Chapter 194 Fang Yuan's Angry Destruction of the Fang Family's Future Hope!

"Why don't you all come at me together? What do I, Zheng Jun, have to fear?!"

Zheng Jun let out a long, exhilarating cry that resounded throughout the Lanzhou army, instantly turning the faces of all the experts in Lanzhou ashen.

The purple-robed elder, Fang Yuan, disregarded Gongyang Jin's order and immediately stepped forward. The twelve bronze abacus beads beside him flew up as he shouted sternly, "You lowly junior from the Black Mountain clerks, do you think you can bully my Lanzhou and my Fang family because you have no one to rely on?!"

Having said that, the twelve bronze abacus beads swelled in the wind, transforming into a mountain range that seemed to press down from above, and Fang Yuan made a hand seal and shouted: "Nine Chapters Demon Subduing Formation!"

After he finished speaking, the twelve bronze beads, like twelve warriors, were arranged in twelve positions, forming an array!
Fang Yuan is the number one person after Fang Ji, the patriarch of the Fang family. Although his cultivation level is only at the fourth level of the Tongqiao realm, it is enough to compete with ordinary fifth level Tongqiao realm cultivators!

The reason lies in these twelve beads.

These twelve abacus beads were left by the founding ancestor of the Fang family as a family heirloom.

The ancestors of the Fang family used an abacus to assist Emperor Shenwu in establishing his rule over the world. They calculated supplies and made strategic plans for Emperor Shenwu. After Emperor Shenwu pacified the world, he bestowed twelve bronze abacus beads upon the ancestors of the Fang family as family artifacts.

Although it is not a magic weapon, it is already the best among magic tools!

As the house roared in anger, a vast and righteous aura appeared on the surface of the abacus beads. This aura, mixed with the annihilating demonic light, surged forth to crush them.

Zheng Jun stepped on the 'Swift Meteor' and dodged three abacus beads to the side. He then used the Dragon Abyss Blade to shatter the fourth bead, only to find that the broken beads transformed into a swarm of poisonous locusts that attacked and bit him!

"A ghostly trick."

With a cold laugh, Zheng Jun activated the Radiant Sunlight, and the poisonous locusts vanished in the golden light!

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Jun made a gesture with his left hand, and the ink-black jade seal formed by the flowing shadows and floating life crashed down on Fang Yuantianling!
Yuan hurriedly made a life-saving incantation, and the remaining eight abacus beads formed a tortoise shell formation above his head. But then a crisp 'crack' was heard, and the remaining abacus beads were cracked by the Daoist energy of the jade seal!

"This kid is actually this powerful?!"

The purple-robed elder was horrified and retreated hastily. Although he knew that Zheng Jun was powerful and could defeat Helan Shan in three or five strikes, he did not expect that he could be the same when fighting him!
I am far more capable than Helan Mountain!

Just as the purple-robed elder was thinking this, Zheng Jun's blade had already pierced through the gap in the array's core.

At this critical moment, three figures attacked simultaneously.

"Don't harm my fifth uncle!"

Fang Han wielded the measuring ruler and struck the back of the blade horizontally, while Murong Ling's serpent spear aimed straight for Zheng Jun's throat. Wu Jiang, a martial general at the second level of the Qi Opening Realm, dragged half a crescent blade and slashed at Zheng Jun's waist and abdomen.

The three attacked together, subtly embodying the Three Powers Formation!
Looking at the three people surging forward, Zheng Jun couldn't help but let out a soft snort.

The repayment progress is going to skyrocket.

The blade flashed like a waterfall, and a murderous intent suddenly descended!
Zheng Jun's brow furrow flashed with golden light, and the intent of the Green Water Blade and the brilliance of the Sun were clearly distinct within a small space!
The azure blade energy shattered Fang Han's measuring ruler, and the golden light, like the blazing sun, melted the sharpness of the serpent spear!
Before Wu Jiang's crescent blade could strike, a phantom of a black jade seal suddenly burst forth from the ground beneath his feet, its immense power causing his bones to crack!

