Chapter 253: Backstab

Watching Jiang Feng kill Mo Tianbao with a single palm in front of the three of them, Xu Congyang felt a surge of anger shoot straight to the top of his head.

"Jiang Feng! You're far too ruthless! Even if you have a grudge with Brother Mo, you shouldn't strike down directly!"

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan came to their senses, their faces solemn as they looked at Jiang Feng.

Although they thought the Mo brothers' words might not be trustworthy, Jiang Feng killing someone right before them was indeed a bit too much……

Jiang Feng seemed not to hear Xu Congyang's roar, his icy gaze sweeping over Mo Tianheng lying on the ground.

He lifted his step toward Mo Tianheng, the murderous intent surrounding him unmistakable.

Mo Tianheng, terrified, felt his soul scatter and scrambled backward, rolling and crawling.

"No, don't kill me! Xu brother, save me!"

He was truly frightened now; Jiang Feng's ferocity exceeded his imagination.

Seeing Jiang Feng still intent on killing, Xu Congyang's anger became uncontainable.

With a swing of his long sword, a fierce sword aura shot toward Jiang Feng.

"Jiang Feng! You dare not harm any more lives!"

Jiang Feng didn't even turn his head, and slapped forward with his other hand.

"Bang!"

The palm wind collided with the sword aura, which instantly dissipated.

Xu Congyang felt a massive force, his arm went numb, and his long sword nearly slipped from his hand.

He stared at Jiang Feng in horror, a storm of terror rising in his heart.

That sword he just used had already consumed eighty percent of his strength, yet Jiang Feng dispelled it with a casual palm?

To what extent has Jiang Feng's strength truly reached?

"Noisy!"

Jiang Feng coldly spat out the two words, his steps unchanged, still walking toward Mo Tianheng.

Xu Congyang's face flushed bright red.

"Jiang Feng! Do you really think we wouldn't dare act against you? Qin Elder! He openly breaks the rules and indiscriminately kills the innocent; we should act together to stop him!"

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan exchanged a glance, their faces showing a troubled expression.

They could see Jiang Feng's power was unfathomable; if they truly engaged, they might not be opponents. Yet Xu Congyang had spoken, and if they didn't act, they'd not only lose the Qin family's face but also have no explanation for Qin Feihong.

Qin Kuo Dong clenched his teeth, bowed his fist to Jiang Feng, his tone apologetic: "Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry. The Qin family's rule cannot be broken. Please cease, and do not create more killing sins."

As the words fell, he and Qin Kuo Nan stepped forward simultaneously, their true qi surging; the Grandmaster Seventh Rank aura released, faintly blocking Jiang Feng's path.

Seeing this, Xu Congyang's confidence grew; he swung his long sword, the sword light flashing, and thrust toward Jiang Feng: "Jiang Feng! Today I will uphold Heaven's way and give you, this lawless madman, a proper lesson!"

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan dared not delay; the two moved left and right, attacking Jiang Feng. Qin Kuo Dong's palm wind was fierce, Qin Kuo Nan's fist was powerful; their coordinated teamwork showed they often fought side by side.

In an instant, three Grandmaster-level strongmen simultaneously besieged Jiang Feng alone!

Mo Tianheng, seeing this, caught a flash of relief in his eyes, rolled and crawled to the side, hoping the three could kill Jiang Feng and avenge Mo Tianbao.

Jiang Feng looked at the three attackers, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Just the three of you, and you think you can stop me?"

As the words fell, he advanced instead of retreating, his figure moving like a specter toward them.

"Bang!"

The two fists collided, emitting a muffled thud.

Xu Congyang felt a massive force surge like a tide, his arm instantly lost sensation, and his whole body was flung backward like a kite with its string cut.

At this moment, Qin Kuo Dong's palm wind had already struck, and Qin Kuo Nan's fist followed closely; their attacks sealed off all of Jiang Feng's evasion space.

Jiang Feng neither dodged nor avoided; his internal true qi surged to the limit, and both fists shot out simultaneously.

"Bang bang!"

Two booming sounds.

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan felt a terrifying force, then retreated several steps in disarray.

