Myriad Daos of the Heaven

Little Haas, plucking an enemy’s head with his bare hands and laughing maniacally!

His heroic aura towered, spanning heaven and earth!

For a moment, many were stunned by this scene.

The Ultimate Kill attacks from all sides seemed to serve only as a backdrop for him.

The crowd couldn’t help but sigh in admiration. Guo Qishan, a true hero!

But was Little Haas truly the hero everyone imagined?

He felt no confidence at all. He was terrified—afraid his master wouldn’t appear in time. If that happened, he was really done for.

"HUMMM!"

Finally, a formidable, invisible force descended, and those terrifying Ultimate Kill attacks suddenly disintegrated and vanished.

The next moment, another person had appeared on the scene.

His features were handsome, his eyes shone like stars, and his figure was tall and slender. With just a faint smile, he exuded an aura of someone who could look down upon the entire world.

Jiang Jichen!

By now, who didn’t know his name?

But he had arrived so quickly, hadn’t he?

What’s more, no one had even sensed his appearance.

Even the distant Golden Robe Young Master Tianyao, the three Young Masters of the Pavilion from the Academy, and the top seven powerhouses on the Youth Ranking felt their eyes turn cold.

Jiang Jichen’s appearance was completely unexpected.

This was especially true for the Golden Robe Young Master Tianyao, whose original plan had been to capture Qingya and the other women to force Jiang Jichen to appear.

Because his two Protectors had been killed, he believed Jiang Jichen was the one responsible.

’Does this mean Jiang Jichen has already obtained the treasures and legacy of the Phoenix Race’s lair?’

The Golden Robe Young Master mused to himself, remaining perfectly calm and composed.

As for the crowd, they were shaken, their minds a whirlwind of complex emotions.

Little Haas, however, finally let out a sigh of relief.

’Phew, haha... Little Haas, you’re a genius! Your gamble paid off! Master finally showed up at the critical moment!’

’But Master has gotten so much stronger. And man, can he make an entrance!’

’Mhm, that timing, that style... These are all things you, Little Haas, should study carefully!’

Even in his joy, Little Haas didn’t forget to analyze the situation and learn from it.

Jiang Jichen didn’t look at the crowd. Instead, his gaze fell on Little Haas, and he said with a half-smile, "Guo Qishan, I heard you wanted to personally pluck my head. I’m right here. Care to give it a try?"

His heart skipped a beat when he heard Jiang Jichen’s words, and he inwardly cried out, ’I’m so screwed!’

However, Little Haas put on a confused expression and said, "Such a thing? I’ve never heard of it. Hmph, I, Guo Qishan, am not one for such sensationalism. Although I bear you a grudge, I would fight you in an open and honorable battle. Today, if it weren’t for the sake of my brother, Fang Ying, I would certainly fight you to the death."

"Mmm, rumors from outsiders should not be believed. If I find out who spread this, I will hunt them to the ends of the earth. How dare they ruin my reputation."

As he spoke, Little Haas casually tossed away the head he was holding.

’That’s the guy who was talking trash about me, saying I wanted to take Master’s head myself.’

Because of Little Haas’s bold move, the crowd actually started to believe his words to some extent.

After giving Little Haas a meaningful look, Jiang Jichen let his gaze sweep over the women and Fang Ying.

He suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Fang, do you dare fight a battle alongside me?"

At this moment, Fang Ying was covered in injuries, but after a short rest, he had already recovered quite a bit. He clearly possessed an astonishing recovery ability.

Fang Ying gave a cold smile. "Why wouldn’t I dare?"

After speaking, he stepped out from the protective barrier of light.

What Jiang Jichen said was actually a deliberate test.

Although Fang Ying had fought desperately earlier and still hadn’t given up on protecting Jiang Jichen’s friends, he had only stated that he was repaying a favor.

Now, the favor had been repaid, and Jiang Jichen was issuing another invitation.