"You two, so fickle and indecisive, dare to try and kill me?"

Zheng Jun laughed loudly, scattering the flowing clouds. The Dragon Abyss Blade spun into a wheel and roared towards Wujiang.

Wu Jiang was the weakest of the three who attacked him.

It would be better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt ten of them!
The lapis lazuli blade swept across Wu Jiang's chest, tearing his black armor like thin paper. Before the blood rain could even fall to the ground, it was steamed into a scarlet mist by the true fire!
Fang Han's pupils suddenly contracted.

Wu Jiang, who was slashed, complained bitterly: "I'm just a lowly laborer, why are you making things difficult for me?"

Moreover, Wu Jiang was indeed half-hearted just now; he was merely cooperating with the two and did not intend to truly oppose Zheng Jun.

But to his surprise, Zheng Jun swung his knife and nearly killed him... This made Wu Jiang feel very wronged.

Just as the figures of the group were sweeping backward, another person soared into the air, his hand blazing with crimson flames—it was the Fang family's ultimate divine skill, 'Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun'!
This person is Fang Ping, a martial artist from the Fang family who has reached the Tongqiao stage.

Before Zheng Jun could retract his sword strike, Fang Ping arrived with the 'Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun' technique, transforming into a blazing sun!
The other two Qi Refining martial artists also launched their attacks simultaneously. The burly man wielding a meteor hammer threw his twin hammers, which were wrapped in lightning and fire, toward Tianling, while the tall, thin man used a flying knife mixed with poisonous sand from his sleeve to block Zheng Jun's retreat!
only……

Zheng Jun never considered retreating!

Zheng Jun faced the blazing sun that Fang Ping had transformed into. Suddenly, the Green Water Blade Intent condensed into a green dragon that coiled around the blade, merging with the shimmering sunlight to form a blue-gold vortex!

The Dragon Abyss Blade defied the odds and cleaved the Heavenly Sun Blazing in two! Fang Ping's fiery aura shattered like glass, and his chest and abdomen were torn open by the blade's energy, leaving deep, bone-revealing gashes. He screamed as he fell to the ground.

"You're even worse. Even if you have supernatural powers, you're not half as good as that strong man who came up first!"

Zheng Jun snorted coldly. Before the meteor hammer and poison sand could get close, the ink seal phantom under Zheng Jun's feet suddenly expanded, and the immense Daoist aura crushed the thunder and fire hammers.

As the sleeves billowed, shadows floated and coalesced into a dark barrier, which was instantly devoured upon impact with the poisonous sand daggers.

Zheng Jun swung his sword backhand, slashing across ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), causing the burly man wielding the meteor hammer to go numb in both arms and fly backward.

The old man in purple robes had a grim expression. The twelve bronze abacus beads reappeared beside him, as if they were not the ones that had been shattered earlier. He then shouted sternly, "Stop holding back! When dealing with such treacherous villains, forget about morality. Let's all attack together!"

Seven figures converged from all directions. Even Fang Ping and Wu Jiang, who had just been severely injured by Zheng Jun's blade, gritted their teeth and rushed over, weaving their weapons into a net.

As for Helan Mountain at the bottom of the riverbed, he had already climbed out of the water. However, his expression was gloomy. After hesitating for a moment, he still took off into the air, brandishing half of a broken blade, and charged towards Zheng Jun.

But in any case, Zheng Jun's words did leave a deep impression on him.

Yes.

What is he plotting?
Even the most worthless members of the Fang family possess supernatural powers and magical artifacts.

Why?
Are scions of powerful families inherently superior to ordinary martial artists like us?

Helan Mountain harbored some resentment, but he was not yet ready to submit.

after all,

Zheng Jun, who was opposite him, was also a martial artist recommended by a prominent family.

What are the differences between the Cai family and the Fang family?

So, after only a moment's hesitation, Helan Mountain also rose into the air and charged towards Zheng Jun.

Zheng Junxiong looked around and then at the eight people.

There are three members of the Fang family, and the aura of 'Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun' on their bodies is undeniable.

