442: Chapter 437: The Rakshasa Queen is Injured?
Wang Bingbing spoke softly, her words tinged with ambiguity, which was quite remarkable for someone who often called herself the “Queen.”
“I will!
Wang Bingbing, once I’ve taken care of important matters in the United States, I’ll return immediately!”
Ye Tian was also eager to return, not just because of Wang Bingbing, but also because of his wife, Yun Xinyan.
He wondered how she had been during his absence.
“It’s a promise!”
Wang Bingbing smiled and then, on her tiptoes, she kissed Ye Tian on the cheek.
This time, it wasn’t Ye Tian’s teasing but Wang Bingbing’s initiative.
In front of Ye Tian, Wang Bingbing, the queenly figure, slowly recaptured the feelings of a young girl.
Although it was just a gentle kiss, for Wang Bingbing, it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds!
After kissing Ye Tian, Wang Bingbing boarded the plane.
Ye Tian, touching his cheek, could still taste the peculiar flavor of Wang Bingbing’s lipstick…
After standing at the boarding gate for several minutes, Ye Tian left Los Angeles International Airport.
He had pressing matters to attend to in the United States.
Until those were resolved, he would be restless, even if he returned to Jiang City…
Ye Tian walked along the roadside; the Four Seasons Hotel was not far from Los Angeles International Airport.
With a brisk pace, it would only take half an hour to reach by foot.
Without Wang Bingbing, Ye Tian moved much faster, and there was no need to take a taxi.
Ye Tian had to rush back to the Four Seasons Hotel as soon as possible.
The crafting of the millennium ancient tree’s core was nearing completion, and Ye Tian hoped the divine weapon would be ready before his next encounter with the Rakshasa Queen!
“Eh?”
He hadn’t walked far when Ye Tian suddenly spotted something unusual.
It was only a brief glimpse, but he could not mistake his mortal enemy.
It must be the Rakshasa Queen!
Of course, that was just a fleeting glimpse Ye Tian had caught.
He could no longer see her now.
To confirm whether it was indeed the Rakshasa Queen, Ye Tian had to use his clairvoyant ability!
Activating his clairvoyant eyes, Ye Tian scanned the distance and indeed saw the Rakshasa Queen!
“What’s going on?”
When Ye Tian saw the Rakshasa Queen, he noticed something strange: she seemed injured.
Although it was not apparent on the surface, nothing, not even the slightest injury or illness, could hide from Ye Tian’s clairvoyant ability.
The Rakshasa Queen was indeed hurt, not with an external wound but an internal one.
Ye Tian could clearly see that the Rakshasa Queen’s energy was obstructed, and she was continuously trying to regulate it.
Knowing that his archenemy was hurt, Ye Tian was overjoyed!
Even though the core of the millennium ancient tree was not fully carved, the injured Rakshasa Queen would have diminished power.
This presented Ye Tian with the best opportunity!
If he could defeat the Rakshasa Queen, not only would Yun Xinyan and his other women in Jiang City be safe, but the Power of the Crystal taken by the Rakshasa Queen, and the possibility that the third artifact, the Golden Horn unearthed from the ancient tomb, was also in her possession.
Acquiring the Crystal and the Golden Horn would grant Ye Tian an even greater power, so he wouldn’t miss this opportunity to attack the injured Rakshasa Queen!
No sooner had he thought this than Ye Tian propelled himself with a powerful leap, soaring into the air.
Ye Tian’s Qinggong, though not taught by any famous school, allowed him to move with incredible speed.
By the time Ye Tian had located the Rakshasa Queen, there was about a kilometer between them.
But relying on his Qinggong, within a few seconds, he was only a couple hundred meters behind her!
It was only then that the Rakshasa Queen realized Ye Tian had discovered her…
“King of the Night, you’re still alive!?”
Seeing Ye Tian, the Rakshasa Queen was stunned.
Wasn’t he supposed to be dead at the bottom of a cliff?
How was he still alive?
Compelled by instinct, the Rakshasa Queen bit her lip.
As much as she wanted to eliminate Ye Tian then and there, she was not in the condition to do so…
Thus, the Rakshasa Queen had no choice but to employ her Qinggong and make a swift escape!
Just as Ye Tian had surmised, the Rakshasa Queen was seriously injured internally, which directly affected her combat strength and made it impossible for her to confront Ye Tian.
Ye Tian swiftly chased after her.
Both were extraordinary fighters whose speed was unmatched by ordinary people.
On the street, passersby were stunned to see two individuals running faster than cars.
They couldn’t believe their eyes.
Good heavens, is this a movie scene?
Are there really such formidable people in the world?
Normally, Ye Tian and the Rakshasa Queen would be evenly matched in speed, and with the Rakshasa Queen having absorbed the Power of the Crystal, her Inner Strength seemed limitless.
