Chapter Seventy-Three: Siege

  "Liu brother, this kid is truly a prodigy! At such a young age, his skills are already on par with yours and mine. I have no idea which senior taught him to become such an extraordinary youngster." Zheng Chuanfeng said with a look of astonishment.

  Liu Lei gazed at the battlefield, nodding slightly and said: "Zheng brother, can you see what kind of skill this child is using? I really can't tell."

  "It's not visible, this kid's martial arts route is something I've never seen before in my life. Although his moves are simple and seem ordinary, every move actually hides a sinister plot, what a great move! Brother Liu, I really can't think of which senior would have such an ultimate skill, I really want to visit him!" Zheng Chuanfeng let out a sigh of admiration.

  Tian Feng's expression on his face became increasingly unsightly, because at this moment the situation on the battlefield was very clear. The two enshrined by the Tian family were actually being suppressed and beaten by Zhang Huaming. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the two enshrined by the Tian family were now in a desperate situation, barely holding on, and defeat was only a matter of time.

  "The gap between opponents of the same level is so great, Brother Liu. I'm afraid this young man's cultivation can already rival ours. If he doesn't fall, he will surely become a legendary figure in the Martial Arts Continent." Zheng Chuangfeng's face revealed a thick intent to battle.

  "En." Liu Lei responded with a serious expression.

  Tian Feng saw that his two senior officials, Zhang Huaming, had been attacking for a long time without success. When he saw Zheng Chuanfeng and Liu Lei with a smile on their faces, a thread of anger surged up in his heart. Regardless of his identity and face, he actually joined the battle.

  Boom boom boom boom！！！The high-ranking Wu Shen took action, and it was indeed extraordinary. Before he arrived, his momentum had already suppressed others by a notch. Zhang Huaming, who originally had the upper hand, found himself on the defensive after Tianfeng joined in, and he even faced crises at every turn.

  "What the...?! Is this really Tianfeng that old man?!" Liu Lei's face showed a look of surprise as he glanced at Zheng Chuanfeng beside him, with an expression of disbelief. In their impression, people from the Tian family were extremely concerned about saving face, so how could they be so abnormal today, attacking a junior without regard for face or status?!

  Zheng Chuanfeng's eyes gleamed with a hint of excitement as he said, "Liu brother, don't you think it's time for us to make our move?"

  Liu Lei's expression changed slightly, and he shook his head slightly: "Zheng brother, I think we should wait and see. If this child really encounters a great crisis, we can lend a hand to help him out, and establish a good relationship between our two families. If not, there is no need for us to confront the Tian family head-on because of this child. What do you think?"

  "Brother Liu is right, let's just wait and see!" Zheng Chuanfeng echoed after hearing Liu Lei's suggestion. Although they didn't like the way Tianjia did things, the other party had real talent and resources to be so bold. Otherwise, how could Tianjia occupy the top position among the five major families for tens of thousands of years? This wasn't something that could be maintained by relying on brute force alone, but rather it was supported by the true foundation of the family.

  "Haha, it turns out that the Tian family is also a mouse generation, haha!" Zhang Huaming was surrounded by three masters, but he had not yet reached the end of his rope, because he had not yet used the Demon-slaying Five Styles taught by Xuan Tian. The reason he didn't use the Demon-slaying Five Styles was that he was worried about affecting Yu Yan, who was currently breaking through in the small cave.

  Tianfeng heard Zhang Huaming's words and his anger burned even more fiercely. He let out a loud shout: "Release the attack, kill!"

  "Kill!" The two attendants following Tianfeng heard their master's words and instantly accelerated their attack speed, suppressing all of Zhang Huaming's attacks in an instant.

  "Whoosh!" Several figures appeared on the outskirts of the battlefield, and the newcomers were none other than the masters of two of the five great families: Xue Ling, the master of the Blood Family, and Yan Zhenwu, the master of the Yan Family.

  "Huh!" Xue Ling and Yan Zhenwu's faces showed a look of surprise as they gazed at the battlefield, quickly thinking about Zhang Huaming's information in their minds. After all, someone who dared to go against the Tian family, the leader of the five major families, seemed to have never appeared on the Wulin continent before. Who exactly was this kid?

  "Sworn brothers, Second Brother, you two have arrived too late and missed a good show." Liu Lei said with a chuckle.

  "Liu brother, who is this kid? How dare he?" Yan Zhenwu asked with a hint of surprise on his face.

  Liu Lei slightly shook his head and smiled: "Brother Yan, I really don't know."

  "Dragon's Claw." A loud shout came from the battlefield.

