Getting Stronger By Chapter 731 729: Ultimately, Old Age Has Set In1

If Wang Zhan had not ignored them, Hu Xianfeng would have dealt with this group of people long ago.

Wang Zhan rely waved at Hu Xianfeng and said with a laugh, "These guys are well aware of the stakes. If we all get hurt, who could stop Qiu Lingdu's advance? It would all be a fruitless endeavor then."

"They'll be nothing but corpses," he added.

Hu Xianfeng nodded, seeming to agree with the logic.

At the side, Han Junxiong hesitated. After looking at Wang Zhan, he plucked up the courage to approach Qiu Lingdu. Although he didn't like playing the hero, he wasn't going to hold back under these circumstances. After all, Hu Xianfeng and Wang Zhan were right by his side. They were likely to jump in if anything happened.

However, just as the two of them made their move, Qiu Lingdu, who had been standing still, suddenly opened his eyes. He imdiately clenched his fist and smashed it toward the Fire Dragon in front of him. The mont his fist landed, the entire cage shook violently.

Wang Zhan's expression changed. He hadn't expected Qiu Lingdu to be so formidable. To think that a seemingly light blow had actually shaken the foundation of the cage!

Wang Zhan frowned slightly and once again raised his Deep Fire Blade, swinging it. The Fire Deity Armor was already on him, and boosted by the Deep Fire Blade, the power of the Fire Dragons was now much stronger than before. In the blink of an eye, another Fire Dragon descended, crashing toward Qiu Lingdu not far away.

Upon seeing such a powerful attack, Hu Xianfeng squinted and said, "You, young man, have quite potent ntal energy. I didn't expect that after setting up such a formidable formation, you'd still be able to unleash this kind of attack."

"Given ti, your cultivation will certainly far exceed mine."

"Your future is limitless."

Hu Xianfeng nodded in satisfaction. At this mont, he decided not to hold back any longer, evidently planning to teach Alchemy to Wang Zhan. It must be said that Wang Zhan is not only powerful but also possesses a magnanimity far exceeding these other young n. That was what he approved of the most. In his view, character was more important than power. After all, character doesn't change, but power can continuously be enhanced, as long as one is diligent enough.

Influenced by Wang Zhan, Han Junxiong also didn't hold back. He kept swinging his hands, and waves of energy rippled out, continuously falling on Qiu Lingdu. However, Han Junxiong's strength was weaker; compared to Wang Zhan, it fell short by a large margin. So, how could his attack possibly have any effect on Qiu Lingdu?

Han Junxiong frowned slightly, clenching his fist. Streaks of blood-red qi continuously converged on his wrist, and his fist beca increasingly crimson.

Seeing this, the eyes of the Bounty Hunters suddenly lit up, their faces filled with astonishnt.

"I didn't expect the Captain to use that move!"

"This is a forbidden technique! The more powerful it is, the greater the backlash. If used too often, the Captain definitely won't be able to bear it."

"We've faced life-or-death situations many tis, but even in the face of grave danger, the Captain never used this move. Why is he preparing to use it now?"

Wang Zhan, hearing their words, glanced at Han Junxiong nearby. His pupils contracted, and he cried out, "What are you doing?"

"Using all my strength to deal with Qiu Lingdu!" Han Junxiong declared, clenching his fist. The blood-red light around it grew increasingly dense, and his fist beca more formidable. He ignored everyone's stares and smashed it directly at Qiu Lingdu.

At this mont, Qiu Lingdu roared. The Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation before him shattered, and streaks of Fire Light rained down. Everyone was startled and quickly scrambled to the side. Simultaneously, Han Junxiong's fist pierced through the Fire Light and landed squarely on Qiu Lingdu. Everyone held their breath, focusing intently, eager to witness this earth-shattering battle.

However, to everyone's surprise, Han Junxiong's fist inflicted no harm whatsoever on Qiu Lingdu. Qiu Lingdu's expression grew even grimr. He raised his hand, grabbed Han Junxiong's arm, then lifted his other fist and smashed it hard into Han Junxiong's chest.

The color drained from Han Junxiong's face. It's too late to dodge!

At the side, Wang Zhan quickly charged toward Qiu Lingdu. anwhile, the Deep Fire Blade also left his hand. Above in the sky, fireballs fell one after the other. Qiu Lingdu had no choice but to retract his fist temporarily to resist the fireballs from the sky.

Seizing this opportunity, Wang Zhan quickly reached Han Junxiong's side, grabbed him, and retreated swiftly.

