"Despicable attacker!" Gongsun Luo cursed angrily. "You think you can defeat me with such dirty tricks? Today I'll show you that the Gongsun family's prestige cannot be challenged!"

He spoke with righteous indignation, slashing his knife and creating a blinding flash of light.

Across from him, Ye Jinglan was practically laughing in anger. She sneered, accelerating her body and creating a whirlwind as she dodged and circled around him, continuing her attack: "If you think your tortoise shell, bought with money, can protect you, keep dreaming, because it's completely useless; it just turns you into a more resilient punching bag!"

The storm and the flashing blades mingled together as the two fought in the air, but it was clear that Ye Jinglan had the absolute upper hand.

Aside from him, the other three, though aware of the danger, couldn't escape the giant net's ambush. The white net, rising from the ground, instantly enveloped them, binding them together and robbing them of their ability to fly. They fell into the raging inferno of the forest below!

Chapter 266 The Hatred of Killing His Son

"I come!"

Even though the fall left him dazed and confused, and the raging forest and billowing black smoke around him were quite irritating, Gongsun Hua quickly recovered. He let out a low roar, concentrated his energy, and began to circulate his internal energy, ready to tear apart the carefully laid giant net.

However, at this moment, golden lightning suddenly appeared from the other side of the sea of ​​fire. A golden, semi-transparent skeletal giant, more than three meters tall, rose from the ground and rushed to their faces, holding a huge lightning halberd in its hand, and slashed horizontally at the three of them!

Instantly, Gongsun Liu's eyes widened in fury. He sensed danger in the thunder: "How dare you, you brat!"

Weng——

Before he finished speaking, his life-saving magic weapon activated. This guy was using it recklessly, almost treating the magic weapon like a disposable item!

Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain. A semi-transparent barrier appeared, protecting the three brothers in the middle. Then the thunderous guan dao struck down, and his defensive magic weapon was instantly overloaded and burned. However, the power of the thunder had also dissipated, and it was almost harmless to them!

Yun Chu'an's expression was cold as he coldly observed everything before him. He wasn't actually surprised; he had expected what was happening. After all, the Gongsun family sold protective magic items, and they themselves certainly used these things.

However, he wasn't the main attacker on this battlefield anyway. After breaking through the enemy's defenses, he immediately retreated.

The next moment, Gongsun Hua roared, "Break!"

He suddenly spread his arms, instantly shattering the spiritual spiderweb binding the three brothers. His eyes were bloodshot, his hair disheveled, but at that very moment, something truly deadly struck—

whoosh-

A throwing knife!

A blue throwing knife coated with deadly poison!

Just as Gongsun Hua broke through the spider web, the flying knife suddenly pierced his abdomen, precisely embedding itself in his dantian!

"Um?!"

In an instant, Gongsun Hua's eyes widened in horror, and the deadly poison spread rapidly, causing his spiritual energy to stagnate and become sluggish. In the blink of an eye, most of his combat power was destroyed!

That was Zhu Yunqing's doing; a sneak attack is meaningless if it's not followed by further attacks. Their strategy was to concentrate their forces to eliminate one target, or at least render them incapable of fighting.

Even this strike wasn't her final blow. Immediately following it, a clear voice rang out: "Freeze!"

A chilling cold suddenly rose up. In the distance, a girl with pink hair, wearing a white shirt and a light blue skirt, pointed in this direction. Gongsun Hua, who was about to pull out the poisoned throwing knife from his abdomen, had a layer of ice crystals form on his body, rendering him unable to move!

In a short period of time, this person was practically rendered incapable of fighting!

"Second brother!"

Gongsun Liu leaped forward, trying to save his brother, but Zhu Yunqing, who was prepared, moved faster. She reached out and shot out pure white spider silk from her sleeve, grabbing Gongsun Hua's ice block and pulling him to her side.

