Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 576: Battle Between Brothers! (Eighth Update)

But Yuan Kun, watching Lin Feng’s retreating figure, couldn’t fathom how Lin Feng managed to accomplish such an inconceivable feat...

Suddenly, Yuan Kun realized the impact today’s futures market crash would have on him. Thinking about this, Yuan Kun started frantically pressing away at the computer, calculating the specifics of his futures for the day. Once he had finished, his face turned ashen.

He no longer had the hundreds of billions he originally thought he would earn. On the contrary, he had lost a tremendous amount, his more than ten billion in margin completely wiped out. He also owed the bank tens of billions. This... This meant all his plans had crumbled to dust!

He had planned to establish his own financial empire with enough funds after today, but unexpectedly, in less than half an hour, the situation had completely reversed. There was no chance of turning things around. In other words, he had become a man in debt by tens of billions, not the billionaire he had envisioned!

From heaven to hell in an instant, Yuan Kun’s entire demeanor became ferociously twisted. He never imagined he would experience such a day!

Yes, Lin Feng, it was Lin Feng!

Because of Lin Feng’s emergence, everything had gone awry. Since Lin Feng appeared, not a single thing had gone smoothly. Lin Feng seemed to be his nemesis, continuously destroying all his plans from the very start. It was because of him that Yuan Kun had ended up in this current state. Lin Feng, that damn Lin Feng, I will kill you!

As Yuan Kun thought this, rage consumed him, and the gentle and refined facade he once maintained was no more. His face twisted with ferocity, his eyes reddened with anger. He truly wanted to flay Lin Feng alive and drink his blood. Lin Feng had ruined his plans with the Leng Family, and even more so, had wiped out his wealth accumulated over the years, leaving him in debt to the banks. He now had nothing left, what more was there to fear? Fear himself was absent from his heart, and only one thought remained: to kill Lin Feng, the cause of his total ruin.

"Lin Feng, I will kill you!" Yuan Kun roared and immediately chased out of the villa, hurling a heavy punch towards Lin Feng. The punch, massive and powerful, carried a whistling sound, striking at Lin Feng like lightning, with one purpose only: to kill Lin Feng!

"Hoo..."

The punch was a super-heavyweight. If only it could, Yuan Kun wished this one blow would take Lin Feng’s life. It’s all because of Lin Feng that he had lost everything, so even if he killed Lin Feng, he would have no regrets!

...

Seeing Yuan Kun suddenly charge at him, Lin Feng didn’t react at all. An AAA early-stage expert was hardly a threat to him, so he planned to deal with Yuan Kun once he got closer.

However, Lin Feng hadn’t expected that he wouldn’t have to make a move, because Leng Hao did instead.

Leng Hao saw Yuan Kun’s punch coming towards Lin Feng and felt he shouldn’t let Lin Feng get into a fight with the senior brother. Lin Feng had come with him, and without Lin Feng, he would have never seen the true hideous face of his senior brother. So, if there were to be a fight with the senior brother, it should be Leng Hao taking action. What infuriated Leng Hao even more was that his senior brother had so deceitfully manipulated his sister for so many years. If not for Lin Feng exposing him, he might have continued being used by his senior brother.

Moreover, the senior brother was just an AA-level expert which Leng Hao knew very well. Under the joint influence of Lin Feng and the Ancient Exotic Jade, he had become an AA-peak expert himself. Fighting the senior brother shouldn’t pose any difficulty. With that in mind, Leng Hao didn’t hold back and met his senior brother’s punch head-on.

"Huff! Huff!"

His punch was equally forceful, aiming for Yuan Kun’s fist, while his left hand sent a straight punch toward the senior brother’s chest. Both punches were tremendously powerful, each carrying a howling wind. It was clear to any onlooker that Leng Hao had exerted his full strength. Otherwise, the punches couldn’t possibly have such astonishing speed and power. In the blink of an eye, they collided with Yuan Kun’s fist.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

As expected, when the four fists collided, both Leng Hao and Yuan Kun were thrown back, except that Yuan Kun retreated only one step, while Leng Hao stepped back three steps and was caught by Lin Feng with one hand. Without Lin Feng’s interference, he would have been forced even further back!

"Elder Brother, so you’re not just an AA-level peak expert, you’re actually a AAA-level master! You’ve hidden your strength deeply," Leng Hao realized from their recent exchange that his Elder Brother had been deceiving him all along. His Elder Brother had always claimed to be an AA-level expert, which was utterly treacherous. Without any knowledge of his true strength and believing his Elder Brother to be an AA-level expert, Leng Hao confidently engaged in combat, only to be unexpectedly thrust back by his Elder Brother’s punch. Now things were getting troublesome.

