In an instant, the entire city erupted in chaos, with countless people surging towards the Black Emperor Pavilion. Because over ninety percent of the people in the Black Corner Region were scoundrels, they were determined not to let their lives be held in the hands of others...
"As long as you don't get close to the location of the Black Emperor Pavilion, and as long as you stay away from the Black Emperor Sect headquarters, we won't attack you," Su Qian, Wu Tianlang, and Hu Qian slowly stepped into the air and looked at the crowd surging around them, saying in a deep voice, "Of course, if you want to intervene, that's fine too... as long as you think you can survive!"
The people in the Black Corner Region were all intelligent. Seeing that Su Qian and his companions could stand in the air without relying on their battle qi wings, they quickly stopped and began moving without stopping towards the Black Emperor City wall.
Are you kidding me? Three Dou Zongs! The Black Emperor Sect only has one Dou Zong. If they go there, wouldn't they just be fodder for the Black Emperor Sect's attacks? Besides, that's Canaan Academy! They're all "good guys"; if they say they won't move, they definitely won't! Is it really necessary to risk their lives?
Watching the crowd surge in and recede like a tide, Mo Tianxing felt no emotion whatsoever. He had never placed any hope in the people of the Black Corner Region. The reason he had shouted that earlier was simply to test whether his trump card was effective. As for the result…
"Then let's go!" Looking at the three people standing in the air, Mo Tianxing went forward without hesitation, just like a warrior who knew it was impossible but still moved forward firmly.
only--
'It's over. It seems the sect leader really does have a way to escape!'
The Black Emperor Sect's Grand Elder, a nine-star Dou Huang, was utterly devastated upon seeing Mo Tianxing's actions. He had known Mo Tianxing for over ten years; how could he not know what kind of person Mo Tianxing was?
Unless Mo Tianxing was confident he could save his own life, he could not have been so brave even when facing a Dou Wang! Not to mention that he was now facing not just a Dou Wang or Dou Huang, but Canaan Academy with three Dou Zong, three Dou Huang, and more than ten Dou Wang!
While everyone from the Black Emperor Sect was charging towards the numerous powerful figures from Canaan Academy, this Grand Elder also approached Xiao Yan. However, upon first contact, he was eager to betray Mo Tianxing to save his own life. Therefore, as soon as he blocked Xiao Yan's path, he hurriedly spoke:
"Wait, I have something to say..."
"It's nothing more than Mo Tianxing having a way to escape. Do you think I'd believe that?" Xiao Yan interrupted him rudely, then swung his right fist, forcing him back a few steps. "Listen to what they're saying for yourself!"
"Don't make a move! I know how the sect leader escaped!"
"If you protect me, I'll tell you about the trump card the sect leader left behind!"
"Don't be impulsive, I..."
……
Amidst the chaotic battle, the sounds were incredibly noisy, but with the strength of the Black Emperor Sect's Grand Elder, he could still hear some familiar voices speaking. Without exception, these people were all trying to save their lives using "Mo Tianxing's escape method."
"I am the Grand Elder of the Black Emperor Sect!" Upon hearing those words, the Grand Elder was momentarily enraged and roared.
"Take a look over there yourself."
Xiao Yan pointed in a direction, where Zi Yan was wielding her Dragon Fist with great force, while her opponent was frantically dodging and struggling to say, "I really didn't lie to you. You heard it the other day, didn't you? I am Mo Ya, the young sect master of the Black Emperor Sect, and the person in the Black Emperor Sect who knows my father best!"
"Shut up! Who cares about you?!" Zi Yan, already annoyed by Mo Ya's constant frantic avoidance, roared after feeling Xiao Yan's gaze, "If you want to talk, stop hiding like an insect!"
Upon hearing Zi Yan's words, Mo Ya's face lit up with joy, as if he felt he might be able to save his life. He immediately stood still...
Bang!
Then Zi Yan's fist, covered in purple dragon scales, slammed mercilessly into Mo Ya's body, sending him flying hundreds of meters away.
After knocking Mo Ya away, Zi Yan turned around and glared fiercely at Xiao Yan. Then, she tapped the ground with her toes and shot out like a cannonball. She clenched her fist again and slammed it hard at Mo Ya, who had just stood up from the dust.
"Do you think your status is comparable to his?" After amusedly withdrawing his gaze, Xiao Yan's expression turned cold again, and he asked with a sneer.
"...It seems that unless I take you hostage, I have no way of leaving?" After seeing Mo Ya's miserable state, the Grand Elder finally gave up the idea of using information to save his own life, and his expression turned cold.
"...if you think you can do it."
Looking at his cold expression and hearing his confident words, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then realized that Mo Tianxing did not seem to have spread the news that Han Feng had been killed by him.
'Or maybe he thinks he can crush Han Feng with a flick of his wrist?' Xiao Yan, who had been calmly observing the situation during his fight with the Grand Elder, thought casually. 'Sigh, I wouldn't be surprised anywhere that someone looks down on an alchemist's fighting ability!'

