This…
Everyone in the Jianghu was stunned, looking at each other with disbelief.
He actually caught it?!
How is that possible!
Everyone’s minds were in turmoil, looking incredulously at the person in the kasaya, who remained composed.
Some had guessed he might be able to block Song Yuanqiao’s attack, but certainly not with such ease and composure!
Fahai stood there, his expression calm, without even a trace of injury on his body, having squarely blocked Song Yuanqiao’s full-power punch!
Who is Song Yuanqiao!
The Sect Leader of Wudang, the head of the Seven Heroes, he has roamed the Jianghu for decades and is a recognized Grandmaster expert, rumored to be approaching the Grandmaster Realm, and even has hopes of reaching the Heaven-Defying Realm!
And Fahai?
Although his reputation has recently grown, it has only been for a short time.
He is merely in the Innate Late Stage, and his strength is insignificant compared to an elder expert like Song Yuanqiao.
Furthermore, he is an abandoned disciple who was expelled from his sect.
From both status and cultivation, he simply cannot compare to Song Yuanqiao.
Yet, Fahai truly accomplished what everyone thought impossible, directly blocking Song Yuanqiao’s punch!
“This isn’t real, is it!”
“How could this be.”
Finally, someone came to their senses, their lips trembling.
“That’s the Sect Leader of Wudang…”
Whispers arose, and the scene became noisy for a moment.
Wanwan’s delicate, fair little face first showed surprise, then her eyes sparkled like they held stars, gazing unblinkingly at Fahai.
“I knew it, Little Monk Fahai is definitely the most amazing.”
Xuzhu swallowed hard, staring blankly at Fahai, his mind a blank.
“Senior Brother Fahai… actually took it!”
“I didn’t expect him to actually block Song Yuanqiao’s attack. It seems I misjudged again.”
Lu Xiaofeng closed his folding fan, smiling lightly, with a hint of helplessness.
“Brother Hua, it seems another world-shaking figure is about to emerge in the Jianghu.”
Hua Manlou nodded, his gaze also falling on Fahai.
“Perhaps, before long, he will surpass you and me, becoming an existence in the Jianghu that no one dares to underestimate.”
Lu Xiaofeng nodded seriously, then rubbed his mouth, which had opened in astonishment, his face feeling a little numb.
In this world, Geniuses are indeed more astonishing than the last.
Shangguan Haitang’s heroic eyes were also full of surprise and shock.
In an instant, a thought became even firmer in her heart—she must bring Fahai under her command!
As everyone conversed in low voices, all eyes simultaneously fell on Song Qingshu.
Song Qingshu immediately found himself in an awkward situation.
He never imagined that Fahai would be so powerful, actually taking Song Yuanqiao’s attack head-on!
Song Yuanqiao also had no way to continue attacking.
Song Qingshu’s face showed disbelief, and he suddenly turned to look at Song Yuanqiao, blurting out: “Father, did you intentionally go easy?”
Intentionally?
Song Yuanqiao’s face grew even gloomier.
He did indeed want to use this opportunity to punish Fahai and get justice for his son.
But he had no intention of taking a life, so he held back some strength and did not go all out.
After all, the other party was only in the Innate Realm, while he was already in the Grandmaster Late Stage.
Once they started fighting, a slight mistake could cost a life.
Who would have thought that a junior in the Innate Realm could be so Heaven-Defying, directly blocking his palm strike!
Even more bizarre was that Fahai looked completely unharmed, his expression as relaxed as usual!
Song Yuanqiao even suspected that even if he went all out, he probably wouldn’t be able to do much to him.
The martial art Fahai displayed was unheard of and extremely overbearing.
That fierce and powerful momentum was something even the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms couldn’t compare to!
In the collision, his internal Qi and blood were subtly churning.
With Fahai having taken this palm strike, he also lost his reason to continue attacking.
He slowly exhaled a breath.
“This Little Monk truly lives up to his reputation as one of the top ten talents on the innate ranking, truly extraordinary.”
“Given time, he will surely become a Grandmaster.”
Facing Song Yuanqiao’s praise, Fahai’s expression was calm, and he did not respond.