  "Roar!!! Roar!!!" Several dragon roars echoed out.

  "What? Turning the virtual into reality?" Zheng Chuanfeng and the other three family heads saw several golden dragons entwining Tianfeng and his two companions on the battlefield, and their expressions changed in unison.

  "Heaven's Edge, Sever!" Tianfeng let out a loud roar, his hands slicing through the air, and a golden light appeared in the void, striking the surrounding Golden Dragons.

  BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM！！！A series of explosions rang out on the battlefield, and in an instant, a mushroom cloud composed of dust and debris shot up into the sky, with the shockwave snapping the towering trees around it in half.

  Thud, thud, thud! After Zhang Huaming continuously pushed out over a dozen steps, his expression changed slightly, his throat rolled around for a moment, and then with a "pu" sound, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

  Hoo! Tianfeng and three others stood shoulder to shoulder, their three gazes fixed on Zhang Huaming.

  "Huh?" Suddenly, the battlefield underwent a drastic change. A gigantic red cloud appeared in the sky, and the temperature around them soared to an extreme level. Protective barriers emerged on the surface of everyone's bodies, while those who reacted slightly slower had their clothes instantly reduced to ashes, leaving them stark naked in front of everyone.

  "Tian Zhao?" The heads of the five major families, Tian Feng and others, suddenly had a name pop into their minds. After all, the five major families have a long history, and most of the events on the Wulin continent are recorded in ancient tomes by the five major families.

  "Breakthrough of the Fire Pulse Body?" Tianfeng and the other five great family heads were shocked, and in the next moment, their eyes fixed on a red mist behind Zhang Huaming. There was no doubt that someone with the Fire Spirit Pulse was breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm behind the red mist, otherwise, this heavenly omen would not have appeared.

  Brush brush! Zheng Chuanfeng and other four big family heads came to within less than ten meters in front of Zhang Huaming, forming a circle with Tianfeng, surrounding Zhang Huaming in the middle.

  Tian Feng's face fell as he witnessed this scene, his voice low and menacing: "Everyone, are you trying to contend with me?"

  "Haha, Tian Xiong is joking, this younger brother will absolutely not compete with you, just let go and do your thing." Liu Lei said with a smile.

  Zheng Chuanfeng also responded lightly: "Do I need your Tian family to intervene in whatever the Zheng family does?"

  Tian Feng's expression changed slightly upon hearing Zheng Chuanfeng's words, and his eyes fell on the late-arriving Blood Ling and Yan Zhenwu, as if waiting for some kind of answer.

  Xue Ling's expression sank as she thought for a moment before saying coldly, "My Xue family is withdrawing."

  Xue Ling finished speaking and surprisingly really took two attendants out of the battle circle, but when he left, he glanced at Zhang Huaming with an inexplicable gaze. His gaze was naturally captured by Tianfeng and others, but they didn't understand why Xue would give up on someone with a fire pulse. Could it be that the Xue family is now so generous?

  Yan Zhenwu thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "Tian Xiong, I'm really sorry, but this time I'll have to compete with you too. Everyone will rely on their own abilities."

  Tian Feng sneered coldly after hearing Zheng Chuanfeng and the other two, "Alright, since that's how it is, then let everyone rely on their own abilities to compete with each other."

  Clang, clang, clang! A series of metallic sounds rang out, and Tian Feng and his two attendants all produced their own weapons in their hands. It seemed that the three were ready to start a fierce battle.

  Zheng Chuanfeng and others saw the weapons in Tianfeng's hands, and their eyebrows furrowed slightly. The sword in Tianfeng's hand was the first of the five great divine artifacts on the Wulin continent, the Golden Sword. It was said that this sword was a special weapon of the Golden God during the Honghuang period, and if someone who possessed this sword cultivated golden attribute techniques, their attack power would increase by 50%.

  Clang, clang, clang! Zheng Chuanfeng, Yan Zhenwu, and Liu Lei, as the masters of the three major families, naturally had divine artifacts to protect themselves. As a result, each of them produced their family's heirloom artifact. Zheng Chuanfeng wielded a large yellow-brown knife, Liu Lei used a milky white long sword, while Yan Zhenwu surprisingly used a withered wooden stick - yes, a withered wooden stick.

  As soon as the four weapons appeared, Zhang Huaming's expression changed drastically, because he had just felt that these four weapons brought him a strong sense of danger. Moreover, as soon as the four weapons appeared, they were filled with their own attribute spiritual energy. At this moment, the four weapons did not look like weapons at all, but rather like four monsters waiting to devour everything, waiting for food to eat.
