Bang~~

At this moment, Vincent seized the hesitation of the crowd to swiftly strike... A punch blasted towards the nearest Great Grandmaster Level Expert, a punch of endless fury, directly smashing this expert who couldn't react in time to pieces!

"Gagarin..."

Noticing the person who walked out, the expressions of many present changed completely.

The side of the Six Major Families looked dark, gloomy, and resentful, while Vincent's side showed a faint smile... Gagarin entered the Underground Palace even earlier than him, yet Vincent hadn't seen Gagarin at all while fighting his way up, which he found quite strange.

But now that Gagarin finally appeared, Vincent's face showed a hint of relief.

No wonder, Gagarin certainly wanted to climb to high status over Vincent's dead body, but in the current situation, he would definitely stand by Vincent's side...

If he really ran to the Six Major Families' side, even if they managed to kill Vincent together, the next one to die would definitely be himself... Anyone whose brain hasn't been kicked by a donkey knows what choice to make.

Moreover, with Gagarin appearing, he killed the heavily injured Old Man Li and casually took out several Grandmaster Level Experts from the Six Major Families, already showing his choice!

"Captain, sorry for being late..."

Gagarin, with a wicked smile on his face, walked to Vincent's side, both of them looking at the three Great Grandmaster Level Experts across from them like a pack of hungry wolves...

Vincent's condition didn't seem very good at the moment. His injuries were serious, and facing the three experts, he was at a disadvantage. But if both sides were to fight desperately, Vincent could at least take down one or two of them.

With Gagarin, a Peak Grandmaster-level Expert, assisting from the side, both sides managed to maintain an equal situation... Although the three experts could kill Vincent and Gagarin by joining forces, it would be difficult for them to survive as well.

Of course, the three Great Grandmaster Level Experts were not made of paper; each one was much stronger than a Peak Grandmaster-level Expert... Old Man Li was heavily injured and did not anticipate the enemy's appearance, hence he was killed instantly.

However, these three had their Protective Gang Qi activated, which a Grandmaster Level Expert couldn't break, rendering Gagarin nothing more than a figure on display, and they didn't take him too seriously.

"One more doesn't matter, go!"

Elder Jiang, with a cold expression, pondered for a moment and exchanged a glance with the other two elders, made a decision, and lightly shouted as he moved to attack Vincent...

Vincent indeed used forbidden strength, but the three old men also employed secret techniques similar to the Three Needles Explosion. If they delayed any longer, not only would they fail to achieve their objective, but their own damage wouldn't be reduced.

Naturally, they couldn't care less about an additional person on the other side, and immediately exerted their killer moves in an all-out assault!

"Captain, leave this one to me..."

Gagarin showed no fear at all, immediately stepping forward to face the three experts head-on, his short sword in hand gleaming with a chilling light, charging forth fearlessly.

Seeming already aware of the strengths and weaknesses of the three experts, he charged directly at Elder Song, who had been heavily struck by Vincent, leaving the two strongest elders to Vincent...

"Courting death..."

Elder Song, although struck heavily by Vincent earlier, had prepared his defenses. His wounds weren't light but not too severe either, and now he used a secret technique to amplify his cultivation, which not only hadn't diminished his fighting ability but increased it instead.

This old man originally intended to kill Vincent to avenge his injury, yet unexpectedly, the person before him leapt out, killed his longtime companion Old Man Li, and dared to challenge him... How could he not be furious?

Clang~~

The Divine Sword in hand swiftly struck out, the cultivation of a Great Grandmaster Level was fully unleashed, intending to kill this opponent in one strike!

"Heh, afraid you don't have the ability!"

But just as his sword was about to pierce the opponent, the opponent executed a flicker in the air, calmly dodging... What his sword struck was merely the opponent's afterimage, holding no significance!

Vincent was also worried for Gagarin, after all, although Gagarin's power was impressive, he was not a Great Grandmaster Level Expert... But Vincent knew, Gagarin's capabilities were extremely peculiar, possessing certain unknown secret techniques.

Now seeing Gagarin effortlessly avoiding Elder Song's attack, Vincent's face showed a hint of joy!

"Kill!"

As long as Gagarin could restrain one opponent, then the remaining two... Vincent had confidence to dispatch them, or at least seriously injure them!

By then, dealing with the last Great Grandmaster Level Expert could be done at ease...

