Battle Aftermath Turmoil

Patriarch Fenn released a powerful aura. Old Venom was startled, "You were hiding your strength?"

"You realized too late!" Patriarch Fenn said angrily, then struck with his other hand, crippling Old Venom's hand.

"Ah, you!" Old Venom was shocked and quickly retreated.

Patriarch Fenn's aura subsided, and the gas around decreased. Seeing Old Venom badly wounded, the Ninefold Palace Lord said, "I'll go catch him. See you at the Fenn Family."

"Mm," Patriarch Fenn replied, then slowly walked out of the purple gas.

Just as he stabilized himself and tried to recover, a figure appeared behind him. Patriarch Fenn was shocked, tried to release his aura again, but it was too late—the figure struck and wounded him.

The punch was powerful and accompanied by a beast shadow.

At this moment, someone in the Fenn Family saw the beast shadow and exclaimed, "Who are you?"

Yang Han ignored them, struck again, and Patriarch Fenn's body nearly fell apart, blood coming from his mouth.

This was Yang Han's second punch. He couldn't throw another, so he used his remaining strength to seal Patriarch Fenn.

Patriarch Fenn didn't expect to be ambushed, stared at Yang Han in shock.

"Don't look at me like that," Yang Han said, then picked him up and disappeared from the ruined planet.

Yang Han brought Patriarch Fenn to a place where no one would pass by, then let him speak.

Patriarch Fenn immediately asked, "Who are you? What's your connection to Yang Han?" He hadn't expected Yang Han's forces to move so quickly, and to strike while he was fighting Old Venom.

Yang Han didn't know that in Patriarch Fenn's alliance, they all thought Yang Han had powerful backing, and the beast-transforming figure was one of them.

"You don't need to know. Just tell me how to solve the side effects of the Tyrant Seal Art," Yang Han said with a smile.

"I don't know," Patriarch Fenn said decisively.

"You don't know? Do you think I'm stupid?" Yang Han sneered, then produced a pill—Mind-Veil Pill.

Patriarch Fenn immediately recognized it, exclaimed, "You—"

"Dream on if you think you'll kill me!" Patriarch Fenn snorted.

"You call this a private settlement?" Patriarch Fenn said angrily.

"Then what do you want?" Old Venom replied, not backing down.

The Ninefold Palace Lord watched their argument, knowing it would lead nowhere. After calculating in his mind, he said, "Liu, you did poison him, so that's your fault. But tell us, why are you so desperate for that man? If it's a major matter, Patriarch Fenn might consider your reasons."

Patriarch Fenn understood what the Ninefold Palace Lord meant, and Old Venom quickly caught on too. But he would never reveal the real reason, so he said, "He hurt my disciple's people at Sevenmile Peak. I'm just stepping in for them."

"Liu, that's hard to believe. With your status, you wouldn't stir up trouble with the Fenn Family just because your disciple's friends were injured," the Ninefold Palace Lord said with a cold smile.

Old Venom laughed. "Why not? My disciple's friends fought with the Fenn Family and three died. They had nothing to do with me, but my disciple begged me, so as a master I had to help."

"Bullshit," Patriarch Fenn and the Ninefold Palace Lord cursed inwardly.

"Liu, if you won't tell the truth, I really can't help you," the Ninefold Palace Lord said coldly.

"I've already told you. What more do you want? Besides, we've all been played this time," Old Venom said.

"What do you mean?" the Ninefold Palace Lord asked curiously.

Old Venom explained how he caught the wrong person. Patriarch Fenn should have believed him, but instead snorted coldly, "Old Venom, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean?" Old Venom asked, seeing their skeptical expressions.

"Don't think I don't know. Your Sevenmile Peak people already caught one, but it was a fake. This time you caught the real one. If you're going to fool us, at least find a better excuse," Patriarch Fenn snorted coldly.

"I'm telling you the truth." Old Venom hadn't expected them to know about the prisoner, so explaining became difficult.

"Looks like you don't want a private settlement!" Patriarch Fenn said angrily.

"Don't think I'm afraid of you!" Old Venom snorted coldly, knowing nothing he said would help.

"Fine! Zi, watch closely. Don't say I'm bullying him," Patriarch Fenn said angrily.

With that, the two began fighting fiercely. The Ninefold Palace Lord frowned as he watched; their battle was so intense that a single punch could destroy a mountain.

The planet was left with many new craters. The Ninefold Palace Lord could only stand in the void and watch as the two battled.

Boom, boom—the planet was nearly shattered. After all, it was a deserted, small planet.

As the Ninefold Palace Lord pondered whether to intervene, boom—the planet shattered. Both appeared beside him, but they were in bad shape, covered in marks.

"Fenn, are you really going to fight me to the death?" Old Venom said angrily.

"Humph! Not unless you apologize and explain why you caught that man," Patriarch Fenn said angrily.

"Impossible! The reasons are what I said. If you don't believe me, that's your problem," Old Venom retorted.

"Liu, you should just say it. As for apologizing, we can deal with that later. Otherwise, I'll have to stand with Fenn," the Ninefold Palace Lord said.

"Zi, I've said all I can. Believe it or not, if you want to team up, I'll fight you both," Old Venom snorted coldly.

Seeing Old Venom like this, the Ninefold Palace Lord finally couldn't help but act. "Then don't blame me. Fenn, let's go together!"

"Mm," Patriarch Fenn replied.

The two attacked Old Venom. Old Venom snorted, "Zi, you're really good at meddling."

"If you'd just tell us, none of this would happen. Why so stubborn?" the Ninefold Palace Lord replied.

"Impossible! Don't think I'll be afraid just because you two are teaming up." Old Venom was struggling, but his words remained strong.

Just as Patriarch Fenn thought Old Venom would soon collapse, purple gas spread around them.

"Damn it, here you go again." Seeing the gas, both the Ninefold Palace Lord and Patriarch Fenn knew it was Old Venom's specialty. They quickly blocked spiritual energy from entering, but Old Venom could move freely inside.

"Fenn, you forced me. I won't hold back today." Old Venom knew he'd offended two big powers, so he took this chance to flash to Patriarch Fenn's side.

Patriarch Fenn was shocked. He blocked a fierce attack with his left arm, but his momentum dropped, and the poison lowered his strength.

"Liu, if you keep offending the two of us, you'll have a bad end. You'd better stop." Seeing Patriarch Fenn wounded, the Ninefold Palace Lord worried he'd be next.

"With such a good chance, if I don't deal with you two, I'll only cause myself trouble." Old Venom sneered.

At this moment, the Ninefold Palace Lord regretted coming along; at least one person could have kept their distance from Old Venom and acted randomly.
