The Danyang Sect’s Sword Array was instantly broken.
In that brief mont, many disciples of the Danyang Sect had already been killed or wounded. Song Lingjun was furious, suddenly drew his sword, and roared, "Beidou Bang wants a war? Danyang Sect disciples, heed my command—kill them all!"
In an instant,
hundreds of Danyang Sect disciples all surged forward into the fray.
Gu Zhan reached out his hand,
and Tian Yu, who’d been following him all along, swiftly took out the Jade Bone Saber and handed it to Gu Zhan.
With the long saber in his grasp, Gu Zhan let out a cold laugh, then bellowed, "Protector Xiao, can you fight?"
Standing by the manor gates, Xiao Chen was like a mountain, already unable to quell the restlessness inside him. Both iron hamrs struck together with a crash like thunder, deafening many instantly. He threw back his head and roared with laughter, "Younger Brother Gu, leave that brat Song Lingjun to !"
Before the words had even faded, Xiao Chen stomped hard on the ground, leaving a deep pit where he stood. He shot up into the air, both massive hamrs swinging toward Song Lingjun, like a mountain plumting from the sky.
The two Grandmasters clashed in an instant.
"Good! As for all that riffraff, I’ll cut them down myself!"
The Jade Bone Saber in Gu Zhan’s hand rang out with a low hum as he dashed into the midst of the Danyang Sect disciples, slaughtering as he went.
At the sa ti,
the Death God Battalion of the Embroidered Uniform Guard changed formation once more. All the guards leapt onto their horses, unsheathing their Brocade Spring Sabers in perfect unison. The dazzling blades glead with cold light, hooves thundered across the ground.
At that mont,
the Beidou Bang mbers inside and outside the manor were still struggling to catch up with what was happening,
when an Elder shouted in a loud voice, "Beidou Bang disciples, heed my command! The Danyang Sect dares cause trouble at our doorstep—will Beidou Bang let others bully us? Kill!"
At that cry, the upper ranks charged into the fight first,
and at the sa ti, dense ranks of Beidou Bang mbers surged out to join the battle.
A massive war erupted!
...
At this mont, the people from the various major sects who had co to watch were all at a loss,
because this wasn’t what they had imagined,
They’d all thought there would be so kind of spectacle to see, but now the spectacle was far greater than anyone expected; it’d gotten completely out of hand.
As far as they were concerned,
whether Danyang Sect or Beidou Bang, both were top-level factions. Stirring up either would shake the whole Martial World; there was no way they would simply start fighting over nothing, especially now, in the midst of the righteous–demonic war. They should be even more restrained.
Besides, this was the Sect Leader of Danyang visiting in person,
even for the sake of reputation alone,
Beidou Bang would at least treat them with courtesy.
Normally, they’d just argue their positions, maybe trade so insults, and in the end, soone neutral would diate a compromise.
The standard thod in the Martial World would be for underlings to have a formal duel—whoever lost would back down a step,
Almost no one was willing to go straight to war over matters like this.
Even small sects rarely did so,
let alone two major powers like this.
But now, everything had gone entirely beyond expectations!
...
In the mayhem, Xiao Chen fully showcased his renown as Funeral God, the two mighty hamrs, each weighing hundreds of pounds, whirled with thunderous force.
Both were Grandmasters in the Second Realm of Divine Thought,
and at the first clash, Song Lingjun was imdiately suppressed by Xiao Chen. The impact of their fight shattered building after building.
Song Lingjun’s expression looked terrible,
His Martial Arts path was completely different from Xiao Chen’s. Xiao Chen favored brute force and direct assaults, but such a style’s greatest flaw was that it couldn’t last—drag it out, and he’d quickly lose ground. Song Lingjun, by contrast, was all about steadiness and balance, growing stronger the longer a fight dragged on and gradually seizing the advantage.
So, in a one-on-one match, he wasn’t truly afraid of Xiao Chen,
for Xiao Chen’s flaws were too obvious—as long as Song Lingjun exhausted him, he’d be certain of victory. What’s more, Xiao Chen was already in his sixties or seventies, long past his pri, while Song Lingjun was still robust and in his pri, with every advantage on his side.
But, the current circumstances were different,
This battle was destined not to drag on until one side prevailed.
Now, hemd in by Xiao Chen, he had no way to help anyone else.
anwhile, Gu Zhan was like a killing machine, plowing into the Danyang Sect disciples and leaving a trail of blood wherever he went.
"Xiao Chen, is Beidou Bang set on a fight to the death?" Song Lingjun shouted as he dodged and retreated.
Xiao Chen ignored him completely, continuing his brutal assault.
Furious, Song Lingjun looked out to see Gu Zhan slaughtering across the square, and yelled at an Elder, "Stop tangling with the others! Surround Gu Zhan and kill that brat!"
At once, several Danyang Sect Elders abandoned their foes and charged at Gu Zhan.
But the elite fighters of Beidou Bang weren’t about to let the Danyang Sect surround Gu Zhan. They quickly split up and intercepted the Danyang experts.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Gu Zhan’s face,
This was truly rare,
Ever since he entered the Martial World, every major battle he’d fought was a losing fight—never once had he fought with such ease as today.
He slashed down a Danyang Sect disciple, casually wiped the blood from his face, and looked to Xiao Chen, who was locked in combat with Song Lingjun in the distance. Then he roared, "Protector Xiao! Hold off Song Lingjun for half a stick of incense! I’ll slaughter every one of Danyang Sect’s worthless curs!"
As soon as the words fell,
Gu Zhan’s figure ripped through the crowd like a specter—wherever he passed, a crimson mist was left trailing behind him, like a rainbow. More than a dozen heads sailed into the air,
Before the heads could hit the ground,
Gu Zhan had already appeared before a Danyang Sect Great Cultivator.
In that mont, his saber fell,
severing the Great Cultivator’s arm at once. Then, with a backhand, he brought his blade down on the man’s head,
In that instant,
