Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"No matter how many ants there are, they are still ants, and ultimately they cannot change the overall situation."

Seeing that Yun Wu Hui had summoned another group of Wu Sheng Sect members as reinforcements, Xu Liancheng's expression remained calm and undisturbed.

After all, the difference in strength between the Yuanhai Realm and the Lingpo Realm is like an insurmountable chasm, which cannot be bridged simply by increasing numbers!

Therefore, even when surrounded by Yun Wu Hui and a group of Wu Sheng cultists, Xu Liancheng showed no fear and remained calm and composed.

"Is that so?"

"And what if we include this protector as well...!"

Suddenly, a sinister laugh echoed from afar once more.

Swish!

The next moment, a streak of eerie green light streaked across the sky, crashing down in front of everyone like a meteorite, while simultaneously emanating a terrifying aura that sent chills down their spines.

The newcomer was dressed in a dark green robe, with a slender and thin figure. At this moment, there was a hint of melancholy between his brows, and his brows were slightly furrowed, giving him the appearance of a sickly rich young master.

However, the terrifying aura emanating from the green-robed man was so strong that no one dared to underestimate him. Some of the weaker cultivators even vomited blood and collapsed due to the oppressive aura he exuded!

"So it was this guy who did it...!"

"No wonder the Yun family possesses the Bone-Melting Powder, one of the ten most potent poisons on the continent. Now it all makes sense..."

Upon seeing the green-robed man suddenly appear, Xu Liancheng also frowned slightly, a rare hint of apprehension showing on his delicate, fair face.

Because the person who came was none other than a stranger.

It was none other than Liao Fusheng, the Poison Protector, one of the four great protectors of the Wusheng Sect in the past!

As for the mastermind behind the initial poisoning of everyone, it was naturally Liao Fusheng in front of them. Otherwise, the Yun family alone would not have been able to obtain the Huagong Ronggu San, one of the top ten poisons in the mainland.

"Your subordinate, Yun Wuhui, pays respects to Protector Liao!"

Similarly, Yun Wu Hui knelt on one knee and bowed respectfully to Liao Fusheng before him, his face full of piety.

Although his master is Yun Xiaotian, the current head of the Yun family, after converting to the Wusheng Sect, Liao Fusheng in front of him is also one of his superiors, so Yun Wuhui cannot afford to offend him either.

"Yun Wu Hui, well done."

"No wonder Yun Xiaotian valued you so much back then; you really are an obedient and capable servant..."

Liao Fusheng glanced at Yun Wuhui, who was kneeling at his feet, then stood with his hands behind his back, a playful smile on his lips. "I'll deal with this Xu fellow myself. As for the others, I'll leave them to you, kid. I hope you won't disappoint me..."

"Please rest assured, Protector Liao, this is nothing but a bunch of worthless scoundrels; I can handle them all by myself!"

Faced with Liao Fusheng's instructions, Yun Wuhui dared not neglect them and immediately kowtowed to accept the order.

"So this person is Liao Fusheng, one of the four protectors of the Wusheng Sect, the Poison Protector...!"

At this moment, Lu Feng also narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Liao Fusheng not far away.

Although this was his first time fighting Liao Fusheng, Lu Feng already knew everything about the latter's background and deeds.

Because, whether it was the strange drug slaves they had encountered in the past, or the family feuds and blood hatreds that Shen Tianzhong and others carried, all of these were inextricably linked to Liao Fusheng in front of them!

As for the life-defying elixir in the hands of Sun Chuanxiong of the Western Qin Kingdom and Zhao Yihu of the Jianghu Escort Agency, it was most likely also made by Liao Fusheng!

"With my current strength, I'm no match for this person. It seems I need to think of another way to break this deadlock..."

Thinking of this, Lu Feng clenched his fists under his sleeves again, and abandoned his plan to make a move.

Because Liao Fusheng is not only a master of poison, but also has a strong Yuan power cultivation, having reached the first level of the Yuan Sea Realm, making him comparable to Xu Liancheng, the current president of the Alchemist Guild!

With Lu Feng's current strength and abilities, it would be extremely difficult for him to directly confront a Yuanhai Realm expert!

"Liao Fusheng, if all four of your Wusheng Sect's protectors were gathered together, perhaps I would be somewhat afraid. But now, with your strength alone, you think you can make me submit? That's just wishful thinking..."

Seeing that Liao Fusheng wanted to fight him one-on-one, Xu Liancheng didn't seem surprised. He said with a hint of mockery, "Haven't you learned your lesson from the battle at Tianwang Mountain thirty years ago?"

