The hooded girl leading Wang Liyue toward Jiang Fan was none other than Nangong Yue, who had been assigned a secret mission by Jiang Fan in advance.

The terrifying blade light that Cao Bin was swinging at her back was rapidly approaching, and with her level 1 spirit body's keen senses, it was not difficult for her to detect the terrifying power hidden in this gust of wind.

Even so, there was no sign of panic on her face, nor did she show any intention of turning around to face Cao Bin or changing direction to dodge his attack.

This was, of course, because the moment she made a move, Jiang Fan rushed towards her.

In the instant their bodies crossed, they even exchanged a glance.

Previously, Jiang Fan had deliberately provoked Cao Bin to test his strength, so that no unexpected events would occur at this moment.

"clang--!!!"

A crisp metallic clang rang out as Jiang Fan's rattan staff and Cao Bin's longsword clashed violently. The sound was so loud that the ears of those around them rang, and they all instinctively began to retreat.

But this time the two did not separate immediately. Cao Bin came in anger, slashing continuously with his long knife, while Jiang Fan wielded his rattan staff with great force. The two exchanged seven or eight blows in a short time before slowly separating.

Jiang Fan's physical strength is not significantly superior to Cao Bin's; his real advantage lies in his weaponry.

This time, Cao Bin did not choose to use all his strength to fight Jiang Fan head-on. Instead, he used various techniques. In addition, he was prepared for the lightning attribute of the Heavenly Cloud Vine. Therefore, his performance this time was significantly better than when he completely clashed with Jiang Fan when he was deliberately provoked.

Even so, after seven or eight exchanges, Cao Bin's arm was still under the double attack of the recoil and the thunderous force, and he was almost losing feeling in it.

On the other hand, Jiang Fan only experienced a slight increase in breathing speed and a little sweat on his forehead, clearly indicating that he was not seriously injured.

The difference in their abilities is immediately apparent.

However, Jiang Fan also knew that although he was a level above Cao Bin in strength, it was impossible for him to defeat or even kill Cao Bin in a short period of time.

After all, Cao Bin had so many people behind him. If he saw that the situation was not good, he would definitely retreat to the back of the crowd quickly.

The onlookers were all stunned by this sudden change. No one expected that the girl guarding the hostages on Cao Bin's side was actually an undercover agent planted by Jiang Fan in advance.

This is truly absurd.

If there was anyone besides Jiang Fan who had any doubts about this matter, it would only be Meng Xuan, who arranged it, and Tang Qingyu, who had a level 2 spirit body and amazing eyesight.

Cao Bin reacted immediately after exchanging blows with Jiang Fan, raised his right hand, and slapped Meng Xuan, who was already pale and trembling uncontrollably from the sudden turn of events, across the side.

“Pah!”

His level 2 spirit body's power was terrifying. Even though he had restrained himself, Meng Xuan was still knocked off her feet and fell to the ground instantly. Her face, which was covered in exquisite makeup, was visibly red and swollen.

"You bitch, you better give me an explanation!" Cao Bin's eyes were bloodshot, his tone was icy, and a murderous intent was faintly revealed.

He lost the entire game by a single move, leaving him no choice but to be furious.

What's more, this loss was due to someone close to him.

"I...I don't know..." Meng Xuan's eyes were filled with terror, her body trembled uncontrollably, and her tongue began to become incoherent.

"You're asking for it!" Cao Bin cursed, kicking Meng Xuan in the stomach. "I told you to have someone keep an eye on that brat, and this is the person you sent?"

"No...she's not..." Meng Xuan's tone was tinged with fear, but even more so with grievance.

"Damn it, if she wasn't someone you arranged, why didn't you tell me sooner?!" Cao Bin was furious and kicked her in the stomach again with a "bang".

"vomit--!!"

Meng Xuan's hair was disheveled, tears and snot streamed down her face, and her body was curled up like a boiled shrimp. The intense pain in her abdomen caused her to gag incessantly.

"You son of a bitch, hurry up and tell me why?! Otherwise I'll kill you right now, you bastard!" Cao Bin showed no sign of stopping and continued to kick Meng Xuan again and again.

This scene only increased everyone's disgust for him.

Even among their own people in the martial arts world, their eyes showed a significant change, whether out of fear or something else, it was hard to tell.

Qin Muyao tried to step forward to stop her, but Tang Qingyu held her back: "Have you thought about how she looks when she's framing others? If the other party wasn't Jiang Fan and his group, they might already be dead because of what she did."

"But...but..." Qin Muyao hesitated, looking at Meng Xuan's pitiful appearance.

