Chapter 894

Hmm?

Jiang Chen instantly sensed something was wrong, alarm bells ringing in his heart.

Following his instinct, he spun around sharply, looking behind him.

Gazing at Zhou Xuan, who had already appeared before him, the unease in Jiang Chen's heart grew even stronger.

Without the slightest hesitation, he hurriedly mobilized the full force of his body and threw a punch!

With a thunderous "Bang—", a terrifyingly powerful gust of air swept out, surging forth and instantly engulfing Zhou Xuan!

The enormous commotion drew everyone's attention.

The crowd turned their heads to look, one after another.

Seeing Jiang Chen's grave expression, they could not help but look puzzled.

Then they shifted their gaze, looking to the side.

After taking Jiang Chen's strike, Zhou Xuan's figure had already retreated over a hundred steps away.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

Jiang Yan stared at the two of them, somewhat baffled.

Jiang Chen's expression was cold and stern as he said in a low voice, "There's something off about this woman. Just now she tried to make a move on me......"

The mysterious flame within his body could not possibly have warned him for no reason—it must have sensed some kind of danger.

Added to that was the fact that the other party had sneakily come up behind him.

If you said there was nothing wrong with that, who would believe it?

"Make a move on you?"

Jiang Yan's brow rose, the doubt in his heart growing ever stronger.

Setting aside the fact that her father was about to join forces with the Heavenly Sword Ancestor to deal with Wang Jizhou.

Before the battle ended, she shouldn't be stupid enough to strike at Brother Chen, lest she ruin the joint operation.

Even if Zhou Xuan had truly been driven mad by rage, losing all reason, she absolutely could not have attacked Brother Chen.

After all, it was I who killed Zhou Yan—if she truly wanted to strike, it should have been at me first.

The others around had all thought of this point as well, and one after another their faces showed puzzlement.

But at this moment, Zhou Xuan paid no attention to the crowd.

Without a word, she mobilized her strength and struck again!

Seeing this, the others prepared to step in and block her, but Jiang Chen raised a hand to stop them: "Leave it to me......"

Having said that, and without waiting for anyone to speak, he leapt into the air and appeared before Zhou Xuan to engage her!

Bang! Bang! Bang!!

The rumbling sounds rang out continuously, immediately drawing the Heavenly Sword Ancestor's attention.

His brows knit tightly as he looked at Zhou Tianhan beside him: "Valley Master Zhou, if you do not restrain your juniors, don't blame me for disciplining them on your behalf."

The moment his words fell, what greeted him was a flash of sword-light!

The Heavenly Sword Ancestor held his sacred weapon and, with a casual raise of his hand, easily neutralized it.

Before he could even open his mouth to ask the reason, a longsword came from behind him and pierced straight through his chest!

At this moment he had long since released his Primordial Spirit state—he was mere flesh and blood.

Therefore, facing this sword, he was unable to offset it.

Blood sprayed in all directions, and a wave of searing pain surged from his chest, sweeping through his entire body.

The Heavenly Sword Ancestor stiffly lowered his head, stared at the familiar sword-tip, and could not help but shrink his pupils.

"Xuan Ya......."

He instantly understood—the one wielding the sword was none other than Wang Jizhou, who had just collapsed and lain motionless!

Why had these two suddenly joined forces?

Could everything just now have been an act?

Too many doubts swirled in the Heavenly Sword Ancestor's heart.

But he had no time at all to sort it all out.

He could only feel a tremendous force slam into him, sending his entire body flying!

When the Heavenly Sword Ancestor crashed to the ground, he smashed out an enormous, pitch-black crater.

He slowly raised his head and looked ahead.

As the dust settled, two figures standing side by side were revealed.

Wang Jizhou!

Zhou Tianhan!

But strangely, apart from their different appearances, their expressions and gazes were utterly identical!

Noticing this, a sudden, overwhelming sense of foreboding welled up in the Heavenly Sword Ancestor's heart.

"Who exactly are you......."

Zhou Tianhan smiled without answering, about to strike again and utterly annihilate the man!

But just at that moment, an unexpected change occurred.

Whoosh—

A sword-gang of incomparable sharpness swept in and struck the two of them!

Zhou Tianhan instinctively raised his hand to block and easily tore it apart.

He then lowered his head to look, but saw no sign of the Heavenly Sword Ancestor.

He shifted his gaze, looking into the distance.

There, the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuquan, was supporting the Heavenly Sword Ancestor as they faced off against him from afar.

"Interesting, another one coming to die…"

Zhou Tianhan and Wang Jizhou's lips simultaneously curled into an extremely cold and cruel smile.

Then their figures shot out explosively, engaging the two in battle!

At the same moment.

Zhou Xuan was still locked in fierce combat with Jiang Chen!

Between their fists and kicks, afterimages flashed one after another; the terrifying might was already enough to easily slay any expert at the Ten Thousand Manifestations level!

If not for the fact that the two had only revealed cultivation bases at the Sun Wheel realm, outsiders would have thought it was Primordial Spirit realm experts clashing!

And this scene made the crowd of the Cangwu Jiang family feel very strange.

Most of them had no shallow cultivation bases.

Although they could faintly detect a trace of danger from Zhou Xuan.

It was far from reaching the point of matching Jiang Chen!

So how exactly had she managed it now?!

Just as everyone was puzzling over it.

A look of sudden understanding gradually appeared in Jiang Beixuan's eyes.

He had already seen that this woman's body was not being controlled by herself, but by someone else entirely.

So he turned his head to look at the Heavenly Sword Sect Elder Ji Chang beside him and spoke his judgment aloud.

Upon learning that Zhou Xuan was suspected of being controlled by someone, and that the target was most likely the precious mirror in Jiang Chen's hands.

Ji Chang instantly understood the gravity of the situation.

Now, Zhou Tianhan had suddenly defected, joining forces with Wang Jizhou to deal with their own Ancestor.

The situation was dire; they urgently needed Jiang Chen's precious mirror to subdue the enemy!

If the precious mirror were seized by the other side, the consequences would be unthinkable.

So he swiftly flew out and joined the battle!

With the participation of a Primordial Spirit realm Sword King, Zhou Xuan immediately felt the pressure.

She stared at the precious mirror in Jiang Chen's hands and said through gritted teeth: "If not for this body being too weak—too weak to even bear half of my strength—how could ants like you possibly block me!"

As she spoke, she launched an attack and sent the two of them flying back!

Realizing she had still somewhat underestimated Jiang Chen's strength, and with Chang Ji's help added in, she had absolutely no chance of seizing the precious mirror.

She could only choose to temporarily cease fighting and retreat behind Zhou Tianhan.

For the moment, Zhou Tianhan, Wang Jizhou, and Zhou Xuan stood side by side.

The heavily wounded Heavenly Sword Ancestor and Wang Yuquan endured the searing pain, helped each other up, and stared fixedly at them.
