"Zhao Hu, lead the charge."

"Zhang Long, protect the young master."

"Mu Family Army, listen to the order, form the small-scale Silver Spear Formation to defend against the enemy..."

Yang Huayi, who was engaged in combat with two Xuanwu Realm experts, did not forget to command the Mu Family Army in the critical moment. His orders were clear and decisive, and he even considered the safety of Feng Jueyu.

The Silver Spear Formation was a battle formation specifically researched by Mu Qianjun for his Silver Spear Vanguard. It was extremely powerful, and when the 40 soldiers led by Zhao Hu and Zhang Long moved, the circular formation they formed was as unbreakable as an iron bucket.

This formation was both offensive and defensive, suitable for small-scale forces to attack, defend, and encircle. Although they were outnumbered compared to the Gold and Silver Society, once they deployed the formation, it was like a copper wall and iron wall, impenetrable...

No matter how many weapons were thrown at them,

They remained as solid as a golden fortress.

This was the power of soldiers...

As for Yang Huayi sending people to protect him, Feng Jueyu had already anticipated it, but he would not do so.

He knew very well that every link in a formation was crucial. If he were to join, it would reduce the formation's effectiveness. Additionally, the Mu Family Army would have to consider his safety, which would prevent them from fully focusing on the formation's power, thus losing its effectiveness.

"Kill them. As long as you hold the front, no matter how many there are, they won't hurt me." Feng Jueyu did not disturb Yang Huayi. He patted Zhang Long's shoulder and whispered, then withdrew from the formation.

Zhang Long was about to stop him, but when he turned around, he found that Feng Jueyu had already run out of the formation. He was puzzled; the young master had no true qi, so how did he run so fast? His legs were too agile.

What Zhang Long didn't know was that Feng Jueyu was an expert at running. With the support of the Life and Death Unpredictable Art, he could easily use the tall grass to cover his tracks and disappear from everyone's sight.

Unfortunately, the assassins of the Gold and Silver Society had yet to realize that they had encountered a master of assassination, someone who approached killing with an artistic touch...

"Ah!"

A Gold and Silver Society assassin was forced to retreat repeatedly by several Mu Family Army soldiers using silver spears. Suddenly, a bright silver spear flew out of the formation, breaking through all of the assassin's defenses with its powerful momentum. Fortunately, the assassin had Xuanwu Realm cultivation and used all his true qi to defend against the attack.

At the same time, he used the powerful impact of the silver spear to fly to the side.

He thought he could take a breather by moving away from the unbreakable Mu Family Silver Spear Formation, but suddenly, a faint buzzing sound rang in his ear.

The buzzing sound was so sudden that no one noticed it, not even the assassin who had almost been impaled by the silver spear. He didn't expect that on his right side, which he thought was safe, a venomous snake was watching him closely.

Before the assassin even landed, the buzzing sound rang again. He felt no pain, only a numbness in the back of his neck, followed by a loss of consciousness and paralysis...

The Dazhui point, pierced four inches deep, causing total paralysis...

The person who caused the assassin to lose his ability to move was undoubtedly Feng Jueyu, who had been hiding in the shadows. He had anticipated that the assassin would be attacked by the Silver Spear Formation and had been waiting for him.

This was the first time Feng Jueyu had killed on the Tai Xuan Continent. To ensure a one-hit kill, he adjusted his body to its best state, then channeled the Death Qi of the Life and Death Unpredictable Art into a fine needle and used it to sneak attack the assassin, achieving satisfactory results.

In fact, if he had to face the assassin in a direct fight, Feng Jueyu would have no chance of winning. However, as an assassin, his insight was terrifying, and he had a perfect grasp of the battle situation.

This was the only opponent with an 80% success rate, so Feng Jueyu chose him.

He didn't aim for a one-hit kill. Feng Jueyu was not stingy with the limited Death Qi in his body. He injected it into the assassin's body through the fine needle, watching the assassin fall to the ground. The others hadn't noticed him yet, but Feng Jueyu was closely observing the unfortunate man in the grass.

This was a genuine Xuanwu Realm expert, six to seven levels higher in cultivation than Feng Jueyu. Apart from a sneak attack, no other means would have any effect on him. During this process, Feng Jueyu's main goal was to test whether the Life and Death Qi could destroy the human body's meridians, internal organs, and dantian. If it could, how much Death Qi would be needed, and what would the destruction process look like?

To this end, after using the golden needle to pierce the assassin's acupoint, Feng Jueyu hid in the grass and focused on the changes in the assassin's body.

The Life and Death Qi were the two most fundamental types of qi in the universe. Although Feng Jueyu cultivated both, he didn't fully understand their power.

