A fierce battle

Xiao Yu's expression also darkened as he said, "The people of the Soul Hall are colluding with the people of your Heavenly Snake Mansion. I think you, as the Mansion Lord of the Heavenly Snake Mansion, are aware of this, aren't you?"

Lin Qingge's expression changed slightly, and she immediately said, "I don't know what you're talking about, but my Heavenly Snake Mansion absolutely has no connection with the Soul Hall!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a whooshing sound rang out. Everyone looked over and saw a figure rapidly approaching from afar. Once the figure became clearer, Lin Qingge coldly demanded, "Where did you go?"

The newcomer was none other than Lin Guannan. When Xiao Yu saw Lin Guannan, his eyes narrowed slightly. Lin Guannan's aura was completely undisguised, and even Lin Qingge was startled by it—the aura of Dou Zun!

Xiao Yu looked at the newcomer and chuckled, "It seems that Young Master Lin has really put in a lot of effort in his cultivation these past few days, breaking through to the Dou Zun realm so quickly!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions, surprised that Lin Guannan's strength had improved so quickly. However, compared to Yun Yun and the others, it was nothing special, considering that there was also Xiao Yu, who was even more monstrous than Lin Guannan, present!

When Lin Guannan looked at Xiao Yu, he sneered, "Of course. If I hadn't worked hard to cultivate, how could I have trampled you under my feet!"

Immediately, the women behind Xiao Yu all looked at Lin Guannan with icy expressions, and their powerful auras also subtly burst forth, causing Lin Guannan's face to turn ferocious. He was extremely jealous and angry, jealous that Xiao Yu had so many people protecting him at this moment!

Xiao Yu glanced at Lin Qingge and said, "Now I know you were also kept in the dark. It seems Young Master Lin has kept everyone in the dark!"

Lin Guannan looked at Xiao Yu and said, "What are you talking about?"

Xiao Yu chuckled, "What? You dare to do it but not admit it? I can sense the same chilling aura emanating from your body as the Soul Hall. You must have a close connection with that elder of the Soul Hall, right?"

"Hehe, since you've already found out, then I won't hide it anymore. Yes, I do have contact with a protector of the Soul Hall, but what does that have to do with you? You're nothing but a fart, how dare you interfere in my affairs!" Since Lin Guannan started cultivating this insidious technique, his temper has become increasingly volatile, perhaps due to the incompatible Dou Qi within his body.

Xiao Yu laughed, but his laughter carried a hint of contempt and ruthlessness as he said, "I don't want to get involved in your mess, but if you ever get involved with the Soul Hall, even if you're the King of Heaven himself, you'll die!"

Boom!

The terrifying and powerful aura within Xiao Yu suddenly erupted, causing the disciples of the Heavenly Snake Mansion to change color in horror and uncontrollably retreat. Xiao Yu's aura was too oppressive, making them feel suffocated!

Lin Qingge and her son Lin Guannan, who were standing in front of Xiao Yu, were not in much better shape. Lin Guannan had only just stepped into the One-star Dou Zun, and Lin Qingge was only Two-Star Dou Zun. Although Xiao Yu was also Two-Star Dou Zun, in terms of overall strength, the two of them were not as good as Xiao Yu.

Lin Guannan stared blankly at Xiao Yu, feeling the suffocating aura emanating from him. Lin Guannan then screamed frantically, "This is impossible! How could you possibly reach the Dou Zun? How could you be stronger than me!"

Lin Qingge felt sorry for her child. She knew that Lin Guannan and the Soul Hall must have made a deal, but what Lin Qingge couldn't understand was how Xiao Yu's strength had increased so rapidly.

Lin Guannan's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Xiao Yu with a sinister look. His Dou Qi surged, and a dark spear appeared in his hand. Then, Lin Guannan wielded the spear and charged towards Xiao Yu.

Call!

The sound of the spear cutting through the air as it was swung was heard. As Lin Guannan moved, the spear transformed into a sky full of spear shadows, stabbing towards Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu stomped his foot hard on the ground and charged towards Lin Guannan!

Boom!

The two collided violently in mid-air, and a deafening explosion resounded through the air. The two figures became entangled in mid-air. Lin Qingge looked at Lin Guannan, who was fighting with Xiao Yu, and finally gritted her teeth and rushed over. The icy aura in her body lowered the surrounding temperature considerably.

Standing beside Yun Yun, Qing Lin's face showed a look of struggle and hesitation. However, when she saw Lin Qingge help Lin Guannan fly towards Xiao Yu without hesitation, she also made up her mind. She clenched her fist lightly, and the green light of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils in her eyes flashed slightly. Then she saw the figure of a large snake appear in her eyes.

"Ancient Teng Snake!"

Roar!

A roar carrying a wild and untamed aura came from in front of Qing Lin, and even Cai Lin's delicate body trembled slightly. That aura was too much of a suppression of the Seven-Colored Heavenly Python's aura.

A gigantic winged serpent appeared before everyone's eyes. This was the soul of the Ancient Teng Snake attached to Qing Lin, possessing the strength of Eight-Star Dou Zong. This was before Qing Lin had fully controlled it. If he could absorb and control it completely, Qing Lin's strength would definitely reach the Dou Zun realm!

Then, Yun Yun and Xiao Yi Xian's palms also erupted with pale green and black Dou Qi, and the violent aura surged between heaven and earth, hiss!

Behind the two women was a Seven-Colored Giant Python Seven-Colored Giant Python, with Zi Yan accompanying it. The powerful figures from the Underworld behind them unleashed their various Dou Qi, causing the wind and clouds to change color. The people of the Heavenly Snake Mansion were filled with fear. Their opponents were a group of Dou Zong (Battle Masters) leading a group of Dou Emperor (Battle Emperors Dou Zong) and Dou Wang Battle Kings), while their side consisted of at most a few Dou Emperor. How could they possibly fight?

However, Yun Yun and the others did not pay attention to the people from the Heavenly Snake Mansion, but instead rushed straight towards Xiao Yu.

"Extreme Wind - Meteor Kill!"

"Heavenly Yin Poison Hand!"

Meanwhile, Cai Lin unleashed a torrent of Seven-Colored Energy Ribbon towards Lin Guannan, while Zi Yan led many powerful figures from the Underworld to attack the people from the Heavenly Snake Mansion.

After Xiao Yu knocked Lin Guannan back with a punch, he clenched his fists, and a dark golden flame rose from his body. Lin Qingge, who was about to get close, sensed a dangerous aura and immediately chose to dodge. With a slight movement, several ice spikes appeared in her palms and she flung them towards Xiao Yu!

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!

Several whooshing sounds came, and Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. The Chaos Flame immediately swept towards the ice spikes, and in just one exchange, the ice spikes turned into Nihility.

Lin Qingge's eyes narrowed slightly as she retreated. The ice spikes were formed from her condensed Dou Qi, yet they were reduced to Nihility without even being blocked by this flame!

"What kind of flame is this? It's so powerful!" Lin Qingge exclaimed.

Xiao Yu lightly touched the air with his toes, and his figure instantly vanished from his original spot. The next moment, Xiao Yu appeared behind Lin Qingge, chuckled, and said, "Mansion Lord Lin, why did you have to get involved!"

After saying that, Xiao Yu struck Lin Qingge on the back with a palm. The powerful force made Lin Qingge's delicate body tremble, and then a metallic taste rose in her throat, and Lin Qingge's face turned pale.

P. S.: My toothache is killing me! I'm getting it pulled tomorrow. Only one update tonight, sorry!
