Chapter 78 Sitting on the Mountain and Watching the Tigers Fight
Behind the big tree, Jiang Han admired Teacher Tang Yue in front of him. She had a delicate and perfect oval face, charming and beautiful eyes, a high nose bridge, sexy and alluring red lips, and fair skin with a rosy glow. The more he looked at her, the more captivating she became.
Perhaps sensing Jiang Han's scrutinizing gaze, Tang Yue turned to face him and said coldly, "You brat, do you want to be a disobedient disciple? Do you know that if you do this, you'll be beaten to death with sticks?"
"Oh dear, Teacher Tang Yue, how could you say that about me? It's just that you're so charming," Jiang Han said casually.
After the group of hunter mages left, Tang Yue glared at Jiang Han with her beautiful eyes and pushed him out from behind the big tree, scolding him angrily, "All you do is talk nonsense all day long. Keep following them." This glib-tongued brat is too annoying. Every time he talks to Jiang Han, he makes her furious. If it weren't for Jiang Han's rapid increase in strength, she would have beaten him up long ago to vent her anger.
The daytime has a suppressive effect on shadow-type skills, so Tang Yue and Jiang Han dared not get too close. Soon, the two arrived at the source of the stream, which was a reservoir. The reservoir had long since dried up, and there were even some dried-up small fish on the riverbed.
"Someone else is coming." Jiang Han and Tang Yue, who were following behind, immediately hid when they saw someone else approaching.
The group of hunter mages by the reservoir stared at the four people approaching with great suspicion. The four people were arrogant and showed no fear in the face of the ten-person hunter mage team.
A man dressed in an elegant, retro Tang suit sneered, "It's you, Pan Xiong? Don't tell me you're also eyeing the fire-type spirit seed here? Let me tell you, our Dongfang family was the first to set our sights on it. If you don't want to beg in Hangzhou in the future, you'd better get lost."
"Dongfang Jun, everything should be done in a proper order. Aren't you, the Dongfang family, afraid of incurring public wrath by acting so domineeringly?" Pan Xiong said angrily.
"Does the stuff our Dongfang family sets its sights on need someone like you to criticize it?" Dongfang Jun said disdainfully.
Hidden in the shadows, Tang Yue muttered to herself, "So they're from the Dongfang family. No wonder they're so arrogant. These guys with their sky-high ambitions must be after the fire-type spirit seed. But that makes sense, since the Dongfang family is famous for fire-type spirits. They certainly wouldn't let an ordinary mage get ahead of them in Hangzhou."
"A fire-elemental Eastern family? Interesting." Jiang Han looked at the people from the Eastern family with great interest.
"What's so interesting? What mischief are you up to now?" Tang Yue looked at Jiang Han suspiciously.
If the Mu family, with its ice-based foundation, has such a deep foundation, what about the Dongfang family? We might need the Dongfang family's help when we fight the Mu family in the future, but for now, we should sit back and watch the tigers fight. After all, now is not the time to make contact with the Dongfang family.
"Let's sit back and watch the tigers fight. We'll wait for Chao He to make his move, and then, hehe."
"When did you become so cunning, kid?"
"I call this a strategy."
While Jiang Han and Tang Yue were talking, the four members of the Dongfang family had already started fighting Pan Xiong's hunter mage. All four members of the Dongfang family were fire-type, and each of their palms ignited with scorching flames as they fought. They wielded the initial-level fire spell with unparalleled skill, as if it were second nature.
The four people sent by the Eastern Family were all mid-level mages. The hunter mage team on the other side was also quite good. Apart from Pan Xiong, Scarface, and Cowboy, who were mid-level mages, the remaining seven were all elites among the beginner mages.
"You brat, let's stay away from them so we don't get caught in the crossfire." Tang Yue said, and was about to get up and pull Jiang Han away, but Jiang Han didn't move. Instead, he raised his left arm and injected magic energy into the Thunder Dragon Armguard. A light purple energy shield blocked Jiang Han and Tang Yue.
"Why leave? Wouldn't it be better to stay here and watch the show?" Jiang Han smiled and looked down at the reservoir.
The Eastern Family and the Hunter Mage team below were already locked in fierce combat, with the aftershocks of magic occasionally hitting Jiang Han and Tang Yue, but they were all absorbed by the light purple energy shield in front of them.
Dongfang Jun shouted loudly to the three people behind him, "You cover me, I'm going to let them taste the power of my Fierce Fist."
As Dongfang Jun finished speaking, the remaining three immediately formed a triangular shape, protecting him in the middle. The stars connected one by one, quickly forming star trails, the bright trails intersecting once more, transforming into a red, fire-themed star map beneath Dongfang Jun's feet.
After the fire star map appeared, Dongfang Jun was enveloped in crimson flames, and enormous waves of fire surged around him, causing the already scorching air temperature to rise even further.
"Fierce Fist, Sky-Shattering!!!"
After Dongfang Jun completed the intermediate-level fire spell, the three people in front of him immediately retreated to both sides. The flames were gathered in Dongfang Jun's right hand, and then he blasted them towards the hunter mage team. The towering flaming fist was thrown out, causing the reservoir to tremble violently. The hunter mages were so frightened by the flames that they scattered.
The cowboy man showed no intention of dodging the oncoming fiery fist, and even revealed a hint of disdain in his eyes!
"Rock Barrier, Rocky Barrier!!" The cowboy pushed his palms forward, and amidst the raging flames, a rocky barrier appeared out of thin air, blocking the hunter mages behind him.
"So that's why this guy dared not dodge the fierce punch; it turns out he has a mid-level Rock Barrier," Tang Yue said.
After the fierce punch was blocked by the rock barrier, the scarred man, who had regained his footing, made his move. A blue wind-elemental star map appeared beneath his feet. "Wind Disc, Tornado!!" In an instant, a strong wind arose. The previously hot air dissipated considerably under the gale, and the wind tornado stirred up dust on the ground, making it difficult for the four members of the Eastern Family to open their eyes.
"Damn it, they forced us to pull out our defensive magic items." Dongfang Jun said, pulling out a defensive magic item and throwing it into the air. The enormous energy protected the four members of the Dongfang family inside.
After the tornado dissipated, Dongfang Jun took out a demon-slaying tool and cleaved through the rock barrier protecting the hunter mage.
As the rock barrier was cleaved, the hunter mages were quickly defeated one by one by Dongfang Jun and his group. Dongfang Jun walked up to the hunter mages and coldly warned, "I'm giving your Hunter Alliance face today. If you don't get out of here, I'll burn you all to ashes. I believe even if the Inquisition comes, they won't find a single piece of evidence."
"We admit defeat. We don't want this fire-type spirit seed anymore." Pan Xiong gritted his teeth, helped his injured teammate up, and left.
"Teacher Tang Yue, that guy named Dongfang Jun seems to be provoking your Inquiry Council. Shouldn't you go down and teach him a lesson?" Jiang Han, hiding in the shadows, asked tentatively.
"No, as long as the Inquisition exists, those powerful families won't dare to go too far," Tang Yue said calmly.
After Pan Xiong led his injured teammates away, the four members of the Dongfang family breathed a sigh of relief. They wouldn't have gained anything if the fight had continued. The battle with Pan Xiong and his team had nearly depleted the magic energy of the four members of the Dongfang family. It has to be said that the Hunter Alliance was really difficult to deal with; they almost lost.
"They've all left. It's time to collect the fire-type spirit seed. If I can refine the fire-type spirit seed, my strength will increase significantly."
"The fire-type spirit seed is mine now. I'll compensate you with other benefits when we get back," Dongfang Jun said firmly, straightening his clothes.
