Chapter 90: Chapter 87: Like an Egg Perched Precariously

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The relentless barrage of attacks howled in, and Ye Xuan did his best to fend them off. However, the combined effort of two Martial Sect Masters was not easily countered. Soon, his body was covered with bloody marks, riddled with holes.

Fortunately, after performing the Blood Demon Body Sacrifice Skill, much of the pain in Ye Xuan’s body had diminished, allowing him to be indifferent to his numerous injuries. Had he been an ordinary person, he would have fallen under such an onslaught long before.

"How can this beast endure so much?"

Jun Zhantian’s expression darkened. Under their intense assault, even a Half-step Martial Sect would have been dead long ago, yet Ye Xuan, a mere Fifth Grade Martial Master, was still holding up, which made him somewhat impatient.

Originally, Jun Zhantian regarded Ye Xuan as an insignificant ant, yet now, he had been persistently resisting.

"Mr. Xie, don’t hold back any longer, use your killer move. Otherwise, if the Xia family arrives, more complications will arise!" Jun Zhantian called out to Xie Guangbo not far away.

"Alright!"

Xie Guangbo also had no intention of sparing Ye Xuan. The stronger Ye Xuan proved to be, the more alarmed he became, because if Ye Xuan escaped, the future disaster he could bring was unimaginable. A heaven-defying talent like Ye Xuan, once he reached the Martial Sect Master Realm, they, combined, wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

With this thought, Xie Guangbo’s body surged with black, tremendous True Qi. In the darkness, his hands moved, and faintly, like a venomous snake hidden in the night, made a hissing sound. True Qi gathered at his fingertips, emitting a soul-shaking fluctuation.

On the other side, Jun Zhantian too halted his high-frequency attacks. His qi sank into his Dantian, his body briefly stilled and slightly leaned forward. On him, his True Qi seemed to boil, emitting astonishing roars as a lion radiating purple light appeared to form behind him.

The two men’s styles were drastically different. However, both were absolutely formidable; their tyrannical and venomous tactics left no opportunity for Ye Xuan to breathe.

"Purple Extreme Fierce Lion Fist!"

Jun Zhantian stomped his foot and threw a punch fiercely. The True Qi lion shimmering with purple light also charged aggressively towards Ye Xuan.

"Absolute Yin Finger!"

Almost at the same time, Xie Guangbo suddenly pointed out his finger. The black Finger Light pierced through the darkness at high speed, aiming straight for Ye Xuan’s back heart.

Both strikes were extremely ruthless, any one of them hitting Ye Xuan would likely be fatal.

At this moment, facing these two deadly attacks, Ye Xuan’s pupils suddenly constricted. However, just as he was about to react, the Two-headed Demon Tiger beneath him suddenly burst into a frenzy. In the blink of an eye, it threw Ye Xuan off its back amid the two vicious attacks.

Ye Xuan lost his balance and used his hands to stabilize himself on the ground. However, in his line of sight, the area where the Two-headed Demon Tiger had been was blasted gruesomely by the crazy attacks.

"Two-headed!"

Face drastically changing, Ye Xuan roared. However, after being hit by those two powerful moves, the Two-headed Demon Tiger’s body was blasted away, and hot blood rained down like droplets.

In a critical moment, the Two-headed Demon Tiger had thrown Ye Xuan off and took the attacks from Jun and Xie instead. Despite enduring such an assault, the life in the Two-headed Demon Tiger’s bell-like eyes gradually faded away, clearly not going to survive.

"Bastard!"

Sensing the life force fading from the Two-headed Demon Tiger, an extreme murderous aura surged in Ye Xuan’s eyes, as if his last bit of reason was about to be overwhelmed by the urge to kill. At that moment, Ye Xuan also let out a long howl to the sky, his body shooting forward straight as an arrow, slamming a fist toward Jun Zhantian.

"Minor skills, seeking death."

Seeing Ye Xuan attacking him, Jun Zhantian was unexpectedly pleased rather than shocked, a trace of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth. Just as Ye Xuan neared him, he abruptly reached out, intending to cripple Ye Xuan’s punching arm.

However, just as he was about to easily seize Ye Xuan’s arm, the latter’s fist speed suddenly doubled. The lightning-fast punch landed fiercely on Jun Zhantian’s face before the latter could make his grab!

Boom!

Several blood-stained teeth were knocked out, and Jun Zhantian himself was sent flying straight back, landing embarrassingly on the ground and staggering backwards a dozen steps before he could barely stabilize himself.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Jun Zhantian’s face had turned the color of liver.

"Brother Jun, are you alright?"

Xie Guangbo looked at the disheveled Jun Zhantian incredulously, yet immediately felt his question was somewhat redundant. From the looks of it, how could Jun Zhantian be alright?

However, the potential within Ye Xuan was unimaginable. With the realm of a Fifth Grade Martial Master, to beat a Martial Sect Master to the extent of making them lose teeth—if spread, would truly be a tale for the ages.

"I’m fine,"

Jun Zhantian said grimly, then slowly walked toward Ye Xuan, "Don’t interfere next. I’m going to make this beast suffer worse than death."

Having been punched in front of Xie Guangbo was utterly humiliating and unexpected for Jun Zhantian. Now, he wasn’t just focused on killing Ye Xuan; he wanted to brutally torture Ye Xuan, making him die a miserable and painful death.

