Chapter 648 - 648 634 The First Confrontation

Chapter 648: 634: The First Confrontation Chapter 648: 634: The First Confrontation Su Zhanze was also in grave danger, but he had experienced the incident at Dragon Slayer Island, he knew that panicking would lead to the breakdown of the team.

Su Zhanze’s martial arts skills had improved significantly, far surpassing Qiao Haoyu’s by many folds.

At least he didn’t panic. Despite Yuan Jingxing’s subpar martial arts training, the training from his father-in-law Jiang Ouyang over the past two months helped his progress greatly. Yuan had even learned some command skills, which made him much calmer.

The approaching Lion-faced Beasts, fierce as ever, were unwilling to give up. They were consumed by a murderous rage and their savage power made them determined to tear everything apart.

Su Zhanze seemed to understand their intentions.

Suddenly, another group charged out, flinging all sorts of hidden weapons. These were Mo Ku’s subordinates. Seeing the Lion-faced Beasts unable to break their defence, they naturally came to help.

Fortunately, he did not bring many people.

Su Zhanze had already retreated back, not wanting to fight alone. He planned to return and help everyone maintain their formation.

Mo Ku, hiding in the forest, was somewhat taken aback. Over an hour had passed, and two youngsters had actually repelled the Lion-faced Beasts’ onslaught.

At this time, a messenger ran back, reporting, “The group of Immortal City Sect disciples in the back has been scattered.”

Finally, they got some good news: only this group was left.

As long as this group could be scattered and lost in the forest for three days, they just had to find a way to stop Guo Mingyu and his group. Then the Island Master would only need to deal with the Xuan Clan.

Mo Ku said, “Good, I’ll fight them too.” Taking up two meteor hammers, each weighing over fifty pounds, he charged forwards. Bang, bang, bang, the meteor hammers swung with such energy that they whipped up a whirlwind and attacked the camp of the Immortal City Sect disciples.

Powerful energy, a huge shockwave.

The Immortal City Sect disciples were forced to keep retreating, not knowing what to do, as their protective layer could break at any moment.

Su Zhanze quickly flew over to confront Mo Ku, unleashing powerful lightning to block the attack of Mo Ku’s meteor hammers.

But after half a day of fighting, his power gradually declined. Moreover, the iron sword in his hand was no valuable weapon. How could it withstand the pounding of two fifty-pound meteor hammers? Bang, bang, bang…

The sword in his hand had long been distorted.

Su Zhanze mumbled, “If I had the Dragon Slayer Sword in my hand, I would have killed this guy a long time ago.”

Mo Ku did not compromise and launched even more furious attacks, forcing Su Zhanze to retreat again and again without any idea of what to do next.

It seemed that any moment, Mo Ku and the Lion-faced Beasts would break their defence layer.

At that moment, dozens of white figures flew over, directly facing the Dragon Slaying Clan and the Lion-faced Beasts.

The newcomer was Guo Mingyu. The dozens of subordinates he brought with him had come to rescue Su Zhanze and his group.

The arrival of Guo Mingyu really surprised Mo Ku, he hadn’t expected them to arrive so quickly.

It turned out that he had only led a part of his group here, no wonder they arrived so quickly.

When the people of the Immortal City Sect saw Guo Mingyu’s arrival, their confidence immediately increased by several folds. They coordinated their attacks with Guo Mingyu, encircling Mo Ku and his followers from all sides.

Seeing that the situation was turning sour, Mo Ku, whose men were already outnumbered, immediately ordered a retreat.

He disappeared into the dense forest with the Lion-faced Beasts.

Su Zhanze quickly ran up to his father-in-law.

Guo Mingyu said,”Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

“Why did the disciples of Immortal City Sect divide into two groups instead of moving together?” Guo Mingyu thought that they would have easily dealt with the sudden appearance of the Dragon Slaying Clan disciples if they had not separated.

Su Zhanze was embarrassed and could only say, “They wanted to lead their own team, and we didn’t agree on teamwork.”

Hearing this, Guo Mingyu got very angry, and said, “At this time, when we are in Demon Valley, we should be working together. We should not divide and have our own agenda. If we do this, we’ll end up fighting individually and become scattered.”

Su Zhanze could only nod repeatedly and say, “You’re right, father-in-law, I’ll remember.”

“Ah, how could it be like this? The overall situation should be prioritized.” Guo Mingyu had also heard some news about the Immortal City split into two factions. One was headed by Ren Xiongbei, and the other was headed by Su Zhanze and Jiang Ouyang, It seemed this was true. But it was too late to say anything, so he just sighed and said, “Alright, as long as you’re safe.”

But the fighting behind them had already ceased.

Someone came to report, “Qiao Haoyu and Ren Haotian weren’t so lucky. They’ve been dispersed by the monsters.”

“Dispersed?” Guo Mingyu was somewhat anxious.

“Yes, now we have only found a few scattered people. The rest have been spread out and might be hiding. There have been many casualties.”

