Just as there was no time to react, a dull sound was heard, followed by a shadow flashing, striking violently.
Startled, I quickly reached out to catch it.
Before realizing anything unusual to the touch, I suddenly felt as if struck by lightning between my chest and abdomen.
I spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and was sent flying backwards.
However, the person I caught steadied himself, turned to look, and couldn't help but shout:
"Alliance Leader Chi!!"
Then turned back angrily to glare at Luo Ningguang:
"What a move, hitting a cow through a mountain!"
This person was Xu Junsang, and after a furious shout, he turned back and rejoined the battle, making successive vicious moves.
Luo Ningguang's martial arts were already lacking, and being under constant strong attack, could only defend without the ability to counterattack.
"Bastard!"
Wu Daoyou was furious seeing this:
"Zeng Youwang, control your dog!!"
"How unreasonable, even if Alliance Leader Wu cannot seize the grand position, is there any need for such insults?"
As they fought, their tempers flared more and more, Wu Daoyou's longsword flashed sharply, and Sword Qi swept through the hall.
Zeng Youwang, however, did not use any weapon, flying and evading with extraordinary footwork technique.
Hua Qianyu watched quietly, sneaking a glance at Wei Ruhan.
Wei Ruhan gently shook his head.
Wei Ziyi frowned tightly and was about to head towards Chi Lu when a streak of Sword Qi swept past, cutting through the air in front of her.
She stopped immediately and turned back, only to hear a crash, Luo Ningguang was knocked through the window by Xu Junsang, flying outside the hall.
In the next moment, the sounds of fighting resumed from outside the hall.
In just an instant, there was a loud crash in the hall, and the door was knocked open as a group of people charged in.
Some helped Wu Daoyou, some helped Zeng Youwang, some wanted to protect the Alliance Leader, and some wanted to protect the Miss...
The entire hall of the Luofeng Alliance turned chaotic in an instant.
Chi Lu lay on the ground, being trampled on several times before waking up from unconsciousness.
Looking up, he still couldn't figure out what was happening in the hall.
And several more feet came towards him, clueless, he couldn't even figure out how to defend and fainted again.
The situation was now completely out of control.
Inside the hall, outside the hall, sounds of slaughter were everywhere.
Suddenly, boisterous laughter was heard, coming from afar and quickly approaching.
In the blink of an eye, it was already in front of the hall:
"Luofeng Alliance occupies the Southwest, a grand reputation indeed, and seeing it today proves its worth.
"Even other sects, vying for power, cannot avoid open and hidden struggles.
"But only Luofeng Alliance fights so openly..."
With that, Hua Feng's tone turned extremely sharp:
"Aren't you ashamed?"
This person's voice, vibrating with Inner Strength, covered the entire City Lord Manor, even those outside watching could hear it clearly.
As the sounds of fighting were heard from the City Lord Manor earlier, these people knew that the fight for the grand position had indeed gone awry.
From the apparent rationale to punches and kicks.
And now with this statement, it solidified the matter.
Immediately, some people were curious and tried to get closer, and even though Luofeng Alliance had been prepared, they couldn't resist the crowd.
In just a moment, a group of Jianghu people leapt over the walls, rushing into the Luofeng Alliance's courtyard.
And among these people, there were indeed those who just wanted to watch.
But more had ulterior motives!
Stepping over the courtyard wall didn't stop them; they rushed towards the City Lord Manor's hall.
True onlookers, seeing this, thought those people wanted to get a closer look, and immediately charged forward as well.
The result, however, was as expected, only to be stopped by the disciples of Luofeng Alliance within the City Lord Manor after a few steps.
Real onlookers intended to turn and leave, but saw these 'onlookers' respond by immediately killing without a word.
The true onlookers were dumbfounded:
"Just to see something exciting, is this necessary?"
Once they came to their senses, they understood what was happening, and now it was too late to leave.
Front and back, a group of people had already surrounded the entire City Lord Manor, leaving no gaps.
At this moment, two people walked into the hall entrance.
One wore an iron mask, striding in boldly.
The other covered their face, entering the hall together with the Iron Masked Man.
The one who had just spoken wasn't anyone else but this Iron Masked Man.
This person's Inner Strength overwhelmed all, surpassing everyone present.
Zeng Youwang was the first to step forward:
"Who are you?
"Today is the Luofeng Alliance's internal meeting, outsiders are not welcome!"
Now in the hall, it wasn't just the original Eight Alliance Leaders.
Each of their followers was also present.
Housekeeper Huang, Huang Yuan, stood beside Wei Ziyi, then moved next to Wei Ruhan, while Hua Qianyu remained seated without any change.
However, as the Iron Masked Man entered, he couldn't help but focus on the person's face, frowning slightly, with a faint sense of familiarity.
"Outsider?"
The Iron Masked Man laughed heartily:
"After searching for life and death for over twenty years, upon returning, I've become an outsider!"
"Who exactly are you?"
Wei Ruhan looked at this person: "What is your purpose in coming today?"
"Old man..."
The Iron Masked Man also looked at Wei Ruhan: "Do you really not recognize me?"
As he spoke, he suddenly stepped forward, the iron mask on his face flew off suddenly, enveloped with a howling, rushing directly at Wei Ruhan.
Wei Ruhan's eyebrows slightly furrowed, yet he saw Wei Ziyi stepping forward, the Zhai Xing Sword in her hand pointing out.
With a clanging sound, the clash of metal rang abruptly.
The stalemate lasted but a moment, and the iron mask shattered into pieces, scattering in all directions.
Wei Ziyi then stepped back, sheathed her sword, and stood beside Wei Ruhan again, one hand behind her back so no one could see that her palm had been cut open, bleeding continuously.
Yet those present did not pay attention to Wei Ziyi, instead, their eyes were all on the face of this Iron Masked Man before them.
Some were dumbfounded, some were speechless in shock, and others gasped in surprise.
Wei Ruhan's pupils contracted, his eyes full of disbelief.
Only Hua Qianyu spoke softly:
"Wei Qixiong, you're alive!?"
