My strength increases by one percent every day; I can destroy stars with my bare hands.

"Kill him."

The old man with the disability was furious, wishing he could tear Li Xuancang to pieces.

A horde of demonic servants attacked Li Xuancang from all directions, intending to kill him on the spot.

"boom!"

Li Xuancang's aura changed, like an ancient ferocious beast awakening, emanating a chilling aura.

His eyes darted sideways and landed on the old man with the disability, and he was the first to attack him.

Although the Old Man with the Cripples wanted to kill Li Xuancang, he also knew how terrifying he was.

Seeing Li Xuancang charging towards him, he was terrified and circulated his inner energy to form a shield around himself.

"Bang!"

The old man's protective aura had just been formed when Li Xuancang shattered it with a punch and then swept a kick toward his face.

The old man with the disability hurriedly dodged, but Li Xuancang's foot brought a gust of wind that whistled past his cheek, leaving several bloody scratches.

Li Xuancang reached out and grabbed at his neck.

"Help me!"

The old man with the disability trembled and cried out for help to the others. If Li Xuancang caught him, his chances of survival would be slim.

Without the Heavenly Cripple Elder's reminder, the attacks from the other demonic servants had already reached Li Xuancang.

Ten attacks fell in an instant. Li Xuancang could not dodge them all, so he simply stopped dodging.

He braced himself with both hands, creating a blood-red barrier around himself to withstand the attacks from the crowd.

"Bang!"

"boom!"

"clang."

"..."

As the demon servants' attacks landed, Li Xuancang's barrier gradually crumbled, cracks appearing.

Li Xuancang's body trembled, and a surge of overwhelming qi and blood erupted, instantly repairing the barrier and firmly withstanding the combined attack of the demon servants.

"call out!"

After blocking the demon servant's attack, Li Xuancang swiftly moved forward and grabbed a demon servant who was at the early stage of the Qi Refining Realm.

"Help me, please help me!"

Captured by Li Xuancang, the demon servant cried out for help with all his might.

"what!"

Immediately, the cries for help ceased, and screams echoed across the wilderness.

Li Xuancang snapped the demon servant's neck, tearing his body in two, causing blood to spurt out.

Upon seeing this, the other demon servants' eyes widened, their bodies turned cold, and they trembled uncontrollably.

Li Xuancang was so ruthless that even they, who killed without hesitation, felt fear.

The demon servants halted, none daring to launch an attack.

After killing one person, Li Xuancang was not satisfied and turned to look at the demon servant.

His hawk-like gaze swept over the crowd, like a hunter selecting its prey.

"Retreat quickly."

The demon servant collapsed, no longer daring to fight Li Xuancang, and turned to flee back to the Demon Abyss.

Here, they could not obtain the blessing of demonic energy, and they were not confident that they could surround and kill Li Xuancang. They might even be in mortal danger, so they all fled in panic.

The demon servant fled back to the Demon Abyss. Li Xuancang did not pursue him, but turned and rushed towards Huang Huayuan and the others.

Li Xuancang quickly caught up with the group, and they recovered from their injuries outside the abyss.

Huang Huayuan and the others looked anxious, glancing frequently at the abyss, worried about Li Xuancang's safety.

"Senior brother, Lord Li is back."

Upon seeing Li Xuancang, everyone was overjoyed.

"Lord Li, are you alright?"

Everyone rushed forward to inquire.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine."

Li Xuancang reassured everyone, saying, "This place is not safe to stay any longer; let's go back first!"

No one objected, and they quickly returned to Liuyun County.

After receiving treatment, Du Tianfeng's condition finally stabilized, and he slowly woke up.

"My lord, you're awake."

Li Xuancang had been staying by Du Tianfeng's side, and when he saw him wake up, he was overjoyed.

Du Tianfeng looked around and knew that he had returned to the military camp.

"Xuan Cang, set off immediately and return to Anzhou City."

Upon regaining consciousness, Du Tianfeng disregarded his severe injuries and insisted on returning to Anzhou City immediately.

His departure from Anzhou City has been exposed, and those who have secretly pledged allegiance to Prince Fu may make a move at any time. He must return as soon as possible to take charge.

"My lord, your injuries are serious, and you should not travel."

Du Tianfeng is seriously injured and needs to rest.

He took pills that forcibly boosted his strength, which affected his foundation. He won't be able to recover for at least six months.

Moreover, in his current state, even returning to Anzhou City wouldn't solve the problem.

"I can hold out. You come back with me. Anzhou City must not be thrown into chaos."

Du Tianfeng was aware of his physical condition, but Anzhou City was too important to be lost.

Although he cannot take action, his mere presence in Anzhou City will instill fear in all factions.

Moreover, Li Xuancang will also return with them, and with Li Xuancang's strength, he is more than capable of suppressing any rebellion.

"Yes, ma'am."

Du Tianfeng insisted on returning to Anzhou City, and Li Xuancang no longer objected.

He was also worried about his family in Anzhou and wanted to return as soon as possible.

The army quickly assembled, and three thousand soldiers were to return together to quell the unrest.

"Lord Li, take care."

"Fellow Daoists, farewell until we meet again."

Li Xuancang bid farewell to Huang Huayuan and the others, and they decided to stay in Liuyun County to wait for the elders of the sect to arrive.

"Set off."

At Li Xuancang's command, the army set off, marching in a mighty procession towards Anzhou City.

Meanwhile, all factions knew about Du Tianfeng's departure from Anzhou City and were eager to make their move.

Dark clouds loomed over the city, a storm was brewing, and even ordinary people could feel the oppressive atmosphere in the air.

The Yan family is a top-tier aristocratic family in Anzhou. In recent years, the family's powerful members have been dying out one after another, leaving a gap in the generational gap and no one to carry on the family line. Other aristocratic families are eyeing the family covetously.

In order to protect themselves, and even go further, the Yan family had long since sided with Prince Fu and secretly colluded with him.

Inside the Yan family's secret chamber, leaders of various factions gathered, numbering nearly a hundred.

At the very top were three evil cultivators, the leader of whom was none other than Ye Wuchen.

"Gentlemen, Du Tianfeng and Li Xuancang's chances of survival in the Demon Abyss are slim. If we don't act now, when will we?"

Ye Wuchen had a cold expression, his body exuding a sinister aura, and his sharp eyes swept over the crowd.

They were from the Prince of Fu's mansion, representing the Prince of Fu, and they wanted to force everyone to take action, no longer giving everyone a chance to waver.

The leader of a minor power was very afraid of Du Tianfeng's power over the past decades and had some concerns.

"My lords, Du Tianfeng is only one step away from the Profound Realm. If he comes back alive, none of us can stop him. Should we wait for a while and confirm that Du Tianfeng is dead before taking any action?"

This person spoke the minds of everyone.

Du Tianfeng's power was too overwhelming, and without confirmation of whether he had died on the battlefield, they dared not go all out.

This is a heinous crime of rebellion, punishable by the extermination of nine generations of their family. It involves their lives and property, so they have no choice but to be cautious.

No sooner had this person finished speaking than Ye Wuchen unleashed a powerful palm strike.

"what!"

No one expected Ye Wuchen to make a sudden move, catching them completely off guard.

The person who spoke let out a death scream before his body was blown apart.

Blood and saliva flew everywhere, landing on everyone.

Everyone trembled, their hearts shook, and they remained silent as if frozen in fear.
