"Enough! Chen Jie, there's no need for us masters to fight until we're both exhausted. Our future achievements will be even greater. Let's stop here for today! Our Tianyi Sect promises not to appear within the borders of Daxia again!"
After fighting for a while, the Dragon King grew anxious.
Seeing his forces dwindling, he realized that if this continued, none of his men would survive except possibly himself!
He no longer wanted to continue the costly battle with Chen Jie.
"Stop? Are you dreaming? I laid this trap for you today precisely to eliminate the Tianyi Sect permanently! Now you want to leave? Impossible!"
Chen Jie said coldly.
"You... do you think even if they win, they would band together to help you fight me? For masters like us, these ordinary people are no longer of any use! If we continue to fight, it will only result in mutual destruction!"
The Dragon King exclaimed in shock and anger.
His voice was loud, and many could hear him.
Little Mustache and the others were profoundly shaken.
They had previously believed that Chen Jie's backing forces were the true threat.
Now, it seemed that was not the case.
Chen Jie's real reliance was his own strength.
In all the years they had followed the Dragon King, they had never encountered anyone whose strength was comparable to his.
"You're mistaken. We won't be mutually destroyed. I was just warming up!"
Chen Jie sneered, no longer suppressing his strength. His power immediately rose another level.
The Dragon King, unable to control himself, was pushed back step by step.
He was both shocked and enraged.
Chen Jie hadn't even used his true strength just now? What kind of monster was he?
He knew that even the White Feather War God was only his equal.
The thought that there was a master like the White Feather War God within Daxia was almost unbearable for him.
"I am the Dragon King, possessing inexhaustible Dragon King Power! I can last a year fighting you!"
"Dragon King Power!"
The Dragon King roared, his blood surging, and his martial prowess reached a new peak.
"Dragon King, quickly kill him and save us!" Little Mustache and the others yelled urgently.
"Don't waste any more time with him!"
"We can't hold on much longer!"
The Dragon King was growing desperate.
In truth, he was already panicking internally.
His internal energy was indeed inexhaustible, but what angered him was that Chen Jie hadn't exerted his full strength earlier. Now that Chen Jie was going all out, even his inexhaustible internal energy was struggling to cope.
For this reason, he had to resort to secret techniques to temporarily boost his strength.
To enable him to confront Chen Jie head-on.
However, his current state was not inexhaustible; he wouldn't last an hour!
"What must I do for you to cease hostilities?" the Dragon King whispered, while skillfully maneuvering Chen Jie towards a corner.
He couldn't afford for his subordinates to know he was at a disadvantage.
Otherwise, they might abandon resistance on the spot.
"You can fight me for a year? That's exactly what I want! I'll use you as my whetstone!"
Chen Jie said calmly.
His martial arts realm, which had been stagnant for a long time, was showing signs of breaking through with the exchange of blows with the Dragon King.
This filled him with joy.
"Dragon King! Quickly save us! We can't hold on!"
Little Mustache shouted again.
The Dragon King gritted his teeth, realizing the situation was dire. He said, "Alright, don't rush. I'll save you soon. Just hold on for another half an hour!"
"Half an hour? How is that possible?"
Little Mustache cried out in despair.
Defeat spread like a mountain collapsing. Once a disadvantage appeared, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
Hearing "half an hour," everyone's hearts were in utter chaos.
"Good brothers, wait for me to save you!"
The Dragon King roared, then suddenly turned and fled.
His subordinates stared, dumbfounded.
Why was the Dragon King running?
He wasn't suppressed by the formation.
Besides, were there other Tianyi Sect masters lurking nearby?
But that didn't make sense!
If there were other masters nearby, they would have already intervened; they wouldn't have waited until now.
Panic spread through their ranks.
Chen Jie said to Lü Changbu and the others, "The Dragon King is fleeing. I'll pursue him. You all, eliminate these people!"
"Yes!"
At this point, Lü Changbu and the others were completely convinced by Chen Jie.
His strength was far beyond anything they could hope to reach.
Little Mustache and his men also heard Chen Jie's voice.
Their faces were filled with despair.
The Dragon King had run away!
He had abandoned his brothers!
What were they to do now?
"Kill!"
Lü Changbu, recovering his senses, his expression greatly changed, immediately charged towards Little Mustache for the final cleanup.
As Chen Jie left, the trapping formation within the villa began to weaken.
Some people were surprised to find they could now leave the villa.
They shouted, "The Dragon King has run! We're running too!"
Immediately, everyone, dragging their heavily wounded bodies, fled.
"Trying to escape? Did you ask me first?" Ji Tong sneered.
He wouldn't let anyone go today.
Because if news of his betrayal got out, his family would be in danger.
He quickly pursued them.
At this moment, the fleeing Tianyi Sect members had not gone far when they ran headlong into an assault team.
These individuals opened fire, unleashing a barrage that instantly killed several of them.
This assault team had been arranged by Tong Hao.
Although the Dragon Group members couldn't intervene directly, they could deploy secular forces to assist Chen Jie in clearing out the remnants.
At this moment, they played a crucial role.
"Die!"
Lin Mengjiao, who was engaged in combat with two Xiantian masters, let out a fierce cry and channeled all her spiritual energy into her attack.
Immediately, one of them had his throat slit.
Numerous masters from the Martial Arts Association also swarmed in.
Under the pincer attack of the many experts, the two ultimately failed to escape and perished.
"All Tianyi Sect masters have been eliminated. You, clear out the remaining pawns. I'm going to assist my master in pursuing the Dragon King!"
Lin Mengjiao said, then immediately pursued in the direction Chen Jie had left.
Lü Changbu and the others looked at Lin Mengjiao's departing figure with respect.
They were not even a match for Lin Mengjiao.
And Lin Mengjiao was merely Chen Jie's disciple.
This demonstrated just how heaven-defying Chen Jie's strength was.
"What? The Tianyi Sect was routed, their masters all lost, and only the Dragon King escaped?"
At the Dragon Group branch, Tong Hao's eyes widened in disbelief as he listened to He Wenwu's report.
He Wenwu swallowed and said, "Chen Jie has done us a great favor this time!"
"Good, good! Daxia is blessed by heaven!"
Tong Hao repeated "good" several times and quickly released the news.
He wanted to use this news to deter Yan Country.
Then, he said to He Wenwu, "Immediately invite Chen Jie here. I have important matters to discuss with Chen Jie!"
Meanwhile, Chen Jie had already pursued the Dragon King for dozens of miles.
No matter how fast the Dragon King fled, Chen Jie could catch up.
A sense of despair gradually enveloped his heart.
For the first time in his life, he had encountered such a predicament.
"Enough!"
The Dragon King roared and stopped.
