They each rested, and the night passed without incident!
Near dawn, the sky outside was gray and hazy, carrying an inexplicable heaviness!
As if a storm was about to break!
Jiang Yi sensed something and opened his eyes, rising to his feet with the Great Halberd in hand!
With one step, he left the ruined temple.
Amid shrill neighing, a chaotic clatter of hoofbeats came rolling over.
At a glance, dust billowed into the air!
No fewer than five figures rode sturdy horned horses as they galloped over!
At their head!
Was a young man of around twenty-four or twenty-five, dressed in gold robes and wearing a jade crown, his face brimming with arrogance.
Almost at the same time!
Rustling sounds came from the forest beside the road.
One figure after another emerged!
They surrounded the ruined temple from all sides!
Their clothing was nearly identical, clearly marking them as members of the same force.
The only difference was that the ferocious beast patterns embroidered on their robes varied somewhat!
"Awooo!"
A piercing roar, like a wolf's howl, came from the other end of the road.
Jiang Yi turned to look!
Seven or eight figures swept in through rolling dust like a surging flood.
At the very front!
Someone was riding a gigantic white wolf, its body as large as a tiger and its head like a millstone.
Its fanged maw dripped with saliva!
Jiang Yi: "..."
If he had not guessed wrong, these people should have come from the Hundred Beasts Sect!
What he had not expected was!
That the people from both factions had arrived at the exact same time.
He swept his gaze around. Figures stood everywhere!
They had already surrounded the patch of ground where he stood so tightly that not even water could seep through.
"Was it you, brat, who killed members of my Li family?"
"You dared to kill the Sect Protecting Treasure Beast of my Hundred Beasts Sect? Who are you? Such audacity!"
The people from the two factions arrived one after the other, each side speaking up!
Jiang Yi was caught in the middle!
If he had not known perfectly well!
That these people had all come for him, he might have thought he was blocking two factions on the verge of fighting to the death!
The two men who spoke looked down from on high!
The former was arrogant and disdainful, while the latter brimmed with Killing Intent!
"It's you, Li Guan!"
"Wan Yiming!"
The leaders of both sides were young men. After exchanging glances, they froze for a moment.
The former was the Li family's young master, of exalted status!
The latter's standing was no less impressive. He was the direct grandson of the Hundred Beasts Sect's sect master.
He had inherited the true teachings of the Hundred Beasts Sect!
In the region around Rock Mountain City, he stood alongside the Li family's young master as one of its Martial Dao Prodigies!
Clearly, the two knew each other!
"Is this brat one of yours?"
The two spoke again, almost in unison!
"Holy mother of mine!"
"Brother Jiang, this is the trouble you were talking about?"
Qi Zhengyi and the others in the temple had naturally heard the commotion and hurried outside as well!
The moment they saw the scene before them!
Hu Zhong was the first to lose it, immediately blurting out a curse!
"What exactly did you do to provoke so many people?
Hm? Those clothes?
Could they be the two great powers of Rock Mountain City, the Hundred Beasts Sect and the Li family?
That's incredible!"
Hu Zhong clicked his tongue in amazement and unconsciously raised a thumb.
"Brother Jiang, you're amazing!"
The moment those words left his mouth, they immediately drew the attention of both sides, especially their two leaders!
"You have accomplices?"
Li Guan and Wan Yiming vaguely understood something!
Just then!
"Buzz!"
A hum of weaponry cut off their thoughts. Jiang Yi raised his Great Halberd!
A strand of Asura Killing Intent blossomed!
"Stop looking. They have nothing to do with this. The person you're looking for—
Is me!!!
I killed the Li family members, and I slaughtered your mutant beast too!
Make your move!
Here's a suggestion for you—
Come at me together!"
"Arrogant!"
"Courting death!"
Anger appeared on both Li Guan and Wan Yiming's faces!
"Wan Yiming, leave this brat to me. He dared to kill members of my Li family!
This young master will personally flay him alive!"
"Heh, just because you say he's yours, he's yours?
He killed an incomparably precious Sect Protecting Treasure Beast of my sect.
I need to take him back and hand him over to the sect master for judgment!"
"Then let's settle it with our fists!"
"Boom!!!"
The two leaped from their mounts, revealing their cultivation—the strength of the Blood Qi Realm Seventh Layer!
Then, right in front of Jiang Yi—
They began fighting each other!
Jiang Yi: "..."
Damn it!!!
Were they ignoring him?
What did they take him for?
Jiang Yi stepped forward into the battle between the two. Before the aftershocks had even faded, he swung his Great Halberd!
The halberd thrust out like a dragon emerging from the sea!
The halberd blade shot between their fists and palms, then twisted. Its fierce aura was tragic and fierce!
It forcibly swept the two apart!
And forced its way between them!
Li Guan, whose attack had been forcefully interrupted, naturally flew into a rage!
Feeling that he had lost face, his anger surged sky-high as he turned to attack Jiang Yi!
"Brat, you're courting death!"
His Blood Qi surged violently, crimson blood energy hovering above his head like blazing fire!
Within his palm!
Crimson blood energy descended and formed a blood-red greatsword!
With one slash, blazing heat erupted!
Dazzling red light swept in every direction!
On the other side, Wan Yiming was equally consumed by towering fury.
His body moved like a leopard, swift and savage!
In the blink of an eye, he had reached Jiang Yi. One huge hand shot out!
His five fingers curved slightly, tearing through the air with a shrill, piercing screech!
Like the howl of a wolf and the cry of an eagle, its savage might struck fear into the heart!
"Now this is more like it!"
A smile appeared on Jiang Yi's face!
He swung the halberd in his right hand!
Azure radiance gleamed, metal rang and hummed, and sharp light burst forth as the halberd blade met the sword tip!
His left hand clenched into a fist!
Blood Qi surged throughout his body as he formed a Cauldron Origin Mountain Splitting Fist seal to meet the claw wind.
One against two, yet I remained invincible!
"Boom!!!"
Terrifying aftershocks spread from the three of them, sending sand and stones flying and stirring up wave after wave of violent gusts!
Under the impact of two forces of Blood Qi!
Relying on his incomparably powerful physique, Jiang Yi emerged completely unscathed!
His body suddenly shook!
Shattering the two powerful streams of blood energy attempting to strike him!
Although he was at the Blood Qi Realm Sixth Layer, perhaps one layer below the two in cultivation.
His strength, however, was not equal to his cultivation!
He was stronger!
Crushing the two of them was, in his eyes, no more than a trivial matter!
He closed in, approaching Li Guan first. He swung his Great Halberd and slashed down from above Li Guan's head!
Savage and brutal!
Li Guan could be called a Martial Dao Prodigy in his own right, so his reaction was naturally not slow.
Blood Qi burst from his body, condensing a protective aura over his skin!
Another crimson greatsword formed in his hand and lay across his chest!
"Thud!!!"
With a muffled crash, Li Guan was sent flying backward!
Behind him, Wan Yiming charged in again!
His body seemed to swell, Killing Intent coiling around him as the savagery of a ferocious beast filled the air.
Like a terrifying savage bear!
He Charged headlong, closing in on Jiang Yi!
Jiang Yi was utterly fearless. He planted the Great Halberd into the ground as Cauldron Origin Blood Qi boiled within him and strength swelled throughout his body!
More than one hundred thousand jin of force, wrapped in incomparably majestic Blood Qi, erupted in a tyrannical, heavy torrent!
He met him in a head-on collision!
As the two bodies collided, the ground beneath their feet instantly tore apart!
Like a spiderweb, countless cracks spread in every direction...
