73: Battle

Not long after, Hong Tao came down with his men.

His eyes burned as he stared at Su Yueyao and Chu Changge beside Wei Xuan.

Thus, one side of the forces was inside the building, and the other side was outside; at this moment, their gazes clashed.

Hong Tao took out a great saber, propped it on the ground, and wore a ferocious expression.

"May I ask which faction you belong to? Killing my brothers, do you think our Giant Shark Gang has no one?"

Wei Xuan said nothing, simply taking the lead and walking over.

The Sabretooth Tiger Group followed closely behind.

At this moment, blades and swords gleamed coldly, revealing their murderous intent.

Hong Tao snorted coldly, immediately raising his great saber and brandishing it!

"Brothers! Kill for me!"

The more than 250 men of the Giant Shark Gang charged forward with sneering faces.

Wei Xuan's gaze was calm as he said faintly, "Yun Xiang, Yuan Cheng is yours! Kill him!"

Yun Xiang's body trembled, "Yes, Big Brother!"

Then he gritted his teeth, clenching his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white.

He had not killed anyone when he followed Wei Xuan in the battle at White Star Bar before; this time, Wei Xuan had given him a test.

As a Ninth Star Spiritual Master, and the previous top student of Qingcheng Spirit Martial Academy, it would certainly not be difficult for Yun Xiang to deal with Yuan Cheng.

However, a life-and-death struggle was another matter entirely.

Wei Xuan smiled faintly, "Tough Guy, Hong Tao is yours!"

Xue Shuhan showed a confident smile, casually agreeing, "Alright."

At this moment, the two sides had already clashed.

Xue Shuhan stepped forward, standing at the very front, spiritual power surging around him.

His Grandmaster Level Aura roared out like an enraged Dragon.

"City-Shattering Hammer!"

In an instant, a colossal, ancient, dark-black City-Shattering Hammer slammed into the men of the Giant Shark Gang.

The City-Shattering Hammer glowed darkly, its leading tip incredibly sharp, the entire hammer about seventy meters long and twenty meters in diameter, directly sending the Giant Shark Gang's frontmost men flying in all directions.

It was like a bomb dropped into a glass bottle; the entire hall was shattered, creating a large hole.

With this single blow, the Giant Shark Gang lost almost half of its numbers!

Hong Tao's hair stood on end at the sight!

A chilling sensation pricked his scalp, making it numb.

He cried out in alarm, "Grandmaster Nine-star!"

At this moment, Hong Tao no longer had any thought of fighting; he only wanted to run away.

A Grandmaster Nine-star fighting him would be like beating his Grandson!

Hong Tao's heart was filled with fear at this moment, and he immediately ran without a word!

Yuan Cheng, standing nearby, also heard this and turned pale with shock, even more surprised that Hong Tao, as the Gang Leader, had abandoned his brothers and run off alone.

Hong Tao's strength was considered that of an expert among Grandmaster Level Martial Artists.

He had comprehended the 'Evil Water' within the Water Attribute, and his offensive power was extremely bizarre and formidable.

If he encountered ordinary Grandmaster Six-star or Seven-star Martial Artists, he would not be afraid.

However, Xue Shuhan was not simple!

Xue Shuhan's own attribute was Dark Gold, and the Gold Attribute was already an extremely powerful one, while as Dark Gold, which ranked high among Gold Attributes, Xue Shuhan was at the peak among those of the same Rank.

Not to mention that Hong Tao was several minor Ranks below him.

Dealing with Hong Tao was as easy as turning over a hand.

Although Hong Tao was extremely fast, turning to flee the moment Xue Shuhan made his move, Xue Shuhan had already targeted him, completely ignoring the other members of the Giant Shark Gang, and quickly closed in on Hong Tao with a few large leaps.

It was only a matter of time before he caught Hong Tao.

Hong Tao and Xue Shuhan disappeared from everyone's sight within a few breaths.

Wei Xuan was not worried about Xue Shuhan; he had great trust in Xue Shuhan's strength.

Seeing that the only Grandmaster Level Martial Artist on Wei Xuan's side had been drawn away, Yuan Cheng's face revealed a vicious smile, and he wiped his shiny forehead.

He chuckled, "I originally wanted to escape, but now it seems I've gotten a good deal."

