Chapter 185: He is her Prince Charming on a White Horse
Once a Five Boundaries star-space alien species dies, the other star-space alien species are no longer a major threat.
After the Murong clan's people slaughtered again, they thoroughly swept away the obstacles.
Murong Zhan took out a flying vessel, preparing to bring everyone away.
Suddenly,
Accompanied by a long whistle, several figures rushed out from their hiding place.
The leader among them was Wang Feng.
As soon as Wang Feng attacked, without a word, he directly charged at Murong Zhan.
Villains often die because they talk too much.
The Wang clan often robbed and plundered at ancient road junctions, so they naturally knew the principle of swift battle and swift decision.
So, when Wang Feng made a move, he spared no effort, unleashing his peak strike.
"Boom!"
But Wang Feng's strike still failed to kill Murong Zhan.
Because Murong Wan activated a fifth-grade defensive talisman, blocking him.
"Hah!"
Wang Feng's expression remained unchanged; he fiercely slashed his battle blade, and the light curtain of the fifth-grade defensive talisman immediately showed countless cracks, appearing about to break.
At the same time, three Wang clan Four Boundaries cultivators descended around them, forming an encirclement that surrounded the Murong clan's people.
"Wang Feng!!!"
Murong Zhan's expression changed drastically.
"Not bad, it's me, Murong Zhan. Don't blame me for being ruthless; who let you give birth to such a heaven-defying daughter?"
Wang Feng said coldly.
While speaking, he struck again.
"Crack!"
The light curtain of the fifth-grade defensive talisman shattered completely.
"Die!"
Wang Feng raised his battle blade.
"What does it matter if it's the Five Boundaries!"
Murong Zhan, who was already exhausted, suddenly surged with aura, bursting forth with strength comparable to the Five Boundaries in a short time.
This burst of his actually blocked Wang Feng.
"I didn't expect you to have such a secret technique, but how long can you hold out!"
Wang Feng showed no panic at all.
Murong Zhan's secret technique that can boost strength in a short time cannot possibly last long.
Moreover, activating it once comes at a huge cost; once its duration ends, his combat power will surely drop greatly.
By then, it will be Murong Zhan's time of death.
"Wan'er, run quickly!"
Murong Zhan shouted loudly.
He erupted with this secret technique solely to give Murong Wan a chance to escape.
Murong Wan hesitated not; with Qin Baoshan's cooperation, she used talismans to clear a path, intending to break out of the encirclement.
This is not her being cold-blooded, disregarding her father's life or death.
Quite the opposite, this is actually the wisest course of action.
Wang Feng's strength is too great, and the Murong clan's people have also been greatly depleted.
Her trump cards have also been excessively depleted.
At this point, her staying here would be useless and would instead lead to the total annihilation of the army.
Therefore, her best choice is to escape.
If she could successfully escape, Wang Feng might not dare to kill Murong Zhan, giving her father a sliver of hope.
"Want to leave?"
The three Wang clan Four Boundaries cultivators each employed their trump cards, blocking Murong Wan.
"Murong Tian, what are you doing!"
Qin Baoshan was furious.
Because Murong Tian suddenly attacked him, inflicting severe injuries.
"Tian'er, you actually dare... puff..."
Murong Zhan flew into a rage.
This rage, Wang Feng seized the opportunity and beat him until he vomited blood.
"Uncle, you're too old; you should make way for the younger generation."
Murong Tian revealed a smile.
After pretending for so many years, at last he can show his true face.
At last, he can avenge his father.
Yes.
Over these years, with accumulated dissatisfaction, he came to regard Murong Zhan as his father's killer.
"Tian'er, if you want the position of family head, I'll give it to you anytime, you... puff..."
Murong Zhan vomited blood again.
"Fighting me, you dare to be distracted—die!"
Inside Wang Feng's body, all secret stores erupted.
A blade condensed with terrifying power slashed down fiercely.
This strike, Murong Zhan absolutely cannot block.
