Chapter 714: Are You Kidding Me! Someone Actually Helped Him Break Through?

The Taoists had already resigned themselves to the fact that they were on a path to death.

Their bodies were stiff with fear, waiting for the fatal blow, the moment when their heads would fall to the ground.

However—

Out of nowhere, a hidden weapon flew through the air, swift and fierce, gleaming with a chilling, murderous light.

The hidden weapon struck precisely against the blade.

A clang echoed, followed by a sharp buzzing sound!

With a crash, the blade wrapped in spiritual power broke into two halves!

The lead martial artist was knocked back a few steps by the impact, feeling a numbness in his hands.

Someone had stopped him?

Could it be that Cinian and his group had arrived?

He panicked inwardly, but when he turned to look, he saw two figures stepping through the bloodstained ground, slowly climbing the stone steps.

The leader narrowed his eyes and sighed in relief.

It wasn’t Cinian and his group. But who were these two?

That hidden weapon just now had spiritual power, and it was stronger than his own!

The leader didn’t make a rash move. He kept his eyes on the young man ahead.

The young man, carrying a sword case on his back, had a fierce expression and a sharp gaze.

He had reached the bottom of the archway.

When the Taoists saw his face, their eyes widened in surprise and joy.

"Fourth... Fourth Young Master!"

During the snow disaster at the beginning of the year, they had nearly starved to death on the mountain.

It was Chu Yang who had brought them food and saved them.

To their surprise, Chu Yang had appeared today and saved their lives again.

The leader of the martial artists felt a sudden bad premonition. "You’re not a Taoist from Chuyun Temple, who are you? If you’re going to take action, introduce yourself!"

Chu Yang planted his long spear on the ground and said coldly, "Chu Yang."

The martial artists immediately understood that this person was not from the Lower Realm.

But how could he possess spiritual power!

"Chu Yang?" The leader of the martial artists was taken aback. "You’re Nanli’s Fourth Brother!"

Since they were here to raid and plunder in the Human World, they had certainly done their research.

What was going on? Wasn’t the Chu family from the Human World? How could they have all stepped into the path of cultivation?

Hearing his sixth sister’s name, Chu Yang’s eyes became cold. "Who are you? How do you know my sixth sister?"

The leader of the martial artists laughed in a mocking tone. "Fourth Young Master, we were sent by Nanli. These Taoist temples hold many valuable books, and Nanli ordered us to seize them. That way, we can make use of these books."

Chu Yang was enraged.

Who were these scoundrels, daring to tarnish his sixth sister’s reputation!

Before he could retort, the Taoists of Chuyun Temple spoke up one after another, their voices filled with anger:

"Don’t you dare slander the Ninth Princess!"

"The Ninth Princess is kind-hearted and compassionate, how could she be allied with you!"

"That’s right! You don’t even dare show your face, yet you claim to be the Ninth Princess’s subordinate!"

Nanli’s name had long spread throughout Mu Nation, so they couldn’t easily be deceived.

Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

But the leader of the martial artists kicked one of the Taoists to the ground and shouted angrily, "Who told you to speak?!"

He snatched a nearby sword and slashed it toward the Taoist’s throat.

"Stop!" Chu Yang’s face turned grim. As he spoke, his body moved like a streak of fire, flying toward the scene.

He wasn’t holding his long spear.

With a single punch!

The speed and power of his strike were so overwhelming that the martial artists didn’t have time to react.

The leader of the martial artists was knocked down by Chu Yang’s punch!

His head crashed into the ground, splitting the stone slabs beneath.

Blood splattered everywhere.

The leader’s eyes bulged wide, but there was no more sound from him as his body collapsed lifelessly to the ground.

"Big Brother..." the other martial artists were startled. "Big Brother is dead!"

They quickly retreated, not daring to approach Chu Yang.

He was at Qi Refining stage too!

But his spiritual power was several times stronger than theirs!

Strength ruled, and even if they all banded together, they still wouldn’t be a match for Chu Yang.

The Taoists of Chuyun Temple were also stunned but quickly started cheering.

"Fourth Young Master is amazing!"

Chu Yang, however, didn’t let himself get complacent. Instead, his face darkened as he looked at the martial artists.

"Put down everything you’ve taken."

These were Chuyun Temple’s treasured books.

They could not be taken by these lowlifes.

The martial artists hesitated. These books were extremely valuable resources to cultivators. None of them wanted to give up the loot until the very last moment.

But Chu Yang stretched out his hand and grabbed his long spear, thrusting it into the ground.

The earth cracked again, and several fissures spread toward the masked martial artists.

"Not handing them over?" Chu Yang said coldly, "Then I’ll make sure you die even worse!"

He didn’t waste any more words. Holding his long spear, he took a quick step forward.

Though they were all at the same stage of Qi Refining, the aura he released made him seem much more intimidating.

A few brave martial artists tried to stand their ground, but they couldn’t even last one move against Chu Yang and were quickly knocked to the ground, vomiting blood.

They were only at Qi Refining stage and had entered the Human World using Talisman and magical treasures. They didn’t even know how to wield swords. Now they were like sitting ducks, struggling in vain.

"Don’t... don’t kill us!" the masked martial artists begged. "We’ll return everything!"

Saying that, they hastily threw their Qiankun Bags on the ground.

But Chu Yang’s killing intent didn’t waver.

"I’ll leave you with your whole bodies," he said coldly.

Just as he was about to strike, a surge of spiritual energy suddenly struck from the sky.

Chu Yang sensed the danger and quickly dodged, positioning himself in front of the Taoists of Chuyun Temple.

He absorbed the full brunt of the spiritual energy attack.

His chest felt like it was about to explode, and the energy in his Dantian was also trembling.

He grunted, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

The spiritual energy finally subsided.

Between Chu Yang and the masked martial artists stood a man in a blue robe.

The man stood with his hands clasped behind his back, wearing a look of disdain on his face.

Because of his timely appearance, the masked martial artists were overjoyed.

"Young City Lord!"

As soon as they shouted, they realized their mistake.

They were here to kill, burn, and loot, yet they had just revealed the identity of the Young City Lord.

But it didn’t matter. With their victims dead and their souls extinguished, there would be no evidence left.

So, the man in blue simply introduced himself with a smirk.

"I am Meng Lianfeng, Young City Lord of Jade Wolf City. A mere Qi Refining kid like you should kneel before me!"

Chu Yang’s face grew cold. "Who are you? Why should I kneel to you?"

"Tch, just because I’m stronger than you, you should kneel!" Meng Lianfeng sneered and raised his hand, releasing a wave of spiritual pressure.

He was at the early stage of Golden Core, and his spiritual attack was not something these Qi Refining martial artists could resist.

Chu Yang immediately sensed the immense power in that spiritual attack.

Although his meridians throbbed in pain, his face turned pale, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead, his knees didn’t bend.

Meng Lianfeng furrowed his brows, surprised that Chu Yang could withstand it.

He increased his spiritual power, determined to force Chu Yang to kneel.

However, just at that moment, Chu Yang’s Dantian suddenly surged, the spiritual power filling his body, and he let out an angry roar. He felt his strength change dramatically.

The spiritual energy he released was even stronger now, pushing Meng Lianfeng back a step!

"What?" Meng Lianfeng stared in shock.

Zhou Zida, who had been watching from the sidelines, widened his eyes in disbelief, furious and astonished.

"Are you kidding me! Someone actually helped him break through?"

Yes, Chu Yang had actually broken through just now!
