Chapter 142 - Chapter 142 Let's Have a Showdown

"Who exactly are you all!?"

A squad of Huang Family guards rushed over, led by the guard captain they had met before at the island entrance.

At this moment, he looked at Ning Fa and the others with a face full of shock and anger.

He now knew that their Fifth Elder had rebelled.

As he spoke, a pair of golden-yellow giant hammers flew out from in front of him, fiercely smashing towards Ning Fa and his group.

"Hold them! Don't let them escape!"

The man shouted.

His seven subordinates also unleashed their magic tools, attacking Ning Fa and the others without hesitation.

"Let's finish this quickly!"

Ning Fa said solemnly.

Although there were only three of them, the opposite side only had two cultivators at the Late Qi Condensation stage.

Ning Fa's figure suddenly blurred, then he mysteriously disappeared.

The golden brush in front of Ning Yuwen continued to swing, rewriting ancient characters one by one.

At the same time, he chanted, his hands forming hand seals continuously.

Sharp, light-blue water arrows appeared in the air and shot out abruptly.

Green light flashed on the ground, and green vines quietly emerged, winding towards the opponents with great spirituality.

Ning Yunhui also sneered, wielding his pair of black crutches and charging towards the opposing cultivators.

In just a few dozen breaths.

Ning Fa was now holding the guard captain, a cultivator at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation, by the neck, lifting him into the air.

The man's face was filled with defeat and despair.

Ning Fa's right hand flashed with silver light, and he struck the man with a restriction before casually tossing him aside.

The other Huang Family guards had all fallen to the ground, their bodies covered in wounds.

Under Ning Fa's prior instructions, their lives had been spared.

At the same time, a black flying boat rapidly flew through the air.

Except for those Ning Fa had previously sent to attack Huang Island, all other Blazing Wind Hall members had returned.

These members looked at the messy scene with shock.

Their gazes towards Ning Fa immediately became filled with awe.

Just then, dust flew up in the distance.

A large group of people, riding on various colored escape lights, rushed over.

Leading them was the Huang Family Patriarch, Huang Shuheng, his face a mask of shock and anger, along with Shi Shaoyang, Meng Ruoqi, and other outsiders.

The two groups met head-on.

Meng Ruoqi saw Ning Fa leading the group.

She lightly covered her cherry lips, surprise flashing in her starry eyes.

She glanced left and right, a hint of thoughtfulness appearing in her eyes.

Huang Shuheng stepped forward, his face filled with shock and anger. "You are… people from the Ning Family!? Why are you attacking our Huang Family!? Although our Huang Family is small, we will never allow you to bully us like this!"

The other Huang Family members were also filled with righteous indignation, drawing their magic tools and preparing to unleash them.

However, some of the older members had faces full of worry and regret.

As Huang Shuheng spoke, he carefully scanned the surroundings with his divine sense.

Although he confirmed that only these Ning Family cultivators were present, his heart sank.

At this moment, he finally understood that he had fallen for the "lure the tiger away from its mountain" strategy.

He had already sent a message for the guards who had gone out to return immediately, but they wouldn't arrive right away.

Although there were over forty Huang Family cultivators present, only eight were at the Late Qi Condensation stage.

On Ning Fa's side, there were seven cultivators at the Late Qi Condensation stage, and the others were all at the Mid Qi Condensation stage.

Especially Ning Fa and his group, their killing intent was heavy, clearly indicating they were seasoned fighters.

This gave Huang Shuheng no sense of security.

At the same time, he was also shocked by the Ning Family's swift action, realizing he had underestimated them and feeling a hint of regret for his previous decisions.

However, seeing Shi Shaoyang and the others beside him, his heart settled a bit.

Ning Fa did not answer Huang Shuheng, but instead looked at Meng Ruoqi.

He blinked and smiled, "I didn't expect to see Miss Meng again here."

Meng Ruoqi gave an awkward smile in response.

After all, she was still standing with the Huang Family at this moment and had requests of them.

Shi Shaoyang, whose expression had been calm, keenly sensed this. His eyes immediately narrowed, and the way he looked at Ning Fa changed.

Ning Fa then looked at Huang Shuheng and said leisurely, "Patriarch Huang, there's no need to be angry. Our Ning Family has no intention of resorting to force against your esteemed family. We are merely pursuing a family traitor on this trip."

"For some unknown reason, this person fled here and used a treasure of immense power to break through your family's defensive restrictions, escaping onto the island."

"We kindly ask for your family's cooperation in allowing us to pursue them. This is also for your family's own good."

After hearing this, the people of the Huang Family felt like spitting blood.

Even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe Ning Fa's excuse.

Especially since the Huang Family's guards were still lying in front of the Ning Family members.

Huang Shuheng was furious and said, "Do you take us for fools!? It's because our Huang Family reduced the Blood Fang Rice quota that your Ning Family is deliberately retaliating! If you bully the weak like this, my Huang Family won't sell you a single grain of Blood Fang Rice in the future!"

Ning Fa shrugged indifferently and said calmly, "Are you going to let us pass or not?"

Meng Ruoqi's eyes flashed with a strange light.

In her impression, Ning Fa was gentle and refined, and she hadn't expected him to have such an overbearing and forceful side.

Huang Shuheng couldn't help but look at Shi Shaoyang for help.

After all, he had spent a lot of Spirit Stones on protection fees, and he couldn't let it be in vain.

Facing the Ning Family members who were like wolves and tigers, he truly felt uncertain.

At this moment, Shi Shaoyang stepped forward. He smiled and said unhurriedly, "I am Shi Shaoyang of Chang Kong Island. May I ask your name, honored sir?"

Ning Fa looked at him, with no intention of introducing himself, and said lazily, "Chang Kong Alliance's Cloud Lotus Sword, I've naturally heard of it."

Although Ning Fa said his name was well-known, the perfunctory tone in his words suggested otherwise.

Then, a cold glint flashed in Ning Fa's eyes, and he said calmly, "But this is our Ning Family's business, and it has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to interfere rashly."

Seeing Ning Fa, who was only at the Late Qi Condensation stage, being so impolite to Shi Shaoyang, who had recently become famous throughout Thousand Wave Lake, everyone's expressions varied.

A flash of anger appeared in Shi Shaoyang's eyes, and his words became impolite as well, "Who says it has nothing to do with our Chang Kong Alliance! The Huang Family is an ally of our Chang Kong Alliance. Your Ning Family's unauthorized invasion is equivalent to an attack on our Chang Kong Alliance, so I, Shi Shaoyang, naturally cannot stand by and do nothing!"

Seeing Shi Shaoyang speak so righteously, Huang Shuheng felt that the Spirit Stones were well spent, and the Huang Family members regained their surging morale.

Ning Fa smiled and said lightly, "In the end, in the cultivation world, whoever has the bigger fist makes the rules. Are you interested in having a go?"

Shi Shaoyang snorted coldly, "That's exactly what I intend. It's been a long time since anyone dared to be so rude to me. I really want to see how capable you are!"

Ning Fa turned and said something, and then the Ning Family members retreated.

Shi Shaoyang also said to Huang Shuheng, "Patriarch Huang, you should also step aside and let me fight this person."

Huang Shuheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was the best outcome.

The situation had changed from a group battle to a one-on-one duel, so his side would not suffer any casualties.

He believed that after the Ning Family person was defeated by Shi Shaoyang, he would not be able to continue pressing them and would have to leave in disgrace.

At the same time, he marveled at his luck. If Shi Shaoyang hadn't been here, they might have really succeeded in beheading him this time.

Meng Ruoqi looked at the two, her eyes filled with wonder, and then slowly retreated with the young man in black and the old man.
