A young man with a short stature let out a loud roar, and his body suddenly emitted waves of black mist. The black mist quickly condensed and transformed into a full-body black armor in the blink of an eye. He swung his hand, and a black short spear appeared in his hand. Without hesitation, he swung it with force, and the spear flew towards Wen Tianhe with a whistling sound. Immediately after, a second spear appeared in his hand, followed by a third one!

  Hearing the sky and spreading his arms, his clothes and hair moved without wind, and in an instant, three intangible shields condensed in front of him. As soon as the shields were formed, they locked onto the black short spear that was swooshing over. After a sharp explosion, the intangible shield and the black short spear both dissipated into thin air, followed by another explosion.

  After the three short spears disappeared, Wen Tian and Leng Xiao laughed coldly, waved their hands, and a sharp whistling sound pierced through the air. The black armor on the young man's body suddenly rang out in disarray, as if countless crossbow bolts were hitting him at once. Every time the ringing stopped, the black armor would flash with a faint light before returning to its original color. However, the ringing continued unabated, and the black armor kept flashing faintly. But Guo Yao's sharp eyes could see that although this black armor had blocked all attacks, it was getting thinner and thinner, as if it might shatter at any moment.

  Kuo Yi's confidence greatly increased, as long as Wen Tianhe's offensive continued, this kid's defeat was only a matter of time. He looked at Wen Tianhe, and indeed, he wasn't an ordinary person! However, after seeing Wen Tianhe's situation clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked. He discovered that Wen Tianhe's face was pale, with sweat the size of soybeans rolling down, his body shaking like a dry leaf in the wind, obviously already at the end of his strength.

  Guo Yi didn't have time to think much, he let out a loud shout and charged at the short young man, followed closely by Jitui. Nalan Qing hesitated for a moment before also rushing forward. These three people, with Nalan Qing having the most experience in killing, Guo Yi's palm strength being the strongest, and Jitui, although not very old, seemed to have a natural talent for fighting, worked together for the first time, yet their coordination was surprisingly tacit, whether it was taking the initiative or filling in gaps, they were seamless!

  That short young man was extremely skilled with his hands, he single-handedly fought against three people and had both offense and defense, occasionally countering Wen Tianhe's sneak attacks, for a time without any signs of defeat.

  Finally, exhausted Wen Tian and Ruo sat on the ground, unable to launch any more attacks at the young man. The nearly collapsing armor on the young man's body transformed into a black mist, which then condensed into a short spear. With a mighty swing of his arm, he forced the three men back, and with another powerful swing, the spear shot straight towards Guo Yao.

  At such a close distance, the short spear flew extremely fast and in the blink of an eye it was already in front of Guo Yao. Chicken Leg's eyes were wide with fear, wanting to fly up and block this fatal blow for Guo Yao, but unfortunately it was too late. Just as Guo Yao was about to be pierced through the chest, a sense of unprecedented terror and despair tightly gripped Chicken Leg's heart!

  Guo Yi smiled coldly and opened his hands, crossing them over his chest, the gap between his hands was exactly where the black short spear had to pass through!

  Nalan Qing shook his head in his heart, he had fought with Guo Yi before and knew his strength, but he also knew the power of this black spear. Although Guo Yi's palm force was astonishing, it was impossible to hold back this black spear. As he watched Guo Yi about to die before his eyes, he felt a sense of confusion in his heart, not knowing whether he should be happy or worried, after all, his happiness for the second half of his life depended on this person!

  However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Guo Yi did not die. The moment the black spear approached his hands, it suddenly dispersed into a thick black mist that was quickly absorbed by his hands, leaving no trace behind.

  Not only were Nalan Qing and Chicken Thigh stunned, but even the short young man couldn't close his mouth. How was this possible?

  The short young man didn't believe in evil, he let out a loud roar and once again condensed into a short spear shooting towards Guo Yao. Guo Yao followed the law of alchemy and once again decomposed and absorbed the short spear.

