Judging from Fan Ling's lewd expression and the words he uttered, he was basically already a dead man.

It's all Fan Ling's bad luck's fault.

The main reason is that the team's route leads to Dusk City, Fan Ling, the arrogant young sect leader of the Blood Sect, is the perfect target to "send" him away.

Moreover, Yang Shan knew Fan Ling Fan Ling's stats from their last encounter.

If we can manage to kill Fan Ling, Fan Ling loot list might contain the Blood Sect's most powerful cultivation technique:

The Blood Devouring Scripture! This is Earth Rank Low-Level Technique with Purple Word Seal!

In this version where everyone is striving for Xuan-rank cultivation techniques, take this thing to the Auction House.

Those super-rich players must quickly sell one or two villas and then join the bidding with bloodshot eyes, right? Yang Shan isn't a picky eater; he can eat both meat and vegetables.

But we can't afford to lose out! Were those 200,000 Spirit Stone just wasted?

Xiao Xun'er's favorability, half a piece of the Ghoul Lord Token, and Fan Ling's kill.

One fish, three ways— Yang Shan wants it all! Xiao Xun'er's faint smile vanished.

She was polite to everyone, but if someone was rude to her, that was a death sentence for her!

However, Xiao Xun'er is currently only Four-Star Dou Ling, just like Yang Shan.

At least that's how it appears "on the surface".

Fan Ling, the lecherous old man who came specifically to rob women, brought more than fifty people with him to prevent any from escaping from the academy team.

At the very least, they were all Da Dou Shi, and the highest level even reached the Eight Star Dou Ling! Not only that, there was also the seemingly insignificant old man behind Fan Ling.

He's a Dou Wang!

Yang Shan couldn't help but applaud Fan Ling.

Excellent! As expected of the young sect leader of the Blood Sect, he is indeed prudent in his actions. He even invited all the sect elders to come and snatch a beauty! Now Yang Shan no longer needs to worry about Fan Ling's side lacking combat strength.

If only a few Dou Ling came, they probably wouldn't last more than a few rounds against Xiao Xun'er! Yang Shan drew his Thunderbolt Blade and stood in front of the crowd. "Run! I'll hold them off here!"

Xiao Xun'er: "They're probably here for me."

Yang Shan smiled wryly, "Don't be silly, senior. What happens if you offend Jia Nan Academy? They don't intend to leave anyone alive."

Without giving Xiao Xun'er a chance to speak further, Yang Shan said:

"Take them and get out of here! I have a trump card; we should have a chance to escape. You have to live, or who am I going to get my things from?"

Xiao Xun'er: "Okay, I understand."

Xiao Xun'er immediately led the other students away.

Yang Shan: "."

No!

Is he really that straightforward?

Yang Shan thought Xiao Xun'er would try to pull him away and then stay to fight the enemy together.

After all, the other party was clearly targeting her!

"Xun'er, there's Dou Wang on the other side! Are you really going to leave me here alone? Don't you have any conscience?"

Xiao Xun'er had no idea what Yang Shan was thinking; she was just protecting the others and getting them away as quickly as possible.

Mei Yangyang kept running back and calling out:

"Great God Yang, Great God Yang! I'll be cheering you on silently in my heart. You're Yang One-Blade! Invincible Yang One-Blade, kill them!"

What the hell is Yang One-Blade?!

Yang Shan's expression was as if he had eaten shit.

Things took an unexpected turn.

But he had already put on a show, and he did it in front of Xiao Xun'er.

For the sake of the Ghoul Lord Token, Yang Shan had to put on a good show! He probably wouldn't be able to keep the precious Grade 5 Wind Walk Pill in his hand.

Before Yang Shan came to the Black-Corner Region, she spent a lot of money to ask Ya Fei to get this for her.

Although it's just a basic consumable pill.

But after all, it's only a fifth-rank official!

In the entire Jia Ma Empire, there are no more than five NPCs who can refine this Grade 5 Wind Walk Pill!

It contains Wind Walk Pill and Thunder Spirit Flash.

Then use the "Thunder Guiding Lock" to restrict that Blood Sect's Dou Wang Elder and buy some time.

After escaping to a certain distance, swallow Fourth Grade Aura Concealing Pill, hide well, and the chance of escaping is still quite high.

