Previously, he had sent Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun with an army of 50,000 to attack Wushuang City, but they were completely wiped out.
He also secretly dispatched the "Twelve Fiends of Tianchi" to eliminate Li Yao, but they all died at Li Yao's hands.
Later, Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, and Duan Lang joined Li Yao's forces.
How could Xiong Ba possibly let such a humiliating disgrace go unpunished?
If he doesn't avenge this, how will he ever be able to maintain his standing in the martial arts world again?
So, from that point on, Xiong Ba began to cultivate in seclusion, practicing his self-created 'Three-Part Returning to Origin Qi'.
The Threefold Return to Origin Qi is a unique skill in the world of Fengyun.
Legend has it that this unique skill was created by Li Jing, a general who helped found the Tang Dynasty.
The Three-Part Return to Origin technique combines the three unique skills of "Heavenly Frost Fist, Wind God Leg, and Cloud Dispelling Palm" in a tight and coordinated manner. When all three skills are used at the same time, they bombard the target from different directions. At the same time, the internal and external elements complement each other, and the three elements flow together, thereby achieving a state of natural transformation and endless vitality.
However, when the original Three-Part Returning Qi was passed down to the generation of Xiong Ba's master, the Three Masters Elder, the Three Masters Elder saw that Xiong Ba had a wicked heart, so he passed the skill on to Xiong Ba's senior brother, Xiong Wu.
Harboring resentment, Xiong Ba poisoned his mentor.
Xiong Ba can be considered a martial arts prodigy. Without the original Three-Part Return to Origin Qi, he painstakingly combined the long reach of the Divine Leg, the fierce power of the Cloud Dispelling Palm, and the chilling internal force of the Heavenly Frost Fist into a completely new Three-Part Return to Origin Qi.
In terms of sheer power, his Three-Part Return to Origin Qi surpasses the original.
Moreover, Xiong Ba used the essence of the three ultimate moves to create a technique called "Three-Point Divine Finger," which is even better than the three ultimate moves.
These days, Xiong Ba has been diligently cultivating the 'Three-Part Return to Origin Qi'.
His burning desire for revenge led to a rapid improvement in his martial arts skills.
"Hahaha... I have finally perfected the 'Three-Part Return to Origin Qi'."
"Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, Duan Lang, and that most damned Li Yao, you wait, I will tear you to pieces."
The true energy around Xiong Ba surged endlessly, shattering the surrounding chairs and benches into pieces.
Just then, a panicked voice came from outside the room: "Master, something terrible has happened!"
Since the establishment of the World Society, very few people have been able to climb to the top of Tianshan Mountain and step into the World's Number One Building.
Apart from Xiong Ba's three inner disciples and a few others such as Wen Chou Chou who were granted special permission to enter, anyone else who entered without authorization would be executed!
The person outside the room addressed Xiong Ba as "Master," so he must be one of Xiong Ba's three disciples.
Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun have both rebelled against the World Society.
Therefore, the only person outside the room must be Qin Shuang.
Xiong Ba frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What is it?"
Qin Shuang reported, "Li Yao of Wushuang City is leading an army of a thousand to attack the First Pass Under Heaven. Also... Junior Brother Feng and Junior Brother Yun are there..."
"Shut up! These two traitors betrayed me, and you still dare to call them your junior brothers."
Xiong Ba angrily rebuked.
"This disciple knows his mistake!"
Qin Shuang was startled.
"This Li Yao only brought a thousand men and he thought he could destroy my Tianxia Society. He is simply arrogant."
Xiong Ba sneered and ordered, "Shuang'er, pass down the order to let them up the mountain. I will wipe out Li Yao and those two traitors in one fell swoop at the Third Branch Training Ground."
"yes!"
Qin Shuang accepted the order and withdrew.
"Li Yao, Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, since you have chosen your own path to death, I will grant your wish and tear you to pieces."
A glint of light flashed in Xiong Ba's eyes, bursting forth with unparalleled confidence and ruthlessness.
Now, he has perfected his "Three-Part Return to Origin Qi".
He believed that he was invincible in the entire martial arts world.
Suddenly, a mysterious voice came from inside a brick wall that dominated the bedchamber: "How confident are you in defeating that Li Yao?"
Xiong Ba was not surprised at all, as if he had known all along that there was someone inside the brick wall.
He said with absolute confidence, "I'm 120% sure!"
After saying that, he strode out of the room.
The three branch campuses of the World Society.
The Third Branch Campus is a huge plaza paved entirely with white stones, incredibly spacious and imposing.
On the training ground, the thousand-strong army of Wushuang City and the thousands of disciples of Tianxia Society formed an extremely tense standoff.
Due to the rugged and steep mountain roads, warhorses had difficulty climbing them.
Therefore, Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, and the others left their warhorses at the foot of the mountain and walked up the mountain.
However, this mountain path was no match for the divine beast, the Fire Qilin.
