Quan Yi's eyes were fixed on the masked man, his mind quickly analyzing the situation.

Currently, he has a coachman behind him, but the opponent appears to be alone.

There are no people around, and his mother is not by his side due to the gunpowder incident.

Now, he can only rely on himself to deal with this crisis.

Faced with such a dangerous situation, a hint of madness flashed in Quan Yi's eyes.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his heart began to beat wildly.

The dark red flame patterns on the Raging Sun Gauntlets also gradually brightened, emitting an extremely scorching aura.

Facing an agility-based Soul Master, turning around and running away is the worst strategy.

His soul power is not as abundant as the opponent's, and although his explosive power is strong in terms of speed, his endurance is insufficient. Even if he can create a distance in a short period, he will eventually be caught up.

Therefore, Quan Yi chose to confront him head-on.

Quan Yi's attention was highly focused. Although the opponent's speed was very fast, Quan Yi's eyes could still keep up.

The masked man was very aware that Quan Yi's strength was very strong, as he could tell from how Quan Yi blocked his fourth soul skill with both hands.

Even he couldn't do that.

But in terms of speed, he had an absolute advantage. Since long-range attacks were ineffective, he would just engage in close combat.

With his speed and the sharpness of his claw blade, he could definitely easily cut Quan Yi's throat.

The masked man was now only two steps away from Quan Yi, and the blade of his right-hand claw blade emitted a white light.

First Soul Skill, Razor-Sharp Blade.

Effect: Increases the sharpness of the blade.

But just as he thought Quan Yi would raise his hand to block, Quan Yi actually chose to take a step forward.

"Foolish, the closer the distance, the less likely you are to keep up with my speed."

The masked man saw Quan Yi taking a step forward while simultaneously making blocking and attacking gestures with both hands.

But Quan Yi's speed was like a turtle crawling in his eyes, and his blade would definitely slice across Quan Yi's throat faster.

Just as the blade was about to slice across Quan Yi's throat, several white lights suddenly flashed from Quan Yi's Raging Sun Gauntlets.

Propulsion Mode.

At this moment, a gleam of light burst out in Quan Yi's eyes. This was the moment he had been waiting for.

Tiny, blazing white flames appeared on his arms simultaneously.

With the flames providing propulsion, Quan Yi's speed and explosive power instantly surged.

Under the effect of the powerful propulsion, his left hand struck the masked man's sword-wielding arm at an extremely fast speed.

And his right hand directly smashed towards the opponent's head.

Quan Yi's two hands were activated simultaneously, one hand directly blocking the attack, and the other attacking the eye socket.

With the instantaneous burst, the strength of his body plus the power of propulsion, Quan Yi's instantaneous strength and speed were already comparable to those of a Soul King-level Soul Master.

Faced with this move, the masked man would definitely be unable to dodge it.

The instant Quan Yi's left hand collided with the opponent's right arm, Quan Yi could clearly hear a cracking sound.

However, just as Quan Yi thought that his right hand could shatter the opponent's head with one punch.

The masked man actually tilted his head dangerously, dodging Quan Yi's fist.

He actually dodged it.

Then, he quickly retreated backward.

The masked man's right hand drooped down. He didn't even have time to pay attention to the pain of the broken bone. Compared to the fear of death, this pain was nothing.

He had never felt death so close.

At the same time, Quan Yi was also somewhat incredulous. His punch was aimed for a one-hit kill.

The opponent actually reacted.

"How is that possible? Are you a fire-attribute Soul Master?" The masked man, who had retreated dozens of steps, said with some panic.

In his impression, Quan Yi should be a power-type weapon Soul Master.

But he didn't expect that he was actually a fire-attribute Soul Master. Moreover, the power and speed that Quan Yi had just displayed exceeded his imagination.

He knew that he couldn't stay any longer.

Although his goal had not been achieved, he was afraid that he would die if he continued to stay.

The masked man turned and ran, but just as he turned to run.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, an explosion sound came from his broken right arm.

"Ah, ah, ah!"

The masked man's entire right arm was directly blown away, and along with the power of the explosion, the body near his right arm was also blown into a bloody mess.

Because his arm was drooping and close to his right torso, his right abdomen suffered serious damage.

Even the masked man, who had not uttered a sound when his bone was broken, could only scream miserably at this moment.

First Soul Skill, Rhinoceros Mark.

The moment Quan Yi's left hand touched the opponent's right arm, he engraved the Rhinoceros Mark on him.

This was the second time Quan Yi had used the Rhinoceros Mark on a person.

The first time, Quan Yi used it once when he fought against Teacher Bai Yan.

But that time, it was cut off by the teacher with a knife, and he didn't see the specific effect.

But this time, he truly saw the horror of the Rhinoceros Mark. It directly caused the opponent to lose his combat power.

The opponent fell directly on the road, with a large amount of blood flowing from his entire right half of his body.

However, Quan Yi did not rashly step forward to check at this time.

Quan Yi took out his shotgun and the round iron ball from the Raging Sun Heart. He engraved the Rhinoceros Mark on the iron ball.

Then.

"Bang, bang, bang"

Quan Yi first aimed at his thigh.

The exploding iron shards pierced into the opponent's thigh, completely depriving him of his ability to escape.

After that, Quan Yi began to aim at the torso, cutting off the opponent's life.

Although Quan Yi wanted to force the opponent to reveal the details of his identity, he was, after all, a Soul Grandmaster, and he would inevitably have some trump cards or backup plans, so he could only kill him first.

After dozens of shots, the opponent completely lost his movement.

"Phew~, it should be safe now, right?"

Quan Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and put away the shotgun.

"Thank you, Young Master, for saving my life."

At this time, the coachman behind him knelt down and kowtowed to Quan Yi.

He had never thought that the young master, being so noble, would stand in front of him, a mere coachman. His eyes suddenly became moist.

His heart was filled with gratitude and guilt.

"As the young master, protecting the lives of my clansmen is my duty. It's good that you're okay."

Quan Yi helped up the coachman and patted the dust off his body.

Then, Quan Yi turned around and began to walk towards the masked man's corpse.

"Young Master, wait, please let me go."

At this time, the coachman grabbed Quan Yi.

His eyes were incomparably firm. He could not let his young master take risks.

"Alright." Seeing the coachman's firm will, Quan Yi could only agree.

The coachman quickly stepped forward, walked to the corpse, and quickly probed the masked man's breath and pulse.

"Young Master, he is already dead."

Quan Yi stepped forward and began to investigate the opponent's information.

He first untied the masked man's mask. He used a shotgun instead of flames to preserve his face in order to determine his identity.

Lifting the mask, the man's face was very ordinary, his age was roughly around forty or fifty years old, and Quan Yi could confirm that he had never seen this person before.

Then, Quan Yi began to search his belongings. He found a Silver Soul Badge from the Great Soul Arena.

It recorded his name, address, martial soul, etc.

However, the information on it was not very credible and could not be taken too seriously.

Besides this, he couldn't find any other useful information.

Quan Yi took out paper and pen from the Raging Sun Heart, and then began to draw according to the other person's face.

After the drawing was done, Quan Yi directly set fire to the corpse.

However, just as he was waiting for the corpse to be completely cremated, Quan Yi found a jade-white object in the ashes.
