"Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art!?"

The Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art was extremely famous and widely spread.

Upon sensing the change in Baili Qingfeng's aura, Eddie's face paled instantly.

He only thought Baili Qingfeng was young and wanted to intimidate him, making him understand his power and influence. Then, he planned to use both carrots and sticks, reasoning with him to persuade Baili Changkong. At worst, he could trick him into joining their group to fight on the front lines. That way, for the sake of his precious grandson's safety, Baili Changkong wouldn't stand idly by. This would allow him to recruit General Melbourne's faction, using them as cannon fodder for his grand plan.

But he never expected that Baili Qingfeng, provoked by him, would directly use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, fighting with his life on the line!?

Desperate!

Given how much Baili Changkong valued this grandson, if Baili Qingfeng really died in his hands because of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, that old thing would definitely fight him to the death, destroying everything...

At that time, not only would his grand plan be ruined, but his own life would also be in danger!

"Young man, don't get excited, I was just joking..."

Eddie shouted hastily, his fist intent, which had been full of the atmosphere of war, retracted a bit.

However, Baili Qingfeng's Spirit Refinement Manifestation techniques were inherently superior to Eddie's not-yet-fully-condensed Fist Intent realm. Furthermore, at this moment, Eddie had the intention to retreat, and his energy retracted. His Fist Intent was shattered by the Ancient Thunder Beast formed by Baili Qingfeng's Spirit Refinement Manifestation. Immediately...

It was equivalent to him facing the intimidation of the Ancient Thunder Beast head-on.

"Rumble!"

Thunder rumbled in the sky!

Eddie, whose momentum was already weakened, was struck by lightning, his mind shaken violently. It was as if a snake was being attacked by an eagle, his whole body falling into immense fear, his spirit and will disconnecting from his body and becoming stiff.

"Spirit Refinement Manifestation!? It's actually Spirit Refinement Manifestation!? The Bai Li family, a true dragon has emerged!?"

Eddie's pupils dilated.

At this moment, he no longer cared whether killing Baili Qingfeng would trigger Baili Changkong's rage, leading to the destruction of his Stability Plan, because...

With even a trace of distraction...

He would die!

Die at the hands of this young man, who he didn't take seriously, but was actually only around twenty years old!

There was great terror between life and death!

Eddie was, after all, a person who had been on the battlefield. He had even experienced the chaotic era of the Xia Independence War. His temperament and will were tempered like steel. After being intimidated by Baili Qingfeng's Spirit Refinement Manifestation techniques for a moment, he let out a low roar and broke free from the intimidation, regaining consciousness.

"Kill!"

The retracted energy exploded completely.

It was like a longbow pulled back, only to shoot out at a more swift speed.

Unfortunately, the intimidation of the previous Spirit Refinement Manifestation had already caused Eddie to lose the initiative. Baili Qingfeng, carrying the power of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, had his energy and Qi and Blood breaking through the limits of the human body. Every move he made erupted with power like a prehistoric beast. As Eddie's energy penetrated his arm and blasted out, his fist was already like a sword drawn from its sheath, stabbing out first.

"Swoosh!"

The air surged and scattered.

The energy of the fist tore through the air, creating a piercing screech that made Eddie's brain buzz!

"His fist... is faster than mine!"

Eddie realized this instantly. It was too late to change his move. At the critical moment, his chest suddenly caved in. And at the instant his chest caved in, his arm that had been thrown out was actually stretched three inches longer, striking Baili Qingfeng's chest directly!

Eight Arms Swimming Dragon!

This was the secret technique Eddie had mastered, Eight Arms Swimming Dragon!

Relying on this secret technique to extend his arm by three inches out of thin air, his fist energy, which was originally a step slower than Baili Qingfeng's, had now arrived first. A moment before Baili Qingfeng's fist energy hit him, it would severely injure Baili Qingfeng first!

His expression became extremely fierce, and a terrifying, baleful aura swept out from his body: "So what if you're a True Dragon! Die!"

The brave wins when narrow roads meet!

Baili Qingfeng chose the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art to fight with his life, and Eddie was not inferior either. With fierce perseverance, he crippled one arm to activate the Eight Arms Swimming Dragon secret technique, launching a counterattack from a desperate situation!

"Hoo!"

The sudden change made Baili Qingfeng's eyes flash with a sharp light, and he took a deep breath.

In the next moment, the Qi and Blood power within his body, which had broken through the limits of the human body, surged violently, like a volcano that had been brewing to the extreme, erupting fiercely!

Speed...

Just a bit faster!

Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, fully released!

"I just want to be a quiet and well-behaved top student, why do you have to force me to kill!? Why!?"

Baili Qingfeng roared in a low voice, his momentum resolute, tragic, and indomitable!

The brave wins when narrow roads meet!?

Comparing bravery!? Comparing ruthlessness!?

Who's afraid of who!

"Bang!"

The two's fist energies collided almost simultaneously in an instant!

Although Eddie's fist energy was powerful, it was ultimately achieved by forcibly extending his arm by three inches with the Eight Arms Swimming Dragon secret technique. In addition, his previous fist force had been defeated by Baili Qingfeng's Spirit Refinement Manifestation of the Primordial Thunder Beast. When it landed on Baili Qingfeng, it made Baili Qingfeng's body shake, and his ribs broke on the spot.

However, the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art allowed his Qi and Blood to be stimulated to the extreme, and it also weakened the energy to a considerable extent. Although Baili Qingfeng's ribs were broken, and his body retreated six steps under the impact of this penetrating force, the energy unloaded by his feet shattered the floor into pieces...

But...

That was all!

But Eddie...

Facing Baili Qingfeng's fist, which had erupted to the extreme with the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, he was like being hit by a mortar shell!

The moment the fist energy erupted on his chest, the clothes on his chest shattered on the spot. The violent and overbearing power collapsed his entire chest, broke his ribs, and shattered the internal organs protected by the ribs...

"Bang!"

Eddie's robust eighty-kilogram body flew backward under the impact of this terrifying force, blood spurting wildly from his mouth while still in the air.

After flying ten meters, he crashed heavily into a wall, instantly causing spiderweb-like cracks to spread across it, with a large amount of gravel and dust falling down.

One strike...

Decides life and death!

"You..."

Eddie's eyes widened, his pupils blood-red as his internal organs were shattered, preventing blood from circulating and causing it to rush upwards.

"Huff!"

Baili Qingfeng exhaled a long breath.

He looked at Eddie, his eyes filled with a chilling light: "You just needed to do your job, why involve my family and try to slaughter my entire household!? What kind of vicious person are you to do such a deranged thing!? If you want to kill me, I will kill you! If you want to exterminate my family, I will kill your entire family! You have a son, Et? Like father, like son! With your viciousness, the son you raised must also be full of evil. When he learns that I killed you, he will definitely not let it go! For the safety of my family, I will send him on his way in a moment to accompany you!"

"No... you..."

Eddie's eyes widened suddenly, struggling, wanting to say something, but opening his mouth seemed to release the last breath that was keeping him going.

"Pfft!"

Accompanied by a mouthful of blood, the words Eddie wanted to say next...

He couldn't say them after all.

He just stared at Baili Qingfeng with wide, unclosed eyes...

His breath ceased, and he died.
