Chapter 339

"Brother Xu, please make a move and help us defeat this strong enemy."

Li Shun's loud shout startled everyone, and Gao Peng and Gu Haoming revealed looks of pleasant surprise.

Although the person intercepting and killing them was at the Major Success Gang Qi level, they hadn't broken through long ago, and the three of them could barely resist.

If Xu Yang were added to the mix, self-preservation wouldn't be a problem.

They weren't people who valued money over their lives; it was just that after this person arrived, they didn't say a word and started killing with their fists, leaving them no choice but to resist fiercely.

"Brother Xu, please make a move; we will share one of the Ten-Complete Great Replenishment Pills we bid for with you," Gu Haoming shouted.

His clothes were stained with blood, and his hair was disheveled.

Among the three, his injuries were the most severe.

The man in black seemed to have a grudge against him, as he kept attacking him primarily.

He directly offered terms; he didn't want to be like Li Shun, who wanted someone with no friendship to risk their life for nothing. He would rather share a Ten-Complete Great Replenishment Pill with Xu Yang than be beaten to death and have the pills robbed.

The man in black also took a moment to look back at Xu Yang, his gaze fierce, as if warning Xu Yang not to meddle in other people's business.

"Interesting!" A smile curled at the corners of Xu Yang's mouth.

Although the man in black was masked and his fist techniques and moves were deliberately hidden to conceal his roots,

he had already reached Marrow Cleansing, and his five senses were inconceivable; he had already recognized the identity of the man in black through his aura.

Lu Ren!

The person intercepting and killing Gu Haoming, Li Shun, and Gao Peng was none other than Lu Ren, who hadn't attended the auction.

He had thought Lu Ren had entered the Yunling Mountain Range and that was why he hadn't attended the auction; it turned out he had planned to intercept and kill Gu Haoming halfway.

"If Brother Xu is not satisfied, all the pills are yours; I only ask that you save our lives."

Seeing that Xu Yang didn't speak and had no intention of making a move, Gu Haoming became anxious, a look of hatred flashing in the depths of his eyes.

He could offer any terms; once the man in black was defeated, whether he gave them or not was another matter.

He had already made up his mind that once the man in black was defeated, he would settle old scores with Xu Yang.

"Brother Xu, if we are killed, he won't let you go either; you also bid for two stalks of Pure Yang Grass," Gao Peng said.

He knew that any promise was fake; facing a Major Success Gang Qi expert, few people dared to take the risk. The only way was to turn the man in black into a common enemy, so that Xu Yang would have no choice but to make a move.

Therefore, he directly told the man in black that Xu Yang also had valuable items on him, and if they were killed, he shouldn't let him go either.

In this way, Xu Yang would either have to make a move with them or wait to be killed by the man in black after they were killed.

"Seeking death!"

Killing intent flared in Xu Yang's eyes, and he intended to make a move and kill everyone.

But just at this moment, footsteps suddenly reached his ears; looking back, he saw Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan walking over from the distance with long strides.

The two of them had clearly heard the commotion here, and their speed was not slow; in two or three breaths, they arrived behind him.

Xu Yang could only sigh that Gu Haoming's luck was truly good; several times he had intended to kill Gu Haoming, only to be interrupted by accidents.

This was why, whenever he wanted to kill someone, he would lure them into the mountain forest; fighting on the main road made it too easy to be bumped into.

"Brother Jiang, save us!"

Gu Haoming and the other two also saw the appearance of Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan and immediately shouted for help.

Lu Ren looked back and saw it was Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan; he didn't dare to gamble that the two would stand by and watch them die, so he immediately forced Gu Haoming back with a punch and transformed into a black shadow, disappearing into the mountain forest.

"Brother Jiang, Senior Brother Jiang!" The killing intent on Xu Yang's body receded, and he cupped his fists toward Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan.

"Brother Xu!"

Jiang Fan smiled and cupped his hands, while Jiang Yan only nodded lightly: "We seem to have come at a bad time."

The killing intent on Xu Yang's body could deceive others, but it couldn't deceive him, an inner sect disciple.

