"Tsk tsk, so powerful and strong!" At this moment, Ye Xiao flashed to the side, chuckling, with a Dragon Flag in one hand and the other hand transformed into a dragon claw, shaking back and forth.

The cold-faced man was completely unprepared for Ye Xiao's sudden dash, and for him to evade his attack at such speed and still avoid it normally.

However, as a seasoned martial artist, the cold-faced man naturally understood the rules among martial artists: if you can't kill the enemy, they will kill you. This is because martial artists are different from ordinary people; if you let an enemy go today, you might encounter them again tomorrow, possibly as a stronger and more vicious opponent.

Therefore, the cold-faced man hesitated not even a second and immediately charged at Ye Xiao at such lightning speed it left people speechless!

"Go die!" At this moment, the cold-faced man unleashed his strongest power. He had to kill, he absolutely had to kill Ye Xiao, not for any other reason except to ensure his own survival.

Ye Xiao naturally understood the cold-faced man's intentions. He was also a martial artist, and he deeply knew the deadly game of survival among martial artists!

So, Ye Xiao directly flung the Dragon Flag over his shoulder, then launched himself like an arrow released from a string, sprinting at lightning speed toward the oncoming cold-faced man.

Both of their speeds were shockingly fast.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of explosions echoed out, like firecrackers, but of a larger caliber.

At this moment, both Ye Xiao's hands had transformed into dragon claws. Facing an Earth Rank middle-stage martial artist, Ye Xiao had no need to conceal his strength. Of course, the most important point was that Ye Xiao wished to end the battle quickly—nobody knew if there were other Earth Rank experts around; if there were, it would be a deadly threat to Ye Xiao.

After several rounds of clashes between the cold-faced man's fists and Ye Xiao's claws, the cold-faced man gained no advantage; on the contrary, his clothing was slashed into several cuts. As an Earth Rank expert, the cold-faced man clearly had multiple techniques up his sleeve as well.

Seeing that fists couldn't quickly defeat Ye Xiao, the cold-faced man immediately changed tactics, turning his fists into palms to battle Ye Xiao.

Yet in reality, because the cold-faced man only possessed so much inner power true qi, whether it transformed into palms or fists, it was merely converting his internal true qi into attack power. Despite his decent strength and cultivation nearing the middle Earth Rank stage, he lacked martial arts techniques beyond the Earth Rank, which greatly limited his strength!

However, unlike the cold-faced man, Ye Xiao possessed martial arts capable of surpassing the Earth Rank!

Not to mention, just the Fire Dragon Claw—this Earth Rank high-level supreme martial arts technique—was hard to compare with. After all, it was a Fire Dragon Claw enhanced by Nine Yang True Qi, stronger than ordinary Fire Dragon Claws.

Of course, Ye Xiao didn't just possess this supreme martial arts technique, the Fire Dragon Claw!

Ye Xiao watched as the cold-faced man's fists turned into a hand skill, feeling displeased because, with Fire Dragon Claws, one could grapple with fists; thus, it provided some tactical advantage. However, the opponent used a hand skill to replace the fist technique, which was somewhat disadvantageous for Ye Xiao in executing Fire Dragon Claws. Although the impact wasn't significant, it still made Ye Xiao feel somewhat frustrated.

"You change, I change too!" Ye Xiao sneered coldly, saying, "Watch my fist!"

Suddenly, Ye Xiao's Fire Dragon Claws transformed into fists, and what surprised the cold-faced man was that these fists were crackling with an immensely strong thunder element aura.

"Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist!" Ye Xiao shouted fiercely, and the fists brimming with thunder element aura pounded toward the cold-faced man. Naturally, the cold-faced man didn't back down and responded with his hand skill.

But the power of the Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist was extraordinarily strong, absolutely a supreme martial arts technique beyond the Earth Rank. Its power, in some respects, surpassed that of the Fire Dragon Claw because the Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist's strength was explosively concentrated at a single point.

Boom!

A violent explosion echoed!

The Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist clashed fiercely with the cold-faced man's hand skill.

In an instant, the cold-faced man was sent flying, crashing hard into the swimming pool.

The once spacious swimming pool sank half a meter downward from the impact of the cold-faced man's collision. It was evident just how powerful Ye Xiao's Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist had been. At this moment, the cold-faced man's body was somewhat twisted.

Clearly, even in his wildest dreams, the cold-faced man, a martial artist of Earth Rank, never imagined that one day he would be crippled by a single punch. He wanted to stand up, but no matter how he tried, he couldn't. Right now, not only did he feel that the arm which had met the Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist was entirely shattered, but even his bones were mostly fractured.

"You...you..." The cold-faced man's expression was ferocious and shocked.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao squatted by the swimming pool, watching the man inside with a smile, saying faintly, "Looks like the Soul Sect lost another Earth Rank expert."

"You...you will...will be hunted by the Soul Sect..." The cold-faced man's voice trembled.

"Hunted by the Soul Sect? Ha ha, the Soul Sect has many people within the Northern Territory, and you're the first to die by my hands since I started targeting the Soul Sect. You ought to feel honored. Oh, by the way, you have someone named Heini, don't you?" Ye Xiao said with a smile.

Listening to Ye Xiao, the cold-faced man couldn't help but be a little surprised, because since yesterday, their leader had been searching for Heini, but Heini seemed to have vanished from the Northern Territory without a trace.

"It was...it was you who took Heini!"

Ye Xiao nodded, saying, "You're really smart; it makes me have to send you off to the afterlife quickly."

Ye Xiao chuckled, slowly stood up, walked over to the water control, pressed the switch, then returned to the poolside. Watching the pool fill with water, he smiled brilliantly, saying, "I lost a vibrant childhood, which the Soul Sect owes me, and I will make sure they repay it with interest!"

The cold-faced man certainly didn't understand what Ye Xiao meant, only Ye Xiao knew. Towards the Soul Sect, Ye Xiao harbored only hatred, an infinite hatred!

His current goal was clear: to overthrow the Soul Sect!