"Should we believe what Canaan Academy says?" A bald Dou Huang asked in a deep voice from the crowd watching the chaotic battle between Canaan Academy and Black Emperor Sect from afar.
“I’m not entirely sure I believe what Canaan Academy has to say,” a long-haired Dou Huang replied.
"...Master Yao, what do you think?" A Dou Huang in blue robes remained silent for a moment, then turned his head to look at Master Yao, who was not far away.
"Trust Canaan Academy," Yao Fangzhu said calmly. "Putting aside their strength... the people at Canaan Academy are much more honest than you."
"Did Master Yao have a deal with Canaan Academy?" The long-haired Douhuang instantly realized.
"Otherwise what?" Yao Fangzhu glanced at him. "If I don't sell medicinal herbs to people from Canaan Academy... would you still dare to buy medicinal herbs from Qianyaofang?"
“…Heh, that’s true,” after a moment of silence, the long-haired Dou Huang chuckled. “If Thousand Medicine Workshop weren’t neutral, it wouldn’t be able to operate much in a place like the Black Corner Region…But then, that can only guarantee the safety of you, Yao Fangzhu, right?”
“If you feel unsafe, you can stay at Qianyaofang for a few more days after the battle ends,” Yan Mo said coldly. “However… one grade five medicinal herb per day.”
"Deal!" The long-haired Douhuang decisively agreed.
"...Take me with you." The bald Dou Huang spoke after a long silence.
"Me too."
"Me too!"
……
As soon as the bald-headed Dou Huang spoke, within a few breaths, all the other Dou Huangs around him chose to join.
'...Thank goodness Yan Xiao—no, thank goodness Mr. Xiao Yan is a truly reasonable person,' Yao Fangzhu thought to himself, looking at the many Dou Huangs who had been fooled by Yan Mo's words. 'Otherwise, the reputation of Qianyaofang would be completely ruined... No, wait, it seems like being unreasonable isn't a problem either?'
Blinking, Yao Fangzhu's eyes lit up as she recalled Xiao Yan's intention to bring Qianyaofang under his control, which he had shown a couple of days ago.
Indeed, remaining neutral in a place like the Black Corner Region is a good way to survive, but... having a sixth-grade alchemist on your side and being backed by Canaan Academy, a leading force whose strength far surpasses any other power in the Black Corner Region, is the best path to development!

Although Mo Tianxing had been able to easily deflect the attacks of Su Qian and his two companions, it was still quite difficult for him to actually face them. In fact, within just over ten minutes, Mo Tianxing had several wounds on his body.
However, these were merely physical wounds. For a Dou Zong like Mo Tianxing, such wounds would not affect his observation and judgment of the surrounding environment. Therefore, he was naturally able to clearly perceive that his son, the Great Elder of the Black Emperor Sect, and other elders of the Black Emperor Sect wanted to surrender.
Seeing Mo Tianxing's increasingly gloomy expression, Wu Tianlang sneered: "What? You've found that you rarely want to fight to the death, but your subordinates' desire to surrender is getting stronger and stronger, so you can't stand it?"
"Or are you really hoping that those Dou Huangs watching the show will stand up for you?" Hu Qian immediately sneered. "No way? You've been in the Black Corner Region for decades, you wouldn't actually have such a stupid idea, would you?"
Bang!
As if to refute Wu Tianlang and Hu Qian's words, Mo Tianxing, who was struggling to cope with the siege of Su Qian and the other two, forcefully took a palm strike from Su Qian and then retreated dozens of meters.
"Heh, do you think I would place my hopes on people like them?" After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Mo Tianxing looked at Su Qian and the other two, who had slowed their attacks, with a cold smile. "However, it's about time..." Mo Tianxing's fighting spirit surged out, and for a moment, Su Qian even felt that he was facing a Dou Zun powerhouse.
"According to what Elder Qian said, it has already begun, right?" Su Qian narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Mo Tianxing, whose aura was surging, with 'warfulness'.
"Never again..."
laugh!
Before he could finish speaking, an incredibly powerful blade of light tore through the air, severing Mo Tianxing's right arm cleanly at the root.
"Damn Xiao..." Mo Tianxing's eyes widened in fury as he looked at the storage ring on his severed right arm.
laugh!
Another blade of light ripped through the night sky, heading straight for Mo Tianxing. However, this time it simply sliced through the air. After all, Mo Tianxing, who had lost an arm, did not hesitate to reveal his trump card, allowing him to successfully "escape" the Black Emperor City, which was sealed off by space.
Chapter 349 Xiao Ding, Xiao Li
The Black Emperor Sect's Grand Elder stared blankly at the severed arm falling from the sky, then glanced at Xiao Yan opposite him, who had unleashed a blade of light that severed Mo Tianxing's arm at the root.
"You...you are a Dou Zong?!" After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a few words with some difficulty.
"Congratulations, you got it right." After catching Mo Tianxing's severed arm and removing the storage ring from it, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, then waved his hand, and a ball of crimson flame instantly engulfed the nine-star Dou Huang. "Zi Yan, do you need my help?"
