Martial Master

This sudden scene shocked everyone.

"Everyone, step back!"

Xiao Zhan's face was filled with rage as he shouted, stepping forward before everyone.

His robes fluttered without wind, and a terrifying aura rapidly rose from his body. He then launched a punch at Wei Chi Cheng, wanting to stop him from committing murder.

"Xiao Zhan, you disciple of the Da Qi Nation killed my Da Wei Nation's third prince, and you still want to stop me? Today, even if I have to risk my life, I will kill this brat!"

Wei Chi Cheng roared domineeringly, his momentum unabated. At the same time, a red halo erupted from him, releasing a scorching aura.

Boom!

The two iron fists collided in the void, and a thunderous sound echoed. The entire area exploded, and beneath Xiao Zhan's feet, the rocks shattered instantly, sending debris flying everywhere, a shocking sight.

Xiao Zhan's feet remained firmly planted on the ground, unmoving, while Wei Chi Cheng performed a somersault and landed not far away.

However, Xiao Zhan had stopped Wei Chi Cheng, yet no one stopped Elder Ling Zhong. His sharp claws quickly reached for Qin Chen, black halos appearing around them, almost tearing through the void.

"Ling Zhong, do not punish the innocent!"

General Yan Huai of Da Qi shouted angrily, gritting his teeth as he charged forward.

"With just you, do you think you can stop me?" Seeing Yan Huai take action, Ling Zhong couldn't help but sneer. The two clashed with a palm strike, and with a loud bang, Yan Huai spat out blood and was sent flying.

He was merely at the peak of Human Level, while Ling Zhong's cultivation was already at the initial stage of Mystic Level. How could he possibly be Ling Zhong's opponent?

"Hmph, overestimating yourself." Ling Zhong sneered, his gaze icy as his black claws reached for Qin Chen.

Before the claws arrived, a terrifying aura had already bound Qin Chen, and the other geniuses from Da Qi around him gasped in shock.

"Young Master Chen!"

"Be careful, Young Master Chen!"

Zi Xun, Zhao Ling Shan, Zhao Wei, Wang Qi Ming, and others showed expressions of alarm, and simultaneously exuded their auras, drawing their weapons to confront Ling Zhong.

In that moment, not a single disciple from Da Qi retreated; a soaring momentum burst forth from them, wanting to compete with Ling Zhong.

"You are ignorant of the world." Ling Zhong coldly laughed, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. If these Da Qi disciples did not know their place, he wouldn't mind killing them all to accompany the Holy Son of Nian Wuji in death.

"Everyone, step back!"

Qin Chen was slightly moved, taking a step forward to block everyone behind him.

Within him, the Nine Star Divine Emperor Art operated at its maximum, locking onto a flaw in Ling Zhong's form, preparing to unleash a thunderous strike.

At that moment, even if it meant exposing his strength, he could not allow Zi Xun and the others to take risks for him.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, a long howl echoed from the sky. Following that, a fierce wind howled, and a massive shadow descended over everyone's heads, rushing toward Ling Zhong with intense wind pressure.

"Who is it?!"

Ling Zhong was greatly startled, feeling a strong sense of crisis. He couldn't afford to attack Qin Chen anymore; he quickly turned and struck out with a claw.

Boom!

The two claws collided, and a powerful force surged, causing Ling Zhong's blood to surge, his steps unsteady.

Looking up, a gigantic eagle-like blood beast soared into the sky. Its sharp claws glistened, and its gaze was piercing. On its back sat a person, coldly looking down.

"The Blood Claw Blue Eagle, it's Master Yuan Feng!"

"Haha, great! Master Yuan Feng is still here; I thought he had left!"

With Master Yuan Feng here, Ling Zhong from the Ghost Immortal Sect could forget about showing off.

The disciples from Da Qi immediately erupted in excited cheers.

"Brother Yuan Feng, please stop Ling Zhong!"

Xiao Zhan was also invigorated.

"Hmph, just a Human Level beast. Let's see how I kill it."

Ling Zhong scoffed. Although the Blood Claw Blue Eagle exuded a terrifying aura, it was merely a Human Level blood beast. He gathered his true qi and struck out again with a claw.
