Zhan Zusheng continued to glare at the six old men, his voice filled with disdain. "You think he cares about your loyalty? He will crush you all without a second thought!"
The old men exchanged nervous glances, realizing that their actions had not deterred Tan Yun, but rather fueled his determination. They were caught in a dilemma, torn between their loyalty to the young master and the impending threat posed by Tan Yun.
"What should we do now?" one of the elders muttered under his breath, his hands trembling around the hilt of the Divine Sword.
"We must make a choice," another elder replied. "We can either fight and risk our lives or negotiate with him. But can we really trust him?"
Zhan Zusheng, seeing their hesitation, shouted, "Enough! If you continue to waver, it will only lead to your demise! You must act decisively!"
With their backs against the wall, the elders took a deep breath and steeled themselves for the confrontation. They had to protect their young master, even if it meant facing the wrath of Tan Yun head-on.
As they advanced, Tan Yun's expression remained calm, a smirk playing on his lips. He was ready for whatever they would throw at him, confident in his own abilities.
"Come then, show me what you’ve got," he taunted, his voice laced with challenge.
The tension in the air thickened as the two sides prepared for an inevitable clash, each aware that this battle would determine their fate and the future of their young master.
Then, the six old men engaged in a fierce battle with Zhan Zusheng and the other three!
At that moment, Tan Yun was holding the severely injured Jiang Fei Xu by the neck with his right hand and flying rapidly out of the forest.
Jiang Fei Xu, frightened, said, "My people have already held off Zhan Zusheng and the others. Shouldn't you keep your promise and not kill this young master?"
Tan Yun's lips curled into a sinister smile, "Of course, I always keep my word. Since I said I wouldn't kill you, I definitely won't."
Just when Jiang Fei Xu let out a sigh of relief, thinking he had escaped death, Tan Yun's next words made him shake with anger!
Tan Yun calmly stated, "I won’t kill you, but that doesn’t mean others won’t take action against you."
"Yingying, it's up to you now!"
Saying this, Tan Yun threw Jiang Fei Xu into the air.
"Whoosh!"
Tuoba Yingying, dressed in a white skirt, appeared beside Jiang Fei Xu in a flash, extending a slender jade finger towards his forehead!
The severely injured Jiang Fei Xu screamed hoarsely, "Ah! No…"
"Bang!"
Jiang Fei Xu's scream abruptly stopped, his entire head exploded, and his body fell amidst a spray of blood in the forest.
His scream before dying was loud, and at this moment, the six old men fighting in the sky above the forest with Zhan Zusheng, A-Da, and A Er changed their expressions drastically, releasing their divine consciousness to cover the area.
When they saw that their young master had met a tragic end, the six old men were furious:
"You damned brat, you actually killed our young master!"
"You’re dead! You little bastard, you’re finished!"
"…"
After the six old men roared in rage, they turned to Zhan Zusheng and the others, saying, "We will cease hostilities from now on!"
The leading old man looked at Zhan Zusheng and said, "Third Young Master Zhan, our common enemy is that brat. I hope you will assist me in capturing him."
"At that time, I only want that brat's life; as for the fierce spirit, it will all be yours, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Zhan Zusheng nodded without hesitation, "No problem!"
Then, Zhan Zusheng led A-Da and A Er in pursuit of Tan Yun!
At this time, the leading old man instructed one of the fourth-grade earth deities, "You take the young master’s corpse back to Divine King Jiang Long City and report the matter of the young master’s murder to the divine king lord!"
"The rest of us will follow me in pursuit!"
After saying this, the old man led two fifth-grade earth deities and two fourth-grade earth deities, closely following Zhan Zusheng and the others in the pursuit of Tan Yun…
