At this moment, the Left Alliance Leader felt a pang of despair. He had been relentlessly searching for the means Old Heavenly Master had left behind to deal with him.
It turned out that Old Heavenly Master's method was within him all along, a hidden danger planted over twenty years ago.
It was a pity that for more than two decades, he had never suspected it, merely believing that recovering his injuries would allow him to move forward unhindered.
He never imagined that as soon as he employed the forbidden arts, the method would reveal itself.
"In the end, I was still outmaneuvered by you!"
The Left Alliance Leader declared with resentment, "But you cannot possibly crush me. The pain you inflicted upon me, I will repay a hundredfold to your disciples!"
With that, he charged directly towards Yun Fan, roaring.
Yun Fan met his attack with all his might, but at this moment, he harbored a bad premonition. His forbidden arts were about to expire.
Therefore, his exhaustion was becoming apparent.
Seeing this, Zhao Feiyue and Ye Ji attacked the Left Alliance Leader from both sides with all their strength.
"Scram!"
The Left Alliance Leader bellowed, repelling the two women with a single blow. His power was immense, having reached the very apex of the Foundation Establishment realm.
Even with the full might of the two women, they could not halt his advance.
At this moment, Yun Fan gritted his teeth and persevered. He naturally observed the Left Alliance Leader's condition and deduced that his peak strength would not last long.
If they could just endure until the Left Alliance Leader's forbidden arts ended, victory might still be possible.
"Die!"
Zhao Feiyue shouted, launching a full-force attack.
Ye Ji also did not hesitate. Although the Left Alliance Leader was incredibly powerful now, and a single misstep could lead to their demise,
They had no other choice. They had to alleviate Yun Fan's burden.
"Now, the three of you are as insignificant as ants before this Alliance Leader. Killing you is simply too easy!"
The Left Alliance Leader roared with laughter and unleashed his full power.
At this moment, his aura was overwhelming. Even from a distance, Ye Ji and Zhao Feiyue found it difficult to breathe under the pressure of his presence.
For Yun Fan, it was even worse. As the Left Alliance Leader was focusing his attention on him, he had to endure at least twice the pressure.
"Fight!"
Yun Fan shattered the Left Alliance Leader's aura and unleashed a punch, channeling all his strength into it.
With the two women distracting the Left Alliance Leader, his punch landed squarely on the Left Alliance Leader.
"Bang!"
The punch carried the momentum of a surging tide. It was powerful enough to instantly kill any Sect Leader-level expert.
But when it struck the Left Alliance Leader, it was found that he remained utterly unmoved.
He turned and said to Yun Fan with a mocking smile, "This punch of yours, to me, is no different from an itch!"
With that, he flicked out a finger, piercing Yun Fan's body.
"Unh!"
Yun Fan let out a muffled groan. The sharpness of the finger was too immense; even he could not withstand it.
"Junior Brother!"
"Little Brother!"
The two women cried out in horror, channeling all their fury towards the Left Alliance Leader.
The Left Alliance Leader was under attack from both sides, but at his current level, his body was nigh-invincible. Thus, even the combined efforts of the two women could not break through his defenses.
"You still dare to fight me? You are simply overestimating yourselves!"
The Left Alliance Leader roared and attacked the two women with his full might. All the pressure was now focused on them, inadvertently giving Yun Fan a moment to catch his breath.
In the Left Alliance Leader's eyes, Yun Fan was now as good as crippled, and no longer the greatest threat.
Yun Fan's face contorted in pain. He had been severely wounded by the Left Alliance Leader's finger, and his forbidden arts were nearing their end.
However, the situation had not only failed to improve, but it had worsened.
"No, I must land a devastating blow. Otherwise, we will surely perish!"
Yun Fan thought anxiously.
Soon, he found a solution. Indeed, the Left Alliance Leader was now an almost invincible expert.
Therefore, even if he were to strike with all his might, it would not pose a significant threat to the Left Alliance Leader.
Fortunately, the Left Alliance Leader's old wounds were recurring. If he could unleash his final move and strike at the Left Alliance Leader's injured area, perhaps the situation could turn around.
Seeing that the two women could not hold on much longer, Yun Fan's mind stirred, and a powerful aura erupted from him.
After consuming a Pill of Divine Medicine, his injuries began to heal rapidly.
"Now!"
The next moment, Yun Fan struck with lightning speed, leaving only an afterimage in his place.
"You two can now die!"
The Left Alliance Leader sneered and lunged towards the two women. He was confident that with this attack, they would either die or be severely wounded, after which he could easily seize control of the situation.
"Not good!"
The two women had a premonition of danger. They had nowhere to retreat from this attack.
However, at this critical moment.
"Bang!"
Yun Fan arrived in front of the Left Alliance Leader and struck his wound with a palm. He was then sent flying by the Left Alliance Leader's counter-attack.
