C219 Lee Zi's Attack Shocked Everyone!!
As they drew nearer to the outskirts, Chu Yi could sense a slight trembling in Lee Zi's arms.
He knew it wasn't fear that caused this but rather...
Excitement!
The thrill in Lee Zi's eyes was unmistakable.
Lee Zi had ascended to the High Order of Silver, a level of strength that paled in comparison to those at the Diamond level.
But Lee Zi was an exception!
Certainly, the abilities Lee Zi could showcase publicly were no match for a Diamond, and perhaps not even for a mid-level Genius Level Gold.
But this time, there was no need for concealment!
Lee Zi was the sole bearer of the truth. If someone were plotting to take down Chu Yi, they would have meticulously prepared, ensuring no one else could interfere.
This provided the necessary secrecy.
And if that was the scenario...
Lee Zi looked up at Chu Yi.
With a knowing smile, Chu Yi grasped Lee Zi's intent.
"Go ahead..."
That simple affirmation transformed the excitement in Lee Zi's eyes into a fierce combat readiness!
Indeed...
Now was the time to unleash his full power, to reveal his true might!
And so...
Lee Zi was exhilarated...
...
Half an hour later, the flying car came to a halt. Chu Yi's senses told him they were now far from Redmarsh.
This area, though called the outskirts, was nearly wildlands.
Others with nefarious intentions might think twice about venturing here at night.
But for Chu Yi, Adams, and their associates, such concerns were trivial.
They were Diamonds, after all!
Besides, this was the suburban fringe of Redmarsh City!
Though danger lurked, it was unlikely for any formidable Demonic Beasts to appear.
The flying car had stopped.
The next instant, Chu Yi swiftly exited with Lee Zi in his arms, just as Adams stepped out.
Chu Yi harbored a slight concern that Adams might trigger the ion bombs if he noticed any delay in their departure.
That would indeed spell disaster.
As expected, Chu Yi detected two potent presences stealthily positioned in the vicinity.
Hmm, the others couldn't perceive it, but Chu Yi was only able to detect it through his senses.
It must be acknowledged that these individuals, who cling to the sole truth, are exceedingly cautious.
Clearly, Adams's two associates didn't trust him entirely. They needed absolute certainty that there would be no issues before they would fully reveal themselves.
"Alright, no more hiding."
"I've brought the person, so let's wrap this up quickly!"
"If Chu Yi doesn't return soon, then a formidable High Order being will surely come looking for him."
"And then, we'll be running out of time."
For an ordinary being, there would naturally be no issues.
But with Chu Yi...
The government and noble family elites could probably turn Redmarsh City upside down in an instant!
The next moment, the two figures materialized in front of Chu Yi and Lee Zi.
They positioned themselves cautiously, trapping Chu Yi and Lee Zi in the middle, yet ensuring there was always an escape route.
So cautious...
Chu Yi smiled and shook his head.
"Chu Yi, you did save my life after all."
"I may not be a saint, but I do believe in repaying kindness. Tell me, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
"Speak up, and if it's within my power, I'll grant it."
Repaying kindness...
Is this their idea of repaying kindness?
Chu Yi refrained from passing judgment.
He glanced at the other two figures shrouded in black cloaks and gently shook his head.
"If you're asking, I do have one request..."
He signaled to Lee Zi with a nod.
In the next instant, an ecstatic Lee Zi leaped forward.
"The first thing is, you'll have to battle Lee Zi..."
Adams froze at these words, his gaze turning scornful.
"I thought you were different, Chu Yi!"
"It turns out you're just another coward!"
"Sending your woman to weaken us first. Honestly, Chu Yi, I've completely misread you..."
While speaking, Adams shook his head, but his energy was already on the rise.
Indeed, given Adams's cautious nature, he had intended to strike as soon as Chu Yi stepped off the flying vehicle. His rambling wasn't due to being talkative; he was merely buying time for the other two, allowing them to strike without any reservations.
Indeed, after a lengthy period of vigilance, the two finally ascertained that they hadn't walked into a trap.
Yet, they still didn't remove their masks, choosing to keep their identities concealed.
Clearly, unlike Adams, these two had plans to return and carry on with their lives in the daylight; revealing their true faces was not an option.
"Let's begin, then!"
