The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 226. Cruel Means Reappear in the Jianghu

In an instant, a large swath of scorching flames was absorbed by Ya Zi’s hands, transforming into a wisp of fire in her palm.

She raised her hand and struck towards Xiao Yan from a distance, stirring up a ripple visible to the naked eye in the air.

Xiao Yan wanted to dodge but it was too late, a palm print appeared on her chest, and she collapsed onto the ground. novelbuddy.cσ๓

Two cultists rushed forward and held her down from both sides.

Ya Zi walked forward slowly, gently blew out the flame in her hand, and looked down at Xiao Yan: "You really know how to run, but this ends here."

Xiao Yan glared at her angrily. If it weren’t for the fact that she and Han Li had been chased for three days and nights without rest, nearly exhausted, she wouldn’t have been defeated so easily.

"Remember not to oppose our cult in your next life."

Ya Zi reached out to press on Xiao Yan’s chest, ready to sever her heart vein with a burst of palm power.

Xiao Yan struggled desperately, but was firmly suppressed by the two cultists.

Crack——

A door in the corridor suddenly opened, right in front of them.

Fang Zhou looked on in shock at the scene that looked remarkably like a crime scene, with two accomplices holding down the victim while the mastermind touched the victim’s chest.

Isn’t the next step to tear off the victim’s clothes and commit heinous acts?

But why are they all women?

For a moment, Fang Zhou’s mind was in a mess: "Should I leave and let you continue?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Xiao Yan struggled fiercely, breaking free from the hands of the two Demon Cultists and rolled away to escape.

Ya Zi couldn’t bother to kill her, and with a hand like a knife, she slashed back at Fang Zhou’s neck with a speed so fast it was hard to see.

However, the bloody scene of a neck being sliced open did not happen as anticipated.

Fang Zhou raised his hand even faster and grabbed Ya Zi’s fingers, coldly saying: "Who are you people?"

This woman’s strikes and aiming for the neck clearly showed she was out for blood.

Ya Zi was taken aback, instinctively trying to pull her hand back.

Failed to budge.

She exerted all her strength and pulled even harder.

Still couldn’t move.

Xiao Yan, once again held down by the two Demon Cultists, urgently shouted: "They’re from the Demon Sect, run, quickly!"

Fang Zhou glanced over, seeing Xiao Yan dressed in an opera costume with a mask on her face, sensing that her voice seemed familiar.

Ya Zi’s eyes turned cold, she no longer dared to treat Fang Zhou as an ordinary passerby, but as an expert with strength on par with her own.

Seizing the moment when Fang Zhou turned, Ya Zi lifted her other hand, striking towards Fang Zhou’s head, intending to force him to release her.

Without even looking, Fang Zhou forcefully twisted.

Crack——

Several of Ya Zi’s fingers were snapped, and the excruciating pain caused her eyes to bulge, letting out an involuntary scream.

Fang Zhou originally didn’t want to resort to such a brutal method of finger snapping, but upon realizing they were Demon Sect members, he had no hesitation.

Though Ya Zi’s face twisted in pain, the palm striking towards Fang Zhou’s head did not stop.

Fang Zhou turned his head to dodge, a visible ripple in the air brushed past his forehead, crashing with a boom into the door, leaving a gaping hole.

With the first strike missing, Ya Zi immediately transitioned from striking to slicing, aiming at Fang Zhou’s arm that held her fingers.

Fang Zhou had to release her hand, simultaneously kicking Ya Zi away.

Just as Ya Zi landed, Fang Zhou cast an Illusion Technique over her, leaving her stunned and dazed, suddenly flailing around like a madwoman.

This scene left Xiao Yan and the two Demon Cultists dumbfounded; they were well aware of how formidable Ya Zi was, being colleagues and enemies.

Ya Zi wouldn’t necessarily lose even against a True Disciple of a Major Sect, yet here she was easily subdued by an unknown man.

Having dealt with Ya Zi using the Illusion Technique, Fang Zhou turned to the two Demon Cultists.

They exchanged glances and boldly lunged at Fang Zhou.

This behavior might be seen as fearless bravery or sheer foolishness, but either way, it was meaningless.

Fang Zhou casually knocked the two to the ground. He held nothing back and didn’t make a point to kill them; their fate was left to chance.

Fang Zhou then turned his gaze onto Xiao Yan, puzzled, "You’re not from the Heavenly Sword Sect, who are you?"

Xiao Yan was dressed in a Sun Wukong costume from Journey to the West, with a monkey face mask.

However, Journey to the West had already started, the actors were on stage, and everyone from the White Snake drama troupe had gone to watch, leaving the backstage empty.

Furthermore, the actor for Sun Wukong was personally selected by Fang Zhou; a flat-chested girl.

Earlier, when Ya Zi pressed her hand on Xiao Yan’s chest, Fang Zhou noticed the size beneath her clothing was small and delicate, slightly distinct from the flat-chested girl.

Recognizing people by their chest could be considered a skill, one that Fang Zhou took pride in.

Xiao Yan quietly stood up, having recognized that the man before her was the same person who had played Xu Xian earlier.

Initially, she was filled with disdain for Xu Xian; his abandonment of Fa Hai reminded her of her fiancé.

But she then realized that Xu Xian was fictional, and the man before her wasn’t necessarily like Xu Xian; just like Xu Xian was a simple man unable to harm a fly, yet this man could easily defeat Ya Zi.

"I was being hunted by the Demon Sect and had no choice but to flee into the theater, please forgive me," Xiao Yan said softly, pausing, then added gratefully, "Thank you for saving me."

Fang Zhou scrutinized Xiao Yan, feeling perplexed, sensing he had seen her somewhere before.

Now, it had been over half a year since Fang Zhou’s engagement with the Xiao Family, during which they both matured considerably, altering their physique and voice significantly.

Fang Zhou felt Xiao Yan was familiar, relying more on intuition.

He suddenly reached out to remove the mask from Xiao Yan’s face.

Xiao Yan was startled, instinctively wanting to dodge, but not fast enough to escape Fang Zhou.

Yet before Fang Zhou’s hand could touch Xiao Yan’s mask, Ya Zi, who was flailing around, suddenly stopped and broke free from the Illusion Technique.

The Illusion Technique lasts for five minutes, ineffective against those in the Innate Realm, with high spiritual resistance can shorten the duration.

Ya Zi’s spiritual resistance was evidently high, breaking free in less than half a minute.

Fang Zhou had no time to remove Xiao Yan’s mask, turning instead to face Ya Zi.

Ya Zi lifted her hand towards Fang Zhou, her face menacing: "Come here!"

A powerful suction force instantly dragged Fang Zhou and Xiao Yan towards Ya Zi.

"No, this isn’t good!"

Xiao Yan’s expression changed as she hurriedly reached for Fang Zhou, knowing this was Ya Zi’s secret technique, Wind Absorption Acupoint. Once caught, the body’s Spiritual Energy would be disrupted, rendering them like prey in a trap, at the mercy of others.

Fang Zhou remained calm, having been pulled around by a gourd many times before, he was already used to it.

He raised his hand and shot an Invisible Sword Energy towards Ya Zi.

Infinite Sword Energy was a skill formed by merging the Qi Gathering Technique with simple swordsmanship; Fang Zhou had practiced a few times, and this was his first time using it against an opponent.