The other five were all ordinary cultivators who had reached the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm. Even Helan Shan, who had reached the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm, did not possess any supernatural powers, let alone the others.

Of the three, Fang Ping is clearly the least skilled.

The strongest among them was the purple-robed elder, Fang Yuan.

As for Fang Han, a martial artist in his thirties who had reached the Qi-opening stage, his skill level was neither high nor low.

but……

He is quite young.

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Jun had already decided on his target.

The room is cold!

Although it's a bit too abstract for a 22-year-old to say that the 35-year-old Fang Han is young, Fang Han is definitely the core hope of the Fang family.

Killing him would be far more effective than killing Fang Ping and Fang Du; it would also ignite the Fang family's anger and provoke them!
Upon realizing this, Zheng Jun's lips curled up slightly.

At that moment, a chill suddenly ran through Fang Han's heart.

I don't know why, but I always feel like someone is watching me, and it gives me the creeps.

Fang Han thought to himself, but with a formidable enemy at hand, he could only suppress his unease and look at the enemy before him.

With all eight acupoints activated simultaneously, what can you possibly fight against?!
"on!"

With a roar, the old man in purple robes unleashed all twelve abacuses!

The other seven also unleashed their ultimate techniques!

Helan Mountain's broadsword cleaved horizontally, Murong Ling's serpent spear pierced the heart like a poisonous dragon.

Meteor hammers and throwing knives were unleashed simultaneously.

In an instant, true energy surged and rippled in all directions!

Zheng Jun stepped on a swift meteor, his figure turning into a blur amidst the eight killing moves, while the Dragon Abyss Blade suddenly turned, its emerald blade energy like a poisonous dragon emerging from its cave, aiming straight for Fang Han's throat!

"I'll kill you!"

Fang Han's pupils suddenly contracted, and the measuring ruler hastily blocked the way.

The moment the magical artifacts clashed, the Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun erupted with a roar, and the Crimson Gold True Fire transformed into nine blazing suns that surrounded him!
Fang's supernatural powers, the blazing sun of the Heavenly Gang.

Fang Han has actually mastered the Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun technique to the 'minor completion' level!

The fact that he was able to achieve minor mastery of this supernatural ability at the initial stage of the Qi Opening Realm is enough to prove his extraordinary talent, especially since he is only thirty-seven years old this year and has already become a martial artist at the initial stage of the Qi Opening Realm and has achieved minor mastery of the supernatural ability!

Such a prodigy is the future of the Fang family, the tyrant of Lanzhou!
but……

Such a prodigy appears utterly insignificant in the face of Zheng Jun, a twenty-two-year-old commoner at the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm who possesses two minor divine abilities.

Zheng Jun's sword strikes were as precise as a butcher carving up an ox; his flowing sword intent followed the gaps in the flames, piercing straight into the heart of the blazing sun, actually splitting a gap in the magical fire ring! "Fifth Uncle, help me!"

Seeing that his Heavenly Blazing Sun technique was easily neutralized by Zheng Jun's Lushui Blade Intent, Fang Han was horrified. His Measuring Ruler was forced to retreat inch by inch by the Dragon Abyss Blade.

Just then, twelve bronze abacus beads came rushing towards Zheng Jun. Zheng Jun only glanced at them, then clenched his fist and slammed the black jade seal formed by the flowing shadows and life force, which intercepted the twelve bronze abacus beads in mid-air.

Upon seeing this, Helan Shan, Murong Ling, Wu Jiang, and the other five non-family members with the ability to sense things all slowed down their movements in perfect unison.

They wish the house would freeze to death.

Zheng Jun's words were indeed remembered by the group.

Those scions of noble families deserve to die, deserve to die, deserve to die!
Only when all the scions of noble families die out can we, from humble backgrounds, rise to prominence.

Only then can we hope to gain supernatural powers.

After Zheng Jun kills Fang Han, we will then take down Zheng Jun.

It would be even better if we could kill Fang Ping as well.

That's what everyone was thinking.

However, Fang Ping, who was also a member of the Fang family, unconsciously slowed down his movements.

