Chapter 222 - Versus Executioner Red

Han Yufei immediately believed Bian, who mentioned he had a way to kill Executioner Red. Honestly, the middle-aged man didn't have many options to be pick from.

"There's no time to waste, I didn't expect that one day, I would have to depend on my daughter and her husband."

He said with melancholy in his voice, stepping between the two of them and placing an arm on each of their shoulders.

In the next second, they both vanished from the house.

Bian expected them to immediately show up where Executioner Red was, but it seemed he overestimated the old fellow.

Han Yufei had to jump five times before he finally paused for a moment. He turned to Han Yan and said solemnly.

"It's the moment of truth now, watch your back out there."

Then he faced Bian, "If you can't kill him, run away with Han Yan. I'll make sure he doesn't follow even if.."

"No need for this solemn dedication, old man." Bian cut him off, his presence radiating confidence.

"Executioner Red dies today."

Han Yufei was astonished at his confidence. He thought of warning Bian about the fall that came with pride, but recalling the achievement of the young man before him, he remained speechless.

In the end, he let out a chuckle and whispered under his breath, "What an amazing guy."

Then the three teleported.

DANGER!

Less than a second after they reappeared, Bian kicked Han Yufei away and leapt in the other direction with Han Yan.

A blazing ball of fire, the size of a country, whisked by where they stood a moment ago.

"Tch, I missed."

Bian finally saw Executioner Red for the first time. He was a giant of a man, standing over two meters tall. His upper body was exposed, revealing his ripped physique, which was greater than most bodybuilders.

He seemed to be middle-aged, maybe in his thirties or forties, and while he was bald, he had a fierce glowing-red beard that flowed like fire.

Red felt something tingle in his pocket. He brought out a weird medallion and pointed it at Bian. The medallion immediately lit up like a light bulb.

"Found you, anomaly!"

A boisterous, deep voice left his throat. He stretched out his hand, forming three shining balls of fire, and threw them at Bian and Han Yan.

As the two dodged, the fireballs grew to thousands of metres in diameter, incinerating debris as they passed.

'That power is dreadful, but the speed is only so-so.'

Han Yan slashed out what seemed to be an ordinary attack, but Executioner Red placed his hand in front for a block. Both arms were nearly cleaved off, yet instead of bleeding, blood-red fire flowed from the injury and recirculated back into his arm. In an instant, his injury was gone.

"What a pain!"

"I will~"

As Bian was talking, he felt five cold fingers touch the side of his face.

"Forgetting something?"

A tall figure draped in all black with blonde hair and golden vertical pupils had appeared by his side at some point.

In a motion, Ouyang Ming threw Bian to one of the closest asteroids.

His impact cracked the country-sized asteroid apart. Before Bian could even regain his sense of positioning, Ouyang Ming was before him again.

Punch after punch came in a flurry of attacks. In just a few seconds, thousands of punches landed on Bian, sending him spiralling through space.

"What's the matter, can't keep up?"

A shadow flashed beside Bian.

He didn't waste any time, performing seven sonic destructions, but his attack met nothing.

Suddenly a kick connected to his lower back. Bian retaliated at lightning-fast speed, moving faster than he ever had, but Ouyang Ming was even faster, palming his chest twenty-one times in what seemed like one fluid motion.

Bang!

Bian crashed into a distant planet, coughing up blood as he stood up.

At the same time, a bright explosion lit up the stratosphere of the planet.

Boom!

A flaming figure crashed beside him, kicking up even more dust.

Gradually, the smoke faded away to reveal Han Yan, who had burn marks over her body. They weren't serious enough to hamper her, but they weren't light enough to ignore either.

She looked up at his bloodied face and could see he wasn't having an easier time.

"Swap?" she asked.

When it came to pure speed, Bian truly couldn't keep up with Executioner Black. Still, he had some cards up his sleeve like the inner pillars; however, fighting Ouyang Ming was never his task.

"Swap!"

The two passed by each other, slapping their palms together.

At some point, Executioner Red and Black had appeared far above them. Those with geno armour from the New Community could only stall them. They could hardly touch one and couldn't permanently harm the other.

"Really, Bian? Do you really think I don't have a way of killing her?"

Bian spared Ouyang Ming a glance. He had known Bian was the anomaly the longest and used him to get rid of the other Executioners.

'Does this guy really think his speed makes him undefeatable? He's pissing me off!'

In the end, Bian didn't respond to Ouyang Ming. He gave him a cold glare and turned to Executioner Red.

