Chapter 101: Escape?
Lei Niu was intimidated by Yu's suddenly sharp aura and hurriedly forced out a smile to explain. "Fellow countryman has such good fortune, to have such an absolutely beautiful woman accompanying you... I momentarily lost composure. Please forgive me, forgive me!"
But Yu no longer looked at him.
The moment that malicious gaze fell upon Sasuko, this person's fate was already sealed.
He turned to Sasuko, his eyes instantly softening as he smiled slightly. "I'll explain when we get back. For now... temporarily withdraw for a bit, okay?"
Sasuko had originally thought he was angry seeing his aura suddenly change, but now hearing his gentle tone, she obediently nodded.
The next moment, Yu raised his hand and lightly waved, sending all three girls beside him into the Kamui dimension.
Yu slowly turned around.
The air in the entire hall seemed to instantly freeze, invisible pressure like a collapsing mountain.
The smile on Lei Niu's face immediately stiffened—just for looking once more, did he really need to break all pretense over two women from this world? Though admittedly they were top quality, especially that black-haired girl...
Or perhaps the compensation wasn't enough and he wanted to extort more?
He hurriedly forced out a smile, trying to salvage the situation. "Friend, if you feel it's insufficient, I can still—"
Before Lei Niu finished speaking, Yu's figure had already appeared before him like a ghost!
A punch wrapped in three hundred thousand horsepower of magnetic field force brazenly struck out without the slightest hesitation.
Lei Niu was shocked and hastily mobilized equal power to block, yet was still sent flying by this completely unpredicted fierce attack—
With a tremendous sound, he flew backward over ten miles before barely stabilizing. Though not heavily injured, his hair was disheveled and robes torn, appearing utterly wretched.
At this point, he could no longer maintain that hypocritical smile.
This guy... was serious!
The next instant, Yu's figure appeared like a shadow on this empty snowfield.
Cold wind swept up snow fragments, howling past between the two.
Lei Niu gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing the surging blood and qi, saying coldly, "I see your power is also only three hundred thousand horsepower. If we really fight to the death, victory is still uncertain! Just for two mere natives, must we fight to mutual destruction? I can still—"
Yu just felt this person talked far too much.
Those lunatics from his previous life—which one didn't decide life or death upon making a move? The fist had already hit his face, yet he still fantasized about reconciliation.
Yu launched another sharp whip kick sweeping through the air!
Lei Niu's anger was completely ignited. He'd repeatedly yielded, yet the opponent pressed forward step by step—completely ungrateful!
He roared, no longer holding back. Three hundred thousand horsepower of magnetic field power exploded forth as he clenched his fist and charged up to meet it head-on!
The moment they collided was like two meteors crashing together—
BOOM!!!
The terrifying shockwave exploded outward in a ring. Surrounding continuous snow mountains violently trembled, avalanches pouring down like furious waves.
The hundred-mile ice plain cracked in response, spider-web cracks spreading wildly as ice shards and snow dust shot skyward, covering heaven and earth.
Three hundred thousand versus three hundred thousand—this was already the extreme power this planet's magnetic field could bear.
Each clash caused earth to shake and mountains to tremble, heaven and earth shuddering.
Dozens of exchanges passed in an instant. Between intersecting fist shadows, the snowfield collapsed and ice cliffs toppled!
Yu's eyes flashed red light as he suddenly seized the opponent's momentary delay, his heavy fist brazenly striking out and solidly smashing into Lei Niu's chest!
BANG—!
Lei Niu flew backward like a kite with a severed string, consecutively smashing through dozens of towering snow peaks. The tremendous sounds of mountain collapses continued endlessly.
Lei Niu's heart had already birthed the intent to retreat.
Clearly both at three hundred thousand horsepower realm, initially he could still hold his ground, but after that strange red light appeared around the opponent, each punch's power suddenly surged dramatically and the speed became suffocatingly fast!
He would never imagine that within the "ninjutsu" he'd once despised lurked such a desperate secret technique—Eight Gates: Gate of Death.
For ordinary shinobi, this was a final dance trading life itself, but for a magnetic field powerhouse with three hundred thousand horsepower recovery, this bit of damage could basically be ignored.
Wrapped in crimson light and with the Gate of Death opened, Yu approached like an asura once more, another heavy punch directly striking toward Lei Niu's face!
Lei Niu hastily dodged his head, yet the fist still grazed half his face.
Skin split and flesh torn, blood flowing.
But the next moment, that horrifying wound healed at visible speed as if nothing had happened.
Lei Niu borrowed the force to rapidly retreat, his figure explosively withdrawing a thousand meters as he shouted, "Friend! Even if you're slightly better than me, at the same three hundred thousand horsepower realm, taking me down is definitely not easy! Must you really force mutual destruction?"
Seeing the opponent approach again, Lei Niu's eyes also flashed with ruthlessness.
He ultimately had crawled out from multiple death battles. Even having indulged in wine and women for so long, he was definitely not someone to be manipulated.
He fully concentrated magnetic field power, explosively releasing three hundred thousand horsepower along with all his body's energy—this strike, even a same-realm powerhouse taking it head-on would inevitably be severely injured!
However, Yu neither dodged nor evaded, not even showing intent to block, directly meeting his fist.
Lei Niu's heart flashed with doubt, but his hands showed no hesitation as he struck out this killing blow with full force.
Yet the next scene left him pale with shock.
Yu actually passed directly through his fist concentrated with three hundred thousand horsepower like a phantom of nothingness!
"What?!"
Lei Niu was greatly shocked. This completely exceeded his understanding.
Illusion technique? Afterimage? Or...
Before he could figure it out, Yu had already passed through his body like a ghost, elbow carrying tremendous force fiercely smashing toward his back of head!
BANG!
A muffled sound. Lei Niu's skull shattered in response, half his head nearly directly torn open by this strike!
Lei Niu had long since thrown all fighting spirit and unwillingness to the back of his mind.
From the start of combat until now, the opponent hadn't even received half a point of damage. His full-power attacks were easily penetrated through methods he completely couldn't understand... How could this be fought?!
In his past or present life, when had he ever seen such a strange ability?
Despair poured over him like ice water.
In this instant, Lei Niu completely abandoned all thoughts of resistance.
Flee! No matter what, he must escape!
Having finally obtained power to do as he pleased in this world, he absolutely couldn't just inexplicably die here!
What did he do wrong? Just wanting to play with two women, yet it brought such mortal disaster—
Regret and remorse gnawed at him, but the desire to survive overwhelmed everything.
He didn't even bother repairing that terrifying head wound. As long as the brain wasn't completely destroyed, a damaged skull didn't matter at all.
He poured all his power into his legs, fleeing toward the distant snowfield like a meteor!
After Yu succeeded with one strike, Lei Niu had already frantically fled at ten times the speed of sound, leaving only explosive sonic barriers and churning snow waves in place.
Yu stood upon the devastated snowfield without rushing to pursue.
He formed seals with one hand, body emanating Flying Thunder God's characteristic chakra fluctuation.
In a flash of golden light, he also disappeared without a trace.
