Chapter 38: Predicament

  Xuanyuan relied on his Tianlong body method, roaming and killing among the white-haired zombies.

  "'Dragon Sword' made itself invincible, able to cut through everything, but Xuan Yuan found that his own strength was still too weak."

  Undoubtedly, even if a white-haired zombie with the power of eighteen flying dragons were to appear before Xuan Yuan, he would be able to strike it down. However, this is on the condition that he not be struck first and lose his "You Long Sword". Once he loses the sword, Xuan Yuan will no longer pose a significant threat in front of these powerful white-haired zombies, who possess extraordinary physical strength despite lacking any divine abilities. Therefore, having a magic treasure is crucial.

  Fortunately, Xuan Yuan broke through to the Dou Ling realm, and his senses have become much stronger. His movements have also become more agile, allowing him to easily dodge attacks. Moreover, after cultivating the Tian Long divine technique of the Yin family, Xuan Yuan's physical strength has already reached a level comparable to that of a peak Dou Ling expert. It's worth noting that Xuan Yuan has only just entered the Dou Ling realm, so even if he can't win in a fight, escaping shouldn't be too much of a problem.

  Xuanyuan swung his sword and killed the six white-haired zombies again, suddenly feeling a scorching power approaching him. Xuanyuan immediately became vigilant, his eyes narrowing slightly.

  Only to see the white-haired zombies under this force, as if they were made of paper, without any resistance at all. This force came from the human race, Xuan Yuan knew that someone was plotting against him.

  A loud explosion, a fierce flame burst out, dozens of white-haired zombies were burned to ashes, Xuan Yuan was also forced back several steps by this burst of energy. Only then did he see that there were thirteen people, each holding a uniform flame long knife, with ferocious faces and gloomy eyes staring at him.

  Everyone's strength is undoubtedly above their own, Xuan Yuan held the 'Tour Dragon Sword' tightly in his hand, sweeping away the white-haired zombies that were attacking him, while looking at this group of uninvited guests.

  "You're Xuan Yuan, aren't you?" Hong Tao stepped forward and said coldly.

  "That's right." Xuan Yuan's head turned cold, the person in front of him, he didn't even recognize, obviously from their clothes they were not people from Moon Flower Gate.

  "Huh? You're not just at the Dou Shi realm, are you? You've actually broken through to the Dou Ling realm in such a short period of time!" Hong Tao sensed the aura emanating from Xuan Yuan's body. With his own Dou Kuang strength, he could naturally see that Xuan Yuan now possessed the power of six flying dragons.

  The concept of the Six Dragons' Power is to use six hundred long ropes, one end tied to six hundred strong wild oxen, and the other end tied to Xuanyuan's body. Even if the six hundred strong wild oxen exert their strength simultaneously, they cannot budge Xuanyuan in the slightest. With just one punch, his aura can break through the defenses of a top-grade artifact!

  However, it is extremely difficult to cultivate the power of the six flying dragons. The team of Douling led by him, every one of them has cultivated for at least thirty years or more to achieve their current accomplishments. It's only been a few days since now, and Xuan Yuan dared to advance so quickly. As the lord of the city, Hong Tao knew that Xuan Yuan must have had a divine technique of the heavenly level.

  Xuanyuan coldly smiled, and the aura on his body suddenly expanded. A divine ability at the peak of the Heavenly stage was released, exerting a powerful pressure that made those Douling at the same level feel very uncomfortable.

  "If I'm not mistaken, you're from Hongri City, aren't you!"

  "You're not stupid, you'll definitely die today." Just as Hong Tao was about to make his move, one of the Dou Ling figures walked out. This Dou Ling figure was the strongest among them, possessing eighteen Flying Dragon powers. His name was Hong Lie.

  "Second brother, let me take care of this myself. Wen's eyes were blinded by him, and today I will personally stab out his eyes, pull out his tongue, and shatter his limbs. His life will be left for you to finish off." Hong Lie grasped the 'Ri Li Dao' in his hand, took three steps forward, and directly approached Xuan Yuan, releasing eighteen flying dragon forces from his body, with a power that was three times that of Xuan Yuan's. How terrifying! He was not one of those demonic creatures who didn't know how to use divine techniques. Xuan Yuan against Hong Lie would undoubtedly be defeated.

  "Alright, big brother, I'll leave it to you." Although Hong Lie was the older brother, his strength was actually inferior to Hong Tao's. The Hong family had a deep grudge against the Xuan Yuan family, so Hong Tao could naturally understand Hong Lie's feelings.

  "What do you have to say before I rip your tongue out?" Hong Lie's 'Fierce Sun Blade' pointed at Xuan Yuan.

  Xuanyuan's face turned bright red with suppressed rage, his chest heaving with the effort. Suddenly, a piercing shriek echoed through the air, audible for kilometers around:

  "Dong Xuan Gongzi, Lü Feng Gongzi, Yu Can Gongzi, save me!"

