Chapter 326: Admit Defeat?
Taking a step back to diffuse the force, Zhao Biao took a deep breath and spoke to Lin Feng, his face grim.
"Oh? And if I don't show you any respect, what can you do about it?"
At these words, Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, sizing up Zhao Biao with great interest as if lost in thought.
Zhao Biao was choked with fury.
'This kid is far too arrogant. True, he was just the leader of an underground force in the Mortal Realm, which certainly didn't put him on the big stage.'
'But at the very least, he was at the Late Stage of Innate. Did this kid really think he didn't have any tricks up his sleeve?!'
The fact that the kid was still so arrogant even after Zhao Biao had revealed his identity made him angrier the more he thought about it. He couldn't help but snort coldly, "Kid, I don't care what kind of big shot you are. I've lost to you today, and I, Zhao Biao, will admit defeat."
"I won't pursue this matter any further. I only ask that you let me leave. I guarantee that I will never make a move against you or your people in the future!"
"Heh!"
Lin Feng sneered and shook his head at Zhao Biao. "Your offer is quite good. If you had been this way from the start, you wouldn't have to die by my hand today."
With that, he took a step forward, his speed reaching its peak as he shot forward like a bolt of lightning to close the distance!
'You really want to kill me?!'
Zhao Biao's eyes narrowed, his heart pounding wildly. This kid's strength was far beyond his expectations!
Then, Lin Feng threw a punch, his fist leaving a trail of afterimages.
Zhao Biao's pupils shrank. In a flash of thought, he gritted his teeth, his hands moving to instantly slip a pair of Silver Arm Guards onto his forearms as he met the attack head-on!
BANG!
The two fists collided, unleashing a terrifying amount of force.
Lin Feng remained perfectly still, but Zhao Biao let out a muffled grunt, his feet digging into the ground as he slid backward for several meters before he barely managed to stabilize himself.
'Hiss! Such incredible power!'
Standing in place, Lin Feng slowly retracted his aura. His right hand trembled faintly a few times; evidently, that last punch had caused him a bit of pain as well.
With Lin Feng's current strength, that single punch was enough to shatter a massive boulder, yet his opponent had blocked it simply by being pushed back a few steps!
"Kid, I'll give you one more chance. Leave now, and I'll let bygones be bygones."
The look in Zhao Biao's eyes had changed when he looked at Lin Feng again. He had never imagined his opponent would be such a tough customer.
He was certain that if he hadn't been prepared, even if he could have dodged that last punch, he probably would have been injured!
Moreover, his opponent's power was too immense; he had no absolute confidence he could defeat him!
Most critically, for Lin Feng to have such strength, his background had to be so powerful it defied belief.
That was why he had chosen to compromise!
"Oh? Let bygones be bygones?"
A playful smirk touched Lin Feng's lips as he spoke nonchalantly.
"Alright. But since your men were the ones who attacked me first, how about this: you let me break your limbs and shatter your Elastic Dantian. Then we'll call it even, what do you say?"
"You!"
Hearing this, Zhao Biao's face instantly turned livid. He never imagined Lin Feng would utter such words!
'This is simply preposterous!'
"Kid, don't you dare think there's nothing I can do to you!"
Zhao Biao stared at Lin Feng, his gaze incomparably cold. In the face of Lin Feng's unyielding attitude, he had already decided to kill him at any cost to eliminate this future threat!
'Otherwise, he'll become a major scourge in the future!'
'Not only is Lin Feng immensely powerful, but he's also famous at such a young age. The consequences of letting him grow stronger are unimaginable!'
"Go ahead and try. I guarantee you'll regret it."
Lin Feng gave Zhao Biao an indifferent glance and then spoke faintly.
"Hmph!"
Seeing Lin Feng's nonchalance, Zhao Biao roared in anger, "If you won't accept a toast, you'll be forced to drink a forfeit! You little bastard, go to hell!"
With that, he shot forward, turning into a black shadow that rushed toward Lin Feng. At the same time, with a flick of his right hand, a dagger abruptly appeared out of thin air!
The blade of the dagger gleamed with a ghastly cold light, as if it could slice through the very void.
At the same time, the temperature around Zhao Biao plummeted, as if it were the dead of winter, so cold that even he couldn't help but shiver.
Immediately after, Zhao Biao closed the distance rapidly, right hand gripping the dagger, and slashed at Lin Feng's neck.
This was a killing move. If it landed, even if Lin Feng were a whole level stronger, he would die right then and there!
SWOOSH!
The moment the dagger struck, Lin Feng's body twisted, and as agile as a fish in water, he dodged Zhao Biao's attack.
"You're fast, I'll give you that. But that's all," Zhao Biao sneered. He then stomped a foot on the ground, launching himself into the air. He flipped and unleashed a sweeping kick with terrifying momentum!
CRACK!
The immense force of the kick cracked the air, creating a deafening sonic boom. The resulting gust of wind sent Lin Feng's robes fluttering wildly.
"Hmph! Petty tricks. I'll humor you for a bit."
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
The next moment, he tapped his toes on the ground and instantly leaped into the air. Then, twisting his body, he delivered a spinning kick like a flood dragon emerging from the sea. A massive wave of power swept out, slamming right into the incoming leg!
BOOM!
A heavy impact rang out as Zhao Biao was sent flying by the kick. He slammed hard against a wall, causing the entire structure to collapse!
As Zhao Biao struggled out of the rubble, his face was twisted in a savage expression.
He never thought that he, a dignified Late Stage of Innate Martial Artist, would be forced into such a pathetic state by a junior.
What humiliated Zhao Biao even more was that Lin Feng still wore a casual expression, as if he didn't see him as a threat at all.
"Damn it, this really is pissing me off!"
Zhao Biao slowly rose to his feet, his face twisting into a ferocious scowl.
He flexed his wrists and ankles, then cracked a bloodthirsty smile.
"Kid, I'm going to use my ultimate technique to kill you. Are you ready?"
Hearing Zhao Biao's threat, Lin Feng merely shot him a disdainful glance and said flatly, "No need. You should just bring out your trump card. Otherwise, you won't even get a chance to use it."
With that, he started walking toward Zhao Biao, exuding an aura of utter dominance, as if he had no equal in the entire world!
"You're courting death!"
Zhao Biao roared. The next moment, his muscles bulged and his skin instantly turned dark red, like a glowing-hot branding iron. Even his face became covered in crimson patterns, making him look as if he was about to burst into flames.
As his aura intensified, Zhao Biao's frame grew even more imposing. His already robust body seemed to expand by a full circle!
