The crowd sharpened their knives, approaching Chen Lan and others step by step, ready to strike.

"Grandmother, protect yourself well. At critical moments, you don't have to worry about me," Chen Lan said softly, whistling.

In an instant, the void tore open, and the Phoenix emerged, intimidating all around with its awe-inspiring aura bursting forth, shocking everyone.

Now, Chen Lan had the assistance of three Taoist Saints, showing no fear.

"I lost you once before; I will never lose you a second time," Yu Lin said solemnly, unleashing her aura without any reservation.

Unexpectedly, she was also a Taoist Saint; in a short period, Yu Lin had become a Taoist Saint!

Everyone was astonished; there were four Taoist Saints on Chen Lan's side. Although they had six Taoist Saints, the other side had four Beast Generals, making it difficult for them to act.

"Grandmother, you broke through to become a Taoist Saint!" Chen Lan was overjoyed, feeling more assured now.

"A Taoist Saint? So what? Kill them!" Ye Qingmu said coldly, taking the lead, "Flowers and Leaves Falling in the Sunset!"

Buzz!

In an instant, a sword hum echoed through the heavens and earth, and time seemed to stand still. Countless petals and leaves appeared out of thin air, falling like a blanket, covering the sky and earth.

Seeing this, Chen Lan's pupils shrank slightly, and he shouted coldly, "Disperse."

He sensed a terrifying, powerful Sword Intent in those petals and leaves. Each petal and leaf contained a supreme, terrifying Sword Intent, even a slight touch could injure someone. With so many attacks, extreme caution was required.

But despite Chen Lan's warning, the Golden-Winged Roc inadvertently touched them, splitting open a wound, continuously bleeding, looking extremely terrifying.

"Scatter!" Chen Lan shouted coldly, slashing with his sword, the fierce Sword Qi erupting from the blade, tearing through the void, shaking space, and instantly sweeping away the petals and leaves with a gust of wind, averting a crisis.

Because of Ye Qingmu's move, the horn of war was sounded!

"Charge!" Yang Jian shouted coldly, brandishing his three-pointed double-edged sword, and in a flash, his figure disappeared. He reappeared directly behind Chen Lan, aiming a heavy strike at the back of his head.

Chen Lan didn't turn around, but he sensed the incoming attack and swung his sword behind him with one hand.

Clang!

Sparks flew as they clashed, releasing intense spiritual power that rippled out.

Others rushed in, with the four Beast Generals and the Phoenix battling against the four Beast Commands. Yu Lin fought against two from the Ye Family, trying to awaken her two controlled children.

"Let me meet you!" At this moment, a voice rang out, sounding very childish, like a child's.

Chen Lan turned his head, seeing a Flame Spear approaching his face, but his reaction was extremely quick. He immediately used the Way of Time, pausing for a second to dodge the attack.

"The Way of Time!" Yang Jian and Nezha exclaimed in surprise, feeling a bewildering sense in that brief second. Moreover, Nezha's attack should have hit.

"Acting like country bumpkins," Chen Lan sneered, unleashing a burst of Sword Qi, tearing through space, rapidly charging towards Yang Jian and Nezha.

Boom!!!

Yang Jian raised his three-pointed double-edged sword, resisting heavily, the intense explosion pushing them back hundreds of thousands of meters.

"Your strength seems not to be inferior to mine," Yang Jian frowned. From the Sword Qi just now, he could confirm that Ye Lan's mastery of the Sword is definitely profound. The Sword Dao might have reached the utmost realm, and his cultivation is probably high, possibly a Taoist Saint.

Reaching Sword Emperor's level at such a young age is terrifying and cannot be allowed to remain!

"Xiao Tian, attack!" Yang Jian shouted coldly, as a large Black Dog suddenly darted out of his sleeve, fast as lightning, lunging at Chen Lan.

Then, Yang Jian also charged out, raising his three-pointed double-edged sword high, his aura suddenly surging, becoming even more terrifying.

Seeing this, Chen Lan's pupils narrowed, quickly retreating tens of thousands of meters, raising his left hand high, and swinging it down fiercely.

Rumble!!!

In that instant, countless heavenly thunder roared and raged like Flood Dragons, descending from the sky, bombarding Yang Jian and the Heaven-Howling Dog.

But these heavenly thunders, in front of Yang Jian, were like cotton, posing no threat. Yang Jian effortlessly neutralized them with simple weapon swings.

"Furious Flood Dragon!" At this moment, Nezha's voice echoed, and a massive Fire Dragon appeared out of thin air below Chen Lan, opening its bloody maw, charging upward ferociously.

"Go!" Chen Lan shouted coldly, as the Void Space above his head cracked open, and a Frost Giant Dragon burst out, colliding fiercely with the Fire Dragon, causing an explosion as ice met fire.

"Ahhhh!" At that moment, a miserable scream echoed, distracting Chen Lan. He turned his head and widened his eyes.

The Golden-Winged Roc was caught by Ye Qingmu, who ruthlessly tore its wings apart, the blood of the Daoist Venerable instantly staining the sky and saturating the earth.

"How dare you get distracted during a battle?" Suddenly, a voice sounded by his ear, startling Chen Lan.

Boom!!!

Chen Lan felt a heavy blow to his chest, sending him flying backward, crashing directly into the Huaxia region, creating a large crater.

Frightened, countless Huaxia people looked towards the crater in surprise.

"Was that just now Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable?"

"It seems like it, he was ambushed, there are just too many enemies."

"What should we do? Should we go check it out?"

"No, it's fine, the Array will hold, the enemies won't easily get through!"

Just as those words were spoken, the sound of Array shattering echoed. The crowd looked up in terror, seeing Yang Jian casually slashing, shattering countless Arrays, his power too much for the Array to withstand!

"Mere Array, trying to stop me?" Yang Jian sneered slightly, unabashedly disdainful, looking at those low-realm Huaxia people as if they were ants and beasts.

"Do you know, your realm is inferior to that of pigs and dogs?" Yang Jian sneered, swinging his three-pointed double-edged sword, releasing a terrifying force.

"Do you know, that in my eyes, you're also no better than pigs and dogs." Suddenly, a voice rang out, as a sharp Sword Qi shot out from the deep pit, negating Yang Jian's attack.

As the dust settled, a figure slowly emerged from the pit, with countless people watching, they had never seen Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable's true face, but now, they would!

As Chen Lan's handsome, youthful face emerged before countless eyes, everyone was momentarily stunned, gasping in surprise, awestruck.

Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable was so young, he looked no more than a university student!

Had they always been protected by such a young person?

In people's minds, Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable had been an older, successful business tycoon, whose personality was not like a student's—so low-profile, so calm, so intelligent.

At that moment, the image of Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable in their minds was overturned, Chen Lan's visage filled their hearts.

Young, handsome, and domineering, especially that silhouette, full of security, calmed them!

"Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable, so damn handsome."
