C586 Both Sides Were in a Difficult Position
C586 Both Sides Were in a Difficult Position
This sudden change shocked everyone present. Even Chu Lian's heart tightened. He had thought that the outcome would be fifty-fifty, but he never thought that... A defeat had occurred in an instant. He didn't even see Han Feng's movements clearly. Han Feng had Qin Zang in his hand.
"What do you want to do?!" The mighty warriors of Celestial Fiend Alliance stepped forward. A terrifying murderous aura swept out towards Han Feng.
"If you take another step, I will take his life." Han Feng said coldly, causing the people of Celestial Fiend Alliance to freeze. They couldn't help but stop in their tracks.
Even though their cultivation base was higher than Qin Zang's, they knew very well. Among the people present, Qin Zang had the highest status. The Qin family had a very high position in the Celestial Fiend Alliance. Besides, this Qin Zang did not only have the surname Qin.
"All of you, retreat. Or else, I will kill him." Han Feng shouted again. Those experts of Celestial Fiend Alliance had ugly expressions on their faces, but they had no choice but to follow Han Feng's orders and slowly retreat.
"The young master is indeed powerful!" Lord of Zhaotian and the others laughed in their hearts. This Qin Zang should have a very high status, but they didn't know much about the Celestial Fiend Alliance. They had no idea what the structure of the Celestial Fiend Alliance was.
"Let go of young master Qin Zang. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences." Chu Lian said coldly to Han Feng. If the higher ups knew that Qin Zang had suffered such humiliation, they would surely make him suffer a fate worse than death.
"It seems like you don't really understand the situation." Han Feng sneered and looked at Qin Zang, "You people from the Celestial Fiend Alliance dare to threaten me?"
"If you have the ability, then kill me. A man can be killed but not humiliated." Qin Zang's eyes revealed a ferocious look. Even though Han Feng's Blood Devil Halberd could take his life at any time. This made Han Feng think highly of Qin Zang.
"It's very easy for you to die, but what about it? It depends on my mood." Han Feng smiled faintly and said to the Martial Lord of Celestial Fiend Alliance. " If you want to save his life, you can leave on your own. I will naturally return him to you. On the contrary... What you will get will be a corpse. "
"We will naturally retreat!" Chu Lian said without hesitation, "If you dare to harm Young Master Qin Zang, none of you here will be able to live."
"If you continue to speak to me in such a tone, I promise you that I will kill him." Han Feng's eyes were filled with monstrous devil intent, as if he was a terrifying devil emperor. It made everyone's heart tremble. If they offended Han Feng, they might really kill Qin Zang.
This was not something they could bear.
"We will leave immediately. Let Young Master Qin Zang go. How about this... Is it enough?" Chu Lian said coldly. At this moment, he was trying his best to suppress his anger. If it wasn't for the fact that he was worried about Qin Zang's name, he would have torn Han Feng into pieces a long time ago.
"Not enough, of course not." Han Feng smiled, causing Chu Lian's expression to freeze, "What else do you want?"
"I came here to destroy the Marquis's Mansion. I didn't want to stay here for too long. I hope that the people of the aristocratic families can stay away from this place. Otherwise... My life is threatened, and I might not be able to control myself. I made a mistake and killed your young master Qin Zang." Han Feng smiled calmly, but it seemed like everyone's breathing had stopped in an instant. The void was silent, as if they had misheard him.
Not only did Han Feng ask the experts of Celestial Fiend Alliance to leave, he also asked the experts of the families to leave. However, would the people of the families listen to Han Feng?
Without a doubt, if the experts of the families left, they would lose all their face. They had mobilized a large force to rush here from the Royal City, but they couldn't stop Han Feng from destroying the Marquis's Mansion. Instead, they would be forced to leave under Han Feng's coercion. This was a matter of face for the aristocratic families. It would definitely be a huge loss to them. Furthermore, Yang Hua was also in charge of this group of experts. A High Rank Martial Lord was forced to leave under the threat of a Genuine Martial Stage junior. If this news was spread out, it would definitely cause people to laugh their heads off.
But what if he didn't leave?
In order to protect Qin Zang, the people of Celestial Fiend Alliance couldn't avoid inviting the people of the aristocratic families to leave. At this moment, conflict was unavoidable.
Yang Hua's eyes sparkled. He secretly cursed Qin Zang for being a useless person. He was known as a god 's favored figure, but Han Feng had used him as a bargaining chip to go against them. This was detestable.
"Brother Yang Hua." Chu Lian looked at Yang Hua and revealed a smile, "You have seen the current situation as well. Young Master Qin Zang is very important to Celestial Fiend Alliance. I hope that Brother Yang Hua can make some concessions to avoid making things difficult for me."
"Brother Chu Lian is making things difficult for me." Yang Hua smiled bitterly, "The status of Nine Great Aristocratic Families in State of Zhao is very high. If we make concessions today... From now on, who asked them to take the Nine Great Aristocratic Families seriously? Besides, I have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders. If I let Han Feng go just like that... It's hard for me to explain."
Yang Hua's meaning was obvious. Qin Zang had been captured. In fact, it was just a grudge between Han Feng and the Celestial Fiend Alliance. It had nothing to do with the aristocratic families. If the aristocratic families backed down because of this, in many people's point of view, they weren't afraid of Han Feng. They were afraid of the Celestial Fiend Alliance. This was obviously something Yang Hua didn't want to see.
