An elderly man with gray hair stroked his beard, his eyes filled with hope, as if he could already see the day when the Su family would regain its former glory. Although he was of a high seniority in the Su family, he was only a beginner-level martial artist, so his status in the Fang family was average.

"She can project her true energy outwards, so she must be at least a Martial Grandmaster. I always thought she was just a delicate maidservant who served the mistress of the family."

A young woman from the Su family covered her mouth, looking astonished, as if her previous understanding of Han Jiangxue had been completely overturned.

Just as everyone was talking amongst themselves, Fang Han, who was at the center of the storm, made a move.

Unlike Han Jiangxue, he didn't unleash dazzling moves or continuously shoot out countless bursts of energy.

He remained calm and composed, gripping the Xuan Tie sword tightly with both hands. He slowly channeled his true energy into the sword, and in an instant, the sword hummed, as if a giant beast was about to awaken.

Immediately afterwards, he swung his sword sharply, and a sword aura that seemed to split the heavens and the earth burst forth from the sword.

This sword energy seemed to possess sentience, rapidly swirling in the air and emitting a deafening whistling sound. Its immense power was terrifying, instantly sweeping away the energy surrounding Han Jiangxue like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind. Then, carrying boundless might, it continued to slash towards Han Jiangxue.

Han Jiangxue's beautiful eyes narrowed instantly, filled with astonishment and fear.

She truly hadn't expected that Fang Han, this seemingly unremarkable guy, would possess such terrifying strength.

That move she just made took a lot of effort; the layers of energy were incredibly oppressive, and she thought it would be enough to defeat her enemy. But in front of Fang Han, it was as fragile as paper and utterly vulnerable.

She dared not be negligent in the slightest. She took a deep breath, and her inner energy erupted like a volcano, pouring all of it into the black mace.

In an instant, the runes on the black mace shone, as if they had been given life, emanating a suffocating pressure.

She let out a delicate shout and slashed out with her mace, as if she wanted to cleave the sky open, barely blocking Fang Han's sword energy.

Fang Han's sword energy was incredibly swift and powerful, like surging waves crashing against the shore.

Han Jiangxue felt that this was not a sword aura at all, but a huge ship with an aura of crushing everything, crushing towards her.

Bang!

A loud bang, like a thunderclap.

Although the sword energy failed to sever her black mace, it still caused her considerable suffering.

The immense impact numbed her hands, making it impossible for her to hold the mace any longer. The black mace was thrown back by the powerful force and slammed hard into her chest.

She flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, tracing a messy arc in the air.

At the same time, the black mace flew out of his hand and fell to the ground with a clang, raising a cloud of dust.

Han Jiangxue's fall was like a heavy hammer blow to the hearts of the Su family.

In an instant, the spark that once held the future hopes of the Su family was ruthlessly extinguished and shattered.

The Su family members looked on expectantly at Han Jiangxue, hoping that she could turn the tide and defeat Fang Han with her powerful Foundation Establishment cultivation.

But now, reality is like a bucket of icy cold water poured over their heads, abruptly waking them from their beautiful dreams and plunging them into an endless abyss of despair.

You have to understand that in their minds, a Foundation Establishment Realm expert is already invincible in Yanming City, and it's impossible for them not to be Fang Han's opponent.

However, the cruel truth was laid bare before them: a Foundation Establishment Realm expert was as fragile as an ant in front of Fang Han, completely unable to resist and easily defeated. How could this not be astonishing, and how could it not completely shatter the Su family's hopes?

Su Yuanwu was just blushing with excitement at Han Jiangxue's display of Foundation Establishment skills, his eyes gleaming with fervor as he cheered and shouted at the top of his lungs.

But at this moment, with Han Jiangxue's defeat, that excitement seemed to be instantly pulled away by an invisible hand, and he felt as if his bones had been removed, collapsing to the ground weakly and powerless.

His eyes were empty and blank, and he muttered to himself, as if he still couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.

The group of experts from the Su family who arrived later were also completely poisoned. Like withered flowers battered by frost, their faces were as pale as paper, large beads of sweat rolled down their cheeks, their teeth were clenched, and their bodies trembled violently uncontrollably.

They clutched their abdomens tightly with both hands, curled up in pain, and rolled on the ground groaning.

Although the poison wouldn't kill them immediately, the excruciating pain clung to them like a leech, causing them to struggle in agony for a long time, unsure when they would recover.

Just when everyone was in despair or pain, Fang Han moved like lightning and a ghost.

Before Han Jiangxue could get up from the ground in a disheveled state, he swept over like a black gust of wind, reached out and grabbed the black mace that had fallen to the ground.

The black mace felt cold to the touch, yet it faintly emitted a powerful energy fluctuation.

Fang Han's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly made a hand seal. A faint light flashed, easily erasing the consciousness within, as if erasing an unimportant memory.

Immediately afterwards, he gently turned his wrist, and the black mace disappeared, stored in his Azure Dragon Ring.

In recent days, Fang Han's Azure Dragon Ring has accumulated a considerable number of magical artifacts, and even a few rare spiritual weapons.

These treasures, which are priceless and rare in the eyes of others, are to him nothing more than excellent materials for forging peerless divine weapons in the future.

Han Jiangxue had just struggled to her feet and hadn't even had time to steady herself when Fang Han's Xuan Tie sword, like a black lightning bolt, silently rested against her neck.
