Watching Wang Pan trapped in a tight encirclement, Nan Fei and several Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors were preparing to charge into the crowd and create an opening for Wang Pan to escape.
Unexpectedly, a voice suddenly rang in their ears, causing those who had been ready to act to stop at once.
"You heard it too?"
Nan Fei asked the others uncertainly.
The Thousand-Man Generals nodded, indicating that they had heard it as well.
"Great. Since the Transmission Elder is here, we don't need to worry anymore."
Nan Fei quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The other side had overwhelming numbers; it was better not to fight if they could avoid it.
The Thousand-Man Generals thought the same. Though they came from a sect and were far stronger than ordinary Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors, two fists could not beat four hands.
Just as the Thousand-Man Generals were thinking this, Wang Pan taught them a lesson, showing them what overwhelming strength truly meant!
"Good!"
Wang Pan charged left and right through the crowd, every punch and kick carrying tremendous force!
A Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior crossed his arms before him to block, only to be kicked flying by Wang Pan. His arms twisted grotesquely, with white bone fragments faintly protruding.
However, Wang Pan did not have it easy either. There were always attacks he could not guard against.
"Mountain Splitting Palm!"
A Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior at Great Completion seized the opportunity and struck Wang Pan in the back with a palm, sending him flying!
This Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior was no fool. Naturally, he had not shouted the name of his move before attacking.
He only called out the move after hitting Wang Pan, as though showing off to the others that he had landed a blow on him.
Suspended in midair with nowhere to brace himself, the others would not let such a fine opportunity pass.
A Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior wielding a broadsword grinned viciously. Raising his blade, he slashed fiercely at Wang Pan as he flew toward him!
Wang Pan's foundation far exceeded that of ordinary people, and normal blades could hardly harm him. But how could the weapons wielded by Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors be ordinary?
He would not die. His skin training, body strengthening, and tendon changing all surpassed ordinary people's. With those three layers of protection, Wang Pan was confident that he would at most be seriously injured, never split in two!
Of course, that was assuming the blow avoided vital areas such as his head and neck.
A needle-like pain pricked the skin around Wang Pan's waist and abdomen. He knew that the other man's blade was aimed precisely there.
Wang Pan's heart pounded violently, yet he became even calmer!
His body twisted, supple as a serpent, and he wrapped himself directly along the length of the blade.
His hands curled into eagle claws as they swept past the man's neck and ripped viciously!
A jet of blood sprayed out, drenching Wang Pan from head to toe.
Wang Pan landed and pounced like a tiger hunting prey, knocking a Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior who was still stunned to the ground!
Crack!
The sound of shattering bones rang out as Wang Pan smashed the man's face with his elbow.
The instant he hit the ground, that Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior was already dead.
"That's Wang Ji's son, isn't it?"
"He's only twelve! It's fortunate that this boy exposed himself. Otherwise, if we let him grow for a few more years, wouldn't he be able to wipe out the Zhang Family alone?"
"Send our people in!"
"No matter what, we absolutely cannot let him escape!"
Zhang Tang had been happily watching the many families fight Wang Pan to the death, but after witnessing Wang Pan's strength and recalling his age, he could no longer sit still!
"As ordered!"
The Zhang Family members were also alarmed and immediately joined the fight!
Among them, three Blood Exchange Realm warriors did not reveal themselves at once. Instead, they mingled among the Zhang Family members and gradually closed in on Wang Pan.
"Should I act now?"
Qin Yan's face was full of conflict. He understood Wang Pan's strength very well.
When Wang Pan had first entered the Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage, Qin Yan had needed to use the strength of Blood Changing Great Completion to suppress him.
Now that Wang Pan had reached Great Completion in the Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage, he was undoubtedly even stronger!
However, Wang Pan had lived a pampered life and rarely had chances to fight. His practical combat ability was weak, and he had not truly brought out all of his strength.
Now that he had finally encountered a life-or-death battle and an opportunity for real combat, Qin Yan had not stepped in immediately.
Not only had he not acted himself, he had also transmitted his voice directly into the ears of Nan Fei and the others, stopping them from going forward to help.
Qin Yan could also see that as time passed, Wang Pan might have been surrounded by danger, but he was not actually in serious trouble.
Instead, Wang Pan's strength was rapidly improving under the pressure of so many Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors!
Now the Zhang Family's three Blood Exchange Realm warriors had made their move as well. From the looks of it, they intended to ambush Wang Pan with the strength of the Blood Exchange Realm.
Qin Yan was confident that Wang Pan would be fine under his watch, but if Wang Pan was injured too badly, how was he supposed to explain it to Wang Ji afterward?
Wang Ji treasured his son beyond measure.
If Wang Ji became enraged, Qin Yan feared he would not even be able to enter the Hundred Fragrances Pavilion anymore.
The Hundred Fragrances Pavilion was Wang family property. If the Wang family head had personally ordered that he not be received, who would dare let him in? It was not as if he could force his way in like a tyrant.
Ah, this was miserable!
As he thought of this, Qin Yan's expression darkened. Being unable to visit the Hundred Fragrances Pavilion was practically a death sentence!
"Young Master, forgive me. It's not that I don't want to let you play a little longer. It's just that your words don't carry as much weight as Master's."
Qin Yan brightened up and vanished in an instant, a saber in hand.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Yan had crossed a hundred meters of the long street and appeared in the middle of the battlefield!
He swung his saber three times, and three heads hit the ground.
The Zhang Family members were dumbfounded!
The three who had died were all Blood Exchange Realm warriors of the Zhang Family!
Those three had hidden themselves for many years. Until their deaths, they never had the chance to display their strength. It was an utterly stifling end!
Those three strikes also awakened the bloodshot-eyed crowd. Terror spread across their faces as they retreated!
It had been too fast. They had only seen a figure flash before their eyes, and three people had died!
The Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors were grateful that the saber had not fallen upon their own necks. Otherwise, they would be the ones lying dead now!
"Uncle Qin, why did you come back?"
Wang Pan was covered in blood, looking somewhat surprised.
"Young Master, don't ask me. Ask Master. I don't understand all these twists and turns. I only know how to chop people."
Leaning on his saber, Qin Yan answered lazily.
"But Uncle Qin, you killed my sparring partners. Who am I supposed to train with now?"
Wang Pan was somewhat depressed. He had secretly been delighted when he sensed those three Blood Exchange Realm warriors.
He had originally intended to catch them off guard with a counterattack and see the stunned looks on their faces. Instead, Qin Yan had cut them down in just a few strokes.
"But Master told me to come watch over you. If you were injured too badly, Young Master, I wouldn't be able to answer to Master."
Qin Yan muttered, lacking confidence.
In the end, he was simply afraid of being unable to visit brothels, which was why he sounded so guilty.
Whoosh!
A streak of Saber Qi burst forth, flying dozens of meters in an instant and cutting a Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior in half at the waist. Blood poured like a waterfall, staining the long street red.
"You still want to run in front of me?"
Qin Yan was full of contempt.
The Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warriors, normally so lofty and untouchable, now huddled together like chicks for warmth.
Qin Yan was simply too terrifying. With one swing of his saber, Saber Qi had bloomed and killed a Muscle and Tendon Changing Stage warrior at Great Completion from dozens of meters away. Who would not be afraid?
"Uncle Qin, what was that? Can I learn it?"
"And Uncle Qin, aren't you at Blood Exchange Realm Great Completion? Can the Blood Exchange Realm really be this strong?!"
Wang Pan's heart stirred. This method of releasing Saber Qi with a swing of the blade was far cooler than hammering people with his fists, wasn't it?