"How did you become an Executioner? What even is an Executioner?"

Executioner Red let out a massive roar, releasing a large amount of heat. The members of the New Community fighting him had to retreat while he landed and approached Bian.

"How, what, why? What are we, third-rate villains?"

As he approached Bian, the ground beneath his feet was melting, and the space around him was distorted by heat.

Even Bian, who had Jadebody, found himself burning up.

Swoosh!

Ouyang Ming and Han Yan flashed by them into space.

Bian relaxed his tense muscles and ran the Dongxuan Sutra at full force.

'He just evolved, I need to kill him before he has time to adapt and grow even stronger!'

The world before his eyes suddenly warped. He was looking into the sequence chains that made up the universe.

Executioner Red lifted up a finger, forming a small, rapidly spinning fireball.

At the same time, Bian's body crystallised, taking on the appearance of jade. The burn marks around his body froze in place, and the hellish heat could no longer affect him.

Bang!

With Jadebody active, Bian's speed was no longer something Executioner Red could underestimate.

'Let's end this with one move!'

Super Spank!

Bian palmed his chest, unravelling his sequence structure.

"Crap!"

To Bian's surprise, while Super Spank worked, it only worked on the part he touched.

Just like actual fire, Executioner Red's sequence chain was not really bound together, unlike other people's or their objects.

BANG!

The swirling fireball in Red's hand blew up into an astronomically large explosion, launching Bian away like a bullet into the far distance. One-third of the planet was utterly devastated, with everything around either burning at extremely high temperatures or flowing as magma.

The middle-aged man looked down in shock. There was a gap in Executioner Red's chest, which revealed nothing but blood-red fire on the inside.

This time, though, the gap didn't just fill itself up. Executioner Red felt his powers and those of Executioner White come into play. It was the very first time in a long, long while that he was actually hurt.

"Hmm, so that move was effective!"

Bian reappeared again, working towards the Executioner. His armour was gone, melted away by the high-temperature flames.

He made use of the Dongxuan Sutra to mask his body. There were dark spots around his body, which were parts that were burnt by the attack.

"Good attack!" Executioner Red bellowed.

In the next second, blood-red flames and pure white flames erupted and circled round the hole, closing it in a matter of seconds.

"However, you can't kill me with that alone." Executioner Red revealed a cocky grin, forming ten more of those spinning fireballs.

"If I were to destroy the sequence chain of every single part of your body, you would die!"

"If I stood back and watched like a moron, then maybe. But you aren't that much better than me; it's only a matter of time before you die."

Executioner Red spoke the truth. Without Jadebody active, Bian would've been burnt to a crisp by that attack.

Bian let out a sigh and looked into space. There he saw two figures moving at extreme speeds from planet to planet.

A purple cauldron appeared by his side, and Bian reached his hand into it.

The spinning fireballs of Executioner Red changed colours from yellow to golden the space around them was distorted.

"Very strong firepower, however, you're already dead."

Bian brought out a circular rainbow-coloured pill from the cauldron.

As soon as the pill left the cauldron, a scene erupted. Golden light burst out of the pill, glowing brighter than any sun and flying out into space.

The surroundings were filled with music, and a powerful vitality filled the air.

Everyone was shocked, Bian included. He never expected such a scene either. Executioner Red was the one who was surprised the most.

Just a whiff of the scent emanating from the pill was enough to fill him with vitality and even make him stronger.

Before the members of the New Community could properly discern the cause of such a scene, before Executioner Red could even think of taking action, Bian swallowed the pill.

[Super Geno Points +1]

[Super Geno Points +1]

[Super Geno Points +1]

The announcements started ringing in his head non-stop.

Executioner Red was right about Bian being barely stronger than him. The cause was that, while Bian was sort of a half-step evolved from a demigod, his super gene tally was actually still at eight out of a hundred.

Now, with this pill in his system, his super geno tally was rising rapidly.

The burn marks around his body started healing with his rejuvenated and increasing physique.

"I'll kill you!"

Executioner Red realised the danger he was in. If Bian could truly use Super Spank with speed like Ouyang Ming, he would truly die.

Ten gold spinning fireballs coalesced together, turning green for a moment, then the larger ball shrank and turned a dangerous shade of blue.

The stratosphere was burnt away, even the rivers of magma were evaporated under this domineering firepower.

"Prominence Burn!"

Faster than light, a condensed beam of that unbearable blazing blue fire sphere encompassed Bian giving him no time to dodge.
