Wu Shattered Star River

Jiang Han was never one to accept fate. Forget Xing Gu wanting to kill him; even if the Jade Emperor wanted his life, if Jiang Han had the ability to fight back, he would disregard everything and battle first.

Though his body was immobilized, he instantly unleashed the Evolving Serpent Force Dissipation Art and activated the Fury of the Demon God.

His muscles swelled instantly, his eyes turned red, and a thick, baleful aura emanated from him. At that moment, he seemed to transform into a demon god.

He roared, throwing his fist upward with all his might.

Originally suppressed and unable to move, after unleashing the Fury of the Demon God, he could actually raise his arm, his fist slamming heavily into the golden longsword.

“Bang!”

A muffled explosion echoed as Jiang Han's body sank slightly, blood spurting from his fist.

But other than that, nothing happened. He used his fist to directly withstand the sword, yet his arm wasn't shattered, nor were his bones cleaved apart.

On the other hand, Xing Gu's golden, shimmering longsword was actually bounced back, and Xing Gu himself was also forced back, his hand trembling slightly, nearly losing his grip on the sword.

The power of Jiang Han's Hundredfold Injury Fist struck in waves, the violent force surging into the longsword, still reverberating and causing Xing Gu's arm to go numb.

“Ugh…”

The entire audience was moved, especially Lu Xingyu, Huang Ling, Guan Xinyue, and the others, who were even more shocked.

They were well aware of Xing Gu's combat strength. That sword strike just now had also utilized a powerful immortal technique, increasing its power tenfold, yet Jiang Han had actually withstood it?

“Fury of the Demon God!”

Lu Xingyu, with his extensive knowledge, quickly recognized the immortal technique Jiang Han had unleashed as the Fury of the Demon God. Even so, he was secretly astonished.

Was Jiang Han's physical body this strong? Comparable to an Immortal Venerable! Without such a powerful physical body, even if he unleashed the Fury of the Demon God, he wouldn't have been able to withstand that sword strike.

Thirteenth on the Hidden Dragon List—these rankings weren't arbitrary. After entering the top twenty of the Hidden Dragon List, each advancement became extremely difficult.

Jiang Han being able to withstand Xing Gu, did that mean he possessed the combat strength of the top twenty on the Hidden Dragon List?

“Buzz!”

While everyone was still immersed in shock, Jiang Han retrieved the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. Then, a black shadow flashed, and the Blackcloud Lightning Panther appeared.

Jiang Han turned his gaze to Xing Gu and roared, “Tear him apart!”

Since Xing Gu wasn't playing by the rules and insisted on assassinating him, he didn't care anymore. He was prepared to kill Xing Gu, today.

“Awoo~”

The Blackcloud Lightning Panther roared, its wings fluttering, and then its figure blurred as it appeared beside Xing Gu. The Blackcloud Lightning Panther's claws glowed with cyan energy as it slammed them fiercely towards Xing Gu's head.

“Whoa!”

The appearance of the Blackcloud Lightning Panther caused the surrounding cultivators to explode again. This was a fourth-order immortal beast, its aura too terrifying.

The nearby cultivators fled into the distance, while Liu Zheng and the other Immortal Venerables quickly gathered around the Little Imperial Grandson to prevent him from being harmed.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

The Blackcloud Lightning Panther flashed continuously, its claws waving, and in an instant, it attacked Xing Gu several times, Xing Gu being repeatedly knocked back.

The golden armor on his body was too strong, withstanding the Blackcloud Lightning Panther's attacks.

Because of the continuous attacks, Xing Gu couldn't control the Heavenly Meteorite Pearl, and the gravity enveloping Jiang Han disappeared.

“Whoosh!”

Jiang Han's figure transformed into lightning, charging violently towards Xing Gu. He arrived behind Xing Gu and slammed a fist fiercely into his back.

“Bang!”

Xing Gu, unwilling to be outdone, swung his sword at Jiang Han. He was also seeing red; at this moment, he only had one thought in his mind—he must kill Jiang Han today, or the consequences would be endless.

