Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

”Hmph, spare my life? Do you think you’re qualified? Can you kill me?”

Zhan Pengfei’s face flickered with sinister killing intent. The long blade in his hand suddenly swept out, with blade intentions wantonly crisscrossing, gathering and dispersing, as if they grew eyes, shooting out in all directions. A few black-clad men entangled with the Huang family’s guards were caught off guard and were sliced by the blade energy, dead as could be.

”Zhan Pengfei, you’re seeking death.”

The black-clad man, upon seeing this scene unfold, immediately felt a rush of rage. These people were the elite of the Tang family, handpicked talents destined to reach the middle stage of Mythical and possibly even the late stage. They were the most elite force of the Tang family, brought out only to deal with Yama Palace and to vent their wrath. Normally, the Tang family wouldn’t deploy these elites.

Moreover, these individuals were fiercely loyal to the Tang family. No matter how strong they became in the future, their loyalty to the Tang family was assured, with no fear of betrayal. But now, several of them had been slain by Zhan Pengfei, making the black-clad man’s heart feel as if it were bleeding with pain.

”Zhan Pengfei, since you’re ignorant of your predicament, let me send you on your way now.”

The black-clad man roared continuously, his True Qi bursting skyward, a surge of True Qi erupting from his body, coalescing behind him into a human-shaped qi with facial features seemingly identical to his own. It exuded a rolling poisonous aura with immense power and a strong stench, causing dizziness and a hazy state of mind in anyone who inhaled it.

”Not good, it’s poisonous, everyone retreat immediately.”

Zhan Pengfei’s face suddenly changed dramatically. He shouted, as his body’s True Qi erupted simultaneously, forming a True Qi Protection Shield enveloping him, repelling the intrusion of the poisonous aura.

Huang Feiyu and Xue Bing also retreated. Xue Bing took out a small porcelain bottle, pouring out two pills, swallowing one herself and handing one to Huang Feiyu.

These were given to her by Lu Tianxing when she came to Xiangjiang, a Detoxification Pill developed by Mandala. Even though the black-clad man’s poisonous True Qi was intense, it had no effect on Huang Feiyu and Xue Bing, who took the pills.

However, even though Huang Feiyu and Xue Bing were unharmed, a few of the Huang family’s guards who didn’t react in time were instantly enveloped by the poison, a layer of blackness visible on their faces. They fell limply to the ground, their bodies twitching briefly before falling silent.

”Hiss!”

Seeing this, the Huang family’s bodyguards who had long since retreated couldn’t help but gasp, their faces showing a trace of horror.

”A bunch of ants, Zhan Pengfei, today I’ll show you what it means for there to always be a higher sky. In my eyes, you’re just an ant, not worth mentioning.”

The black-clad man felt the fear-filled gazes around him, a deep disdain appearing on his face. The human-shaped poisonous aura behind him suddenly exploded, rushing towards Zhan Pengfei. Upon touching Zhan Pengfei’s Protective True Qi, it instantly triggered a massive explosion, creating a deep pit in the ground.

At this moment, everyone stopped, staring at the swirling poisonous pit in a daze.

The faces of Huang Feiyu and the others turned to extreme gloom, a coldness they had never felt before flooding them. If Zhan Pengfei was severely injured at this moment and no reinforcements arrived, their fate would be...

”Uncle Zhan.”

Huang Feiyu couldn’t help but shout.

”Hmph, trash is trash, not worth mentioning.”

The black-clad man sneered, intending to stride forward to see whether Zhan Pengfei was dead or alive, to finish him off completely.

”Whoosh!”

But just then, amidst the boundless poisonous aura, a sudden beam of light appeared out of nowhere, exuding a chilling aura, dispersing the rolling poison. A blade light cut through the void, slicing down at the black-clad man.

”What a fast blade.”

The black-clad man only saw a flash of white light before the blade light was already upon him, leaving him no chance to dodge. The blade, simple and direct like a master calligrapher’s stroke, had no flashy moves, aiming to kill with one strike.

This seemingly simple and direct move was actually reducing the complex to simplicity, more terrifying than any mystical art. Especially when executed by a martial artist at the middle stage of Mythical, it gave the feeling that nothing could withstand its cut.

”Hmph, a struggle to the death, not worth mentioning.”

The black-clad man was startled but remained expressionless. His True Qi erupted fiercely, surging like waves of the Yangtze River. Amidst the surging waves, bursts of dazzling True Qi shot out, penetrating the air, heading towards Zhan Pengfei.

”Boom!” ”Boom!” ”Boom!”

The blade energy and the True Qi clashed, producing extremely muffled sounds. Waves of True Qi swept outwards, uprooting the entire ground, leaving behind pits of True Qi and marks left by the blade energy.

”Crack!”

Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed as the blade energy in Zhan Pengfei’s hand could no longer withstand the repeated clashes and shattered into fragments.

”Die for me.”

Breaking the blade energy, the black-clad man’s face showed a trace of menacing killing intent. Without any hesitation, he rushed towards Zhan Pengfei, his figure like lightning, his five fingers spread, and sharp True Qi condensed in his palm, exuding an extreme sense of danger. It was clear he intended to eliminate Zhan Pengfei completely, denying him any chance to catch his breath.

At this moment, Zhan Pengfei was in extreme distress. The human-shaped poisonous aura earlier hadn’t killed him, but it had injured him severely. His once rosy face was now pale, with occasional black aura flashing across it, indicating that some poison had entered his system and couldn’t be expelled in a short time, resulting in his current state.

One could say Zhan Pengfei was now entirely spent, and even without the black-clad man’s intervention, a martial artist who had just entered the middle stage of Mythical could easily slay this seasoned middle-stage Mythical warrior.
