High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery Chapter 794 - 618: I’m Ashamed to Be Associated with You

"Within Yong’an City, three families hold considerable might. One rivals the Liu Family in strength, featuring an ancestor who has reached the Mid Stage of Celestial Realm. As for the remaining pair, one boasts an ancestor at the Early Stage of Celestial Realm, while the last lacks any such figure."

As they sped onward, Yu Jianqiao declared, "Like before, the captives will be mine, and you claim seventy percent of the cultivation resources."

"Alright."

Gong Bo nodded in agreement.

What threat was a single Celestial Realm Martial Artist, even at the Mid Stage? By himself, he possessed more than a dozen techniques to end the foe's life.

Suddenly, something astonishing caught his eye, causing his pupils to widen and his pace to falter without warning.

In front of them loomed a solitary figure, observing their approach.

Yu Jianqiao spotted it as well.

His initial reaction was one of mild confusion.

But upon a closer look, his expression twisted in shock.

The individual blocking their path, as if intentionally lying in wait, turned out to be the very target the Su Family had tasked them with removing.

They had no intention of clashing with him this early, yet his sudden appearance before them stirred a wave of anxiety in their chests.

How could this fellow have learned of our plans?

Was it possible that a member of the Elder Council had sold us out?

No, that couldn't be the case.

For one, the Elder Council still relied on their services; for another, the Elder Council had no clue about their current location.

Though bewildered, they halted several hundred meters from Chen Fan.

"Surprised to see me?"

Chen Fan inquired.

"Quite surprising indeed."

Yu Jianqiao forced a smile that seemed pure and harmless, "May I ask your name, friend? And what reason do you have for obstructing our path?"

Upon hearing those words, Gong Bo's gaze softened with reduced aggression.

Indeed, since this stranger had positioned himself along their unavoidable route, he likely held some unforeseen advantages.

Although conflict was inevitable in time, caution dictated probing the situation first before striking.

Chen Fan let out a chuckle.

"So, you don’t know me?"

"Of course not."

Yu Jianqiao chuckled too, "Friend, have we crossed paths previously?"

Chen Fan shook his head.

"Then that’s that."

Yu Jianqiao lifted his arm, checked his timepiece, and feigned urgency, saying, "Friend, my brother and I are in a hurry with important business—kindly move out of the way."

"Don’t rush, I’m not done talking."

Chen Fan shook his head again and pressed on, "Since you don’t recognize me, why did you pose as me to slaughter others?"

His words landed, and their faces instantly paled in alarm.

"Friend, what are you implying? I truly don’t follow," Yu Jianqiao’s grin turned rigid.

By now, in truth, he realized the man facing them was fully aware of their true selves.

Yet he remained baffled.

How had the opponent uncovered their secret?

"You still don’t understand?"

Chen Fan let out a soft sigh, "Allow me to spell it out. The Song Family, Liu Family, Bai Family, and Liang Family—you two wiped them out, correct? Yu Jianqiao, Gong Bo?"

For a split second, the air grew still as if time itself had halted.

But moments later, chilling laughs reverberated through the space.

"Hehehe, Chen Fan, we planned to let you linger a while longer, but you insisted on seeking us out. Are you that desperate for death?" Yu Jianqiao bared a sinister smirk.

Beside him, Gong Bo’s face hardened with grave intensity, "How did you learn our true identities? Who revealed it? Was it the Elder Council?"

"Does it matter?"

Chen Fan shot him a look, "Didn’t the Elder Council dispatch you to end my life? Here I am, right before you—why hesitate to act?"

"You!"

Gong Bo seethed with rage, "Very well! If that’s your wish, I’ll grant it!"

Without Yu Jianqiao’s earlier counsel, he would have charged at Chen Fan long ago.

His moniker was Devourer.

Beyond superpowers, martial arts, and realms, he could consume it all.

Thus, he had longed to locate Chen Fan, overpower him, and absorb his essence. He was even ready to clash with Yu Jianqiao over it.

After all, such a prize would tempt them both to claim it solely, without division.

"Do it!"

With that command, he thrust his palm toward Chen Fan and squeezed it firmly.

This power, acquired from devouring an A-level Awakened, was meant to rupture the blood within a target's veins.

Yet, once the gesture concluded, no effect manifested.

In that instant, Yu Jianqiao materialized behind Chen Fan, unleashing scores of dark tendrils from his back that lanced toward him like bolts of lightning.

However, the moment those tendrils made contact, they fragmented section by section, hurling Yu Jianqiao himself backward over hundreds of meters.

"Is that all you got?"

Chen Fan appeared let down, "Not even enough to scratch me."

"Is that so? Fine, then let me show you my true power."

Yu Jianqiao rose from the earth, his form swelling like an inflating orb, ultimately morphing into a hulking beast exceeding three meters in height, its visage twisted and abdomen massively distended.

In this state, he could smash a Mid-stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist with a single blow, and even a Late Stage Celestial Human Realm fighter would falter quickly against him.

His nearly impenetrable frame could endure strikes from Catastrophe Level threats.

Encounters with such a being were the dread of every Martial Artist and Awakener.

Meanwhile, Gong Bo refused to stand by; he directed both palms at Chen Fan, imposing a gravity a hundred thousand times normal upon him.
