Chapter 244 -244: A Wrongful Death
Lu Yun clashed fiercely with Shen Wangxun; both were Thunder Spirit Root possessors using the Power of Thunder, which made the fight exceedingly perilous in its intensity.
—— Just because I possess a Thunder Spirit Root does not mean I’m immune to the Power of Thunder.
Immunity is only to the Power of Thunder that one has condensed oneself.
Thus, amid the clash of the Thunder Powers, both had to guard against getting hit themselves. This Elemental Power was too domineering; if one’s defenses were breached, the intruding Power of Thunder would instantly paralyze the body. Not only would the outcome of the battle be immediately determined, but life and death could be decided in that instant.
“Who are you?” Shen Wangxun, finding his opponent difficult to handle, couldn’t help asking.
“Hmph, you ask who I am now? Don’t you think it’s too late?” Lu Yun scoffed, his adversary truly knew how to endure; up to this point, he had not used the Nine Lotus Secret Technique and had exclusively wielded the Power of Thunder throughout.
Do you still think you can feign innocence in front of me now?
Do you believe that by removing a piece of cloth from your face, I would not recognize you?
Shen Wangxun was perplexed. What was wrong with this guy? Was he mentally ill?
“Your brain must have been fried by lightning!” Shen Wangxun retorted fiercely, launching thunderous assaults with a thought. Its range was a full fifty feet, and its power was immense.
Other Elemental Attacks, like Fireballs and Ice Arrows, have trajectories and are bound by speed, allowing for dodging in time, but how incredibly fast is thunder?
Once it is unleashed, it certainly can’t be dodged.
Hence, in this respect, Lu Yun had to adopt a defensive stance. The moment Shen Wangxun unleashed his thunder, Lu Yun would also have to envelop himself with the Power of Thunder to counteract, otherwise, he would surely be hit.
Conversely, he had to rely on Dark Force to launch his own Power of Thunder, which put him at a disadvantage of more than just one level.
This made him even more intent on killing.
This was a person who could threaten his own position. If he allowed his opponent to grow unchecked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Not to mention, the opponent possessed the Fire Phoenix Tree Branch he coveted—truly one of the rarest Secret Treasures in the world!
Good, it was time to use his trump card.
With a loud shout, he charged ferociously at Shen Wangxun.
“Seeking your own death!” Shen Wangxun sneered, slashing with his sword as the Power of Thunder soared.
Previously, they had bombarded each other with Dark Force from a distance, which allowed for a tough fight, but now as the distance closed, their reaction time was naturally shorter, elevating the danger.
Boom, boom, boom, clink, clink, clink, in the midst of intense combat, Lu Yun actually revealed a flaw.
As a qualified genius, Shen Wangxun immediately seized the opportunity and thrust his sword forward.
It was all over.
Hum!
However, when the sword’s tip reached Lu Yun, it was blocked by a Light Shield.
A Body-Protecting Spirit Instrument!
The term instantly crossed Shen Wangxun’s mind, filled with surprise, for Body-Protecting Spirit Instruments were extremely rare and demanded immensely high crafting skills.
Lu Yun actually had such a treasure!
Not good!
His complexion changed drastically immediately afterward.
Lu Yun, however, revealed a grim cold smile. Now you react, but it’s too late!
Boom, he punched out, and the Power of Thunder surged.
As Shen Wangxun stabbed with his sword, thinking he would achieve his goal and therefore had completely dropped his defenses to focus all his strength on the attack, how could he have any energy left to fend off this punch?
He tried to block with his hand but was effortlessly blown away by Lu Yun—his realm was slightly inferior to Lu Yun’s to begin with, and then the punch hit Shen Wangxun squarely in the chest.
Boom, Shen Wangxun’s whole body flew into the air, wrapped in lightning.
Some of it was launched by himself, some was inflicted by Lu Yun.
He was paralyzed for a short while.
Of course, Lu Yun would not waste such an opportune moment, quickly closing the distance with a leap, palms striking in succession.
Boom, boom, boom, each palm strike landed on Shen Wangxun’s body.
Pfft!
Shen Wangxun spit out blood repeatedly, and by the time his body hit the ground, his entire chest cavity had completely caved in—it was clear he wouldn’t survive.
How could it be that such a genius from the Other Shore, a Thunder Spirit Root no less, capable of externalizing his Soul Power, met such an untimely death?
He was extremely, extremely wronged.
If Lu Yun hadn’t mistaken him for the treasure thief, he wouldn’t have fought so desperately with him. After all, the battle just now was extremely perilous, and Lu Yun could just as likely have been the one to fall.
“You—you—” Shen Wangxun stared fixedly at Lu Yun as he spat out blood. Even now, he couldn’t understand why Lu Yun had to fight so desperately against him.
As he spoke, he coughed up blood, then his head tilted to the side, and he died, eyes still wide open, obviously unable to rest in peace.
Lu Yun glanced at Shi Hao and a cold smile appeared on his face, “Good, you knew you couldn’t escape and didn’t waste your efforts!”
Shi Hao just laughed. As the only one in the know, he really wanted to complain.
Lu Yun searched Shen Wangxun’s body, and after a while, his face lit up with surprise.
A Spatial Spirit Tool!
It was a necklace. When he probed into it with his Soul Force, the joy on his face immediately stiffened.
There was no Fire Phoenix Tree Branch.
Impossible!
With a treasure like that, he absolutely didn’t believe Shen Wangxun would trust anyone enough to leave it in their keeping. And leaving the treasure at home while going out himself was even more unimaginable.
I have a Spatial Spirit Tool, why wouldn’t I use it?
In the Martial Arts Realm, the only person you can trust is yourself.
Nothing, really nothing?
Lu Yun was stunned, unable to believe that Shen Wangxun could have used up such a Nine Stars treasure in a short time, and now he couldn’t find it, which confused him greatly.
But the problem was, there were no other Spatial Spirit Tools on Shen Wangxun’s body.
“Hey, how long are you going to stand there in a daze?” Shi Hao was getting impatient, “If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”
“You still want to leave?” Lu Yun sneered, temporarily setting aside the Fire Phoenix Tree Branch issue and focused on Shi Hao.
“This time, I will make sure you truly die!”
He definitely wouldn’t make the same mistake again.
“You dare!” Just then, a pleasant voice rang out, and Su Manman also walked over.
She was getting impatient waiting, so she came over with her big yellow dog to find Shi Hao.
Seeing Su Manman, Lu Yun’s eyes involuntarily narrowed.
He naturally didn’t know that Su Manman had also gone to Zhenwu Sect—with her “ordinary” appearance, who in the sect would pay attention to her?
So, when he suddenly saw Su Manman, of course, he was shocked.
This woman had an astonishing background, not to mention being indescribably beautiful, a pity that she was already taken.
Wait a minute!
He looked at Su Manman, then at Shi Hao, as if he realized something.
Fuck!

“Shi Hao!” Lu Yun suddenly roared, filled with indescribable emotions—rage, frustration, jealousy, a mix of feelings.
Su Manman’s interest was in Shi Hao!
Why! Why!
Just because this guy is a bit better looking?
“Get lost!” Su Manman shouted impatiently, being a young lady used to having her way.
Lu Yun gritted his teeth but immediately turned and ran.
Su Manman, he really couldn’t afford to provoke her.
