Chapter 759: Breakthrough!

“Damn it! How did this guy end up here?”
After destroying the Mu Family’s branch temple, Xueyi was drawn over by that sword glow. Upon seeing the scene, his brows furrowed so tightly it seemed water might drip out.
The Emperor!
This man was one of the most feared figures in the Central Plains martial world…
The Emperor’s presence and strength made it impossible for anyone to resist—he had held such a high position for so long, and his Thirteen Deathly Swords were legendary, each one terrifying.
Despite being surrounded by countless Lingxiao Palace disciples, no one dared draw their swords against the Emperor.
“Silver Fox, let’s go.”
“No need to bother.”
Though Silver Fox was temporarily safe under the Emperor’s protection, his expression was grim. “Emperor, this is a matter between the Mu Family and Lingxiao Palace. Please stay out of it.” He didn’t want this incident involving the Mu Family’s branch temple to be linked to the Emperor’s name or presence.
The Emperor seemed to understand Silver Fox’s thoughts. With a slight smile, he wasn’t angry. “Don’t tell me what to do. As long as you leave Yangzhou City, I’ll leave immediately and never interfere again. But if you stay, I won’t let them hurt you easily.”
“Even if it means going against Lingxiao Palace?” Silver Fox asked.
The Emperor nodded calmly. “Even if it means going against Lingxiao Palace.”
Silver Fox glanced around at the Lingxiao Palace troops, who seemed to sense something and began retreating…
Even the deputy head of Longmen didn’t dare provoke the Emperor.
It was a supreme form of swordsmanship, combined with an extreme killing intent. Not even he dared confront its sharpness head-on.
With a cold snort, Silver Fox dashed without hesitation toward the Mu Family disciples who were still resisting…
The Emperor followed closely behind.
One in front, one behind! Wherever they passed, the Lingxiao Palace members retreated—not only because of the Emperor’s words, but also because Silver Fox himself was an astonishing combat machine. Unless the deputy head of Longmen or Longmen’s experts stepped in, no one else could stop him.
But…
When the two reached a group of Mu Family experts, Silver Fox couldn’t help but feel an urge to kill!
Glancing at the corpses of the Mu Family disciples still lying on the street and the Lingxiao Palace disciples trapped in the siege, he roared and charged into the crowd from behind.
Bang! Bang!
Like a dragon, he rushed into the crowd, using both hands. More than a dozen Lingxiao Palace experts were flung aside before they could react…
The Lingxiao Palace disciples still didn’t realize what was happening. Seeing Silver Fox appear, they were shocked at first, then many drew their swords and charged!
“Kill him!”
Hiss…

The magnificent sword energy was like a swiftly passing moon disc. It was only then that a tardy warning reached the ears of the Lingxiao Palace disciples: “Quickly get out of the way… It’s the Emperor!”
It was too late.
As the sword energy struck, the Lingxiao Palace disciples in the streets were as if pierced by countless swords, with dozens of them killed in an instant…
“How is he…?” The group of experts from the Mu family were inexplicably excited. Seeing Silver Fox and the “Emperor” arrive one after another, their eyes lit up!
“Don’t worry about that. Charge out first.” Silver Fox said briefly before rushing to the front to buy time for the group to catch their breath and use various pills.
After that…
With the help of this divine protector beyond comparison, the group easily carved a bloody path through, quickly disappearing under the stunned and helpless gazes of countless Lingxiao Palace disciples.
Crack…
Qin Qing’s fists turned blue from clenching, and the bricks and tiles beneath his feet were crushed, yet no order to pursue was given from start to finish!
The Emperor!
The Lingxiao Palace couldn’t afford to provoke such a person.
Happiness, after all, came with weaknesses due to ties and constraints;
but the Emperor always acted alone, untouched by anyone or anything, and his strength far surpassed that of the martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Fighting against him was not a wise decision.
But how could Qin Qing accept watching Silver Fox and the others fly away like that?
The deputy head of Longmen glanced at Qin Qing’s expression:
“The Emperor said that after leaving Yangzhou, he would part ways with Silver Fox and the people from the Mu family. I’ve already sent my men to take shortcuts outside the city to intercept them. We still have a chance…”
“We must capture Silver Fox and Xiao Bei!” Finally, a glimmer appeared in Qin Qing’s eyes. He spoke slowly, gritting his teeth, before turning to Hao Tian and Li Qing:
“You two go too.”
The two exchanged a glance, glanced at the numerous bewildered Lingxiao Palace disciples in the streets, sighed inwardly, and quickly joined the crowd in the streets.
…
With the destruction of the sub-temples in Yangzhou and the remnants of the Mu family breaking through, the battle in Yangzhou finally came to an end, and the crowds gradually dispersed…
Once the Lingxiao Palace members left, the people from various taverns and factions in Yangzhou finally showed up.
This battle was undoubtedly the most brutal and unprecedented one in the history of the Central Plains martial arts world!
The Lingxiao Palace not only brought in all its resources from the main temple but also allied with the people from Yipin Hall, along with a group of unidentified experts! The battle lasted from night to day.
The most terrifying part was…
It was said that over 20,000 people were killed in this battle:
Nearly 2,000 of Yipin Hall’s men were completely wiped out.

The Lingxiao Palace claimed nearly 20,000 lives; less than 400 people from the Mu Family managed to escape, with over 3,000 of their elite fighters killed… The several martial temples in Yangzhou City are still under martial law to this day! The Lingxiao Palace tightly guards these temples, allowing only its own people to exit… Those from the Mu Family either stay inside or simply log off; even some unimportant players dare not leave due to the tense situation. All of this… made many gang forces in Yangzhou City gradually realize that the battle there has not yet ended. It seems the Lingxiao Palace intends to keep these elite members of the Mu Family in Yangzhou forever, or rather, to destroy them completely!! “This woman is quite ruthless!” People leaving the restaurant still didn’t dare to discuss this great battle easily, as Lingxiao Palace members could still be seen everywhere on the streets—only the restaurant was relatively safe. “I think there’s more fighting to come…” “The Mu Family lost at least 3,000 elite fighters this time! That’s nearly one-third of their mid-level elite forces weakened. With Happy’s temper, he surely won’t tolerate this.” “Nonsense!” “Along the southern coast, Happy has already taken action! The Lingxiao Palace has lost even more people than Yangzhou City—over 20 of their branches have been destroyed.” “What…?” “So, how’s the situation there now?” Many who remained in Yangzhou were unaware of the outside world’s news and gathered together upon hearing this. “How?” That well-informed martial artist sneered: “Now the whole Jiangnan region is issuing a manhunt for Lingxiao Palace members. If they want to survive, they must leave their gangs…” “I heard Happy isn’t far from Yangzhou anymore. By then, the war will surely spread back to Yangzhou. Hey, those who want to watch the show better hurry up and reserve seats at the restaurants near the Lingxiao Palace’s main headquarters.” The sound of thunderous footsteps descending the stairs!
