Number 1 Pill-Servant, Yuan Yao! (2)

"Brother Yang, pay attention." Tian Peng took his bow out from the Spatial Jade Bracelet and nocked a silver arrow on it. The string is pulled with an enormous amount of Soul Qi, enough to let the arrow pierces through three to four steel plates.

"Roc Thrusting Through Heaven!" the arrow is released.

"Earth Wall Pellet," Yuan Yao tossed a pill five meters from his spot. Immediately, a layer of earth burst upward from where the pill land and obstructed Tian Peng's attack.

"Huh? What type of fighting style is that?" the weird action from Yuan Yao surprised Yang Guang. How can an attack from a 9th Layer Jade Formation Realm obstructed by a little pill?

"Those powerful cultivators from Ten Thousand Pills Sect rely on their magical pellets. For those still in Jade Formation Realm, there are a total of twenty-five types of Pill can be used."

"But they're like my arrows. Once exhausted, there's no other way for them to defend themselves." Tian Peng narrowed his brows and glanced at Yuan Yao.

"Waiting for my pills to be exhausted? I have three Spatial Jade Bracelet with me, capable of holding six hundred pellets. How many can you fight before succumbing to death?" Yuan Yao smirks.

"Brother Yang, don't worry. Finish using six hundred pellets to attack? Do you think you got five person's worth of Soul Qi? Even a Peak Formation Realm Cultivator can activate a hundred to hundred-fifty pellets at most." Tian Peng explains.

"No wonder..." what Tian Peng said enlightens Yang Guang. This also explains the reason Yuan Yao did not continue with his attack.

...

...

"Poison Pellet!" Yuan Yao shot two pills at the same time. About a meter away from Yang Guang and Tian Peng, the pellet explodes.

The thick green mist spreads like ferocious pythons, charging at the duo in multiple directions. And as the senior between them, Tian Peng throws a Mystic Jade Palm point-blank.

The slight disturbance allowed Yuan Yao to take his next step. A chain holding ten pills is thrown at them as he moved backward for two meters. The experienced Tian Peng also grabbed Yang Guang's wrist and retreated.

"Detonate!" Yuan Yao yells.

"Boom!!! Boom!!!" ten chain explosion created barren patches everywhere around them.

"Brother Yang, you attack. I'll annoy him while you're making your move." Tian Peng nocked another arrow on the string of his bow.

"Single Thrust!"

"Earth Wall Pellet!"

They countered each other. Taking the advantages of their exchange, Yang Guang reduces the gap between them and ready to throw his sword at Yuan Yao when the opportunity is here.

"Keep dreaming! Poison Pellet!" Yuan Yao detonates a pellet to hinder Yang Guang's movement. And it works because Yang Guang is yet to obtain the Flow Theory.

Not willing to give up, Yang Guang threw the sword at where Yuan Yao stay still. And unfortunate for him, it missed him by quite a large gap.

"Reckless! I'll see how you run from my attack. Get him, Struggling Vines Pellet!" Yuan Yao cursed. At the same time, he tossed four pellets from both hands to hinder Yang Guang's movement.

The four pellets suddenly grew into man-eating plants. Over ten vines focused on Yang Guang and making him regret throwing away his sword just now.

"Brother Yang, don't get wrapped by the plants! Their vines are poisonous!" Tian Peng fired a few more arrows at Yuan Yao and the plants. One arrow hit one of the four plants but failed to stop it from keep attacking.

"Art of Jade Flame!" Yang Guang's hand turns red from the fiery technique. The heat successfully stops the vines from getting close to him. But unless he has a blade with him, it would be difficult for Yang Guang to escape from this situation.

Suddenly, a Spatial Jade Bracelet came through the poison vines barricade. It was brought in along with the arrow shot by Tian Peng.

"Thank you, brother Tian!" Yang Guang accessed the bracelet for whatever kept inside. After giving it a few seconds to rummage the inventory, Yang Guang brings out a sickle-type weapon.

Two quick swings are all he needs to remove the vines. But to make sure the plant stops bothering him later on, Yang Guang swung the sickle around him, making a complete circle. This strike destroyed the plants and any life-force within.

"Damn!" Yuan Yao cursed again. Although Yang Guang's cultivation is four stages lower compared to him, an attack from him still hurts, mainly due to Yuan Yao's weak Defensive Power. Although his Body Strength reaches the 9th Layer Jade Formation Realm, his defense is only at the 3rd Layer.

It is not even strong enough for him to handle Yang Guang's most basic Mystic Jade Palm.

"Feather's Fall!" Tian Peng fired three special arrows upwards, aiming at three spots around Yuan Yao. A few explosions happened after that, with short arrows raining down and caught Yuan Yao completely unaware.

"Aargh! Tian Peng!!!" an attack from above caught him unprepared. As a Battling Pellet Art practitioner, controlling and calculating the distance is crucial during a fight. When it comes to fighting against an opponent from above, the calculation required is much more laborious.

"I won't lose! Take this!" Yuan Yao brought out two chains of Explosive Pellets to counter Tian Peng's attack. Throwing them and activated at two different timing, he defends against this attack almost flawlessly!

Almost!

Two arrows, one from the leading shot and one from the ending, almost landed on Yuan Yao's shoulder. He's merely lucky for not getting back to his original posture after throwing the two chains. But such a stroke of luck has done their miracle to keep him alive.

Somewhat afraid, Yuan Yao took a few steps backward due to losing against the duo in psychology battle. Tian Peng's following action also made Yuan Yao pay full attention to his next move.

"Mystic!"

"Jade!"

"Palm!"

Yang Guang's effort is paid. Yuan Yao has forgotten about his existence due to the pressure released by Tian Peng. And he managed to grab this opportunity flawlessly by gifting him with a palm strike enriched with Corruption Theory.

"Guoh!" Yuan Yao vomited a mouthful of blood from that attack. With barely 300jin in Defensive Power, it is impossible to counter Yang Guang's 500jin strong attack!
