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!"

"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!"
