Along the way, the neon-lit city quickly became a backdrop, and the mountains, lakes, and tall trees all receded rapidly until they disappeared from view.

The hovercar streaked across the night sky like a streak of light. It had already traveled more than 300 miles in a short time since it departed from Jingyue City.

The scenery outside the car window quickly disappeared, and the shuttle-shaped car body was faster than Arrow Feather released from a bow. It was not very high off the ground, but it traveled across the sky.

Wang Xuan sat silently in the car. They were on the road to Kangning City, which would take them straight to the Sun family's stronghold!

Once they get there, there will be a bloody battle. The Sun family will not sit idly by and wait to die. A terrifying treasure will be revived, and they may even use warships to massacre the city and wash the land in blood after they have gone mad with bloodlust!

When it comes to a life-or-death situation, chaebols will never follow the Rules again.

He was thinking that he would most likely implement the second plan.

On the road, the young man driving was covered in sweat. He wasn't making any strenuous movements, but his clothes were soaked with sweat, indicating that he was extremely nervous.

He knew who was in the car; they were going to fight the Sun family single-handedly—they were a super conglomerate.

The young man driving turned his head slightly to look at Wang Xuan and found him to be calm and clear-eyed, looking at the scenery by the roadside.

He felt a slight tremor in his heart and couldn't help but admire the composure of someone who dared to confront the Sun family, facing the bloody battle that was destined to begin soon.

He was certain that if this got out, it would definitely cause a stir, and a single photo could go viral on major platforms.

Now, they are attacking the Sun family!

His body was trembling slightly. He was also a participant. Would there be a record of it many years later? Tonight, he sent a young man named Wang Xuan on a whirlwind journey of thousands of miles to fight a bloody battle against the Sun family.

In fact, the outside world is no longer at peace, and all forces are shocked.

The Sun family declared war, unwilling to let it end there. As a result, Wang Xuan responded with action that very evening: if they wanted to fight, they would fight to the death!

He sped through the night, charging alone towards the Ansun family's headquarters!

Despite being patrolled by warships and monitored by various detectors outside, he fearlessly left the city, moving the tycoons and attracting attention from all sides.

"Old Wang is too fierce. He dares to leave the city like this, and he wants to fight the Sun family's lair all by himself?" Zhong Cheng's palms were sweating. After hearing the news, he was stunned for a long time.

Upon hearing Zhou Yun, Zhou Yun shuddered and said, "Brother Wang is too reckless. He wants to fight the Sun family to the death. Will there be rivers of blood tonight? Most of the Sun family's warships will probably be taking off soon."

News travels fastest in the special circles of tycoons and powerful figures. They knew about it the moment Wang Xuan left the city, and they all gasped in shock.

"The sword immortal has left the city. The Sun family must be nervous now. If they can't find his whereabouts quickly, this night will be filled with anxiety."

Many of the young people showed anticipation; at this stage, they did not have the same wariness as the higher-ups, and they all still dreamed of becoming sword immortals.

A young and beautiful girl with sparkling eyes said, "So cool! The young sword immortal launched a night raid from a thousand miles away, beheading the leader of the Sun family with a single sword strike. I can almost hear the sound of the sword and see the peerless sword light!"

Soon, she was reprimanded by her elders, who sternly warned her that superhumans were extremely dangerous, especially for conglomerates, as they were a variable.

"What if one day, that young man flies over a thousand miles in the air on his sword and strikes our home?"

This vibrant and energetic young girl declared confidently, "That's why I want to cultivate immortality. I want to become his disciple and make him one of us!"

"It seems... that makes some sense." The middle-aged man pondered. Tycoons and superhumans don't necessarily have to be enemies. Family, friendship, love... there are all kinds of relationships between people. They can come into contact, get close, and be tied to each other's chariots.

Some of the older men in large institutions and top organizations now have mixed feelings. In their hearts, they were initially happy to see the superhumans clash with the Sun family and weaken the super conglomerate. However, they also absolutely did not want the superhumans to rise to power or become too powerful.

In particular, Wang Xuan's great battle Jingyue City, in which he flew through the air with his sword and beheaded Sun Rongting, deeply affected them!

If he can kill the core members of the Sun family today, then tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, he can launch a midnight attack and cut off their heads.

However, Wang Xuan then stated that he wanted to cultivate in a low-key manner, had no ambition, did not want to make enemies with any factions, and hoped to become Divine Doctor to Extend Life. This was something the group of old men simply could not refuse!

"Let's take it one step at a time. Let's see how it goes tonight. Whether he really wants to fight the Sun family to the death, he won't live long if he's too aggressive and dangerous."

Some people made plans and prepared to have someone contact Wang Xuan. In any case, it was important to make contact in the near future, as increasing the upper limit of lifespan was the most important thing.

