"Big Brother, this is a good opportunity!"

Liu Chengfeng looked at Fang Hong, whose left hand had been twisted into a corkscrew, his breath weak and chaotic.

The shock and fear in his eyes gradually turned into intense greed.

"Don't let your emotions cloud your judgment."

Unlike Liu Chengfeng's greed, Liu Chengyun's expression was extremely grave as he spoke in a low voice.

After all, as the head of the Liu Family, his temperament was indeed stronger than Liu Chengfeng's.

Faced with the heavily injured Fang Hong, Liu Chengfeng saw enormous gains.

But Liu Chengyun saw an enormous crisis.

Liu Chengyun said rationally, "Mr. Wu was a supreme expert at Marrow Refinement Major Success, yet Fang Hong killed him in such a short time."

"Even if he is badly injured now, we cannot let down our guard in the slightest!"

"You must know, a beast on the verge of death is only more dangerous than usual."

"Big Brother, I understand all that."

"But we tried to ambush and kill him this time. We have already formed an irreconcilable blood feud with him."

"Though he killed Mr. Wu, he is badly injured as well. This is our best chance to kill him and eliminate future trouble!"

"If we miss this chance and he recovers, who in our Liu Family will be able to stop him then?"

"I'm afraid that will be the end of our Liu Family!"

Liu Chengfeng's eyes were filled with greed. "What's more, he has Water Origin Spirit Liquid!"

"Even Mr. Wu, a disciple of the Crimson Spirit Sect, coveted that treasure."

"With his Water Origin Spirit Liquid, and by seizing the Water Spirit Ganoderma from the three powers in Fenshui Town..."

"Perhaps your strength can advance another step."

"It may even be possible for you to enter the Marrow Refinement realm!"

Hearing Liu Chengfeng's words, a flicker of temptation appeared in Liu Chengyun's eyes as well.

That was the Marrow Refinement realm!

Under normal circumstances, he would almost certainly never step into the Marrow Refinement realm in his lifetime.

But now, as long as he killed Fang Hong and took the Water Origin Spirit Liquid in his possession...

As for the Zhou Family and the others in Fenshui Town, they were no match for the Liu Family at all.

With the Water Origin Spirit Liquid and the Water Spirit Ganoderma held by those three powers...

Entering the Marrow Refinement realm would no longer be impossible!

This might be the only opportunity he would ever have in his life.

Was he really going to give up such an opportunity?

The distance between both sides was neither close nor far.

After hearing their exchange, the ferocious expression on Fang Hong's face seemed to undergo a change.

"Family Head Liu, there is actually no need for us to fight to the death."

Fang Hong looked at the Liu brothers. "In the end, although you tried to ambush and kill me, you never truly injured me."

"Though I am badly wounded now, if I truly wanted to kill you, it would not be too difficult."

"It's just that doing so would further worsen my injuries."

"Besides, killing you would bring me no benefit."

"There is no need for us to fight to the death."

"Isn't it just Water Origin Spirit Liquid? It is indeed precious, and I do indeed need it."

"But as long as you agree to leave me a portion, I can give you all the rest of the spirit liquid."

Fang Hong spoke in a calm tone, as though he were "negotiating."

At his words, Liu Chengfeng's face was full of temptation, while Liu Chengyun frowned.

"Mr. Fang, we sent people to investigate you in Fenshui Town. Judging from your dealings with those three families, you do not seem like someone willing to bend and endure humiliation... Oh no!!"

As he said this, Liu Chengyun's expression suddenly changed drastically.

"He is taking the chance to recover from his injuries!"

Seeing this, Fang Hong burst into laughter, his expression turning savage once more.

"I was waiting for my blood and qi to settle. What were you waiting for?"

"Were you waiting to die?!"

Boom! With a great laugh, Fang Hong charged in to kill.

"Kill him!!"

Liu Chengyun shouted in terror!

With a clear ring, Liu Chengyun drew the longsword at his waist and slashed out.

Liu Chengfeng threw a punch as well.

Afterimages flickered. Amid thunderous booms, Fang Hong abruptly appeared before the two of them.

His right shoulder shook, and he directly used his broken left hand as a long whip, lashing it out.

With a clang, his flung left hand sent the incoming longsword flying.

Wu Dongliang, who was nearing perfection in Marrow Refinement Major Success, had been able to injure Fang Hong.

But that did not mean Liu Chengyun, whose strength was inferior to Fang Hong's and who had only reached Bone Refinement Minor Success, could injure him.

Even though the longsword in his hand could already be called a treasured sword...

When it struck Fang Hong's muscles, scales, and skin—tough as old cowhide and hard as steel...

It merely left behind a white mark before being knocked away.

Fang Hong's other hand shot out in an instant, grabbing Liu Chengfeng's incoming fist.

Then, under their horrified and terrified gazes, Fang Hong gave a savage grin.

The five fingers gripping Liu Chengfeng's fist tightened, and his right hand suddenly swung.

Liu Chengfeng's entire body was then lifted by Fang Hong and viciously smashed into Liu Chengyun.

Pfft! Pfft!

The incomparably violent collision made them both spew great mouthfuls of blood.

The bones throughout their bodies cracked in unison.

Especially Liu Chengfeng, whose strength was weaker.

That single smash left him at death's door, his breath as thin as a thread.

"That fellow from the Crimson Spirit Sect was one thing, since he was an expert at Marrow Refinement Major Success!"

Fang Hong grinned savagely. "But you two, with strength as flimsy as weak-legged shrimp..."

"You wanted to kill me?!"

"M-Mr. Fang, spare my life, spare..."

Seeing Fang Hong's savage smile, Liu Chengyun begged in abject terror.

But before he could finish speaking, Fang Hong had already raised his foot and stomped down.

Smack! Liu Chengyun's head burst beneath Fang Hong's foot like a huge watermelon.

Blood and brain matter splattered everywhere.

His unfinished plea naturally came to an abrupt end.

Fang Hong then delivered another kick, crushing the head of the barely alive Liu Chengfeng.

Only after thoroughly killing these three enemies did Fang Hong finally let out a long breath.

If they had attacked to kill him the moment they appeared, he might truly have been in some danger.

At that time, he had just used his killing move to kill that Crimson Spirit Sect disciple.

His old strength had been exhausted, new strength had yet to arise, and his blood and qi were in an extremely violent state of disorder.

Fortunately, they had all been stunned by what they saw and had not dared attack immediately.

That gave him time to settle his blood and qi.

Looking at the three corpses, Fang Hong exhaled and gradually returned to his usual form.

Then, dragging his injured body, he began searching the corpses.

While searching the corpse of that Crimson Spirit Sect disciple, he casually stepped on his head and crushed it.

Emmm... just in case!

After searching the corpses, he retrieved his luggage and headed toward the riverbank.

His injuries this time were somewhat serious. During the half month before reaching the Star River Sect, he would probably have to spend the entire journey recuperating.
