Chapter 17: Ambushing Jia Lie Bi

The discussion in the crowd did not affect Xiao Yan in the slightest. The moment Jia Lie Ao was blasted away, when he couldn't borrow strength in the air, Xiao Yan ran over with an arrow step and slammed his shoulder into Jia Lie Ao, who was flying in the air. This move of Xiao Yan's, 'Mountain-Shaking Collision', could even break trees. After hitting Jia Lie Ao, only a "crack" sound was heard, and this hit broke quite a few more of Jia Lie Ao's bones.

Xiao Yan's impact also caused Jia Lie Ao's body, which was about to land, to be blasted away again. Having practiced with Xun Er for so long, he had learned this combo move of hers only after a long time.

Xiao Yan, adhering to the principle of "taking advantage of your illness to kill you," attacked Jia Lie Ao's neck with an elbow strike, preparing to send Jia Lie Ao to the west. However, this time Xiao Yan felt as if he had hit a hard wall; his elbow was shaken with pain, and his body flew backward, retreating continuously after landing on the ground. Finally, he felt someone push him gently from behind with soft hands, which stopped his figure.

"Brother Xiao Yan, are you hurt?" Xun Er asked with concern.

"Hehe, I'm fine." Xiao Yan smiled. Although his elbow was a bit painful, he clearly felt that the person who made the move had shown mercy, just wanting to push him back.

"Do you still want your face? Two people are dueling fairly, why are you, a Dou Zhe, interfering?" Pei En pointed at the captain of Jia Lie Ao's guard team and shouted.

The three major families of Wutan City had been fighting openly and secretly for many years, all wanting to annex each other to strengthen themselves. Among them, the Jia Lie family and the Xiao family had the most intense struggle, because the businesses of both sides overlapped quite a bit; peers are enemies, so naturally, they didn't like each other. As for the Aoba family, they operated underground businesses, usually just tripping people up and muddling things, adopting a strategy of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.

Dou Qi projection, this was the hallmark of a Great Dou Master.

"Hehe, heavy? I even think it's light!" Xiao Yan sneered. He didn't fear this old thing Jia Lie Bi; although he was a Great Dou Master who could kill him with a flick of a finger, but...

"Humph! This is what you forced me to do." A fierce expression appeared on Jia Lie Bi's face, and he immediately shouted behind Xiao Zhan, "Do it!"

"Stop!" A violent shout sounded, like a thunderclap. Only to see a cyan figure land directly in the center of the two sides' battle, the momentum emanating from his body like a gale, directly causing the people fighting around to retreat repeatedly. Even Xun Er and Xiao Yan in the distance were affected, both retreating two steps before standing firm.

"Account? Account for what? This challenge was initiated by your son, everyone present can testify, and isn't it normal to break arms and legs in a challenge? Besides, your son looks quite complete too!" Xiao Zhan said with a smile.

Seeing Jia Lie Bi attacking, Xiao Yan didn't make any moves, just watched quietly. During this period, Xun Er wanted to counterattack, but Xiao Yan patted her small hand gently, signaling her to be at ease.

"Jia Lie old dog, you've really lived to be a dog, actually attacking a junior." Sure enough, when Jia Lie Bi's fist was about to approach Xiao Yan, a violent shout came from the roof behind Xiao Yan.

"Humph! Today I will teach you this ill-bred brat a lesson on behalf of that old guy Xiao Zhan." Seeing that Xiao Yan wasn't even willing to say polite words and directly mocked him, Jia Lie Bi was naturally furious. He stomped his feet on the ground, his figure attacking Xiao Yan like a gale, his fist clenched, and the surging cyan Dou Qi on it rapidly condensed into a huge cyan vortex.

"Really haven't seen the world, this kind of child's play shocked you? Don't say you're my apprentice in the future, it's too shameful." Yao Lao's contempt sounded in his heart.

"Boom!"

Seeing that their young master had spoken, Pei En didn't dare to be slow and directly commanded the patrol team to kill toward the Jia Lie family guards. The Jia Lie family guards naturally wouldn't sit and wait for death and pulled out their weapons to counterattack. Seeing the guards of the two major families directly fighting, the surrounding people didn't dare to continue watching, fearing they would be implicated, and scattered like birds and beasts, only watching secretly from afar.

"Humph! Just want to try the power of your Xiao family's 'Mountain-Splitting Strike'." Jia Lie Bi snorted coldly, and a huge cyan vortex condensed on his fist again, even larger than the one used against Xiao Yan just now.

