”The mighty Wushang Village Chief actually appeared in the northwest and even fought with our Righteous Alliance. This was truly too surprising. We continued to follow this clue and learned to our surprise that the famous Wushang Cavalry were under the command of a Young Marquis of the Great Tang.”
As Chu Nan spoke, he removed a different drawing from his left sleeve and opened it. The crowd was immediately drawn to the image.
”Ah!”
Upon seeing the subject of that drawing, the crowd cried out in surprise.
The drawing depicted a handsome youth of seventeen or eighteen, and if one looked carefully, the youth was identical to Wang Chong!
”How could this be?”
”So he really wasn't Young Master Qingyang!”
”The Young Marquis? He's actually a Marquis of the Imperial Court! At the young age of eighteen, he's already a Marquis!”
Expressions of shock appeared in the eyes of the surrounding crowd. Each of them had made their own guess as to Wang Chong's identity. After all, this was someone audacious enough to play around with people like Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor.
But no one had expected that this person who paid little regard to the righteous and evil factions was actual a noble of the Great Tang!
”Haaah…”
As he heard all the cries of alarm coming from around him, Wang Chong couldn't help but sigh.
It seems like it will be difficult to end today on a good note!
Even a sage could make a mistake. He had never expected that in the end, the final and fatal leak would come not from him, but from the Wushang Village Chief, who had gone to find his master.
During the campaign at the triangular gap and the victorious return from the Battle of Talas, the Wushang Village Chief had accompanied the Wushang Cavalry back, causing him to be seen by many people and sowing the seeds for today's exposure.
”Kekeke, this ancestor doesn't care if you're some Marquis of the Imperial Court. None of those statuses have any use here. For daring to fool this ancestor, this ancestor will tear you to pieces!”
As he gave his strange and sinister laugh, the Black Yin Ancestor turned his pitch-black eyes onto Wang Chong, who was only twenty-some feet away.
”Ah!”
Before anyone else could react, the Black Yin Ancestor lunged forward like some massive bird, shrouded in black smoke. By the time everyone realized what was going on, he was just two feet from Wang Chong.
Buzz!
And then the crowd once more gasped in surprise.
Moments after the Black Yin Ancestor had attacked, Song Yuanyi had made his move.
”Father!”
Song Youran's face paled as she reached out to grab her father, but how could someone of her cultivation level possibly catch Song Yuanyi?
”Kill him! Hurry and kill him!”
Amidst the Righteous Alliance disciples, Ji Andu excitedly clenched his fists, his eyes bursting with anticipation.
Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor were both top-class individuals of the martial arts world. With the two of them taking action, Wang Chong was doomed. And if not for these titans already being present, Ji Andu himself would have charged out long ago.
Bang!
A moment later, with a heaven-shaking explosion, a vast torrent of energy on par with the Black Yin Ancestor's surged out of Wang Chong's body.
This boundless energy swept out with unstoppable momentum, and countless martial artists were left stunned and amazed. At that moment, besides experts like the Black Yin Ancestor and Song Yuanyi, everyone else felt like an insignificant ant.
Rumble! The two waves of energy clashed, and then the Black Yin Ancestor staggered backward six or seven steps.
”This is impossible!”
The Black Yin Ancestor's eyes went round, a look of extreme shock on his face.
Meanwhile, after pushing back the Black Yin Ancestor, Wang Chong had to immediately turn and face down his second opponent with barely any time to catch his breath.
Song Yuanyi's Eternal Spring Stellar Energy was incredibly tough to deal with. Although it lacked the explosive and aggressive properties of the Universe Sundering Art, its tenacity and repulsing properties were second to none. Even the golden giant leading the men in black had suffered internal injuries from this Stellar Energy, let alone anyone else.