Knowing that they would have no chance of winning this battle if they couldn't save their second brother, Gongsun Liu, even though she knew it was a trap, could only draw her sword and follow: "Witch, you're courting death!"

Gongsun Shui was about to follow, but suddenly Yun Chuan returned and blocked his way: "Your opponent is me."

He returned, wielding his Guan Dao. His cultivation at the ninth level of Qi Refining had given him confidence, and now he could more easily control the lightning around him, moving with lightning speed to face the Foundation Establishment cultivators!

Gongsun Shui stopped in her tracks, looked at him, and couldn't help but sneer: "A mere ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator?"

Yun Chu'an also sneered: "I killed Gongsun Zhong and Gongsun Yong."

These words pierced Gongsun Shui's heart, causing his mockery to freeze instantly, followed by a chilling expression: "Yong'er, did you kill him?!"

An uncontrollable killing intent was rising in his throat. Yun Chu'an was slightly taken aback, realizing that the other party must be one of Gongsun Yong's closest relatives, and immediately chuckled: "What a small world."

Immediately, he also stopped smiling: "He was too clever for his own good and shot himself in the foot. He lost everything and can't afford to play the game anymore. He committed many evils and deserves to die. Someone should have torn him to pieces long ago!"

In an instant, Gongsun Shui's eyes reddened. As a father, how could he possibly tolerate others slandering his most proud son like this? "You ignorant brat who speaks such nonsense, you have no idea how arrogant you are!"

"Today I will show you that the wrath of the Gongsun family is a price you can never afford!"

He roared, drew his long sword, and charged straight at Yun Chu'an. The latter's face was cold and stern as he stared at his enemy's father, his mind calm, though he continued to shout, "Watch this! This is your son's defensive treasure!"

As he spoke, he activated the badge he was wearing on his chest, swung his Guan Dao (a type of halberd), and clashed head-on with him.

The weapons clashed, the ear-piercing clang of metal echoing through the raging forest. The flames reflected the madness in Gongsun Shui's heart: "Shut up!"

He roared, his eyes red as he stepped forward. Yun Chu'an took a half step back. Even though he was facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator head-on, he had magical treasures for self-defense, so he was not only unharmed but also gained a considerable advantage: "Your son is a coward! He didn't even resist; he just knelt down and begged for mercy!"

"That's why I was able to completely seize his self-defense weapon!"

He shouted, deliberately provoking the other party. Even though Gongsun Shui knew this was a calculated move, he couldn't control his inner rage: "Shut up, you brat, you're disgracing my son's name!"

“My son is the pride of heaven. He is the one who kills lowly families like yours. How dare you lay a finger on him!”

His heart was bleeding; he couldn't imagine the scene: his beloved son kowtowing and begging for mercy from outsiders.

Enraged, he couldn't help but speak the truth: he had never regarded small families or even rogue cultivators as human beings. Slaughtering entire families was something he could do with ease, and he was too lazy to even dirty his own hands.

And now, these lowly rogue cultivators dare to turn against my great Gongsun family and even harm my son?

This is absolutely, absolutely unacceptable!

He roared and howled, urging his martial arts to their limit, and pounced on Yun Chu'an like a madman, determined to kill him with his life!

His reason had been completely consumed by anger, but this was exactly the result Yun Chuan wanted.

His face wore a cold mockery, but his heart remained calm, unmoved by Gongsun Shui's roar and rage.

Seeing the man trembling with rage and losing his mind, he immediately realized his opportunity had arrived. He suddenly stepped forward, brandishing his guandao as if to fight head-on, but instead deliberately offered his own head to the blade.

clang--

The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out. Gongsun Shui only realized that this guy possessed a powerful Vajra Talisman when Yun Chuan's body shone with an indestructible light. However, it was too late to sheathe his sword now!

Consumed by rage, he uncontrollably exerted all his strength, and thus the pain returned by this strike was nothing short of fatal!

