Liu Wanxu tried to say something to calm the situation, but to no avail.
" Wang Jue! We outnumber them, what are we afraid of!"
Driven by the emotions stirred up by Wang Jue and Wan Kun, some people suddenly leaned towards fighting again.
Those who hadn't spoken were also persuaded by Wang Jue and Wan Kun, and no longer wanted to slink away.
Everyone present is a renowned figure in the outside world; when have they ever had to fear outnumbered opponents?
In literature, there is no first place; in martial arts, there is no second.
In reality, many people want to compete with such experts and rise to power by stepping on their reputation.
"Well."
Liu Wanxu sighed inwardly, knowing that speaking up to stop them now would only make him seem weak and incompetent, and would undermine morale.
The reason was actually because of the strange things that had happened before; he was suspected of being a traitor, and his prestige naturally declined a lot.
This time, not many people were willing to listen to him.
Fine, since we can't stop them, then let's fight.
Actually, judging from the situation, they had a greater advantage. His decision not to fight was simply because he was worried that others would come.
Wan Kun's proactive attitude likely stems from his perception that there is no one else around.
As long as the battle is won quickly, that's the right thing to do.
Liu Wanxu took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over Han Xuanji standing side by side in front of him, then glancing at the fighting spirit of the crowd behind Li Fu. Finally, he nodded, his voice laced with a fierce intensity:
"Since you all insist on fighting, then let's fight. But there's one condition: the battle must be quick and decisive; we must not linger."
If the commotion is too great and attracts other people, it will be difficult to handle.
"Good!"
Wang Jue had been waiting impatiently for a long time. As soon as Liu Wanxu finished speaking, he shot out like a wild bull, heading straight for Li Fu.
"Court death!"
Li Fu annoyed to see that Wang Jue dared to approach him alone.
Does this mean you think he's not good enough?
Wan Kun then gestured to the three people behind him, and the four figures spread out in a fan shape, flanking Han Xuanji from different directions.
Of the remaining two, one lunged at Zhou Yuan, while Liu Wanxu hovered in mid-air, his hands Hand Seals, his body shimmering with spiritual light, subtly blocking any possible escape routes for Zhou Yuan and Han Xuanji, and remaining vigilant for any other arrivals, so that he could go and provide support if anything happened to Wang Jue.
Zhou Yuan had just stopped from being pursued by the seven people and hadn't even had time to catch his breath when he saw Han Xuanji descend from the sky and stand in front of him. The excitement of surviving a disaster hadn't dissipated when he saw the Ten Thousand Immortals Association members pressing down on him like wolves and tigers.
His heart clenched, his eyes reddened, and he said urgently:
"Brother Han, don't worry about me! There are too many of them, you go first, I'll hold them off!"
In his eyes, Han Xuanji was only one person, and even with Li Fu, there were only two of them. On the other hand, there were seven people, each of whom was a core elite carefully selected by the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, and they were no weaker than the likes of Wang Qing.
He wasn't worth Han Xuanji taking such a big risk for.
Han Xuanji glanced at him sideways, her tone calm:
"Don't worry, I dared to come because I'm confident."
He said this with his usual calm and composed demeanor.
This wasn't him bluffing; he genuinely had the confidence to back it up.
After breaking through to the ninth level of the Eternal True Lord, his spiritual power, physical body, and soul strength reached a new level, and his power increased once again.
With the added benefits of the Shengxin Dao Body and Saint Soul Physique, many of his Cultivation Method have also improved. Although he has not been in the Nine Mysteries Saint Realm for very long, his strength is increasing every day.
While fighting multiple opponents alone is difficult in the Nine Mysteries Saint Realm, it's not impossible for him.
The clash between the two sides erupted in an instant.
Wang Jue and Li Fu were the first to clash. The two forces collided violently in mid-air, clearing away the surrounding thunderclouds.
Li Fu sword moved with wide, sweeping strokes, each strike carrying the domineering aura of the Dao Principle of Destruction, forcing Wang Jue.
Wang Jue, relying on his strong physique, withstood several sword strikes, but his tiger's mouth was already numb from the impact, and he was secretly surprised.
Even under the suppression of the rules of the Saint Realm, Li Fu's combat power is still so terrifying.
But he was not to be outdone. With Liu Wanxu's support from the side, he gradually stabilized his position and for a time fought Li Fu to a standstill.
However, he also knew in his heart that it would be good enough if he could avoid being broken through; he could only wait for the others to finish their battles and come to his aid.
Li Fu was also getting anxious, not expecting Wang Jue have some skills, and he couldn't win for the time being.
He looked towards Han Xuanji and saw Wan Kun leading three elite members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association to surround him.
Damn it.
Li Fu suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed, as he had originally planned.
He and Han Xuanji each fought against three opponents.
Unexpectedly, he was held back, forcing Han Xuanji to withstand the pressure from the four people.
Li Fu shouted loudly, "Brother Han, hold on!"
Han Xuanji nodded, his expression unchanged, and simply said:
"Only four people?"
To be fair, all four of them are quite strong. Compared to those he has fought before, they are all at least on par with Song Tiancheng, and their actual combat abilities are also quite good.
It was precisely because of this that Chi Yuan valued them and recruited them as core members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, promising them many benefits. As long as Chi Yuan could take away the final inheritance, they would all receive a lot of benefits.
Therefore, despite their commotion, none of them actually intended to betray the cause.
"Hmph, I'd like to see just how capable you are, disciple of the Nine Mysteries Holy Lord."
Wan Kun smiled grimly.
He held a pair of short swords, the blades gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light. His figure moved like a ghost around Han Xuanji, constantly searching for an opportunity to strike.
He specializes in the Great Dao of Space, making him perfectly suited to be a deadly assassin.
The other three launched a fierce attack from the front, with one wielding nine flying swords to suppress the enemy from a distance. The Sword Qi surged out like a tide, covering half the sky.
One man wielded a heavy halberd, launching a fierce close-quarters attack, while another continuously used hand Method Formula to restrict Han Xuanji's movements, attempting to confine him to a limited space.
The four worked together seamlessly, clearly the result of a long period of practice and coordination.
If an ordinary cultivator of the Eternal True Lord were to arrive, it would be quite an achievement if they could withstand even one round of attacks.
Once Wan Kun seizes an opportunity, it's basically game over.
However.
This time, their tactics, which had repeatedly proven effective against Han Xuanji, failed to work.
