Chapter 43

Lin Hui casually waved his hand, and the three people behind him immediately took large steps, slowly surrounding them.

These three people moved with a solemn and imposing demeanor, clearly seasoned veterans.

Rong Kaihua lowered his voice and said, "Kaixuan, you retreat inside. I will guard the door and try to buy time. If Grandpa Cai or my father returns, they will surely save us."

In fact, his words were more for comfort, as even he knew that the two were searching the entire city for Rong Kaixuan, and the possibility of them returning in time was virtually nonexistent.

As the three approached, one of them laughed and said, "This kid's long sword is quite a decent spirit weapon. I'll take it later."

The other two slightly pursed their lips, seemingly having no objections.

Then, there was a light sound from their hands as they each drew out their spirit weapons.

The first to speak held a spirit sword, while the other two held a spirit knife and a long staff.

The three let out a low cry and charged forward together. Their coordination was extremely默契, clearly not their first time working together.

Rong Kaihua's expression remained unchanged. His wrist flicked, and countless specks of light immediately splashed onto the long sword. The sword in his hand seemed to transform into a large bird, which soared up, with sword tips all over its body, containing immense power.

The faces of the three people slightly changed. They did not dare to be negligent and each displayed their abilities, releasing equally powerful forces from their spirit weapons to block Rong Kaihua's attack.

Lin Hui, watching from the side, coldly snorted and said, "Three peak warriors surrounding a peer, yet still unable to take him down. Hmph, useless things."

Upon hearing Lin Hui's words, the three people's expressions slightly changed. They suddenly roared, and the power of their weapons surged, instantly turning defense into offense, pressing Rong Kaihua to the point where he could hardly catch his breath.

Their initial plan was to wear down Rong Kaihua's fighting spirit and then finish him off in one go.

However, due to Lin Hui's taunt, they were forced to bring out their true skills prematurely.

Under the attack of three peers, even Rong Kaihua found it extremely difficult.

Rong Kaixuan's expression changed. He gritted his teeth and extended his finger, lightly tapping.

Instantly, a point of light formed in front of him and grew at an incredible speed into a spirit warrior.

"Bad, he's summoning a spirit warrior. He's a Spirit Gatherer..."

The three peak warriors' hearts trembled, and their movements slowed.

A Spirit Gatherer was a more terrifying existence than a Spirit Caster. Moreover, every Spirit Gatherer was an invaluable treasure to their family, and if attacked by outsiders, they would surely retaliate tenfold.

Lin Hui's expression changed for the first time. He looked at Rong Kaixuan with surprise, his eyes flashing with killing intent.

"He's a Spirit Gatherer. We cannot let him escape, or we will be hunted down relentlessly."

The three peak warriors were stunned, their eyes immediately becoming fanatical and dangerous.

They were originally reckless individuals. Once they understood the gravity of the situation, they knew what to do.

One of them, holding a long staff, approached the spirit warrior. He swung his staff, trapping the spirit warrior.

Although the spirit warrior was indestructible and hard to defeat, it was a very difficult opponent. However, if a higher-level opponent engaged it, it would have no time to deal with others.

Rong Kaixuan sneered. His fingers moved, and he released two more points of light.

When these two points of light also turned into spirit warriors, even the elegantly dressed Lin Hui's face changed.

Under Rong Kaixuan's command, the two spirit warriors unhesitatingly charged at the warriors surrounding Rong Kaihua. These three warriors were all peak-level, and even in a one-on-one fight, they would not be inferior to Rong Kaihua. However, when faced with the most skilled entanglers in the world, the spirit warriors, they were frustrated and helpless.

Powerful spirit weapons struck the spirit warriors, but only dissipated some of their spirit energy without dispersing them. Such injuries, which would have killed a normal human dozens of times, had no effect on their actions.

The spirit warriors continued to entangle them, leaving them no time to focus on anything else.

Trapped by the spirit warriors, they could not break free in the short term.

Rong Kaihua's figure moved slightly, once again blocking in front of Rong Kaixuan. He glared at the opponent and said loudly, "Sir, if you leave now, it's still in time."

Although this person had already ignited his anger, making him want to tear him apart, protecting Rong Kaixuan was the top priority. As for revenge...

Once they escaped and found Grandpa Cai and his father, with the family's power, they could hunt down the enemy to the death.

