Though Cangben Wuzang was powerful, he dared not allow the likes of the great elder, a seasoned Innate Grandmaster, to strike his vital spot at the back of the heart, so he hastily turned around to combat the great elder.

Taking advantage of this moment, the second elder also caught up, and the two joined hands to battle Cangben Wuzang.

"Haha! Do you really think you can stop me? Today, not a single soul of the Jiang Family will be spared, in consolation to the spirit of my disciple, Gongben Liangtian, in heaven!"

Cangben Wuzang laughed wildly, aggressively attacking both the great elder and the second elder.

In just an instant, the two elders found themselves at a disadvantage.

The third elder climbed up from the ground with a look of shock, stumbled over to Shen Xiaoqin, and hurriedly checked her breathing.

Phew!

The third elder heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the great elder had struck Cangben Wuzang first, and since Cangben Wuzang had also held back his strength, barely saving one in a hundred. Otherwise, Shen Xiaoqin would most likely have perished by this time.

Jin Chong also shakily stood up, his face pale with fright as he ran to the third elder's side.

He had been sent from above to protect Shen Xiaoqin. If Shen Xiaoqin were to die in front of him, he could not shirk the blame!

Puh!

Just as the third elder was about to help Shen Xiaoqin up, a sharp pain erupted in his chest as he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, mixed with fragments of his internal organs.

"Third Elder, you..."

Jin Chong was horror-stricken.

"Heh heh..."

The third elder suddenly let out a bitter laugh, now fully aware of the state of his body.

"Jin Chong, take Xiaoqin and leave immediately. She's Chen'er's mother, we can't afford any mishaps. Hurry!"

All of a sudden, a determination to face death appeared in the third elder's eyes as he shouted lowly, and then his body shook violently.

Immediately after, an unstoppable aura surged forth from his body.

"Come and fight your third elder, sea people!"

With a loud cry, he angrily charged toward Cangben Wuzang!

After glancing at the third elder's resolute back, Jin Chong bit his teeth, picked up Shen Xiaoqin, and leaped out of the Jiang Family Courtyard.

"Stop them, don't let Shen Xiaoqin get away!" Jiang Minghui shouted forcefully.

A group of collateral family guards rushed forward to intercept, but they were desperately held back by the direct family's own group of guards.

"Big brother, second brother, run, take Hu Zi and go!" The third elder shouted loudly, rushing in front of Cangben Wuzang, launching a fierce offensive.

"Older brother! You, you reversed your Cultivation Technique?!" The great elder's face changed drastically, exclaiming in shock.

"Third brother!" A look of horror also appeared on the second elder's pale face.

"I'm done for! All my internal organs are shattered, there's no way I can survive. Big brother, second brother, you must go!"

The third elder's anguished cry rose as his aura soared once more, seemingly on the verge of a breakthrough.

The great elder and the second elder were both shaken to the core, and in unison roared, "Let's kill this bastard together!"

Buzzing!

The aura around both the great elder and the second elder rose sharply.

"Haha! All three of you will die here!" Cangben Wuzang let out a ferocious laugh, his aura bursting forth, filling the entire Jiang Family Courtyard with an overwhelming presence.

"Big brother, second brother, both Bo Wen and Xiaoqin are severely injured or poisoned. If you were to stay here as well, what would Chen'er do upon his return? Go and find Bo Wen and Xiaoqin now! I'm already a dead man, I can only hold this bastard back for you. You must leave now!" The third elder shouted desperately.

"Third brother..."

The other two elders called out in sorrow.

"Big brother, second brother, I still remember what Chen'er said, 'despicable as dog butchers.' Although I have no blade in my hand right now, I have righteousness in my heart. Let me use this dying body of mine to carry out the final duty for the Jiang Family!"

The Third Elder fought Cangben Wuzang with all his might while shouting loudly.

At this moment, he had already put life and death aside.

He wanted only to offer his blood to the heavens!

The eldest and second elders, with tears glimmering in their eyes and their bodies shaking violently, understood that their younger brother was right.

"We... Let's go!"

Thus, with a struggle flashing in their eyes, they suddenly turned and dashed toward the battleground where Yan Hu was.

"Where do you think you're going!" Cangben Wuzang bellowed, his figure moving to chase after the eldest and second elders.

"You stay with me!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Third Elder shouted, and a burst of blood mist exploded from his body, unleashing a soaring aura from within him.

The Jiang Family Martial Arts, when the Cultivation Technique is reversed, can increase one's strength for a time. But upon a complete reversal, the entire body's meridians would burst open, while at the same time, gaining a significant and temporary increase in power.

Cangben Wuzang, feeling the Third Elder's aura, gave him a serious look but still aimed to capture the eldest and second elders.

"Go to hell!" the Third Elder roared, slamming his palm viciously at Cangben Wuzang.

Cangben Wuzang dodged with a swift movement, his expression fierce as he retorted, "If you want to die so badly, I'll grant your wish!"

Bang! Bang!

The Third Elder and Cangben Wuzang clashed several times. Though the Third Elder had activated a secret technique, he was still being overpowered by Cangben Wuzang.

Bang! Bang!

With two muffled thuds, the eldest and second elders broke into Yan Hu's battle circle and instantly went all out, forcing back two samurai and taking the severely injured Yan Hu out of the Jiang Family Courtyard.

Cangben Wuzang's expression changed drastically. He slammed his palm into the Third Elder's chest, intending to send him flying.

But as the Third Elder was struck, he suddenly embraced Cangben Wuzang instead of being thrown back, holding tightly onto his waist.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Cangben Wuzang struck the Third Elder's back with three consecutive palms, shattering all of the bones in his body, but the Third Elder still clung to him, biting down and continuously spitting out fresh blood, staining Cangben Wuzang's clothes blood red.

"Bastard!"

With teeth clenched in fury, Cangben Wuzang let out a roar of anger. Since he was no longer able to catch up with the eldest and second elders, he delivered a vicious palm to the Third Elder's head.

Boom!

The Third Elder's head instantly burst open like a watermelon. However, a set of old teeth remained stuck in Cangben Wuzang's clothes.

Slap!

Cangben Wuzang swatted away the Third Elder's teeth, his expression savage as he charged into the Jiang Family's guard formation, bellowing, "Kill them all, don't leave a single one alive!"

In an instant, the entire Jiang Family Courtyard became a blood-drenched hell.

Whether it was the guards from the direct line or those from the collateral branches, all were indiscriminately slaughtered by Cangben Wuzang!

Jiang Minghui stood trembling in a corner, his complexion pale, legs shaking uncontrollably and only able to stand by leaning against the wall.

But as he watched his own people being slaughtered, Jiang Minghui kept silent, biting down hard on his lips, afraid to make the slightest noise that might draw the frenzied Cangben Wuzang's attack!

Yet, in his heart, he was screaming:

Jiang Chen, you forced my hand, I will kill you, Jiang Chen...
