Chapter 75

The leader of the ambush knew about Shen Lang's grudge with the Holy Light Sect. The young master of the Holy Light Sect, Yao Chengjie, had been publicly humiliated by Shen Lang, who had mocked him to the point of being scolded to the ground, making Yao Chengjie hate Shen Lang to the bone.

So he originally intended to wait for the best opportunity, hoping to use the hands of the Holy Light Sect to eliminate Shen Lang.

But now, a woman who looked like a fairy had suddenly appeared, entangling the people of the Holy Light Sect. From the looks of it, whether they could retreat unscathed was still a question. Now, he could only take action himself.

If he waited any longer, the Holy Light Sect's people might be repelled by the Profound Dao Sect. When dealing with Shen Lang, the Profound Dao Sect would likely intervene.

At that time, they might lose this best opportunity.

So these people no longer waited and, according to the original plan, launched their attack directly!

...

Shen Lang saw the fierce Demon-Breaking Arrows coming at him, but he didn't take them seriously at all.

Although the Demon-Breaking Arrows had the attribute of breaking demons and magic, in Shen Lang's eyes, their speed was far too slow.

He didn't even try to intercept them. Instead, his body spun like a whirlwind, and he gracefully sidestepped, evading the several Demon-Breaking Arrows that came at him in a mysterious manner!

The last arrow was even kicked away by him with a single kick.

Even the four black chains didn't seem to pose much of a threat to him.

However, just as the four black chains were breaking through the air, two more people emerged from the ground behind Shen Lang!

As soon as they appeared, they both slammed their palms into the ground forcefully!

"Vine Technique!"

"Earth Bind Technique!"

Several thick vines, as big as arms, pushed aside the stones on the ground and rushed forward, entangling Shen Lang.

The other person's palm was even more effective. As soon as he slapped the ground, dust exploded, and a pile of rocks suddenly emerged, trapping Shen Lang's feet in the ground!

These were all well-trained killers, fully prepared, and they had sealed off all of Shen Lang's escape routes.

And they attacked simultaneously, aiming for a one-hit kill!

Six killers at the Fifth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm attacking together, in Tianfeng City, this lineup was enough to instantly kill the strongest of a major force.

And their target was actually Shen Lang, the famous waste in Tianfeng City!

This scene left the people of the Holy Light Sect, a major sect, feeling strangely surprised.

"Clang, Clang, Clang!"

Three sounds of a zither, and three sharp wind blades struck the black chains, but they didn't sever the chains; they only made them deviate slightly.

"Black Iron!" Zilan's eyes revealed surprise from a distance.

The people of the Holy Light Sect were clearly not stupid. Seeing that Zilan of the Profound Dao Sect wanted to help Shen Lang, they immediately intensified their attack, forcing Zilan and Mo Ge to retreat.

This made them a bit further away from this side.

"If that's all you can do, it's not enough!"

Shen Lang, whose feet were trapped, was not afraid. He just laughed lightly, raised his right hand, and a talisman immediately burned, instantly turning the entangling vines into ashes with a fierce flame. He then continued to attack, sending the person who cast the Vine Technique flying.

Almost at the same time, Shen Lang swung his left hand and threw another talisman.

A cold aura instantly surged, instantly freezing the person who cast the Earth Bind Technique into an ice block!

The Cold Ice Talisman was a large-area attack talisman, and the person who cast the Earth Bind Technique was the closest to Shen Lang. Before he could react, he turned into an ice sculpture.

How could a talisman of this level be so easily dodged by a martial artist of this rank?

If it were as easy as a regular talisman, the War Emperor would have lived for six thousand years in vain.

These two threats were temporarily resolved, but with this delay, the four chains immediately swept past him!

Then the four masked men moved quickly, and the four chains immediately wrapped around Shen Lang's waist.

"Using Black Iron Chains against me? Looks like you really went all out." Shen Lang sneered.

Yao Chengjie of the Holy Light Sect laughed loudly: "This kid doesn't have a spirit weapon, he can't break the Black Iron Chains. He's dead for sure, hahaha!"

At this moment, Mo Ge of the Profound Dao Sect suddenly rose into the air, his long sword turning into a stream of light and rushing toward Shen Lang.

"Receive the spirit weapon!"

Mo Ge shouted coldly, lightning swirling around him as he punched toward the black-clothed men.

"Stop him!" the people of the Holy Light Sect shouted in anger.

