Seeing a young cultivator at the Earth Martial Realm, who had fought alongside them moments ago, now easily annihilated, Tang Ya's heart was filled with bitterness. The next moment, her gaze turned to her brother, who nodded slightly. Yes, they still had a trump card.
This trump card could kill ordinary Heaven Martial Realm cultivators, but against the pale-faced scholar, they had no confidence at all!
Because this trump card required catching the opponent off guard. Once discovered, their trump card would be useless, and the siblings would be the next to die.
At a certain moment, the siblings suddenly flipped their hands, and each held a Zhuge Divine Crossbow. The Zhuge Divine Crossbow, ranked eighth among Tang Sect's hidden weapons, could inflict serious damage at close range. Its power remained undiminished within fifty meters, and it was extremely fast. Even a Heaven Martial Realm cultivator, if shot, would die or be severely injured!
This was also the weapon the siblings could now perfectly control!
But the instant they brought out the Zhuge Divine Crossbows and aimed them at the opponent, the pale-faced scholar disappeared from his spot.
"Not good!" The siblings' faces changed.
"I've been guarding against you siblings for a long time!" The next moment, a voice sounded behind them. "You were too slow!"
It wasn't that the siblings were too slow, but that the pale-faced scholar was too fast!
Boom, boom!
The pale-faced scholar struck, and two terrifying energy blasts hit the siblings. *Puff, puff*, both siblings spat blood and were sent flying backward. Their Zhuge Divine Crossbows were also knocked away. Upon landing, their hearts had shattered, and they were on the verge of death. This was only because they were wearing formidable soft armor. Otherwise, they would have died like the first young man. Even now, though not dead, they wouldn't last long!
"The outside world is truly cruel. Is this how it ends after only a few months of adventuring?" The Tang siblings' eyes were filled with unwillingness.
"Scatter and flee!"
"Otherwise, you'll all die!"
The other five individuals, seeing their companions, one dead in an instant, and two others severely injured and on the brink of death, knew their ambush had completely failed. If they ran, there was still a sliver of hope; if they didn't, there was none!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Instantly, the five turned into five streaks of light, flying outwards.
But just then, the pale-faced scholar flicked his folding fan. *Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo*, streams of terrifying cold light whistled out.
The five people stumbled and fell to the ground, utterly dead.
"You two little fellows from the Tang Sect, perish as well!" The pale-faced scholar looked at the resilient Tang siblings with a cold expression.
"Senior, spare us! If you let us go, we are willing to pay a sufficient price!" Tang Feng said repeatedly, his eyes filled with terror.
"Your flesh is my compensation!" The pale-faced scholar grinned.
He wouldn't demand any treasures from the Tang Sect. These two, though not dead yet, had their hearts shattered by him and wouldn't live long. Even if he tried his best to save them, it would be futile. Besides, even if he could barely keep them alive, the cost would be immense, and why should he take the risk?
After all, his survival depended on his caution.
"I'll send you on your way! Remember, don't be so arrogant in your next life!" The pale-faced scholar's face was etched with a cruel smile as he prepared to strike and shatter them completely.
"Are we going to die?" Tang Ya didn't beg for mercy. Her brother's plea didn't elicit much reaction from her, as she felt her life force draining away. Her injuries were significantly worse than her brother's, primarily because his soft armor was better. "But I'm so unwilling. I haven't seen enough of the world's scenery... haven't even experienced love."
"No! Help us!" Tang Feng screamed in despair!
The pale-faced scholar flicked his folding fan, and two cold lights shot towards the siblings' heads.
Once hit, the siblings would instantly die!
After all, their bodies were protected by soft armor, but their heads were not!
But at this moment, *whoosh, whoosh*, two beams of light flew towards them. *Pop, pop*, two almost imperceptible sounds, and those two cold lights vanished.
"En?" The pale-faced scholar's expression abruptly changed. "Someone's here!"
The next moment, a figure appeared in the dilapidated factory and was rushing towards them.
The pale-faced scholar immediately unleashed his divine sense. He breathed a sigh of relief, as there were no ambushes around. Although this young man had neutralized his previous attack, that attack was merely ordinary for an Earth Martial Realm cultivator. Being able to neutralize it was nothing. He was afraid that besides these young people, there might be other masters in ambush!
"Yang Feilong?" The Tang siblings, who had seen someone coming to their rescue, suddenly felt a surge of hope, but the next moment, upon seeing that it was Yang Feilong, their hope turned back to despair. They were well aware of Yang Feilong's extraordinary talent.
They even knew that not long ago, Yang Feilong had defeated Yang Kai, the genius talent of the Earth Martial Realm from the Yang family, truly living up to his title as the champion of their Tang family's Heroic Arena. However, this pale-faced scholar before them was too formidable!
In their estimation, Yang Feilong's strength was at most at the peak of the Earth Martial Realm, but compared to this pale-faced scholar, the gap was immense.
"Unfortunately, I'm a bit late!" Yang Feilong shook his head and sighed.
He had sensed the disturbance from afar and abandoned his car to rush over at full speed. But upon arriving, he saw corpses scattered everywhere, and the Tang siblings were almost killed!
Yang Feilong then intervened and saved the Tang siblings, but the others were completely dead. Even with his heaven-defying medical skills, he couldn't save them!
Moreover, he could see that the Tang siblings' injuries were extremely severe. If they weren't treated quickly, they likely wouldn't survive.
"Yang Feilong, hurry and escape! You can't beat him. His strength is incredibly powerful. Staying here would be a futile loss of your life. We appreciate your good intentions." Tang Ya said, enduring intense pain. She didn't want an innocent person to get involved.
"Yang Feilong, the latest ranking, one of the top ten heavenly prodigies!" The pale-faced scholar looked at Yang Feilong with a half-smile. "Seeing so many people dead, yet you dare to charge in alone, I truly admire your courage!"
"Don't worry, since I'm here, you won't even be able to die if you wanted to!" Yang Feilong replied to Tang Ya, which left both Tang Ya and Tang Feng bewildered. Did you know who you're facing, to speak so boldly? The next moment, Yang Feilong looked at the pale-faced scholar and said calmly, "Pale-faced scholar, don't be so arrogant. I'll send you on your way now!"
"What did you say? Send me on my way?" The pale-faced scholar looked at Yang Feilong as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
The Tang siblings were also stunned. Do you know his identity and still speak with such confidence?
