"Hey..." Before anyone else could make a move, Ling sneered and took the initiative.
Shattering Tendons and Breaking Bones Finger!
With a single finger pointed out, a strong sound of air being pierced echoed in the air as it directly aimed at Zhang the Elder. Seeing that the Vice Leader had already made a move, the others naturally did not hesitate and engaged in battle with the disciples of the Zhang and Ye families.
Seeing that Ling and the others had already taken action, Chen Li sighed and also made his move. Chen Li's attack was quite insidious; he did not use any Martial Arts, but instead waved his hand in the air, releasing a faint fragrance. This scent was pleasant to smell, but it was actually derived from the highly toxic Fragrant Lotus, which could affect anyone below the Yang Spirit Realm to a certain extent.
"Quick, hold your breath." After catching a whiff of the faint fragrance in the air, Ye Wusheng's expression changed as he warned everyone.
"Haha, how could you possibly avoid Old Chen's poison? Just wait to die!" Upon sensing that Chen Li had released poison into the air, Ling burst into laughter. This was a toxin that could leave people weak and numb all over; even a strong individual at the Earth Soul Realm Pinnacle could resist it slightly, but their combat effectiveness would still drop significantly.
"Helmsman, here is the antidote for the fragrant poison; you should take it quickly!" Chen Li approached Xing Chen and handed an antidote to both Xing Chen and Yuer.
"Don't they need to take the antidote?" After taking the antidote, Xing Chen looked towards Ling and the others and asked slowly.
"They have been given something on their clothes that can counteract the poison, so they won't be affected," Chen Li replied while glancing at the branch disciples.
"If you have such means, why didn't you use them earlier?" Xing Chen raised an eyebrow. Although Chen Li was only at the early stage of the Earth Soul Realm, with this ability alone he could easily eliminate the Zhang and Ye families. Yet for such a long time, those families had been fighting against Starry Branch, causing significant losses to their branch.
"Helmsman, it's not that I don't want to act; it's just that if I did so, the forces behind these two families would definitely intervene. At that point, things wouldn't be so easy to resolve," Chen Li said with a bitter smile. He wished to eliminate these two families, but both had powerful backing, which made him cautious.
"Yuer, go help out." Fixating on Ye Wusheng, who had remained inactive, just as he was about to make a move, Xing Chen signaled to Yuer beside him.
"Yes, Young Master Chen," Yuer replied with a smile. She then swiftly moved in front of Ye Wusheng, blocking his path.
"I didn't expect that Starry Branch would have another strong fighter." Ye Wusheng looked seriously at the smiling girl blocking his way. Although his realm was slightly higher than hers, he did not dare to act recklessly.
First, due to the poison released by Chen Li, his combat power has decreased by about 20 to 30 percent, so he has no confidence in making a move at this moment.
Second, his relationship with the Zhang Family is not strong enough for him to risk his life for them, so he plans to observe the situation for now.
Yuer still wore a smile on her face as she stood in front of Ye Wusheng, neither speaking nor making a move, clearly just there to restrain him.
"Ye Wusheng, why aren't you making a move? If I get killed by them, do you think you'll have any good outcome?" Seeing Ye Wusheng hesitate to act, the Zhang Family Elder couldn't help but shout.
Ye Wusheng's expression changed slightly; the statement was quite accurate. If the Zhang Family were really wiped out because of this, the Ye Family would definitely not have a good outcome either.
"What? Do you want to fight me?" Yuer looked at Ye Wusheng with a smile, as if she wasn't worried at all about him making a move.
"This young lady is smiling. The Zhang Family and I are not related; how could I possibly fight for them against Starry Branch?" After a moment of silence, Ye Wusheng finally revealed a faint smile.
"I assume this young lady is the new Helmsman of Starry Branch! This time our Ye Family was misled by the Zhang Family and got dragged into this mess. I hope Helmsman won't take offense and let us leave," Ye Wusheng turned to look at Xing Chen and smiled slightly.
"What? You come to my Starry Branch and cause such a ruckus, and now you want to leave just like that?" Xing Chen stared coldly at Ye Wusheng, his words devoid of any emotion.
"Hehe, our Ye Family will definitely provide sufficient compensation." Ye Wusheng clearly understood the principle of not suffering losses unnecessarily. He smiled and took off the Storage Ring on his hand, saying to Xing Chen, "Consider what's inside as our compensation this time. I hope Helmsman will be magnanimous and let us go."
"Ye Wusheng, you scoundrel! It was clearly you who incited me to come here; now you actually want to run away." Seeing Ye Wusheng endure humiliation and attempt to leave, the Zhang Elder was furious.
