Chapter 1619 Fight!
“Devourer, Steven?”
Fang Qiu opened the text message and took a closer look at it. In it, Li Ji had told him everything. Only then did Fang Qiu know Steven the Devourer, an SS-level expert whose strength ranked third in the world, wanted to compete with him.
However…
Qingyun, whose strength ranked first, stepped forward.
Through Li Ji’s message, Fang Qiu learned that Qingyun, who ranked first on the individual strength ranking list, was also a Huaxianese.
Moreover, he was a world-recognized super expert at the SSS level.
The so-called SSS level was equivalent to the strength of the Two-Flower Core Formation in Huaxia.
“Qingyun? Sword Sect? 45 years old?”
As Fang Qiu saw Qingyun’s information, his face changed dramatically. It never entered his mind that the top expert whose strength ranked first in the world was a 45-year-old middle-aged man from the Sword Sect!
“Such an expert has not appeared in public for several years, yet he chose to support me at this time. The government must have stepped in to deal with this matter!”
Fang Qiu nodded silently.
Huaxia’s high-level officials seemed ready to fight fiercely against Murica.
Well…
Fang Qiu felt very warm about what these leaders had done, but he still had an impulse to have a thrilling combat against Steven the Devourer.
After all, his rival was also an expert at the SS level. Fang Qiu had faith in himself. Since he could slay Ballor, no one at the same level could threaten his life.
No matter how powerful Steven the Devourer was, it should be no problem for him to stay alive.
Most crucially…
After three fierce battles, Fang Qiu noticed the lotus in his Dantian was virtualizing. Usually, Fang Qiu would be startled.
Well…
He had obtained the cultivation method above the guru level from the turtle shell in the relic. Fang Qiu knew the virtualization of the flower in his Dantian was not a bad thing but a good thing.
According to the cultivation method above the guru level, he had to experience the One-Flower Illusion to advance from One-Flower Core Formation to Two-Flower Core Formation. Then, the energy would flow from the middle opened meridian to the middle Dantian. In there, it expanded and achieved Flower Core Formation again. Only then could it reach Two-Flower Core Formation!
Two-Flower Core Formation!
According to the old master’s order, it was an aim that must be achieved and a barrier that must be broken through!
As long as he could upgrade to the Two-Flower Core Formation, he could meet the old master. Fang Qiu had made desperate efforts to see the old master. Finally, he saw the hope of success.
It hadn’t been long since he officially reached the One-Flower Core Formation. But it was a pity that he almost had no time to rest after the breakthrough. He had great battles every day.
These battles kept stimulating Fang Qiu and accelerated the transformation of the flower in his Dantian!
When Fang Qiu looked back…
It had only been a few days, but the flower had been virtualized.
If Fang Qiu wanted to accelerate the virtualization and get closer to the Two-Flower Core Formation, he had to fight continuously!
But before him…
Steven’s challenge was undoubtedly the best choice for him.
Steven might suppress him. Perhaps, fighting with him could exploit his potential to the extreme.
At this thought…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFang Qiu immediately sent a message to Li Ji.
“Please say thanks to these higher-ups for their concern and care. And please tell them I want to challenge Steven!”
After he finished editing the message, Fang Qiu sent it over.
Beijiang…
In the military base…
“Beep!”
An incoming text message alert was heard. Since Li Ji had been waiting for Fang Qiu’s reply, he immediately took out his mobile phone. Seeing it was a message from Fang Qiu, he felt much more relieved.
His heart had just calmed down, but it lurched again as he clicked open the text message!
Without the slightest hesitation…
Li Ji immediately called Fang Qiu.
“Hello?”
Just as the phone was connected, Fang Qiu’s voice came.
“How are you doing now?”
Li Ji asked.
“I’m fine.”
Fang Qiu replied, “I was slightly injured but have fully recovered.”
“Mm.”
Li Ji nodded with understanding.
He knew Fang Qiu was a doctor, a world-renowned miracle-working doctor. Even if he had injuries, Fang Qiu could cure himself. Therefore, he was not worried about Fang Qiu’s current physical condition.
However, the intention shown by the text message from Fang Qiu looked a little terrifying.
“Listen to me carefully.”
After ensuring Fang Qiu was fine, Li Ji hurriedly tried to persuade him. “Murica dispatched Steven to deal with you. Never be fooled by them. Okay?”
“The higher-ups have already helped you solve this problem. You should know they want you to be okay. They are all trying to protect you. Don’t let these leaders with kindness down!”
In fact…
Not just foreigners…
Even the higher-ups of Huaxia thought John Doe was very likely to lose the battle against Steven. John Doe had slaughtered Bart and Ballor, two super experts at the SS level. However, unlike them, Steven the Devourer was exceedingly powerful. Otherwise, Qingyun would not have come out to support John Doe.
Therefore, hearing that John Doe would fight with Steven, Li Ji fell into despair.
