Peerless Dragon and Snake

"Fusion Skill—Evil-Exterminating Slash!"

The Thirteen Protectors shouted in unison. The General Dharma Image gripped its sword in both hands and raised it high as a powerful sword intent erupted in an instant.

The greatest achievement of this attack had been killing a level ninety-six Super Douluo!

No matter what, Qian Yufeng was only an ordinary Title Douluo.

He definitely would not be able to block it!

He had told them not to hold back, so they would go all out!

The Shadow Organization had never been a group of kind-hearted people.

Facing this attack, Qian Yufeng sensed a trace of mortal danger.

In the past hundred and eighty years, this was only the third time he had encountered it.

Someone had helped him the first two times, but this time, relying on his own strength, he could still turn danger into safety!

If he lost even with the Emperor Halberd in hand, he would truly be the most useless transmigrator in history!

Just then, the system's voice rang out again.

"Ding!"

"Detected that the host has triggered a life-threatening crisis!"

"System mission activated—Narrow Road Brave Wins!"

"Enemy attack detected to pose a tremendous threat to the host's life. Ninth soul skill upgraded!"

"Golden Demon-Exterminating Slash—Emperor Demon-Subduing Annihilation Slash (40% power)!"

A pillow had arrived just when he felt sleepy. This was simply perfect!

The Emperor Demon-Subduing Annihilation Slash at forty percent power was probably because he had yet to unlock the Emperor Armor and could not summon the Emperor War Dragon.

Otherwise, he could have fought his way into the God Realm!

Qian Yufeng raised the Emperor Halberd as well, his expression solemn. "Ninth soul skill—Emperor Demon-Subduing Annihilation Slash!"

As his words fell, a powerful and majestic aura burst forth from his body.

The Thirteen Protectors nearly failed to hold on and almost submitted beneath that aura.

"Damn it, why is this old bastard so powerful?!"

"The power he's unleashing is probably even stronger than ours!"

Third Protector started again, filled with resentment toward Qian Yufeng.

You relic of the old era, couldn't you just obediently accept your sentence?!

This old bastard was downright awful!

"Third Protector, what nonsense are you spouting again?!" First Protector rebuked him.

Qian Yufeng's terror had not reached their ears only because nearly everyone from his era had already died out.

Their leader was very strong. Though she was a woman, no one in the entire organization could last more than three moves against her.

Yet their leader often mentioned Qian Yufeng's name. She both respected him and wanted to eliminate him.

"Elder Qian's strength is unfathomable. Now that he has unleashed such power, this mission is probably doomed!"

First Protector was the captain of the thirteen, and he had never made an error in judging any situation.

This assassination of Qian Yufeng might be their first mission failure—and their last.

There would be no mercy. This was a struggle where only one side could survive!

"One move will determine life and death. Everyone, use all your strength. Even if we cannot kill him, we must make him unable to threaten the empire for a while!"

After First Protector spoke, he unleashed his greatest power.

"Let's do it! I've long since stopped caring about life and death!" Third Protector also erupted with his strongest power.

The other eleven also exerted their strength together. Their auras surged sharply, actually blocking the oppressive pressure Qian Yufeng had brought.

"Interesting. As expected of people she personally taught!" Qian Yufeng praised them. The Emperor Halberd had nearly finished gathering power.

Whoosh—!

His Martial Soul Avatar wielded the Emperor Halberd and charged rapidly at the enemy.

The general formed by the Thirteen Protectors' fusion skill held its longsword and rushed at Qian Yufeng without showing any weakness.

Boom—!

The powerful forces collided. Qian Yufeng felt his heart jolt, but fortunately, his body's defensive attributes were maxed out. Otherwise, he might really have coughed up a mouthful of old blood.

As for the Thirteen Protectors, blood seeped from the corners of all their mouths.

Clearly, they had fallen into a disadvantage in this collision.

"You are all outstanding warriors. Don't worry, I'll collect your bodies for you!"