  A young man of short stature stood still on the spot, since his debut he had never encountered such a thing. Not to mention Guo Yi's situation where he disassembled and absorbed the black short spear, even Xun Tian's situation where he used an invisible shield to block the short spear was something he had seen for the first time. Was it really as the old people in the country said - China has always been a place where dragons and tigers are hidden?

  Although Guo Yi appeared calm on the surface, he was actually overjoyed in his heart. He knew that he had finally won the gamble at the last moment - as soon as he approached this short man, he discovered that there was something familiar about him, but he couldn't think of what it was for a while, and this familiarity also brought with it a hint of strangeness, just like seeing someone's face and feeling like you've seen them before, yet having no impression of ever meeting them.

  It wasn't until the black short spear swooped down that he suddenly remembered, this feeling had occurred when he touched the strange bottle in Zhang Hongyan's study. He didn't have time to think much, his hands began to absorb the heat as usual, and the black short spear disappeared between his hands like ice entering a fierce fire. He could clearly feel the black energy spreading into his dantian along his arms.

  Although I don't know what use this black energy is, at least for now I can counterattack this little guy! Guo Yi let out a long whistle, his hands moved in unison, and he charged straight at the young man. The young man saw him easily break through the black short spear, his heart panicked, not daring to harden, his body swayed and was about to dodge, Nalan Qing and Jitui immediately welcomed him, blocking his retreat.

  The young man's eyes were sharp and he had already spotted that Jilegg was the weakest among the three. He avoided Nalanqing, and with a gust of wind, his fists directly struck at Jilegg's chest. Whether Jilegg chose to take it head-on or dodge, he would be able to break through!

  The corner of Jileg's mouth rose in a cold smile, but his eyes flashed with cruel light. He didn't dodge or weave, and with both hands following the original trajectory, he struck the young man's abdomen with a fatal blow. In terms of strength, Jileg was no match for the young man, so the injury he sustained would definitely be more severe than his opponent's. But what did that matter? As long as he didn't die, Guo Yao would have a way to treat him, while the other party wouldn't!

  The young man did not expect that this beautiful and unassuming girl would be a tough cookie, he didn't dare to fight hard, withdrew his fists, sealed the chicken leg's double palms, and slid out of the circle from the side of the chicken leg.

  Just then, Guo Yi arrived, his right palm slapping directly onto the young man's shoulder. The young man instinctively waved his hand to brush it away, and in the instant their hands touched, the young man felt a surge of heat and energy gushing out of his body like a waterfall. His body shook violently, almost causing him to fall over, but he managed to fling himself back upright, begging Guo Yi's palm to stop. However, Nalan Qing kicked him to the ground, and Guo Yi pounced on top of him, pressing both hands onto the young man's body and sucking fiercely. The poor young man was instantly frozen stiff.

  Black energy and heat surged into Guo Yao's dantian along the meridians, the refreshing feeling made Guo Yao involuntarily shiver, Nalan Qing felt a chill upon seeing this.

  Kuo Yi got up from the young man's body with a satisfied expression, gesturing to Jitui to tie him up. Conveniently, the rope used to bind Na Lanqing earlier was still available and could be put to use now.

  Guo Yi looked at Wen Tianhe and saw that his face had improved a bit, but he was still sitting on the ground, clearly not fully recovered from the exhaustion earlier. Guo Yi walked over and pressed his fingers against Wen Tianhe's temples for a few moments, and Wen Tianhe suddenly felt invigorated. He got up from the ground, waved his hand and said, "You guys go ahead, I'll take a nap first!"

  Guo Yi took a glance at Nalan Qing, hesitated for a moment, and then patted his injured shoulder with his hand. In an instant, Nalan Qing's wound was healed. Nalan Qing was now also unfazed by the strange occurrence, guessing that even if Guo Yi could grow another head for him, he wouldn't be surprised!

  "What's going on? Where did you summon this jinx from?"