The two stared at Jiang Feng in horror, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Both of them were Grandmaster Seventh Rank cultivators; even when combined, a Grandmaster Ninth Rank strongman would have to temporarily avoid their brilliance.

Yet Jiang Feng, with his own strength, hard‑blocked their attacks and even gained the upper hand!

Jiang Feng's power was simply terrifying to the extreme!

"Mo Tianheng! Why are you still standing there! Come help! If we combine, we can definitely take him down!"

Seeing the three still not a match for Jiang Feng, Xu Congyang shouted at Mo Tianheng.

"Coming... coming!"

Mo Tianheng's expression was terrified, yet he forced himself forward, reaching behind Xu Congyang.

Suddenly a feral grin appeared on his face, and he thrust hard at Xu Congyang's back!

Xu Congyang was staring at Jiang Feng and hadn't expected Mo Tianheng to launch a sudden surprise attack.

The push forced his body involuntarily toward Jiang Feng.

Xu Congyang was instantly shocked and angry, trying to steady himself, but it was already too late.

Jiang Feng lifted his foot and kicked hard.

"Bang!"

Xu Congyang was flung outward again.

Meanwhile, Mo Tianheng seized the opportunity and, without looking back,

"Jiang Feng! I remember you! The Mo family will never

As the words fell, his figure had already

Relying on the Mo Family's unrivaled footwork, he actually made that guy run away!

"Bastard!"

Xu Congyang lay on the ground, watching the direction where Mo Tianheng vanished, so angry that his whole body trembled.

He never imagined that, after kindly standing up for the Mo Family brothers, Mo Tianheng would, in order to save his own life, push him out to serve as a shield?

A feeling of betrayal surged in his heart, nearly making him faint with anger.

Jiang Feng looked at the empty forest entrance, and the sarcasm at the corner of his mouth deepened.

He looked at the collapsed Xu Congyang on the ground.

"Is this the tough hero you brag about, with iron bones and steel resolve?"

Xu Congyang's complexion instantly turned pale and then blue.

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan also stared at each other, their faces showing awkward expressions.

At this moment, they clearly understood that they had been deceived by the Mo Family brothers.

Qin Kuo Dong cleared his throat and clasped his fists in salute to Jiang Feng.

"Mr. Jiang, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. It seems we wrongly accused you; please be magnanimous and don't take it to heart."

Speaking, he gave Qin Kuo Nan a signal; both withdrew their true energy and stepped back a few paces, clearly not wanting to fight Jiang Feng any longer.

Jiang Feng glanced at them without speaking, then leapt and jumped into the Spirit Spring.

Soon he found that Nine Xuan Flower at the bottom of the water.

Jiang Feng carefully plucked the Nine Xuan Flower, and only then rose to the surface.

He dried the droplets on his body and prepared to leave.

Qin Kuo Dong, watching Jiang Feng about to leave, forced himself to speak.

"Mr. Jiang, stay a moment!"

Jiang Feng halted his steps, staring at him coldly.

"What? You still want to keep me here?"

"No, no, no!"

Qin Kuo Dong waved his hands repeatedly, a flattering smile appearing on his face.

"Mr. Jiang, since we are fated to meet here, why not travel together? This place is extremely dangerous; if the four of us stick together, safety can be greatly increased."

"Indeed, Mr. Jiang. More people means more support."

The two of them are now completely impressed by Jiang Feng's strength; traveling with him in this ruin would be absolutely safe.

But Jiang Feng only gave a cold smile.

"I have no interest in joining others, especially those who don't trust me."

Having said that, he ignored the three, turned, and vanished into the dense forest.

"Hmph! If you don't go with us, then you don't go with us! Who cares! Do you really think you're that great? What's with the arrogance!"

Xu Congyang, feeling he had lost face, cursed viciously.

Qin Kuo Dong and Qin Kuo Nan exchanged glances, both showing a wry smile.

They both harbored some resentment that Xu Congyang was too impulsive.

If he hadn't offended that Demon God, Jiang Feng wouldn't have refused so decisively.

On the other side, Jiang Feng, alone, swiftly darted through the dense forest.

At that moment, a faint cry for help drifted vaguely into his ears.

"Help! Is anyone there…"
