842 You Are Really Weak (1/2)
As they heard the disdainful voice, Nangong Hao flew to the side and crashed on the edge of the altar like a cannonball.
Boom! Rubbles flew and the soaring bloody light disappeared.
This was definitely an unexpected scene. At the very least, more than half of the spectating disciples were still focused on the lightning falling from the sky before Nangong Hao was sent flying.
However…
While they were busy looking at the lightning, Nangong Hao had already flown away. It was so sudden that they couldn't comprehend what had happened.
”Diversionary tactic?!”
”All of these lightning bolts is a… Diversionary tactic?”
They couldn't believe that this big hoo-ha was just a diversionary tactic.
'That's so wasteful!'
This was the first thought in their minds.
This thought had naturally crossed Nangong Hao's mind as well, even if it was just a split second. However, he had clearly heard Fang Zhengzhi.
”Diversionary tactic?” Nangong Hao stared at Fang Zhengzhi, who was now standing at the spot that he had stood on just now. Although it wasn't too obvious, he seemed a little astonished. At the very least, he no longer looked as calm as before, since there was a little dirt on his face now.
Just as Nangong Hao was about to stand up, his expression changed again. As compared to his astonishment just now, he looked much grimmer this time.
That was because he felt an exceptionally terrifying sense of crisis, which was as uncomfortable as sitting on a bunch of needles. Furthermore, he could feel that it was extremely close to him.
Boom!
The entire Heaven's Peak shook after it was hit by countless bolts of lightning. Each one of them brought along violent wind and storm, and all of them struck the edge of the altar, where Nangong Hao was.
”Hao'er!” Nangong Tian cried out in shock. He was awfully pale at this moment even though he looked calm just a moment ago.
”What's going on?!”
”How did the lightning…”
”Isn't that a diversionary tactic?”
The intense tremor made the surrounding disciples fall back intuitively. However, all of them looked puzzled and stunned.
”Diversionary tactic? You guys are really naive. Did you really think that an honest man like myself would do something so wasteful? That's impossible. Thriftiness and frugality are great traditional virtues!” Fang Zhengzhi answered the disciples' doubts in a contemptuous tone.
”…”
”Honest man?”
”Thriftiness and frugality are great traditional virtues…”
”…”
If there were different kinds of speechlessness in this word, one of them must be not knowing what to say, or rather, too ashamed to say anything.
That was how the surrounding disciples felt at this moment.
When Fang Zhengzhi started the massive hoo-ha but ended up sending Nangong Hao flying with a kick, they were dumbstruck because they felt like their intelligence were flattened.
Now?
They felt that it was more than their intelligence that was flattened. It was a heartfelt humiliation which made them angry and ashamed, and at the meantime, they felt like they couldn't stand tall anymore.
It wasn't a diversionary tactic!
There wasn't any diversionary tactic since the beginning. In other words, Fang Zhengzhi did that to trick them into thinking that he was using a diversionary tactic.
It was so shameless!
However, it also frightening and spine-chilling.
The most important factor in a fight between two experts wasn't the difference in their strength, because it would be negligible at their level.
Hence, it was most important to predict and control the tide of the battle.
Fang Zhengzhi had managed to achieve that. Nevertheless, it was unimaginable that he had done that with his first move.
Illusion could be the reality, and reality could also be an illusion!
”Fang Zhengzhi is good! Elder Gu, if you were in Nangong Hao's place, could you have stopped that?” Mo Shanshi's expression kept changing as he looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
”Well… I'm afraid… Not!” Gu Yuan shook his. Even though he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't alter the truth.
'Yup, even I'd fall prey to him, not to mention you!” Mo Shanshi nodded softly after he heard Gu Yuan.
As the conversation between them ended, the lightning falling from the sky finally dissipated. The rubbles on the ground looked like they were slashed by blades.
This scene left the spectating disciples slack-jawed. They couldn't understand how lightning bolts were able to damage the ground like this.
Of course, that wasn't important anymore. At the very least, it wasn't the most important thing at the moment because there was no one amidst the rubbles.
Nangong Hao had disappeared.
”He disappeared?!”
”Did the lightning tear to him to shreds?”
”That's impossible!”
The disciples couldn't believe it because Nangong Hao shouldn't be so weak.
”Young master Fang, what are you looking at?” While they were feeling confused, a voice suddenly appeared behind Fang Zhengzhi.
At the meantime, a black figure slowly appeared behind his back.
Nangong Hao!
Almost everyone's heart skipped a beat at this moment because no one expected Nangong Hao to counterattack so quickly after he was blasted by so many lightning bolts.
Furthermore, he used an identical move.
'Freak!'
'Both of them are freaks!'
That was everyone's first thought.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled into a smile as if he couldn't sense the approaching danger. He kept his head up and said, ”Today's weather is really fine. The sun is bright and the clouds are changing constantly just like the Dao of All Creation. However, is the Dao of All Creation simply about changes? I don't think so, I believe that apart from changes, the Dao of All Creation has another…”
Boom!
Right on the heels of the loud bang, the black figure behind Fang Zhengzhi disappeared without a trace. Then, it appeared five steps behind him in the next moment.