At this moment, the top spots on the trending list are all related to last night's battles. Whether it's Wang Xuan's Flying Sword Soaring to the Sky or Old Chen's Battle of Mu City, they are all dominating the list.

"I'm making another prediction. Tonight there may be a sudden storm, with thunder shattering the darkness and blood raining down. Judging by the direction, it will head east towards the Sun family's stronghold— Kangning City."

Someone made a statement on a major platform, giving a heads-up.

Soon, someone noticed that this was the mysterious person who had given advance notice last night that there would be an epic battle in Jingyue City.

It takes real skill to make such a prediction. Most importantly, his words from last night came true.

So now that he has posted this, it has immediately caused a sensation, and people from all sides are in an uproar and are discussing it intensely.

"Great God, you've appeared again. Are you saying that the Sun family is in for a bloody disaster?"

"Wow, he really dares to speak like that! He wasn't even banned? Looks like something big is going to happen tonight. Is the young sword immortal going to have a decisive battle with the Sun family?!"

"Really? I'm really looking forward to it. The Sun family is all-powerful. Last time they actually bombarded Su City with warships. It was terrifying. My family lives near the scene, and we all trembled and couldn't sleep all night. Super conglomerates are lawless and do whatever they want. Let's see if the Sword Immortal can tear through the darkness tonight!"

Subsequently, even some insiders joined in the fun, and some news spread in the circles of financial magnates and large institutions, revealing that Wang Xuan was indeed on his way to Kangning City.

Zhou Yun posted a picture of Wang Xuan's back, standing in mid-air, gazing eastward at Kangning City.

Zhong Cheng immediately forwarded it.

Upon seeing the message, Sun Yichen's expression turned cold. He had been in a bad mood these past two days, and the Sun family had suffered heavy losses. After seeing their message, he directly contacted the two men by phone, speaking to them in a very unfriendly manner.

"That bastard actually insulted me!" Zhou Yun was furious. Zhong Cheng also looked displeased; Sun Yichen had actually warned and reprimanded him.

Upon seeing this, Zhong Qing personally posted a silhouette image of Wang Xuan, showing a flying sword tearing through the sky, heading east towards a hazy city.

"We're not afraid of the Sun family. If he doesn't speak kindly to us, won't you scold him instead?" Zhong Qing scolded her brother.

"Before I could even refute him, he hung up," Zhong Cheng said.

Sun Yichen felt a lump in his throat after seeing the picture, but he didn't want to confront Zhong Qing directly. She really wasn't afraid of him, and you could even say she wasn't afraid of the Sun family.

"Huh? The beautiful Zhong posted a message on the platform, and it's quite suggestive, directly revealing that the Sword Immortal is going to have a big battle with the Sun family tonight?"

"The girl with beautiful legs hasn't posted anything for a long time. This time, instead of showing off her sweet singing voice, she posted some big news."

Zhong Qing is very popular on the platform. Her post was widely reposted as soon as it was published, and many people have started to follow her.

It is said that a company once valued her pure and sweet image and wanted to sign her into the entertainment industry, package her, and promise to promote her, but she declined.

Later, some people learned about her background, and then no one looked for her anymore.

"Zhong Qing, you still deny it? You really want to be my teacher's wife, you even sent pictures yourself!" One of Zhong Qing's best friends called her directly and bombarded her with questions.

Under the night sky, the suspended flying car traversed the earth like a shooting star, heading eastward.

A bad sign appeared: the shadows of various small warships began to appear in the night sky, seemingly having spotted Wang Xuan's whereabouts and were patrolling, on high alert.

Thump!

Finally, some small warships opened fire, striking the ground with blinding beams of light, followed by plumes of smoke and dust.

"Don't be afraid, just veer slightly off course and keep going close to the forest," Wang Xuan reassured the young driver.

He knew exactly what the problem was. Along the way, he would encounter some detectors from time to time. Although he had torn himself apart in advance, it was precisely these monitoring devices along the way that malfunctioned from time to time, revealing his whereabouts.

On the New Star, from the sky to the ground, whether on the road or in the mountains, there are miniature detectors everywhere. The surveillance is practically everywhere. If you really want to investigate someone, there is no privacy whatsoever.

He took advantage of the time difference and kept changing his route along the way, so he traveled hundreds of miles without any incident.

Currently, the Sun family is mobilizing various surveillance systems and using accident curves from detectors to track his precise trajectory.

Wang Xuan sat in the car, looking up at the night sky through the sunroof. The stars accompanied the New Moon, it was supposed to be a gentle and peaceful night, but he had traveled thousands of miles to kill someone.

He pondered silently, realizing that it would be difficult to completely wipe out the Sun family at this stage!

Judging from the Sun family's current actions, they are bound to fight to the death. Without a doubt, a net must already be drawn Kangning City.