Thus, Li Yao, riding on the fire qilin, appeared exceptionally dazzling and attracted everyone's attention.
Moreover, the tall and mighty fire qilin exuded a captivating aura, causing thousands of disciples of the World Alliance to feel a chill in their hearts.
At this moment, Qin Shuang, Nie Feng, and Bu Jingyun, former fellow disciples, have become enemies.
"Brother Shuang, Xiong Ba has committed many evils. You should stop working for him and join Wushuang City like us."
Nie Feng gently persuaded Qin Shuang.
Since joining Wushuang City, he has discovered that although the city lord is ruthless towards enemies, he is extremely tolerant towards the city's people and governs effectively.
Under the rule of its lord, Wushuang City has become the most prosperous city in the Central Plains.
Compared to Xiong Ba, Li Yao was the true enlightened ruler.
“Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, your master treated you well, yet you betrayed him. Now you even advise me to betray him. You are utterly disloyal and unjust. What face do you have left to live in this world?”
Qin Shuang righteously and sternly denounced Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.
Although he was the most mediocre of the three disciples of Xiong Ba, he was still very loyal to Xiong Ba, even to the point of being blindly loyal.
Nie Feng always respected Qin Shuang, his senior brother, so he repeatedly tried to persuade Qin Shuang.
However, Qin Shuang remained unmoved.
Bu Jingyun, known as the "Uncrying Death God," didn't utter a single word from beginning to end.
In the distance outside the training ground, a young woman dressed as a maid stared at Nie Feng with concern.
This woman was Kong Ci, who had always secretly loved Nie Feng.
At this moment, Wen Chou Chou, the chief steward beside Xiong Ba, shouted loudly, "Chief Xiong has arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a thick beard, dressed in purple satin, tall and imposing, exuding an aura of dominance and displaying the demeanor of a powerful and ruthless leader, appeared in Li Yao's line of sight.
Li Yao has been in the world of Fengyun for so long, yet he has only just met the number one villain in the world of Fengyun.
Xiong Ba was about fifty years old, with long flowing hair and fluttering clothes. His purple satin brocade robe was very gorgeous, and it was embroidered with nine dragons in gold thread, baring their fangs and claws, exuding a majestic aura.
This person, though not a supreme ruler, possesses the aura of an emperor.
He truly deserves the title of Overlord.
As soon as Xiong Ba arrived at the Third Branch School, his gaze was first drawn to the fire unicorn beneath Li Yao.
Because the fire qilin is simply too eye-catching.
This fire qilin is indeed imposing; I, Xiong Ba, am determined to have it!
Immediately, Xiong Ba's gaze sharpened and fell upon Li Yao, and he roared imposingly, "So you are Li Yao?"
Li Yao smiled slightly, looked directly at Xiong Ba, and said calmly, "It is indeed I."
Xiong Ba's eyes narrowed, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Ignorant brat, how dare you attack my World Society! You deserve to die!"
Immediately, his gaze fell on Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, and he shouted, "And you two traitors, I will tear you to pieces today."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped into the air, carrying an unparalleled aura, and attacked.
“Bu Jingyun, your enemy is right in front of you. Go and settle this score yourself.”
Li Yao said to Bu Jingyun.
Bu Jingyun didn't speak, but hatred was rising in his eyes. He then leaped forward and rushed towards Xiong Ba.
"Senior Brother Yun, I'm here to help you!"
Nie Feng also leaped forward, rushing towards Xiong Ba.
He had already learned about Bu Jingyun's background from Li Yao, and knew that Xiong Ba had massacred Bu Jingyun's adoptive father's family.
Therefore, he truly saw through Xiong Ba's true colors and decided to work with Bu Jingyun to eliminate him.
Li Yao had no intention of personally dealing with Xiong Ba.
Even Wuming, a legend in the martial arts world, was no match for him.
In his eyes, Xiong Ba was nothing more than a bug, someone he could crush with a single step.
Although Feng and Yun obtained the God's Maha Boundless Power, they were still unable to fully unleash its power.
Therefore, Li Yao instructed Feng and Yun on how to unleash the full power of Maha Wuliang.
This surprised and amazed Feng and Yun.
They never expected that Li Yao would know so much about Maha Boundless.
After receiving guidance from Li Yao, Feng and Yun's strength improved by leaps and bounds.
Li Yao believed that with the current strength of Feng and Yun, defeating Xiong Ba should not be a difficult task.
Above the three school stadiums, the battle between Xiong Ba and Feng Yun was extremely fierce and breathtaking.
"You two traitors, die!"
A fierce killing intent rose in Xiong Ba's eyes, and he roared, "Three-Part Returning Qi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sphere formed from condensed true energy, almost tangible, rushed towards Feng and Yun with unparalleled force.
The two, Feng and Yun, were of one mind and together unleashed the 'Mahākṣā Boundless Technique'.