Because he keenly sensed that the people around him were also moving in slow motion, if he continued to do so, he would easily become the one who stood out.

Last time, he was seriously injured by Zheng Jun with a single slash.

This time, he didn't want to be hacked to death.

All the martial artists present, who had reached the Qi Refining stage, harbored their own ulterior motives. Only Fang Yuan, his eyes blazing with fury, shouted sternly, "How dare you, you brat—!"

Fang Yuan's eyes widened in fury, and he went completely mad. Seven weapons, all of them magical artifacts and divine weapons, emerged from his sleeves!
Seven blades, imbued with an aura of annihilation, attacked from behind, but Zheng Jun seemed oblivious. The meteor suddenly accelerated by thirty percent, and the blades, grazing the sparks flying from the measuring ruler, advanced three zhang!

Fang Han's breastplate shattered instantly, and the Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun was actually reversed and devoured by the sword intent, with raging true fire flowing back into his internal organs along his meridians!

"This is the true Great Sun Fire!"

Golden light burst forth in Zheng Jun's eyes, and the lines between his brows flowed intensely like lava.

He suddenly withdrew the Green Water Blade Intent, and the emerald dragon on the Dragon Abyss Blade instantly collapsed into a drop of emerald water. The next instant, the water droplet exploded into thousands of golden threads!
"The sun is falling!"

The radiant light was completely unleashed at this moment, and the blade, carrying the ultimate, compressed essence of the great sun, cleaved down from above.

The moment Fang Han hastily erected the measuring ruler touched the golden light, it melted away inch by inch, like spring snow meeting boiling oil.

The nine illusory suns shattered one after another under the force of the blade, and the crimson flames that had been backed by the Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun Divine Power were actually forced back into his body's acupoints by the golden light.

"Do not--!!!"

Fang Yuan roared incessantly, and the twelve bronze abacus beads instantly went berserk, trying to break through the ink-colored Great Wall formed by Zheng Jun's flowing shadows.

Just as the Xuanwu protective array pattern engraved on Fang Han's breastplate began to glow faintly, the Longyuan Blade pierced through the protective true essence as if it were a hot knife cutting through fat.

The moment the golden light pierced his body, countless streams of fire were reflected in Fang Han's pupils.

His proud thirty-seven years of arduous cultivation transformed into surging flames in his meridians, bursting forth from his seven orifices, burning his entire body into a translucent, glass-like humanoid torch.

With a slight flick of his wrist, Zheng Jun sent the blade tracing an arc, and the last wisp of golden flame swept up Fang Han's mangled body, exploding into a shower of crimson-gold stardust in mid-air!

"Han'er!!"

Fang Yuan's eyes widened in rage as the twelve abacus beads rearranged themselves into a blood-red scale in his frenzy. Meanwhile, the five non-family members with the same spiritual power tacitly retreated half a step, with Murong Ling even secretly cutting off Fang Ping's rescue route.

"Kill one more, kill one more and then we'll all attack together."

Murong Ling even thought to herself.

He was a member of the Northern Rong tribe, just like Dugu Jing and Dugu Yuan, but the difference was that the Murong clan was doing better and had already reached the county seat.

Everyone else thought that Murong Shi was deeply trusted, but only Murong Ling knew the hardships behind it all.

He had had enough of the constant suppression he faced in Lanzhou City.

Only when the Fang family's strength is greatly reduced will they rely on the Murong family!

The Murong family is the only outsider, without any foundation in Lanzhou City. If the Fang family wants to continue ruling Lanzhou, they must win them over.

This was Murong Ling's idea.

Therefore, among the five, Murong Ling was the one who most wanted Fang Ping to die along with her.

However, after Zheng Jun killed Fang Han, he looked around and immediately realized something, and couldn't help but smile.

Fine, fine, you're not united either, and you want me to kill another member of the Fang family?
Zheng Jun looked over and saw that the old man in purple robes had his hair and beard standing on end and looked extremely angry, while the other member of the Fang family was as timid as a mouse, and the knife marks on his breastplate had not yet faded.

In this case, then...