Zilan's zither floated in front of her, and as she lightly plucked the strings, several sharp wind blades immediately forced the people of the Holy Light Sect back.

The situation became a bit subtle and complicated...

But it wasn't over yet. A sharp whistling sound suddenly came from the forest!

A purple-golden staff, entirely bronze-colored and emitting a yellowish glow, shot out, instantly striking Mo Ge's long sword and sending it flying.

The black-clothed man who followed immediately recalled the purple-golden staff with a wave of his hand, and without hesitation, struck to the right, just in time to meet Mo Ge's punch.

A loud "Boom" echoed, and Mo Ge grunted and flew back.

The black-clothed man, using the force of the two powerful energy strikes, floated over to Shen Lang like a feather.

Then he stepped on the chains and rushed over, the purple-golden staff bursting with a terrifying light, aiming for Shen Lang's chest.

"Add me, is it enough?" the man laughed wildly.

"Eightth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm!" Mo Ge wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said coldly.

"What?" Zilan, the woman in white, was surprised. Among so many people, only she had this cultivation. Mo Ge was only at the Sixth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm, and the people of the Holy Light Sect were even weaker, all at the Fifth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm except for Yao Chengjie.

They didn't expect the person who came to assassinate Shen Lang to be such a powerful expert!

All of this happened in a flash, indeed attracting the attention of both the Holy Light Sect and the Profound Dao Sect, making everyone's actions slow down a bit.

What was even more bizarre was that Shen Lang, the main target of the assassination, was watching coldly from the side.

Even with his feet trapped and his body entangled by the chains, his expression remained unchanged, as if he were an outsider.

Seeing this, the black-clothed man holding the purple-golden staff felt a slight unease in his heart, and his killing intent grew even stronger.

If he didn't take action now to kill this person, even if the Profound Dao Sect couldn't intervene, the people of Tianfeng City would eventually notice.

This place was not convenient for an assassination.

Moreover, there was the more intimidating Green Robe Guard of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. The Treasure Gathering Pavilion had publicly declared their intention to recruit Shen Lang in front of many people.

Whether there were Green Robe Guards nearby was still uncertain.

"Kid, don't blame me when you die. I'm just doing my job for the money!"

The black-clothed man holding the purple-golden staff roared, his feet stepping on the chains and rapidly circling around Shen Lang. The purple-golden staff, with its sharp whistling sound, attacked Shen Lang like a storm.

A spear strikes in a line, a staff sweeps a wide area!

In just a moment, the purple-golden staff had already attacked more than ten times, chopping, wrapping, stabbing, and lifting, with incredible speed and ferocity!

Under such fierce attacks, the two people of the Profound Dao Sect showed a look of joy.

They saw that although Shen Lang was trapped by the chains, his body was as flexible as a snake, constantly swaying left and right, creating a series of afterimages, barely evading the attacks of the Eighth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm expert!

"The City Lord's methods are nothing special. Do you have any new tricks?"

Shen Lang said indifferently, making the leader of the Eighth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm furious.

"Hmph!" The man coldly snorted, and his attack speed increased even more.

The whistling sound of the purple-golden staff made everyone's hearts race, even if it wasn't aimed at them, the sound alone was enough to instill fear.

"If you want to kill me, you'll have to see if you have the ability!"

Shen Lang's feet trembled, instantly shaking off the rocks that trapped his feet.

Then his body suddenly swayed, and he was immediately enveloped in a crackling electric light. The fierce lightning instantly transmitted through the chains to the four people at the other end.

"Ugh!"

The four thick chains shook violently.

After inheriting the War Emperor's legacy, although Shen Lang's understanding of martial arts and the great principles of heaven and earth had reached the pinnacle of this world, his strength was still a bit too weak.

With his current cultivation, and the lightning force being dispersed, this counterattack was not enough to injure a Fifth Heaven of Qi-Wu Realm martial artist.

However, his goal was not there.

As soon as the lightning force was transmitted, the four people holding the chains were struck, feeling a sudden numbness in their bodies, and their spiritual energy flow was disrupted.

Before they could resist the lightning force, Shen Lang had already attacked again!

He swung his right hand and threw another high-level talisman.

While dodging the attack of the purple-golden staff, a small ice spike flashed by...

With a "Puff," it instantly pierced the neck of the person who had cast the Vine Technique and was just getting up, killing him on the spot.

"You... are too weak!"

...
