Upon hearing Ouyang Xuan’s sigh, a sense of despondency also began to weigh on the man’s heart.
They had indeed lost, but he couldn’t shake a feeling of unease.
Even if they admitted defeat, would these people truly let them go?
"We admit defeat, please let us go," he said.
Despite his unwillingness to do so, the martial artist agreed with Ouyang Xuan’s decision.
Because it was indeed impossible for them to defeat Chang Bai’s team.
However, just as the martial artist next to Ouyang Xuan gave up resistance and was about to hand over his command token and treasures, a martial artist from Chang Bai’s team with swift movement technique suddenly dashed past him and with one sweep of his blade, decapitated the man.
"You bastards... You’re dishonorable, I’ll fight you all to the death."
Ouyang Xuan, splattered with fresh blood, roared in fury and released his spiritual power manically; his sword immediately glowed with a searing light, and his eyes, bloodshot, he slashed toward Chang Bai and the others. Read complete versıon only at novel⚑fire.net
However, with Chang Bai having also broken through to the Half-Step Return to Void Realm, along with a few other martial artists, they still oppressively restrained Ouyang Xuan.
"You lot, go kill those behind us," Chang Bai ordered his fellow martial artists.
"And be quick about it, don’t let them escape."
Upon receiving Chang Bai’s instructions, the martial artists immediately leaped into action, aggressively engaging the martial artists behind Ouyang Xuan in combat.
Shortly after, apart from Ouyang Xuan, there were only three people left in his team.
All three were women, their hands now sealed by restrictions, unable to channel spiritual power into the Teleportation Jade Slip and thus unable to escape the secret realm.
"Boss, these three beauties don’t look bad. After the brothers have had their fun, it won’t be too late to kill them," said a martial artist with an evil grin, eyeing the three beautiful women.
Chang Bai heard this and nodded.
After all, this wasn’t the first time they were doing this, and the so-called enjoyment would naturally start with him, the big brother.
"You pack of beasts, I’ll drag you all down with me," Ouyang Xuan’s eyes were blood red with fury.
Ouyang Xuan had used some secret technique, turning not just his eyes, but even his skin blood red.
The aura on his body surged, and wielding his long sword, he unleashed wave after wave of Sword Qi at the other martial artists.
"A secret technique burning essence blood, huh? You think too highly of yourself if you believe we’ll join you in death," sneered Chang Bai.
"Did you really think that just because you did well in the Trial Tower, your strength surpasses ours?"
Chang Bai let out a cold laugh, his palm coated in a thin layer of ice.
As Chang Bai waved his large hand, the temperature around them plummeted and the next instant, ice ridges rose from the ground, blocking all of Chang Bai’s attacks.
Seeing this, Ouyang Xuan’s eyes momentarily lost focus, unable to believe how easily his attacks were being countered.
"Kid, you must be puzzled inside, wondering how I, who was virtually unknown in the Trial Tower, now possess such formidable strength," said Chang Bai.
"Let me tell you, so you don’t die with regrets. It’s because we found quite a few opportunities in this secret realm."
"This power didn’t belong to me before, but as for what sort of opportunity it is, you’ll experience it thoroughly very soon."
Chang Bai’s smile grew menacing as he continued to fling his ice hands, and one after another, ice cones materialized in the air, stabbing toward Ouyang Xuan.
There was no denying that the man’s methods were both cruel and powerful.
In just a short while, Ouyang Xuan was covered with wounds, his clothes soaked in blood.
"What a boring fellow, I thought you were some kind of strong warrior, yet you’re so easily defeated."
"If this is all the strength you possess, then you might as well die."
"I’m actually quite curious if any of those who ranked at the top in the Trial Tower can withstand my Ice Fist."
Chang Bai looked at Ouyang Xuan with a cold expression, his palm covered in a layer of frost, ready to finish Ouyang Xuan off.
However, just as Chang Bai was about to act, his expression suddenly changed; he sensed a formidable force coming from behind him.
Without time for further thought, he quickly summoned his Cold Ice Power, forming three layers of ice walls behind him.
Yet even with three layers of ice walls in place, they were still shattered by the sudden Sword Qi attack, and the Sword Qi struck Chang Bai, blasting him hundreds of meters away to slam into a mountain wall, causing a tremendous noise and carving out a large crater upon impact.
Then, the figures of Lin Chen, Xia Wanxin, and the Purple-robed Maiden slowly appeared from a distance.
"With just this level of strength, you dare challenge me?" Lin Chen said as he looked at Chang Bai, who had been sent flying by his sword from afar.
He could sense that Chang Bai was still alive; without those three ice walls as defense earlier, the man would have been either dead or severely wounded.
Seeing the arrival of Lin Chen, Xia Wanxin, and the Purple-robed Maiden, Chang Bai’s team of martial artists immediately surrounded the trio.
"Good, very good. I was wondering where to find you, and here you are, delivering yourself to my doorstep."
"I’ve heard you’ve got quite a few treasures on you, hand them over nicely, and I might spare your life!"