With this thought in mind, Zheng Jun instantly stepped out of the Star Gang and activated 'Swift Meteor,' transforming into a streak of azure-gold light and fleeing northward: "Thank you, Earl of Hancheng, for such a generous gift. We will meet again someday!"

"However, don't you think it's inappropriate that old man Fang monopolizes eight magical artifacts and divine weapons? He has eight for himself and doesn't share even one with you. It's such a pity and a shame!"

This sudden move caught the others off guard.

Even Gongyang Jin, who was in the central command tent, was taken aback.

"Ran?"

No one expected this.

After all, Zheng Jun's previous behavior made it seem like he wouldn't stop until he had killed all eight of them.

Why did he kill Fang Han and then turn around and run away?
While the others were still in a daze, Fang Yuan was furious. He roared at the people around him, "You are all traitors! I will report this to my brother and have you punished!"

"Gongyang Jin! This is your scheme?! You, a martial artist at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm, why don't you make a move?!"

Fang Yuan's roar echoed through the air as he glared angrily at Gongyang Jin, whose face was also ashen.

Why didn't he take action?

Although he is said to be at the fifth level of the Qi and blood realm, his Qi and blood are depleted. How could he possibly be a match for Zheng Jun in a fight?

As for the other martial artists who had reached the Qigong stage, they remained silent.

You just lost your descendants, so you can curse me all you want.

Anyway, Fang Ji couldn't possibly execute all five of them.

Seeing the silence of everyone around him, Fang Yuan was already furious. He looked at the blue-gold light that Zheng Jun had fled, took a deep breath, and was filled with grief. The twelve bronze abacus beads, wrapped in blood-red murderous aura, sped through the air and actually fused into one in mid-air: "You little thief!!! Even if I chase you to the Yellow Springs and the Azure Heaven, I will tear you to pieces!"

With a roar, Fang Yuan transformed into a blood-red shadow, relentlessly pursuing the attacker.

Zheng Jun stepped on the illusory image of the ink seal and swept across the great river, when he suddenly felt a murderous intent clinging to his back like a bone-deep sore.

Looking back, the walls burned with the essence of blood, activating a secret technique, and essence of blood seeped from the seven orifices.

"Nine Chapters to Exterminate Evil!"

Fang Yuan roared, and the river water surged back into a cage, with twelve illusory figures forming an array to seal off all directions.

Zheng Jun swung his sword and shattered the two illusory figures. After letting out a cold laugh, he did not linger and continued flying northward.

Honestly, Zheng Jun felt he probably wouldn't have a chance to kill many more. If the other side were shameless and sent an army of 200,000 to attack, he might really die on the spot, or he might be seriously injured and escape.

However, that would prevent the maximization of profits.

Only by making such a graceful exit, 'escaping from the midst of swords and killing in the mortal world,' can one maximize the blow to the enemy's morale and leave with ease!

Therefore, although he could have kept Fang Yuan alive to kill him, Zheng Jun spared his life.

The supernatural technique 'Swift Meteor' is extremely fast. Fang Yuan had no escape techniques at all, so he could only watch Zheng Jun's departing figure, so angry that he vomited blood.

"Mr. Fang, perhaps..."

Murong Ling stepped forward to try and persuade him, but Fang Yuan coughed up blood, made a hand seal, and drew his sword directly at his own chest, slashing open a deep gash. He then stuffed the remaining abacus beads into his chest: "Ancestors above, today the seventh generation descendant of the Fang family requests the opening of the killing plate!"

Seeing this, Murong Ling was extremely shocked, and Fang Ping was even more astonished.

"Uncle, what you've done..."

Before Fang Ping could finish expressing his doubts, blood-red abacus beads burst forth from Fang Yuan's chest, transforming into the Sixty-Four Hexagrams of Life and Death, which then enveloped the surrounding area.

At this moment, all of Fang Yuan's essence and blood were mobilized. With his eyes wide open in anger, Fang Yuan's aura actually seemed to rise to the peak of the Opening Aperture stage.

"Ancestors of the Fang family, help me kill the traitors!"