Although the opponent is known as one of the four great protectors of the Wusheng Sect, he is only ranked third, and all his skills are related to "poison". He is not incapable of dealing with the opponent.

After all, Xu Liancheng himself was a seventh-grade alchemist and was also well-versed in the principles of various rare poisons.

In addition, about thirty years ago, Xu Liancheng also personally severely injured Liao Fusheng in the Tianwang Mountain area of ​​the Eastern Xuan Region. If the latter hadn't been lucky enough to hold on until the reinforcements from the Wusheng Sect arrived, he would probably have already lost his life!

Therefore, when facing Liao Fusheng again, Xu Liancheng dared not say that he was 100% sure of winning, but he had at least a 70% chance of winning!

"Hey Xu, don't get too cocky!"

Upon hearing Xu Liancheng mention the past, Liao Fusheng's face darkened, and he instantly became enraged. "Back then, it was merely a momentary lapse in judgment on my part that allowed you to narrowly win! Today, I, the Protector, am determined to avenge this humiliation and send you to hell!"

Thirty years ago, the Wusheng Sect was at its zenith, dominating the Eastern Xuan Region. Its fame was so great that it was often heard in other Xuan Regions of the continent!

However, after that, the Wusheng Sect was besieged by various righteous forces in the Eastern Xuan Region. Not only did the sect suffer heavy casualties among its experts, but the entire Wusheng Sect also gradually declined and never recovered!

As for Xu Liancheng in front of him, he was one of the many righteous masters who participated in the siege of the Wusheng Sect. The former's target was Liao Fusheng, one of the four protectors of the Wusheng Sect, known as the Poison Protector.

Therefore, the current confrontation between the two is not only a battle between good and evil, but also a showdown of grudges!

...

The other side of the plaza outside the palace

"Miss Ren, are you alright?"

While Liao Fusheng and Xu Liancheng were locked in a standoff, Lu Feng also broke through the encirclement amidst the chaos and arrived at Ren Xuanfei, who was lying on the ground, weak and unable to get up. His face was full of worry.

"Damn it! These damned Yun family traitors and demonic cultists, I'll slaughter you all one by one in a minute!"

Looking at Ren Xuanfei, who was covered in wounds and stained with blood, Lu Feng frowned and a murderous aura appeared in his eyes.

Although he and Ren Xuanfei were not a real couple, they had already been in a marital relationship!

Moreover, Lu Feng has always been a compassionate person. Whether it is his former fiancée Ye Yun, his apprentice Lin Xiaoyu whom he took in halfway through his life, or Ren Xuanfei in front of him, each of them is his exclusive property and he will not allow anyone to touch or harm them!

Therefore, seeing that Consort Ren Xuanfei had been severely injured by Yun Wuhui, Lu Feng was naturally enraged for the sake of his beloved, and his murderous intent was fully revealed as he was ready to kill all enemies!

"Lu, Lu Feng...?!"

At this moment, Ren Xuanfei, who was breathing weakly, slowly opened her eyes. When she realized that she was leaning against Lu Feng's chest, she couldn't help but be slightly surprised, "You, how did you get here...?"

"By the way, is Father Emperor alright...?"

Ren Xuanfei's lips were tightly closed, and her pretty face was pale, indicating that her internal injuries were very serious. However, she endured the pain without making a sound, and was more concerned about Ren Tianxing's safety.

"Silly girl, your father-in-law... cough cough, His Majesty is alright."

Seeing that the first thing Ren Xuanfei did after waking up was to inquire about Ren Tianxing's condition, Lu Feng's eyes also flashed with a hint of pity. He then gently comforted her, his tone unusually tender, "Don't worry, with me by your side, everything will be alright..."

"As for these Yun family traitors and demonic cultists, I will make them pay a bloody price!"

Lu Feng's eyes flashed with even more killing intent, like a god of death returning from hell!

Although he arrived a step too late and was unable to protect Consort Ren Xuan immediately, her perseverance and solid cultivation still exceeded Lu Feng's expectations.

Yun Wu Hui's strike just now was not only a full-force attack, but it almost severed all of Ren Xuanfei's eight extraordinary meridians, yet she is still clinging to life!

It is evident that although Ren Xuanfei's cultivation level was not high, she had already mastered the Ren clan's ancestral technique, "Heavenly Wind Spirit Phoenix Technique," to perfection. Otherwise, she would not have been able to hold out until Lu Feng arrived!
