Liang Xiaoke stood right in the center of the backyard, enveloped entirely by a ghostly aura, the terrifying chill permeating the entire space. Though it was bright daylight, everyone felt an ice-cold darkness; even Fox Yanmeng and her group felt their bodies turn frigid, let alone Bai Jingfei and the others…

“Heh heh heh…” A sinister grin split Liang Xiaoke’s lips as his massive frame took a single, deliberate step forward. The sole of his foot crushed the bluestone pavement beneath him into dust. Bai Jingfei and the others immediately recoiled a step, each of them sucking in a sharp breath of cold air…

Any one of them could smash the floor like that with a full exertion of their True Essence Power, but to do it so casually, with such effortless force—that level of power was simply beyond their grasp.

“Die then…” Liang Xiaoke snarled, pushing off the ground with both legs. His body blurred into an afterimage, and in the blink of an eye, he stood before Bai Jingfei and the rest. He raised a sharpened claw and brought it down toward Bai Zhan’s head…

Bai Zhan’s heart seized with terror. His True Essence Power cycled frantically as he desperately raised both arms, attempting to ward off Liang Xiaoke’s incoming strike…

The others simultaneously channeled their True Essence Power, attacking Liang Xiaoke with fists, open palms, or pointing fingers…

But Liang Xiaoke’s speed was too immense. His single blow slammed into Bai Zhan’s arms, the colossal force shattering both limbs instantly. The terrifying palm then swung down, mercilessly meeting his skull…

With a crisp crack, Bai Zhan’s entire head exploded. The tremendous impact also snapped both his legs, dropping his body into a kneeling posture on the ground…

A column of vital essence shot upward, but Liang Xiaoke didn't immediately absorb it. Instead, he swept his hand toward Bai Jingfei and the others. A boundless surge of power formed between his fingers, sweeping the five of them away like chaff…

All five spat up a mouthful of blood. They never imagined Liang Xiaoke’s strength was so vast; a single individual had struck them down, leaving the five of them utterly unable to counterattack…

Liang Xiaoke did not press the attack. Instead, he snatched up Bai Zhan, ignoring the skull that was still oozing brains and blood, and bit down viciously on his neck, draining his vital essence and blood while he was still lingering on the edge of death…

In what felt like a mere blink, all of Bai Zhan’s vital essence was sucked dry, leaving behind nothing but a desiccated husk…

“You fiend! I’ll fight you to the death!” Seeing Liang Xiaoke reduce Bai Zhan to a dried corpse in just a few breaths, Bai Ye and Bai Ting, who were close to Bai Zhan, cried out in horror and charged at Liang Xiaoke like maddened beasts…

“Heh heh, I’m a Jiangshi, not some fiend, though I suppose it’s much the same in practice…” Liang Xiaoke let out a sinister laugh, his body flickering away as he raised both arms to seize the two attackers…

“Shattering Kill Fist…” Bai Ting and Bai Ye roared almost in unison. A chilling intent of slaughter diffused outward, and their potent True Essence Power coalesced into terrifying blasts of fist energy, slamming hard into Liang Xiaoke’s body. Two bloody holes instantly appeared on his chest, yet Liang Xiaoke didn't even flinch, his forward momentum unbroken…

“Die for me!” he bellowed, his right palm shooting out like lightning toward Bai Ye, while his left hand shifted from a palm strike to a punch aimed at Bai Ting’s heart…

Seeing Bai Ye and Bai Ting about to fall victim once more, Bai Jingfei snorted coldly and suddenly stepped forward, his finger shooting out…

Soul Shattering Finger…

A searing arc of force projected from his fingertip, aiming directly for the center of Liang Xiaoke’s brow…

Liang Xiaoke’s spirit jolted. His right palm, already thrust forward, had to convert into a fist to meet the incoming finger beam…

The massive impact pulverized the stream of energy, but a noticeable dent appeared on his knuckle. Bai Ye and Bai Ting seized the moment, landing synchronized spinning kicks directly into Liang Xiaoke’s abdomen. The chaotic True Essence Power erupted violently, sending Liang Xiaoke reeling backward, his lower belly a mess of torn flesh and gore…

“I…” Liang Xiaoke roared in fury, vaulting back to his feet. He wiped at the wound on his belly, rage coloring his features…

“All of us together! Focus on attacking his head!” Bai Jingfei called out lightly, stepping forward as he once again cycled the True Essence Power within him…

Hearing this, Ye Jingyu’s expression shifted slightly. He truly hadn't expected Bai Jingfei to deduce that Liang Xiaoke’s weakness lay in his head based on that single finger strike…

But over on the other side, Liang Xiaoke still appeared entirely unconcerned. A grey-white current of Two Forms True Qi wrapped around his lower abdomen, relentlessly mending the laceration, while his faintly luminous blue eyes emitted chilling glares…

The fear in Bai Jingfei’s eyes had long vanished. He charged first, unleashing a palm strike. Violent True Essence Power formed into a gigantic hand, slamming down toward the crown of Liang Xiaoke’s head…

Liang Xiaoke sneered, meeting the gigantic palm with a backhand punch that shattered it to pieces. He immediately followed up with a punch aimed at Bai Jingfei’s heart, but Bai Ye and Bai Ting had closed the distance simultaneously. Their combined punches collided with Liang Xiaoke’s, sending all three staggering back. However, Liang Xiaoke only retreated a single step, while Bai Ye and Bai Ting were thrown back dozens of paces, blood now trickling from their mouths…

At this moment, Bai Da and Bai Wu’s figures arrived. They did not use fists, but their legs, employing the Bai family’s ultimate technique: Sweeping Away a Thousand Armies…

Both were Grandmasters, and this move caused the very void to boom with sound, truly possessing the might to sweep through armies. Even the current Liang Xiaoke dared not treat this attack lightly. He crossed his arms to guard his head as the force of their kicks slammed into his forearms, True Essence Power detonating on impact…

The immense force once again forced Liang Xiaoke backward repeatedly, his arms becoming a bloody pulp. Yet, Liang Xiaoke cared nothing for the injury; it only served to ignite his savage nature…

He roared aloud, ignoring the state of his arms, and charged at full speed toward Bai Jingfei…

Bai Jingfei showed no fear. The True Essence Power within him suddenly gathered onto his right fist, which began to shimmer with streaks of lightning. His terrifying aura exploded forth completely…

“Thunderstorm Fist…” Bai Jingfei yelled, stepping forward and unleashing a punch like lightning. A massive fist shadow, laced with frenzied electricity, howled through the air…

With such an utterly terrifying punch, Bai Jingfei was certain that even if the opponent possessed three heads and six arms, they could not withstand it…

“Break…” Liang Xiaoke coldly snorted. A sliver of grey-white light flashed across his right fist, and the Two Forms True Qi, representing destructive power, erupted fully, instantly shattering the lightning-laden fist shadow. The supremely potent force then continued its trajectory directly toward Bai Jingfei…