Thus, despite Vincent's serious injuries, he dared not relax for even a moment and immediately forced himself to endure the pain, charging toward the two strongest old men across from him... He was trying to buy time for Gagarin.

"Bastard!"

Elder Song's face was filled with rage. He never expected this opponent to be so troublesome... Obviously a foreigner, yet with such strange secret techniques, even someone like him, a Great Grandmaster Level expert, found it difficult to handle!

If he had to use some vocabulary to describe his opponent, despicable, shameless, vile, *lechery... these words could all apply. The opponent truly spared no effort in dealing with him!

Stealth, assassination, sneak attacks, poisoning, hidden weapons, firearms...

In just this short period, Elder Song tried almost everything. Although none caused him substantial harm, it was still enough to make him slightly alarmed... Who would've thought that in such a short time, his seemingly impenetrable Protective True Qi Shield had been broken three times!

If Elder Song's combat experience weren't incredibly rich and his strength much greater than his opponent's, he might have truly fallen victim... A Great Grandmaster Level expert without the protection of Protective Gang Qi is only stronger than a Grandmaster Level expert in terms of sheer strength!

"Heh heh, you're still a bit lacking if you want to kill me..."

Gagarin said with a sinister, evil grin, then vanished without a trace once more.

Of course, Gagarin was long gone, and this imposter naturally was Qin Fang...

But others did not know this, assuming Qin Fang was part of the Hand of the Demon, a helper for Vincent... Yet, they never suspected that besides eliminating Old Man Li, Qin Fang had also killed Chen Zhi.

However, though Qin Fang was provoking Elder Song, he consistently focused on evading rather than exposing his true strength... For example, he never released his Sword Qi or Sword Intent, let alone the Flame Sword Qi, as these would immediately alert Vincent.

He chose this elder surnamed Song as his opponent not because he thought he had time to kill him, but mainly because the elder was injured, his body slightly sluggish, and his speed lagging behind, which Qin Fang could exploit to restrain him...

The battle between Qin Fang and Elder Song was entirely a chase, somewhat like children's games... Elder Song intended to ignore Qin Fang, but whenever he tried to disengage from the fight, Qin Fang's attacks would follow.

With no other choice, Elder Song continued to chase after Qin Fang. The two continued their game of hide-and-seek, while Elder Song found himself helpless regarding the other side of the battle...

"Die~~"

"Die for me!"

While Qin Fang's side seemed playful, Vincent and the other two experts were locked in a ferocious battle, the tension palpable, with each strike intended to be fatal.

The raging Energy Aura roared, terrifying to behold... Even Qin Fang had to temporarily avoid the attack.

As for the remaining two or three Grandmaster Level experts, they retreated far away, afraid of becoming collateral damage... Though their strength might be impressive to outsiders, facing anyone here meant certain death.

Even the weakest, Qin Fang, had just instantaneously killed several of them... all in one blow!

Bang bang~~

Vincent's power was incredibly fearsome, with three top experts attacking together, putting him in extreme danger. But losing just one of these enemies changed everything... Even injured, he violently sent two old practitioners who used secret techniques flying!

The fierce punches were immensely terrifying, shattering the Protective Gang Qi of two Great Grandmaster Level experts, then the remaining power hitting their bodies... Though much of the force was dissipated, it remained formidable.

Poof~~~ Poof~~~

The two Great Grandmaster Level experts couldn't withstand the punches, instinctively spewing blood, their bodies like severed kites, rapidly flying backward... As for Vincent, after landing those punches, he could no longer pursue, standing still, gasping heavily.

Meanwhile, at this moment, Qin Fang, who had been pursued by Elder Song all along, suddenly vanished mysteriously...

"This is bad!"

Upon noticing this scene, Elder Song initially paid it no mind, considering Qin Fang had executed such tricks many times... But soon sensing something amiss, his expression changed drastically.

However, by then, it was already a little late...

Poof!!

In mid-air, a bloom of blood dispersed...

It bloomed from the chest of the strongest Elder Jiang, and his body fell powerless from the air. Even if his life wasn't completely lost, it was close enough.

"Damn it... I'm going to kill you!"

This scene drove Elder Song entirely berserk. The Longsword in his hand emitted an incredibly violent Sword Qi, hurtling toward a certain spot in mid-air, seemingly intending to pierce through that piece of sky and earth as well.
