Chapter 1337: Ineffective Siege

The head of the Liu family, provoked by Ning Chen, could not keep his temper; at his command, all the guards around him surrounded Ning Chen.

Lady Gongsun Ze sighed from the side, glanced at Miss Hongxiu who had not revealed herself, and thought, well, after tonight, the Liu family will be completely ruined.

Moreover, Lady Gongsun Ze had already figured out how these guards would be miserably defeated.

Ning Chen looked at the surrounding guards; their abilities were perfectly clear to his eyes—they were merely people with a slight grasp of sorcery, which to him was a trivial matter, not even worth his notice.

The surrounding guards looked at each other, none launching an attack immediately.

After all, the person in the middle was far too calm; a normal person surrounded by them should not react this way, especially since there were so many of them and only one person in the middle.

The head of the Liu family did not overthink it; he directly ordered, "Break one of his legs for me!"

Upon receiving the order, the guards rushed forward, each wielding a sword to strike at Ning Chen.

When the swords approached within fifty centimeters of Ning Chen, they suddenly seemed blocked by something, unable to get any closer to him no matter how they thrust.

Everyone else was the same, so the scene fell into a bizarre state: they all thrust inward with force, yet could not move an inch.

This was clearly unnatural, as if a transparent protective layer surrounded Ning Chen.

"What are you doing!" the head of the Liu family said angrily.

The guards stepped back a few paces; one guard, as if refusing to believe in bad luck, charged up again to strike Ning Chen, only to be blocked once more.

"Master, something is wrong; we cannot attack him!"

The head of the Liu family had naturally seen this scene; he looked at Ning Chen in astonishment, realizing this person was actually a cultivator.

"Use your talisman arts!"

Hearing this, the guards all put down their swords, then drew sheets of talisman paper from their waist sashes.

One man spoke: "Flame!"

Upon hearing the words, everyone took out a talisman paper representing Flame, then simultaneously held the paper between their index and middle fingers.

"Heaven and earth resonate, flame speedily come, as the law commands!"

Everyone spoke in unison; then, the talisman papers before them burned rapidly, and many dragon-like illusions suddenly appeared in the air.

Ning Chen even had the leisure to observe these illusions in the illusionary realm; truthfully, these phantom dragons looked mediocre, not as good as the Flame Law.

The phantom dragons suddenly opened their wide mouths, and streams of fire erupted from their deepest interiors.

This fire was no ordinary fire; it was sorcery fire, usable in combat.

The flames surrounded Ning Chen uniformly, with light flickering, making it impossible for the crowd to see what was happening inside.

Gu Yanqi watched the situation with some concern; Ning Chen was so powerful, he should be fine.

The power of the talisman paper would not last long in the Duojiujiu Society; the fire dragons around him vanished one after another, and once they had completely disappeared, the head of the Liu family and all the guards widened their eyes.

For Ning Chen was completely unharmed; indeed, he even had a smile on his lips, leisurely crossing his arms and looking at everyone.

Now, the guards dared not act rashly; they were Daoist Priests who used talismans and knew well the power of their talisman paper. Seeing this, the person before them was certainly no ordinary one, after all, they had just attacked him with so many people.

Seeing the guards no longer attacking, Ning Chen brushed his clothes and said somewhat coldly, "Well, is it over?"

This result left the head of the Liu family very dissatisfied: "I said, what are you fools doing! Attack! Attack for me!"

Urged like this, the guards had no choice but to continue attacking directly.

They drew another sheet of talisman paper, this time for lightning, but unfortunately it was still useless.
