CHAPTER 1049: CHAPTER 1049: CLEAN AND DECISIVE!

He Yunshan and the others shuddered all over when they saw the power of the two deputy ministers joining forces.

Including He Yunshan, several team leaders were all in the Early Holy Realm of cultivation, and each had been through countless battles.

Although their realm wasn’t as high as the two deputy ministers, their combat experience was not lacking in the slightest.

At this moment, seeing the angle of Jia Guang and Lin Yinfly’s attack and its fierce momentum, they immediately judged that even a master in the Holy Realm Complete would not fare well against their combined assault.

For a moment, everyone looked at Zhou Yu with mocking eyes.

It seemed they already envisioned Zhou Yu being beaten to a pulp and begging for mercy.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Jia Guang and Lin Yinfly’s offensive had already reached Zhou Yu.

Yet Zhou Yu, at the instant the attack approached, suddenly shuddered all over, as a blood-gold Golden Cauldron Phantom abruptly appeared.

Buzz, buzz!

Two low sounds followed one after the other.

Lin Yinfly’s Sword Light first struck Zhou Yu’s Body-Protecting Golden Cauldron. With a slight tremor, the cold light on Lin Yinfly’s scimitar was directly shattered by the Golden Cauldron.

In an instant, Lin Yinfly’s face turned extremely shocked.

It must be known that this sword had utilized almost eighty percent of his power, and he had once used this sword to kill a master in the Mid-Holy Realm.

But now, he couldn’t even break Zhou Yu’s defense?

And at this moment, Jia Guang’s punch forcefully struck.

Similarly, this seemingly ferocious punch, when it landed on Zhou Yu’s Protective Golden Cauldron, didn’t cause much of a ripple.

Instead, Jia Guang himself had his wrist tremble, and he staggered back several steps.

"Impossible!!!"

Jia Guang barely steadied his form before he exclaimed in loss.

This punch was fiercer than Lin Yinfly’s, yet the outcome was no different.

How could he possibly accept this?

And then, Zhou Yu casually spoke:

"Since you both have made your move first, now it’s my turn."

With that, a terrifying burst of Gang Jin emerged from Zhou Yu.

Seeing this, Lin Yinfly’s expression changed dramatically. Without a second thought, he immediately retreated.

But in the next moment, Zhou Yu vanished like a ghost right before his eyes.

After a brief moment of shock, Lin Yinfly instantly sensed a chilling killing intent coming from behind him. Years of combat instinct had him instinctively perform a turning flying knife move.

His scimitar, like lightning, struck a blurry shadow behind him.

Before Lin Yinfly could revel in the moment, he saw the shadow directly being shattered by the Sword Light.

"Not good!"

Lin Yinfly immediately realized something was amiss.

But it was too late.

Only to see Zhou Yu’s form quickly appear to his left side, followed by a raised fist.

Lin Yinfly had no chance to react before being struck by the punch.

Bang!

Lin Yinfly only felt an unimaginable force assaulting him, rendering him powerless to resist, and spewing blood as he flew sideways.

From Zhou Yu’s spoken words to Lin Yinfly’s blood-spraying defeat, the entire process took less than three seconds.

Seeing Lin Yinfly’s fate, Jia Guang’s face drastically changed.

At that moment, he realized he had completely underestimated Zhou Yu’s strength.

However, at that point, he had no room for regret.

Jia Guang made a quick decision, seizing the golden opportunity of Zhou Yu’s punch sending Lin Yinfly flying with his back turned. Jia Guang activated his cultivation technique, and instantly, his form expanded enormously.

Then, Jia Guang punched through the air, aiming for Zhou Yu’s back.

That terrifying Gang Jin emanated from his fist like a shockwave blasting out.

However, just as it seemed Zhou Yu would be struck, he disappeared again the next moment.

Boom!

Jia Guang’s punch relentlessly slammed into Zhou Yu’s previous stand, forcefully creating a pit in the hard bluestone ground.

Seeing his punch hit emptily, Jia Guang’s face changed suddenly, and he immediately recalled Zhou Yu’s defeat of Lin Yinfly.

In that split second, he realized he had lost the initiative, and even if he turned to fight, the outcome would be like Lin Yinfly’s.

Hence, Jia Guang fiercely decided and immediately executed a Lean Back Defense.

That massive body was like a small mountain, pressing backward with force.

However, in the next moment, he saw numerous dense Dragon-shaped Qi emerge.

Bang!

Jia Guang’s body was directly overwhelmed.

For a moment, the entire martial stage shook violently, with power scattering everywhere.

The huge commotion came quickly and faded just as swiftly.

A few seconds later, the dust settled.

Only to see Jia Guang already lying on the ground, drenched in blood, with a look of pain, his body trembling incessantly.

At that moment, all the team leaders were stunned.

It was as if they had been petrified, not moving, staring dumbfounded at the martial stage.

"..."

Is this real?

The two deputy ministers couldn’t even withstand a single move from Zhou Yu and were defeated heavily?

This was worlds apart from what they had expected.

For a moment, everyone’s minds seemed to crash.

And then, Zhou Yu’s effortless and gentle gaze swept towards them.

"If anyone else wishes to try, you’re all welcome to come up."

"Today, Hu City Martial Pavilion has no other tasks, the only job is to make all you self-righteous Pavilion leaders think a little harder."
