Gu Baiyi’s gaze hardened suddenly, and he pped the air.


    Boom!


    This p seemed to incite the power of the heavens and earth, causing a thunderous sound to reverberate in the air.


    One by one, the substantial palm winds shot at Xiao Shun like a volley of arrows, each carrying the power of ten thousand jun, tearing and burning the surrounding air.


    Xiao Shun swung his finger sword, the sword spouting dazzling green light, creating a windproof defensive around him.


    The battle started at a white-hot intensity.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    In the midst of the loud noises, it seemed like one could see sparks of electricity blooming in the air, like brilliant fireworks.


    Dust rose up afterward, countless bricks and cement pieces from the damaged buildings on either side of the street exploded and wreaked havoc within tens of meters.


    Gu Baiyi’s fierce palm wind swept up bricks and stone debris like a hurricane, sweeping around.


    The power generated by this debris was not less than that of a small cannonball, leaving countless deep dents on the walls on both sides. The luxury cars nearby also suffered damages.


    Themp was broken, the car ss turned into a spider-web pattern, and the body of the car was covered in scratches. The repair costs would be substantial.


    Yang Zinuo and the others watched, dumbfounded. Witnessing such a battle was a treat for any practitioner.


    This was a real showdown between masters.


    A piece of sharp brick debris hit a high-ranking member of the Old School Society right between the eyebrows. Blood sttered, and he died on the spot.


    Everyone was shocked. The scene was too brutal. They didn’t have time to check if he could be saved, and they hurriedly avoided to prevent further idental injuries.


    In a distant office building.


    A man in a gray suit, holding a cup of coffee, stood in front of the spacious and bright floor-to-ceiling windows of his office, looking inexplicably at the dust-filled city vige.


    “Hey,e and see, what’s happening there?”


    “What’s going on? What’s going on?”


    “What’s all the fuss about?”


    A few curious colleagues came over and looked around.


    The man in the suit pointed to the distance, “Over there, see? It looks like a war is happening.”


    “Oh, I know that ce, they are currently demolishing the vige, probably using explosives,” one of the colleagues exined, “nothing surprising.”


    “Do they really need to use explosives for the demolition, wouldn’t it be easier just bulldozing it?” another colleague retorted.


    “True that.”


    “Probably just dust from a demolished building. Alright, stop staring. If the boss sees us idling here, we will get scolded again.”


    Gu Baiyi’sbat skills far exceeded Xiao Shun’s expectations. Apart from his master, this was the strongest opponent he had ever encountered.


    Sessive, fierce palm winds came one after another, countless fragments of bricks and stones fell like bullets, leaving him no chance to catch his breath. He dared not to ck off; if he lost his guard, it would be aplete defeat.


    Gu Baiyi kept on attacking, one palm after another, showing no signs of fatigue on his face. It was as if he had inexhaustible energy.


    Standing more than ten meters behind Xiao Shun, Song Linger was taken aback by the scene. She had never seen such a powerful cultivator before. The strength Xiao Shun disyed was beyond her imagination, and so was Gu Baiyi’s.


    In her eyes, Xiao Shun was an invincible existence, but facing Gu Baiyi, he had no spare capacity to fight back, which was beyond her understanding.


    “I have to help my master.”


    She clenched her fists and started to walk towards the two men.


    Thud!


    A rebar half a meter long unexpectedly pierced her calf diagonally. Blood sttered, and she groaned, kneeling on the ground in pain, her face contorted in agony and her teeth gritted to stop herself from crying out.


    In a duel of masters, there was no room for mistakes. She knew Xiao Shun couldn’t be distracted at this moment.


    “I’m so useless,” she thought despairingly.


    She now realized that such a battle was not something she could participate in. Even if she stepped forward, she would only be sending herself to death, adding no help to her master, and possibly even dragging him down.


    “I have to hide, I can’t cause trouble for my master.”


    She quickly looked around. About ten meters away from her, there was a low half-wall. That must be the ce.


    Enduring the severe pain, she hunched over and stumbled towards it.


    Bang!


    A whole brick hit her back with immense force, and her slender body fell to the ground. A strong smell of blood filled her mouth.


    Cough!


    She coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood.


    Severe pain came from her back, and her white T-shirt was immediately stained with arge patch of blood.


    The wind tore at her wound, and the intense pain hit her nerves. Even her breathing began to tremble. She shuddered and took a deep breath, supporting her body with her arms, moving forward bit by bit.


    “I’m fine, I’m doing well, my master will definitely beat that bastard.”


    At this moment, Xiao Shun had entered a state of self-forgetfulness, fully focused on dealing with Gu Baiyi, oblivious to Song Linger’s situation.


    The battle continued, and both sides were in a deadlock.


    Xiao Shun had been seriously injured on Mount Kumi before and had only recovered 60-70% of his strength.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    He knew that if this stalemate continued, it would be extremely unfavorable for him, but he couldn’t think of a better way to deal with it, and he was secretly anxious.


    His energy was slowly being depleted, and a thinyer of sweat appeared on his forehead.


    On the other hand, Gu Baiyi seemed to be confident of winning, with a faint smile on his lips.


    “You’re no match for me. If you admit defeat now, I can let you die quickly.”


    “Wouldn’t that be too easy for me,” replied Xiao Shun.


    “Your sarcasm won’t save you.”


    “Then let’s stop the idle talk,” Xiao Shun’s eyes twinkled with cold light.


    Gu Baiyi stopped talking, using all his strength to p out a palm. The fierce palm wind blew up the fragments of bricks and stones on the ground, along with fresh soil, like a tidal wave rushing towards Xiao Shun.


    Xiao Shun watched the more than ten meters high, wave-like debrising at him with the force of andslide, his eyebrows furrowed, and he squinted slightly.


    His energy was nearly depleted; continued resistance certainly spelled doom. This might be thest opportunity for a fight to the death. He sheathed his finger-sword, quickly formed his heart decision, condensed his Qi into a shield, stamped his foot abruptly, and rushed towards the ck wave.


    Boom!


    A palm strike met Xiao Shun’s chest head-on. Even with the Qi shield offsetting some of the damage, he felt as if his internal organs were throbbing in pain. Countless powerful fragments of brick, like bullets, whistled and hit him.


    Boom! Boom!


    Several more palm strikesnded on him. A strong smell of blood instantly pervaded the cavity. A trace of fresh blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth. His face was pale, and he could feel his energy was almost exhausted.
