Bang!

Xue Mingtai and An Zichen were caught by the Mad Python formed by Professor Chen's Gang Qi, both staggering backward.

An Zichen and Xue Mingtai were both experts at the initial stage of Gang Strength, and Xue Mingtai was weaker.

He had been consulting An Zichen daily for months about the martial dao mysteries of the Fire-Planted Golden Lotus and finally gained some insight.

This allowed him to break through from the peak of Danjin to the Yellow-Ranked Gang Strength.

Originally, this was already quite an amazing achievement, yet it was still too weak in front of Professor Chen.

An Zichen was somewhat better compared to Xue Mingtai.

She had already broken through to Mysterious-Ranked Gang Strength, but couldn't fight the Demon Emperor head-on.

Professor Chen turned around and aimed a finger at Yang Fei's forehead, his eyes revealing lethal intent.

The Turtle Extreme within Yang Fei roared in near despair, clearly sensing the destruction approaching.

Splurt!

Yang Fei bit through his tongue tip, unleashing his Dragon Elephant Strength explosively.

With clenched teeth, he met Professor Chen's finger with the Brahma Fetal Giant Hand Seal, accompanied by a thunderous boom.

Boom!

Seeing things were not going well, Professor Chen shifted his finger into a palm, meeting Yang Fei's strike head-on.

With a muffled noise, Yang Fei's body flew out like a stringless kite.

Even though Yang Fei's left hand had been fortified by the Turtle Shield, his arm bone was still broken by Professor Chen's peerless palm force.

Yang Fei could feel the explosion of power from Professor Chen's palm.

That immense power was like a flood enveloping, impacting his entire body's meridians.

He pushed Snake Devouring to its limits but still couldn't absorb or eliminate the massive force released by Professor Chen.

He could only take a deep breath, launching a palm strike at a large nearby tree.

With that strike, he released all the power devoured by Snake Devouring.

The flood-like power instantly fractured the tree's trunk.

Even then, Yang Fei's internal organs were injured, and he couldn't help but spit out blood.

Following this, Professor Chen's actions nearly swept away the four experts.

Except for An Zichen, nearly everyone was injured.

Roar!

Professor Chen roared at the sky, bending his waist, leaping forward, intending to kill Yang Fei.

Bang! Bang Bang!

At this moment, Special Forces from Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions appeared from the shrubs downhill.

The dark muzzles pointed at Professor Chen, firing shots.

Almost simultaneously, three sniper bullets almost blasted the Demon Emperor's head.

Three snipers had locked onto the Demon Emperor's body, but when the moment came to shoot, he still dodged aside.

Nothing in this world moves faster than bullets.

However, when martial arts skills reach the Demon Emperor's realm, their intuition about danger becomes incredibly sharp.

Before the sniper gun fired, he had instinctively anticipated the bullet's trajectory and dodged it.

Such people, unless covered with intensive heavy fire, generally render ordinary snipers ineffective.

Nonetheless, even so, the Demon Emperor dared not stay.

Grabbing the Sword Emperor from the ground, he fled nimbly toward the rear mountain.

Countless members of Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions pursued him, bullets flying wildly.

Yet the Demon Emperor's figure was indescribably fast, disappearing like a flash under the moonlight.

Yang Fei struck the tree and sighed heavily.

"He got away; catching him later will be difficult. What a pity, what a pity."

Xue Mingtai smiled faintly, watching Yang Fei with concern.

"He's consumed half a divine crystal, already half a demigod."

"Being able to survive a battle with a god is already quite fortunate."

Yang Fei scoffed, his nostrils flaring.

"God? What nonsense. Didn't we handle Apollo and Poseidon just fine?"

An Zichen replied quietly, "What do you know?"

"The divine crystal the Demon Emperor devoured is a true god crystal."

"Carrying ancient true god's legacy and strength, incomparable with Apollo and Poseidon's false godhoods."

Yang Fei was taken aback, "You all know? I thought only I knew."

Xue Mingtai smiled slightly.

"Even though Zi Chen was recuperating, our information is definitely not inferior to yours."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't bother with your affairs."

Yang Fei recalled Athena Deloris's words and groaned.

"Damned pen with no flowers, just two and a half divine crystals worldwide, and now one's in Huaxia's territory? Who can live with that?"

An Zichen glanced at him, and a smile appeared on her pure and beautiful face.

"That doesn't sound like the Yang Fei I know."

"If your Nine Extremes Technique is perfected, a mere half divine crystal is nothing; even Zeus wouldn't be your match."

Yang Fei's spirit revived, seemingly humble yet obviously proud.

"Is Nine Extremes that impressive? Haha, it's just average."

Xue Mingtai and An Zichen exchanged wry smiles.

Despite being a Core Formation to Divine Communication expert, he still behaves mischievously; truly, nature is hard to change.

In the distance, sporadic gunshots sounded, gradually fading away.

All four sighed simultaneously.

Such pinnacle experts are beyond Hidden Dragon Nine Division's reach.

Only the four present could tackle capturing the Demon Emperor and Sword Emperor.

An Zichen looked solemn.

"I propose continuing the pursuit while the Sword Emperor is gravely injured and lacking combat strength, and the Demon Emperor has depleted some Gang Strength."

"If the Sword Emperor recovers or the Demon Emperor breaks through again, we might never have the chance to capture them."

Xue Mingtai and Sword Emperor agreed decisively, but Yang Fei shook his head.

"The Demon Emperor is cunning and adaptable."

"If he dared to break through and save the Sword Emperor, he must have further plans."

"Besides, we're all injured, making capture difficult."

An Zichen snorted, "Are you pursuing or not?"

"If not, I and Ming Tai will return to the Mysterious Country to recuperate."

Yang Fei immediately smiled widely, "Yes, of course, let's pursue, let's go."

As he spoke, he snapped his broken bone back in place and bandaged it.

An Zichen snorted, her clothes trailing as she led the chase.

Xue Mingtai and Sword Emperor followed behind, Yang Fei tailing them.

Facts proved Yang Fei's judgment was accurate.

The Demon Emperor, along with the Sword Emperor, broke through the encirclement, fled Red Leaf Villa, and disappeared.

The last surveillance showed them boarding a van with plate number ending 778, vanishing like they evaporated from the human realm.

That night, Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions' agents and dark scouts from the Yannan Underground World thoroughly searched the underground world.

Yet, they couldn't find the van or trace the Demon Emperor and Sword Emperor.

As daylight broke, Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions' Special Forces had to retreat, declaring the operation a failure.

Xue Mingtai, An Zichen, and Sword Emperor were quite dejected, but Yang Fei seemed indifferent.

An Zichen usually acted calmly.

For unknown reasons, seeing Yang Fei like this infuriated her, and she glared at him.

"Why are you laughing? If you can't capture the Demon Emperor and Sword Emperor, they'll return and be the first to kill you."

Yang Fei shrank his head, looking innocently at An Zichen.

"Wukong, are you scaring your master again?"

An Zichen's face turned pale as she slowly opened her palm.

A small Gang Qi Burst immediately appeared in her hand.

"Do you believe I could tear you apart with this palm?"
