Chapter 1614: The Powerful Law of Space

Ling Zikun's face was extremely ugly. He looked at Ruoxu and said in a deep voice, "Brother Ruoxu, are you playing me? Sending an elder to deal with my disciple—isn't that bullying the weak?"

In truth, Ling Zikun knew he was quibbling.

Ye Yuan was even younger than Gu Han, so this argument was completely untenable.

If anything, it could only be said that Gu Han's talent was far inferior to Ye Yuan's.

A three-star divine alchemist with such terrifying talent—how despairing!

Over the years, he had always been smug about taking on Gu Han as his disciple and loved to take him around challenging others.

In recent years, Gu Han had hardly lost.

But today, he had truly hit a snag.

Ye Yuan looked like a mere brat, yet this brat was already an elder!

Ruoxu was not so easily fooled. He chuckled and said, "Brother Zikun, Elder Ye is an elder of our Alchemist Tower. I don't have the authority to command him to teach your disciple a lesson. Moreover, although Elder Ye is an elder of the Alchemist Tower, he is much younger than Gu Han. If we're talking about the strongest young genius in our Sky Eagle Imperial City, it should be him! Your accusation is groundless."

Ruoxu felt elated, feeling gratitude toward Ye Yuan for the first time.

Over the past month, he had suffered quite a few setbacks.

He had never been able to hold his head high in front of Ling Zikun.

Ling Zikun's face darkened like the bottom of a pot. He said in a deep voice, "Sophistry! No matter what, he is an elder. How can he compete with my disciple?"

Ruoxu glanced at him and smiled. "Elder Ye actually disdains to make a move against your disciple. You don't know, but he casually trained that girl Ning Siyu for a few days, and she defeated my disciple. If I'm not mistaken, he's here to stand up for Ning Siyu."

Ling Zikun's expression shifted uncertainly. He said in a deep voice, "Hmph! So what? My disciple excels in both alchemy and martial arts. Once he defeats your Elder Ye, your Sky Eagle Imperial City will lose all face!"

Ruoxu heard this but did not refute.

His meaningful smile made Ling Zikun's heart skip a beat.

Could it be that this Elder Ye was also a martial arts expert?

Impossible!

This Elder Ye was so young and had already reached the pinnacle of alchemy. How could his martial arts be stronger than Gu Han's?

But then, what was with Ruoxu's expression?

...

"Senior Brother, this Elder Ye's alchemy talent is terrifying! But in martial arts, he definitely can't compare to Junior Brother!"

The sword-wielding youth nodded. "Junior Brother has fused the Law of Wind and the Law of Fire, and his comprehension of both laws is extremely high. Ordinary martial artists at the same realm are no match for him. What's more, this Elder Ye's realm is lower than his."

"Heh, this Elder Ye thinks he's a genius, but he's too arrogant! Even I, if I were at the same realm as Junior Brother, would definitely not be his match."

The sword-wielding youth smiled. "Once Junior Brother defeats this Elder Ye, Sky Eagle Imperial City will be utterly disgraced."

Gu Han looked at Ye Yuan arrogantly and said disdainfully, "Make your move! I'm at a higher realm than you, so I'll let you have three moves, lest people say I'm bullying you."

When he said this, the crowd again showed strange expressions.

Elder Ye was someone who had comprehended the Law of Space, and he was offering to let him have three moves?

This... how thick-skinned was this kid!

Sure enough, Ye Yuan smiled. "As an elder, how could I take advantage of a junior? If anyone should yield, it should be me. How about this: you go ahead and attack, and I won't fight back. If you can even touch a corner of my robe, I'll lose."

Gu Han looked as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He thought this Elder Ye must have lost his mind.

Hadn't he heard that he had swept through the Martial Tower?

Didn't he know that he had fused the Law of Wind and the Law of Fire?

That must be it—he definitely didn't know!

Showing off?

Relying on his status as an elder to save face?

You're only an elder of the Alchemist Tower, not the Martial Tower!

Gu Han's fellow disciples were also stunned at first, then exchanged smiles.

"This Elder Ye is an interesting fellow," the sword-wielding youth said with a smile.

Gu Han laughed derisively. "My Elder Ye, you said it yourself! If you lose, you'll still have to bow to me six times!"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "Of course. I keep my word."

Hearing this, Gu Han's expression darkened, and a powerful aura spread out.

In previous battles, Gu Han hadn't even gone all out.

But this time, he decided to go all out.

The man before him made him somewhat jealous!

For the first time, this genius was being challenged!

He simply couldn't imagine that a young man so much younger than him had already become an elder of the Alchemist Tower.

To him, this was a disgrace.

"Wind and Fire Afterglow!"

The two laws fused seamlessly, and two kinds of terrifying spiritual energy, stirred by the power of the laws, displayed overwhelming might.

Seeing this, everyone showed expressions of shock.

Only then did they realize how strong Gu Han's talent was!

So he hadn't even used his full strength against the geniuses of Sky Eagle Imperial City!

At this moment, fire borrowed the wind's momentum, and wind fueled the fire's power. The powerful attack came crashing down on Ye Yuan.

This kind of force made one's heart race.

Yet Ye Yuan remained calm and unmoving, as if he had no intention of dodging.

Seeing this, Gu Han couldn't help but sneer, "Courting death!"

He was very confident in his attack. Wasn't Ye Yuan's refusal to dodge or evade simply courting death?

But the next moment, Gu Han's eyes nearly popped out.

"Impossible! How... how can this be!" Gu Han looked utterly incredulous.

Gu Han's attack, several zhang away from Ye Yuan, suddenly vanished.

When it reappeared, it had passed through Ye Yuan and landed behind him.

"Boom!"

The formation shook violently as the attack struck the protective formation solidly.

"Senior Brother, what happened? That Elder Ye didn't move at all, so why did Junior Brother's attack pass right through him?"

The sword-wielding man's face changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "This... this is the Law of Space! Am I seeing things? How is this possible?"

"Law of Space? Senior Brother, are you mistaken? How could someone comprehend the Law of Space at the Return to Void realm?" the sword-wielding man's junior brother said in disbelief.

The sword-wielding man was full of shock. "It's definitely the Law of Space, no mistake! Moreover, his comprehension of the Law of Space is already very high! Junior... Junior Brother has lost! He has no chance at all! No wonder Elder Ye dared to make such a bold claim—he had actually comprehended the Law of Space!"

Gu Han's face was extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, "I... I don't believe I can't deal with you!"

With that, Gu Han moved, darting toward Ye Yuan like lightning.
