Jian Changsheng VS Sun Bumian
Sun Bumian hummed a little tune, leisurely walking under the azure sky.
Holding the Awakened Lion Head-dress in his left hand and an application form in his right hand, coupled with a retro black-and-red Tang suit and a pair of small Round Sunglasses, his head-turning rate on the street was extremely high. However, he seemed to have already gotten used to this. Looking at the last few columns on the application form, he seemed to be struggling over something.
"Brother, where did you buy this big lion?"
A girl who was still holding her mother's hand saw that colorful Awakened Lion Head-dress, her eyes full of curiosity.
"Big lion?" Sun Bumian froze, realizing the girl was talking about the Head-dress in his hand. "This... I made this myself. You can't buy it anywhere else~"
Hearing this, hazy mist began to spread in the corners of the girl's eyes. Looking eagerly at that Head-dress, her face was written full of disappointment.
Seeing this, the corners of Sun Bumian's mouth curled up into a smile. He rubbed his fingertips in the void, and a fragrant stick of Candied Haws appeared out of thin air and was handed into the girl's hand. "However, I can give this to you."
This Stagecraft of conjuring Candied Haws out of thin air instantly attracted all of the girl's attention. For a time, she actually forgot her sadness of not being able to buy the Head-dress. She took the Candied Haws in surprise and took a light bite.
"Thank you, Brother!"
"You're welcome~" Sun Bumian grinned and waved his hand, continuing to walk forward.
However, before he could take a few steps, a whistling sound of something tearing through the air struck from beside his ear!
Whoosh—!!
Sun Bumian immediately tilted his head, and that thing brushed past his temples, directly piercing into a metal traffic light pole, quivering slightly in the air...
Seeing clearly that "hidden weapon", Sun Bumian spoke in astonishment:
"A Crab Leg???"
He fiercely turned his head, only to see a murderous-looking young man rapidly charging over here!
"Bitch!!" Jian Changsheng roared. "Where are you running??!"
"... Holy crap."
Sun Bumian pulled down his small Round Sunglasses. After seeing clearly who the person was, his expression instantly changed, and he immediately ran wildly without looking back!
What the hell,
This person really walked from the Gray World to Tianshu Domain?!
Sun Bumian didn't like fighting. Of course, excluding when he unilaterally beat up others... Since that person came running over full of resentment looking like he wanted to seek revenge, Sun Bumian naturally thought running away was the best strategy. He took two steps in the void, then soared straight up like stepping on clouds, stepping extremely far away in the blink of an eye.
"That guy Red Heart's footwork?"
Jian Changsheng recognized Cloud Steps at a glance. Knowing that if he chased on foot he definitely wouldn't be able to catch up, he simply directly bit his finger, Blood Drop Instant Movement!
The chase between the two on the main road directly turned into a "battle of techniques". This scene also attracted the attention of a large number of pedestrians around. They watched helplessly as the two soared into the air, turning into two distant dots.
Sun Bumian glanced back, only to see that person bleeding while approaching him, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly:
"No need to go so far, brother? Do we really have such a huge grudge?"
"Cut the crap!" Jian Changsheng gnashed his teeth. "I said, next time I bump into you, I will stomp your head into pieces!!"
Sun Bumian sighed helplessly. "Then don't blame me for being impolite."
Before the voice fell, his figure suddenly twisted in the air!
The small Round Sunglasses slid down slightly along the bridge of his nose, and pairs of rings surfaced in his pupils... The next moment, the hair at his temples fluttered like colorful ink flames, and a scorching and divine aura rose in the air!
He looked down at Jian Changsheng flashing with bloody shadows below, raised the sole of his foot, and suddenly stomped down!!
Boom—!!
In the void, that massive phantom of the Awakened Lion was sketched out once again. A sole that blocked the sky and the sun pressed down horizontally above Jian Changsheng's head like a mountain. Carved on the palm of that lion were four large golden characters:
—— [Good Fortune and Auspiciousness].
The four resplendent golden characters burned like a scorching sun. The massive Awakened Lion's sole smashed down from the vault of heaven, but this time it failed to touch anything, leaving only a whistling hurricane sweeping across the streets of Tianshu city below...
"... Eh?" Sun Bumian raised an eyebrow in surprise. Almost at the same time, a figure had already appeared in the air above him like a ghost!
"If it wasn't for carrying that guy on my back last time... did you really think I couldn't dodge?"
Ancient Killing Intent drifted from Jian Changsheng's eyes. He spoke faintly, while at the same time clasping his thumb against his index fingertip, tightening it forcefully against Sun Bumian below, like wanting to flick away dust!
Nihilistic thunder sounded at this instant. Jian Changsheng's fingers with bulging veins were like a bowstring drawn to the extreme, abruptly flicking out!
[Asura] path, Third Tier — Thunder-Throttling Finger.
Crack—!!
Blood-colored lightning instantly flickered in the sky behind Jian Changsheng, interweaving into a ferocious cobweb. The power compressed to the extreme erupted exponentially at the moment the finger flicked out. The air twisted and emitted a sharp explosion, directly shattering more than half of that Awakened Lion's sole!
Under this terrifying power, Sun Bumian hugged the Awakened Lion Head-dress with one hand, abruptly plummeting towards the earth like a meteorite. The ring-shaped pupils behind the small Round Sunglasses were looking at Jian Changsheng in mid-air with unparalleled surprise.
Thud!
Amidst a dull sound, the dust on the earth flew up and rolled.
Jian Changsheng closely followed and landed back on the ground. After a cold snort, he walked straight towards the broken crater in the earth... But the next moment, his footsteps suddenly froze.
"... Where is he?" Jian Changsheng looked at that empty crater, his brows suddenly knitting tightly.
A roaring train sound sounded from beside. Jian Changsheng seemed to have sensed something and fiercely turned his head to look.
He only saw carriages of a train rapidly speeding past along the railway tracks. And on the cables above that train, a young man wearing a Tang suit was standing there as if weightless, gently pushing the small Round Sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.
"... Familiar Killing Intent." Sun Bumian murmured to himself. "I always feel... like I've seen it in a dream before?"
"He actually wasn't injured much?"
Seeing Sun Bumian's calm and breezy appearance, Jian Changsheng's brows knitted tighter and tighter. After taking a deep breath, as if having made some kind of decision, he picked up a sharp iron rod from the roadside, holding it in reverse and aiming it at his own body.
"Since it's like this, I can only use my Dom..."
Buzz—!!
Before the final word "ain" was spoken, Sun Bumian gently snapped his fingers. A burning Awakened Lion whistled and swept past from beside, biting Jian Changsheng's body in one gulp, like a cat catching a grasshopper, crashing headfirst into the top floor of a hotel with a luxurious and grand appearance!
"It's better not to use such a dangerous thing." The corners of Sun Bumian's mouth curled up slightly. "Violent maniacs should go deal with violent maniacs..."
...
At this moment,
Top floor of the hotel.
An Awakened Lion violently shook its head outside the window, directly smashing a figure through the Glass and throwing him into an empty room that looked like a conference hall.
Jian Changsheng rolled several times on the ground, finally stabilizing his figure. Before he had time to curse Sun Bumian for not following martial virtues, the next moment, tall black shadows surrounded him from all directions...
"You, who are you?"
Over a dozen Path of Force auras abruptly rose from the surroundings!!
