Murong Fu was dumbfounded.

Although I knew long ago that Zhang Sanfeng had a fiery temper when he was young, I didn't expect him to be so carefree at the age of one hundred.

Zhang Zhenren is a man of true character.

The two elders of Xuanming exchanged a glance, both somewhat panicked, not expecting Zhang Sanfeng to be so crazy.

Lu Zhangke hurriedly said, "Zhang Sanfeng! Release the princess! Otherwise, I will order my men to fire arrows!"

Hebi Weng gave his men a wink, and they immediately grabbed a boy.

Hebi Weng grabbed the boy by the throat and threatened, "Zhang Sanfeng, this is your grand-disciple. Release the princess, or I will kill your grand-disciple!"

"It's Wuji! They've captured Wuji!"

Yin Susu ran out from the back room, tears streaming down her face.

Zhang Cuishan rushed over and hugged Yin Susu, saying, "Susu, calm down! Leave her to Master!"

Yin Susu cried, "That's our child, how can you expect me to stay calm?"

"Enough!"

Zhang Sanfeng spoke in a deep voice:

“Go ahead and kill my grand-disciple. I will kill your princess, slaughter the entire Ruyang Prince’s Mansion, and wipe out the entire Yuan Dynasty’s high-ranking officials. Kill as you please. It’s just a matter of ruthlessness. I’ve never been afraid of anyone.”

Zhang Sanfeng's expression was very calm, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Everyone was stunned; this was too ruthless!

Should I just choose to switch places with someone else?

The Xuanming Elders were in a dilemma. They didn't care that the high-ranking officials of the Great Yuan Dynasty were all dead, but they were afraid that Zhang Sanfeng would kill them too if he became ruthless. They didn't want to spend the rest of their lives being hunted down.

"Master Zhang, you have won."

Zhao Min was frightened. She smiled and spoke, her face showing no fear, but deep apprehension flashed in her beautiful eyes.

She was only sixteen, still very young, and didn't want to swap homes with a centenarian.

Zhang Sanfeng said expressionlessly, "Tell them to withdraw their troops and remove the gunpowder, or this old Taoist priest will still kill your whole family!"

"good."

Zhao Min nodded and shouted, "Withdraw the troops! In the future, when you see anyone from the Wudang Sect, give them a wide berth!"

"Yes, sir!"

The officer had no choice but to obey the order and retreat.

The soldiers quickly withdrew, and the Taiji Square fell silent once more.

Lu Zhangke shook his wooden staff, smashing it into the ground and making a hole. He said loudly, "Can you release the princess now?"

Yin Susu shouted, "Release Wuji first!"

Lu Zhangke looked at Yin Susu with disdain: "What are you? You dare to speak?"

"you……"

Yin Susu was furious. If she were still the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Eagle Sect back then, how could this person dare to speak to her like that?

"You old dog! You dare to insult my apprentice's wife!"

Zhang Sanfeng made another feint and captured Lu Zhangke.

Lu Zhangke was momentarily stunned; he had been careless! He hadn't dodged!

"Release my senior brother immediately! Or I'll kill this brat!"

Hebi Weng looked wary and grabbed Zhang Wuji by the throat, taking a few steps back.

Zhang Wuji was already sixteen years old and bore a striking resemblance to Zhang Cuishan. Although he had been captured and taken hostage, he showed no fear whatsoever: "Old dog, kill me if you want, or I'll admit defeat if you blink!"

After saying that, he bit down on Hebi Weng's palm.

"ah!"

Crane Pen Weng was in extreme pain and slammed a palm into Zhang Wuji's back, but Zhang Wuji also took the opportunity to roll and crawl to Zhang Sanfeng's side.

Zhang Wuji's face flashed with both flames and cold light, alternating between hot and cold, emitting cold air and hot mist, and cold sweat seeped out, quickly soaking his clothes.

"Wuji!"

Yin Susu rushed over and hugged Zhang Wuji.

Zhang Cuishan quickly took Zhang Wuji's pulse: "Not good! Wuji has been hit by the Xuanming Poison Palm. The cold energy has invaded his heart meridian, but there seems to be another true energy in his body resisting it."

"You're asking for it!"

Zhang Sanfeng was enraged and suddenly punched Lu Zhangke.

Seeing that things were not going well, Hebi Weng abandoned his partner and fled.

"No!"

Lu Zhangke watched helplessly as the fist formed from the primordial energy of heaven and earth slammed into him, leaving not even a trace, but a cloud of blood mist.

Song Yuanqiao sighed, "Master! You were too impulsive. You should have spared his life. Wuji's cold poison hasn't been cured yet."

"What can we do now that we've already killed him? Let me try to heal Wuji's wounds."

Zhang Sanfeng shrugged. He didn't regret it. A real man should kill when he should kill. He was more effeminate than a woman if he kept hesitating.

With that, Zhang Sanfeng picked up Zhang Wuji and walked towards the back hall.

Yin Susu and Zhang Cuishan followed behind.

Song Yuanqiao looked at the many martial arts practitioners and said, "I am truly sorry, many unexpected things have happened today. The birthday banquet is now over. Please descend the mountain in an orderly manner."

After saying that, Song Yuanqiao also walked towards the back hall.

Song Qingshu glanced at the Emei Sect members with lingering reluctance before following them.

Having survived the ordeal, Zhao Min twisted her neck. She had genuinely thought Zhang Sanfeng was going to kill her; his hand, imbued with vital energy, had gripped her tightly, leaving marks on her delicate neck.

Zhao Min walked towards Murong Fu and clasped her hands in greeting: "The famous Murong of the South and Qiao Feng of the North in Songzhou, Young Master Murong, I have long admired your name."

"Hehe, Princess Zhao Min of Ruyang Prince's Mansion, I have long admired your name." Murong Fu smiled slightly, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate her veil.

Zhao Min smiled knowingly, then winked teasingly, "Oh? Young Master Murong has truly heard of my great name?"

Murong Fu nodded and said, "Indeed, I have long heard of Princess Zhao Min of the Ruyang Prince's Mansion in Yuanzhou. She is exceptionally intelligent and beautiful. It's just a pity that I was quite disappointed when I met her today."

"You mean I'm not smart enough?"

Zhao Min seemed somewhat unconvinced.

Murong Fu shook his head and said, "It's not that she's not smart enough, but that she's not pretty enough."

Azi sensed a sense of crisis and interjected, "Hey, Princess, all your men have left. Aren't you afraid to be alone?"
