Zhang Bowen said with a smile:
"Let me remind you."
"You two are no match for them."
He pointed at Li Kong and said to Sato Juro:
"Among all the Martial Saints present, you can only defeat him."
Then he pointed at the old woman from the Liu family and said:
"Mr. Suzuki, please help me hold her off."
Finally, he said to Mi Chuan:
"You can help me deal with one of the perverts from the Wei family!"
Mi Chuan also said with a laugh:
"I can only hold off Wei Xingchen; I'm no match for the other one."
Zhang Bowen gave a strange smile.
"Someone else will help us deal with the other one."
The battle situation instantly shifted.
Mi Chuan, holding the Tai'a Divine Sword, activated his consummate domain.
A wrathful Vajra guardian wielding a giant sword materialized behind him.
Simultaneously, a layer of protective energy appeared on his body.
He looked at Wei Xingchen of the Wei family and swung his sword down.
A vast golden sword energy, dozens of meters long, shot forth.
Seeing that he had been actively targeted, Wei Xingchen narrowed his eyes.
"Young man from the Mi family, it seems you've set your sights on me!"
"Let this old man experience your Vajra Subduing Demon Sword and Innate Protective Energy."
Mi Chuan, as the champion of the previous World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament,
was quite famous in Great Xia.
His Vajra Subduing Demon Sword combined with Innate Protective Energy had defeated a host of Martial Masters at his level in Great Xia,
making him the strongest below the Martial Saint realm,
with a high probability of becoming a Martial Saint in the future.
Unfortunately, the day after winning the championship, this guy ran off to the Western Continent.
And no one expected that after a few years, he would already have become a Martial Saint.
Wei Xingchen easily dodged Mi Chuan's attack.
With a wave of his hand, he shot out dozens of steel needles.
The needles penetrated halfway into the Innate Protective Energy before being firmly held in place.
Mi Chuan was startled.
"The old monster from the Wei family is this strong!"
He hurriedly looked at Wei Xingchen with a serious expression and said:
"If I lose to you later, you must not kill me."
"I can surrender and join the Wei family. A Martial Saint still has considerable value."
"I'm serious, not joking."
Wei Xingchen snorted coldly.
Brandishing his soft sword, he unleashed dozens of sword energy slashes.
On the other side, Li Kong was also targeted by Sato Juro.
The Liu family ancestor, Liu Meng, was also entangled by Suzuki Yoken.
The remaining seven Martial Saints had no time to worry about the three who were pinned down.
The seven joined forces and charged towards the primary target.
Zhang Bowen!
The priority was to kill Zhang Bowen first.
Whether these three lived, died, or escaped was unimportant.
What mattered was not letting Zhang Bowen escape again this time.
With Zhang Bowen severely injured before them, this was the best opportunity to kill him.
Six of the Martial Saints did not want to miss this chance.
Only one person was indifferent to Zhang Bowen's life or death.
Zhang Bowen revealed an excited smile, looking at the seven charging Martial Saints.
"It's time to turn the tide of the battle!"
Just then, a sudden change occurred.
Feng Tengyun, a Martial Saint from the covert division of the Martial Arts Guild, suddenly struck the Wei Haoran beside him with his palm.
"Energy-Draining Technique!"
This Martial Saint from the Wei family spat out a mouthful of blood.
He turned his head in disbelief to look at Feng Tengyun beside him.
His qi and blood cultivation, caught off guard by Feng Tengyun's sneak attack,
had directly fallen to the Martial Master realm.
"I never imagined you were also one of Zhang Bowen's hidden cards."
"Why have you betrayed Great Xia?!"
Feng Tengyun's expression remained unchanged,
as if he had done something trivial.
"My reason is simple."
"Eternal life!"
Zhang Bowen laughed heartily.
He said to Liu Shen, the current president of the Martial Arts Guild:
"Liu Shen! Didn't expect this, did you!"
"You've been so determined to kill me, and tried so many times."
"Once again, you're going to fail."
Liu Shen's face turned ugly.
The betrayal of his old partner Feng Tengyun was something he had never anticipated.
The reason given made him clench his fists involuntarily.
"What a fine 'eternal life'!"
The current battle situation had completely exceeded his expectations,
resulting in an outcome he had not foreseen.
Of the final seven Martial Saints attacking Zhang Bowen, Feng Tengyun's betrayal caused Wei Haoran of the Wei family to fall to the Martial Master realm.
Suddenly, their seven were down by two, and they had gained an extra enemy.
Feng Tengyun made another move, intercepting another Martial Saint belonging to the Martial Arts Guild.
"Old partner, my apologies!"
In the end, only four Martial Saints remained to besiege Zhang Bowen.
Liu Shen's eyes turned sinister.
He knew killing Zhang Bowen this time might not be so easy.
But it wasn't completely hopeless either.
"Hold on! Don't let Zhang Bowen escape!"
"Great Sage Wei Qianqiu and the Lone Sword Demon from the Sacred Capital will surely not lose!"
"I made arrangements beforehand! As long as the Sacred Capital is safe, the Lone Sword Demon will come to support us!"
Zhang Bowen also shouted loudly:
"Did you all hear that?"
"If that Sword Demon arrives, we'll all die!"
"Find a way to kill them quickly!"
"Hahaha..."
His words were heard not only by everyone present,
but also clearly by Wang Zun on the other side of Kunlun City.
He was secretly shocked.
He never expected the battle situation to change so dramatically.
Originally, it was eleven people ambushing Zhang Bowen.
Now it had turned into nine against five.
Wang Zun looked at Su Canghai, who had been tying him up, and said solemnly:
"It seems you were right."
"One of us might die today."
After speaking, he closed his eyes.
The Taiji diagram of his martial arts phantom beneath his feet began to tremble violently,
occasionally manifesting a Bagua diagram.
Su Canghai swiftly retreated.
"The Harmony of Heaven and Man Taijiquan!"
He remembered this was a martial art even Zhang Bowen feared.
But soon, Su Canghai noticed
Wang Zun's realm was unstable.
It seemed he couldn't fully utilize the Harmony of Heaven and Man level of Taijiquan.
Su Canghai raised his hand and struck Wang Zun, who was trying to enter the Harmony of Heaven and Man state.
The Icy Divine Palm landed squarely on Wang Zun.
The sound of ice shattering mixed with the crack of bones.
Wang Zun's chest bone collapsed, and he was forced back dozens of meters.
Blood continuously gushed from his mouth and nostrils.
Just as Su Canghai was about to press his advantage and finish off Wang Zun,
he saw the martial arts domain beneath the other's feet
had transformed into a complete Taiji Bagua diagram.
Wang Zun coughed violently, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.
He had had no choice earlier.
If he couldn't enter the Harmony of Heaven and Man state,
he would remain trapped here by Su Canghai.
Only by using the Harmony of Heaven and Man Taijiquan could he defeat Su Canghai.
Unfortunately, his control over the Harmony of Heaven and Man was very unstable.
He needed a mind free of distractions to have a chance of entering that state.
Taking Su Canghai's palm strike head-on, though it severely injured him, had also barely stabilized his spirit.
The crisis of death made him recognize the reality before him, no longer anxiously preoccupied with the other battle.
Wang Zun slowly opened his eyes, looked at Su Canghai, and said calmly:
"What happened to Su Yuanshan, I am sorry!"
"But for the sake of Great Xia, today I can only kill you!"

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
