BANG! BANG!

In mid-air, two figures flipped and soared amidst a flurry of flashing sword lights.

The red-clothed youth and Jun Moxiao were fiercely locked in combat, their skills seemingly evenly matched for the moment.

Although a vast disparity existed in their cultivation realms, Jun Moxiao showed no signs of imminent defeat.

What surprised Jun Moxiao was that the Monkey Leader’s attacks had become less ferocious after he joined the battle. It seemed the Monkey Leader had no intention of dealing a fatal blow to this red-clothed youth.

Jun Moxiao felt a flicker of disappointment. However, he also understood.

Regardless, this Monkey Leader was still aiding Jun Moxiao by intercepting some of the red-clothed youth’s attacks. Otherwise, the pressure on him would have been far greater.

Jun Moxiao discovered that even after activating the second layer of his Reverse Dragon Technique, boosting his combat power tenfold, a significant gap still remained between him and the red-clothed youth.

Due to their superior numbers, the Xuanyang Sect disciples gradually suppressed the monkeys’ assault. More of them then began to incessantly attack Lei Qinian.

But Lei Qinian was protected by the Heavenly Treasures Cover above his head. Golden light descended from it, rendering all attacks incapable of penetration.

Lei Qinian sighed in relief.

He glanced around and, after a moment of hesitation, decided against activating the Heavenly Treasures Cover’s offensive function.

The Xuanyang Sect disciples, while battling the monkeys, relentlessly attacked Lei Qinian’s defenses. Unable to break through, they grew increasingly restless.

The monkeys attacked relentlessly. Though they sustained injuries, they fought fearlessly to protect Lei Qinian.

Lei Qinian was deeply moved by this.

"These monkeys are so annoying!" a red-clothed Xuanyang Sect Disciple yelled angrily. Dodging an incoming staff, he retaliated with a punch, sending a monkey flying.

"These monkeys are infuriating! They keep harassing us! Even if that fellow has a magical treasure for protection, he can’t possibly withstand the attacks of so many of us!" another disciple complained bitterly.

"Indeed..." the other Xuanyang Sect disciples chimed in, airing their grievances. This shared frustration only served to heighten their irritability and gloom.

"Kill!" A red-clothed youth, his face contorted with rage, finally lost control of his violent temper and viciously swung his sword at a monkey’s neck.

The monkey, engaged in combat with others, never anticipated someone would target its vulnerable neck. It couldn’t dodge in time.

With a flash of sword light, the monkey’s head was violently severed.

WHOOSH! A column of blood spurted from the bowl-sized wound on its neck.

"Kill!" Seeing someone make a lethal move, the other Xuanyang Sect disciples could no longer restrain themselves and began to strike with deadly force.

In an instant, the monkeys were routed. Many fell, while others, gripped by fear, turned and fled in panic.

Lei Qinian frowned deeply at this scene.

Seeing its clan members flee or lie dead in pools of blood, the Monkey Leader’s eyes turned bloodshot. It roared and, in a frenzy of rage, lunged at the red-clothed youth who had initiated the killing. It made no attempt to escape; it sought vengeance for its fallen clan members.

Witnessing this, Jun Moxiao recognized an opportunity and intensified his assault on the red-clothed youth. Streaks of sword light, shimmering with Divine Dragon Phantoms, filled the air, relentlessly striking at the red-clothed youth. The red-clothed youth parried desperately, appearing extremely hard-pressed.

Meanwhile, in another part of the battlefield, the other red-clothed youths, witnessing the monkeys’ utter rout, rushed towards Lei Qinian. They began to relentlessly assault the defenses of his Heavenly Treasures Cover.

"I’ll go all out!" Lei Qinian roared. Surging Mana from his entire body immediately poured into the Heavenly Treasures Cover.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The Heavenly Treasures Cover spun rapidly, emitting countless fine golden beams of light. These beams, like flying swords, shot towards the surrounding Xuanyang Sect disciples.

The Xuanyang Sect disciples were instantly stunned. None of them had expected the Heavenly Treasures Cover to possess offensive capabilities.

For a moment, everyone was in disarray. Some tried to block with their swords, while others hastily brought out their own magical treasures. Nevertheless, many were unable to withstand the attack of the Heavenly Treasures Cover’s golden light and were sent flying. Some were severely wounded; others perished on the spot.

Lei Qinian stared blankly at the disheveled Xuanyang Sect disciples around him, finding it hard to believe.

However, his Mana was now severely depleted. That single wave of attacks had consumed most of the Mana in his body. He was now incapable of launching a second wave. He could only barely maintain the golden light descending from the Heavenly Treasures Cover to protect himself.

WHOOSH!

A violent gust of wind swept through. The entire sky suddenly darkened. Dense black clouds roiled across the sky, and streaks of lightning began to flash within them.

"Why has the sky changed?" a Xuanyang Sect Disciple asked in surprise, looking up.

BOOM!

A deafening thunderclap echoed. Then, without warning, a bolt of lightning plummeted from the sky, striking that disciple. The disciple screamed and was instantly thrown sideways. His body, charred black and devoid of life, collapsed. He had perished on the spot.

This sudden turn of events terrified all the Xuanyang Sect disciples.

"Hahaha! Serves you right for killing the monkeys! The Great Saint is unleashing Heaven’s wrath!" Lei Qinian burst into laughter.

BOOM!

Another thunderclap sounded. Over a dozen bolts of lightning rained down from the sky, instantly claiming the lives of another ten or so Xuanyang Sect disciples.

"Run!" someone yelled. The remaining dozens of Xuanyang Sect disciples immediately conjured streaks of sword light and frantically scattered, fleeing for their lives.

The red-clothed youth, who was fiercely battling Jun Moxiao and the Monkey Leader, was also greatly shocked by this development. His entire body trembled. He burned his blood essence, causing his strength to surge temporarily. He blasted the Monkey Leader back and then transformed into a blood-red streak of sword light, shooting into the sky to escape.

BOOM!

A bolt of lightning descended from high above. That blood-red sword light was instantly struck down from mid-air. The red-clothed youth transformed into a charred corpse that crashed to the ground, rolled twice, and then lay motionless.

BOOM! BOOM!

Astonishing bolts of lightning rained down from all directions. None of the fleeing Xuanyang Sect disciples were spared; all of them perished.
