Chapter 2630 - 2629: Calculations and Miscalculations

This Mang Mountain Avenue is indeed brimming with confidence.

And bold enough.

It's important to realize that although the Xuntian Mansion is currently in disarray, it is still the Xuntian Mansion.

A colossal entity that has ruled the Sky View Corner for countless years.

It's often said that when the tiger falls from power, it gets bullied by dogs.

Yet some things, like a centipede, will never truly die.

This saying can explain quite a bit.

In such a critical moment, they dare to come to the Xuntian Mansion, a testament to their immense courage.

However, their luck was indeed good.

The strong ones in the Xuntian Mansion were all at the back mountain.

And the capable Elders and Honorary Elders were either fleeing or hiding.

In such a time, self-preservation becomes paramount; with everyone concerned for their own lives, who could care for others?

Originally, these few individuals only intended to rob and then flee.

But they unexpectedly encountered Shen Baizhi.

The Saintess of the Zhou Di clan, no less.

With her status, she could prove invaluable.

Hence, the Mang Mountain Thieves revealed themselves, intending to capture Shen Baizhi.

As for Xu Zimei standing beside them, they instinctively ignored him.

Though Xu Zimei currently had Jiang Rui's appearance, the Young Clan Leader of the Xuntian Mansion was always considered a useless wretch.

No one would pay him any mind.

Thus, with beauty before them, they overlooked Xu Zimei.

Upon seeing these three, Shen Baizhi felt a hint of fear.

After all, these three were notorious.

She couldn't help but grab Xu Zimei's collar.

At this moment, Xu Zimei was still searching for a place where one's Divine Soul couldn't penetrate.

He naturally didn't want to waste time with these three.

So he said, "Three ants, truly courting death, aren't you?"

Hearing this, the Mang Mountain Three Thieves frowned slightly.

At this moment, the third brother seemed to have recognized Xu Zimei.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I was wondering who it was, to be so bold with their words."

"Turns out it's you, the useless scoundrel."

"Boss, this time we've hit the jackpot. Not only the Saintess of the Zhou Di clan, but we've even encountered the Young Clan Leader of the Xuntian lineage."

"Capture both and we'll have the two clans pay dearly; this windfall is enough for us to retire."

These Loose Cultivator thieves, despite their fearsome reputation, had their own struggles.

Cultivation, whether it be wealth, companions, methods, or lands, requires it all.

Among these, wealth ranks first.

Without the support of powerful forces, without a large family backing you up, trying to become a strong cultivator alone is unimaginably difficult.

The three brothers committed every crime imaginable, looting and raiding.

Each operation was a gamble with their lives.

If they mistakenly provoked a real power, then they'd be doomed.

Fortunately, over the years, the three brothers had been careful.

They never crossed people they couldn't afford to provoke.

Their targets were mostly other Loose Cultivators.

However, this time the opportunity presented by the Xuntian Mansion was too tempting.

The benefits outweighed the risks.

So, the three brothers took a bold step forward.

With such a godsend opportunity today.

If they managed to capture Xu Zimei and Shen Baizhi.

The cultivation resources for the rest of their lives could be obtained from the Xuntian and Zhou Di families.

No need for looting and pillaging again and again.

The risks were simply too high.

Although extorting these two clans carries even higher risks.

This time, they planned to do the job and then disappear.

No matter how vast the universe is, could the two clans search every corner for them?

At this moment, the three were confident of their victory.

After all, they were seasoned veterans.

There was nothing they hadn't seen.

Thus, the second brother was the first to make a move.

In their eyes, some things couldn't wait.

It's best to abduct the two quickly and leave.

If the powerful ones of the Xuntian Mansion caught wind, it'd be over.

The three of them might meet their end today.

So, the second brother took the initiative.

His Wolf Fang Club swooshed through the air.

Tearing through the void with a sound wave.

With a loud "boom," it was about to crash onto Xu Zimei.

However, the second brother held back slightly.

He restrained his power when striking Xu Zimei, lest he turned him into mincemeat.

Rendering him immobile and half-dead was enough; leaving a breath alive was all that mattered.

Given that these great forces have miraculous pills, they could surely bring him back later.

Even if he held back somewhat, the strike was still like a mountain collapsing, appearing fierce and mighty.

But Xu Zimei merely extended a hand.

Then, under the stunned gazes of the crowd,

he casually caught the Wolf Fang Club.

"What, so light? Didn't you eat?"

Xu Zimei chuckled.

This strength he had displayed, though recently shown, had only circulated within Xuntian Mansion.

Outside, the perception of Jiang Rui as a useless dandy hadn't changed.

So the second brother never imagined that the seemingly worthless Young Clan Leader of the Xuntian Mansion could possess such power.

At that point, Xu Zimei let go, and the second brother withdrew his Wolf Fang Club in time.

He roared.

Seemingly unconcerned now about Xu Zimei's life or death.

Gathering all his surrounding strength.

The surging power created a shockwave capable of shattering the heavens, as if tearing apart the entire firmament.

The ground below him continuously cracked.

It truly showed the magnitude of the second brother's momentum this time.

And that's not all.

The second brother roared, and on his Wolf Fang Club, an image of a black ape seemed to be roaring.

"Giant Ape Barbaric Stick."

This was his most powerful move.

He loved the Wolf Fang Club, believing it to be a weapon of large, sweeping arcs, exceptionally handy.

So when the Wolf Fang Club fell, it seemed like the sky was collapsing, with staggering power.

Yet Xu Zimei, witnessing this scene, merely smiled.

In the next moment, he stood still.

As if allowing the Wolf Fang Club to land and strike him.

But next, with a "bang,"

at a distance of half a meter from Xu Zimei, the Wolf Fang Club appeared to be blocked by an invisible force.

Unable to advance an inch.

"How is this possible," the second brother turned pale.

This was his all-out attack.

Witnessing this, the eldest and youngest brother weren't foolish.

They shouted simultaneously.

"We assist you."

They had gone through life and death; realizing something was amiss with the scene before them.

At this moment, they disregarded Xu Zimei's so-called dandy identity.

At this moment, the eldest brother raised the axe in his hand.

As he swung it down, the battle axe, already immense, seemed to be drawn by an unseen force, growing even larger as it descended.

Seemingly occupying the entire firmament.

The axe blade seemed capable of cutting through obstacles, slicing mountains, and parting waters, unstoppable.
