343: Assign opponents, each of them takes action! 【Seeking follow-up reading】

Zhou Qian and Chen Ying’s expressions changed dramatically. They tapped their toes repeatedly in the Void Realm, retreating sharply as they unleashed powerful Martial Art, fiercely striking at the spreading black light wave.

Bang! Bang!

Wherever the black light wave passed, the powerful Martial Art offensives they unleashed crumbled inch by inch!

However, they finally managed to retreat from the attack range, landing somewhat disheveled on a giant tree, their faces grave as they looked at the black-clothed man.

“May I ask which Elder from the Evil Wind Cave Your Excellency is?”

Zhou Qian cupped his hands in a salute and asked in a deep voice.

“Hehe, you little brats always like to play tricks. Since this silver tower has been acquired by my Evil Wind Cave through proper means, you should stop causing trouble!”

The black-clothed man slowly raised his head, revealing an aged face. On his face, there was a black scorpion tattoo, which looked particularly eerie.

“Old Freak Devil Scorpion?”

Zhou Qian looked at the black scorpion tattoo on the old man’s face, his expression suddenly changing. He said in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t expect Elder Demon Scorpion to bother coming out, and to be hiding behind Xie Yan…”

Zhou Qian was clearly very familiar with this old man’s background.

The other party was a genuine Early Stage of the Death Profound Realm expert, and also an Elder of the Evil Wind Cave.

Generally speaking, Elders who reached this Realm mostly cultivated in seclusion and rarely made appearances.

Zhou Qian had not expected the Evil Wind Cave to send this person out.

Chen Ying of the Illusion Demon Sect also frowned tightly.

This Old Freak Devil Scorpion was a Death Profound Realm expert, his strength far exceeding theirs. In a confrontation, they were simply not on the same level.

And now, the experts they brought had all gone in batches to intercept the other three groups from the Evil Wind Cave and couldn’t arrive in a short time.

“You two young ones, for the sake of the Qiankun Grotto and the Illusion Demon Sect, I won’t bother with you. Retreat now, and you might still have a chance to live. Hehe, since you know me, you should also know my methods!”

Old Freak Devil Scorpion grinned, his yellowish teeth emanating a chilling aura.

Zhou Qian and Chen Ying frowned tightly, exchanging glances, both seeing unwillingness and helplessness in each other’s eyes.

“Go!”

In the end, the two reluctantly chose to retreat.

After all, even if they joined forces, they wouldn’t last many rounds against Old Freak Devil Scorpion.

If it weren’t for his apprehension about their backing forces, Old Freak Devil Scorpion probably wouldn’t even give them a chance to escape.

“Many thanks to Elder Scorpion this time!”

Xie Yan watched Zhou Qian and the other retreat in alarm, a sigh of relief escaping his heart. He smiled and thanked Old Freak Devil Scorpion.

“My mission is to escort the silver tower back, so I naturally cannot let anything go wrong with it.”

Old Freak Devil Scorpion waved his hand and said indifferently.

“Then let’s continue our journey,” Xie Yan quickly said upon hearing this.

Xie Yan greatly valued the silver tower in his hand. Only by returning to the Evil Wind Cave as soon as possible could he avoid further complications.

“Hehe, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

Just then, a clear voice suddenly echoed faintly.

As the voice faded, three figures—two men and one woman—suddenly appeared in the sight of Xie Yan and his group.

These three were naturally Lin Fan, Lin Dong, and Mu Lingshan, who had been hiding in the dark and observing for a long time.

“It’s you!”

Seeing Lin Fan and the other two, Xie Yan’s face suddenly turned cold. He said in a frigid voice, “I haven’t even gone to find trouble with you, yet you dare to come knocking on my door. It seems your greed has blinded your minds!”

“Since you’re actively seeking death, I will naturally grant your wish! Elder Scorpion, these three fellows must not be let go!”

Old Freak Devil Scorpion looked at Lin Fan and the other two, then slowly nodded, his hoarse voice filled with chilling killing intent.

“Since Young Cave Master says so, then I shall take the lives of these two.”

“Do you think everyone is as idiotic as you? If we didn’t have confidence, would we come knocking on your door?”

In mid-air, Lin Fan calmly swept his gaze over Xie Yan, Old Freak Devil Scorpion, and the others, scoffing. Then he turned his head and said to Lin Dong and Mu Lingshan beside him,

“I’ll deal with this old ghost, Lin Dong will handle Xie Yan, and the others will be left to Ling Shan. Let’s finish this quickly!”

“No problem,” Mu Lingshan nodded excitedly. Now that her strength had recovered, reaching Perfected Life Profound Realm, dealing with Xie Yan’s subordinates was no trouble at all.

Lin Dong merely nodded, not saying much.

Although Lin Dong was currently only at the Early Stage of Life Profound Realm, with the complete heavenly flame cauldron and various methods like the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, it wouldn’t be too difficult for him to deal with Xie Yan.

Lin Dong’s mind stirred slightly, and a crimson light shot out from his sleeve, then transformed into a massive crimson cauldron suspended in mid-air.

Waves of astonishing fluctuations continuously swept out from the heavenly flame cauldron.

“pure yuan treasure!”

Upon seeing Lin Dong use the heavenly flame cauldron, a greedy glint flashed in the eyes of Old Freak Devil Scorpion, Xie Yan, and the others.

Even a high-grade pure yuan treasure was something that Old Freak Devil Scorpion, with his status and strength, did not possess.

Xie Yan sneered, “Kid, do you think having a pure yuan treasure allows you to show off? If you can hand over this pure yuan treasure, I might be able to spare your life!”

“If you want to snatch my things, then let’s see if you have the ability!”

Lin Dong sneered, his hand seals changing. The heavenly flame cauldron immediately erupted with a crimson light pillar, enveloping Xie Yan.

Boom!

Lin Dong’s hand seals changed like lightning, and the heavenly flame cauldron immediately vibrated. Then, the cauldron body trembled, and it actually disappeared into thin air.

The next instant, before Xie Yan could react, a shadow suddenly descended from the sky at an indescribable speed. A crimson light flashed, like the maw of a beast, and swallowed him whole in one gulp.

“Young Cave Master!”

The members of the Evil Wind Cave, seeing this scene, immediately changed their expressions and cried out in alarm, fiercely attacking Lin Dong.

More than a dozen people burst forth with powerful Qi, their sharp long swords directly carving out fierce arcs, filled with murderous intent!

“You are mine!”

Mu Lingshan, seeing this, pouted her small mouth, blocked in front of Lin Dong, then clenched her small hands, and punched out.

Rumble!

As her punch struck, Qi seemed to transform into a wave in front of her, blue light surging, and a giant whale appeared. Then, carrying a vast power, it fiercely crashed into Xie Yan’s subordinates.

Bang! Bang!

The giant whale fiercely collided with their offensives, and then those offensives immediately crumbled, the long swords wrapped in Qi in their hands also shattering inch by inch.

A massive force struck, and everyone’s chests caved in, blood flying out of their mouths, their bodies dragging long marks on the ground… Lin Dong saw Mu Lingshan’s swift and decisive action and completely relaxed. With a movement of his body, he immediately swept into the heavenly flame cauldron.

“You deserve to die!”

Old Freak Devil Scorpion watched this scene, his face turning grim. He spoke coldly, his voice filled with sharp killing intent! (End of this chapter)