"Yan'er, step back, let me teach this old dog a lesson." Xiao Zhan waved his hand to signal Xiao Yan to step back, and a larger lion head condensed on his fist again. Moreover, this time the lion head looked more solid than the previous one, looking lifelike, just like a real one.

"Haha! Jia Lie old dog, I'll say it again. It's your son who is not as skilled as others, can't blame anyone else. If you want to fight, then fight; if you want an account, forget it!" Xiao Zhan laughed loudly, clearly having gained quite a bit of advantage in the previous battle.

Seeing the main person appear, Xiao Yan didn't hide, but walked out generously and said with a smile, "Fair duel, your son is not as skilled as others and was injured by me, do you still want to avenge him?"

"Xiao Zhan, do you really not want to give me an account?" Seeing that he couldn't gain the slightest advantage and was gradually falling into a disadvantage, Jia Lie Bi shouted again.

Seeing his ashamed look, Xiao Yan naturally knew why. If Jia Lie Ao really died here, none of these guards would survive, and of course, their families would be involved. But today was a good opportunity to strike the Jia Lie family, and Xiao Yan wouldn't give up just because of this guard's obstruction.

Everyone in the crowd followed the direction Pei En pointed, and it turned out that the captain of the guard team beside Jia Lie Ao had made a move, and they all showed expressions of contempt.

The red lion head collided fiercely with the cyan fist, producing a huge explosion sound. This sound was no different from a cannonball, making everyone present feel pain in their eardrums.

The guard captain stepped forward with some apology and said, "Sorry, I have a reason I have to make a move, please understand."

"Do it!" Xiao Yan looked at Jia Lie Ao lying on the ground and said to Pei En beside him.

"Hehe, then I have no choice but to ask for advice." Xiao Zhan put away the smile on his face and said with a sneer.

"What if I insist on an account?" Jia Lie Bi pressed step by step, saying gloomily.

Only to see a fiery red figure instantly appear in front of Jia Lie Bi, a huge red lion head condensed on his fist, and he blasted a punch at Jia Lie Bi.

Facing the contemptuous gazes of the people around, the guard captain showed a look of shame on his face. He originally thought his young master could easily beat Xiao Yan. He didn't expect that he would be chased and beaten by Xiao Yan instead. If he didn't make a move, his young master would really be beaten to death by Xiao Yan. If the young master was beaten to death, how could they, these guards, have their lives?

"Humph! It's just sparring, is it necessary to use such a heavy hand?" Jia Lie Bi's face was extremely gloomy, staring coldly at Xiao Yan.

The strength of the two families' guards was about the same, so they naturally fell into a stalemate. Of course, Xiao Yan didn't count on these patrol teams to make contributions; he just wanted to lure someone out. Xiao Yan looked quietly at the people fighting, expressionless.

"Xiao Zhan, your son beat my son to the point of life or death, shouldn't you give me an account?" Seeing that one blow didn't make a contribution, Jia Lie Bi said coldly.

Xiao Yan pulled Xun Er to the distance and looked quietly at the cyan and red figures in front of him colliding rapidly. Each collision would produce a huge sound. This was also the first time Xiao Yan had seen a battle at the Great Dou Master level. Only to see that the stalls on the street were destroyed by the two's fighting. Of course, this was still because the two deliberately controlled it; if they really didn't care about the loss, the houses on both sides of the street would probably collapse.

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and complained in his heart: "You, a Dou Zun powerhouse, watching Great Dou Masters fight, isn't it just child's play? But I'm not even a Dou Zhe!"

The person who came saw Jia Lie Ao lying on the ground motionless like mud, fierce light flashing in his eyes, looked around, and asked, "Who did it? Get out here."

"This is just the destructive power of a Great Dou Master, I really don't know what kind of destructive power Dou Wang, Dou Huang, or even Dou Zun would have." Xiao Yan sighed in his heart.

Only to see a middle-aged man holding a long spear appear behind Xiao Zhan in a flash, blue Dou Qi circling the spear body and gradually forming a huge wave. He raised the spear and stabbed it hard, and the wave surged toward Xiao Zhan rapidly. At this moment, the cyan Dou Qi on Jia Lie Bi's fist also condensed and blasted toward Xiao Zhan's body.

Facing the full-strength attack of two Great Dou Masters, Xiao Zhan didn't dare to be the slightest bit slow, rapidly operating the Dou Qi in his body, fists clenched, and red lion heads gradually condensed on his fists. He used both fists to attack left and right, and the two huge lion heads seemed to open their mouths at this moment, desperately biting toward the blue giant wave and the cyan fist shadow, wanting to break these two attacks. But they were still forcibly blocked by the giant wave and the cyan fist shadow, and the scene fell into a stalemate.
