Looking down from above, his gaze finally landed on Yan Zhaoge, "As expected, you've come. Let's see where you can run off to this time."
"Yan Zhaoge, how dare you."
"First, you shielded my Sacred Sun Clan's traitor disciple, and now you actually dare to kill a disciple of my Sacred Sun Clan."
"You must pay with your life for Xiao Shen's!"
Being stared at by the other party, Yan Zhaoge's entire body heated up, feeling as though his internal organs were on fire, as though his entire body was about to combust.
Yan Zhaoge's expression did not change, "What you mean is that I have to obediently stretch out my neck and let Xiao Shen kill me?"
"Xiao Shen wants to kill me, so I kill him. It's that simple."
The one-eyed Elder raised his eyebrows, a fierce light appearing in his eyes.
Looking at his expression, it was as though if the person before him was not Broad Creed Mountain's Yan Zhaoge, but a martial practitioner from a small clan, dying at the hands of his Sacred Sun Clan would be an honour.
The other party stared coldly at Yan Zhaoge, "Oh?"
"Then this old man will also kill you now. I want to see what you can do. Can you kill this old man?"
Yan Zhaoge smiled, not saying a word.
A voice resounded from behind, "You can't kill him."
Amidst the surging winds and clouds, a powerful aura appeared.
A figure walked through the air. When he had first spoken, he had still been quite a distance away, but before his words had landed, he had already neared.
It was a wizened old man, his hands behind his back, his footsteps neither fast nor slow.
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Elder, I'll be troubling you."
The wizened old man waved his hands, "It's fine."
He came before the one-eyed Elder, saying mildly, "This old man also wants to see how you will kill my Broad Creed Mountain disciple in front of this old man."
Seeing this wizened old man appear, Xu Chuan instantly let out a sigh of relief, "Our clan's reinforcements have also arrived."
"Young Master Yan indeed won't take the risk lightly. Everything he does, he has a card up his sleeve."
The Sacred Sun Clan's reinforcements had entered the Eastern Tang Kingdom.
Having received the news that Yan Zhaoge had killed Xiao Shen, Broad Creed Mountain naturally wouldn't sit idly by.
It was just that both sides needed some time to react.
In comparison, while the Eastern Tang Kingdom was still in the Heaven Domain, it would still be easier for Broad Creed Mountain's reinforcements to arrive.
However, the two sides were currently fighting on the battlefield, and it was difficult to distinguish one from the other.
As for how one could accurately judge the other's movements and determine the other's position, that would depend on the strength of the respective powers in the Eastern Tang.
From this perspective, with Zhao Yuan having met with danger and Yan Zhaoge having been ambushed, Yan Xu at the very least had to bear the responsibility of not doing his job properly and not being able to properly investigate the enemy.
Xu Chuan felt a slight chill in his heart. "Did Yan Xu really do it on purpose?"
"He's gone mad. Even if he argues that it was just a mistake, he still has to bear some responsibility!"
However, what caused Xu Chuan to let out a sigh of relief was the fact that Yan Zhaoge had indeed long since been prepared for this. Taking the risk, he had gambled correctly.
Looking at the Broad Creed Mountain Martial Grandmaster opposite him, that Sacred Sun Clan Elder said coldly, "Our cultivation levels are similar; can you protect him?"
As he spoke, he raised his palm. The golden sunlight that filled the sky converged into a ball and gathered in the center of his palm.
Then, he slammed his palm down as if he was lifting up a sun and smashing it down!
For him to execute the Heaven Striking Palm, it would be even more powerful than that Martial Grandmaster of the Sacred Sun Clan of the Spirit Wind Canyon!
Zhao Yuan and the others present were extremely nervous.
Just as the one-eyed Elder had said, with both sides having similar levels of strength, one side wanting to kill, the other wanting to protect.
The protector would be placed in an absolutely disadvantageous position, with the initiative being in the hands of the enemy.
It was even possible that, because he was focused on protecting the target, he would be unable to attend to one thing and lose sight of the other, revealing a flaw in his defense, allowing the enemy to take advantage of it, causing him to lose himself instead.
At that time, the protector and the person being protected would both become fish on the chopping board of the enemy, only able to die on the spot.