Cao Bin's companion, the bespectacled boy Li Wenzhou, tried to stop him several times, but in the end he chose to give up.

Although Bai Feifei, who was behind Jiang Fan, no longer felt like a "best friend" to Meng Xuan, she still couldn't bear to see this scene and turned her head away.

Nangong Yue frowned slightly, but didn't say anything more.

Finally, Jiang Fan calmly spoke up: "Let me speak for her."

Cao Bin stopped what he was doing, his eyes blazing with fury: "You're here to speak for her? I knew it! Has she secretly sided with you? This idiot woman, so what if she sidees with you? When it really matters, she'll still be thrown away like trash!"

"I...I didn't..." Meng Xuan said with difficulty, his face contorted in grief, blood spilling from his mouth and nose.

"You don't need to make wild guesses. If she really had sided with me, I wouldn't have just watched you abuse her without doing anything. After all, you said I'm 'the benevolent and charitable Jiang Xuande'."

Cao Bin looked surprised and remained silent.

Jiang Fan continued, "You have a violent temper and often beat and scold those around you. She must have sensed something was wrong before, but she didn't dare to say anything or ask you for fear of upsetting you. Or she might have thought you had made other arrangements, or she might simply have thought that the person she arranged had something come up and found someone else to replace her."

In short, this isn't her problem; it's your own personality that's problematic, making those around you hesitant to even speak to you.

"You're talking nonsense! When have I ever been violent?!" Cao Bin cursed, grabbing the shirt of the bespectacled man next to him and pulling him over. "Li Wenzhou, you tell me, is there something wrong with my temperament?!"

"I...I..." Li Wenzhou's forehead was covered in sweat, and his lips trembled.

"You son of a bitch, speak up!" Cao Bin's eyes flashed with malice as he threw him to the ground. "I hate you bunch of cowardly trash the most."

Then he grabbed Wang Chao, who was slowly retreating into the crowd, and pulled him out: "You tell me! Do I have a problem with my temper?"

"...No problem! Of course no problem! How could Brother Cao have a problem with his temperament? It's all just Jiang Fan talking nonsense." Wang Chao smiled broadly. He regretted his earlier overconfidence in pushing his way to the front of the crowd, otherwise he wouldn't have ended up in this predicament.

But he hadn't always been by Cao Bin's side, so he didn't know much about Cao Bin's brutality. Therefore, even though he was a little scared, he still told the whole story.

"Hmph! That's more like it!" Cao Bin snorted coldly and threw Wang Chao aside.

He looked at Jiang Fan again, his eyes flashing with malice: "You don't think I can't do anything to you just because I can't convict you, do you? It would be great if I could kill you with a legitimate reason, but even without a just cause, you will still die today!"

Then he looked at Nangong Yue: "And you, you stinky..." "Although I don't know what methods you used, I don't care to know! Today I won't kill you; instead, I'll let you know that there are prices more terrifying than death in this world!"

His eyes gleamed with lewdness, the meaning of which was self-evident.

But Jiang Fan seemed not to hear Cao Bin's threat. He looked at the group of martial arts figures behind him and asked loudly, "Cao Bin is tyrannical and indiscriminately kills innocent people. Now he wants to fabricate false charges to exterminate us. Are you all unable to distinguish right from wrong and still want to aid and abet evil?"

The expressions of the people in the martial arts world changed slightly, but in the end they remained silent.

Wang Chao laughed and said, "Are you an idiot? Things have come to this point, and you still expect me to reason with you?"

Cao Bin remained silent with a mocking expression, seemingly thinking that Jiang Fan was still so naive even on the verge of death.

He then waved his hand, and people from all walks of life flocked to this side.

Seeing this, Lin Feng and his men grabbed their weapons and charged towards the crowd, and a major battle was about to break out.

"If that's the case, then they deserve to die." Just then, a smile suddenly appeared on Jiang Fan's lips, and he shouted loudly, "Where is the Court of State Ceremonies?"

"Here!" A loud shout rang out from the crowd behind him.

With this shout, eight figures suddenly shot out from the crowd behind Jiang Fan and landed heavily in the arena.

The group of martial artists were caught off guard and their steps suddenly halted. Those behind them were caught off guard and some even started shoving each other.

Cao Bin's expression also changed abruptly: "Where are Xiang Tian's group? Weren't they supposed to hold off Feng Peter?"

Just then, Jiang Fan called out again, "Where is Xiang Tian?"

"Here!" Another loud shout rang out, and four figures crashed into the arena.

At this point, the entire audience was stunned!
