Chapter 206: One Move!

Hearing the voice, everyone was stunned.

Among them, Xiao Yan was especially dazed.

Originally, it was a subconscious call in despair, but unexpectedly, Lin Xiu really responded.

For some reason, hearing Lin Xiu's words made him feel somewhat at ease.

Whether it was the Fire Energy Hunting Competition where he single-handedly subdued the freshmen, or effortlessly taking down the Snow Demon Sky Ape, or at the bottom of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, when Xiao Yan was surrounded by the Fallen Heart Flame and in dire danger.

Just hearing Lin Xiu respond made Xiao Yan inexplicably feel that there was still hope for today's situation.

"Finally willing to come out? But now that you're here, is it really in time?"

Xiao Li's expression slightly condensed, a bit complicated.

When they had the upper hand, he didn't want Lin Xiu to appear because the Xiao Family could seize the foundation of Misty Cloud Sect.

But when they were at a disadvantage, he desperately wished for Lin Xiu to show up and help resolve the crisis.

Now that Lin Xiu had really appeared, he was again filled with doubt.

After all, at this moment, Protector Wu's strength was far beyond that of the Half-step Dou Ancestor Han Feng; he was even stronger than Yun Shan.

Protector Wu was so strong that even Medicine Sovereign, who was once a Dou Venerate, couldn't deal with him using the Heavenly Flame.

And Lin Xiu had only just advanced to Dou Emperor a little over a year ago. In such a short time, could he really contend with Protector Wu?

Hai Bo Dong, Jia Xing Tian, Fa Ma, and others showed a trace of bewilderment on their faces.

Lin Xiu? Is this the Elder Lin they mentioned waiting for at the foot of the mountain?

Wasn't it said that this person is just a Dou Emperor?

If that's the case, where does his confidence come from? Why does he dare to say he'll handle Protector Wu?

We're all Dou Emperors, are you really that much more exceptional?

Tie Wu, Su Mei, Lin Xiu Ya, Yan Hao, and others.

Even those who had unwavering faith in Lin Xiu's strength couldn't help but show a hint of doubt on their faces at this moment.

It's not that they thought Lin Xiu was too weak.

But the power Protector Wu displayed before them was truly too strong.

So strong that he was the most powerful person they had ever seen.

Even Academy's Grand Elder Su Qian seemed like he wouldn't be able to withstand a few blows from the current Protector Wu.

"Who is pretending to be mysterious? If you have the ability, come out!"

The echoing voice in his ear, Protector Wu found it somewhat unpleasant and harsh.

"Annoying!"

Suddenly, a cold shout echoed.

Protector Wu was startled, because this voice was right in his ear, which he found extremely unbelievable.

Before he could react, his back suddenly felt heavy, as if a terrifying force like a falling mountain had erupted.

Boom!

Everyone saw a black shadow sweep across the sky and crash straight into the ground, creating a large pit in the stone-paved square.

Billowing dust rose.

"Hiss..."

The sound of people gasping in shock spread across the area.

Countless surprised, shocked, and incredulous gazes turned towards the sky, at the spot where Protector Wu had been standing.

There stood a young man with a calm expression, a pair of azure wings with silver gleams flapping behind him.

In his palm, he held the black mist that had imprisoned Yao Chen, which belonged to Protector Wu.

"Senior Brother!"

Seeing his face clearly, Xiao Yan beamed with joy and excitement.

It was indeed the right decision to ask for Senior Brother's help back then.

This is the strength of Senior Brother, truly terrifying; with just one move, he knocked Protector Wu down.

"Is he really this strong?"

Xiao Li felt a bit ashamed, filled with guilt for doubting Lin Xiu earlier.

With such power, even in the Black-Corner Region, not even Medicine Emperor Han Feng might be able to afford his help.

But Lin Xiu agreed to help his younger brother.

He didn't take anything in return, only asked for two promises from his younger brother.

One of the promises was that after taking down Yun Shan, everything would be handled by him.

With Lin Xiu's strength, did he really need his younger brother's help? He could have easily done it himself.

So, the conditions Lin Xiu set were entirely out of consideration for being fellow Academy students and looking out for his younger brother.

And I actually doubted Lin Xiu. Damn it, Xiao Li, you really deserve to be damned.

After mixing around in the Black-Corner Region for a while, did you think everyone's heart is as dark as yours?!

"We really should have waited for this Elder Lin."

Hai Bo Dong was stunned for a moment, then slowly looked at Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma with a hint of shock in his voice.

The two of them nodded in agreement.

With such terrifying combat power, if he had been present earlier, they wouldn't have had to struggle so much.

One move was enough to drive the enhanced Protector Wu into the ground.

Even if Yun Shan were to be reborn, facing this person would probably only take one move.

"It's a pity that when Jia Nan Academy came to the Imperial Capital, we didn't send Yao Yu into it."

First Xiao Yan, and now Lin Xiu, Jia Xing Tian realized that both of these young people were quite young.

In addition, there were also students like Lin Xiu Ya, Yan Hao, and Lin Yan, who were all at the Dou King level.

An academy that can simultaneously cultivate two such outstanding students and a group of excellent students demonstrates the terrifying strength of Jia Nan Academy.

Tie Wu, Su Mei, and others were full of shock, dumbfounded, while a hint of gratitude flashed in their eyes.

It was worth it! This trip was absolutely worth it!

All three knew Lin Xiu's terrifying talent, and that it was a certainty he would take over the academy in the future.

Therefore, they specifically made the long journey just for Lin Xiu's sake.

After more than a year, seeing Lin Xiu take action again, this terrifying strength proved that making an early connection and becoming acquainted was definitely worth more than they invested.

Given Lin Xiu's rapid improvement in strength, it's likely that in another two years, his promotion to Dou Ancestor would not be a problem.

By then, who would command the Black-Corner Region would be crystal clear.

"This guy... When did he rush out?"

Medusa, holding onto the armrests of her chair, was filled with shock as she moved her gaze from Lin Xiu in the sky to beside her.

Just a second ago, Lin Xiu was sitting here talking.

But in the blink of an eye, he had knocked Protector Wu down.

During this time, even though she was sitting right next to him, she hadn't noticed a thing.

"Crunch."

Seeing Medusa look over, Zi Yan hesitated for a moment and then handed over a handful of peanuts.

Medusa paused for a moment before opening her fair hand.

She picked up a peanut and put it in her mouth; it was crispy and delicious, leaving a pleasant aftertaste.

No wonder he had been sitting and not taking action. He was actually quite enjoying himself.

"Is he also one of Xiao Yan's people?"

Looking at the figure in the sky, Yun Yun was somewhat surprised.

If she remembered correctly, when she passed through the square with a veil on earlier, this person seemed to be feasting with a little purple-haired girl.

"Cough, cough..."

Protector Wu walked out of the dust cloud, his eyes filled with dread as he glanced at the young man.

"It really is you! When I heard the name earlier, I had a suspicion. I didn't expect that in just over a year, your strength would improve to this extent."

His black armor was covered in dust, with large cracks appearing on his back, extending all the way to the front.

This imposing armor, after taking just one hit, was now riddled with scars, as if it could shatter at any moment.

Everyone who saw this scene was in utter shock.

They knew that their combined efforts earlier, with so many people and so many attacks, couldn't compare to the damage Lin Xiu inflicted on Protector Wu with a single strike.
