After the incident, the soldiers of the B Battalion who were firmly protected by Xu Shan behind them felt as if the ground was split open and the mountains were shaking.

So much so that they couldn't even stand steadily.

The entire earth cracked like a spider web.

Some even spread to the feet!

The birds and beasts within a radius of dozens of miles scattered in all directions.

Because of the explosion, rocks and foreign objects kept falling from the sky, hitting the leaves, the ground and the stream surface nearby, making a "pa pa" sound.

Xu Shan, holding the blade tightly in his hand, still stood tall in front of them.

Like a towering mountain, it blocked the violent storm coming towards them.

It's not just him...

Zhang Liansong, on the left, was holding a bloody human head in his hand. There were many scratches on his Feiyu suit, but no damage to his skin.

Wang Qinian, on the right, held a scimitar dagger stained with blood. As he brought the blade down, drops of blood fell to the ground with a "pat, pat" sound.

There were also dozens of figures wearing camouflage uniforms, with faces painted with colored clay, holding blades to protect them.

Those who are familiar with the configuration of the Inspection Department can recognize at a glance that this is the "Ghost Pavilion" specially established by Lord Xu.

Their attire can blend perfectly with the surrounding environment even during the day, making it convenient for them to hide.

This confrontation lasted for dozens of breaths!

Until the dust and fog slowly dissipated, the soldiers of the Yi Battalion could vaguely see...

It turned out that there were dozens of assassins lying in ambush beside him.

"One ninth-grade, plus one pseudo-ninth-grade. Plus, dozens of masters..."

"Master He, this is one of the few trump cards your Five Poison Sect has, right?"

'Clap. '

When Xu Shan finished speaking, a tall and thin figure appeared in front of everyone.

At this moment, he had a hideous bloody wound on his left shoulder, but it should have been simply treated with hemostatic drugs.

The old woman who retreated to his side had disheveled hair and her right ear had been cut off, with blood staining her shoulders and clothes.

Xu Shan's three powerful sword strikes, the first of which shattered the sneak attack of He Tietian, the leader of the Five Poison Sect, and the second, severed the right ear of the accompanying Death-Calling Grandma. This was accomplished even though she was blocking and dodging with all her might.

As for the third knife...

Although it was partially blocked by the [Poison-infused Holy Blade] summoned by He Tietian, the remaining force was still on his shoulder, leaving a bloody wound.

"I've heard a lot about Master Xu, you're a master of planning."

"I, He Tietian, pride myself on having handled this situation quite thoroughly. I wonder what made you notice something was amiss."

When Xuan Yueyu drew his sword and Ghost Pavilion appeared on the scene, He Tietian knew that the young man in front of him, although not fully prepared in advance, was at least secretly wary of them.

Especially Xu Shan's calmness in the face of the assassination attempt, and his seamless counterattack...

It didn't seem like a hasty attack at all, but more like a counterattack that he had already deduced several times in his mind!

"If this was a siege targeting the Yi Camp, Sect Leader He could have chosen potent poisons like Broken Heart Powder and Crane's Beak Red, instead of the highly representative Five Poison Powder and the incapacitating Rehmannia root."

"I suspect your ultimate goal is to target Xu Shan and the elite members of the Inspection Department."

"Letting the scouts go to help here is to lure us out, and giving Qi to the critically ill soldiers is to consume our Qi."

"The whole process was performed perfectly. The only mistake was that when he asked me to remove the poison from the killer, his voice was too loud."

"How could his voice be so high-pitched after being poisoned and having a massive bowel movement?"

When Xu Shan pointed at the two assassins who had been killed and said this, He Tieshou nodded heavily and said, "So, they deserve to die."

“Death in the details!”

"However, Master Xu's strength truly impressed this Sect Leader."

"A ninth-grade cultivator who has reached adulthood still possesses such a powerful inner strength. This is truly rare..."
