Obtaining Top Art on Family's Extermination Night

During the day, he could have claimed it was a sneak attack by Fang Shuwen. But now, he genuinely tried to dodge, and genuinely failed.

With a casual press, he was left with nowhere to run.

"Kid... you, what are you going to do to me?"

Gu Yuxian’s bravado vanished. He had offended the man during the day, and now he was pinned down.

For a moment, his heart was in his throat.

Just then, three figures appeared at the door.

It was unclear where these three had come from. They first glanced at Fang Shuwen and his group, then at Gu Yuxian. The one in the middle then laughed and said:

"A few more have arrived."

After saying just those five words, the three of them leaped into the air.

In mid-air, they gathered power in their palms, a frigid aura manifesting around them!

One palm strike was aimed at Gu Yuxian, while the other two headed for Fang Shuwen and Grand Commander Liang.

Fang Shuwen casually tossed Gu Yuxian aside and suddenly struck out with the Twin Golden Lotus.

The palm strikes of the two men descended from mid-air, meeting Fang Shuwen’s own two palms.

But before they could even channel their power, they felt a massive vortex in Fang Shuwen’s palms, sucking their body’s True Qi completely dry.

The next moment, a backlash of force swept over them.

BANG, BANG, BANG! BANG, BANG, BANG!

Their flesh and acupoints exploded one after another, and the two figures were sent flying backward.

This series of events sounds complex, but in reality, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

By now, the palm strike from the third man, the one attacking Grand Commander Liang, was just about to land.

Just seeing this person’s attack made Grand Commander Liang’s expression turn extremely ugly.

He sent out a palm strike of his own, and the two palms instantly collided.

A frigid air spread from between their palms, instantly diffusing outward.

But at that very moment, the man opposite him cried out in alarm. Grand Commander Liang felt the space before him suddenly empty as the attacker was involuntarily pulled backward.

He looked up just in time to see the man land in Fang Shuwen’s grasp.

Five fingers clamped down on his head. With a single circulation of the North Nether Divine Technique, the man’s Inner Strength was drained completely in the span of a breath.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Fang Shuwen sent the man flying toward the Stone Gate.

However, the impact smashed his head to a pulp.

With just a few effortless movements, three men had become three corpses.

At that moment, Gu Yuxian felt his face stiffen, the corners of his mouth twitching uncontrollably.

’This Fang Shuwen is clearly the type to kill without batting an eye.’

’Why in the world did I have to go and provoke him for no reason?’

For the first time in his life, he hated his own rotten habit of flaunting his seniority and pulling rank.

’Judging by the kid’s murderous intent, I’m probably done for this time.’

To his surprise, however, after killing the three men, Fang Shuwen didn’t even spare him a second glance before leading Grand Commander Liang and the others through the Stone Gate.

After a moment of stunned silence, Gu Yuxian realized his back was drenched in a cold sweat.

Ordinarily, he would have probably resented Fang Shuwen for his arrogance.

But at this moment, he was just incredibly grateful.

"From now on, if I ever see that kid... I’m definitely taking the long way around!!" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Having narrowly escaped death, how could Gu Yuxian dare to think of anything else?

He felt that he never wanted to see Fang Shuwen again for the rest of his life. Wherever that man was, he had to give him a wide berth.

As for revenge?

’Revenge my ass! Didn’t he just save my life a moment ago?’

With that thought, he scrambled up the stairs without a backward glance, wishing his parents had given him two more legs.

...

...

Fang Shuwen hadn’t killed Gu Yuxian, mainly because it wasn’t necessary.

He wasn’t some kind of homicidal maniac.

The old man had a foul mouth, sure, but a good slap to the face was lesson enough. There was no need to be utterly ruthless.

As for the situation inside the Stone Gate... there was no need to ask.

’We’re already at the entrance. Why not just go in and see for myself?’

What surprised Fang Shuwen, however, was that the space inside was far larger than he had expected.

A long but spacious corridor stretched into the unknown.

The acoustics here were excellent, allowing them to hear the sounds of fighting up ahead. The group used their Lightweight Technique, and it still took them a while to reach the source.

Fang Shuwen glanced back, estimating that the corridor had already tunneled out of Flying Snow City.

The scene before them could only be described as a complete mess.

A large group of experts from unknown origins were locked in a fierce, inextricable battle with Xiao Yanyu, Liu Qi, the Flying Snow City guards, and another group of people Fang Shuwen hadn’t seen during the day.

The expert from the Golden Bell Tower was indeed remarkable.

Her Martial Arts were exquisite and agile, her movements beautiful to behold, but even with Fang Shuwen’s discerning eye, he naturally couldn’t tell which school or sect she belonged to.

As for Liu Qi... he seemed to be struggling, hard-pressed by his opponent’s attacks, yet he would always evade the killing blows by the narrowest of margins.

Watching him, Fang Shuwen felt a sense of familiarity and was suddenly reminded of Fang Mingxuan.

’Is this fellow holding something back?’

He scanned the area and saw Chen Qi in the crowd as well.

From the looks of it, he was already seriously injured.

But if he had to be honest, the most eye-catching thing in this chaotic battle was the donkey.

Chen Yan had actually ridden that donkey in. He was now leaning against the edge of the stone chamber, a book in hand, writing something as he watched the fight unfold.

Not far from him lay a corpse. Fang Shuwen took a second look, feeling a sense of familiarity, and finally confirmed it was the doctor they had been protecting all this time.

His maid, however, was nowhere to be found.

Meanwhile, from another stone chamber even deeper inside, the sounds of an intense clash rang out.