"Kill!"
Without any hesitation, the two women seized the opportunity while the Left Alliance Leader was stunned and lunged towards his wounds.
"Die!"
The Left Alliance Leader instantly unleashed two palms, severely wounding the two women.
Just as everyone believed that the Left Alliance Leader only needed to strike one more time for all three to die, the Left Alliance Leader froze in place.
His body began to tremble.
After a moment.
"Ah!"
The Left Alliance Leader let out a scream, then suddenly knelt on the ground. Looking at his injuries, they discovered that the wounds had begun to crack open.
Countless streams of blood poured from the wounds.
"Left Alliance Leader!"
Everyone was shocked. No one had anticipated such a turn of events. At this moment, the Left Alliance Leader himself had reached a state of extreme weakness.
His condition was not much better than the trio's. The only difference was that the trio were at their last gasp, with nothing left but to await their fate.
The Left Alliance Leader, however, due to his immense power, could still hold on precariously.
At this moment, the Left Alliance Leader, supporting his tottering body, stood up and slowly walked towards the three.
"Even the methods he left behind cannot defeat me. I am invincible!"
The Left Alliance Leader taunted the three with a sneer. "But you are different. All that awaits you now is death!"
The three glared at the Left Alliance Leader with anger. They had ultimately fallen short by a single step.
"If you have the guts, kill me first! Don't kill my Junior Brother!"
Zhao Feiyue shouted at the Left Alliance Leader.
"Left Alliance Leader, if you are a man, kill me!"
At this moment, Ye Ji also began to provoke him. Their actions were merely a desperate hope to help Yun Fan.
"Don't worry, not a single one of you will escape!"
The Left Alliance Leader sneered. "I will send you all to hell, neatly arranged!"
With that, he was about to finish off Yun Fan.
"Stop!"
Just then, a shout came from the back of the crowd. This person was none other than Ye Qingcheng.
Upon seeing Ye Qingcheng, the members of the World Alliance attempted to apprehend her.
However, as soon as they moved, the Left Alliance Leader waved his hand casually, and those who had just moved to seize Ye Qingcheng exploded on the spot.
"Hiss!"
Everyone gasped. They couldn't understand why the Left Alliance Leader would save Ye Qingcheng. They all knew that the Left Alliance Leader never harmed his own people.
Yet, this time, for the sake of this unremarkable woman, he had struck against his own kin.
It was not just that they didn't understand; even Yun Fan and the other two were bewildered. Yun Fan had intended to warn Ye Qingcheng to flee quickly.
But at this moment, he held back his words.
At this point, Ye Qingcheng arrived in front of Yun Fan and stood before him.
"Don't kill him!"
Ye Qingcheng stated directly.
But the Left Alliance Leader said, "Qingcheng, don't be willful. We are only one step away from victory. After I kill these three, China will be under the control of your father and daughter!"
"What?"
At this moment, everyone present was stunned. No one had expected Ye Qingcheng to be the Left Alliance Leader's daughter.
Even Ye Ji, who had adopted her, was greatly surprised.
At this point, Ye Qingcheng said, "I call you Father, please don't be so misguided anymore. What you are doing is wrong. Please don't continue to err!"
Hearing this, the Left Alliance Leader shook his head. "There is no right or wrong. Only the fate of the loser and the winner. As the winner, I have the right to decide everything!" Su Dan Novel Network
"You don't understand now, but you will in the future!"
The Left Alliance Leader said to Ye Qingcheng, "Move aside!"
"Impossible, unless I die!"
Ye Qingcheng resolutely stood in front of Yun Fan. At this moment, Yun Fan was deeply moved.
The Left Alliance Leader then said, "It's fine if you don't move, because you still can't block me!"
Just then, the Left Alliance Leader suddenly attacked. Before Ye Qingcheng could react, he knocked her unconscious to the ground.
"Kid, this time, no one can save you!"
The Left Alliance Leader taunted Yun Fan. "Aren't you the current leader of the Ghost Valley sect? Today, I will ensure your Ghost Valley sect's lineage is cut off!"
With that, he attacked. However, just as Yun Fan closed his eyes, awaiting death, a graceful figure directly blocked the Left Alliance Leader's strike.
The already weakened Left Alliance Leader could only match the strength of the newcomer.
When everyone reacted, they realized that standing before Yun Fan was a woman from the West. It was Dai Qisi.
Dai Qisi had arrived long ago. Although Yun Fan was handsome, she had no intention of intervening. After all, her purpose in coming to China was solely for the Ghost Valley leader.
However, when the Left Alliance Leader revealed that Yun Fan was the Ghost Valley leader, she acted almost without hesitation.
Upon getting so close to Yun Fan, she suddenly discovered that the other love蛊 (love charm) was also within Yun Fan's body. This meant she had not saved the wrong person.
