Chapter 528: Chapter 0528: Battle of the Hegemon
The sound of Ye Xunhuan’s arrogant voice echoed in his ears, and Anthony’s expression instantly turned sinister.
"Marshal, if you want to make a move, I can oblige," Anthony said with a face full of chill and a tone of coldness, "However, before we start, I need to remind you!"
"Speak your piece if you have something to say, or just fart if that’s what you’re about!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s disrespectful and arrogant words again, a fierce light flashed instantly in Anthony’s sapphire-like eyes, and the anger in his heart surged!
"You should consider your wife right now, and see if she is as safe as you think she is!"
After hearing Anthony’s words, Ye Xunhuan let out a cold laugh, "Anthony, why are all of you the same? Only knowing how to take hostages?"
"But do you think I would continue to suffer the same loss after having been tricked once?"
Seeing the smile reflected in Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, Anthony’s heart trembled violently, and a bad feeling suddenly emerged, "What do you mean?"
"First try to see whether you can contact your people or not!"
When Ye Xunhuan learned that people from the Dark Council were on the move, he suspected that the president of the Dark Council, Anthony, was also here.
He just didn’t expect this guy to be hiding so well and playing his cards so cleverly.
To verify the authenticity of the Taiji Seal, he watched indifferently as two of his subordinates were brutally killed.
Ye Xunhuan came to kill Miyamoto Kojiro because firstly, he deserved to die, and secondly, to see if anyone else was lurking in the background, ready to play the game of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!
Sure enough, he had expected correctly; there indeed was a giant oriole lurking behind.
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Anthony’s face slightly changed, and then he tried contacting his subordinates, only to find that he couldn’t reach them at all!
For a moment, Anthony’s already sinister face became somewhat more ferocious.
To ensure the success of his plan, he had lost Loren, a Superpower User, in an attempt to verify the authenticity of the Taiji Seal before making a move on Ye Xunhuan, aiming for the mantis stalking the cicada sequence.
But who would have thought, on this day when he constantly hunted eagles, an eagle would peck at his eye!
"Can’t get in touch, can you?"
Although Ye Xunhuan was smiling, his smile became colder and colder, as did the murderous intent radiating from him, making him seem like an unsheathed peerless sword, chilling and sharp.
When Ye Xunhuan went to find Miyamoto Kojiro, in order to avoid another mishap, he had contacted Liu Qingcheng to ask her to protect Qiu Ruoxi’s safety in the shadows.
If nothing went wrong, it would be a perfect ending; if something unexpected happened, with Liu Qingcheng there, the likelihood of Qiu Ruoxi being taken hostage again was slim, unless Anthony personally intervened!
Everything was developing according to the script Ye Xunhuan had envisioned.
"The Marshal, as expected of a marshal, still had an ace up his sleeve."
Even though Anthony had been outmaneuvered by Ye Xunhuan, he still admired him deeply.
Indeed, none who had become overlords of the underworld were fools, and none had conquered purely with brute force!
"Now, you should be able to tell me whether we fight or you get lost, right?" Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, sharp as blades, fixed intensely on Anthony.
"Since I’m here, how can I not experience the Marshal’s prowess for myself, to see what gives you the right to stand on equal footing with me?"
"If that’s the case, then let’s fight!"
Saying this, the murderous intent on Ye Xunhuan became intense, and his entire being resembled a demon who had climbed out from the depths of hell.
"Wait!" Anthony urgently interjected, "Before that, there is something I still don’t understand. Could you tell me how you found me?"
"Speak!"
"How did you discover me?"
"When Miyamoto Kojiro was executing his Chain Cross Slash on me, a trace of your aura leaked out!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Anthony’s face showed a look of realization!
"In that case, let’s fight, Marshal!" Anthony said sternly, "If I lose, I will immediately retreat. If you lose, give me the Taiji Symbol!"
No sooner had Anthony’s words fallen than some rusty iron rods lying nearby eerily began to move on their own, and at the same time, they flew towards Ye Xunhuan at high speed.
Ye Xunhuan’s pupils contracted sharply at this sight: "Telekinesis, you are actually one of the strongest mental power Superpower Users!"
Those with mental powers are revered among Superpower Users as God’s chosen, extremely formidable. They can manipulate everything around them with their powerful telekinetic abilities.
Moreover, the stronger the telekinesis, the more terrifying the objects they can control!
Just as the character in the movie, "God of Gamblers," mental power Superpower Users can open doors with their minds and even cause your thoughts to become confused, resulting in hallucinations!
It could be said to be extremely horrifying.
Now that Anthony had launched a telekinetic sneak attack on Ye Xunhuan, how could Ye Xunhuan not be surprised?
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Everything around seemed as if it were being lifted by an invisible hand in the darkness, howling as it flew towards Ye Xunhuan.
The whole scene was a chaos, as if at that moment gravity had lost its effect on everything, causing them to float mid-air.
At this moment, it seemed as if all things in the world could be manipulated by Anthony’s will, all at his command!
Qianhuan Lanqin were both wide-eyed at this eerie spectacle, their faces filled with disbelief.
This was just the beginning of the fight, and already it had such momentum; what would come next...
Is this truly the might of one of the top ten overlords of the underground world?
The next moment, Ye Xunhuan’s sword in his right hand suddenly emitted a blinding light, almost as if a dragon’s roar could be heard, and then he rapidly swung several strikes. A series of fierce Sword Qi, like roaring dragons, emitted roaring sounds, destroying all objects that were flying at Ye Xunhuan!
At this moment, the entire scene was like a battle of gods and demons!
Watching the combat between the two, Qianhuan Lanqin couldn’t help but conceive a terrifying thought.
What kind of destruction would ensue if the top ten overlords of the underground world fought in a major city?
Anthony, by controlling everything with his thoughts, and Ye Xunhuan, each strike as if it had the power to shatter heavens and earth—if these two were to fight in bustling areas, how many innocent people would die in vain? How many buildings would be destroyed by them?
No wonder there’s a mutual restraint among the top ten overlords of the underground world, forbidding each other from causing chaos in bustling areas!
This is truly terrifying.
If Ye Xunhuan had displayed such fearsome combat power from the beginning, then they...
Just at this thought, a chill suddenly rose from the heart, spreading quickly throughout the body!
