Chapter 1072: A Close Call

was a stark reminder of his fading strength. No matter how powerful and influential he had been in his prime, now he was just a withered old tree on the verge of collapse!Upon hearing the noise, Ye W...Then, a red object shot towards Ye Fan like lightning.

Although Ye Fan didn't know what it spit out, he knew it must be some kind of powerful poison. So he could only dodge first.

The blood serpent's speed, coupled with its venom, was formidable. However, striking Ye Fan, who wielded the Phantom Fist, proved to be a difficult task.

That venom only struck a shadow of Ye Fan, yet Ye Fan had already dodged to the other end of the wall corner. However, his brows furrowed even tighter because he saw the very wall where he had just been standing. After being hit by the blood serpent lizard's venom, in just an instant, a corner of the wall had vanished.

That venom still had a corrosive effect, even if just a little bit stuck on, its own body would probably be unable to withstand it.

The blood snake lizard, after seeing its attack miss, turned its lizard head again and launched a new wave of venom at Ye Fan. Naturally, Ye Fan dodged it again.

But that blood snake lizard seemed endless, spitting venom like it was addicted. Wave after wave, it spewed poison towards Ye Fan, who dodged constantly. Though he dodged, a burning anger grew in his heart. It really was addicted to spitting wasn't it

Ye Fan swiftly dodged into a corner, his hand already clutching a stone. He aimed at the blood snake lizard and flicked the stone like a bullet, sending it hurtling towards the creature.

You like playing long-range attacks, don't you Let's play then.

Who knew that the blood snake lizard seemed to see through Ye Fan's thoughts. With disdain in its eyes, it looked at Ye Fan and opened its mouth again. A mouthful of venom shot out with incredible speed.

A venomous creature with scales, its eyes held a hint of disdain. Ye Fan cursed inwardly, but then he saw it—the stone he had thrown collided with the venomous creature's poison in mid-air. The stone instantly turned to dust, while the poison continued to fly towards him relentlessly.

"Have I gone crazy" Ye Fan roared angrily, and had no choice but to dodge again.

But this arrival of the kin only fueled the arrogance of that burgeoning creature. It spat with even greater fervor, its mouth as if containing an endless supply of liquid, spewing out at Ye Fan relentlessly like a barrage of bullets, one after another.

This left Ye Fan flustered and embarrassed.

"Damn it, you're still addicted to spitting" Ye Fan felt anger rising in his heart. He decided to take a risk and teach this blood snake lizard a lesson. He used the Shadow Fist twice in a row, facing the overwhelming attack of venom. Suddenly, he quickly flashed to the front of the blood snake lizard and grabbed its head with one hand.

The blood serpent lizard stared at Ye Fan and opened its mouth again, but Ye Fan was quick-witted. He pressed his hand over its mouth before it could make a sound, and the blood serpent lizard became submissive.

Ye Fan didn't wait for its tail to lash out at him before he already raised the living thing high, drawing a semicircle in the air, and then slammed it hard onto the ground. An indentation immediately appeared on the ground, but this time, Ye Fan held onto the blood snake tightly and refused to let go.

After its serpentine body slammed against the ground with a deafening boom, Ye Fan once again held the blood serpent aloft. With astonishing speed, he smashed it down onto the ground once more.

Wave after wave, Ye Fan was alternating between his left and right hands, drawing back with each strike. He felt incredibly satisfied, unable to get enough. He didn't even know how many times he had hit. Anyway, the sound of *bang bang* never ceased. With Ye Fan's current strength, even a steel bar could be broken by him, but this blood snake lizard miraculously remained unbroken.

It still stubbornly left dents on the ground, this was a blatant challenge to Ye Fan's kung fu! Ye Fan, with unwavering focus, swung his hand in a whirlwind of fury. With a series of cracking sounds, he finally snapped off a section of the snake's tail.

At this time, inside the secret of Deyun Garden.

Zhu Ge Kong Hua stood with his hands behind his back, his face as dark as water as he stared at an electronic screen. His brow was furrowed in deep thought.

And beside him stood a white man, who was now staring intently at the electronic screen. He seemed to be deep in thought, muttering something under his breath from time to time.

"Boss, it seems we underestimated Ye Fan after all. The Blood Serpent Lizard turned out to be no match for him." The white man slowly turned his face, and when the light on the screen shone on him, a stereotypical American white man's beard was revealed. This man, surprisingly, was none other than world-renowned sommelier Manchester Hill.

"Hmph, this one is just a mere inferior product. The true Blood Snake Lizard King hasn't appeared yet," Zhuge Konghua snorted coldly, Ye Fan's displayed strength filled him with envy.

He walked backwards with his hands behind him for a few steps, then turned around and stared at the white man: “True Master, from now on, both Manchester Hill and Tolstoy must disappear. I believe soon their death news will spread all over the world.”

The white man suddenly grinned, and then a change came over his face as he revealed another visage. It was none other than the Thousand-Faced True Monarch.

For tonight's auction, he had specially assassinated Mancheshier and Toste, the two masters, and impersonated them. However, now that these two are completely useless, he can retire with honor.

"The more outstanding Ye Fan performs, the better. I believe that if this continues, that person will definitely not be able to sit still," Zhuge Konghua snorted coldly.

"Young Master, I'm not worried about Ye Fan now, I'm afraid of that Night Wolf and Guo Zisheng."

"I have a plan in mind, and I'll adjust my actions based on the situation. If Duan Changchun wants to fish in troubled waters, let him do so. However, after this bout of chaos, whether he can escape unscathed will depend entirely on his own abilities."

As it turns out, this auction was a plot all along. They had secretly planned everything with that person beforehand. This bottle of "One Sip Intoxication" wasn't real at all.

But due to Manchester Hill and Tolstoy's timely appearance, everyone's doubts were dispelled. The truly deadly move wasn't hidden in the wine, but in that girl who was pouring it. Who would have thought that a seemingly innocent little girl could be the legendary Wa

And the blood snake lizard, this thing, is even more deadly. It's believed that even someone as knowledgeable as Ye Fan would struggle to escape it. It was about to strike when suddenly another woman appeared, a beautiful wine connoisseur who disrupted their evil plan. This saved Ye Fan from a terrible fate.

Who was that woman who suddenly appeared at the tasting and why hadn't we heard from her before

Qian Mian Zhenjun shook his head and said, "I don't know. Her disguise technique is even better than mine; we can't find her true form at all. However, through the surveillance footage, we found that she had some small interactions with Ye Lang. Moreover, there seems to be a rose-shaped pattern on her eyebrows, but the surveillance footage isn't very clear." Qian Mian Zhenjun said uncertainly.

Zhu Ge Kong Hua fell into deep thought, suddenly his heart moved, and he said, "Could it be the black rose"n Ye Wudao drew out Dongfeng Luoye Sweeping, breaking the sword Ye Benkong was using at the time, and thus winning.And that sword strike also left a long gash from Ye Benkong's chest to his shoulder....