Qian Yufeng's gaze sharpened as he suddenly erupted with an even stronger force.

The Emperor Halberd easily severed the enemy's longsword, then directly split the general's true form in two.

The Thirteen Protectors suffered the backlash and spat blood one after another as they fell from midair to the ground.

With its source of power gone, the Heavenly Dipper Formation automatically dispersed.

The thirteen struggled to sit up, all looking toward Qian Yufeng with a trace of regret in their eyes.

The mission had failed. What a pity...

Qian Yufeng naturally understood their looks and said, "You did your best. Being able to force me to use all my strength is enough to be proud of."

"Even when you reach the other side, you'll be able to give her an answer."

First Protector coughed, forcing himself to speak with his last breath. "Elder Qian, the leader is dead. No one in this world can hold you back now. If you truly face the empire in the future, I hope you will deal leniently with the imperial family's descendants. This was the last message the leader asked me to bring you."

After saying that, his head slowly lowered, and life left him.

The other twelve had already been unable to hold on, one after another, while he was speaking.

"May you rest in peace." Qian Yufeng sighed softly, then looked toward the woods ahead to his right.

"You two, come out. The battle is over!"

Soon, two figures leaped out and appeared before Qian Yufeng.

"This junior is Meng Shu!"

"This junior is Chao Tianxiang!"

"Greetings, Senior!"

"So, you are this generation's Peerless Dragon and Snake duo!" Qian Yufeng said with a smile.

Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang had originally come to Sunset Forest to find a Crypt Demon Spider for a Soul Ring.

They had not expected to witness a battle unlike anything they had ever seen.

They could not see through Qian Yufeng, and it was also their first time seeing those thirteen men in black.

Fortunately, they had not been caught up in it. Otherwise, they truly must have failed to check the almanac before leaving home.

"Senior, my wife and I came to obtain a Soul Ring. We never expected to stumble across this scene."

"Please rest assured, Senior. My wife and I saw nothing today."

Meng Shu spoke up. Although the other party's clothing was simple, it suited Spirit Hall's style very well.

Although Spirit Hall would not readily attack Spirit Masters, the consequences would be unimaginable if they displeased him.

Chao Tianxiang said nothing, but the meaning in her eyes was obvious.

Qian Yufeng smiled. "Your Dragon and Snake Family has also contributed to maintaining the continent's stability. The Peerless Dragon and Snake couple from two generations ago sacrificed themselves resisting Fallen Spirit Masters. This old man has always remembered it. You are their descendants, so do not forget your family's mission."

The moment he said this, his extraordinary identity became apparent.

After all, aside from the Dragon and Snake Family itself, very few people on the continent still knew that the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple from two generations ago had sacrificed themselves.

"May this junior ask Senior's name?" Meng Shu asked respectfully.

"This old man is Qian Yufeng," Qian Yufeng said calmly.

"What?!" Meng Shu's eyes widened as he stared at him in disbelief. "Senior, you... you truly are..."

It was simply too shocking. This senior was actually still alive!

"On the continent, no one should dare impersonate this old man's name." Qian Yufeng stroked his beard and smiled.

"This junior has lost his composure. After all, I grew up listening to your stories. Now that I have seen you in person, I couldn't control myself." Meng Shu hurriedly explained, admiration appearing in his eyes.

Chao Tianxiang was too stunned to speak. If this existence was still alive, then Spirit Hall had a pillar capable of calming the seas!

Seeing that they were descendants of old acquaintances, Qian Yufeng decided to offer them some guidance.

In the original story, Meng Shu had reached Soul Douluo, while Chao Tianxiang was only a Soul Emperor when she first appeared.

The gap in their Soul Power Levels was far too great. There was likely a problem with the Soul Rings she had added.

He said, "You are both quite good, but your wife's Serpent Cane Martial Soul should continue choosing Mandala Snakes or Phoenix-tail Crested Serpents."

"Otherwise, her strength will remain limited to Soul Emperor for a very long time. Even if she breaks through level seventy, it will consume her own potential."