If Fang Ying agreed and dared to fight alongside him, it would no longer be about a favor, but about friendship!

Fang Ying, fearless and willing to fight by his side, had proven everything. This was a man worth befriending.

And Fang Ying, in turn, felt the same.

The fact that Jiang Jichen still invited him to fight, despite his heavy injuries, spoke volumes about Jiang Jichen’s attitude.

They were comrades-in-arms. Even if injured, their fighting spirit remained unbroken.

"Haha... Excellent!"

Jiang Jichen let out a wild laugh, and then his gaze finally fell upon the surrounding Cultivators.

His gaze even passed over them, landing with grim intensity on the Golden Robe Young Master and his entourage!

As for the surrounding Cultivators, their hearts were already filled with boundless anger.

They had been ignored by Jiang Jichen, treated as if they didn’t even exist.

"Jiang Jichen, who the hell do you think you are? Now that you’re here, you’re not leaving!"

"How dare you ignore us! You deserve death!"

"Yeah, let’s attack together and kill him."

...

Those who were able to make it this far were all geniuses of the Spirit Infant Realm, with incredibly powerful combat abilities.

And having been tempered in the trials of the Academy’s back mountain, they had grown even stronger. They couldn’t imagine that with so many of them attacking at once, they would fail to kill Jiang Jichen and a heavily injured Fang Ying.

The Golden Robe Young Master Tianyao and his group didn’t make a move. They wanted to first see what Jiang Jichen’s combat power was like.

After all, they hadn’t seen him in a year and had no idea how much stronger he had become.

In truth, deep down, they still felt a trace of fear and apprehension.

"Kill!"

A crowd swarmed in for the kill, unleashing all their ultimate kill techniques.

Some even attacked the protective barrier of light, intending to target the people around Jiang Jichen.

Since his appearance, Jiang Jichen hadn’t shown any killing intent.

But in his heart, he had already sentenced these people to death.

He had no reason to get angry at dead men.

"Jiang Jichen, let’s see how you can be in two places at once and save any of them!"

Someone brought out a Secret Artifact, blasting the protective barrier of light to pieces and exposing the women to the crowd.

At the same time, they moved to attack the women, intending to leave Jiang Jichen with no time to react and no way to be everywhere at once.

In truth, they knew how formidable Jiang Jichen was and didn’t dare to be careless.

Now, they were resorting to any means necessary.

At that moment, seven people simultaneously charged toward the heavily injured women, intending to capture and kill them, while also seizing the Divine Treasures on their bodies.

"Jiang Jichen, today you can only watch helplessly as these women, your friends, die and are violated, powerless to do anything."

The seven Late-Stage Spirit Infant Realm Cultivators grinned lewdly.

At the same time, ten genius Cultivators at the Spirit Infant Perfection Realm swarmed Jiang Jichen and Fang Ying, aiming for the kill.

They had already secretly calculated this: ten of them would pin down Jiang Jichen, while the rest would capture and kill the heavily injured Qingya and the others.

A cold light flashed in Jiang Jichen’s eyes as he gave a grim smile. "Is that so?"

As his voice fell, Sinking Mountain suddenly appeared in his hand, and he swung it.

Suppression of the Eight Desolates!

The next moment, the surrounding Cultivators froze for a split second.

And Fang Ying, his broken sword in hand, swung out at almost the same instant.

"SWISH! SWISH!"

All around, ten heads flew into the air at once.

As for Jiang Jichen, he became a blur of motion, swinging Sinking Mountain again.

Sweeping the Six Harmonies!

"SPLAT! SPLAT..."

This was the sound of bodies disintegrating. The seven Cultivators who had charged the women all exploded and were annihilated.

In a single instant, seventeen people had fallen.

The instantaneous change shocked everyone present. An endless chill rose from the depths of their hearts.

At that moment, they realized they had always, always underestimated Jiang Jichen.

Especially when he had someone coordinating with him.