“This palm strike today, this humble monk remembers. I will repay you in the future.”
Although he could fight Song Yuanqiao by using all his means.
The gap between them was truly vast.
Even if he exposed all his strength, the outcome was still unknown.
Moreover, this would also expose his trump cards.
It was meaningless.
Once he solves the Zhenlong Chess Game, he can inherit the Xiaoyao Sect’s ultimate techniques and absorb Wu Yazi’s Internal Energy.
At that time, it would be the moment he steps into the Grandmaster Realm!
Once he enters the Grandmaster Realm, he will truly have a foothold in the Jianghu.
By then, he will be unstoppable, sweeping across all directions!
Fahai’s words immediately caused an uproar.
Everyone present showed shocked expressions.
Someone dared to openly threaten an old Grandmaster!
Such courage was truly rare!
A hint of joy flashed in Wanwan’s eyes, as expected, she hadn’t misjudged him.
Xuzhu shook his head, thinking: “This humble monk is far from matching Senior Brother Fahai’s demeanor.”
Song Yuanqiao clearly hadn’t anticipated Fahai saying such words.
After all, the strength gap between the two was almost like a chasm.
He stared at Fahai for a moment, then said in a deep voice: “Song awaits.”
With that, he turned and left, taking the unwilling and resentful Song Qingshu with him.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Wanwan sneered: “Although Wudang is a renowned righteous sect, they are merely so-so, actually resorting to such bullying tactics.”
Fahai’s expression was calm, and he did not take this matter to heart.
“No matter. It won’t be long before this humble monk gets justice.”
“Little Monk, I believe you!”
Shangguan Haitang, hidden in the crowd, felt a slight regret.
She had originally thought that if Fahai couldn’t take Song Yuanqiao’s palm strike, she could step in to save him, making him remember her kindness.
Following that, inviting him to join the Dragon Guard Villa would be a natural progression.
Such a Heaven-Defying Genius, the Dragon Guard Villa absolutely could not miss him.
Who knew Fahai was so powerful.
Song Yuanqiao’s palm strike was actually taken head-on by him!
He truly is a Prodigy who always breaks the norm.
Shangguan Haitang couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, her interest in Fahai grew even stronger, and her resolve became even firmer.
Such a supremely talented person, no matter what, she had to bring him under her command.
After taking Song Yuanqiao’s palm strike, Fahai’s importance in her heart had already greatly increased.
Even if she had to pay a greater price, as long as Fahai could become a member of the Dragon Guard Villa, everything would be worth it.
This opportunity was missed.
It seems she can only wait for the next opportune moment.
She had already received news that Ding Chunqiu was not far from Wuliang Mountain.
At that time, if Ding Chunqiu and Fahai meet, there will definitely be a battle.
Ding Chunqiu is different from Song Yuanqiao.
Song Yuanqiao only intended to punish, but between Ding Chunqiu and Fahai, there was a true blood feud.
This battle is unavoidable.
A Grandmaster skilled in poison arts is even more troublesome than an ordinary Grandmaster Middle Stage.
At that time, Fahai will surely be in a predicament.
She would then appear to help, providing timely assistance.
Following that, if she extended an invitation, Fahai would surely not refuse.
At the same time, people in the Jianghu were discussing Fahai’s performance.
His actions shocked the entire scene!
One must know that that palm strike came from Song Yuanqiao, a Grandmaster Late Stage expert!
“Song Yuanqiao is the Sect Leader of Wudang, with extraordinary strength!”
“He holds a respected position, yet he suffered a loss at the hands of a young newcomer!”
“This matter will surely shake the Jianghu again!”
“Fahai’s ranking on the innate ranking will probably jump forward again!”
Prodigy!
This was the common sentiment of everyone.
Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou, hearing this, couldn’t help but marvel at Fahai’s stunning performance.
Lu Xiaofeng even felt an urge to befriend him and stood up.
Hua Manlou asked: “Where are you going?”
Lu Xiaofeng gazed at Fahai’s back and said: “Such a young hero is naturally worth me, Lu Xiaofeng, going to deepen our acquaintance.”
Lu Xiaofeng loved making friends the most.
