Chapter 397 Captain Lazy Returns
He twirled the spear and threw it in a different direction. When the attack exploded, it destroyed everything in a five-meter radius.
"You..." Hu Fei was at a loss for words. "Why are you doing this...?"
"Cough!" Bai Chen crawled out from the rubble, covered in blood and dust. His bloodshot eyes looked at the boy as if he had killed his family. "I am... still not done!"
Hearing his words, the boy simply shook his head and looked down at his hands. "You wanted to know why I am here, right?"
Small wisps of smoke came out of his hand, and his wounds started to heal little by little.
It was not just his body that was regenerating on its own. He was using his qi to speed up the process, which gave away his real cultivation base.
"Golden Core Realm... First level..." Hu Fei's eyes widened in shock. Bai Chen could not believe it as well. He took a step back in disbelief.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"He is in the same realm as me...." His mind went blank. Then he looked at Hu Fei, who was in the fourth level of the same realm.
"Don't be so shocked, this is my real cultivation." Seeing his hand all healed up, Nuo Yan waved it in front of their faces. "I will stop pulling your legs, seeing how pale you two look and also that your purpose here is served."
"What are you talking about?" Hu Fei calmed herself down as a face flashed through her mind.
"There was a reason I even bothered playing around with you two in the first place," he explained.
"I was stalling for time. Now that everything is in place, I don't need to do that anymore."
"You have an accomplice!" A look of recognition appeared on Hu Fei's face when she exclaimed out loud. "You are just keeping us distracted here while whoever is with you is making a mess on the other side of that protection array that's keeping you from leaving."
"Protection array? Pfft! Hahaha!!" Under their confused gaze, the boy suddenly started laughing loudly. "You have never seen the Royal Palace's protection array, have you?"
"That thing is not your protection array." His revelation caused them both to realize that they had been thinking about it the wrong way.
"Going straight for the kill, huh, old man?" Jumping back, he created distance between them.
"Why did you go roundabout if you simply wanted to fight me?" The middle-aged man adjusted his straw hat and asked lazily. "You just made me work up on that array."
"Who said I am here to fight you? I was here for something else, but a certain lazy person lying in the garden caught my interest~"
"Oye! Are you saying that you simply killed these people because you wanted to play with the Head Captain!" Hu Fei's anger flared so much hearing those words that even Bai Chen was scared of her at that moment. Even without any qi, her expression made her look dangerous enough.
"Head Captain, huh? Well, it's no wonder that you are a Head Captain with your strength..." Nuo Yan complemented the man with a smile.
"These people aren't dead..." The middle-aged man ignored the boy and looked at the guards lying on the ground. He could sense some life force in their bodies.
Even though it was barely there, it was still there, meaning that all of them were alive.
"...and I am not fighting you." Shifting his focus back to the young man before him, Captain Black Sword lazily replied, "You will come with us to see the emperor for your punishment since you haven't killed anyone. I am sure it won't be your life."
The smile on the young man's face vanished, replaced by a cold and solemn look. "Did you think I wasted my time to warm you up with the array for nothing?"
*Snap!*
He took a step forward and snapped his fingers. The sound of his snap echoed in the silent area as the sparkles falling from the sky suddenly vanished.
In next to no time, the whole estate was covered by another array. This time it was a cubical array that just covered their fighting area.
*Clang!*
"I am not a battle maniac like a certain brain-dead monkey here, but I sure as hell don't like wasting my time for nothing." The black sword reappeared once more, stopping a punch from landing on its user's face.
"I made a mistake coming back from the vacation..." The middle-aged man sighed, realizing that he would have to waste more energy on the boy.