However, whether that killing intent was directed at Gu Haoming and the others or at the man in black, he didn't know.

"I have seen the Young Marquis; many thanks to Senior Brother Jiang for making a move."

Gu Haoming and the other two didn't dare to be negligent, dragging their injured bodies over to express their thanks.

Jiang Yan shook his head: "No need to thank me; that person was scared away by himself; I didn't intend to save you."

Once these words were spoken, Gu Haoming and the other two looked incredibly awkward; they had misread the situation.

Jiang Fan frowned: "Brother Yan..."

He was a warm-hearted person; Jiang Yan didn't intend to make a move, but he had no intention of standing by and watching; he had rushed over specifically to save people.

It was just that the man in black had slipped away too quickly, and he hadn't even had the chance to make a move.

Jiang Yan curled his lip and didn't speak again.

They were both from the Jiang family, so he naturally knew Jiang Fan's character; he had absolutely no airs of a Young Marquis.

Even after experiencing the incident with Xiao Ya, his personality hadn't changed much; if it weren't for people who knew him, who would know that the future Young Marquis of the Jiang family was such a person.

"Are you all alright?" Jiang Fan asked with concern.

Gu Haoming and the other two hurriedly shook their heads: "Many thanks to the Young Marquis for your concern; we only suffered some internal injuries, and we will be fine after resting for a few days."

Jiang Fan nodded: "It's good that you're alright; follow us up the mountain."

Gu Haoming and the other two hurriedly expressed their thanks, and the group continued toward the Profound Heaven Sect.

After walking a kilometer or two, more Profound Heaven Sect disciples were being intercepted and killed ahead; Jiang Fan didn't say a word and went straight to kill them.

Jiang Yan was helpless and followed to kill as well; with two great Marrow Cleansing martial artists making a move, the few people intercepting and killing were beaten to pieces in an instant.

Xu Yang had originally thought that someone with Jiang Fan's personality wouldn't be ruthless, but he hadn't expected him to be quite vicious; even when someone begged for mercy, he didn't hesitate to beat them to death.

After the three who were saved expressed their thanks, they untied the black cloth on the faces of these men in black, revealing several young faces.

"They are all disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect!" Someone recognized their identities.

"Killing our own people; this Profound Heaven Sect is rotten to the core, and the whole world is rotten to the core," Jiang Fan shouted: "Noble families are entrenched, powerful clans are everywhere, the people are living in misery, and the dynasty has reached its end.

Just wait for that one to die, and the world will see heroes rise together."

Many people felt cold sweat breaking out; such treasonous words were something only Jiang Fan dared to say.

Not to mention the world, just talking about the problems of the Profound Heaven Sect, every outer sect disciple knew they were just cattle and horses, but no one had ever dared to complain a single word.

If the Profound Heaven Sect cared even a little about the life and death of outer sect disciples, how many people would dare to intercept and kill their own people on this road?

"Watch your words!" Jiang Yan shouted.

Immediately afterward, his gaze swept coldly over everyone, and a powerful aura radiated from his body, pressing down until everyone's faces turned pale and they retreated in discomfort.

Xu Yang's whole body was tense; half of it was an act, and half was being startled by the pressure radiated by Jiang Yan, forcing him to distance himself from Jiang Yan to prevent him from suddenly making a move.

He knew Jiang Fan was special, but he hadn't expected him to be special to this extent, saying such things in public.

"Brother Yan, what are you doing?"

Jiang Fan sensed the killing intent on Jiang Yan's body and stepped in front of him.

Jiang Yan took a deep breath and said angrily: "You are reckless; do you know that if these words you said were to spread, my Jiang family would be wiped out to the last person?"

For others to say such things was a crime punishable by the extermination of their clan, let alone for the future Young Marquis.

The dynasty couldn't control the whole world, but killing a Marquis's mansion to establish authority was something they could do.

Jiang Fan's expression changed, and he growled: "Let them go; I won't say it again next time."

Blood spilled from the corners of Gu Haoming's mouth, and he squeezed out an expression uglier than crying: "Senior Brother Jiang, rest assured; we also hate this rotten dynasty to the core and will not let these words spread."