After dealing with the Black Emperor Sect's Grand Elder, Xiao Yan turned to look at Zi Yan, who was locked in combat with Mo Ya, and asked.
"No, I can take care of this guy right away!" Zi Yan refused decisively.
Although Zi Yan had only recently broken through, her true form was the Ancient Void Dragon, so she still had absolute dominance over a five-star Dou Huang. At least Mo Ya was covered in injuries and looked pale, as if he might die on the spot, while Zi Yan was still full of energy and it was impossible to tell whether she had consumed any Dou Qi.
"He's in your hands now."
Medusa's voice rang in Xiao Yan's ears. When he turned around, Medusa had already handed over the three-star Dou Huang opponent to Xiao Yan, while she herself stepped into the torn void. Looking at the scene on the other side of the void... it seemed to be back at Canaan Academy.
"They're not willing to put in even the slightest effort..."
After muttering something, the crimson flame that had devoured the Grand Elder swirled across the battlefield, consuming all the Black Emperor Sect members except for Mo Ya.
Looking at the crimson flames that seemed to be swimming in the arena, the Dou Huangs standing behind Yao Fangzhu swallowed hard.
"Four Dou Zong... Master Yao, thank you very much this time." The long-haired Dou Huang swallowed hard and said.
Putting everything else aside, even just those few moves that severed Mo Tianxing's arm, he didn't think he could have survived unscathed. If he hadn't listened to the advice and not interfered in the battle between the Black Emperor Sect and Canaan Academy, he might have been cut down by that blade of light... Of course, he would more likely have been one of the passersby engulfed by flames.
"So, you don't need to stay at my Thousand Medicines Shop after this is over?" Shopkeeper Yao glanced at him casually and said.
“We still need to,” the long-haired Dou Huang said decisively. “Canaan Academy has won a great victory, and in the next few days they will definitely take over all of Black Emperor Sect’s business… at the very least, they will take away Black Emperor Sect’s inventory. If we’re the ones who upset them outside…”
Like the long-haired Dou Huang who was chuckling dryly, all the Dou Huangs nodded vigorously.
Who would have thought that Canaan Academy would send four Dou Zong to face the Black Emperor Sect? Three of them would directly confront Mo Tianxing, while one would hide in the shadows, waiting for Mo Tianxing to reveal his final trump card.
Although they ultimately failed to capture Mo Tianxing completely, they did manage to sever one of his arms... What if he happened to be nearby when Canaan Academy was taking inventory of the Black Emperor Sect's assets, and then accidentally revealed a greedy expression on his face...
They didn't think of themselves as Mo Tianxing, capable of cutting off their own tail to survive in the face of such a fierce attack!
'The less timid the better…' Yao Fangzhu muttered to himself, looking at the smirking faces of the several Dou Huangs. 'That way, when Qianyao Fang is taken over, they won't have any thought of resistance.'
Seeing Xiao Yan wave his hand and wipe out all the elders of the Black Emperor Sect, Yao Fangzhu was now just like Yan Mo a few days ago, eagerly anticipating that Xiao Yan would quickly take over her Thousand Medicine Workshop so that she could have the backing of a sixth-grade alchemist and Canaan Academy.

In a dark forest somewhere in the Black Corner Region, a crack suddenly appeared, and then a figure missing an arm flashed out from the crack, which then instantly closed.
"Damn it, damn it..."
After hastily sealing the broken part of his right arm to ensure no more blood flowed out, Mo Tianxing cursed, "Four Dou Zong...it's actually four Dou Zong!"
If he had known from the beginning that Xiao Yan was a Dou Zong, why would he have bothered to play along with Su Qian and the others? Running away from the start would have been his true nature!
"No, no, they did it on purpose..." Although he was still heartbroken over the Bodhi Incarnation Saliva and other treasures that he had recently obtained from the secret treasure and had not yet used, Mo Tianxing forced himself to forget about them and quickly calmed his anger.
“They did it on purpose; they must have known what I had in my hand…”
Looking down at the completely shattered jade piece in his palm, Mo Tianxing's brow twitched violently again. Although he knew before using it that this item, which had saved his life twice, would likely shatter after this use, seeing it actually break still weighed heavily on his heart.
Mo Tianxing, who was able to escape from the hands of a high-level Dou Zong, has completely disappeared. Now he is just an ordinary two-star Dou Zong with a missing arm!
"Perhaps Su Qian and the others don't know what the true form is, but they definitely know that I have an item that can help me escape from the spatial blockade..." Mo Tianxing glanced at the shattered jade piece one last time, then casually tossed it on the ground, muttering to himself.
"The first time I used it was in Zhongzhou. At that time, I didn't even have this name. So, the one they knew should be the second High Star Dou Zong..."
Even after decades, Mo Tianxing still felt a chill run down his spine when he recalled the powerful figure who sealed off space with a wave of his hand and annihilated dozens of Dou Huangs with a single breath.
"Wu Tianlang said that the dean of Canaan Academy is a Dou Zun... Is that the person who successfully advanced?" Recalling what Wu Tianlang had said before, Mo Tianxing frowned slightly.