That emaciated Elder's expression, however, was calm and unhurried, "Since this old man has appeared here, I have the confidence to protect the safety of my clan's disciples by myself."
"I dare not say much, but if it's just you, then it would indeed not be a problem."
As he said this, that emaciated Elder crossed his palms, the center of his palms turning a faint golden colour.
Numerous palm shadows spread out, enveloping the surrounding area. Numerous golden streaks of light intermingled in the air, resembling numerous golden ropes, binding the heavens and grabbing the earth.
As the Heaven Striking Palm of the Sacred Sun Clan Elder descended, it was trapped by those numerous golden ropes.
The extremely tough, extremely fierce palm was also unceasingly worn down by the extremely soft, extremely tough force, unable to break free.
"Golden Canopy Palm?" The one-eyed Elder instantly raised his brows.
The martial art that the other party was executing was precisely Broad Creed Mountain's direct lineage, the Golden Canopy Palm of the Eight Extreme Arts.
Watching from the side, Yan Zhaoge also nodded, thinking, "Nearing the point of perfection."
In the Sealing Dragon Abyss, Yan Zhaoge had also seen Elder Kong execute this martial art. It had been even more profound and unfathomable, but that had mostly been because Elder Kong's cultivation base had been higher.
In terms of attainments in the Golden Canopy Palm alone, this emaciated Elder could already be said to be at the peak amongst those of the same cultivation level.
After executing the Golden Canopy Palm, the emaciated Elder's figure abruptly shook, resembling an ethereal, distant breeze, swift and agile.
This was yet another supreme martial art of the Eight Extreme Arts, the Wind Fire Calamities.
The Fire Calamity exerting force, the Wind Calamity movement technique.
At this moment, the emaciated Elder had even completely sealed off the path of his opponent's sneak attack with the Leap of the Rising Sun.
That Sacred Sun Clan Elder was enraged to the point of erupting.
The other party's strength was similar to his, but his fighting style was extremely flexible, causing him to be unable to exert his strength.
It would be very difficult for the emaciated Elder to defeat him, but he also had no way of breaking through his defences.
Let alone victory, even if he wanted to deal with Yan Zhaoge and the others, he could only stare helplessly.
"Zhaoge, you guys leave this place first," The emaciated Elder said mildly as he dispelled his opponent's attacks.
Yan Zhaoge and the others immediately retreated. With the two Martial Grandmasters going all out in their battle, just the aftershocks alone would be able to sweep through and destroy the surrounding area.
However, they had not gone far when an irascible, ear-splitting voice suddenly resounded, "You can't leave!"
Hearing this voice, Yan Zhaoge instantly raised his brows.
"The Ghost Hatchet Elder, Han Sheng!"
"Under such a situation, he actually dares to appear?"
As the black fog surged, an old man with long hair and beard suddenly appeared.
His terrifying aura was not inferior to that of the two Martial Grandmasters currently clashing here in the slightest.
It was precisely the Ghost Hatchet Elder, Han Sheng, who had briefly appeared in the Sealing Dragon Abyss back then and was somewhat related to Ye Jing.
As the Ghost Hatchet Elder Han Sheng appeared, his gaze also fell on Yan Zhaoge.
Looking over, Yan Zhaoge saw that within the other party's gaze, other than irascibility, there was also some greed and probing.
"He wants a certain thing on me," Yan Zhaoge's thoughts flashed at lightning speed as he instantly came up with a guess.
Not thinking carefully, Han Sheng had already let out an enraged roar, extending his palm as black qi agglomerated, a massive hand that obscured the heavens and concealed the sun grabbing down towards Yan Zhaoge's head.
The emaciated Elder instantly frowned as he executed the Wind Fire Calamities, his figure turning as he blocked before Han Sheng.
His Golden Curtain Palm expanded, instantly enveloping Han Sheng within as well.
However, with him having to attend to one thing, the pressure on the Sacred Sun Clan Elder on the other side was instantly reduced greatly.
Executing the Leap of the Rising Sun, he forcibly bypassed the obstruction of the emaciated Elder's Golden Curtain Palm, shooting towards Yan Zhaoge!
Xu Chuan's heart thumped as he looked at Yan Zhaoge with a pale face.