"Just a few Spirit Apprentices, what kind of trouble can they stir up!"

"Heh heh, that Grandmaster Nine-star is really stupid, he doesn't even realize he's been led astray!"

"That coward Hong Tao ran away, which just makes things easier for me!"

"Heh heh heh..."

"Brothers! Charge!"

With that, Yuan Cheng, wielding a mace, charged forward alone.

Wei Xuan remained still, and Yun Xiang let out a roar as he rushed forward!

He engaged Yuan Cheng in battle.

Chu Changge and Su Yueyao, on the other hand, dealt with the Spirit Scholar Level Martial Artist of the Giant Shark Gang.

The other members of the Sabretooth Tiger Group faced the remaining Spirit Apprentice Level Martial Artists.

Wei Xuan acted as support, his eyes and ears attentive to all directions, constantly monitoring the situation on the field; if anyone was in danger, Wei Xuan would decisively intervene.

Fortunately, although Wei Xuan's side did not have an advantage in numbers, every one of them was a skilled fighter, completely incomparable to the disorganized rabble of the Giant Shark Gang.

In just one minute, more than a dozen members of the Giant Shark Gang had fallen in pools of blood.

Yuan Cheng and Yun Xiang clashed, finding each other quite troublesome.

Yun Xiang held the yaoyang sword in one hand, while simultaneously releasing Daylight to obstruct Yuan Cheng's vision, forcing Yuan Cheng to be completely on the defensive, only able to passively take blows.

Yuan Cheng saw the situation rapidly turn, his face ferocious.

He suddenly let out a roar, startling Yun Xiang, and then Yuan Cheng took a sword strike from Yun Xiang directly on his arm!

"Pfft!" A sound!

Blood splattered all over Yun Xiang's face!

Yun Xiang was stunned for a moment!

At this moment, taking advantage of Yun Xiang's momentary daze, Yuan Cheng's other hand brought his mace crashing down fiercely!

This strike emitted a ghostly wailing, evil wind in the air.

At the same time, the area within twenty meters around Yuan Cheng suddenly sank!

The gravity in the entire area increased several times over!

Wei Xuan's expression changed; Yuan Cheng actually possessed such a gravity-type Battle Technique!

This was an extremely rare Battle Technique within the Earth Attribute!

Wei Xuan had not expected that Yuan Cheng, who had only comprehended an ordinary Earth Attribute, would possess such a monstrous Battle Technique!

Within this area, everyone felt their bodies become much heavier, and their movements slowed down by more than just a little!

Their bodies were even pressed into a slight hunch, as if a mountain had collapsed onto their shoulders.

As the individual closest to Yuan Cheng, Yun Xiang naturally received the strongest gravity suppression!

At this moment, his feet were directly sinking into the ground, submerging past his soles, his body slightly bent, pressing him so hard that for a split second he could barely breathe.

He could only watch helplessly as Yuan Cheng's mace came crashing down, an evil wind assailing his face. Yun Xiang could only grit his teeth and summon all his strength to hold the yaoyang sword horizontally above his head.

Yuan Cheng was also not feeling well at this moment, having taken a sword strike from Yun Xiang head-on, one of his hands was already incapacitated.

Moreover, this Battle Technique had completely depleted the spiritual power within his body; it could be said that this was Yuan Cheng's desperate, all-or-nothing attack.

If he failed to kill Yun Xiang, then he himself would die.

Although this gravity suppression consumed spiritual power and Yuan Cheng could only maintain it for a very brief moment, in that instant, it was enough for him, with his immense power, to smash Yun Xiang to death!

At this moment, Yuan Cheng seemed to already see Yun Xiang's head being smashed to pieces by him.

The Sabretooth Tiger Group roared loudly, while Su Yueyao and Chu Changge turned their heads away, not daring to face the upcoming scene.

The mace had already reached Yun Xiang's head.

At this critical moment,

A strange flash of blade light struck the mace!

"Clang!"

Yuan Cheng was greatly startled, only feeling a powerful force assault him, and the mace was sent flying!

His body stumbled, and the gravity suppression instantly disappeared.

A delicate butterfly knife fell, sticking into the ground!

Yun Xiang turned his head and saw Wei Xuan wiping his hands,

giving him a look of disdain.

"Your actual combat experience is really too poor!"

Yun Xiang's face darkened.
