"Yes! It can withstand a full-force strike from a Late Virtual Refinement Realm expert!"

Ouyang Ruoxue nodded gently, telling the truth.

"Good!"

Jiang Chen looked up at the Virtual Refinement Realm expert on the city wall in the distance; judging from the Great Dao Wheel of Light, he was an Initial Stage of Virtual Refinement Realm cultivator.

"The Bu Family's main force should have passed through here earlier. From Changyun Prefecture to here, it only takes us three days on foot. They must think we won't come through this way and headed forward, leaving only some precautionary defenses here."

Jiang Chen whispered, "Judging by those blocking the road, it seems that there are no powerful figures from Anping City here. They must have all gone after us. This is an excellent opportunity, and attacking here is the safest choice. Forces elsewhere are likely much stronger than here!"

Jian Wuheng and the others nodded lightly at his words.

Anlin City is the closest to Changyun Prefecture. The Bu Family couldn't have imagined Jiang Chen and the others would attack here. Given their strength, having offended the mighty Bu Family, they would surely retreat far away, rather than seek a nearby teleportation array to return to the academy. Therefore, the defensive forces left here are barely better than nothing.

However, in the eyes of the Bu Family, leaving a single Virtual Refinement Realm expert at a city gate is sufficient to deal with Jiang Chen and the others, as their strongest member is only in the Late Virtual Refinement Realm.

Buzz!

Gradually, Jiang Chen and the other four entered the divine sense range of the cultivators at the city gate.

Huh?

The Divine Infant Realm cultivators at the gate all looked towards Jiang Chen and his group.

"Gentle Water Sword!"

"Earth Sword!"

"Ten Thousand Swords Unification!"

"Water Dragon Emerges from the Sea!"

Four explosive shouts resounded as Jiang Chen and his group launched a fierce attack before the opponent could react.

Roar!

Shua shua shua!

Wa wa!

A powerful Great Dao pressure emerged, and the entire space above the city gate was illuminated by a brilliant Great Dao Divine Light. Numerous fierce sword shadows surged towards the Divine Infant Realm cultivators in the air above the city gate.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's the ones the Family Head is looking for!"

"Capture them!"

The Divine Infant Realm powerhouses rushed to meet Jiang Chen and his group's attack.

"Torrential Flame Sea!"

"Flames Everywhere!"

Flames surged out from the bodies of the Bu Family's Divine Infant Realm cultivators, intertwining with the sword shadows launched by Jiang Chen and the others.

"Go!"

Jiang Chen shouted, quickly pulling Ouyang Ruoxue to retreat.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Buzz!

A voice filled with joy rang out as the Initial Stage of Virtual Refinement Realm cultivator left at the city gate rushed towards Jiang Chen and the others, blocking their path in an instant.

"Haha... Who would've thought! Truly unexpected!"

Bu Tingquan from the Virtual Refinement Realm laughed up at the sky, "I was sidelined by the family and assigned here, thinking I wouldn't have the chance to earn any merit. Who would've thought you all would turn back, trying to enter Anping City? This is truly a godsend, a heaven-descended great merit!"

Jiang Chen and the other three's expressions darkened, standing back to back.

At this moment, Bu Tingquan was in front of them, surrounded by a dozen Divine Infant Realm cultivators, encircling them completely!

"You little rascals, daring to steal from my Bu Family, truly audacious!"

Bu Tingquan sneered, the joy in his eyes unmistakable.

His talent was exceptionally mediocre, not well-regarded within the family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been sent to Anping City, a place the Bu Family thought Jiang Chen and the others unlikely to appear. The forces in Anping City wouldn't have all left with the Bu Family's main force without leaving anyone to help him guard!

Given his status in the family, he was not privy to the truth of this incident, truly believing Jiang Chen and his group had broken into the Bu Family to steal a treasure.

"Treasure? Does your Bu Family truly take the cultivators of Changyun Prefecture for fools?"

Jiang Chen spoke coldly, "If we could steal your family's treasure, wouldn't your Bu Family be a marketplace, allowing anyone to stroll in and take it?"

Bu Tingquan was slightly taken aback, this... seems to make sense, these guys' strength is indeed a bit too low, but...

"Dragon Swallows Rivers and Mountains!"

As Bu Tingquan was distracted, a low shout sounded, and Jiang Chen's body transformed into a White Divine Dragon, appearing instantly behind Bu Tingquan.

"Cunzheng Yidao Slash!"

The Saint Dragon Sword, full of killing intent, stabbed fiercely at Bu Tingquan's back. At the tip of the sword, a terrifying energy vortex swirled, and a five-colored Great Dao Divine Light emerged from the Divine Sword.

"You scoundrel!"

Bu Tingquan, both shocked and angry, felt the terrifying power from behind pose a threat of death, and in his fright, mobilized his entire spiritual power, emitting a terrifying Great Dao pressure from within him.

Buzz!

A fiery Great Dao Wheel of Light erupted from Bu Tingquan's body, a dazzling Great Dao Divine Light shooting into the sky, wrapping Bu Tingquan in torrential flames.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

The Saint Dragon Sword plunged into the flames but was blocked by an overwhelming force.

"You brat, you're courting death!"

An angry shout came from the flames, as a fiery hand materialized out of thin air, striking savagely towards Jiang Chen's chest.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a sword light flashed, and Ouyang Ruoxue slashed in, leveraging the sword momentum to reach Jiang Chen's side.

Bang!

A muffled collision sounded, as the fiery hand struck Ouyang Ruoxue.

Buzz!

As the fiery hand fell, Ouyang Ruoxue, who had prepared in advance, activated her defensive artifact, a gentle azure light flashing and enveloping her completely, blocking the fiery hand outside.

"Kill them!"

Bu Tingquan's furious roar came from the flames.

Being forced to use the Great Dao Wheel of Light for defense by a Divine Infant Realm early-stage cultivator and then having his furious strike blocked by another Divine Infant Realm early-stage cultivator, Bu Tingquan was nearly exploding with rage, a sense of humiliation welling up inside!

Whoosh whoosh!

The Divine Infant Realm powerhouses all rushed towards Jiang Chen and Ouyang Ruoxue.

Jiang Chen was already exhausted, and Ouyang Ruoxue, having withstood Bu Tingquan's furious strike, found her spiritual power dispersed. The two of them plunged downwards.

Swish swish!

Two figures appeared beneath Jiang Chen and Ouyang Ruoxue, catching them.

"Die, all of you!"

Bu Tingquan's angry roar sounded again from the flames, as another fiery hand formed once more.

Above them was the fiery hand, in front of them were a dozen Divine Infant Realm cultivators. Jiang Chen and his companions found themselves in a desperate situation!

Buzz buzz buzz!

Suddenly, Jiang Chen's forehead lit up with a blood-red light, an imposing sword intent exploding from his brow, the terrifying Great Dao pressure pressing down fiercely on Bu Tingquan and the others.

"What!?"

Bu Tingquan exclaimed, his heart trembling violently, the flames forced back into his body. Unable to withstand this immense pressure, he fell downward heavily.

Thud thud thud!

The Bu Family cultivators fell from the sky, crashing into the ground and creating a dozen large pits!
