Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Unbeatable when United
"Eh?"
When the man was less than ten meters away from Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang, he suddenly stopped, looking at them with a surprised face.
He sensed the change in them at this moment with sharp acuity.
They appeared to be just standing there hand in hand, but now they radiated a aura of perfect harmony, as if both had become one.
These two young individuals, whom he had not taken seriously before, now seemed different, as if in a moment they had both turned into exceedingly sharp blades.
From afar, they appeared fiercely cold and grim.
Close up, they were injurious.
An inexplicable sense of crisis welled up, giving the man an absurd feeling.
How could this be?
Was it an illusion?
Shocked, the man unconsciously stopped in his tracks and observed the two from a distance of ten meters.
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang exchanged glances. Qin Yanyang’s face turned red, and seeing her expression, Yang Fei felt his heartbeat quicken.
She was still suffering from internal injuries, and her blush, combined with her demeanour of delicate femininity, was fully revealed, especially at the moment she shyly lowered her head in embarrassment, which Yang Fei found as enchanting as Tong Yunshu at her most bewitching.
Though her appearance made his heart race and his finger itch to do something to Qin Yanyang, Yang Fei quickly regained his composure.
With a formidable enemy present and in a life-or-death situation, how could he entertain thoughts of romance?
Although he didn’t know why such a wondrous change occurred when they held hands and activated their True Qi together, sensing the mysterious aura gave him confidence—he felt as if he had regained seventy to eighty percent of his combat strength. When facing a formidable enemy, his expression was fearless, and so was his heart.
"Maintain this stance, don’t separate," Yang Fei whispered.
Listening to him, Qin Yanyang blushed even more, somehow feeling that there was something off about what he said.
But she still nodded obediently.
Then, she looked up at Yang Fei and said, "Let me do it."
Yang Fei shook his head, "Of course, it’s me. How can I let a woman face danger?"
Ten meters away, the man carefully examined the two and said in surprise, "What’s going on with you two? Your abilities aren’t strong, so how can you achieve such an effect?"
Neither Yang Fei nor Qin Yanyang knew why, and they simply couldn’t answer him.
Besides, even if they knew, they would not tell him.
Yang Fei looked at the man and said, "Make your move. Let me see just how strong a National Guardian Level from the Divine Continent’s Martial World really is. Just don’t disappoint me!"
At that moment, Yang Fei felt a surge of confidence, and the aura of looking down on the world as if invincible once again enveloped him.
Qin Yanyang glanced at him and felt his invincible spirit, her face beaming with a splendid smile.
"My man should be just like this," Qin Yanyang thought.
The man opposite them paused, then sneered, "Even though I’m surprised by the effect of your cooperation, do you really think that will help you escape doom? Daydreaming."
With the last word spoken, he stepped forward.
Without any extravagant movements, he walked toward them like an ancient ferocious beast, imposing like a towering mountain crashing down, suffocating.
Yang Fei’s pupils shrank slightly as True Qi coursed through his body, and he threw a punch.
As the True Qi flowed within him, he realized that Qin Yanyang’s True Qi had also been mobilized.
Under these circumstances, it was as if their True Qi was layered on top of each other.
It was true that Qin Yanyang was injured, and even after being treated by Yang Fei, she hadn’t fully recovered, meaning she couldn’t mobilize all her True Qi to achieve the best combat effectiveness.
However, the total amount of True Qi developed in her body remained the same.
Now that her True Qi could be utilized by Yang Fei, and although he could only mobilize about half of his own, the addition of Qin Yanyang’s True Qi, along with the special effect of their merged Qi that was more than the sum of their parts, suddenly made Yang Fei feel as if his combat strength had soared much higher than when he fought Tong Yan.
With that punch, Yang Fei had a strong belief that he could annihilate anything.
The man’s eyes hardened, and with a cold snort, he threw his own punch.
Boom!
The void between them shattered in an instant as the two fists collided fiercely.
"Boom!"
A dull thud echoed through the mountains and forests, startling birds into flight and animals into alarm.
Yang Fei’s body shook, and he was ultimately unable to keep his footing, pulling Qin Yanyang with him as they both floated backward several meters.
The relentless momentum of their opponent was also instantly obstructed, and after pausing briefly, he stopped in place.
The combined strength of Yang Fei’s fifty percent power and the True Yuan from Qin Yanyang’s body met head-on with the blow from an Innate Realm fighter.
Although they were at a disadvantage, they were not defeated.
The effect of this strike made both Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang’s eyes light up with delight in their hearts.
The stiff face of their opponent twitched, impenetrable to emotion, but the shock was clearly visible in the light radiating from his deep eyes.
"How can this be?" the man exclaimed in disbelief, finally unable to hold back as he looked at the two standing hand in hand.
His punch had not been his full strength, but it was certainly a genuine blow from an Innate Realm fighter.
In yesterday’s fight with Qin Yanyang, although she had displayed exceptional talent and combat experience, she still couldn’t match him head-on.
If it hadn’t been for her incredibly fast Qinggong technique and the continuous consumption of medicine to maintain her True Qi, she wouldn’t have been able to escape at all.
Yet now, merely by uniting together, they could exhibit such combat power, which was truly unexpected.
The man’s gaze lingered more on Yang Fei.
He could sense that when the two joined forces, they seemed to create a unique energy field that made his heart palpitate, but he was unaware of the reason behind it and instead attributed it more to having underestimated Yang Fei’s strength.
"Kid, what Realm are you?" the man asked, looking at Yang Fei.
Yang Fei replied with a smile, "The Realm isn’t important, what’s important is you can’t kill us."
At these words, the man’s pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes brimmed with chilling killing intent.
The aura around him suddenly escalated, and without any breeze, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang sharply perceived an invisible energy fluctuating around his body.
Innate True Qi released!
An Innate Realm fighter can generate Innate Gang Qi, possessing a protective Innate Gang Qi that offers tremendous defense.
Peak Masters above the Energy Transformation Seventh Rank are already fearless against small firearms like handguns.
Having stepped into the Innate Realm and shielded by Innate Gang Qi, along with their bodies tempered to an extremely strong state, they would not even be harmed by sniper bullets.
If this wasn’t the case, how could Innate Realm fighters claim to be of the National Guardian Level?
The individual power of National Guardian Level fighters is terrifyingly immense; once they go berserk, they become true killing machines. But trying to take them down is as hard as reaching the heavens.
With their heightened perception of danger far beyond that of ordinary people and sniper bullets incapable of taking them down, only the power of nuclear weapons might work against them.
But even utilizing nuclear power is incredibly difficult against them.
After all, they are agile and hard to pin down.
At this moment, as the man utilized his Innate Gang Qi, he became deadly serious.
He strode forward, and the air around him seemed to clear a path.
Yang Fei felt as though the man had suddenly transformed into a fierce ancient beast, and his own heart tightened, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.
Then, he felt Qin Yanyang’s hand grip his more tightly.
It was like she was giving him courage and also saying they’d live or die together, that she was with him.
"Kid, try taking another punch from me," growled the man, throwing another punch.
It was an unremarkable punch, and its speed didn’t seem particularly fast.
But this punch blocked all ways out, leaving no place to escape, and forcing a head-on confrontation.
Yang Fei had never intended to back down. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes as he threw a punch in response.
"Po Gang!"
Previously, he used Po Gang to instantly kill his opponents, but now, he had found the perfect use for this technique.
Po Gang, specifically designed to break through Gang Qi!
