Chapter 1091: An Even Worse Outcome
Martial Arts was a technique meant to kill. Naturally, it utilised the simplest and most effective moves.
Those that commented on the glam of other’s martial arts techniques were usually non-martial arts practitioners. As a martial arts expert himself, Purity could naturally see the explosiveness and efficiency behind Wang Yu’s [Nine Dragon Cloud Soar] spear after a simple demonstration by him.
Furthermore, it looked way simpler to use…
In the Li family, they might not be the ones that were the best at fighting, but in the world of martial arts, there was definitely no one that had managed to surpass the realm of martial arts that the old ancestor that created this spear technique had achieved.
However, after looking at it just once, Wang Yu was able to improve such a complicated spear technique in such a short period of time. Clearly, Wang Yu’s attainments in martial arts had surpassed the Li family’s old ancestor by a large mile.
“This… How is this possible?”
After receiving such a rude shock in her beliefs, Purity’s heart was in turmoil. Unwilling to accept the truth, she raised his long spear and continued to stab towards Wang Yu, spear after spear.
Instinctively, Wang Yu tilted his body at an angle and grasped Purity’s spear with his left hand. With a pull, Purity was dragged right in front of Wang Yu.
At the same time, Wang Yu raised his right elbow and stopped short in front of Purity’s face, causing her to fall backwards in shock.
This move, was one of the most fundamental moves in the Baji Quan Martial Arts.
The most outstanding disciple in the Li family was actually defeated in a single move against an unarmed stranger using the Li family’s own fundamental boxing technique… How ironic was that…
“Keke!” Seeing the dazed Purity sitting on the floor, Wang Yu coolly smiled and said, “You want to challenge me? It is way too early for you to do that.”
After saying his piece, Wang Yu no longer bothered with Purity. He promptly headed towards the door and made a run for it.
“…”
Purity looked at Wang Yu’s figure in the distance with a complicated expression.
“Sister… are you okay!”
At this moment, Nian Liuyun and the rest had already resurrected. Upon seeing Purity sitting on the ground in a daze, they immediately rushed forward and surrounded her.
“At least I still have my dignity left…” Purity hurriedly said.
“What?” Upon hearing what Purity said, everyone was momentarily stunned. Nian Liuyun frantically said, “What did the guy surnamed Wang do to you? I have yet to finish my business with him!”
“That’s enough.” Purity lightly pressed her finger against Nian Liuyun’s forehead and said, “Stop bragging! Let’s go!”
“We’re leaving? You aren’t going to take revenge?” Upon seeing the drastic change in Purity’s attitude, the shock on everyone’s faces wasn’t any lesser than the shock Purity had felt when she saw Wang Yu execute the [Nine Dragon Cloud Soar] spear.
One must know that over the last two years, Purity had treated this as her target so if Wang Yu was unable to give her an explanation, she would never be able to get over it for the rest of her life.
“Heng!” Purity shook her head in a self-deprecating manner and smiled depressingly, “What revenge is there to take? We both originally belonged to two different worlds. It is understandable for him to not put me in his eyes. It was merely me making a big fuss out of everything. Let’s go.”
Purity was an extremely proud person herself. In her eyes, only those with strength had the final say.
The reason why Purity was so against Wang Yu in the past wasn’t because of lame reasons such as love or hate, it was merely because she herself felt that she wasn’t any weaker than Wang Yu. Even if they were to withdraw from this marriage, she had to be the one to initiate it. The man surnamed Wang did not deserve to treat her this way.
However, now that she had seen Wang Yu’s capabilities, Purity finally realised that she had been a frog living in a well all along. For someone as outstanding as Wang Yu, even if he looked down on her, it was to be expected.
Of course, Purity’s take in all of this was merely her own one-sided thinking. The reason why Wang Yu backed out of this marriage wasn’t because he looked down on her or because he didn’t fancy her.
