Meanwhile.
"Boss, Shan Ji is close to death," said Xiang Jiao Jun. "You watch them for me, I'll go help."
"Alright, go ahead," Little Demoness immediately released two streams of black energy, stabilizing the Hong Ying sisters.
"Cough... cough..." Shan Ji coughed a few times and struggled to get up.
His chest was scorched black.
A faint smell of roasted meat wafted through the air…
"Ptooey!" Shan Ji spat out the blood in his mouth and cursed, "Damn, that hurts so much…"
"Shan Ji," Xiang Jiao Jun, who had arrived, quickly supported him. "You're injured, leave the rest to me."
His tall, sturdy back instantly reassured Shan Ji.
Every time he was in danger, it was Brother Jiao who stepped forward to save him.
Such a friend was truly reliable!
But he didn't want to hide under this shadow forever!
Ever since he was humiliated at the entrance of the brothel, Shan Ji had vowed to become stronger!
Only the strong could earn respect.
Only then would he have the right to protect what he wanted to protect!
"Brother Jiao, I'm fine," Shan Ji shook his head. "This is my battle, I want to finish it!"
What a touching and inspiring scene!
According to normal development, the next thing that would happen was a scene of deep brotherhood, even more moving and inspiring.
Shan Ji would personally speak about his future aspirations, pushing the atmosphere to its peak.
Unfortunately, such scenes usually only appeared in movies and TV shows…
The reality was…
Ling Hefan's second attack had already arrived!
If it weren't for Shan Ji's momentary shock at not dying just now, the attack would have come even sooner!
"Bang—!"
Before Shan Ji could finish his rant, he was hit again…
And Xiang Jiao Jun was unlucky enough to take a hit too…
The two immediately rolled far away on the ground, clinging to each other…
The originally moving and inspiring scene instantly became incredibly awkward…
Xiang Jiao Jun spat out some dust and helped Shan Ji stand up.
"Brother Jiao, don't worry about me…" Shan Ji was clearly disoriented and pushed Xiang Jiao Jun away. "I can still fight…"
Before he could finish speaking, his head lolled to the side and he passed out.
Xiang Jiao Jun quickly checked on him.
"It's fine, he just fainted…"
Then…
"Bang—!"
The two were knocked down again by Ling Hefan's attack…
Little Demoness, standing nearby, hadn't made any move from start to finish, completely in a spectator's stance.
After all, Ye Fan had said.
Shan Ji had the bloodline of the Vermillion Bird flowing through him, and the Vermillion Bird was known as the Phoenix.
Let alone Shan Ji being severely injured and unconscious now, even if he were killed, it wouldn't be a big deal.
He could always be resurrected anyway.
Xiang Jiao Jun was terrifying!
In Ye Fan's words, no one in this world could truly kill the Tree of Life!
Even if it were smashed into a pulp on the spot, it would only be a superficial death.
This thing simply couldn't die!!!
Since that was the case, she naturally had nothing to worry about.
However, to be honest.
She was quite envious of their abnormal abilities.
When Xiang Jiao Jun stood up again, Ling Hefan's attack had arrived.
"Bang—!"
Blue lightning fiercely struck Xiang Jiao Jun's back!
Fortunately, he was prepared this time and wasn't knocked down again.
After the attack disappeared, Xiang Jiao Jun grabbed Shan Ji and threw him towards Ye Fan and the others.
Then, Xiang Jiao Jun turned around and took another new attack head-on!
"Bang—!"
The immense impact caused fine cracks to appear in the ground beneath his feet.
Ling Hefan, suspended in mid-air, frowned.
Xiang Jiao Jun had taken three or four of his attacks consecutively, yet he seemed to be unharmed.
Was this guy too resilient?
Why were these guys one more abnormal than the other?
"Haa—!"
Xiang Jiao Jun let out a roar and tore his clothes again!
His piercing gaze was fixed on Ling Hefan in the air!
After fighting for so long, it was my turn!
You hurt my brother, and today you must pay the price!
His body left trails of afterimages.
A bizarre dance reappeared.
Ling Hefan's body trembled instantly…
He didn't know why.
It wasn't fear, but his body inexplicably shivered…
What perplexed him even more was that the figure of the perverted exhibitionist in his eyes began to blur and distort…
The true qi within him became sluggish, refusing to respond no matter how he urged it…
Even his hand holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji began to feel weak…
This was not right!
Something was very wrong!
At the same time, a wave of demonic energy, colored gold and green, flew towards Ling Hefan!
The demonic energy transformed into a large banana, emanating a strange allure.
A voice suddenly appeared in Ling Hefan's mind, shouting.
"Pick it up, pick it up!"
Ling Hefan's left hand moved uncontrollably towards the large banana…
The moment his hand touched the banana, Ling Hefan's true qi was completely sealed!
His consciousness also began to fade…
Suddenly!
A tall figure appeared in Ling Hefan's mind!
It was his father!
"He Fan, what are you doing!"
"Lingxiao Palace awaits you to restore its glory, how can you fall here!"
"Wake up!"
Ling Hefan's head buzzed, and his consciousness instantly returned!
Ling Hefan seemed to regain a little control of his body. He slightly loosened his grip on the demonic energy banana.
His hunched body also showed signs of straightening up!
"Hmm?"
Xiang Jiao Jun, who was dancing, changed his expression.
He had never failed before this!
This enemy was stronger than expected!
Xiang Jiao Jun's expression became serious!
His dancing body produced even more afterimages!
And as he moved, Ling Hefan's half-retracted hand stopped again…
A hint of confusion appeared in his eyes, and his hand once again uncontrollably grasped the banana formed by demonic energy…
"Wake up!"
His father's voice echoed in his mind again!
Ling Hefan's head buzzed violently, and he regained his clarity.
He let go, his body trying to straighten up.
Xiang Jiao Jun increased his output.
Ling Hefan bent down again, reaching out to grab the banana.
This cycle repeated…
The scene became increasingly bizarre…
Time passed bit by bit.
Thinking is a good thing in itself.
The problem is when someone like Xiang Jiao Jun gets distracted during a fight…
He had succeeded before, so why couldn't he now?
Where did he go wrong?
Was there something that needed to be improved in this technique?
…
And during his moment of distraction, the suppression of Ling Hefan by his "Free Dance" technique loosened slightly…
Ling Hefan decisively seized this opportunity!
"I am Ling Hefan!" Ling Hefan roared. "I cannot die here!"
A surge of true qi, even more violent than before, erupted from him!
His body began to ascend higher.
"Whoosh—!"
The wind grew fiercer!
At some point, large dark clouds had gathered in the sky.
Muffled thunder rumbled within the clouds.
"Rumble—!"
Suddenly!
"Crack—!"
A lightning bolt as thick as an arm instantly struck Ling Hefan!!!
His long hair whipped wildly!
His eyes shot out arcs of electricity, like two small light bulbs!
Countless blue arcs of electricity crackled and wrapped around his body!
At this moment, Ling Hefan was like Thor reborn!