That night, the Sun family must have mobilized a large number of warships to guard various points leading to Kangning City. If anyone tried to break through, they would be met with the fiercest bombardment.

If Wang Xuan were to break into Kangning City, they would definitely go crazy and use warships to breach their main camp; these are clearly all options.

Furthermore, if he really wipes out the Sun family tonight, then he will most likely be in trouble himself.

That would alarm the major financial groups. They would feel that he was too much of a threat, and that someone might suddenly try to kill him, using warships to clean up the mess until he was completely wiped out.

The Sun family is not invincible, but they cannot be wiped out in one fell swoop. It needs to be done gradually, at least not tonight.

Next, if the Sun family still insists on fighting, then the two sides can confront each other, clash, and kill some of their important members.

In that case, other conglomerates would probably be happy to stand by and watch the super conglomerate Sun family suffer losses.

In the meantime, Wang Xuan just needs to quickly improve his cultivation level. Once he has accumulated enough power, everything will be much easier!

Time is on his side!

"Take Route Two!" Wang Xuan ordered, proceeding according to the pre-arranged plan. Tonight, he was poised to charge headlong into the Sun family's stronghold. If all went well, he wouldn't mind striking at their heart.

But now it seems that the Sun family has prepared various backup plans in their anxiety and has the worst-case scenario in mind. At this stage, he will not take any risks and does not want to pay a heavy price.

If he is seriously injured, some large organizations will pounce on him like sharks smelling blood.

The young driver let out a long breath. His heart had been pounding the whole way. Traveling alone to the Sun family's stronghold was a psychological pressure that most people couldn't withstand. He was in awe of this young man's strength and courage.

He looked back and saw that the young swordsman remained calm, which filled him with awe.

They are now less than 400 li away from Kangning City, where the Sun family is located. It's really not far. After deviating from their course, they are heading towards Pingyuan City, which is a dozen li away.

In the contingency plan, if the divine arrow cannot shoot down the sun and deliver a devastating blow to the Sun family, then Wang Xuan will come here to intimidate the Sun family at close range.

Pingyuan City was in sight, and it was only 370 li away from the Sun family's main base Kangning City. If he found an opportunity, he could run there from here.

When Old Chen received the news, he breathed a sigh of relief. This was for the best. He didn't want Wang Xuan to storm into the Sun family's house tonight, as the impact would be too great and everyone would be alarmed!

Then, the mysterious person made another announcement...

This night was incredibly agonizing for the Sun family. The young Supernatural Practitioner had somehow managed to evade surveillance, heading east with the intention of striking directly at Kangning City. His sharp edge and murderous aura kept them anxious all night.

If he manages to break into the city, are we left with no choice but to bombard it with warships?

However, this would be a lose-lose situation. Even if many of them could leave by spaceship, they wouldn't be able to take the things buried underground with them!

The Sun family's house itself is built on an ancient ruin.

In addition, during this special era, they acquired too many mysterious objects, some of which have recently revived and become unpredictable after being infused with X substance.

Since modern times, the tide of the extraordinary has receded, Immortal Lords' Cave Mansion have fallen from the void. The Sun family, with its formidable strength, naturally unearthed many divine artifacts.

Some things are now glowing all night long, surrounded by runes. Although they are protecting the Sun family, they cannot move them away.

These Secret Treasures would seriously affect the safety of spaceships and warships, and corrode precision components; no one in the Sun family could keep them.

At this moment, everyone in the Sun family was restless. Even some of the old men were uneasy, pacing back and forth, feeling a chill on their backs and regretting their actions.

The moderates within the Sun family spoke directly, suggesting that it would be better to temporarily reach a truce. If things escalated beyond repair, the Sun family would suffer severe damage and heavy losses. At that point, other conglomerates would inevitably step in and seize their territory and profits.

The Sun family may not fall, but after this battle, they will most likely be removed from the ranks of super conglomerates.

That evening, a dispute broke out in the Sun family. Some people became uneasy, feeling a chill to the bone. Many people were on edge, increasingly anxious.

Finally, some people couldn't hold out any longer and suggested that the Zhong family should step in and contact Wang Xuan to request a dialogue.

The mysterious figure prophesied once more. "Tonight, the immortal sword will be pointed at the Sun family, held back but not yet unleashed. If the younger generation goes mad, there will be a heaven-shattering strike, the sword light falling from the nine heavens and piercing through the Sun family's stronghold!"

At this time, Wang Xuan entered Pingyuan City, the stronghold of the super-rich Qin Family.

The Qin Family learned of it immediately.

Qin Hong was drinking when his hand trembled, spilling the wine and wetting his clothes. He exclaimed, "How did he get here? How dare he approach my Qin Family!"