However, this was good as well. The knot in Purity’s heart could be considered to be undone. She shouldn’t be finding trouble with Wang Yu anytime soon in the future.
“This…” Seeing Purity speak such self-deprecating words, Thirteen Ji quietly whispered to Nian Liuyun, “Your sister’s brain must have been damaged by that b*stard.”
“I won’t let him off that easily!” Nian Liuyun bellowed, turning to the direction that Wang Yu left, wanting to settle things with him once and for all.
Purity promptly pinched Nian Liuyun’s ears with her fingers and pulled her back, gently saying, “Enough. I’ll teach you two moves in the [Nine Dragons Cloud Soar] spear technique when we get back.”
“Ah? For real?” Upon hearing Purity’s words, Nian Liuyun’s thoughts were instantly pulled back.
“Really!”
“I thought I can’t learn it?”
“It’s just two moves. Of course, you can learn it!”
As they were speaking, the group of them stepped into the Heavenly Alliance’s teleportation formation, vanishing into white particles of light.
…
At the same time, Wang Yu had finally managed to rush his way through the headquarter’s gates.
It was mentioned before that Heavenly Alliance’s defenses were built by dumping a large sum of real money into the game, the formidability of it could be imagined.
For Magicians, they could rely on the perks granted to the role of a “Guard” and defend against the numerous members of Apocalypse, just based on themselves.
With the addition of other troops as well as city defense equipment, it wasn’t too difficult for them to each take on ten enemies at the same time.
It is to be known that even Li Xue and the other ladies were able to stop the advance of the enemy just by tossing a few medicinal bottles over the walls, much less that of an expert player.
After all, attacking and defending a city were two different ball games altogether.
Especially in games, the attacking players couldn’t rely on cutting off the city’s resources and water supply in hopes of dwindling the enemy’s strength.
On the contrary, a player’s headquarters had a teleportation point that could bring one player directly to the capital city, as well as a resurrection point.
Even if a player were to die in battle, he could be revived and restored to full health at the resurrect point.
Things were different for the attacking side. Against such an isolated headquarters, the moment one of them dies, they would be resurrected in their own capital city. Therefore, apart from their current advantage in numbers, there were no other advantages for them.
Even though they had the help of the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect, as many weird and unorthodox strategies that Quan Zhen Sect had, they still needed someone to carry it out.
Now that the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were separated, there was no way they could coordinate with each other. Even if Fearless had hundreds of strategies at his disposal, it was hard for him to realise them.
Furthermore, Heavenly Alliance had their own experts too. Even though the Twelve Celestial Bodies weren’t as strong as Purity’s group of players, they were still a match for Quan Zhen Sect’s players.
It was already considered good for the few of them from Quan Zhen Sect to hold on to their dear lives, they wouldn’t dare to ask for anything more.
At this moment, the few of them were squatting at the corner with shocked faces as they were merely backing up as the cheering squad.
Fortunately, these mercenaries didn’t recognise each other which was why everything was so messy. Otherwise, the Quan Zhen Sect would have suffered a few deaths.
“Brothers, charge!! Let’s beat these trash to death!”
Everyone simultaneously flooded in the guild chat, “F*ck, this Feng Yun Realm is too rich. To think that he would be able to modify his headquarters to this extent. I don’t think that they will be able to win.”
“That’s right!” Fearless sighed and said, “But that isn’t the worst.”
“Ah? There’s something even worse?” Everyone was shocked upon hearing what Fearless said.
If one failed to successful siege an enemy’s headquarters, they would be punished by the system for initiating the battle. Whether the losing party had to give up their lands or pay compensation to the winning party were all at the discretion of the victor.
It was clear that Feng Yun Realm was a small-minded person. Seeing that Apocalypse had always been an eyesore for Feng Yun Realm, if Apocalypse were to lose the battle this time, they would be tortured to death by Feng Yun Realm.
“En!” Fearless nodded his head and said, “Don’t forget, Feng Yun Realm is the City Lord of Sky Dragon City as well.”