Only then did Han Junxiong breathe a sigh of relief. If Wang Zhan hadn't stepped in just now, I would probably be a corpse. But in that situation, if a crisis had arisen, it would have been very difficult for Wang Zhan to escape either. Han Junxiong was visibly moved.

After glancing at Wang Zhan, Han Junxiong said, "Words can't express my gratitude for saving . From now on, my life is yours."

Wang Zhan shook his head dismissively. "Instead of wasting ti on sentintality, focus on how to deal with this big guy in front of us. Who has ti to claim your life?"

"Besides, with your current abilities, you'd just be a burden if you followed ."

After speaking indifferently, Wang Zhan once again charged at Qiu Lingdu. The Deep Fire Blade in the sky continually pressured Qiu Lingdu. Coupled with Wang Zhan's sudden attack, Qiu Lingdu was montarily caught off guard. However, everyone knew Wang Zhan's strength wouldn't pose a significant threat to Qiu Lingdu. Even if he could delay him now, Qiu Lingdu would soon break through this barrier.

All eyes fell on Hu Xianfeng; he was now the only one who could change the situation. Hu Xianfeng squinted at Qiu Lingdu for a while. Then, he raised his right hand, and a longsword imdiately appeared in it.

"Move away!" Hu Xianfeng yelled at Wang Zhan the next second.

Wang Zhan hurriedly retreated.

Simultaneously, Hu Xianfeng, gripping the longsword, thrust it directly toward Qiu Lingdu's chest. With that one strike, Heaven and Earth themselves seed to change color. It was undeniable; the cultivation level of the Tribal Patriarch was truly awe-inspiring.

Everyone was surprised. Even though Hu Xianfeng's sword landed on Qiu Lingdu's chest, he still seed to possess the strength to fight. Qiu Lingdu roared, swiftly raising his fist and smashing it fiercely into Hu Xianfeng's face. Hu Xianfeng couldn't evade in ti and took the punch squarely, sending him flying backward. He was in a sorry state for a mont.

Wang Zhan quickly rushed to Hu Xianfeng's side and anxiously asked, "How are you? Can you still hold on?"

Hu Xianfeng squinted and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I can manage."

Even though he said so, Wang Zhan still looked worried. After all, Hu Xianfeng was getting on in years; how could he endure such a formidable attack?

Suddenly, Hu Xianfeng clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, everyone's faces turned grim, particularly the Bounty Hunters, who began contemplating retreat from the battlefield. However, they dared not make any rash moves. After all, none of them were injured yet. If they attempted to flee, Wang Zhan would surely attack them first, and the consequences would be dreadful to imagine. Moreover, Qiu Lingdu in the distance was watching them like a predator. The safest option now was to stay still and make no moves.

Hu Xianfeng sighed, admitting reluctantly, "I suppose I really am old."

Han Junxiong quickly said, "Hu Lao, let's not worry about this for now. As for Qiu Lingdu, let the people in the city deal with him. Whether they live or die is their own fate and no concern of ours."

"How about we escort you back to recuperate?"

Although Qiu Lingdu was seriously injured, Hu Xianfeng was also badly wounded. If this continued, Hu Xianfeng could lose his life, and they couldn't let that happen.

Wang Zhan's face also grew grim. Clenching his fist, he instructed Han Junxiong without waiting for Hu Xianfeng to respond, "Quickly, get this old fellow out of here!"

"And what about you?" Han Junxiong asked, startled, his gaze fixed on Wang Zhan.

Hu Xianfeng, standing beside them, also watched Wang Zhan intently, clearly uncertain of his intentions.

"I still need to keep this guy busy for a while," Wang Zhan stated.

Upon hearing this, Han Junxiong imdiately exclaid, "Are you mad? You know how formidable this guy is! Even Hu Lao isn't his match. Fighting him now is suicide!"

"You need to leave with us!"

The three of them combined could still contend with Qiu Lingdu. Although Qiu Lingdu lacked Divine Sense, he could still sense who was stronger or weaker. Thus, he probably wouldn't continue to tangle with all three of them. But if Wang Zhan kept provoking him, Qiu Lingdu would surely make him his sole target!

Hu Xianfeng also nodded and said in a serious tone, "I didn't expect this fellow to be so powerful either. Even my sneak attack resulted in a backlash against ."

"If you stay here, you'll just be sacrificing yourself for nothing."

"Alright, don't waste any more ti. Leave with us imdiately."

Wang Zhan squinted and smiled, a resolute light in his eyes. He shook his head, saying, "How could we know without trying?"
