Martial Peak

Chapter 704, Alchemy Technique Contest

With a pitiful scream, Nie Cong stumbled back, blood bursting from his new wound, creating a spectacular red fountain.

The onlookers also called out in shock, none of them having anticipated seeing such a scene.

Although Yang Kai’s punch contained a substantial amount of force, it had still only been meant to push Nie Cong back, the one responsible for cutting off the latter wrist was the young man Yang Kai had been competing with. Without the protection of Nie Cong’s True Qi, his severed hand then directly exploded under the influence of Yang Kai’s attack.

The seller’s jaw dropped as he wore an expression of utter disbelief.

“You… you dare hurt me? You bastards, I’ll kill you!” Nie Cong didn’t come to his sense for a while but the moment he did, seeing his stump hand, his eyes instantly went bloodshot as he rushed towards Yang Kai and the young man in a hysterical rage.

Yang Kai remained indifferent and simply stared back at him coldly.

The youth opposite him went one step further and coldly said, “I told you, if you dare reach out for it again, I’d cut off your hand.”

Nie Cong once again froze up as he felt a chill run up his spin and penetrate his heart, his eyes wavering.

“If you dare take one more step, I’ll kill you!” The young man threw out this threat.

Nie Cong’s expression twisted as he did his best to endure the humiliation he felt in his heart before yelling, “Just you wait!”

Having left this threat behind, Nie Cong flew off, leaving a trail of fresh blood behind him.

Yang Kai’s eyes flashed dangerously but quickly suppressed his idea of cutting weeds and pulling out roots before glancing over at his competitor.

The scene was so quiet one could hear a needle drop. Everyone’s eyes were focused on Yang Kai and the young man. Some of them had expressions of pity while others were taking pleasure in their misfortune, while still others had thoughtful looks, wondering what kind of strong backing these two had that allowed them to not fear a Saint Realm master.

“Two little brothers, you…haa!” The seller was speechless, all he wanted to do was sell some herbs but now it had actually turned into such a mess.

“Sorry about that, I got a little too excited,” The young man smiled before turning to look at Yang Kai, “Stirring up such trouble, aren’t you afraid?”

“You’re clearly not afraid, so why should I be?” Yang Kai grinned meaningfully.

“Interesting, I suddenly found that I quite like you.”

Yang Kai’s face went black, “I’m not interested in men.”

The young man quickly realized the ambiguity in his words and waved his hands in a flurry, “You misunderstand me, I just think that your temperament is quite to my taste, how about we become friends?”

“Good, give me this Earth Fire Core first.”

The youth couldn’t help gritting his teeth and going silent for a while before finally saying, “If we continue like this, neither of us will ever give in.”

Kai nodded gently. Strictly speaking, he also noticed that he and his opponent’s personalities were somewhat similar. When people of similar dispositions have a dispute, it is often difficult for them to resolve things due to their similar methods of handling affairs. Of course, this also led to them being able cooperate quite smoothly with one another like how they had just dealt with Nie Cong. In truth, Yang Kai was not the only one just now who had wanted
