A Failure's hopeful Journey

Chapter 208: The War God Spirit.

The two people sat down on chairs facing each other with a calm face as if they were not enemies but taking business. You Xi Wang took off his mask and kept it inside the space array. Edward Colt spoke, "Young Master You, surely has taken after his mother. The eyes are an exact copy. I wonder if Young Miss of your family is also the same."

You Xi Wang smiled and said, "Hahaha, CEO Edward praised, I accept the compliment. Though I wonder if your excellency would accept my gift as well?"

Edward chuckled and spoke, "Let me guess? You want to gift me, death?" he stood up and stretched his waist in a leisurely manner.

You Xi Wang stood up while shaking his head, he replied in a calm voice with a sunny smile on his face, "Death? That would indeed be a splendid gift for you, but what I have in mind is somewhere along the lines of endless torment and misery. I wonder if you fancy that? Dark Scum." the last two words had a cold killing intent glazed on them. 

Edward Colt only smiled but the next moment he rushed to You Xi Wang, the boy in white was ready to face him and took a step forward, his left fist flashed and met with the punch Edward had thrown on him. 

BOOM...

It was as if an explosion happened, the whole floor shook. The furniture in the office had already flown away and crashed with each other. You Xi Wang did not hold back, and the same was true for Edward Colt. They both did not hold back. Yet this was only the confrontation of their physical strength. None of them had infused the Spirit energy in their attacks. This was the true power of a Primal Soul. A lot of people might step into the Primal Soul Realm, but not all of them could tap into the potential of the realm they achieve. 

From this perspective, Edward Colt was also a genius. To be true, he was a genius before he fell into the dark ways. His mistake was to fall in love with the beauty of a dark dweller. This woman was so cultured and caring that Edward Lost control. The woman even disclosed the fact that she is a dark dweller, after the initial shock Edward decided to abandon everything and follow her to the end. Even at the cost of his humanity. The genius with shiny silver armor, but his armor had a chink in it. The chink was beauty. The chink in the armor became a chasm when he fell to the dark ways. 

From then on he started chasing every beautiful woman he met, and he would do that at any cost. But Chen Limao was his demise. She not only refused his pursuit but also gave him a beating. Chen Limao and You Liangxin were both battle geniuses despite being limited by their realms. They defeated the peak Core Formation realm Edward Colt and repulsed him away. In the end, this bastard still schemed against them.

None of the people stepped back but began to exchange blows while standing unmoved in their places. The fists kept colliding and the shockwaves kept generating as the by-product of the blows. Just as You Xi Wang threw another punch Edward Colt opened his fist and grappled You Xi Wang's arm. He turned and flung You Xi Wang over his shoulder. 

BANG...

The impact of his fall was so strong that the floor was covered with a cobweb pattern. Edward Colt did not wait for You Xi Wang to counter and his fist followed, aiming at You Xi Wang's forehead in order to deal a fatal blow. You Xi Wang was also not a newbie. He raised his leg and while laying down met with the punch. 

BAM... 

You Xi Wang slid on the floor while Edward Colt took three steps back. You Xi Wang stood up and saw Edward Colt punching at him. This time he had dark energy infused in his attacks. You Xi Wang smiled and let go of the all attribute spiritenergy he was holding back from circulating inside his body. His eyes turned golden, a golden stream started to flow around his body as if a snake. His fists were now covered with his jade gloves. 

BOOM...

The two figures repulsed each other after a heavy exchange. You Xi Wang took back three steps while Edward took five. You Xi Wang won this exchange. Edward raised his head and wanted to ask YOu XI Wang something but You Xi Wang did not give him any chance of rest or conversing. His figure flickered as he used the azure dragon step and as he appearednear Edward Colt he started to use the Wild Tiger Fist. 

A chain of punches filled with wild and arrogant intent landed on Edwards body who raised both his arms and used them as guards. Though consecutive attack can leave some marks on the iron walls. His ars were covered with Dark Energy which was being eroded slowly by You Xi Wang's Holy Spirit energy. 

Suddenly, Edward took a sword from his space ring and slashed at You Xi Wang who was so close to him. You Xi Wang was in the zone, how could he not see this coming? He spun on his right foot, dodge the overhead slash and took out the sword of his own. The sword slashed and a phoenix's joyful cry was heard. 

Purgatory was very happy that she could finally fight Edward, as a spirit weapon, despite being sealed the spirit was aware how the past owner died. The sword slash was so swift that it did not even give Edward a chance to parry, all he could do was to jump backwards to retreat. The two people started to clash using weapons. Edward was on a winning side. He did not have the intent of sword but he did have the sword skills, while You Xi Wang was the complete opposite. The room had now transformed beyond recognition. The walls were filled with sword marks. The glass of the floor to ceiling windows was filled with cracks. the furniture was in pieces. These two were moving all around the room with nothing but battle in their mind. 

Edward was a dark dweller and this was his usual style when battling but You Xi Wang just letting himself lose. His sword attacks were getting smoother with every slash and stab. Just when Edward was about to use his ultimate skill, You Xi Wang let go of all the accumulated sword intent. He first took back his sword near his waist, stretched out his feet and bend forward. The with a pheonix's cry he spoke in a low tone, "Pheonix Draw."

A black arc flashed, Edward did not have time to even process the move when the arc was already past him. The arc did not stop and slashed through everything and leaving a groove on both the ceiling and the floor of the room. The lower levels were visible from the grooves. 

Outside the phantoms were gazing at the top floor with slight anxiety. Neo asked Fenny, "Why did you not let us stay with him? What will we do if something happened to him up there?" he has just finished talking when the black arc of sword intent came out of the top floor and dispersed in the void. Fenny spoke faintly, "That's why. He will be fine, but if you were in front of him, you might die without knowing what happened. The You Family has a lagecy, the legacy of the fabled martial spirit."

Everyone sucked in a deep breath. They all looked at Fenny. She continued to speak, "Once, I and You Xi Wang were playing hide and seek with the other kids in the mansion. I hid in the library, there I found a book. The records of the You family. It is a public knowledge, just a little forgotten with times. They have the martial spirit of The War God. The more they fight, the stronger they become. This is a blessing but the adverse effect is, once they start fighting without any restraints. Anyone who is not their family member, might and can die."

They all now realized, why You Xi Wang sent them all out. To confirm their theory, "He is trying to awaken the War God. Unfortunately none of his opponent has been able to keep up with him. I hope Edwar Colt helps him otherwise this guy will leave his soul to be tormented for an eternity for real."

They now understood why You Xi Wang was pushing himself so fast. Anyone who can awaken the ancient martial spirit, they will be an entity who can travel the world without any restriction and fight at different fronts. But the people who awkaened martial spirits are the myths that are only heard and never seen.
