Chapter 448: Chapter 139: Massacre Across All Sides!!!

The few people in the scene raised their eyebrows at these words, and after exchanging glances, they all fell silent.

Indeed!

Who isn’t curious about how Fang Zheng managed to do it?

If he could do it, then if others learned his secret, could they not do it too?

If it’s possible...

No matter how great the cost, it’s worth it!

"Investigate!"

The old man spoke in a low voice:

"We must find out Fang Zheng’s current location, even if it means mobilizing an army to besiege him, we must capture him!"

"In this modern society, such a lawless ruffian, who has killed over a hundred people, must not be allowed to remain!"

"Haha..." Xiao Chen laughed heartily:

"Now that’s more like it!"

"Bang!"

"Boom..."

Just as they were discussing, a loud noise suddenly came from outside.

The two doors of solid wood, each more than a foot thick, flew sideways into the courtyard, breaking free from their frames.

Where the doors went, courtyard walls collapsed, stone pavilions shattered, and the meticulously designed landscaping was wrecked beyond belief.

The large mansion was crisscrossed with two straight paths.

Finally.

The two doors plunged obliquely into the pool, with their sharp corners pointing upward, surfaces battered and worn.

"Who?"

"What’s going on?"

"..."

The courtyard was abuzz with noise.

"Where’s Xiao Yun?"

The dust cleared from the Xiao Mansion’s gate, and Fang Zheng stepped out, speaking slowly:

"Let him come see me!"

His voice wasn’t loud, yet it spread far and wide, so much so that even places several miles away could hear it clearly.

Xiao Yun!

The Patriarch of the Xiao Family.

One of the most powerful figures in Xia Country today.

This person’s methods were formidable, making a name for himself in his early twenties, and he carried many honors.

Who dares to call him by his name directly?

People in the surrounding courtyards who heard the voice were taken aback, and with a single command, lots of information converged.

"Fang Zheng?"

"He’s in Celestial Continent now?"

"So fast! Such courage!"

Matters regarding Fang Zheng were still a secret, but the nearby Noble Families were adept, and within moments, they had learned some of the inside story.

The one who killed Xiao Jingming hadn’t gone into hiding, but had instead directly stormed the Xiao Family’s gates.

Such speed!

Such audacity!

As outsiders were in shock, the Xiao Mansion had already descended into chaos.

"You with the surname Fang."

Xiao Chen walked out from the back courtyard, roaring loudly:

"Though there is a road to heaven for you, and no gate to hell, you still intrude upon the Xiao Mansion. You’re courting death!"

"Where is Xiao Yun?" Fang Zheng scanned the surroundings:

"Let him come see me."

"Want to see big brother?" Xiao Chen scoffed coldly:

"You think you’re worthy!"

"Not coming out?" Fang Zheng lowered his gaze:

"No problem, once I deal with you, where else can he hide?"

"Open fire!"

Xiao Chen’s eyes widened, yelling loudly:

"Kill him for me!"

Before he finished speaking, gunfire erupted within the courtyard, as hidden guards lurking in the shadows pulled their triggers.

The Xiao Family, as one of Xia Country’s top Noble Families, not only raised hidden guards but also possessed the finest firearms.

Those bullets could easily penetrate steel plates.

Not just hidden guards.

On the walls, under the stone slabs, in every hidden corner, mechanisms popped out, revealing rows of gun barrels.

Gun barrels spitting fire, enveloping Fang Zheng’s position completely.

"Rat-a-tat..."

"Bang!"

Rocks shattered.

The stone steps at the mansion’s entrance became riddled and perforated in an instant under the onslaught of bullets, and the gatehouse collapsed with a crash.

"Swish!"

"Swish, swish!"

Fang Zheng displayed his body technique, moving like writhing lightning, weaving through the rain of bullets converging on him.

The assault was so swift and fierce that even he felt tremendous pressure.

It was like advancing against raging waves; his Protective Force trembled, and the True Qi within him surged violently.

"Imperial Decree!"

"Go!"

Fang Zheng’s expression remained unchanged, his hands waving, and one Spirit Talisman after another was activated, water streams sweeping the surroundings to form a water ball.

Water Dragon Talisman!

Water,

Utterly virtuous and soft.

Yet with just a foot of water flow, even powerful bullets would have minimal energy after penetration.

Especially the water formed from Talismanic Magic, akin to thick sandbags.

Three feet of water flow could block sniper rifles!

Even if a shell exploded nearby, as long as the power of the Talismanic Magic remained, the person inside would remain unharmed.

"Big Dipper Sevenfold, spirits overseeing the heavens; Celestial Spirit Grand Saint, with myriad radiance."

Starry Dipper Rune!

This rune was among the more potent Talismanic Magic of Master Jiuyuan, able to invoke the Evil Qi of the Big Dipper.

The Spirit Talisman burned, and immediately seven strands of menacing Qi swept out.

Where the Qi passed, vegetation withered, the hidden guards’ skin withered, and their hearts grew faint, falling one after another.

"Swish!"

Fang Zheng stepped forward, bringing his single hand down.

A surge of unmatched True Qi arose fiercely within his dantian, and a ball of lightning appeared suddenly, wrapped in a piercing whistle that tore through heaven and earth, transforming into a glaring blade aura, cleaving forward, straight for several dozen meters.

"Boom!"

This blade,

Split the earth, shattered the courtyard walls, and plunged into Xiao Chen’s body, the violent power instantly tearing his flesh to pieces.

Fang Zheng’s expression remained unchanged, his hands moving back and forth, producing a continuous display of Thunder Blade Aura dancing throughout the courtyard.

With Thunder Sabers sweeping, nothing could stand in their way.

In an instant.

The Xiao Mansion’s buildings collapsed, the ground cracked, one hidden guard after another perished, and numerous firearms were shattered to pieces.

Unlike when battling soldiers, this time Fang Zheng showed no mercy, unleashing ruthless attacks.

"Ah!"

A roar came from the back courtyard:

"Die, you fiend!"

An old man shrouded in black smoke leapt high, soaring several zhang toward Fang Zheng, with five extended fingers in mid-air, exuding an air of a claw seizing the heavens and the earth.

Hmm?

Fang Zheng raised an eyebrow, then seemed to realize:

"Possessed by a Fierce Ghost?"

"It seems your Xiao Family’s heritage is the Ghost Control Technique, no wonder you could build such an estate in a few generations."

"Indeed!" The old man wielded his Ghost Claw, roaring:

"Fang, go die!"