However, after observing, he finally understood and was even shocked.

The Death Qi that entered the assassin's body swept through his entire meridian system and internal organs at lightning speed, directly stripping away all life energy. It seemed that the Death Qi and Life Qi were naturally opposing forces. When they met, the stronger one would directly eliminate the weaker one, in a simple and straightforward manner.

However, the Death Qi was not invincible. When it reached the dantian, it encountered resistance from a small force, the source of the assassin's true qi. The assassin was extremely unlucky; due to the sudden attack by the Silver Spear Formation, he had used all his true qi to defend against the silver spear's hidden force, which allowed Feng Jueyu's sneak attack to succeed.

Otherwise, it was uncertain whether the Death Qi could destroy a person's life functions or whether the golden needle could penetrate the defense of a Xuanwu Realm expert six to seven levels higher than him.

In summary, Feng Jueyu's successful sneak attack was a combination of luck and his precise analysis and planning of the battle situation. His luck was very good.

These details aside, what excited Feng Jueyu was that the Death Qi was a powerful and toxic force, similar to a deadly poison. A poisoned person could force the poison into a corner of a meridian and use a large amount of true qi to expel it, but they could never completely eliminate the poison from their body. Only an antidote could do that.

What was the antidote to the Death Qi of the universe? It was undoubtedly the Life Qi in Feng Jueyu's body.

Therefore, in the world, only Feng Jueyu had the antidote to the Death Qi, giving him a significant advantage.

Discovering the use of the Death Qi, Feng Jueyu was elated. This meant he had a powerful cheat, the most toxic poison in the world. How could anything, no matter how toxic, compare to the Death Qi from the universe?

As long as he was willing, as long as he could break through their defenses, they would be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Feng Jueyu raised his head, and his sharp eyes rekindled with confidence. Since his arrival in this world, his greatest frustration had been his lack of self-protection. Now he was no longer afraid. With the Life and Death Unpredictable Art, he would surely recover his previous strength and even surpass it.

"Da Long."

A shout rang out from the most intense part of the battle. Feng Jueyu looked up, his heart tightening. The assassins of the Gold and Silver Society, seeing the Mu Family Army's growing ferocity, had changed their tactics to a guerrilla-style attack, using ranged weapons and a few suicide attackers to target the key combatants in the formation. After several charges, Zhang Long's shoulder was slashed, and he was hit by two death nails on his back, almost losing his ability to fight.

These were brothers who had fought together on the battlefield. When one was injured, everyone was tense. The formation quickly fell into chaos, and several soldiers were wounded in a short time.

Although Yang Huayi was engaged with two Tian Gang assassins, he couldn't help Zhang Long. At this moment, two golden needles, like hornets, shot out of the grass, aiming at an assassin charging at the front.

The assassin was indeed skilled. Despite his true qi being depleted, he managed to do a backflip in mid-air to avoid Feng Jueyu's lethal golden needle.

However, he avoided the first needle but couldn't imagine Feng Jueyu's rapid follow-up. The second needle quickly followed, and the fine needle immediately hit the key acupoint of the Foot-Shaoyang Meridian.

The Death Qi was devastating, and the assassin's Foot-Shaoyang Meridian withered instantly. He stumbled and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

"Poison, deadly poison!"

The assassin's face changed dramatically, and he clutched his right foot, rolling on the ground.

This sudden change shocked both sides. Zhao Hu, supporting Zhang Long, looked in disbelief at the person who had just shot the needle, recognizing Feng Jueyu.

"Young Master..."

"No need to say more. Hand Zhang Long over to someone else and reorganize the Silver Spear Formation." Feng Jueyu glanced at Yang Huayi and said.

Zhang Long nodded, handed Zhao Hu to a young soldier, and then, with renewed vigor, raised his spear and shouted, "Brothers, Silver Spear Formation..."

"Boom!"

The boots of over 30 soldiers hit the ground with a loud thud. Once the iron-blooded generals reorganized, their momentum was like a storm, unstoppable.

The Silver Spear Formation was reformed, its power no less than before, and perhaps even stronger due to Feng Jueyu's appearance, which reignited the generals' fighting spirit.

The two leaders of the Gold and Silver Society had sharp eyes. They hadn't paid much attention to the weak-looking scholar behind them, but when they saw that the scholar's words had reignited the generals' morale, their faces changed.

"Who is this person?"

"I'm not sure. His attire doesn't seem to belong to the Mu Family Army?"

"Bad, this person is not simple. Just one word can command the Silver Spear Formation, which is loyal to Mu Qianjun. He's not an ordinary person. Kill that scholar first..."
