Chapter 97: Yi Ming's Narrow Escape from Death (Third Update)

  Easy home testing platform.

  At this time, the battle on the stage also reached a critical juncture.

  Only to see that Yi Ming kicked the platform with one foot, and directly rushed into the sky. Yi Bu regretted it after realizing Yi Ming's movement, also raised his head, staring at the fiery red spot in the air.

  "Empty!" Yi Ming, who had rushed to the highest point, let out a loud shout and used the most powerful move in his "Inferno Fist", "Empty".

  He saw him spinning like a meteor, rushing straight down towards Yi Bu Hui.

  Yi Bu Hui wanted to dodge, but unfortunately, his breath was completely locked down, and he didn't have any chance to dodge.

  "If you want to die, then don't blame me!" A ruthless glint flashed in Yi Bu Hui's eyes.

  At this critical moment, he was called to withdraw the fighting energy from his sword body, and with one hand, he dropped the long knife in his hand.

  "Come out! Swift Shadow!" As soon as he let out a loud shout, his outstretched hand suddenly burst forth with a surge of cyan light, and a pale blue long knife materialized.

  "Nine Revolutions Shatter the Void!" With another loud shout, Yi Bu Hui grasped the hilt of his sword with both hands, and bursts of blue light shot out from his body.

  At this time, Yi Ming who was rushing down also came into contact with the tip of the knife held high by Yi Bu Hui.

  There was no fracture as he had imagined, but instead the knife suddenly rotated in reverse.

  "This"

  The sound of golden drums was incessant in one's ears.

  "Ah... die!" Amidst another spinning figure, a loud shout suddenly rang out.

  "Not good!" Yi Yun's face suddenly changed as he rushed between the two spinning figures.

  "Disperse!" A large hand waved, and a red light directly shattered the two lights. As the lights broke, two figures also appeared.

  Only these two people were seen, both with tattered clothes and disheveled hair. Yi Ming was covered in blood and had already fainted after being separated by Yi Yun.

  Yi Yun saw this and suddenly became furious. Those eyes full of anger stared tightly at Yi Bu Hui, who was panting heavily with his mouth wide open.

  "You detestable little brat, don't you know the rules of martial competition?" The elder who was only one step behind Yi Yun in terms of seniority rebuked Yi Wu Xie loudly after checking Yi Ming's injuries.

  Looking at the two people in front of him who were glaring at him, Yi Buwu forced out a smile and said: "I don't know either, at that time, I naturally used this unfamiliar fighting technique, and later on, I couldn't control it at all."

  Yi Yun's eyebrows furrowed deeply upon hearing this.

  What others said wasn't wrong, it was his own son who used that move first, and he was just counterattacking. Moreover, losing control of his not-so-familiar fighting skills is a common occurrence, nothing to be surprised about. But then, doesn't that mean his own son has been injured for nothing?

  As a head of household, he must be fair, but as a father, he also has to give his son an explanation and do what a father should do.

  This dilemma really made Yi Yun feel anxious and worried.

  After thinking for a long time, Yi Yun finally decided to handle the matter impartially. After all, they were now in the arena of the family martial arts competition, and he couldn't openly favor his own son. Of course, whether or not he would do something else afterwards, Yi Yun couldn't guarantee. For now, the most important thing was to first take a look at Yi Ming's injuries.

  After a moment's thought, Yi Yun glared at Yi Bu Xi and hastily examined his son's injuries.

  "It's okay!" After checking, Yi Yun let out a relieved sigh. Fortunately, he had stopped the bleeding in time, and now Yi Ming was just unconscious due to excessive blood loss, but otherwise fine.

  "Household master, let's send Yi Ming down first!" The elder beside him saw that Yi Yun had checked and had a relaxed expression, so he knew that Yi Ming was not seriously injured, and thus proposed.

  "All right then." He nodded and had someone come over to carry the unconscious Yiming away for treatment.

  "Alright, let's continue the match." After standing up, Yi Yun announced to everyone, and then returned to his seat.

  It wasn't until then that Yi Xinglong dared to walk onto the high platform. Earlier, when the Great Elder and the Master were present, he didn't dare go up. After all, on the surface, Yi Bu was still under his care. If he had been dragged in by mistake, then his position as an executive would have come to an end.

  "This kid, doesn't even know the severity of his actions." After Yi Xinglong came up, the first thing he did was to glare fiercely at Yi Bu's innocent face, and then announced the result of the competition, of course, Yi Bu won.

  ......

  After Yi stepped down from the high platform, Yi Chi kept staring at his back.

  "If I'm not mistaken, that should be a top-grade Wind Attribute Dou Technique just now. How can such a small side branch have a technique of this level?" Yi Chi furrowed his brow and gazed at the receding figure in thought.

  After thinking about it, there are only a few possibilities anyway.

  There are three possibilities, the first being that he inherited it from his seniors, but this possibility is low. The second is that he was lucky and discovered a high-level expert's cave or something similar and gained some benefits. The third, which makes Yi Chi uneasy, is that there is a mysterious organization behind him, similar to the one Yi Xing and others are in, and it's possible that his skills were awarded by this organization.

