805: Chapter 794: Gu Insects Deployed 805: Chapter 794: Gu Insects Deployed “Everyone listen well, if Ning Fan walks out of here today, it means the end of the Yunteng Family!”
Within the great hall of the Yunteng Family, Teng Zhuhai shouted these words, his voice stirring waves of outrage.
All members of the Yunteng Family widened their eyes and then glared angrily at Ning Fan.
At Ning Fan’s feet lay many of their clansmen, all with severed tendons—either in their hands or legs—courtesy of Ning Fan’s soft sword.
Such ruthless techniques made even onlookers shudder.
Ning Fan was just one man, but he had brought the Yunteng Family to rivers of blood.
Overwhelming pressure hung over everyone like a storm cloud.
Ning Fan’s presence was like a suffocating shadow, and now Teng Zhuhai’s words elevated their fear to another level.
If Ning Fan walked out of the Yunteng Family today, it would mean their extermination.
This wasn’t a joke, and Teng Zhuhai’s expression made it clear he wasn’t joking.
One by one, Yunteng Family members reacted to Teng Zhuhai’s words as if injected with adrenaline, their eyes bloodshot, each looking like a vengeful ghost ready to claim Ning Fan’s life.
“Hmm?” Ning Fan squinted his eyes suddenly, noticing a subtle movement on the ground.
On the ground now almost entirely dyed red, something seemed to be squirming within the thick, sticky blood.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be numerous unremarkable Gu Insects.
They swam through the blood, cautiously approaching Ning Fan.
These Gu Insects were simultaneously feasting on the blood while also eyeing Ning Fan’s blood greedily.
Under the control of the Yunteng Family, the ground quickly became crawling with all kinds of Gu Insects.
Seeing this, Ning Fan let out a cold laugh and arrogantly shouted, “Bring out whatever you’ve got!
Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance.
If you think these insects alone can deal with me, you’re truly naive!”
“Ning Fan, you can talk all you want, but if you leave the Yunteng Family unscathed today, it will only happen over our dead bodies—every single one of us!”
Teng Zhuhai stepped forward, shouting back at Ning Fan with equal defiance, his presence exuding authority.
His “leading by example” immediately inspired those around him.
Hearing his words, the ordinary members of the Yunteng Family became wild with excitement.
At this point, even if Teng Zhuhai ordered them to charge to their deaths before Ning Fan, none would hesitate.
But as far as Ning Fan was concerned, the whole scene was laughable.
“Who’s the one twisting words now—me or you?”
With a mocking smile, Ning Fan retorted sarcastically.
Teng Zhuhai’s face darkened, visibly provoked, unsure how to respond to him.
As the Family Head of the Yunteng Family, Teng Zhuhai stood safely behind his clansmen.
He relied solely on verbal commands to incite fervor among them without personally stepping out to confront Ning Fan.
Just as Ning Fan had previously charged alone into the Shangguan Family, Teng Zhuhai wasn’t reckless.
He knew how terrifying Ning Fan’s cultivated Sword Radiance was; even he, despite having reached the peak of the Object-Manipulating Realm after years of cultivation, couldn’t match him, let alone these ordinary clansmen still in the True Qi Realm.
Sending them out in waves was merely feeding bodies to the slaughter.
Yet Teng Zhuhai had no other choice.
If they didn’t trade lives for a chance, the Yunteng Family would truly be doomed today.
This time, Ning Fan’s bold intrusion was clearly not for negotiation.
And Teng Zhuhai had never intended to reconcile with Ning Fan.
Their fates could only be settled in battle.
Until one side was utterly spent or one side surrendered, this fight would not end.
And surrender was out of the question for the Yunteng Family.
As the Family Head, Teng Zhuhai, in stark contrast to his daughter’s moderate and placating approach, was a staunch hawk.
Even with bleak prospects, they would not abandon the Yunteng Family’s resolute spirit!
Whether Teng Zhuhai’s actions stemmed from cold-blooded ruthlessness in pursuit of his goals or from desperation made no difference to Ning Fan.
He didn’t care.
Ning Fan had come here for one purpose only: to force them into submission—or to kill them!
“I’ll be waiting right here.
Who’s first?”
With a flick of his soft sword, the still-wet blood splattered onto the ground, adding an extra touch of blood-soaked brutality to the scene.
The crowd fixated on Ning Fan, uncertain and unwilling to act rashly, while the Gu Insects seized the opportunity.
They leapt into the air like a swarm of locusts, lunging at Ning Fan.
Glaring at the grotesque Gu Insects, Ning Fan felt an immediate wave of disgust.
With a powerful swipe of his long sword, Sword Radiance surged forth, True Qi rippling in waves.
In one sweeping motion, he tore apart the “black mist” in front of him, obliterating half of the Gu Insects.
This was only a single move, yet it caused everyone to inhale sharply in shock.
Especially Teng Zhuhai, who watched, cursing internally.
Ning Fan’s Sword Radiance was as terrifying as ever, possibly even more refined now.
He could only lament why Ning Fan’s talent was so absurd and why his cultivation speed outstripped theirs by unimaginable margins.
But Ning Fan couldn’t care less what Teng Zhuhai and the others were thinking.
Seeing their hesitation in advancing, he lost patience.
With no intention of playing games, he dashed forward wielding his soft sword.
“Stop him!”
“Quickly, stop him!”
“Ahhh!”
Amid shouts for battle, it was impossible to tell who was shouting.
Their voices intertwined with agonized screams.
Within mere breaths, Ning Fan had critically injured over a dozen more people.
Now, he stood directly before Teng Zhuhai.
At that moment, Teng Bei rushed out from the side, displaying absolute loyalty to his master.
Seeing Ning Fan so close to Teng Zhuhai, he dared not slack off, worried that even a second’s delay would lead to Ning Fan striking Teng Zhuhai down.
Noticing an incoming gust of Palm Wind, Ning Fan frowned, glancing at Teng Bei with a trace of irritation.
“Teng Zhuhai, are you really going to let these people serve as your shields, sending them one after another to their deaths?”
Ning Fan’s gaze turned icy cold, and with a single strike of his sword, he aimed directly at Teng Bei’s heart.
With a muffled squelch, Teng Bei’s body lurched.
His shoulder was pierced straight through by Ning Fan’s soft sword, blood soaking his right shoulder.
Yet, even then, he still managed to throw a palm strike.
Teng Bei’s full-force palm landed squarely on Ning Fan’s chest.
A tremendous force struck him, a powerful and destructive surge of True Qi flooding into his body.
Ning Fan’s expression shifted, and he was forced several steps back.
At the same time, his soft sword was pulled free from Teng Bei’s shoulder.