Hearing this, Su Zhanze dared not even look at Guo Mingyu.

Guo Mingyu asked, “What about those monsters?”

“They have all disappeared too,” his subordinate replied.

Hearing this, Guo Mingyu ordered, “You take a dozen men and look for them in the vicinity. Bring them all back.”

The subordinate nodded.

There was no time to waste now. If they really spent a vast amount of time looking for the scattered disciples of the Immortal City Sect in the forest, and the Dragon Slaying Clan seized the opportunity to break the seal, it would be disastrous. It was uncertain how long it would take to find them.

Su Zhanze said, “I’ll stay behind and find them along with the people from the Immortal City Sect.”

“No need,” Guo Mingyu continued, “I figure they won’t attack them again. Their objective was to prevent us from reaching the Demon Valley on time. Since they have achieved their goal, they should not do anything else. If nothing has happened, all should be safe. Just leave a small number of people here to wait and organize a search for their return.”

Su Zhanze nodded in agreement.

Guo Mingyu said, “You should quickly organize things and catch up with Hu Nanyue and his team. I suspect this is just the beginning. I’m not sure what other tricks they have up their sleeves, but I dare say this is just the start and they probably won’t give up easily.”

Su Zhanze saw the sense in his words, so he left a small team behind and followed Guo Mingyu to chase after Hu Nanyue and his allies.

Everything quieted down again.

Guo Mingyu was still somewhat taken aback, “Why didn’t the Immortal City Sect send an experienced person? At the very least, they should have sent Jiang Ouyang. The more I think about it, the more it seems like the Immortal City Sect isn’t taking this seriously. Ren Xiongbei didn’t come, but why didn’t Jiang Ouyang?”

Su Zhanze explained, “Uncle Master Jiang’s health isn’t very good, and that’s why he couldn’t make it.”

“You’re all too childish! Don’t you acknowledge the danger? Didn’t the Dragon Slayer Island incident just happen!”

Su Zhanze nodded in agreement.

“If everyone stayed together, this wouldn’t have happened. I don’t know what to say. How did the Immortal City slip into this state?” Guo Mingyu was left speechless.

Su Zhanze did not dare say anything.

Guo Mingyu added, “Alright, as long as everything is okay. We have to enter the dense woods and deep into the Demon Valley. The Dragon Slaying Clan is probably already near the Demon Valley and may attack at any moment. We need to hurry.”

Yuan Jingxing got his team organized. Leaving behind the severely injured who could hardly walk, he arranged for the Mutant Winged Dragon to protect them as they left the area.

The rest of the group set off, and it was already noon.

“How is Qing’er?” Guo Mingyu asked.

Su Zhanze quickly responded, “Yes, she’s good. She wants to return to the Demon Palace City to check on things. We heard that Yun’er has left the Demon Palace and intends to head to the Wastelands. She’s very worried and is unsure about Yun’er’s current situation.”

Hearing this, Guo Mingyu replied, “Yes, Yun’er has gone to the Wastelands, but she has already found the people from the New City Sect, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

“I heard that the New City Sect returned to Wasteland City.”

“Yes, they have returned to Wasteland City, ready to stand against the Third Demon.”

“Can they handle the Third Demon given the extent of their injuries from the last encounter?”

Guo Mingyu paused for a moment before replying, “Ye Chen should have a solution. I believe in them. If they dare to return, they must be well-prepared. Besides, the No. One Heroes are in the Wastelands now restraining the Third Demon.”

“But I know the leader of the No. One Heroes is Yang Jing. He doesn’t see eye to eye with them and can’t cooperate. What a pity.”

“You don’t need to worry about these matters. We should focus on our own tasks. If Longhun really unseals the Seal, everything will be over. These days I have been having nightmares about it and it’s driving me paranoid,” Guo Mingyu shared his anxieties.

Su Zhanze reassured him, “The Xuan Clan is here, and they have such an excellent Defense System. No one is attacking yet.”

“Heh, Longhun certainly knows about their Defense System. They must have come prepared. Didn’t the Dragon Slayer Island and Wasteland City incidents prove this point exactly?” Guo Mingyu reminded Su Zhanze.

“We are all disciples of the Immortal City Sect. After going through so much, it’s no easy feat that the sect has managed to reestablish itself. Especially in times like these, unity is of utmost importance,” Guo Mingyu lectured Su Zhanze.

“Father-in-law is right,” Su Zhanze agreed.

“We are all from the same sect. If there are any issues, we can lay them out and discuss them clearly. Why bother making it so complicated as if you are sworn enemies? The Immortal City Sect was never like this!” Guo Mingyu criticized.

Su Zhanze lowered his head.

“I should also talk some sense into Ren Xiongbei. I didn’t expect him to become so childish within just two months, hardly acting like an elder.”

Su Zhanze continued forward, and before long, his team caught up with Hu Nanyue’s group. Fortunately, they hadn’t encountered any mishaps.

Only then did Guo Mingyu let out a sigh of relief.