  "He's really a mysterious guy! What's most annoying is that he seems to have set his sights on me." Thinking back to those few encounters, it now seems like Yi Bu Hui was intentionally getting close to himself, but who knows what kind of purpose he had in mind?

  "Ugh, I'm so frustrated. After crossing over, my brain cells are dying at an alarming rate. One annoying thing after another is driving me crazy!" Yi Chi rubbed his temples and thought with a bitter smile.

  "But no matter what the background is, as long as it's detrimental to me, I'll kill you all!" With that thought, Yi Chi had already made up his mind to take action and eliminate Yi Buwu.

  If it were someone he understood as an enemy, Yi Chi might still be interested in playing with him, just like Yi Xing. However, this Yi Wu is too mysterious, and if such a person had his sights set on himself, that wouldn't be a good thing at all.

  "It's better to settle it early." Yi Chi made up his mind that after this martial contest, he would take the initiative to get rid of Yi Bu Hui, so as not to let him plot against himself in old age.

  "Haha, serves you right. This time I'll kill you, and even if Father finds out, he probably won't scold me. He might even praise me, haha." Yi Chi thought of his father's dark face earlier and became more confident in his actions. As long as there were no consequences, killing him was just a matter of course. Even if he really had some organization backing him, Yi Chi wasn't afraid. At worst, he could hide out for a few years, and when he came back out, he'd be a genuine Emperor of Fighting. What's there to fear?

  "Ah, you've really made me angry! I'll poison the entire nation and kill every last one of you, then I won't have to worry anymore." Yi Chi thought viciously in his heart, but of course, it was just a thought - actually doing it would be far too impractical. Besides, Yi Chi wasn't the kind of person who would commit genocide; he just liked to nip plots and threats in the bud. If no one tried to scheme against him or provoke him, Yi Chi was actually a pretty decent guy. At least, if you truly considered him a friend, he would genuinely treat you with kindness - sometimes even giving you magical artifacts as gifts."

  At this point in time when Yi Chi was indulging in wild fancies, the two members of the Yi family for the next round had already leaped onto the high platform and were facing each other.

  However, before they could start fighting, Yi Yun stood up and said: "I'll explain again, the martial arts competition is a trial of skill, don't use high-level techniques that you can't control, and don't try to kill your opponent. If anyone does this again, no matter who you are, even if you're my son, I'll strip you of your martial energy and expel you from the family."

  Loudly speaking, Yi Yun signaled for the two to continue, and he sat down again, his face looking very gloomy.

  "This time Father is probably really angry with Yi Bu Hui, but, heh heh, it's better this way!" Yi Chi thought to himself after hearing Yi Yun's words.

  Others also let out a sigh of relief, some were afraid that their opponents would be too strong and they would become the ones being chopped up like vegetables, while others were originally hesitant about whether to use some uncontrollable fighting techniques, but now after hearing the master's words, they didn't have to worry anymore.

  When the crowd relaxed, the two people on stage began to fight. However, after the intense battle earlier, this fight seemed very ordinary. Both sides only used some unimpressive yellow-level martial arts with no strong visual effects. The application of their martial arts was also unremarkable. After about half an hour of back-and-forth fighting, the two people didn't seem to be getting tired of it, but the crowd below had already become extremely bored.

  Finally, the two almost simultaneously exhausted their energy and fell directly onto the stage.

  "Haha, you can't handle it anymore!" one of them said, panting heavily.

  But the other party didn't even give him a glance, and continued to rest on the table, ignoring him.

  "Hmph, as expected, it's no use, can't even speak anymore, heh heh." Seeing the other party not responding, this person thought that the other party didn't have the energy to speak, and compared to himself who still had the energy to speak, he seemed superior.

  But just as he was feeling pleased with himself, his opponent's next move gave him a fright.

  He only saw that guy he thought was already done for struggling to get up, then waved his hand to signal Yi Xinglong to come down.

  "I won," the man said calmly.

  Yi Xinglong, who had just jumped onto the high platform, also took a look at him and confirmed that the other person was indeed unable to get up before saying: "This round, Yi Qing wins."

  Then, without being polite, he kicked the guy lying on the ground off the high platform.

  "Trash!" With a disdainful glance at the guy he had just kicked off the high platform, Yixinglong announced the next two numbers.

  "Hehe, interesting guy." Yi Chi smiled lightly as he watched Yi Qing slowly walk down from the high platform.

  Just a moment ago, even he thought the two would end up in a draw, after all, they both fell down at the same time and neither could get back up. But who would have thought that at the last minute, this guy named Yi Qing actually got back up, it was shocking enough.

  "Calling Yi Qing, a five-star Dou Shi, not bad, very determined." Admiringly looked at the back of Yi Qing, Yi Chi silently took note of this person and then looked towards the high platform again. At this time, two more people jumped up.
