Chapter 33: Stop

  As the battle went on, Zhang Fang's situation became increasingly dire. Even Zhang Cheng could feel his physical strength and true energy plummeting rapidly, with no signs of recovery in sight, and he couldn't hold on for much longer.

  However, Zhang Fang knew that if he lost this battle, the result would be death for him, and destruction for his family.

  With this idea in mind, a surge of energy was generated within his body, supporting him and preventing him from falling.

  "Zhang Fang, I really didn't expect your earth-shattering fist to have such power. With the cultivation of a 7th-grade martial artist, you defeated Wang Tiancheng, an 8th-grade martial artist, and yet you can still hold on against me until now. To be honest, I really admire you." Li Changqing said sincerely, but after finishing this sentence, his expression turned cold, and he said: "However, today I will not let you off, I hope that in your next life, you will not oppose our Li family again."

  Then Li Changqing's body suddenly burst out, his speed directly increased by a factor of two, his right fist shot out, and he broke through Zhang Fang's defense to strike him in the abdomen. Instantly, Zhang Fang was sent flying into the air, and then heavily fell to the ground with a "whoosh" sound, spitting out a large mouthful of fresh blood.

  At once, Zhang Fang's whole body curled up there, his face turned deathly pale, and all the strength in his body was drained, leaving him unable to get up.

  The pain in his abdomen was like a steel knife, stabbing into his new house and brain one by one, making him almost faint.

  "Zhang Fang, don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being born at the wrong time!" Li Changqing had no intention of sparing Zhang Fang after knocking him flying, and came back to his side once again, raising his right hand high, ready to deliver the final blow on the spot.

  "Halt!" But just at this moment, a loud shout came from the Zhang family's side, and even the people of the Zhang family were startled.

  Immediately everyone looked towards the source of the sound, and the owner of the voice was surprisingly Zhang Cheng who had just arrived.

  Feeling the gaze of these so-called clansmen, Zhang Cheng felt a wave of disdain in his heart. Seeing that his family head was about to be killed and yet remaining unmoved, what use were such clansmen?

  Zhang Cheng glanced at the people below with a look of disdain, then stepped lightly onto the battlefield.

  Li Changqing didn't seem to have expected that someone from the Zhang family would dare to stop him, so he was startled by Zhang Cheng's sudden outburst and his hands also paused involuntarily. When he saw that it was Zhang Cheng who had spoken up, he was even more surprised.

  If you want to say who Li Changqing Zhang's family is most afraid of, then it must be Zhang Cheng. Because this Zhang Cheng is the fiancé of the Ouyang family, he receives care from the Ouyang family. He dares to kill Zhang Fang and dare to destroy the Zhang family, but he does not dare to kill Zhang Cheng.

  Because if Zhang Cheng is killed, the Ouyang family will definitely not let it go, and at that time, even with Tianfengmen as their backing, the Li family will find it hard to escape the fate of destruction.

  He had also investigated before, and Zhang Cheng had gone missing a month ago. He guessed that Zhang Cheng was likely to be in trouble.

  He could, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Cheng, who had been missing for a month, appeared perfectly fine, and judging from the situation, his illness seemed to have been taken care of as well. Seeing this, his heart skipped a beat.

  It is worth noting that Zhang Fang had previously sought out famous doctors for Zhang Cheng's illness, but ultimately could not find a way to cure him.

  But now that he's been rescued, he guessed that Zhang Cheng's disappearance for a month might have had some strange encounters, and he must have met a certain cultivator, otherwise his illness wouldn't have recovered so quickly.

  At the thought of this, his heart couldn't help but become heavy. After all, he didn't know what kind of power Zhang Cheng's cultivator had, and which one was more formidable compared to Tianfeng Gate.

  So for a while, he didn't know whether he should continue killing Zhang Fang or not.

  The people watching the play below were also stunned, because in their hearts, Zhang Cheng's two words and sickly weakling are equal, but he appeared healthy and strong in front of them at this moment, which made it difficult for them to accept for a while.

  It's not just them, Zhang Hu, Li Meng, and Wang Chen all looked at Zhang Cheng with jealous eyes, because he was doing well, so they had even less hope of being with Ouyang Qianyun.

  Especially Zhang Hu, because his father had told him that after Zhang Cheng died, he would persuade the Ouyang family to remarry Ouyang Qianyun to him.

  But now, all of this is impossible.

  So he was secretly praying in his heart that Li Changqing would kill Zhang Cheng, and then he might have a chance to be with Ouyang Qianyun.

  "Mr. Li, I'd like to ask, what is this competition for? And who is it aimed at?" Zhang Cheng asked calmly.

  "Of course the competition is for first place, and it's directed at us, the Li, Wang, and Zhang families. What's going on?" Li Changqing didn't know what kind of trickery Zhang was up to.

  "Oh, since it's a competition, I'd like to ask, is fairness and justice required?" Zhang Cheng asked again.

  "This is natural, but what exactly do you want to say?" Li Changqing asked somewhat impatiently.

  "In that case, why are you two eighth-grade masters taking turns fighting against the master of the Zhang family? Is this fairness and justice?" Zhang Cheng asked.

  Li Changqing was quite displeased with Zhang Cheng's questioning, and she shot him a glance, saying: "Hmph! I merely issued a challenge to the Zhang family, it was your father who voluntarily accepted, what does this have to do with us? Moreover, this battle has yet to conclude, who gave you the right to intervene?"

  Li Changqing was afraid of Zhang Cheng, but that didn't mean he could bully him on his own head, so he immediately counterattacked.

  "I didn't stop this fight, it's just that we admitted defeat in this battle, so there was no need to continue fighting." Zhang Cheng replied.

  "Admit defeat? When was that? I didn't hear Zhang Fang say he admitted defeat!" Li Changqing asked irritably.

  "I spoke on behalf of my father, what's wrong, can't I?" Zhang Cheng looked straight at Li Changqing and said slowly.

  "Zhang Fang, are you really going to admit defeat?" Li Changqing was still considering whether or not to kill Zhang Fang, but seeing Zhang Cheng like this, she definitely had to kill him.

  So he wanted to provoke Zhang Fang a little bit, and with his understanding of Zhang Fang, he knew that Zhang would never admit defeat.

  "I give up!" Zhang Fang knew that at this moment, he was absolutely no match for Li Changqing. Moreover, he knew about Zhang Cheng's apprenticeship with Bai Danchenzi and thought that Zhang Cheng had found Bai Danchenzi, so he didn't persist anymore.

  "What? I didn't hear that wrong, did I? Zhang Jia's master Zhang Fang actually admitted defeat!" Li Changqing also didn't expect Zhang Fang to suddenly admit defeat, which was out of character for him.

  However, he didn't want to miss this opportunity either, so he provoked Zhang Fang a little, hoping to stir up his temper and then fight with him desperately.

  But this time he was thoroughly disappointed, Zhang Fang didn't even acknowledge his sarcasm.

  Zhang Fang is actually not an impulsive person, the reason why he gives them this impulsive feeling is completely intentional, after all, the situation in Zhang's family was not very optimistic before, if he showed himself to be too clever, then he would suffer from the suppression of both families, so he had no choice but to do so.

  Now they have Danchenzi as a backing, how can he continue to pretend to be stupid.

  "Someone from the Zhang family, a few of those who aren't dead come up and carry the master down!" But Zhang Cheng didn't show any intention of leaving, he just shouted out towards his back.

  Before long, a group of people came and carried Zhang Fang away, but Zhang Cheng showed no intention of going down.
