Chapter 822: Chapter 822
The noise from Fang Bai’s place alarmed the neighbors, Linghu Qianjiao, Linghu Baimei, and Dragon Maiden. The three women quickly got up and rushed to the balcony, opening the window.
"Instructor Fang, what’s going on?"
When they saw Gudela, hanging in the air like a bat across from them, the three women were startled. Dragon Maiden turned her head and saw Fang Bai standing by the window, safe and unharmed, and she let out a sigh of relief, frowning as she asked.
"Is... is this a Blood Clan expert?"
Linghu Baimei, who had previously formed a Killer Organization, and had left her mark all over the world, was well-traveled and had encountered various powerful beings. Upon seeing Gudela, she blurted out.
Hearing the words "Blood Clan," Dragon Maiden’s expression also changed slightly.
Dragon Maiden knew a bit about the Blood Clan, aware that they were a mysterious and powerful group with a naturally robust physique and ancient meta-human inheritance, very powerful indeed.
It was said that the most powerful among the Blood Clan not only possessed unimaginable meta-human abilities but also had extremely long lifespans, living hundreds or even thousands of years with ease.
The Blood Clan member in the air across from them, with bat-like wings and a very powerful aura, was undoubtedly a strong figure within the Blood Clan.
Fang Bai didn’t know much about the Blood Clan, only that they were a legendary existence from the Western world, sustaining themselves mainly on blood, and that the weaker Blood Clan members could not withstand sunlight and could only be active at night.
But usually, the Blood Clan lived in the Western world. What were they doing in Huaxia?
The Blood Clan expert before him had initially targeted Linghu Baimei next door, but upon seeing himself appear, had instead attacked him. Why did he do this? What was the purpose?
A flash of insight suddenly crossed Fang Bai’s mind, vaguely guessing that this matter might be related to Neo, the owner of the luxury cruise they were on before.
Regarding Neo, and the Chinese-American businessman Zhao Shengshi who had incited Neo to target the three of them on the cruise, Fang Bai and the Linghu sisters had no intention of letting them go.
After coming ashore, Fang Bai had Dragon Maiden arrange some "Dragon Guard" members to monitor Neo and Zhao Shengshi’s movements at all times. As for how to deal with Neo and Zhao Shengshi, after discussing with the Linghu sisters and Dragon Maiden, it was decided that Dragon Maiden would arrange a few "Dragon Guard" Earth Level experts to secretly take action the day after Fang Bai and the others left Donghai City, making them disappear without a trace.
According to the information on Neo held by the "Dragon Guard," this man had a very close connection with America’s Statue of Liberty. In the past, the "Dragon Guard" might have hesitated to kill Neo, but now, the "Dragon Guard" had radically grown stronger, with Fang Bai, Long Jingtian, Linghu Qianjiao, and Linghu Baimei, these four Heaven Level experts at the helm, why would they care about the Statue of Liberty?
Gudela floated in the air, about ten meters away from Fang Bai, his gaze flickering as he looked at Fang Bai and asked in a deep voice.
Having just exchanged blows with Fang Bai and having suffered a bit, he knew that Fang Bai’s physical robustness and strength were not inferior to his own, which made him somewhat wary and reluctant to launch another attack rashly.
"Heh... shouldn’t I be the one asking that question?"
Fang Bai gazed intently at Gudela and coldly asked, "Who are you?"
During this period of external training, Fang Bai considered that he might travel around the world, and not understanding the languages of various countries would be a big problem. So, he crammed along the way, and with his super-strong memory, he had basically mastered the most commonly used languages globally within just a few months, making everyday communication no longer an issue.
Gudela spoke pure English, so Fang Bai could easily understand him.
"I am the Blood Clan Prince, Gudela!"
Seeing that his identity as a member of the Blood Clan was recognized, Gudela no longer hid it.
"The territory of the Blood Clan lies in the Western world. What brings you to our Huaxia?"
The Dragon Maiden’s gaze suddenly turned fierce, and she said with murderous aura, "If you intend to harm our Huaxia people, we, the ’Dragon Guards,’ will never let you go!"
Gudela was taken aback, then said, "Before coming to Huaxia, I heard from that youngster Sardin that ’Dragon Guards’ is the most powerful meta-human organization in Huaxia... Are all four of you ’Dragon Guards’?"
Fang Bai and the others knew the Sardin mentioned by Gudela must be the leader of the ’Holy Temple,’ and thought, since Gudela referred to Sardin as ’that youngster’ when Sardin was already over a hundred years old, Gudela must be much older than him.
It seems the saying that ’Blood Clan live long’ is indeed true.
"That’s right, we are all members of the ’Dragon Guards’!"
The Dragon Maiden sneered, "Gudela, right? I don’t care what your identity is, if you follow the laws in our Huaxia, we won’t trouble you, but if you dare to commit crimes and act recklessly, then prepare to face our punishment!"
Gudela laughed heartily, "Punishment? By you four unweaned toddlers? Ridiculous! You, girl, speak disrespectfully and offend me. I’ll drain your blood first!"
As Gudela spoke, his wings vibrated, his figure flashed like electricity, soaring toward the Dragon Maiden.
With a speed comparable to instantaneous movement, a natural ability of strong Blood Clan members, Gudela charged forward and in a blink appeared in front of the Dragon Maiden on the balcony, reaching out to grab her.
Gudela saw that among the four, the Dragon Maiden was the weakest, and seizing her presented the greatest opportunity, so he suddenly struck at her.
"Sister Dragon Maiden, be careful!"
Linghu Baimei and Linghu Qianjiao were Heaven Level Martial Artists and reacted quickly. As soon as Gudela moved, they understood his purpose was to attack the Dragon Maiden. Laughing, they realized that with their current strength, they couldn’t fly through the air to save her and could only urgently warn the Dragon Maiden.
Meanwhile, Fang Bai was already guarding against Gudela, saw him attacking the Dragon Maiden, knew she was no match, took a deep breath, circulated his Wind System Technique "Wind Art," furiously mobilizing the Wind Essence Qi in his body, and stepped out of the window.
Unlike Gudela flying with his wings, Fang Bai hovered in the air by leveraging the power of Wind Essence Qi. However, at his current realm, the Wind Essence Qi could not circulate endlessly, hence he could only maintain his position in the air for a moment and not for extended periods.
Nevertheless, a moment was enough for Fang Bai to fend off Gudela’s attack on the Dragon Maiden.
When Fang Bai fully deployed his "Dragon Soaring to the Heavens" movement technique, it wasn’t slower than Gudela’s instantaneous movement. As he left the window, his figure drew an almost invisible black line in the night sky. The next moment, he appeared in the night air in front of the Dragon Maiden who stood on the balcony, confronting Gudela across the void.
