Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Several figures hurriedly arrived next to Tang Yucheng and his group.

Old Master Tang lifted his head to glance at the Black Mist Serpent in the sky, then turned to look at Tang Yucheng with a complex expression.

"Great-grandfather, I'm sorry. It was my fault, I almost destroyed the Tang Family. Today, let me atone for the mistakes I've made!" Tang Yucheng said apologetically as he bowed deeply to Old Master Tang.

Whoosh!

Without waiting for Old Master Tang to reply, Tang Yucheng charged directly at the Black Mist Serpent.

"Yucheng!" Old Master Tang's expression tensed as he leapt into the air, also charging towards the Black Mist Serpent!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Old Master Tang, Lou Family Patriarch, and Mo Tiancheng charged towards Elder Zhao and his group.

Bang bang bang!

Loud crashing noises erupted as Old Master Tang, Tang Yucheng, and the Black Mist Serpent engaged in fierce battle.

Old Master Tang was a Venerable Realm powerhouse. Although he could only display the strength of a Peak Semi Venerable at the moment, his keen vision and experience were evident, showing no sign of weakness in the fight against the Black Mist Serpent.

Tang Yucheng fought desperately, driven by his sense of guilt. He abandoned any care for his own safety, focusing only on taking down the Black Mist Serpent; otherwise, the Tang Family would be in danger!

The two, one experienced and shrewd, the other bold and reckless, surprisingly matched the Black Mist Serpent evenly for a time!

On the other side, the battle's outcome was clear from the start.

Old Master Tang, Lou Family Patriarch, and Mo Tiancheng had just broken through to the Semi Venerable Realm, while Zhuge Qingfeng, Zhuge Junlie, and Jun Cheng, under the effect of the Secret Method, exhibited strength not weaker than mid-stage Semi Venerables. Elder Zhao was at the peak of the Semi Venerable Realm. As soon as the two sides clashed, the three from the Lou Family immediately fell into a dangerous situation.

"Since you've come to die on your own, I'll show some mercy today and send you to your death. By eliminating you, it will be easier to destroy the Tang Family, Lou Family, and Mo Family!" said Elder Zhao coldly, as he fiercely slapped towards the head of the Lou Family Patriarch.

Zhuge Qingfeng and his companions burst forth in power, severely suppressing the three from the Lou Family.

"Be careful!"

"Oh no!"

Old Master Tang and Mo Tiancheng both shouted in alarm, intending to come to the rescue of Lou Family Patriarch, but they were tightly pinned down by Zhuge Junlie and Zhuge Jun Cheng, unable to break free.

Bang!

A muffled sound emerged as Lou Family Patriarch, at a critical moment, shifted his body so that Elder Zhao's palm did not land on his head, but on his shoulder instead.

Crack!

The sound of bone snapping echoed, and Lou Family Patriarch's left arm was instantly shattered by Elder Zhao, turning into a mist of blood.

"Hmm!" Lou Family Patriarch grunted, his face deathly pale as he retreated backward.

"Think you can run?" Zhuge Qingfeng said with a cold smile, ruthlessly kicking Lou Family Patriarch in the chest.

Splat!

Lou Family Patriarch spat a mouthful of blood as his body was sent flying backwards.

"Old Lou!" Old Master Tang and Mo Tiancheng's faces both changed, but they were too tightly restrained, unable to spare any effort to come to Lou Family Patriarch's aid.

In the air, Old Master Tang noticed the crisis befalling Lou Family Patriarch, his expression changing, as he leapt to attack Elder Zhao. Tang Yucheng coordinated with a frenzied assault, attempting to hold back the Black Mist Serpent.

"Roar!"

A roar erupted, and the Black Mist Serpent opened its enormous jaws to viciously bite at Tang Yucheng. Its tail whipped fiercely towards Old Master Tang.

The two men's faces changed color; they hurriedly resisted with all their strength, completely unable to escape!

Whoosh!

Elder Zhao's figure flashed as he charged towards the two Old Master Tang, leaving Lou Family Patriarch in the hands of Zhuge Qingfeng.

"Old Lou, do you remember that proud look on your face when I first approached your family to collaborate?"

Zhuge Qingfeng slowly walked towards the fallen Lou Family Patriarch, his eyes cold as he began, "Back then, when your family's commercial power was weak, our Zhuge Family needed martial support. It was such an appropriate cooperation, yet you, this stubborn old man, arrogantly refused me? Now what? You are about to die by my hand, do you have regrets?"

Cough, cough…Puh!

Lou Family Patriarch coughed twice, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. He struggled to his feet, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked coldly at Zhuge Qingfeng, "Regrets? The thing I regret most is not killing you when I first spotted your unusual ambitions!"

"No, no, no, you wouldn't kill me. Back then, I was about to betray the Chixiao Sect. With our Martial Families and the Martial Sects being at odds for so long, how could you kill me? You must have been hoping I'd sever ties with Chixiao Sect, right?"

Zhuge Qingfeng, with a mocking expression, said, "Now, my Zhuge Family has indeed turned against Chixiao Sect. But you did not anticipate that the first to suffer after our rift would not be Chixiao Sect or my Zhuge Family but you, old man? Haha..."

Lou Family Patriarch's face changed.

In the beginning, he refused the cooperation with the Zhuge Family, truly with the intention of enjoying the spectacle of Chixiao Sect's downfall. The long-standing disputes between their Martial Families and the Martial Sects were not something time could erase. Yet, he had not anticipated that the Lou Family would now be receiving great favors from Jiang Chen, who had intricate connections with Chixiao Sect.

At this thought, he couldn't help but sigh, "Fate mocks us!"

If he had killed Zhuge Qingfeng back then, perhaps the events of today would not have unfolded!

As Lou Family Patriarch lamented internally, he watched Zhuge Qingfeng approach him, slowly closing his eyes, waiting for death to arrive.

"Old Lou!"

"Brother Lou!"

Outcries of shock arose as Old Master Tang and the others displayed an urgent look but were helpless, utterly unable to break free from their opponents.

"Hurry up!"

A commanding voice bellowed, the Black Mist Serpent urged Zhuge Qingfeng on, its eyes revealing a sinister look. It sensed an annoying presence but could not pinpoint its location.

"Yes!"

Zhuge Qingfeng responded respectfully, his face contorted as he ruthlessly struck towards Lou Family Patriarch's forehead, shouting, "Old Lou, go to hell!"

Swoosh!

A flash of scarlet blade light suddenly burst forth, shooting rapidly towards Zhuge Qingfeng.

Zhuge Qingfeng's face drastically changed, and he hurriedly pulled back!

Shi!

The sound of a blade entering flesh rang out, slicing through Zhuge Qingfeng's palm. A figure appeared in front of Lou Family Patriarch.

"Jiang Chen?! How is this possible? How did you get close?" Zhuge Qingfeng darkly stared at the suddenly appeared Jiang Chen, his eyes filled with shock.

Although everyone was engaged in fierce battles, they were also constantly aware of their surroundings; however, aside from the Black Mist Serpent sensing something was amiss, no one had noticed Jiang Chen's arrival.

Jiang Chen steadied Lou Family Patriarch with a hand, glanced at Zhuge Qingfeng, ignored him, and turned to look at the other two battle areas.

"I'm talking to you!"

Being ignored, Zhuge Qingfeng exploded in wrath, a rush of humiliation overwhelming him!