Lin Hui bared his teeth, his white teeth looking somewhat terrifying.

"Heh heh, are we supposed to let go now and wait for you to hunt us down?" He sneered, "You're dreaming."

Rong Kaihua sighed lightly. Since his thoughts were seen through, he no longer tried to persuade.

He looked up at the light barrier above and lowered his voice, "Kaixuan, this protective light barrier is not very strong. I will make a desperate attempt. If I can break through the barrier, you immediately run to the street." He paused and said, "This is Gan'gan City. Once you reach the street, those people, no matter how bold, will not dare to harm you."

Rong Kaixuan was stunned and said, "Big brother, what about you?"

Rong Kaihua said irritably, "Of course, I will go with you. Hmph, do you think I like staying here?"

Rong Kaixuan breathed a sigh of relief and responded heavily. He glanced at the grim-faced Lin Hui and said in a low voice, "Big brother, now he's alone. We might as well work together to..."

"Shut up." Rong Kaihua lightly shouted, "He is a Spirit Caster." He smiled bitterly and said, "A Spirit Caster is invincible against warriors of the same rank."

"Heh heh, indeed, you have some discernment." Lin Hui seemed somewhat impatient and said, "Since you won't come over, I'll have to put in more effort to send you on your way."

He lightly waved his hand, and a black mist appeared in front of him. The mist condensed and instantly turned into a black giant python. It swayed its body and lunged at the Rong brothers.

Rong Kaihua growled and thrust his sword, the tip of which burst into brilliant light.

True Qi combined with the spirit weapon, instantly releasing incomparable power.

However, this black mist python seemed unusual. It opened its mouth, and the fangs formed from the mist were as solid as reality, biting down on the long sword.

"Snap..."

The fangs shattered, turning into a black mist. However, the black mist was immediately absorbed by the python, and new fangs grew back.

But a small black mark appeared on Rong Kaihua's sword.

The python's corrosive ability was so strong that it could even slightly damage a spirit weapon.

Although this small mark was insignificant, if there were thousands of such marks, the sword would become useless.

"Move aside." Rong Kaihua growled, pushing his brother away. He took a deep breath, and the sword in his hand glowed brightly. He swung his sword, and each swing was broad and powerful, filled with a fierce and domineering aura.

The black python, under the countless sword strikes, developed large wounds on its body. Although it healed each time, the speed was clearly much slower.

Lin Hui, watching from the side, said, "Not bad, a warrior with great potential. If he could survive, he would surely become a martial master. But unfortunately, he will die today." He turned and looked at Rong Kaixuan, smiled, and flipped his wrist, throwing two talismans.

The two talismans shimmered in the air and instantly turned into two spirit warriors.

Seeing the spirit warriors formed from the talismans, Rong Kaixuan felt a bitter taste in his heart.

He had already sold the three talismans he had, and now he only had a box of blank talismans. What could he use to compete?

If he had known this, he would have kept at least one for self-defense.

"Kill him." Lin Hui said coldly.

The two spirit warriors immediately charged forward. Although they had no weapons, the nature of spirit warriors made them very difficult opponents.

Rong Kaixuan's feet moved, and he immediately jumped. His dodging angle was very strange, and his body had a peculiar bending and twisting motion.

However, this movement was effective, easily dodging the attacks of the two spirit warriors.

"Huh?" Lin Hui looked at Rong Kaixuan in surprise, seemingly not expecting this skill from a Spirit Gatherer.

After a moment, a hint of impatience appeared on his face.

The Spirit Gatherer was as slippery as an eel, being chased by the two spirit warriors but never falling into real danger.

"Hmph." Lin Hui grunted heavily. He was in the business of robbery, and although the protective light barrier provided cover, if the time was too long, someone might notice.

Therefore, he needed to end the fight quickly.

He let out a light cry and waved his hand again.

Another black mist condensed from the void. Although his face was already pale after forming the black mist python, his eyes remained sharp, like a gambler on a high, with an indescribable madness.

"Go..."

The python left a long black trail in the air, coiling toward Rong Kaixuan.

At this moment, Rong Kaixuan was facing the attacks of two spirit warriors. The sudden change from behind caught him off guard.

Although he had the heart of a warrior, the significant difference in strength prevented him from fully utilizing the skill's true power.

Just as the black python and the spirit warriors were about to form a包围, a deafening roar suddenly echoed in everyone's ears.