It was Ye Wusheng who initially suggested taking this opportunity to extort Starry Branch; unexpectedly, it ended up with him coming here to offer gifts instead and risking his own life in the process.
"Thunderstorm Whirlwind Leg—" Just as the Zhang Elder was cursing loudly, Ling seized the opportunity. A cold light flashed in his eyes as he kicked fiercely at the Zhang Elder's chest.
Bang!
Zhang the Elder felt a blur before his eyes, followed by a sharp pain in his chest, and his body was sent flying backward.
"Hey, old fool, you dare to be distracted while fighting me," Ling said with a bloodthirsty smile as he watched Zhang the Elder fly out and continuously spit blood.
"What does Helmsman think?" Ye Wusheng paid no attention to Zhang the Elder's insults, not even glancing at him, his gaze fixed firmly on Xing Chen.
"For this matter, I can let it go without holding it against you. If you want to leave, it's simple: just leave all your Storage Rings behind, and then you can go," Xing Chen said with a slight smirk, revealing a cold smile.
"Isn't what Helmsman is doing a bit excessive? Although we were at fault this time and it's reasonable for you to ask for compensation, this... seems a bit much, doesn't it?" Ye Wusheng's expression turned cold. He initially thought that as long as they paid a small price, leaving wouldn't be an issue. However, he didn't expect this new Helmsman of Starry Branch to be so ruthless; such a person would be wasted not becoming a bandit.
"If you think it's excessive, you don't have to comply with my demands! In that case, I can just take your Storage Rings from your corpses; it would be the same for me," Xing Chen said with a hint of mockery on his face.
Ye Wusheng lowered his head, his expression shifting unpredictably. Honestly, he wanted to fight against Starry Branch, but as the head of a family, he had to consider his clan's interests. If he truly fought against Starry Branch, the number of people who could survive and return home from those he brought would definitely not exceed three, including himself. Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't afford to fight.
"Fine, let's do it your way." Ye Wusheng glared at Xing Chen, then said through gritted teeth: "Ye Family disciples, stop!"
Seeing that Ye Wusheng had actually compromised with Xing Chen, Zhang the Elder's face instantly turned ashen. He knew that the people from Starry Branch would definitely not let him go; everyone he brought along, including himself, would likely die here today.
"Now can we leave?" After handing all the Storage Rings over to Yuer, Ye Wusheng said darkly to Xing Chen.
"Feel free," Xing Chen replied without looking back at Ye Wusheng and the others. Instead, he shouted loudly at the branch disciples: "Today, keep all these people from the Zhang Family here; not one can escape. Afterwards, we will divide these Storage Rings among ourselves."
"Yes, Helmsman!"
As the saying goes, great rewards bring forth brave men; the ancient wisdom was undoubtedly correct. As soon as Xing Chen finished speaking, the people from Starry Branch crazily attacked the disciples of the Zhang Family. Their combat power seemed to have inexplicably increased significantly, instantly causing injuries among the disciples of the Zhang Family.
"Ye Wusheng, if I can survive this calamity, I will make you and your Ye Family pay dearly," Zhang the Elder shouted madly at the departing Ye Wusheng.
"Old fool, you should pay the price first!" At this moment, Ling Nuo walked over with a smile. Zhang the Elder, who had already been severely injured by Ling, looked at the approaching Ling with fear and began to retreat.
"Wait, I, the Zhang Family, am willing to compensate for what has happened this time." Seeing Ling standing in front of him, Zhang the Elder quickly shouted, his gaze also shifting towards Xing Chen.
"No need to waste words with him, just take him down." Xing Chen said expressionlessly as he glanced at Ling and Chen Li.
"You... don't bully me too much." Zhang the Elder shouted in a fierce yet cowardly manner.
Ignoring Zhang the Elder's words, Ling and the others continued to advance. Zhang the Elder no longer retreated; a hint of madness appeared on his face.
"Disciples of the Zhang Family, it is my fault that everyone has fallen into danger this time. However, even if we die, we must not let our enemies have it easy. Everyone... use your final killing move!" Zhang the Elder said as he slowly closed his eyes, tears falling from his murky old eyes.
"Yes, Patriarch!" The disciples of the Zhang Family all showed a crazed expression at this moment. They knew they were doomed this time and were determined to make their enemies pay the price.
"Quickly take them down..." Seeing the madness on everyone's faces, Chen Li's expression changed instantly. He understood that these people were about to unleash the final killing move of Earth Soul Realm warriors, and if they really did so, everyone present would likely die here.
"Earth's Power—" Just as the disciples of the Zhang Family were about to act, they all shouted in unison.