Chu Lian's eyes revealed a sharp glint. The smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by an even colder expression. If Yang Hua refused to cooperate with him, things would become complicated.
The two of them were communicating via divine sense. No one knew what they were talking about, but judging from Yang Hua's expression, they could roughly guess that it wasn't going well.
"How is it? Have the two of you reached an agreement?" Han Feng said with a smile. A brilliant divine light flashed across the Blood Devil Halberd. The people of Celestial Fiend Alliance were so shocked that they broke out in cold sweat. They were afraid that Han Feng would make a mistake. In that case, they wouldn't be able to protect young master Qin Zang.
"Don't worry. Let me discuss this with Brother Yang Hua." Chu Lian said coldly, then turned to Yang Hua and said, "If brother Yang Hua insists on making a move on little brother Han Feng, the Celestial Fiend Alliance won't stand idly by."
There was no sound transmission for this sentence. Everyone present heard it clearly. Chu Lian had already laid out his cards. If the people of the aristocratic families wanted to stay and participate in the battle, the Celestial Fiend Alliance wouldn't just sit back and watch.
Even if the Celestial Fiend Alliance hated Han Feng to the core, they couldn't just watch the people of the aristocratic families harm him. They could almost imagine that if there was a crisis approaching... This was something they didn't want to see.
"It seems like the Celestial Fiend Alliance is getting more and more impudent. Under the heavens of the State of Zhao... It still doesn't belong to the Celestial Fiend Alliance." Yang Hua's expression changed. For the sake of Qin Zang, Chu Lian had almost touched the bottom line of the rules. It seemed like Qin Zang's status was much higher than he had imagined.
Chu Lian naturally understood what Yang Hua meant, but he had no other choice. For some things, he could only choose the direction that was most beneficial to himself. Furthermore, as long as Qin Zang didn't die, this matter wouldn't have too many problems.
"If Brother Yang Hua wants to use the power of the Nine Great Aristocratic Families to oppress the Celestial Fiend Alliance, this is absolutely wrong. I think Brother Yang Hua will regret it." Chu Lian's eyes calmed down and he said slowly, "Brother Yang and I know who ordered the Celestial Fiend Alliance to carry out this assassination mission. However, due to the rules of the trade, the higher-ups didn't pursue the matter, but if they really wanted to make a fuss about it... The Hongtian Academy isn't the only one involved. "
Yang Hua's expression slightly trembled. He said coldly, "Are you threatening me?"
" I dare not say that I'm threatening you. However, with the strength of the Celestial Fiend Alliance... There is no problem in unifying the dark and the Dao. " Chu Lian's eyes suddenly shone with a sharp light, causing Yang Hua to instantly understand. Perhaps it wasn't because of Han Feng's words that they were being aggressive, but because they wanted to divide the big piece of cake in State of Zhao.
The Celestial Fiend Alliance had an unfathomable power behind them. This was no longer a secret, but for a long time, the Celestial Fiend Alliance had always been under the rule of the three lower families. But now, it seemed like they were unwilling to continue like this.
"There's a rumor that a great war is about to break out, and the twenty-one Force of Sovereign Level in Six Directions City can no longer sit still. They are ready to make a move. It seems like the Celestial Fiend Alliance is going to make a move as well." Yang Hua thought to himself. Perhaps, the Celestial Fiend Alliance wouldn't lose to the Divine Seal Palace in terms of resources. Otherwise, the Divine Seal Palace wouldn't allow the Celestial Fiend Alliance to take root in front of their eyes.
"After killing Han Feng, we can continue discussing these matters." Yang Hua would not let the tiger return to the mountain because of this. Han Feng's potential was too terrifying. He would definitely be able to step into the Elemental Martial Stage in the future. He was a huge threat. As for the Celestial Fiend Alliance, there were still rules that couldn't be easily broken.
"It seems like Brother Yang doesn't intend to give in?" Chu Lian's smile turned cold. This Yang Hua really didn't know how to appreciate favors. Just because he was a noble family, he was able to go against the Celestial Fiend Alliance?
Looking at the two opposing High Rank Martial Lords, everyone's eyes slightly froze. They secretly thought that Han Feng's means were truly brilliant. He had allowed the aristocratic families to fight against the Celestial Fiend Alliance, but it seemed like nothing had happened to him.
At this point, it seemed like neither the Celestial Fiend Alliance nor Yang Hua were willing to give in. Apart from Qin Zang, there were also other benefits involved.
The Nine Great Aristocratic Families had been standing in the State of Zhao for many years, and their foundation was very deep. However, the Celestial Fiend Alliance was an unfathomable force, and they could send a steady stream of experts into the State of Zhao to fight for the division of power in the underworld.
"If you want me to give in, you alone are not enough?" Yang Hua said in an indifferent tone. Then, he saw a sword beam slashing down from the void. It carried an aura that could destroy the heavens and earth, and it was incomparably violent, cutting everything in its path.
Yang Hua's eyes trembled slightly. He had already guessed the identity of this person just by looking at this deadly sword energy. He was the guardian of Hongtian Academy, the Life-taking Sword Merchant, and Liang Zisheng.
"This damned Iron Sword Marquis. Why didn't he tell me? Liang Zisheng is here as well!" Yang Hua cursed in his heart. After that, a figure walked over from the void. It was an incomparably sharp sword intent, and it seemed as if a single step had traversed an endless space. He landed next to Han Feng and looked at the experts from the various families with a smile on his face.
"If I were here, would I be able to make you retreat?"
