Chapter 3156: Chapter 1058

"You bastard!"

Although Zhou Tian did successfully blast that Three-eyed person away, because he hadn’t used his Full Strength, and because that Three-eyed person’s Body was fairly sturdy, Zhou Tian’s strike, while it did land cleanly, in the end still failed to inflict any significant Damage.

Of course, even though Zhou Tian’s blow didn’t actually injure that Three-eyed person, the stimulation it gave him at the time definitely wasn’t small.

At the root of it, Zhou Tian’s appearance was also playing its effect at that moment.

If, in that Three-eyed person’s eyes, Zhou Tian had been a formidable opponents—at least looked like a formidable opponents from the outside—then first, that Three-eyed person wouldn’t have dared take Zhou Tian’s attack so lightly, and naturally wouldn’t have let himself get sent flying with a single hit. Second, even if the two had clashed and he’d lost to Zhou Tian and been knocked back, with that kind of outcome, that Three-eyed person probably wouldn’t have had any problem accepting it.

But in the end, just because Zhou Tian, in that group of Three-eyed people’s eyes, was merely a "Demi-human," even though Zhou Tian’s strike hadn’t caused much Damage, it still managed to enrage that Three-eyed person.

It’s like this: if you get punched by another person, maybe the two of you will end up brawling over it, but usually, as long as there’s some reason behind it, you’re not going to be that furious about taking a punch. But if you get bitten by a mosquito—especially when you’re not paying attention and it chews you up badly—then no matter how good-tempered you are, you’re probably going to choose to squash that mosquito flat with one slap!

In that Three-eyed person’s eyes, Zhou Tian might not be as weak as a mosquito, but just judging from their Performance, this kind of "Demi-human" like Zhou Tian had clearly never been taken seriously by that group of Three-eyed people. So when they hadn’t put Zhou Tian in their eyes at all, and yet he still managed to land a blow, it was only natural that that Three-eyed person would be unable to figure it out and get angry.

He couldn’t figure it out himself, and he also couldn’t stand the strange looks from his companions.

Without knowing Zhou Tian’s identity or strength, when the other Three-eyed people saw their companion get knocked flying by Zhou Tian, they wouldn’t think Zhou Tian was strong; they’d just think their companion’s Performance was lousy. So in that situation, the other Three-eyed people would definitely "look down" on their companion at least a little.

And that particular Three-eyed person, though he’d taken Zhou Tian’s strike head-on, since he hadn’t really been hurt, it was obvious he still wouldn’t suddenly regard Zhou Tian as some incredible Enemies.

So in a situation where that Three-eyed person hadn’t put Zhou Tian in his eyes at all yet ended up getting blown away by him, there was no way he wouldn’t feel furious.

It might not make much difference, but in order to prove he wasn’t as weak as his companions thought, the most likely Response from that Three-eyed person was to directly Take Action and kill Zhou Tian.

Therefore, given the situation at the time, there really wasn’t room for any Accident. After he carelessly let Zhou Tian blast him away, once that Three-eyed person recovered from the shock, he first froze, then, in his anger, said nothing more and directly chose to launch an attack at Zhou Tian.

The vertical eye on his forehead suddenly widened as he moved, and with that motion, the vertical eye quickly shot out a streak of Flames.

"What?"

Zhou Tian wasn’t completely unprepared. After all, the Three-eyed people’s look was right there in front of him; the moment he saw the guy, even with myths aside, Zhou Tian had already been paying attention to that vertical eye. But although he had mentally prepared himself, he still hadn’t expected that Three-eyed person to use that sort of Tactics against him.

So, with Zhou Tian basically unprepared at that moment, facing the Three-eyed person’s attack, he almost got hit. Luckily, Zhou Tian had previously considered that the other side might launch an attack through that vertical eye, and he’d been through plenty of similar incidents before. So even though the Three-eyed person’s method of attack startled him, he still managed to make a Response one step ahead of the strike actually landing.

In the end, thanks to Zhou Tian’s timely Reaction, once that Three-eyed person’s attack was released, it didn’t land on Zhou Tian’s Body, but instead hit the Position where Zhou Tian had been standing just a moment before.

"The power’s that strong?!"

When he first saw the Three-eyed person attack, Zhou Tian was startled by the method of attack, but he didn’t really take it too seriously. Aside from the odd method, just from the outward look of that Three-eyed person’s attack, Zhou Tian didn’t feel it was any big deal.

But it turned out Zhou Tian hadn’t expected the Flames from that vertical eye to unleash such power once they hit something.

The Temperature of the Flames was far stronger than Zhou Tian had imagined. Once that vertical eye’s Flames were fired and struck the ground, they turned that patch of ground’s surface into crystalline material in the shortest time. Even though Zhou Tian was already quite far away, he still felt a wave of heat rush at him. If the Three-eyed person’s attack hadn’t been so brief—basically a single streak of fire that vanished right after hitting—then that attack would already have been enough to form a lethal Threat to Zhou Tian as he was now.