"Uh--"

He involuntarily took a step back, leaving the gate wide open, while Yun Chu'an immediately stepped forward, his Guan Dao slashing down in his face!

click-

The blade's sharpness easily sliced ​​through his leather armor, revealing lightning that instantly electrified him from head to toe.

Gongsun Shui's body suddenly stiffened. The jade pendant around his neck flashed, barely saving his life and allowing him to retreat quickly, trying to create distance.

However, Yun Chu'an's pursuit followed closely behind. The giant formed by lightning strode forward, each step covering tens of meters, causing towering trees along the way to collapse without posing any obstacle to him.

Gongsun Shui originally wanted to distance himself and adjust his breathing before fighting again, but he was immediately horrified to discover that he couldn't create any distance when facing a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining!

Chapter 267 Battle against a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator!

The opponent's charging speed was even faster than his!

"impossible--!"

Gongsun Shui's eyes were bloodshot. Facing the cleaving Guan Dao, he rolled over to dodge. However, he could dodge the blade but not the lightning. The spreading lightning always managed to climb onto his body, making him stiff, and then he could not dodge the Guan Dao that came down next!

"Uh-"

He screamed in agony, his blade flashing wildly, desperately trying to leave a wound on Yun Chu'an.

However, Yun Chu'an was not without means of self-defense. He used the Vajra Talisman again, flicking it at Gongsun Shui before lunging forward and finishing off the man with a final blow!

Despite still harboring deep resentment, today, the wicked Gongsun Shui and his greedy son died together at the hands of Yun Chu'an.

"call……"

Yun Chu'an landed, dispelled the lightning on his body, and let out a long sigh of relief. He looked down at the charred, dried corpse of Gongsun Shui on the ground, and his mood suddenly became quite cheerful.

Although he had not studied any specific offensive techniques, his offensive capabilities were somewhat lacking when facing an enemy like Gongsun Shui, whose defenses were relatively comprehensive and well-rounded. He was unable to achieve a one-hit kill or a decisive victory.

However, his overall skill level has actually reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment. He can deal with Foundation Establishment stage enemies one-on-one quite safely and without much risk.

He turned his head and looked back, and his heart skipped a beat.

At this moment, the battle situation on the side of the third and fourth sisters was not so good. Gongsun Liu activated all the magic treasures on his body, withstood the attacks of the two women, and made his way to his second brother Gongsun Hua's side, shattering the ice crystals on his body with a single punch.

Despite the repeated blows, Gongsun Hua is now poisoned and injured, but at least he has regained his freedom and is now capable of fighting back!

So now, two mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators are joining forces against a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator and an early-Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even though the former is currently in poor condition, they can still fight the latter to a standstill by suppressing the latter's cultivation level.

Even now, Gongsun Hua still possesses many life-saving treasures, but he was caught off guard and didn't have time to use them.

Therefore, at this moment, the two brothers undoubtedly had the upper hand!

Looking over there at the battlefield belonging to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, Yun Chu'an gripped his Guan Dao tightly, eager to try his hand at it.

Am I capable of participating in that battlefield now?

Filled with anticipation, golden lightning once again shone from his body as he sped towards the other side to provide support.

On this side, Gongsun Liu, wielding a long saber, fought two opponents single-handedly without being at a disadvantage. He forced Nie Ning Shuang to condense an ice shield for defense, forcing her to retreat repeatedly, her face pale and rather disheveled.

He could even multitask, catching a glimpse of Yun Chu'an rushing towards him out of the corner of his eye. Suddenly, he sneered, dodged abruptly, and swung his sword to collide head-on with Yun Chu'an—

clang--

A piercing metallic clang rang out as a powerful, unparalleled force from a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator struck. Yun Chu'an immediately felt his hands go numb and his body stagger backward.

The cultivators at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage completely overwhelmed him in both strength and speed. Even with his cultivation techniques, he couldn't overcome this enormous gap!

