Chapter 467 The Tiger in the Path (2/2)

Zhou Yuan gazed at the absent-minded Han Yu and said, “I’m heading to the peak.”

Han Yu finally returned to her senses. Her brows soon furrowed deeply as she worriedly said, “I wonder how senior sister Lu Yan and the rest are doing.”

Although they had obtained a great victory here, she knew that decisive battle was still the one occurring at the peak. If even the combined might of Lu Yan, Zhou Tai and Zhang Yan failed to defeat Yuan Hong, Han Yu was truly unable to imagine who could possibly be capable of stopping him.

Even Zhou Yuan… should not be up to the task, right?

“We’ll know once we have a look.”

Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed, before his figure soared into the sky once again, dashing past layers of mist as he headed directly to the peak.

Han Yu hesitated for a moment, before swiftly following.

Since they were already at this point, she felt that she should go and take a look.

The two figures flew past stone platform after platform, gradually ascending the peak under the countless watching gazes. As they climbed, broken stone platforms began to enter their sights.

It was clear that an extremely intense battle had erupted here.

Han Yu’s face grew increasingly nervous when she saw this. Such destructive power was far beyond them.

Furthermore, the most alarming observation was that she was still unable to sense any Genesis Qi ripples as they steadily approached the peak. Did this mean that the battle was already over?

Had senior sister Lu Yan’s side won?”

Han Yu’s pretty face fluctuated indeterminately.

Swish!

The two figures ultimately pierced through the mist, landing on the mountain top of the chief disciple peak. Thick mist covered their surroundings, greatly hindering their senses.

Zhou Yuan gazed to the front, no fear visible on his face as he walked forward.

There was a vast, giant plaza on the peak that was completely silent as Zhou Yuan slowly walked within it. After some time, his footsteps suddenly came to a halt as he gazed straight ahead.

With a wave of his sleeve, Genesis QI surged out to sweep away the thick mist.

As the mist was swept away, the surroundings finally became clearer.

Next, Zhou Yuan and Han Yu saw a towering stone throne at the center of the plaza. It was the chief disciple seat.

At this current moment, a figure was reclining on the throne.

Zhou Yuan’s brows slowly began to furrow as he gazed upon the figure, while Han Yu’s face had turned deathly white.

Because the figure belonged to Yuan Hong from Lu Hong’s faction!

“Yuan Hong, where are senior sister Lu Yan and the others?” Han Yu’s voice was trembling.

On the stone throne, Yuan Hong lightly tapped the back of the throne, as he slowly raised a pair eyes that were filled with savagery and ferocity, making him look like a terrible violent beast.

He seemed to be a little surprised when he saw the Zhou Yuan duo, but soon began to laugh, revealing his eerily white teeth as if he were a wild beast.

Next, he raised a finger and pointed behind him.

If one looked over, one would see that the ground had fissured, and a good chunk of the mountain top had collapsed. Three bloody figures lay amidst the rubble, releasing weak breathing sounds.

Han Yu hands were tightly clenched over her mouth.

Yuan Hong slowly cracked his neck. He did not appear to be very interested in the two individuals before him as he waved his hand at them as if trying to chase away flies.

“Though I am rather surprised that you two were able to come here…”

“It will be best for the both of you to admit defeat and withdraw.” Yuan Hong leaned against the back of the throne, indifference on his face as he slowly closed his eyes.

Han Yu trembled as fear rose in her eyes. She looked towards Zhou Yuan, only to find that the latter seemed to be smiling.

Zhou Yuan slowly walked forward with firm and steady steps, showing no fear at all.

He gave a small twist to the Heavenly Yuan Brush, causing a buzzing noise to emerge as he slowly raised it and pointed towards Yuan Hong.

“Senior brother Yuan Hong, won’t you come down and play with me?”

“I too want to have a seat on that throne.”