So, simply in terms of pursuit, Ye Tian wouldn’t be able to catch up to her, and he would eventually stop from sheer exhaustion.
However, this situation was different.
With the Rakshasa Queen injured and her speed greatly reduced, even the Power of the Crystal couldn’t make up for the disadvantage.
Therefore, initially, the Rakshasa Queen could only rely on the advantage of the terrain to evade Ye Tian’s chase.
However, the Rakshasa Queen seemed to be unaware of Ye Tian’s clairvoyant ability, so no matter how she sought to hide behind obstacles, she was always instantly found by him.
As they chased each other, the two had already left the downtown area of Los Angeles, heading toward the outskirts…
“Hey!
Billy!
Do you know how fast I can run?
My speed is so fast, I can outrun a car!”
On a country road, a convertible sped along, with two white men sitting inside, one bragging to his companion about his capabilities.
“What’s so great about being fast?
Let me tell you, Todd, my fists can punch a huge hole in a mountain!”
“Well, that’s nothing compared to me.
With just one kick, I could split this highway in half!”
Todd was not to be outdone and boasted as much as he pleased.
While the sports car was cruising, two figures suddenly flew in front of it, leaving Todd and Billy, who had been boasting, completely dumbfounded…
Todd and Billy stared with eyes wide and jaws dropped at the two people ahead, who were none other than the Rakshasa Queen and Ye Tian, who was in pursuit!
“To-Todd, that speed you said was faster than a car, was it referring to this?”
“Ye-yeah… these two, they are so-so…”
Although he spoke dismissively, Todd still deliberately slowed down the car.
The two individuals before them were not ones to be trifled with.
“Heh, you won’t get away!”
With the advantage of his physical prowess, Ye Tian had already caught up to the Rakshasa Queen.
He reached out to grab her, clutching at the Rakshasa Queen’s clothes.
The Rakshasa Queen twisted her body to dodge Ye Tian’s strike, but her speed slowed down.
Unable to escape, she had no choice but to confront Ye Tian face to face.
“King of the Night, I never expected that you would still be alive.
What good fortune must you have stumbled upon?
The claw strike I gave you used ninety percent of my strength!”
Despite her injury, the Rakshasa Queen was a formidable fighter, calm in the face of danger, and coldly questioned Ye Tian.
“My luck is indeed quite good; I survived your heavy blow and didn’t die!
But you’re not so lucky, Rakshasa Queen.
You’re wounded, and today, there’s no escape for you!”
Ye Tian responded with a smile to the Rakshasa Queen.
They stood eye to eye, with power endlessly emanating from both of them.
In addition to that power, the air was filled with a suffocating murderous aura.
Both stood their ground, itching to move, yet neither made the first move…
Behind Ye Tian and the Rakshasa Queen, Todd and Billy’s convertible came to a stop because their path was blocked.
They dared not honk at the two masters in front of them.
“Todd, they’re blocking our way?
What do we do?
Drive through them?” Billy asked, jittery with fear.
“No need, let’s see what these two can do.”
Todd chuckled bitterly and parked the convertible about thirty meters away from Ye Tian and the Rakshasa Queen.
“To actually know I’m injured…”
The Rakshasa Queen’s expression darkened slightly.
Had she not been injured, she would not have avoided Ye Tian.
“But even injured, now that I have fully mastered the Power of the Crystal, you are still no match for me!”
The Rakshasa Queen began to taunt, taking out her scimitar, its blade gleaming menacingly, making Todd and Billy behind her shudder.
No sooner had she spoken than she quickly, with scimitar raised, leaped high toward Ye Tian, aiming a blow at his forehead!
“Rakshasa Queen, this time, I will take advantage of your weakness and take your life!”
Ye Tian replied coldly.
Despite the overwhelming strike, it was nothing to Ye Tian.
He lightly scraped his foot back, retreating several meters.
The Rakshasa Queen’s scimitar viciously struck the road instead.
“Crash!”
A loud noise echoed as the solid concrete road was split in two by the Rakshasa Queen.
“To-Todd… about splitting the highway with one kick, were you referring to this…?” Billy asked, looking at the now divided highway, his voice quivering with apprehension.
“So-so, just so-so…”
Todd was equally stunned.
Were there such incredible people in this world?
Could such a strike really wield such immense destructive power?
Was he dreaming?
While Todd and Billy’s eyes bulged, the confrontation between Ye Tian and the Rakshasa Queen had already silently begun!
The Rakshasa Queen’s forte was naturally her notorious Bloody Claws, further augmented with her scimitar’s assistance, making her power endless!
And Ye Tian was no pushover; having just recovered from his injuries, his fighting spirit was intense.
His fists, like cannonballs, flew too fast to follow.
Neither of the two gave quarter…
