Chapter 225: Chapter 225

After Zhao Letian and Wanyan Zheng managed to stabilize their figures, they both looked towards the black-clad youth with a heavy expression.

The Daluo Palm Seal performed by the black-clad youth was a Palm Technique, even though it's just a Yellow-level Early Stage Martial Technique, it was enough to handle them, who had yet to master any Martial Technique.

Moreover, this black-clad youth obviously hadn't fully mastered this Palm Technique either, otherwise that strike just now would have done more than just send them flying; it might have been enough to kill them outright.

"Royal Capital's top ten talents? The first place in the last assessment? Hehe, this time I truly caught two big fish. Remember, the person who kills you is the great Prince Niu Li of the Iron Bull Tribe, die now."

The black-clad youth coldly swept his gaze over Zhao Letian and cast a triumphant cold smile. Speaking these words, a golden light appeared on his palm, ready to strike them again.

"Hold on! I am willing to give you the Jade Token, can you let me go? You surely know that my Wanyan family is a super clan in the Royal Capital, not someone your Iron Bull Tribe can afford to provoke. Harming me would only bring disaster to your tribe, whereas letting me go will earn you goodwill from the Wanyan family, which would be greatly beneficial for your tribe's future. You better think carefully."

Wanyan Zheng spoke with a sullen face, his expression extremely ugly.

He was one of the distinguished ten talents, yet now he had to beg a prince of an unknown tribe, it was a great humiliation. If he could regain his strength, he could kill numerous such trash with a single slap.

But now, the opponent had mastered a Martial Technique and was stronger than him; he had no choice but to bow his head.

"Tsk tsk, one of the Royal Capital's ten talents actually bowing and begging me, that's rare. Alright, I might consider your proposition, but you have to give me the Jade Token first."

Niu Li's hand paused in mid-air, smugly holding back his strike while speaking proudly.

"Fine, I'll give it to you."

Wanyan Zheng gritted his teeth, holding back the rage in his heart, nodded and took off the Jade Pendant from his waist, intending to hand it to Niu Li. He remembered this person, once he learned a Martial Technique, he would definitely kill him.

Just then, Zhao Letian suddenly darted, enduring the pain in his body, turned into a blur and rushed towards the distance.

He didn't have a background like Wanyan Zheng's, neither could he coerce or bribe Niu Li; staying here would only mean death.

"Escape? Where can you escape, Daluo Palm Seal."

Niu Li coldly looked at Zhao Letian, scoffing dismissively while once again launching a golden Swastika Palm Seal directly at Zhao Letian.

"Go." Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе (М|V|L0ЕМРYR) hоsts thе оriginаl.

Just then, seizing the opportunity, Wanyan Zheng swiftly retrieved his own Jade Token and also, with a flicker of his figure, dashed towards the distance.

"Dammit, Daluo Palm Seal, die!"

Niu Li's expression darkened with burning anger, as he launched another golden Swastika Palm Seal towards Wanyan Zheng.

At the same time, Zhao Letian, who had not gotten far, unavoidably got hit solidly by the golden Swastika Palm Seal on his back; he spewed a large mouthful of fresh blood but did not stop, instead withstanding the severe pain across his body and leveraging the power of that palm, propelled himself even faster forward.

On the other side, Wanyan Zheng was also hit by the golden Swastika Palm Seal, spewing out a large mouthful of blood as well, using the powerful momentum to accelerate towards the distance.

"Niu Li, this young master remembers you, if you dare to come after me, you and your tribe, just wait for death."

Wanyan Zheng threatened as he fled.

Niu Li frowned and cursed through gritted teeth.

Logically, Wanyan Zheng was closer to him, and chasing after Wanyan Zheng seemed more feasible, but Wanyan Zheng's threat made him hesitate.

"Zhao Zilong, it's your bad luck. If I can't kill one of the top ten talents of the Royal Capital, taking you down, the top scorer of the last assessment, is also not bad."

Niu Li coldly watched Zhao Letian's retreating figure, then his figure flickered, and he quickly chased after him.

Originally, his speed was no different from Zhao Letian's, and catching up to Zhao Letian was not easy. But now, Zhao Letian was injured and his speed had decreased, so he was certain he could catch up.

Feeling Niu Li chasing from behind, Zhao Letian frowned.

At this moment, whether it was speed or strength, he was no match for Niu Li. Once caught, death was the only way out.

"The only option now is to run towards the direction of the teleportation formation."

Zhao Letian's thoughts whirled rapidly, he flipped his hand to take out the Jade Token and immediately ran in the direction indicated by the arrow, hoping he could find the teleportation formation before Niu Li caught up.

Though leaving the Secret Realm directly through the teleportation formation at this time was shameful, it was better than losing his life.

This didn't prove that Zhao Letian's talent was inferior to others, just that his luck wasn't good. He had been entangled by Wanyan Zheng as soon as he entered the Secret Realm, and then met someone who had learned Martial Technique. There was simply no way to save himself, just surviving was already quite an achievement.

"Heh heh, trying to find the teleportation formation, you're indeed wise. However, do you think I, the prince, would let you leave alive? Daluo Palm Seal, kill."

Niu Li noticed Zhao Letian's intention, a cruel sneer appeared on his lips, and he once again unleashed a golden Swastika Palm Seal, blasting it towards Zhao Letian.

Zhao Letian couldn't dodge and was struck, vomiting a large mouthful of blood, feeling nearly broken inside. However, propelled by the impact of that palm, he was thrown forward more than ten meters, increasing the distance between them.

"Still trying to hang on? The next palm will send you on your way."

Niu Li sneered disdainfully, gold light surged in his hand again, waiting for the distance to close a bit more before obliterating Zhao Letian with one palm.

Zhao Letian was extremely anxious, his complexion very ugly, and he didn't even have time to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth. His internal condition was very bad, unable to withstand another palm from Niu Li. But as far as he could see, there was still no sign of the teleportation formation.

Soon, the distance between them closed again, and without hesitation, Niu Li unleashed another palm.

"No! How can I, Zhao Letian, die here?"

At the critical moment, Zhao Letian let out a roar of unwillingness in his heart, summoning all his strength, his speed suddenly surged, and he moved a few steps to the side, barely avoiding the golden Swastika Palm Seal.

"What's that? A bow and arrow, a good opportunity, die."

Just then, Zhao Letian caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye. Not far from him, there was a One-Star Lower Grade Spiritual Artifact level bow and a cluster of arrows, so he immediately grabbed them, turned around, and shot an arrow straight at Niu Li's forehead.
