Chapter 524: Stalemate!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Blades clashed, and sword qi surged!

Throughout Tianbao Pavilion, the incessant clash of metal could be heard, and under the fierce battle, the entire building seemed on the verge of collapse.

"What's going on? It seems there's trouble at Tianbao Pavilion!"

"Who has the guts to cause trouble in Skull Gang's territory? Even the city lord has to show some respect to the three brothers of the Skull Gang."

"They’re purely looking for death. Let's go check it out, there's nothing else to do anyway!"

"Hey, I think if someone could wipe out the Skull Gang, that would be a great deed!"

"You're saying such things? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?

Hahaha...

"

"Looks like even the Skull Gang members are too busy to worry about themselves!"

"

Hehe,

bro, stay calm. I'd be glad to see these bastards go to nirvana!"

The commotion at Tianbao Pavilion naturally caught the attention of many in Iron Wolf City. Many martial artists, confident in their abilities, gathered to watch, while ordinary citizens could only glance from a distance.

Even with such a huge disturbance, the city guards had yet to arrive. At that moment, the demon race, leading numerous demonic beasts, had already surrounded Iron Wolf City. The city guards were too busy dealing with the demons to spare any attention to the city's affairs.

Boom!

Guo Zhan swung his large blade, forcing Ling Feng back several steps as his bloodshot eyes stared coldly at Ling Feng.

In the intense battle, despite the brothers' combined efforts seemingly suppressing Ling Feng, they had only gained a slight advantage over him.

It should be known that Ling Feng was merely at the Pulse Formation Realm. If he broke through to the Transformation Realm or the Spiritual Element Realm, who knew how formidable he would become.

"Enough! No matter what, this boy must be killed here!"

Guo Zhan and Guo Ao's killing intent surged. Ling Feng was already so difficult to handle; they could not allow him any chance to grow stronger.

"

Bah!

"

Ling Feng spat out a mouthful of blood. Wiping off the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth, he steadied himself with one hand on the Eradicator of Realms, barely maintaining his stance.

The Guo brothers' combined strength far exceeded his expectations.

Guo Ao, who had fought with him before, knew his movement arts were formidable. He gave Ling Feng no chance to get close, pressing him relentlessly with every move. He did not even allow him to use the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art.

The Guo brothers, who had become dominant figures in the chaotic Iron Wolf City, were indeed not to be underestimated!

"Boy, there's no need to resist! No matter what, you will die here today!"

Guo Ao coldly stared at Ling Feng, grinning savagely. "I will slice you into a thousand pieces to ease my hatred!"

Guo Zhan stood coldly to the side, ready to lock onto Ling Feng's aura at any moment.

His swordsmanship was fierce and domineering. Ling Feng, having opened three locks and activated the Eight Desolations Body Refinement Art, was still slightly weaker in strength compared to Guo Zhan.

"You want me dead? Do you think you're worthy?"

Ling Feng snorted. He had been too careless. During their battle, the Skull Gang elders had already set up barriers around them, intending to prevent his escape.

But the more he was pushed into a corner, the clearer his mind became.

No matter what, he could not die here.

"You have no chance left, kid!"

Guo Ao sneered. "Originally, I didn't want to kill you out of fear of the forces behind you. But today, you dared to challenge us. Even if you were the Emperor himself, you must die here!"

The heavy sword in Guo Ao's hand buzzed as it was infused with his formidable elemental force, releasing a menacing killing intent.

"Die!"

With a roar, Guo Ao charged forward and swung his anti-cavalry sword. His brother, Guo Zhan, joined him in the attack.

Both were third-level Spiritual Element Realm experts, with abundant elemental force in their bodies. Even though Ling Feng had activated eighty meridian gates, he couldn't outlast them in a prolonged battle.

"Let's see who dares to come closer!"

In desperation, Ling Feng took out the king beast egg, holding it high and threatening to smash it.

"What do you think you're doing!?"

Guo Ao was startled, quickly stopping in his tracks and grabbing Guo Zhan. His face twitched as he gritted his teeth, saying, "Kid, don't do anything rash, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

"

Hehe,

weren't you planning to slice me into a thousand pieces?" Ling Feng sneered, gripping the king beast egg. "Leader Guo, this king beast egg is your precious treasure, isn't it?"

Guo Ao's teeth ground together audibly, his fists clenched tightly. "Put down the king beast egg, and we can talk!"

"

Heh,

first, have your men remove the barrier!" Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, speaking calmly. "I tend to get nervous, and my hands might slip. If this treasure breaks, it'll ruin your fortune, Leader Guo."

"Kid, don't..." Guo Zhan growled, raising his sword, but Guo Ao held him back.

"Do as he says!" Guo Ao ordered, his fists trembling with rage.

"

Uh...

"

The elders of the Skull Gang exchanged glances but, seeing Guo Ao's stern expression, reluctantly removed the barrier and stepped back.

"That's better!"

Ling Feng held the king beast egg, using his words to stall while thinking of a plan. The brothers were too strong together, but if he could divide them, he might have a chance to counterattack and kill them both.

Most people in his situation would be thinking of escape, but Ling Feng was still contemplating how to kill the Guo brothers!

"I've done as you asked. Put down the king beast egg, and I'll spare your life!" Guo Ao's eyes were bloodshot, his focus entirely on the king beast egg. He was still fearing Ling Feng might destroy it and leave him with nothing.

"

Hehe,

you think I'm three years old?" Ling Feng sneered. "Leader Guo, have your second-in-command step back a hundred zhang[1], or I'll smash the egg. We'll all go down together if need be!"

"Step back!" Guo Ao ordered, shaking with anger but unwilling to risk the king beast egg. "Second brother, step back a hundred zhang!"

"

Hmph!

"

Guo Zhan swung his sword in frustration, glaring at Ling Feng. "Kid, don't think you can pull any tricks. A hundred zhang is nothing to me."

"Two Spiritual Element Realm experts afraid of a mere Pulse Formation Realm kid pulling tricks?

Haha...

"

Ling Feng laughed loudly as wings of true qi unfurled behind him. Slowly rising into the air, he said, "Leader Guo, I'll return the king beast egg once I'm in a safe place!"