After his sudden outburst just now, Ye Xuan, like a fleeting flower, quickly saw his momentum wane. No matter what, with his inadequate cultivation, even if his potential was immense, a brief surge in power couldn’t possibly kill a Martial Sect Master.

Planting the Star-cutting Saber into the ground, the blood-colored talisman on Ye Xuan’s forehead began to dim. This was a sign that the duration of the Blood Demon Body Sacrifice Skill had reached its limit. Now, Ye Xuan was undoubtedly entering a period of weakness, possessing not the slightest ability to confront the two great Martial Sect Masters before him.

At this moment, Ye Xuan could truly be said to be trapped in a hopeless situation, a predicament where death was certain.

Jun Zhantian could sense Ye Xuan’s gradually weakening aura, and realizing that the latter no longer had the strength to resist, he could attack at will.

"You pathetic ants, even at death’s door you still struggle. I will cripple this disgraceful arm of yours first!"

Taking steps toward Ye Xuan, Jun Zhantian’s eyes were filled with tangible murderous intent.

However, just as he was about to strike Ye Xuan, a startling green True Qi, resembling a whip, suddenly descended from the sky, fiercely slamming into Jun Zhantian and forcing him to withdraw his attack and quickly evade, retreating by more than a dozen steps.

"Who?"

His attack interrupted, Jun Zhantian’s expression also darkened as he looked toward the direction from which the True Qi had come. He saw an elder dressed in black appearing in his field of vision, landing in front of Ye Xuan.

"Is it you, Elder Xi?"

Both Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo frowned immediately, their expressions turning grim. Elder Xi’s intervention at this time—could it be he intended to save this young man’s life?

"Gentlemen, may I ask you to do an old man a favor? Could this Ye Xuan be spared his life? I can guarantee with my personal integrity that he will vanish like vapor, never to appear again or involve himself in your family conflicts," pleaded Elder Xi, glancing at Ye Xuan before sighing.

"Elder Xi, are you joking? Our feud with this little vermin is irreconcilable, and there’s no possibility of resolution. He must die today. Please step aside, Elder."

How could the two of them agree to spare Ye Xuan? Not to mention that their enmity was a matter of life and death; were they to spare Ye Xuan now, when he grew stronger and sought revenge, what then? To them, Elder Xi’s guarantee was worthless.

"Elder Xi, would you really oppose both the Jun and Xie families for the sake of this irrelevant boy?" Xie Guangbo also exclaimed sternly.

Faced with the stern rebukes of the two before him, Elder Xi’s brow furrowed even tighter. However, a few moments later, he made up his mind. "This child is a prodigy of his generation; to die by the hands of these two would truly be a pity. Very well, today I shall create a good relationship and protect him with all my strength."

With that thought, he also activated his True Qi, and from behind him, a green treasure sword automatically flew out, emitting a fierce buzzing sound as it landed in his hand.

Seeing this, Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo realized that Elder Xi was resolutely determined to protect Ye Xuan. The elder’s cultivation was higher than theirs by a stage, being a Second Grade Martial Sect Master. The two of them together could at best match him, let alone kill a person in his protection.

"How can such a little vermin have such good luck," growled Jun Zhantian inwardly. Every time he tried to kill Ye Xuan, someone intervened. Last time it was Xia Tianyou, and now Elder Xi—it was infuriating.

"Elder Xi, since you refuse to give the Jun family face, it seems we no longer need to show any courtesy. You can’t stop what happens today."

Just then, from within the forest, a hoarse, old voice sounded, followed by a formidable elder dressed in hemp approaching rapidly, positioning himself between Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo. His aura was no less powerful than that of Elder Xi!

"Ancestor!"

Upon seeing the elder in hemp, a look of wild joy surged on Jun Zhantian’s face. This elder was indeed the ancestor of the Jun family and also a Second Grade Martial Sect Master. His arrival was perfectly timed.

"This is bad."

Seeing the arrival of the hemp-clothed elder, Elder Xi inwardly cursed. With his strength, he could at most handle the hemp-clothed elder alone; he had no time to deal with the other two, rendering his desire to protect Ye Xuan desire without the ability.

"Zhantian, I’ll handle Elder Xi. You and the head of the Xie family act swiftly to kill that Ye family boy. Don’t drag it out this time; take his life and eliminate future troubles!" ordered the hemp-clothed elder in a cold voice.

"Yes!"

Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo exchanged glances, then burst forth aggressively. After several close calls that had almost allowed Ye Xuan to escape death, they dared not harbor any other thoughts; this time, they had to defeat Ye Xuan in one blow.

Under the offensive of these two Martial Sect Masters, Ye Xuan, in his weakened state, had absolutely no power to resist!

"You little vermin, go to hell!"

A sinister gleam flashed in Jun Zhantian’s eyes as he finally had the chance, after great effort, to kill Ye Xuan.

In the blink of an eye, just as the two reached within ten meters of Ye Xuan, and their attacks locked onto him, ready to put him to death, a dark shadow unexpectedly appeared in front of him like a phantom, unleashing smooth and delicate palms that directly counter-attacked Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo.

The moment their palms made contact, Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo’s eyes widened in horror. The next moment, both spat blood and were blown back simultaneously.

After repelling Jun Zhantian and Xie Guangbo, the dark shadow didn’t linger. Snatching the weakened Ye Xuan off the ground, it dashed toward the forest behind them, moving at a speed so fast that, even carrying a person, it was like a phantom, quickly disappearing without a trace.