“Stop…”

Seeing this scene, the Little Imperial Grandson couldn't help but want to order them to stop, but Liu Zheng stopped him.

Liu Zheng transmitted his voice, “Your Highness, let them fight for a while, let them vent the anger in their hearts. When they've fought enough, it won't be too late for you to come forward.”

Jiang Han and Xing Gu were both seeing red; even if they were stopped now, they could be stopped.

It was possible for Liu Zheng and the other Immortal Venerables to intervene, but what about after they were stopped?

The two of them would still be holding back their anger, and sooner or later they would fight again, which would be like burying two landmines that could explode at any time.

It was better to let them have a good fight first.

The Little Imperial Grandson thought for a moment and didn't shout. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Jiang Han with surprise, “Isn't this Divine Pill Marquis a grandmaster alchemist? Why does he have such powerful combat strength? Are you sure he doesn't have a big background?”

Liu Zheng touched his nose and said, “I don't know either. This person suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He was previously unknown, and I haven't heard of him being a disciple of any prominent family.”

“Moreover, he's famous for his alchemy. He's a Pseudo Immortal, so no one cared about his combat strength. But who would have thought he was a body cultivator? And he's cultivated to such a high level. This requires a lot of resources.”

“Pseudo Immortal?”

The Little Imperial Grandson curled his lips. It was impossible for a Pseudo Immortal to cultivate to this level without a lot of resources. Then Jiang Han must have a super-rich family supporting him behind him.

Not only the Little Imperial Grandson, but Huang Ling, Guan Xinyue, and the other young masters and ladies were also extremely surprised, and they all transmitted their voices to inquire about Jiang Han's situation.

Jiang Han had only shown his ability in alchemy before, which wasn't much in the eyes of many wealthy young masters and ladies. After all, alchemists weren't important in this world!

Combat strength and potential were the most important!

In this world, if you want to obtain resources, you must have territory, and if you want territory, you need strong combat strength.

Alchemists generally don't have strong combat strength, and they need massive alchemy resources, so they need to rely on the strong or super-rich families.

Jiang Han showing his powerful alchemy skills only made them think that Jiang Han was a talent, an object that could be recruited.

Now that Jiang Han had shown his powerful combat strength, not weaker than Xing Gu's, and was now suppressing and beating Xing Gu with the Blackcloud Lightning Panther, it naturally made them look at him with new eyes.

It should be known that the combat strength of many young masters and ladies here was much weaker than Xing Gu's.

“Tear~”

A huge black flag was suddenly torn apart, and then Immortal Nine Xuan and Immortal Biyue flew out.

Immortal Nine Xuan's pretty face was gloomy. She glanced around, but quickly looked surprised.

Because she saw Jiang Han cooperating with a fourth-order immortal beast, beating Xing Gu into disarray and embarrassment.

“Ya~”

Immortal Biyue also had a look of astonishment. Jiang Han actually had such combat strength. Also, where did this Blackcloud Lightning Panther come from? Why was it helping Jiang Han attack Xing Gu?

“This, this, how is this possible?”

When Luqiu Yin saw Xing Gu constantly retreating in embarrassment, his face was full of loss of soul. Before, it was acting, but this time it was real.

He had fought Jiang Han in Wushan City before. Although Jiang Han knocked him back with one punch, he was only at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm.

How long has it been? Jiang Han was actually able to suppress Xing Gu, who was in the late stage of the Immortal Venerable realm?

“Humph!”

Immortal Nine Xuan glanced at Luqiu Yin, raised her hand, and slapped him heavily on the ground.

“Puff~”

On the other side, Che Jiaren was also knocked away by Yu Xi, and she was also suppressed on the ground by her Three-Colored Mountain, unable to move.

Yu Xi glanced at Jiang Han and, after confirming that Jiang Han was okay, she took out the Seven Star Furnace and rushed towards Luqiu He with killing intent in her eyes.

In Wushan City before, Luqiu He had injured her badly. Now that the Little Imperial Grandson didn't say anything to stop her, she was taking advantage of this opportunity to take revenge.