After all, Fan Ling's main target was not him, but Xiao Xun'er.

Fan Ling shouted, "Trying to run? Stop them!"

The young sect leader still needs to maintain a certain air.

Fan Ling sat on the wolf's back without making a move.

The Blood Sect elders, naturally, would not make a move.

This greatly reduced Yang Shan's pressure.

Want to chase after Xiao Xun'er? Yang Shan unleashed a burst of purple lightning in his left hand and azure flame in his right, triggering Overload and creating a deafening explosion! "If anyone's going to go, it should be Fan Ling and that Dou Wang chasing after her. You think you're worthy?"

Yang Shan was eager for Fan Ling and that Dou Wang elder to treat him like he was invisible, so he quickly went to chase after Xiao Xun'er.

He might die, Xiao Xun'er absolutely cannot die! That Dou Wang looks like he's about to die.

As long as that Dou Wang poses even the slightest threat to Xiao Xun'er.

The Dou Emperor Ling Ying, who had been secretly protecting Xiao Xun'er, would immediately make his move! Eight Star Dou Huang, even if Yun Yun Misty Cloud Sect Master Yunlan Sect, came, she would be slapped into the ground! The increase in Soul Strength made Yang Shan more adept at controlling beast lightning and Beast Flame.

The damage triggered by that explosion was 2.5 times the combined damage of Beast Lightning and Beast Flame attacks! That's even considering the level suppression of the Dou Ling against the Da Dou Shi.

With this one move, Yang Shan broke through the Dou Qi Armor of more than a dozen Da Dou Shi!

However, the blast radius of the Overload was not enough to encompass all fifty-odd people.

Yang Shan continued to urge the Ape King Violet Lightning and the Azure Jade Python Flame, triggering Overload twice in succession, before finally stopping the advance of the more than fifty pursuers.

Yang Shan had already made up his mind.

Just delay for three minutes.

He made his escape three minutes later! After he left, Yang Shan would definitely go to the Jia Nan Academy after a while! And before he got to the Jia Nan Academy, Yang Shan would seriously injure himself and limp from Peace Town to the Jia Nan Academy.

When the time comes, Xiao Xun'er will owe him a favor.

After all, the other party was after her! Fan Ling looked at the explosion created by Yang Shan and smiled disdainfully, "Oh, a student from the Jia Nan Academy, you really do have some skills."

The power of the Overload is limited by the beast thunder and Beast Flame, so the damage is not too difficult for Fan Ling to handle.

Last time, Yang Shan concealed his face and wore a loose black robe.

This time, she revealed her true appearance, and she was wearing a bright red Fire Cloud Robe.

At most, I am somewhat familiar with the Ape King Violet Lightning.

But Yang Shan then used the Azure Jade Python Flame.

It's not easy to directly link the two.

Fan Ling: "It seems that the one who stayed behind is the strongest in this team. Elder, you stay and hold the line, I'll Young Master up and have some fun!"

Dou Wang nodded. "It has been a long time since I have seen the young sect leader's brilliance!"

"Hey-hey!"

Fan Ling leaped from the wolf's back, gathering Blood Attribute Dou Qi in his palm.

Yang Shan intercepted with his knife.

Fan Ling is still at the Dou Ling Peak, and his stats have not yet advanced to the gold level.

In terms of pure attack power, Yang Shan, with the Thunderbolt Blade, has also exceeded 600 points, not much worse Fan Ling! However, the first level of the Tyrant Blade's blade aura is clearly inferior to the Palm Force activated by Fan Ling.

The blade and palm collided, triggering a parry, and Yang Shan's health dropped by 322 points.

Although he suffered a minor loss, once Yang Shan's sword aura reached the fourth level, Fan Ling would be the one to suffer! Fan Ling did not activate his Dou Qi Armor.

Because Fan Ling didn't believe that a Four-Star Dou Ling could be his opponent.

Yang Shan did not activate his Dou Qi Armor.

Yang Shan didn't believe that Fan Ling, with his mere 150 speed, could hit him.

The Thunderbolt Blade, the Fire Cloud Robe, and the Wind Hunting Boots alone add a full 100 points to speed.

