Originally, Huang Du and Jiang Ruoxu were both high and mighty, thinking that they had complete control over the situation. They thought Chu Yunfan would not be able to possibly turn the sky upside down.
But now, Chu Yunfan has turned the sky upside down.
Relying on the shocking medicinal strength of the Three-Stripe Purple-gold Pill, Chu Yunfan was able to suppress Jiang Ruoxu with a strength that rivaled his.
According to the current situation, Chu Yunfan’s current combat strength was above theirs. Factoring in the Thunder Winged Beast that was restraining them, they no longer had any advantage. Only a complete disadvantage.
And at this time, the people who were holding up the barrier on the outskirts could not withdraw. They knew that Chu Yunfan had one other trump card that he had yet to reveal. The moment he was not suppressed by the barrier, the whole situation would change. Without anything to control, Chu Yunfan would be absolutely terrifying.
Huang Du felt a chill run down his spine. Back then, in order to control Chu Yunfan and kill him, they had lured him to this desolate mountain range. However, it had become their fatal weakness.
Even if they called for help now, it was already too late. Huang Du was shocked to find that all the signals had been blocked. They had made these preparations earlier, but when he removed the signal block, the result was still the same.
Everything was very clear. Someone else had done the same thing, and who else would do such a thing besides Chu Yunfan?
At this moment, Huang Du suddenly realized Chu Yunfan’s thoughts. It was completely different from what they had expected. Previously, they had mocked Chu Yunfan for being overly emotional. Chu Yunfan was led by his emotions, which was how he had been used by them. For such a person, his weakness was too great.
However, it was only now that Huang Du finally realized that Chu Yunfan was completely different from what they had imagined. Chu Yunfan rushing over to save Gao Hongzhi was only one of his goals. The most important thing was to exterminate them completely.
If it was before, Huang Du would not have thought of this outcome. Even if someone told him, he would not have believed it. This was no different from a snake swallowing an elephant. But now, he realized that this was not a snake swallowing an elephant, but another giant beast swallowing an elephant.
Chu Yunfan was not passively dealing with this matter. On the contrary, he had taken the initiative to set up a trap. This trap looked like they were ganging up to kill Chu Yunfan, but in reality, it was Chu Yunfan taking this opportunity to capture them all in one go.
However, Huang Du could not afford to be distracted at this moment. This was because the Thunder Winged Beast standing before him was too powerful. He was suppressed to a very sullen state despite being on the same cultivation level.
Huang Du’s attacks failed to hit the Thunder Winged Beast. They were all blocked by the wind wings on its body. At the same time, the wind wings on the Thunder Winged Beast turned into two steel blades in this close-range combat situation. In long-range combat, it could spit out wind blades which were extremely terrifying.
Huang Du did not dare to divide his attention. A single distraction could result in his head being chopped off.
And in this short period, Jiang Ruoxu was sent flying back to his side by Chu Yunfan’s punches and punches. If it were any other time, Huang Du would definitely mock Jiang Ruoxu. But now, he was not in the mood.
“Jiang Ruoxu, we have no choice but to give it our all. This kid is already so difficult to deal with. If we let him continue to grow, he’ll definitely become a huge threat to our families!” Huang Du roared.
Jiang Ruoxu, who was standing at the side, let out a bitter laugh. What a joke. He too wanted Chu Yunfan to be killed, but this was not something that he could do just because he wanted to.
Yes, yes, yes. Chu Yunfan was much more difficult to deal with than Jiang Ruoxu had imagined.
“Don’t make sarcastic remarks. He is troublesome, but fortunately, he must’ve used a pill to increase his strength. This isn’t difficult to deal with. As long as we delay him, we will see him defeated!” Jiang Ruoxu said loudly. At this point, he had no other choice.
Hearing Jiang Ruoxu’s high-sounding words, Huang Du knew that Jiang Ruoxu was almost at his limit. If there was even a little hope of winning, Jiang Ruoxu would not have said such words.
“It’s the only way now. If I don’t get in touch with the family soon, they will send someone over soon. At that time, we’ll definitely be able to kill this kid,” Huang Du said, “There are an endless number of people who want to snatch the items which are in this kid’s possession. Right now, they are all on their way here. As long as we hold out for a while longer, he’ll definitely die.”
Compared to their previous arrogance, the current Huang Du and Jiang Ruoxu were no longer as high-spirited as before. Their greatest hope was to stall for time and wait for Chu Yunfan to self-destruct or for outsiders to come to their rescue.
This place was too remote. Originally, it was to prevent Jeang Yuanbin from getting the news and coming to Chu Yunfan’s rescue. Now, it has become their enemy.
“You want to wait for reinforcements to arrive?” Chu Yunfan sneered. With a wave of his hand, countless True Energy condensed into a large hand and grabbed the Ju Que at the other end of the battlefield. It instantly turned into a stream of light and flew into Chu Yunfan’s hand.
“All of you will die today.” As he spoke, Chu Yunfan suddenly moved. “World Overlord. Sky Sword!”
The moment the attack was unleashed, the color of Heaven and Earth instantly changed. The Spirit Energy of nature was stirred by this attack. Countless amounts of True Energy gathered into the sword, turning into an invincible force that tore through the air as it ruthlessly slashed down.
However, the sword was not aimed at Jiang Ruoxu, but at Huang Du.
Huang Du was caught off guard. He had not expected Chu Yunfan to cross Jiang Ruoxu to attack him.
The attack missed Huang Du by a hair’s breadth. He quickly took many steps back before managing to dodge it.
After encountering that life-and-death situation, Huang Du cursed, “Jiang Ruoxu, are you a piece of trash? You can’t even beat a kid!”
Jiang Ruoxu’s face turned from green to white as his eyes flashed with fierce killing intent. He had been part of the martial arts world for so many years, but he had never been scolded like this before. Without the cooperation between the two parties, without the threat of Chu Yunfan and the Thunder Winged Beast, he would have long gone to fight Huang Du with his spear. But right now, he could only swallow his anger.
Jiang Ruoxu thought to himself, ‘Just you wait. After I finish off this brat, I’ll definitely make you pay the price for that insult.’
Jiang Ruoxu had never thought that Chu Yunfan would go past him to attack Huang Du.
Just as the two of them were cursing and scheming, the Thunder Winged Beast finally broke free from Huang Du’s entanglement with Chu Yunfan’s help. It turned into a streak of light and ran toward the boundary of the barrier. Its target was the experts of the Huang family who had set up the barrier.
