have an even greater difficulty in dealing with him!
