Chapter 99: Chapter 99 My Confidence, Not to be Disclosed to Outsiders_1

Ning Fan retreated five steps before stabilizing himself, his brow slightly furrowed, as he carefully savored the force within that ancient palm strike he had just received.

That power was somewhat similar to his Azure Spiritual Energy, but it was far less condensed.

However, it greatly exceeded his own in quantity.

It was as if Ning Fan’s Azure Spiritual Energy was akin to a steel dagger, while the ancient force was like a robust wooden stake!

The density and hardness of the steel dagger far exceeded that of the wooden stake; but when it came to volume and impact, it could not compare to the stake.

"Qiu Li’s master is indeed very strong, let’s go again," Ning Fan said.

Ning Fan nodded, his hands covered in Azure Spiritual Energy, as he prepared to intercept the next attack.

Even though the ancient force had pushed him back five steps, he had not sustained any injuries.

A wooden stake can deliver powerful impact, but it cannot damage a steel dagger.

Conversely, while a stake might push back a dagger, it will itself be damaged by the dagger.

At this moment, the ancient force stood still, seemingly at an advantage on the surface, but inwardly filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

He had used ninety percent of his Inner Strength in that palm strike, and although it made Ning Fan take five steps back, he was rebounded by the opponent’s peculiar force and suffered internal injuries.

A surge of blood churned in his chest, and had he not forcibly suppressed it, he almost spat out blood.

"Brat, come again!" the ancient force bellowed, pushing down the surging blood in his chest and, with all his Inner Strength, launched another attack at Ning Fan.

Ning Fan also channeled his Spiritual Power, meeting the attack with another palm strike.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, their palms collided, and the vast Inner Strength of the ancient force again drove Ning Fan back five or six steps.

But the ancient force himself was also injured by Ning Fan’s Spiritual Power, causing his blood to churn once more.

"Ancient force, once more," Ning Fan said.

Even though he was pressed back, Ning Fan was not injured at all; instead, the challenge from such a strong opponent like the ancient force excited him.

His previous opponents like Baldy Qiang and the Bear Brothers were only common brutes, Qiu Li was only slightly stronger than the average person, but this ancient force, Ning Fan could feel, was much stronger than the average person.

A true Martial Artist!

And even among Martial Artists, he was a very strong presence!

"Hmph! Again!" the ancient force snorted coldly, once again suppressing the churning in his blood, stepping forward, and delivering another full-strength palm strike at Ning Fan.

Boom boom boom...

The ancient force waved his hands repeatedly, unleashing all of his mighty Inner Strength in a barrage of strikes against Ning Fan.

Ning Fan kept retreating but became increasingly excited, his fighting spirit kindled even more.

The ancient force seemed overpowering as Mount Tai, yet inside he was full of bitterness; every palm strike rebounded by Ning Fan’s strange force added to his internal injuries, and he was about to be unable to hold back the surging blood any longer!

Whoo!

After delivering one final all-out palm strike, the ancient force stopped, no longer making a move.

He didn’t dare to strike again—another exchange with Ning Fan would undoubtedly cause him to spit out fresh blood.

"Thank you, ancient force, for holding back," Ning Fan suddenly said.

As the ancient force wondered, Ning Fan sidestepped, pointing behind him and said, "Had you attacked once more, I might have been forced off the edge of the roof."

It turned out that during their exchange, Ning Fan had been pushed back to the very edge of the rooftop.

Of course, Ning Fan wasn’t foolish enough to actually let himself be driven off by the ancient force.

With a slight sidestep to change direction, he could have continuously faced the ancient force’s attacks.

Ning Fan, unaware that the ancient force refrained from attacking due to the backlash of Spiritual Power and not due to mercy, thanked him.

"Concession accepted," said the ancient force expressionlessly, then fell silent, concentrating all his effort on suppressing his blood flow and healing his internal injuries.

Xu Qingfeng hadn’t noticed the ancient force’s dilemma and thinking the ancient force had suppressed Ning Fan, he slowly approached, looking down at Ning Fan and said, "Heh, Ning Fan, now that you’ve seen how formidable the ancient force is, you should be convinced, right?"

"In the past, you were like a frog in a well. Now that you’ve witnessed the outside world, I hope you realize your place and never again approach Miss Xu."

"And stop pretending to be Miss Xu’s boyfriend, using the Xu Family’s influence to flaunt your power!"

In response to Xu Qingfeng, Ning Fan shook his head and said, "Master Xu, perhaps I’m not a match for the ancient force right now, but this doesn’t mean I will give up on Miss Xu! I believe I will soon defeat the ancient force! I will never give up on Miss Xu! Perhaps you look down on me now, but I will soon change your mind!"

"I really don’t understand where you get your confidence to say such absurd things," Xu Qingfeng scoffed.

"My confidence is not for strangers to know," Ning Fan replied slowly, shaking his head.

His confidence came from the legacy left by his mother, the mysterious cultivation technique, but how could he possibly tell Xu Qingfeng?

"Haha, since you won’t listen to me, suit yourself, but don’t blame me for not warning you. There’s a vast chasm between you and Miss Xu that you simply cannot cross!"

"You and Miss Xu are not from the same world!"

"If you insist on persevering, you’ll soon be torn to shreds by this chasm!"

"Take care!"

Having said this coldly, Xu Qingfeng left the rooftop with the ancient force.
