Chapter 536 Powerful Divine Envoy
Chen Yang's expression turned serious. Just as he had expected, Wang Zhiqiang was incredibly powerful. Even with one arm severed, he fought like a ferocious tiger, far beyond the capabilities of an ordinary Grandmaster.
In the past, Chen Yang would have been flustered facing Wang Zhiqiang, forced to exchange injuries or even lives.
But now, a smile played on Chen Yang's lips. The next moment, he activated the "Heavenly Step" secret art, his figure becoming ethereal in an instant.
Wang Zhiqiang was fast, wielding no weapons, his hands and body serving as his armament.
A mere collision with him could shatter not just a martial artist, but even a boulder, a mountain, or a steel alloy.
Simultaneously, the flames erupting from his body were terrifying.
Wang Zhiqiang was full of confidence. As a disciple of the Saint Moon Divine Venerable, he was certain he could crush any human in this world. Even though he had been injured by Chen Yang's trickery and lost an arm, it mattered not. Chen Yang was by no means his match.
Wang Zhiqiang transformed into a whirlwind of fire, a blur of motion, charging directly at Chen Yang.
However, in the very next moment, Chen Yang, who had been standing still a second ago, suddenly appeared to his left.
Wang Zhiqiang narrowed his eyes. He hadn't anticipated Chen Yang's speed. He swung his arm, rotating rapidly, and continued his pursuit.
Chen Yang was like a wisp of smoke, appearing ten meters away in the next instant.
Wang Zhiqiang grew even angrier, charging at Chen Yang like a rampaging, fiery rhinoceros, heedless of everything.
Chen Yang's movements were unpredictable, shifting left and right, sometimes even appearing in mid-air. Wang Zhiqiang was toyed with, crashing around aimlessly, yet unable to lay a hand on Chen Yang.
In the blink of an eye, the two had moved a hundred meters away.
Zhou Shanshan, sitting on the ground, stared with her mouth agape. Her perception of reality was shattered once again.
She had never imagined a human could be engulfed in flames, nor that human speed could rival a car! No, even a car's top speed couldn't match such agile maneuvering. Was this the limit of humanity? Could human muscle cells truly achieve such feats?
Zhou Shanshan swallowed hard. She hadn't expected Chen Yang to appear so suddenly, nor that this seemingly simple, unremarkable man was so powerful.
Moreover, Zhou Shanshan understood that Chen Yang was deliberately evading, intending to draw Wang Zhiqiang far away.
He must have been afraid that their fight would affect her, right?
This man, who had spoken so intimately with her and even shared a bed, was not only powerful but also considerate.
Zhou Shanshan's eyes widened. She forgot her fear, only wanting to understand where humanity's potential truly lay.
If everyone in this world was like Chen Yang and Professor Wang, leaping ten meters in the blink of an eye and clearing twenty-meter high jumps with a simple leap, was this truly the human world?
What would the Olympics be like with such athletes?
What a sensation it would be if such masters appeared in boxing matches!
If assassins trained to this level, wouldn't they wreak havoc throughout the city in an instant?
Zhou Shanshan shook her head, her worldview being reshaped repeatedly. She watched the two figures move at incredible speed.
The next moment, a flash of blade light streaked through the air. With a "shrieking" sound, Wang Zhiqiang's body split in half, and he collapsed to the ground. The battle was finally over.
Chen Yang, holding a curved blade, looked at the fallen Wang Zhiqiang. He raised his weapon again and said, "Now I can send you to meet your god. Since you trust him so much, I'm sure you won't fear me cutting off your head now, will you? After all, you'll be dying for your god."
Wang Zhiqiang on the ground was terrified. The flames in his eyes slowly extinguished, and a sliver of reason returned. He looked at Chen Yang in disbelief, unable to comprehend why Chen Yang's strength was so immense.
Wang Zhiqiang shook his head, his voice filled with dread. "No, don't kill me, don't kill me! Who... who exactly are you? How can you be so powerful? What kind of footwork did you just use?"
"The Divine Venerable once said that when I burn my life with divine fire, I am invincible!"
"My speed can surpass all humans in the world. Why, in front of you, am I like a toddling child, unable to even touch you?"
Chen Yang smiled and replied, "The footwork I use is not created by humans, so it's normal that you don't know it. Enough of this nonsense. Our goals are likely the same: we both came for Long Baijinsan's treasure. Thank you for scouting the location for me earlier. Now, I will send you to meet your god."
Wang Zhiqiang on the ground immediately begged for mercy. "No, no, no, please don't kill me, Mr. Chen, please don't kill me. Keeping me alive will benefit you."
"Besides, aren't you curious about the Saint Moon Divine Venerable? Aren't you curious about his abilities?"
"Keep me alive, and I can tell you everything. I can also find Long Baijinsan's treasure vault for you and try my best to help you open it. Without me, you won't be able to enter."
Wang Zhiqiang shook his head incessantly, pleading to save his life.
Chen Yang stroked his chin, then took out a golden key from his pocket and said, "You don't need to worry about the treasure vault, because I have the key."
"However, I am a bit curious. Since you keep claiming to be an apostle of the Saint Moon Divine Venerable, why are you so afraid of death now? And you're even willing to reveal his secrets to me. That's quite strange."
Wang Zhiqiang quickly said, "I... of course I'm afraid of death! I became his apostle because he could grant me power! In fact, before that, I was just an ordinary person who had practiced martial arts for decades but could never become a martial artist!"
"Can you believe it? Three years ago, I was just a martial arts enthusiast, a retired engineer who practiced Tai Chi and walked birds in the park. The Saint Moon Divine Venerable found me. He gave me just one drop of blood, and I gained my current strength."
Chen Yang had intended to act immediately, but upon hearing Wang Zhiqiang's words, his brow furrowed.
If Wang Zhiqiang was telling the truth, it would be terrifying, meaning the Saint Moon Divine Venerable could create countless super masters in an instant!
Keep in mind that Wang Zhiqiang's strength far surpassed that of an ordinary Grandmaster. If he were to commit evil, ordinary martial artists would be powerless to stop him!
Even in China, the special forces and the Three Great War Gods would struggle to bring such a person to justice.
As Chen Yang was deep in thought, Wang Zhiqiang on the ground suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. In the next moment, a golden blood bead fell at Chen Yang's feet. With a "boom," bloody flames instantly engulfed Chen Yang.
Wang Zhiqiang laughed maniacally and said, "Indeed, you are still too young! No matter how heaven-defying your strength is, you will ultimately die under my Saint Moon Divine Venerable's divine fire!"