The moment his voice echoed...
No, Adams had sprung into action even before he had finished speaking!
He was intentionally deceitful. So cunning!
However, their primary target turned out to be Lee Zi!
It was evident that Adams and his companions recognized that although Lee Zi wasn't the strongest, she was undoubtedly an unpredictable factor.
They resolved to eliminate Lee Zi first, allowing them to concentrate all their efforts on Chu Yi.
After all, top-tier experts are just that—there was no need for extensive dialogue. A simple exchange of glances was enough for them to understand each other.
Three silhouettes, three Diamond Level Great Generals, simultaneously lunged at Lee Zi!
It must be acknowledged that they held Lee Zi in high regard.
Typically, Lee Zi would stand no chance against the formidable onslaught of these three, likely to be slain in an instant.
Even a Diamond Level genius would struggle to fare much better in her place.
Although Adams and his allies hadn't unleashed their ultimate power, their strike was certainly delivered with nearly all the strength they could muster at that moment.
In a flash, they had reached Lee Zi, with Chu Yi standing not too far from her.
The trio wasn't concerned about Chu Yi fleeing; while they attacked Lee Zi, Chu Yi remained their true objective, and that hadn't changed.
Should Chu Yi show any sign of escape, they would not hesitate to strike decisively and end him once and for all!
But then, just as their force neared Lee Zi, they hesitated.
Because Lee Zi had vanished!
Yes, vanished!
It was as if she had never been there at all!
The three were momentarily dumbfounded, then simultaneously came to the same conclusion.
No, Lee Zi hadn't disappeared; she was simply too fast, leading them to believe she had vanished!
"How is this possible!"
That was the singular thought in their minds!
However, in the next moment, they took off to search for Lee Zi.
Indeed, on the ground nearby, they spotted Lee Zi's silhouette.
At that moment, Adams' face grew grave, and the other two seemed to be in no better shape.
"You're so slow..."
Lee Zi taunted them with a challenging gaze.
Just moments ago, Lee Zi had utilized an immortal art Chu Yi had taught her — The Closest Worlds!
This technique drew upon her own spiritual strength and the power of the Immortal Dao.
Regrettably, Lee Zi's spiritual strength was insufficient. Even though Chu Yi had assisted in enhancing it, her primary focus remained on the demonic path of body refinement.
Given Lee Zi's current state, she could only perform the near-instantaneous teleportation of The Closest Worlds a few times.
Any more than that, and her combat abilities would be compromised.
Lee Zi hadn't had the opportunity to test it before, but this time, she had unleashed it fully!
"Forget it, I'm done playing with you!"
"I'm ready for a real fight!"
Adams' face darkened further. He sensed that Lee Zi was not the least bit scared; she was actually excited!
What was happening?
Naturally, they were at the point of no return and had to proceed.
The trio exchanged glances and lunged at Lee Zi once more, this time with much more concentrated force.
They had nearly sealed off every possible escape route for Lee Zi.
Unfortunately, Adams and his companions had miscalculated. Lee Zi had no intention of continuing to hide behind her identity.
Because she—
Ignited!
Suddenly, a blaze of light burst forth from Lee Zi's body.
The power of flames!
This was the fire-type genetic power!
The trio was astounded!
Why had Lee Zi previously fallen from the rankings?
The answer was simple: Lee Zi was no longer the dual-genetic warrior she once was!
Everyone was aware that Lee Zi's genetic power had been shattered.
But now, what was this?
Still, it was just a strand of genetic power, and they didn't consider it a threat, especially since Lee Zi's level was merely Silver...
But in another instant, something else that astonished them occurred.
A blue light!
That was the water-type genetic power!
Yet, their shock didn't end there.
Because three more colors emerged.
The trio's expressions transitioned from initial surprise to shock, and eventually, they became utterly numb.
Five types of genetic power!
Could it be possible?
It seemed impossible!
After all, even the top-ranked genius only possessed three types of genetic power.
But now, Lee Zi had just unleashed five types of genetic power!
In a flash, the collision happened.
The three of them tensed their bodies briefly before being sent flying backward. Clearly, they were just dissipating the force; they hadn't sustained any injuries. At that moment, Adams and his companions refrained from launching another attack, for they were witnessing a sight they would never forget for as long as they lived.
