CHAPTER 558: CHAPTER 0477: CRITICAL MOMENT

The five members of "Seven Kills" stood in a line, glaring fiercely, and Huang Zhou felt the pressure on his body suddenly increase.

He was no match for any one of the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain alone, let alone all four appearing together, plus Old Man Hei?

"I never expected that to kill a little girl, ’Seven Kills’ would go all out!"

At this moment, a voice came from a distance. The members of Seven Kills turned their heads to see Huang Zhan Yuan approaching casually, with his hands behind his back.

Four elderly men in their fifties or sixties followed him, each dressed in gray cloth clothes. Their breathing was even, and even their steps were without the slightest discrepancy.

"Huang Zhan Yuan? You really came!"

Old Man Hei’s eyes showed deeper dread, and his voice was low.

Huang Zhan Yuan, the Sect Leader of the Huang Family, had reached the Peak of War General realm years ago and was just a step away from the War King Realm. His Triple Stacking Palm had been refined to the highest level in the Huang Family’s history, the "Yangtze Threefold Waves" level, making his combat power immeasurable.

Even the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain four assassins’ expressions sharpened. In "Seven Kills," only the Sect Leader Mu Tanlang could match Huang Zhan Yuan.

Behind Huang Zhan Yuan were the four Great Elders of the Huang Family. This time, he specially brought them from Jiangnan to stop "Seven Kills."

His gaze fell on the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain and Old Ghost Hei, and he said indifferently, "With just the five of you, it’s not enough. Call out Mu Tanlang!"

"Haha!"

The birds and beasts in the forest scattered, countless shadowy crows flew into the sky, followed by a long laugh. A black figure leaped from the woods into the sky, spun a few times, and landed heavily on the ground, cracking the ring road beneath him.

"Sect Leader!"

This person appeared, and both the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain and Old Man Hei bowed with fists cupped. The newcomer was Mu Tanlang.

"Huang Zhan Yuan, I didn’t expect that old bastard Bei Changlin could actually move you!"

Mu Tanlang sneered, his voice sinister.

"Ridiculous, Bei Yin Yao is my designated granddaughter-in-law. How can I allow you ’Seven Kills’ to mess around?"

Huang Zhan Yuan was unmoved, speaking coldly.

"Granddaughter-in-law?"

Mu Tanlang did not expect this layer of relationship between Bei Yin Yao and the Huang Family, but no matter what, he was determined to claim Bei Yin Yao’s life.

"Huang Zhan Yuan, since both of us are here, let’s settle this with martial arts. If I win, you immediately leave, and Bei Yin Yao’s life belongs to me!"

Mu Tanlang proposed.

"Humph, let’s talk about it after you win!"

Huang Zhan Yuan spread his palm, already accumulating energy within. The airflow around his palm swirled like rolling waves, layer upon layer, wave upon wave, displaying the opening move of the Triple Stacking Palm.

"I’ll play with Huang Zhan Yuan. You guys go and test the skills of the four Great Elders of the Huang Family!"

Mu Tanlang stomped his foot, dust and smoke rose all around, powerful spiritual power exploded, and countless gravel shot out, rushing towards Huang Zhan Yuan.

At the same time, the four assassins of the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain had already rushed forward, and the four Great Elders of the Huang Family stepped forward with identical strides, bravely facing them.

"Old man, it’s just the two of us left!"

Huang Zhou saw his elders all in action. His spirits surged, and he was naturally unwilling to fall behind. Especially since there were three stunning beauties sitting in the Extended Lincoln behind him, he naturally wanted to perform well.

"Since you want to fight, I’ll accompany you to the end!"

Old Man Hei let out a sinister laugh, and Huang Zhou charged forward like a fierce tiger. The two instantly engaged in battle.

On the ring road, there were almost no cars. Amidst the shadows intertwining, explosions resounded endlessly. Bai Wan’er, An Ruoqing, and Bei Yinyao sat trembling in the car, not daring even to open the door.

"Wan’er, hurry up and call Ye Qingfeng over!"

An Ruoqing had a flash of inspiration, urging Bai Wan’er.

Bai Wan’er finally reacted, taking out her phone to dial.

Upon hearing this name, Bei Yinyao’s heart trembled violently, but she was also very puzzled.

All the people outside were martial arts masters, none of whom could be compared to her bodyguard Sister Mei.

Even though Ye Qingfeng was very strong and reacted quickly, and had helped her avoid two assassination attempts, facing these martial arts experts was like a cup of water to a burning cart, nearly useless.

Calling Ye Qingfeng over would only endanger him. What could he possibly do?

Bei Yinyao would rather die than let Ye Qingfeng be drawn into such a vortex of chaos due to her, so she wanted to stop Bai Wan’er from making the call.

Unexpectedly, Bai Wan’er suddenly said, "I can’t get through, there’s no signal!"

She had a few moments of fear on her face; at this moment, the phone screen showed no service.

An Ruoqing also took out her phone to check and found no signal either, throwing the two girls into a panic.

"No, don’t worry, he’ll find us!"

Bai Wan’er patted An Ruoqing’s shoulder to comfort her, as she had unusual confidence in Ye Qingfeng.

Bei Yinyao frowned slightly and questioned, "If he comes, won’t he be putting himself in danger? Don’t you understand how terrifying these people are?"

Bai Wan’er smiled slightly, without giving much explanation, while An Ruoqing sighed, "He’s really strong and won’t fear these people."

Bei Yinyao shook her head and gave a bitter smile, feeling that Bai Wan’er and An Ruoqing didn’t understand the martial arts world and didn’t grasp how frightening the abilities of these people outside truly were.

She prayed silently, hoping Ye Qingfeng wouldn’t appear here. She’d rather die than let him face mortal danger because of her, for Ye Qingfeng was her beloved "wood," and she didn’t want him to suffer even a tiny bit of harm.

"Bang!"

Outside the car, the battle was intense. Huang Zhan Yuan and Mu Tanlang had similar cultivation levels and were well-matched opponents. Their speed and internal strength were extremely close.

Their bodies rose and fell, flickering and flashing. Every time their palms clashed, they left a dent on the ground. The previously good ring road was now riddled with holes, and gravel flew in all directions.

The battle between the Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain four assassins and the four Great Elders of the Huang Family was also in its fierce stage. The Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain’s moves were vicious and swift like a fierce wind, but the four Great Elders’ aura was strong and unified in attack and defense, leaving both sides at a standstill.

Only Huang Zhou firmly held the upper hand, full of vigor. Old Man Hei was being pushed back step by step, and his defeat was only a matter of time.

At this moment, the three women in Bai Wan’er’s car suddenly noticed a figure appear outside the car door, and they were instantly terrified, their faces turning pale.

A slender hand was placed on the car window, knocking gently. Bai Wan’er was taken aback, then saw a handsome and unparalleled young face.

"Ye Qingfeng?"

Bai Wan’er and An Ruoqing immediately broke into smiles. No matter how fierce the battle outside or how dangerous the situation, with Ye Qingfeng’s appearance, they felt incomparably safe.

Bei Yinyao was first delighted but then worried.

Although the battle outside was chaotic, it was because she was still there. If she opened the door and tried to escape, the members of "Seven Kills" would surely stop fighting and chase after her. At that point, Ye Qingfeng would also become the target of everyone.
