"Heaven and Earth Collapse…" Bai Tianhu and Bai Tiankun didn't hesitate for a second, immediately unleashing the Bai family’s ultimate technique, Heaven and Earth Collapse. Both had now reached the cultivation level of Mid-grade Martial Saint, much like Bai Tianyu back then. The moment they executed the move, they felt the void tremble, and the water-blue light screen shook incessantly, appearing as if it might shatter at any moment...
Fang Wu and Fang Liu were visibly astonished when they saw the appearance of the man referred to as Mr. Yu. Having followed Xuanyuan Ruoxing for so long, they hadn't even detected this Mr. Yu’s existence. When Mr. Yu conjured the dome of light, their faces changed dramatically...
At this very moment, feeling the immense power surging from the palms of Bai Tianhu and Bai Tiankun, the complexions of the two turned deathly pale...
However, at this juncture between life and death, they quickly regained their composure. Traces of golden light erupted across their skin, and they raised their hands to meet the strike from Bai Tianhu and Bai Tiankun...
The four clashed fiercely, powerful energies colliding continuously. The blue light screen was battered, swaying precariously, seemingly on the verge of breaking. Yet, no matter how forcefully the four fought or how violently the energy raged, it remained tightly sealed within the confines of the blue barrier...
Bai Tianhu and Bai Tiankun subtly held the upper hand over Fang Wu and Fang Six. With Bai Tianyu positioned nearby, observing intently and launching occasional strikes, within mere breaths, Fang Wu and Fang Six were already heavily wounded...
At this point, seemingly realizing that dragging the fight out would only lead to their demise, Fang Wu and Fang Six exchanged a look, their eyes filled with resolute determination...
"If you wish to kill us, then die together!" Fang Wu and Fang Six shouted in unison, golden light surging across their bodies as tremendous power erupted from within them...
"Attempting self-destruction? Not on my watch!" Seeing their intention to take everyone down with them, Bai Tianyu let out a cold sneer...
"Starfall..." With a flash, he appeared before Fang Wu, his right index finger pointing out forcefully, stabbing directly into Fang Wu's chest. A golden beam shot out from his fingertip, piercing straight through Fang Wu’s heart and leaving behind a gaping wound the size of a basin...
Bai Tianhu and Bai Tiankun simultaneously rushed towards Fang Six, both unleashing their strongest attack, "Years Evanesce..."
Two torrents of power burst forth, slamming violently into Fang Six’s body... and Fang Six’s form utterly exploded...
The ferocious energy impacted everything nearby... Even the water-blue light screen shook violently, ultimately failing to hold, and it shattered completely. That immense power transformed into a streak of golden light that shot straight toward the heavens...
Just then, a figure emerged from the mouth of the street—a person clad in a pure white robe, with short, upright hair. Who else could it be but Fang Jiuyou?
"Xuanyuan Ruoxing, how dare you kill my men! You... you... you... you are courting death..." Fang Jiuyou spat out the words through gritted teeth. He truly hadn't expected Xuanyuan Ruoxing to possess such audacity—not only stealing his woman but also daring to execute his guards. This was nothing short of a slap to his face...
"Young Master Fang, this... this is a misunderstanding..." Seeing Fang Jiuyou return so swiftly, Xuanyuan Ruoxing’s face changed drastically. In his view, since Liang Xiaoke dared to challenge Fang Jiuyou, she must possess some level of combat capability, right? He never imagined that in such a short span, Fang Jiuyou would already be back...
"A misunderstanding? Are you calling me blind? Fang Da, Fang Er, Fang San, Fang Si, kill them all... grind their bones to dust!" Fang Jiuyou roared loudly, charging forward himself...
"Go, go..." Seeing Fang Jiuyou charging at full speed, Xuanyuan Ruoxing's expression shifted severely. He knew that the three Bai Tianyu brothers stood no chance against Fang Jiuyou and his group. Even if they could fight, without the protection of the barrier, the entirety of Miao City would be destroyed by their battle. Fang Jiuyou might not care about the lives of Miao City's citizens, but Xuanyuan Ruoxing could not afford to ignore it—this was, after all, territory of the Tianyuan Empire...
Especially considering Miao City's strategic location; if it were truly ruined, the armies of the Western Chu Empire could advance with frightening ease...
In truth, Xuanyuan Ruoxing didn't need to say anything. Upon sensing the powerful aura emanating from Fang Jiuyou, the three Bai brothers instinctively bolted towards the east, sweeping Xuanyuan Ruoxing up with them as they ran...
The three were filled with confusion. They had just managed to slay two Martial Saints, and now four more had arrived, with one clearly superior to the Martial Saint realm. Was the Yuanling Sect truly this terrifying?
They had only just felt exhilarated by the appearance of a True Immortal expert behind Xuanyuan Ruoxing, excited at finding such a powerful ally, only to immediately face an even stronger reversal. They had been in Miao City for many days, and while they knew of Fang Jiuyou's strength, they never imagined he was this overwhelmingly powerful; just the mere scent of his aura made them feel suffocated...
The three immediately utilized the Bai family's supreme technique, Flickering Past in a Glimpse, covering several miles in just a few strides, rushing out of Miao City. But Fang Jiuyou was no ordinary figure. Perhaps he was arrogant, perhaps he disliked thinking things through, but his strength was genuinely that of a Martial God, and the secrets he held were far beyond what outsiders knew. Less than twenty kilometers after they left Miao City, Fang Jiuyou’s figure materialized, blocking their path...
Seeing Fang Jiuyou radiating intense fury, Xuanyuan Ruoxing vaguely suspected he had stumbled into a massive snare. Though a simple trap, the precision with which the opposing side had predicted Fang Jiuyou’s temperament and judged human nature was astonishingly exact...
At this moment, even knowing it was a trap, even attempting to explain things to Fang Jiuyou, would be utterly futile. It could be said that the moment he accepted Yaorao's invitation, Xuanyuan Ruoxing had sealed his path of retreat...
"Mr. Yu, I implore you to lend me your aid..." Facing Fang Jiuyou suspended in the void, Xuanyuan Ruoxing spoke calmly...
As his voice faded, an ethereal shadow flashed out of thin air and directly merged into his body...
And three white figures simultaneously materialized from the void, each body suspended in the air. Incredibly, they were all Martial Saints...