He staggered back a dozen steps, but still couldn't maintain his balance; his arms were powerless. Gongsun Liu leaped, drawing his sword and slashing at his head. Yun Chu'an hurriedly cast the Vajra Talisman, but the fellow had plenty of time. Halfway through, he withdrew his sword, flipped over, pressed his shoe sole against Yun Chu'an's chest, and gave a powerful push—

whoosh-

An irresistible force struck, sending Yun Chu'an flying hundreds of meters away. By the time he regained his senses, he had crashed into a towering tree, so thick that it would take two people to encircle it, snapping the tree in half. He himself fell to the ground, his body aching terribly!

Gongsun Liu ignored him completely and turned back to fight two against one. Zhu Yunqing and Nie Ningshuang, who were attacking him, could not gain any advantage. In a normal fight, his powerful family background made him able to crush the two girls!

After all, Zhu Yunqing's cultivation level was indeed a notch lower than his, and Nie Ningshuang had not yet fully recovered. With this disparity in strength, they were fighting two against one, yet neither of them could gain any advantage.

"what……"

Yun Chu'an snapped back to reality, letting out a painful groan. He opened his eyes and looked at the distant battlefield, unable to suppress a bitter laugh.

Well, I was just being presumptuous.

In the path of cultivation, the gap widens as you progress. The difference between the mid-stage and early-stage Foundation Establishment is almost equivalent to the difference between the sixth level of Qi Refining and the first level of Qi Refining.

He can now easily defeat early Foundation Establishment cultivators, but the fact that he wasn't killed on the spot by Gongsun Liu, who is in the mid-stage, already shows his profound strength.

An ordinary Qi Refining Stage 9 cultivator being killed with a single palm strike by a Foundation Establishment Stage 2 enemy is already considered a sign that the latter takes him seriously.

But Fourth Sister and the others are still fighting...

He leaned on his Guan Dao, gritted his teeth and stood up, his body trembling, his gaze falling on Gongsun Hua.

Forget it, if we can't handle a normal mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, then let's start with this one who's already severely injured and poisoned!

He hardened his heart, turned around, walked to the already dead Gongsun Shui, and chopped off his head with a single stroke.

Then, lightning flashed across his body again as he sped toward Gongsun Hua.

Unlike Gongsun Liu, who was currently dominating the battlefield and enjoying boundless glory, Gongsun Hua appeared cautious and timid. After all, he was suffering from a severe poison, his spiritual energy was sluggish, and he had not yet recovered.

At this moment, he desperately circulated his internal energy to detoxify while circling the edge of the defense, occasionally making a move to intimidate Nie Ningshuang and Zhu Yunqing, and also to relieve the pressure on Gongsun Liu.

His forehead was covered in sweat, and he was anxious and angry.

It'll be soon, very soon. Once the poison is neutralized, I can work with my third brother to take down both of these women!

How dare you attack and kill us! You are truly ignorant of your own limitations. I will show you what the cruelty of the Gongsun family is!

That was a torment more painful than death!

His eyes flashed with madness, and countless cruel thoughts raced through his mind. Just then, he caught a glimpse of a golden bolt of lightning out of the corner of his eye, and without knowing the situation of the battle in the distance, he was instantly enraged.

That arrogant fool! He was kicked out by my third brother and he's still not satisfied. He even came here looking for death.

He turned to look at Yun Chu'an, bracing himself for battle, when he saw the latter suddenly throw some kind of ball at him.

He subconsciously thought it was some kind of hidden weapon, and casually unleashed a gust of wind to knock it away. However, after the sphere spun twice in mid-air, he saw its face clearly. It was actually his fourth brother, Gongsun Shuitou!

In an instant, Gongsun Hua's mind went blank with a "buzz." He had just been frozen solid and had just come out, so he was completely unaware that his fourth brother had already been killed!

But it was too late. The gale concentrated on Gongsun Shui's head, and the latter exploded like a watermelon!
