Chapter 305 Hu Zhen
The combined energy surge of the five elements clashed violently with the four individuals' strongest techniques at the center of the formation, unleashing a deafening roar. The entire formation trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
The violent aftershocks of energy swept outwards, tearing the ground apart and making the earth seem to groan in agony.
As the light gradually faded, although the four had successfully blocked the combined attack of the five elements, they were all exhausted and each had injuries of varying degrees.
The mysterious man's black cloak was tattered, a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and the runes in his hand had become dull and lifeless. He was panting heavily, his gaze dark as he looked at Mo Ming.
The man in black armor knelt on one knee, blood streaming down his shoulder, his battle axe planted in the ground to support him. His eyes held a hint of resentment and anger.
Wang Mingyang's face was pale, and the short blade in his hand was covered with cracks, clearly reaching its limit.
The silver-armored youth was equally disheveled; his lightning had dimmed, and several deep cracks had appeared on his spear.
Mo Ming stood in the center of the formation. Although he had also expended a considerable amount of spiritual energy, he was clearly in much better shape than the others. He coldly stared at Wang Mingyang, a sneer playing on his lips: "Wang Mingyang, are you ready to die?"
Suddenly, his figure flashed, rushing straight towards the mysterious man. The bronze demon-suppressing sword, burning with blazing flames, was aimed directly at the mysterious man's throat!
"you--!"
The mysterious man's expression changed drastically. He tried to resist with his last bit of strength, but he had reached his limit and was unable to stop Mo Ming's sudden and fatal attack.
"Pfft!" The fiery sword energy pierced through the mysterious man's throat. His eyes were filled with disbelief, and his lips trembled slightly, but he could not make a sound.
The mysterious man's body slowly collapsed, the talisman in his hand dissipating into starlight. Without hesitation, Mo Ming reached out and pocketed the mysterious man's spatial ring.
"Next, it's your turn."
Mo Ming turned around, his gaze icy as he looked at Wang Mingyang and the man in black armor. He slowly raised the bronze demon-suppressing sword, the flames on its blade reigniting, clearly intending to take advantage of their weakened state to finish them off together.
"Mo Ming! How dare you! I am a member of the garrison of the City Lord's Mansion in the Eastern Main City. If you kill me, the Eastern Main City will not let you off the hook!" Wang Mingyang roared, struggling to stand up, but his body was already swaying precariously.
The man in black armor gritted his teeth and tried to lift the battle axe, but his injuries prevented him from moving at all.
"Heh, finished your last words? If you're done, then go die!"
Mo Ming's eyes blazed with killing intent. However, just as he was about to make his move, a sharp blade of energy pierced through the air from afar, slashing straight at Mo Ming's back!
"Who goes there?!" Mo Ming's expression changed, and he hurriedly turned around to defend himself with his sword.
"Boom!" The blade energy and sword energy collided, unleashing a violent shockwave. Mo Ming was forced back several steps, his gaze turning icy as he looked in the direction from which the blade energy had come.
In the distance, a man dressed in a gray robe slowly approached. He held a black longsword in his hand, his gaze was as cold as ice, and he exuded a chilling aura.
The man slowly walked to the center of the battlefield, his gaze sweeping over the ravaged land and the four wrecked figures. His figure was as steady as a mountain, and the black longsword in his hand exuded a chilling aura.
"Who gave you the audacity to lay a hand on the guards of my city lord's mansion?" Hu Zhen's voice was deep and powerful, carrying an unquestionable authority. "If the people of my Eastern Main City make a mistake, the Eastern Main City Lord's mansion will handle it itself. It's not your place to deal with it."
Upon hearing this, Wang Mingyang reacted as if he had grasped a lifeline, almost kneeling down with excitement. His voice trembled as he cried out, "Deputy Captain Hu Zhen! You've finally come! This Mo Ming completely disregards our City Lord's Mansion and even killed our men! You must avenge me!"
As he shouted, he stared intently at Mo Ming with venomous eyes, as if afraid that Hu Zhen wasn't taking it seriously enough. He then added fuel to the fire, saying, "He just said that the Eastern Main City is nothing in his eyes! Deputy Captain Hu, such an arrogant scoundrel must not be let off lightly!"
Hu Zhen frowned slightly, not responding to Wang Mingyang, but instead casting a sharp gaze at Mo Ming, as if waiting for his explanation.
Mo Ming merely sneered, showing no fear whatsoever at Hu Zhen's arrival. He raised the bronze demon-suppressing sword, its flames still blazing, reflecting off his cold and stern face.
"Deputy Captain Hu, right?"
Mo Ming's tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable sharpness: "I don't care who you are, or whether you're a captain or not. Wang Mingyang owes me a debt, and I must collect it today. So what if it's the Eastern Main City?"
Hu Zhen's gaze sharpened slightly, clearly not expecting Mo Ming to be so assertive. He said coldly, "Mo Ming, do you know what you're saying? Even if Wang Mingyang is wrong, he is a man of my Eastern Main City. In any case, his life or death is decided by me, not you."
"Hahaha!" Mo Ming laughed loudly, his laughter full of sarcasm. "Are you mistaken? Wang Mingyang owes me a life debt. If I don't kill him today, it's against all reason! You want to protect him? Fine, then first ask my sword if it will allow it!"
"Arrogant!" Hu Zhen's voice suddenly turned cold, and his black longsword trembled slightly, with a faint glint of light flashing on its blade. "Mo Ming, I don't want to be your enemy. But if you insist on doing so, don't blame me for being impolite."
"So what if you're impolite?" Mo Ming sneered, his sword pointing directly at Hu Zhen. "I want to see what kind of ability this so-called vice-captain of the Eastern Main City has to stop me!"
The tension between the two instantly escalated, and a faint, thunderous vibration reverberated in the air. Hu Zhen's sword intent was like a deep, dark night, exuding immense pressure; while Mo Ming's sword intent was as fiery as a raging fire, seemingly intent on burning away all obstacles.
Seeing this, Wang Mingyang quickly added fuel to the fire: "Deputy Captain Hu, you see that! Mo Ming doesn't respect you at all! He's clearly trying to make an enemy of our Eastern Main City! This kind of person must not be allowed to live!"
Moreover, he also stole our level 3 diamond resource chest.
Upon hearing this, Hu Zhen's eyes, which were fixed on Mo Ming, flickered slightly, and his tone was cold: "Mo Ming, I'm giving you one last chance. Put away your sword, hand over the resource box, and leave this place. I can let bygones be bygones."
"Let bygones be bygones?" Mo Ming sneered, his eyes flashing with cold light. "Who do you think you are? No one can stop me today! Wang Mingyang must die!"
Before he could finish speaking, Mo Ming's figure flashed, and the bronze demon-suppressing sword, burning with intense flames, slashed straight at Wang Mingyang!
"You're courting death!" Hu Zhen roared, and his black longsword was instantly drawn, a sharp blade aura slashing towards Mo Ming, attempting to force him back.
"Boom!" The blade energy and sword energy collided once more, unleashing a deafening roar. The two powerful forces intertwined in the air, stirring up a violent energy storm that tore the surrounding ground even more shattered.
Mo Ming was forced back several steps, but his gaze remained resolute, and the bronze demon-suppressing sword in his hand showed no sign of retreat. He looked coldly at Hu Zhen, his tone icy: "Hu Zhen, if you want to protect him, then die together!"
