Quickly, Ling Chen and Qiu Yong and the others closed in on He Honggang, surrounding him. Looking at the crowd with fierce eyes, He Honggang slightly furrowed his brow, a trace of ruthlessness emerging on his pale face. "Ling Chen, I underestimated you."

"You seem to have never thought highly of me," Ling Chen replied coolly. "Just now, if I hadn’t let you bully me on purpose, how else could I have made you lower your guard?"

"I was careless, but do you think this will make me give up?"

"I know you’re formidable, but you’re injured now. Although I’m not confident I can defeat you, I’m sure I can make you die."

"Kill me?" He Honggang sneered, saying, "Are you joking?"

Ling Chen nodded and said, "Anyway, I wasn’t planning to leave here alive today. Trading my life for yours, I think it’s worth it." Saying that, he picked up two Molotov cocktails from the wooden box beside him. Seeing his actions, Qiu Yong and the others instantly understood, and in no time, all the Molotov cocktails in the box were taken by everyone.

"Mr. He, I know you have the body that cannot die, but if your body is burned to ashes, I wonder if you can recover."

Upon hearing this, a trace of change finally appeared on He Honggang’s face. Seeing the uncertainty in his opponent’s eyes, Ling Chen continued, "You might not know exactly who Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en are, but I understand their nature very well. If anything happens to you, do you think they will save you?" He shook his head to himself and said, "I don’t think so. They’re selfish people, only considering how to maximize their benefits. If you die, they have one less person to share the spoils. I’m sure they’ll be quite pleased."

"You think I’m sure to die?"

"Even if you don’t die tonight, you’ll at least be seriously injured. Do you think they would pass up such a good opportunity?"

"You think your low-level tactics have any effect on me?" He Honggang replied coldly, "Trying to sow discord between us? You’re still too green."

Ling Chen shrugged helplessly and said, "Actually, I don’t mean anything else. I just want you to leave here, so you can live, and I can live too. Of course, if you insist on continuing the fight, then I will accompany you to the end. Even if we all die tonight, I’ll make sure to drag you down with me." Speaking of this, he glanced at Ling Gengqiu’s situation; at this moment, Ling Gengqiu was already on the verge of collapse, likely to lose his combat effectiveness at any moment.

"You have three seconds to consider," Ling Chen turned his head and looked at He Honggang, saying, "One... two... attack!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone raised their Molotov cocktails and quickly charged towards He Honggang. Their thought process was simple: they didn’t need to touch He Honggang’s body, just get close to him. Once they entered within one meter of him and then detonated the Molotov cocktails, the flames would surely spread to him. Moreover, Ling Chen and the others had already surrounded him, regardless of where he dashed, he couldn’t escape the attack of flames.

Seeing Ling Chen approaching, preparing to explode the Molotov cocktail, He Honggang finally couldn’t maintain his calm, urgently shouting, "Everyone, stop!"

Upon hearing his shout, Ling Chen immediately stopped his steps forward. Meanwhile, Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en, who were fighting Ling Gengqiu, also stopped, staring at He Honggang with confused expressions.

"You all leave first!"

"Leave?" Chen Younian’s face slightly sank, asking, "Why leave? We’ve come this far, are you asking us to give up?"

"Stop talking and leave this damned place immediately, I’ll explain it to you later after we return."

Chen Younian shook his head and said, "Explain now, I don’t want to miss a good opportunity because of your words."

Seeing his opponent unwilling to retreat, He Honggang couldn’t help but furrow his brows, a trace of coldness flickering in his eyes. "I’ve said it before, your cooperation is merely based on interests, and when faced with interests, do you think they will listen to you?" Ling Chen spoke with a faint smile, "You wouldn’t really consider them your subordinates, would you?"

As they were speaking, urgent footsteps suddenly came from the direction of the door, and Chen Qinghua rushed in quickly from outside, saying solemnly, "It’s bad, someone is attacking our rear."

"Who?"

"It’s people from the Longhu Martial Arts Hall and the Zhu Family, and many other experts, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master is also here. We can’t hold out much longer."

Just as the words fell, a familiar voice rang out suddenly from outside: "Where are He Honggang’s people?"

As that voice reached their ears, the faces of Chen Younian and He Honggang finally changed. At this moment, without needing urging from He Honggang, Chen Younian had already abandoned Ling Gengqiu, and rushed alone towards the door, saying urgently, "Give orders for everyone to retreat immediately!"

Simultaneously, He Honggang suddenly exerted force, leaping out from the encirclement, heading straight for the door rapidly. Seeing both of them gone, Su Cheng’en dared not linger longer, he looked unsatisfied at Ling Gengqiu, saying coldly, "We’ll settle our scores another time." After saying this, he quickly followed He Honggang’s steps.

Once the three of them were gone, Ling Gengqiu finally relaxed, sitting directly on the ground and gasping heavily. Just now, fighting against two consumed a lot of his energy, if Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en hadn’t chosen to give up, he probably wouldn’t have lasted a minute. Not just him, Ling Chen’s situation was similar. Having just suffered repeated attacks, not only was he exhausted, but he was also severely injured in many places. Now relaxing, he felt as if all his strength was drained, his legs weak, he fell directly.

Fortunately, Qiu Yong noticed and promptly supported his body.

At this moment, Tong Zhentian led a large group of people rushing in from outside, seeing Ling Chen and the others safe, everyone couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Soon, all the injured were arranged for treatment, Ling Chen was also carried to his room. Lying on the bed, looking at the crowd around him, Ling Chen touched his nose, smiling bitterly, "I’m not dying, why are you all watching me?"

"Everyone is just concerned about you," Tong Zhentian replied with a smile.

"Elder Tong, didn’t you all evacuate through the escape passage? Why did you come back?"

"Who said we left? We escorted others to safety, then quickly returned, happened to meet Zhu Qing and Family Head Zhu Qian. We discussed and decided to concentrate our forces to attack their periphery. Just then, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master also arrived, and apart from her, there were also Master Hui Yun from Hongshan Temple and Daoist Dan Xuzi. With their additions, our strength surged, Chen Qinghua’s people simply had no power to resist." Speaking of this, Tong Zhentian asked curiously, "Was the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master called by you? Otherwise, how did they appear so timely?"