  Hearing Xuan Yuan's cry for help, Hong Tao and his group couldn't help but burst out laughing. It turned out that this Xuan Yuan was nothing special after all. They had originally thought he was quite formidable!

  Hong Tao burst out laughing and said:

  "Xuanyuan, before you die, I can tell you that the ones who are going to kill you are them. Do you understand? So no matter what, today you will definitely die."

  Hong Tao is a fierce warrior with extraordinary strength and an extremely loud voice. This sentence immediately made the three of them frown, and they cursed in unison:

  "This trash is simply asking for death."

  "What to do now? Hong Tao has realized it and wants to drag us down with him." Yueran was extremely quick-witted, immediately understanding that Hong Tao had seen through their thoughts and was doing this on purpose.

  "Hmph, since he wants it this way, we'll grant him his wish." Dong Xuan said coldly.

  "Absolutely not, if we do that, we'll be bound by them from now on. And with so many Moon Gate true disciples present, can't just kill all of them!" Lu Feng retorted.

  "You've misunderstood me, since Hong Tao dares to try and drag us down with him, he must die. Now that things have been exposed, let's just get it over with. Xuan Yuan will definitely die, and the divine abilities on his body will naturally be ours for the taking. Hong Tao and his group must die. As for the true disciples, those who can't be trusted should all be killed, like Yan Liang and Yan Zi Yun. Those who can guarantee they won't leak any information can stay." Dong Xuan made up her mind in an instant.

  "Alright, let's do it." Yue Can and Lü Feng both responded at the same time. The three of them stepped into the air and descended onto Xuan Yuan's head. Countless white-haired zombies were reduced to fragments under the aura they emitted, dying a death that couldn't be died again. Other demons were shocked by this power and didn't dare approach. The stronger the demon, the higher their spiritual intelligence, and naturally, they would choose to hide from those with greater strength than themselves. In an instant, the area within a 200-meter radius became eerily empty, with only scattered corpses remaining.

  Xuanyuan didn't expect them to be so direct, was he going to die here this time? Xuanyuan coldly looked at Dongxuan, Lü Feng and Yuexi, saying:

  "So you've been planning this all along, deliberately luring me here. It seems you want to use Hong Ri City's blade to kill me, and then let them bear the brunt of Feng Lie Gongzi's anger. You're truly ruthless and cunning."

  Hearing Xuan Yuan's words, Hong Tao couldn't help but shudder all over, casting a venomous glance at Dong Xuan and his group, but he didn't show the slightest emotion on his face.

  "Hmph, it's me, Hong Ri Cheng, who wants to kill you! You little brat, don't think about sowing discord between us. They're just helping us find you." Hong Tao couldn't fathom the thoughts of Dong Xuan and Lü Feng, these two Dou Wangs. However, if they were to make a move, he would definitely end up as nothing but a corpse. Therefore, at this moment, he couldn't acknowledge that he wanted to kill Xuan Yuan. He had to take a big risk and pretend to be on good terms with them, or else he would only die faster. At this moment, he needed to let all the disciples of Yue Hua Men know that he had a close relationship with Dong Xuan and his group, and try to pull them onto the same boat.

  "Hong Chengzhu, you shouldn't be so quick to insult others either. Since you can admit that it was your intention to kill Xuan Yuan, that's enough for us. We never had any plans to join forces with you to kill Xuan Yuan." Dong Xuansen said coldly.

  Hong Tao's expression stiffened, he didn't expect Hong Tao to be so direct. Hong Tao sneered:

  "Anyway, Xuan Yuan is doomed to die. Why bother putting on a show? If you kill him, who would even know? He's just a disciple who hasn't even been in the Moonlight Sect for a day. Is there anyone who would dare go against your two orders and oppose you for his sake?"

  Hong Tao's words were extremely loud and clear. Upon hearing this sentence, many of the true disciples of Renmo who were currently slaying white-haired zombies or humans paused momentarily, their bodies trembling violently before continuing to kill in silence.

  However, at this moment, Yan Liang and Yan Ziyun had already killed a bloody path and came directly to Xuan Yuan's side. Yan Liang coldly gazed at Dong Xuan and Lü Feng in the sky, only these two people's strength made him wary, while Yue Can was not even worth mentioning.

  "Big Brother, Second Brother, what are you two trying to do? Xuan Yuan is personally named by Feng Lie Gong Zi, do you want to let Yue Hua Men bear the wrath of Feng Lie Gong Zi?" Yan Liang shouted angrily.

  The moon smiled faintly and said:

  "Yan Liang, if we kill Xuan Yuan, what do you think will happen?"

  Yan Liang cupped his hands in the direction of the fifth floor of Hong Ri's demonic cave and shouted loudly:

  "I will naturally inform Feng Lie Gongzi of the situation and have you punished."

  Lü Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a single stroke of his hand, the exquisite ghostly sword, Yuè Fēng Jiàn, unleashed a frenzy of violent energy, directly slashing towards Yan Liang. He coldly shouted:

  "Then go die first!"