Yang Shan's speed rating even exceeded 300 points! In order to catch his opponent off guard during the subsequent escape, Yang Shan deliberately slowed down.

It's not just that he chooses to use the Thunderbolt Blade to fight head-on when there are many opportunities to dodge.

On several other occasions, Yang Shan pretended that he was almost hit by Fan Ling.

On the surface, Yang Shan seems to have been clearly suppressed by Fan Ling.

This continued until the blade's momentum reached the fourth layer.

Yang Shan's swordsmanship and lethality began to surpass Fan Ling's.

But Yang Shan acted as if he was giving it his all, even clenching his teeth as he swung his sword.

He was afraid Fan Ling would realize he was holding back! Although Fan Ling was forced back by Yang Shan's Thunderbolt Blade, the disdain on his face did not disappear.

"Boy, with your strength, you wouldn't be considered mediocre even in the Inner Courtyard of the Jia Nan Academy. I didn't expect you to actually offend an Inner Courtyard disciple, so this Young Master can't let you off the hook!"

If it were truly a life-or-death battle, Yang Shan would definitely have a cold face and remain silent at this moment.

But if you're going to act, you have to say something to set the mood.

"Dare to touch our Jia Nan Academy students? It seems the Blood Sect has forgotten that there are still the corpses of a Dou Emperor and two Dou Wang hanging on the Dead Spirit Tree in Peace Town!"

Fan Ling's face twisted in a grimace:

"Pah! Don't try to intimidate Young Master with the Jia Nan Academy. If I can't kill Liu Qing, I'll surely kill you, you little Young Master from the Inner Courtyard!"

Liu Qing!

The top three in the Inner Courtyard Strong Ranking.

They were both experts at the Dou Ling Peak level.

It seems that something unpleasant happened between these two in the game.

It seems that Fan Ling was beaten up by Liu Qing.

It seems that Yang Shan has angered Fan Ling.

Fan Ling's offensive became a level more aggressive.

But Yang Shan's attack was three levels more ferocious! After all, he had previously stacked four layers of sword intent.

It's the seventh floor now.

Fan Ling began to be completely bewildered.

Although he did not use any powerful Dou Technique.

However, there were one Yellow Tier Dou Technique that consumed relatively little energy, one after another.

Yang Shan not only withstood the attack, but in several clashes, it was Fan Ling who suffered the most!

"What the hell is that swordsmanship?"

"The swordsmanship that will kill you!"

Yang Shan deflected Fan Ling's attacking bloody palm, gripped the hilt of the knife with both hands, and attempted to split Fan Ling in two with a powerful "Mountain Splitting Chop" strike.

Under normal circumstances, Yang Shan would never use such a stupid fighting style.

Both are seven-level sword stances. Although the "Mountain Splitting Chop with both hands holding the sword will have a certain attack boost, it also means that Yang Shan's abdomen is wide open.

It is easy for the opponent to find a weakness.

Fan Ling's sinister grin widened.

If he doesn't seize this weakness, then he is unworthy of being the young sect master of the Blood Sect!

The crimson Dou Qi slammed into Yang Shan's abdomen.

Yang Shan didn't even have time to activate his Dou Qi Armor!

Actually, if they were in a different location, it would be a one-on-one fight.

Yang Shan is probably about to beat Fan Ling to a pulp!

What Mountain Splitting Chop, what inability to activate Dou Qi Armor in time.

That was all because Yang Shan sensed that special Dou Qi fluctuation.

Xiao Xun'er is back!

This is a perfect opportunity to use a self-inflicted injury to sell blood! Fan Ling didn't hold back with this palm strike.

Yang Shan's health points were reduced by nearly two thousand, and he was sent flying backward.

A gentle force supported Yang Shan, allowing Yang Shan to maintain his balance and prevent him from falling directly to the ground.

Looking at Xiao Xun'er not far away, Yang Shan seemed somewhat reproachful:

"Senior? What brings you back?"

"You don't like owing favors."

Xiao Xun'er smiled slightly at Yang Shan: "I don't like it either."

Kind people are mostly responsible.

Xiao Xun'er couldn't possibly watch Yang Shan die here because of her.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for receiving Xiao Xun'er's praise. Xiao Xun'er's favorability +1, current favorability: 2.]