Leng Hao thought to himself that even though he was an AA-level peak expert, the situation now was that his Elder Brother was a AAA-level master. There was no way he could be a match for his Elder Brother. Continuing to fight stubbornly would only result in injury, and moreover, he had no way to defeat his Elder Brother... What should he do?

Leng Hao’s heart was in turmoil, utterly clueless about how to handle the current situation. He had never anticipated facing such a predicament and could hardly believe that his Elder Brother had been concealing his true power all this time. Although Leng Hao now wished to deal with his deceitful and crafty Elder Brother, the power disparity was just too great; he had no means to fight back...

"Leng Hao, you’re actually at the AA-level peak state now? How is this possible!" Yuan Kun was even more shocked to see that Leng Hao had reached the AA-level peak realm. He couldn’t believe that all of this was real. Just a few days ago, Leng Hao was a peak A-level expert. How could he have possibly improved an entire level so suddenly? It was impossible; the rise in cultivation power in just two or three days surpassed what many cultivators take years or even decades to achieve. What on earth was going on?

Yuan Kun’s mind was utterly confused. Ever since Leng Hao had joined the Martial Arts Sect, he had realized that Leng Hao’s talent was extraordinary. After Leng Hao became an A-level expert, Yuan Kun had deliberately started to mislead him, not wanting Leng Hao to progress too quickly and break the cultivation records he had set in the sect. He himself had become an AA-level expert only at the age of 19, while Leng Hao had reached the peak of A-level at 17. If Leng Hao were allowed to advance naturally, he would undoubtedly break the records Yuan Kun had created, and that would mean stepping down from his pedestal. Yuan Kun couldn’t allow such a thing to happen, so when Leng Hao was at the peak of A-level and without any other option, Yuan Kun chose to secretly administer a slow-acting poison to prevent Leng Hao from smoothly advancing to AA-level.

But now, what he never dreamed of happened – not only had Leng Hao broken through to AA-level, but he had also leapt to become an AA-level peak expert. This was truly inconceivable as such a feat was unheard of in the Cultivation World. Leng Hao must have encountered some incredible fortune during this period; otherwise, it was impossible for him to have advanced to this extent. At 18, becoming an AA-level peak expert was no longer considered merely talented; he was a genius among geniuses!

No, he must kill Leng Hao now or else if Leng Hao’s achievements surpass his own, how could he continue as the Elder Brother? And even if Leng Hao was an AA-level peak expert, what of it? He couldn’t possibly defeat him, a AAA-level master!

Filled with boundless confidence, Yuan Kun charged towards Leng Hao like a madman, resolute in his heart that today he would not only kill Lin Feng but also eradicate Leng Hao...

"Whoosh!"

Yuan Kun was aware that Lin Feng had yet to make a move, so he aimed to quickly take down Leng Hao. With that in mind, he directed a Fist Aura straight at Leng Hao, the roaring Fist Aura accompanied by the deep rumble of thunder, striking towards Leng Hao like a bolt of lightning, while he himself rushed forward like a gust of wind, intending to crush Leng Hao with a single blow of Fist Aura.

Fist Aura!

Seeing Yuan Kun unleash the Fist Aura, Leng Hao’s heart skipped a beat. Having never faced off against a AAA-level expert before, he had only heard of the formidable power of Fist Aura, said to be much stronger than mere heavy punches. One could not intercept Fist Aura with just their fists. What... what should he do now?

In his panic, Leng Hao suddenly heard that familiar voice in his ear again – the voice that had appeared at the Qingyun Villa banquet and helped him defeat Feng Qi.

"Don’t be afraid. He’s just a AAA-level early-stage expert. Do as I say: dodge left, protect your chest with both hands and lean back, kick out, target the opponent’s right foot, and retreat to create distance," instructed the voice.

Leng Hao trusted this voice immensely. During the fight against Feng Qi, it was by following the instructions of this voice that he, an A-level peak cultivator, managed to bring down Feng Qi, an AA-level combatant. With this voice guiding him today, he was sure he could defeat the now vicious and crazed Yuan Kun by following its direction. But Yuan Kun was moving too swiftly, forcing Leng Hao to act immediately without time to ponder, as he followed the voice’s guidance.

Yuan Kun was not surprised to see Leng Hao dodge his attack; after all, being an AA-level expert, failing to dodge would have been peculiar. But dodging was only the beginning; Leng Hao would now face his subsequent assaults, which was precisely Yuan Kun’s intention.
