Above the void, Xu Rui looked at the Northern King standing in front of Xiao Yan, his brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed. He quickly looked at the puppet that had fought against the Northern King earlier, and upon seeing it, his face turned ashen.
Under the constant bombardment of the Northern King, his puppet was no longer what it used to be. Its steel body had been reduced to a flat iron disc, its limbs severed and its body destroyed. One after another, glaring fist marks were deeply embedded in the puppet, especially in the center of its chest, where a hole as thick as an arm ran through it from front to back. The puppet, which was comparable to Origin King level expert, had been blasted into scrap metal by the Northern King!
"What a terrifying puppet! It actually managed to damage my puppet like this. However, once you die, this puppet will be mine!"
Despite his surprise, the Northern King's strength fueled Xu Rui's greed. In a flash, he was in front of the Northern King, and with a flick of his palm, the Power of the Great Dao condensed, and he slammed a palm towards the Northern King.
"Bang!"
With a single strike, a palm print an inch deep was immediately left on the Northern King's chest. The gray Power of the Great Dao continued to destroy the Northern King's body, but then, the power of thunder surged outward from his body, and his sunken chest was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Amazing recovery ability, hahaha!"
"Get out of my way for now!"
With a sinister grin, Xu Rui raised his right leg high and then slammed it into the Northern King's chest again. The heavy force sent the Northern King flying. At the same time, Xiao Yan appeared behind the Northern King. When Xu Rui's gaze fell on Xiao Yan, he saw a magnificent Fire Lotus the size of a washbasin slowly blooming between Xiao Yan's hands. Finally, to Xu Rui's astonishment, the Fire Lotus was sent forward and gently rested on his chest.
"Try this..."
"Boom!"
The next moment, the world turned white, and the brilliance of all things dimmed. The entire world turned white, and on the far horizon, a magnificent Fire Lotus could be seen blooming in the world. Its dazzling light made the whole world tremble. After a long time, the boundless void began to collapse, and a terrible storm swept across the entire world.
Somewhere in the void beyond the storm, an old man in white robes gazed at the scene before him, a look of shock welling up in his cloudy eyes.
"This is... the aura of Heavenly Flames, could it be him?"
With this thought in mind, the old man's expression changed again. Then, his figure flashed, and when his afterimage disappeared, his aura had already traveled far into the sky.
Above the Fallen Poison Cave, after a long while, when the energy storm completely dissipated, Xu Rui was nowhere to be seen in the void. Even his aura had been completely annihilated in the storm, clearly indicating that he was dead beyond any doubt. As for Xu Cong, Yao Mei, and the others, although they were still standing in the sky, they were all pale-faced due to the sword wounds they had suffered from Xiao Xuan and the onslaught of the energy storm. Although they were not seriously injured, they were close to being seriously wounded.
However, after using their trump cards, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xuan had completely lost all their fighting power. Even with the Northern King's support, the remaining four could not stop them.
On the sand, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xuan sat cross-legged, their faces deathly pale, while the Northern King stood guard beside them, waiting for their final struggle.
Then, the four people landed on the ground, staring at the two people in front of them with different expressions.
"Cough cough... You... you actually killed Xu Rui..."
Xu Cong's face was extremely gloomy. He and the former were brothers, but now, a mere boy with cultivation only at the Origin Return Realm had actually killed Xu Rui. This was truly unbelievable to him, and of course, even more so, he felt grief and indignation.
He never imagined that dealing with just a Origin King and a Origin Return Realm kid would lead him to such a predicament. Not only were his puppets destroyed, but his own brothers were also killed by the other side. And yet, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xuan are still alive and well in front of him, and even their puppets are intact. This is something he finds hard to accept.
"It's not fair... it's not fair... this is not fair! You must pay the price for his death!"
A moment later, a look of fury suddenly appeared in Xu Cong's eyes. The killing intent in his heart was like a raging fire that could not be quelled. Today, these two people in front of him must pay tribute to his younger brother with their lives!
"Hmph... Fair? You think it's fair that you outnumbered and outgunned? You think it's fair that you, with your Origin King cultivation, bullied someone at the Origin Return Realm? Or is it fair that you bullied the weak by relying on your seniority?!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan laughed. The concept of fairness was a joke here, among their group, and even across the entire continent. Yet he was speaking so confidently about it; how could he not be ridiculed?
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! It's all because of you, you ant! Die!"
Enraged, Xu Cong disregarded everything else, channeling his Origin Qi to suppress his injuries. With a crazed killing intent, he charged towards Xiao Yan's expression changed instantly. With a thought, the Northern King in front of him immediately rushed forward, meeting Xu Cong's attack head-on with a punch.
The two clashed, and almost instantly, Xu Cong was defeated. Already injured, and with the added strength of the Northern King, he was no match for him. However, Hui Fu and the blue-faced strong man behind him took the opportunity to dodge past them and arrived in front of Xiao Yan in the blink of an eye, grabbing at the latter's head.
"Buzz!"
However, at that moment, Xiao Xuan suddenly stood up, squeezed out the last bit of Origin Qi in his body, and forcibly used the Heaven-Imprisoning Formation to temporarily control the actions of the two people in front of him.
"Let's go, get out of here!"
Xiao Xuan's face was flushed, and bright red blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth. His face was contorted from the strain, but even so, he still hoped that Xiao Yan could leave this place alive.
"Hmph, you think you can just leave? Not so easy! You've left me severely injured, and today I'm going to suck your blood and eat your flesh!"
Before Xiao Yan Xiao Yan make a move, the Yao Mei reappeared before him. Her once captivating face was now contorted with a terrifying ferocity. Her slender, bony hand pressed down hard on Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan head, and with her mouth wide open, she bit down hard on his neck with a mouthful of sharp teeth.
The next moment, just as the Yao Mei lips were close to Xiao Yan's neck, a figure in white robes suddenly appeared behind Xiao Yan. Almost simultaneously, an old hand covered in wrinkles grabbed the Yao Mei's slender and delicate neck.
"You dare touch someone from my Xiao Clan? Who do you think you are?"