As everyone pondered Dai Qisi's identity, Zhao Feiyue turned her head away. This woman was her sworn enemy.
An enmity that could never be resolved, even for eternity. Naturally, she did not want her enemy to see her in such a disheveled state.
"Who are you? Why are you meddling in my affairs?"
The Left Alliance Leader asked coldly. If not for the opponent's formidable strength, he would have already attacked.
Dai Qisi replied, "I have no interest in your affairs, but if you dare to kill my person, then I must intervene!"
"Your person?"
Everyone was stunned, unsure of what she meant. Let alone them, even Yun Fan was bewildered. He didn't seem to know Dai Qisi!
Ye Ji cast a look of displeasure.
She had no idea when Yun Fan had managed to charm another Western woman.
"Since that is the case, then do not blame this Alliance Leader for being impolite!"
The Left Alliance Leader, using his remaining strength, attempted to defeat Dai Qisi within a few moves.
But Dai Qisi's strength was considerable, comparable to Zhao Feiyue's. The difference was that Zhao Feiyue was already at her limit.
Whereas Dai Qisi was at her peak. This was a case of arriving at the opportune moment.
The current Left Alliance Leader could only match her at best, but after three moves, he would struggle. His decline had reached an irreversible point.
"In the end, I have lost!"
The Left Alliance Leader sighed mournfully. This plan, prepared for over twenty years, had ultimately ended in failure.
He only regretted Yun Fan's incredible luck, like a chain of rescues, one after another.
At this moment, he no longer attacked Dai Qisi, nor did he think of killing Yun Fan, for it was impossible to succeed.
Therefore, he directly scooped up the unconscious Ye Qingcheng and quickly retreated.
"Help me save her!"
Yun Fan pleaded with Dai Qisi.
But Dai Qisi remained indifferent. "What has her life or death got to do with me?"
Alright! This left Yun Fan speechless. However, he thought that since Ye Qingcheng was the Left Alliance Leader's daughter, he wouldn't kill her, would he?
Yun Fan harbored no worries about the Left Alliance Leader's escape, as the wounds left by his master on the Left Alliance Leader had fully erupted.
Even if he escaped, he would not live much longer.
The remaining individuals surrendered one after another. After all, the tide had turned. If they resisted to the death now, only death awaited them.
Besides, they lacked the spirit for such defiance.
At this moment, Dai Qisi glanced at Yun Fan with satisfaction, feeling very pleased. After settling her score with Zhao Feiyue, she could take Yun Fan back to the West to get married.
"Dai Qisi, why are you here?"
Zhao Feiyue said weakly, "Ten years ago, Master forbade you from setting foot in China!"
"That old fellow. Ten years have passed, why should he control me!"
Dai Qisi said dismissively. "I have come to China not only to take Junior Brother away, but also to settle our old score!"
Hearing this, Yun Fan finally understood. It turned out that Dai Qisi was his Senior Sister. He had already guessed who she was.
It was likely their Fourth Senior Sister, who had a contentious relationship with their Third Senior Sister. As for the origins and identities of their First and Second Senior Sisters, he still had no idea.
"You wish!"
It wasn't just Zhao Feiyue who spoke up, but Ye Ji too. Was it possible for her to quietly take Yun Fan away?
Did she not even consider them?
"Now, it's not up to you to decide!"
Dai Qisi stepped forward and cupped Zhao Feiyue's chin. "You are now as pathetic as a stray dog. Killing you would be as simple as snapping my fingers!"
At this moment, the eyes of the two women blazed with anger. Their internal strife had begun in Ghost Valley, and now their animosity had reached its peak.
Zhao Feiyue said angrily, "I am at my weakest now, so it is indeed easy for you to kill me. When I was at my peak, defeating you was as simple as drinking water!"
Hearing this, Dai Qisi scoffed, "Zhao Feiyue, you are as arrogant and ignorant as ever. Didn't you say it was unfair? Then I will give you this opportunity. When you recover, I will fight you to the death!"
Dai Qisi did not take advantage of Zhao Feiyue's weakened state but gave her an opportunity.
"You wait for me! When I recover, I will make you regret this decision!"
Yun Fan listened speechlessly, thinking to himself how could his Third Senior Sister be so stubborn! What if Dai Qisi went back on her word and finished her off now.
However, Dai Qisi's character was indeed quite noble.
Ye Ji's gaze was complex. She remained silent, not worried about another person vying for her "little man."
After all, she was already the biggest winner. One must know contentment.
At this moment, Dai Qisi said to Yun Fan, "Junior Brother, you don't have to wait long. After I settle this with her, I will take you back to the West!"
Yun Fan was instantly speechless. He had no intention of going to the West! Was this Fourth Senior Sister, whom he had never met, being too proactive?
...
Within the secret forbidden grounds of the World Alliance, Ye Qingcheng quietly awoke.