"Father!"
Murong Wan had no more trump cards.
The fifth-grade talisman Lu Xun gave her, she has used up.
The sole sixth-grade battle pill, she used it against the fifth-realm aberration.
It looked like Murong Zhan was about to be killed.
Suddenly,
Accompanied by a cold glint, over a dozen flying swords suddenly appeared, attacking Wang Feng from all angles.
Wang Feng's eyelid twitched, and he forcibly sheathed his blade.
"Ding ding ding ding~"
Amidst the blade shadows filling the sky, all the flying swords were blocked by Wang Feng.
"Be careful..."
"Ah..."
The other three fourth-realm Wang family members weren't so lucky.
Two of the fourth-realm managed to block the flying swords, but another newly promoted fourth-realm was pierced by a flying sword and suffered heavy injuries.
"Father!"
Taking this opportunity, Murong Wan hurriedly pulled Murong Zhan back.
"Boom!"
Murong Tian was sent flying by a punch from Qin Baoshan; before he landed, Qin Baoshan stomped him heavily onto the ground with a foot.
Even though Murong Tian wore battle armor, Qin Baoshan's foot still broke several of his bones.
As a fourth-realm grandmaster, his grasp of battle opportunities remained very keen.
Although he didn't know who sent the flying swords, it was clearly attacking the Wang family; if he didn't seize the chance to deal with Murong Tian, he would be unworthy of being a fourth-realm grandmaster.
As for Murong Tian's younger brother Murong Chui, he also couldn't escape; he was knocked unconscious by a punch from Qin Baoshan.
"Wang family business, why are you interfering, friend?"
After blocking the flying swords, Wang Feng retreated a few steps, warily looking around while holding his battle blade.
The person who made the move has not yet appeared.
But the flying swords have risen again, hovering in midair, their tips pointed at the Wang family members.
Around each of the Wang family's three fourth-realm cultivators hovered several flying swords, making them dare not move.
They feared that any movement would trigger the swords to attack.
The scene fell into a stalemate for a moment.
"It's over."
The Wang family patriarch's face was full of worry.
The Wang family's actions have been discovered.
Moreover, the discoverer is so powerful, likely a fifth-realm cultivator.
This is not going to end well.
Fortunately, there are still casualties, so there may yet be room for reconciliation.
Wang Feng probably also realized this, which is why he didn't strike again.
"I've long heard that your Wang family members are shameless; seeing them today, they truly live up to the reputation."
A faint voice sounded.
Everyone looked toward the direction of the voice and saw a small flying shuttle emerge from the canyon cliff.
On the flying shuttle stood a man and a woman.
The man wore a dark black long robe, with a simple silver-patterned undershirt; his tall, straight posture stood at the front of the shuttle, his robe's hem lifted by the mountain wind into a sharp arc.
The woman wore a moon-white long dress, which made her skin like smooth jade and her brows and eyes like a painting.
"Youqing?"
"Lu Xun!"
"Chu Youqing???"
"Who is he?"
The gazes of everyone present were drawn, without prior agreement, to the two figures on the flying shuttle.
Murong Zhan, Murong Tian, and others immediately recognized Chu Youqing, their eyes naturally falling on her.
Murong Wan's gaze, however, swept past the crowd and fixed directly on the tall figure at the front of the shuttle—Lu Xun.
Her eyes suddenly brightened, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved upward in delight.
She hadn't expected,
that in this desperate situation, there would actually be such a turning point.
He has come...
At this moment, in Murong Wan's eyes, Lu Xun seemed to tread upon radiance as he arrived, practically the epitome of handsomeness.
He seemed to have become the great hero of a film or drama, and like the prince on a white horse in a fairy tale, always able to descend from the heavens at the heroine's most perilous moment.
Murong Wan's heart, against her will, began to thump wildly, and an indescribable flutter surged within her chest.
No,
This isn't a fairy tale.
But he really did become the prince on a white horse from her childhood dreams.