Even in his eyes, John Doe had almost no chance of winning.
“You don’t have to persuade me not to go.”
Facing the persuasion of Li Ji, Fang Qiu replied, “No matter who wins, I have reason to fight.”
When Li Ji heard it…
He felt helpless.
Since Fang Qiu had said so much, what else could he say?
“Don’t act rashly for the time being. I’ll discuss it with my superiors. You must wait for my news.”
Li Ji said.
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu nodded.
He didn’t want to make things difficult for Li Ji. After all, they had cooperated well for so long.
Moreover, Li Ji was the only one accompanying him when he almost died last time.
On the other side of the phone…
Li Ji immediately hung up the phone.
He hurried to report to the higher-ups.
“What?”
Like Li Ji, the high-level leaders were also shocked by Fang Qiu’s request when hearing the report. They didn’t expect John Doe to accept Steven’s challenge.
“Why?”
“Why would he do that?”
“We’ve paved the way for him to advance or retreat. Why does he still want to accept the challenge?”
“What is the reason for his choice?”
“We don’t understand it, but John Doe has never made a mistake. Let’s trust him this time. We didn’t expect him to kill Bart and Ballor, right?”
“He said he chose to fight for a specific reason. Since it is a challenge to him, we can’t decide for him even if we are leaders.”
“Yes, after all, this is his personal matter. Although this matter has involved the country, Fang Qiu doesn’t belong to the country or the army. If he wants to accept the challenge, he only needs to log into a forum and release a post to reply. We have no right to stop him.”
“Then, trust him?”
…
After a long discussion…
Since John Doe was determined to fight, these Huaxia high-level officials shocked by his choice could only agree.
Africo…
On the grassland…
Fang Qiu had fully recovered. He stood up and looked toward Ballor’s body, intending to study the power he cultivated. But it had been a long time since his death. So, the remaining energy in Ballor had all dissipated. He couldn’t study it no matter how much he wanted to.
Fang Qiu had no choice but to shake his head.
Originally…
He had planned to replicate Ballor’s ability, but now he knew he lost the chance.
Yet…
Fang Qiu didn’t feel it was a pity.
He knew he could meet this kind of energy again as long as it existed in this world.
Unfortunately, he didn’t know Ballor was the only person in the world who could cultivate and use this energy.
“Swoosh!”
He waved his hand.
Controlling the Qi of Heaven and Earth, Fang Qiu separated the fire-type energy from it and turned it into flames. In the end, he burned Ballor’s body into powder.
At this time…
“Beep! Beep! Beep!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis phone rang.
“Hello?”
Without thinking, Fang Qiu knew it must be Li Ji. He immediately took out his mobile phone and answered the call.
“Why do you have to accept the challenge? What is the reason behind it? The higher-ups wanted to know the answers.”
Li Ji asked.
“It’s about my privacy. I’m sorry, but I can’t reveal it.”
Fang Qiu shook his head.
Once he talked about it in detail, he would have to mention the old master.
No matter what, he wouldn’t disclose anything about the old master.
“Are you sure you will take the challenge?”
Li Ji asked in a serious tone.
“Yes.”
Fang Qiu nodded with certainty and said, “I must do it!”
“Okay. I’ll tell leaders about your determination. As for what they will do, we can only wait.”
Li Ji said.
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu answered and hung up the phone.
There…
Li Ji told the high-level leaders about Fang Qiu’s firm decision.
“Since that’s the case, let him be.”
“Mm, since he has a reason for the combat, we can’t stop him even if we want to.”
“Of course, it would be best if John Doe could win this competition. If John Doe defeats Steven, everyone will be sincerely convinced. It will be understandable even if he fails. After all, Steven is a world-famous super expert. Besides, John Doe’s previous performance is a miracle already.”
“Yes. Steven chose to fight a duel on Hemalaya Mountain. It’s a good thing for John Doe and us. At least John Doe can stay alive by using this geographical advantage.”
The higher-ups had figured it out.
First of all, John Doe was never reckless. Since he appeared in Wulin, everything he did benefited the country. He was always confident of victory, and never had he let his country down. Since John Doe had revealed steely determination, the higher-ups knew they could not stop him. As such, they could only choose to agree.
After all, when John Doe accepted the challenge, it could add to Huaxia’s grandeur and status.
The weak would fight against the strong.
Though John Doe had suffered continuous setbacks, he fearlessly accepted the challenge of his great rival — this was the spirit of Huaxia martial arts practitioners. This time, the whole world could see the unbounded courage of the Huaxianese!
Soon…
The news reached Fang Qiu.
With the approval of the higher-ups, Fang Qiu immediately logged into the underground-force forum to publish his post.
“Fight!”
His reply was just one word.
This was the only world in the title and the content.
Soon, the message was released.
In no time…
It shocked everyone.
No one had expected John Doe to accept the challenge!
