In the back hill, a low shout suddenly erupted.
Tang Huoyang threw his fists, directly aiming for Pei Jinye's face and midsection.
While the momentum of this punch was formidable, the strength seemed a bit weak; Pei Jinye blocked with his shoulders and elbows, resisting the urge to use Black Tiger Scooping Heart, and instead clenched his fist and hammered down on Tang Huoyang's shoulder.
Tang Huoyang let out a strange cry, activating his ability. Too late to turn around, he took the punch hard and flew out with a cry, landing on the ground clumsily like a frog, swallowing two mouthfuls of dirt.
"Aiyo, damn it!" Tang Huoyang rubbed his bones and incredulously lifted his head, "How long has it been since we last met? Just a day, wasn't it? How did you get so freakishly strong already?"
Pei Jinye walked over and pulled him up, "Just had a bit of a lucky breakthrough."
Tang Huoyang was astonished, then dusted the dirt off himself, muttering, "Truly monstrous."
