Chapter 1676: Chapter 1676: Who Do We Help?

“Who’s there?”

He furrowed his eyebrows and asked Su Tang beside him.

After all, he didn’t recognize anyone from the Feather Abyss Plane; asking Su Tang was definitely the right move.

“The leader of Liushang Sect,” Su Tang said in a low voice.

That long spear was the trademark of the Liushang Sect leader; it was said that since his debut, it has never left his hand—not even while he was eating or sleeping.

One wonders if the rumors were true.

“Tsk tsk, he really showed up,” Zhan Beiye clicked his tongue twice.

No sooner had his voice faded than a number of people appeared behind the purple-robed person, bearing vicious gazes and staring at them.

“Leader, there’s no one else nearby, just these people,” the man in black clothes closest to the purple-robed person reported; they had already made a round in the vicinity and didn’t see anyone else.

“Just this bunch of people?”

The purple-robed person looked at Zhan Beiye and his group with disdain.

Suddenly, he noticed Xiang Qiyan, who was still unconscious on the bed, and broke into a smile.

“It really is Lord Yan; the treatment is indeed good. Even in the Zhedu Sea Area, you get to sleep in such a nice bed. One would think you’re here for training,” he said in a dark tone.

Upon hearing this, Zhan Beiye simply curled his lip and said nothing.

This time, the Liushang Sect had really brought a considerable number; they had at least twice as many as Zhan Beiye’s group. If it came down to individual fights, they surely wouldn’t be a match.

So…

He moved his hand slightly, and the five Paper Persons that An Jiuyue had given him were already in his palm.

“Hand over Xiang Qiyan, and I might let you live,” the purple-robed person spoke again.

“Pfft.”

With a sword in hand, Su Tang scoffed.

Did they really think they were fools to believe they’d be spared?

“Tough words are easy to say. I was thinking, not a single one from Liushang Sect is going to leave today!” He stepped forward with an icy voice and faced the purple-robed person.

“You don’t know your place, then don’t blame this sect leader for being impolite,” the purple-robed person said coldly and ordered his men.

“Kill them all, leave no one behind!”

“Yes.”

The assassins, upon hearing their leader’s command, immediately rushed towards Zhan Beiye and his group.

Su Tang and the guards didn’t fall behind; they charged toward the assassins, all drawing their long swords from their sheaths, and the scene turned into chaos.

“Brother Zhen, who… who should we help?”

Xuanyuan Zimo looked at the chaotic scene, feeling genuinely scared, turned to Brother Zhen, and asked.

“Is that even a question?”

There was really no need to hesitate. Why waste words?

They had come here with Zhan Beiye’s group, and in the eyes of Liushang Sect, they were all together. If Zhan Beiye and his group were all killed, they wouldn’t be spared either.

“Prepare to fight.”

Just as the brothers were uncertain about what to do, the men in black were already charging at them.

“Ah!”

Gu Qingyu saw the assassins charging ferociously towards them and involuntarily screamed while clutching her head.

“You’re after King Yan, it has nothing to do with us. I have no relationship with them, don’t kill me, don’t kill me; if you want to kill, go kill them.”

The brothers nearly went weak at the knees when they heard her words.

They had faced demonic beasts before, and Gu Qingyu hadn’t been like this. Was she trying to completely disgrace their sect?
