Zhang Lingzhizhike did not care about reason, and a fierce palm shot out towards Chen Mo, creating a decisive killing move.
Seeing this scene, the little bean sprout immediately became nervous and lifted his hands in succession to intend to let the million venomous spiders in his hand out.
At this moment, Chen Mo's face also showed a hint of tension and confusion. He stepped back, instinctively shielding the little bean sprout behind him, and raised his hands with his fists drawn but not striking.
Just as Zhang Lingzhizhike's palm was about to strike, Chen Mo had already been ready, but just at this critical moment, a middle-aged man in a silver white robe suddenly appeared and struck out with his own palm.
In an instant, the middle-aged man's palm struck back the fiercely aggressive Zhang Lingzhizhike, pushing him back dozens of steps, while he also retreated several steps.
Zhang Lingzhizhike was greatly startled and snapped back to his senses. Upon seeing the face of the person who had acted at the critical moment, his expression turned to one of astonishment.
"Song Yunfei? How...?"
Zhang Lingzhizhike was surprised to see that the person in front of him was a peer of his, Song Yunfei, who had twice defeated him from the Feiyun Academy.
At the same time, before the lunar calendar, he had also taken over the position of the head of this Feiyun Academy.
The sudden scene made Chen Mo freeze for a moment. When he heard Zhang Lingzhizhike's name, he narrowed his eyes slightly and gave a brief look at the middle-aged man who had acted out of kindness.
"Zhang Lingzhi, if you can come here, why can't I? Don't you think that your Master's Mansion can rule over Zhongzhou, and that this Zhongzhou is entirely under the control of your Master's Mansion?"
Song Yunfei smiled faintly and, facing one of the three top students of Tian Shifu, his aura was not weaker than that of the other party.
Hearing this, Zhang Lingzhi's face turned a bit ugly. He stared at the other party with fierce eyes, looking serious, "Why did you choose to help him? Don't you mean to make an enemy of me?"
Although the two have only fought three times, in the past because of their peer status, Song Yunfei had given him quite a few inconveniences and often acted against him.
Zhang Lingzhi had a bone-deep hatred for him.
"Yes, but no."
Song Yunfei shook his head gently, "In the past, I had received the guidance of the Taoist ancestor, so I have a sense of gratitude towards him. Today, seeing you want to kill him, how could I just stand by and watch?"
"Instruction?"
The little bean sprout was immediately surprised. He really did not expect that the head of the Feiyun Academy, one of the two departments under the Tianshi Palace in Zhongzhou, had also received guidance from Chen Mo.
So that means that they should be safe on this journey.
"You, nonsense, I don't believe it."
Zhang Lingzhizhike gritted his teeth and stared at Song Yunfei with a fierce expression. In his eyes, the latter was lying, and his purpose was to find a reason to make himself an enemy.
"You can believe it or not, but today I promise this person, no matter who comes, including Tian Shifu himself. This is what I said."
"You're just asking for death, don't you care that I will team up with my junior to deal with you?"
Although Zhang Lingzhizhike had won over Song Yunfei before, he had no confidence in his ability to defeat him again, especially considering that he had lost twice to him previously.
But if he could join forces with Zhang Zhuzhi, he was confident that he could easily defeat Song Yunfei.
"Why don't you look back, can your junior brother still come to help you?"
Song Yunfei chuckled lightly.
As he spoke, Zhang Lingzhi was suddenly startled and looked back, only to see that Zhao Hu had been seriously injured by Zhang Zhuzhi, lying on the ground gasping for breath.
Like a wild beast, he still wanted to fight, but at this moment, he was somewhat exhausted.
However, on the other side of Zhao Hu, his younger brother Zhang Zhuzhi was also lying on the ground. His injuries were even worse than Zhao Hu's.
Between Zhao Hu and Zhang Zhuzhi stood another person, clad in a silver white robe like Song Yunfei, but he appeared to be an elderly man with white hair and beard, his eyes sharp and piercing.
"This... This is..."
When he saw the old man, Zhang Lingzhizhike was immediately shocked to the core. The old man was none other than Song Zhong, the supreme elder of the Feiyun Academy.
The fellow who had fought with his revered master, Zhang Daocheng, the number one in the world, for three days and three nights without a winner or loser.
His actual strength was undoubtedly far superior to him.
He can't handle Song Yunfei, let alone adding another Song Zhong.
Zhang Lingzhizhike gritted his teeth and twisted his head to glare fiercely at Song Yunfei, "Song Yunfei, don't think I'm an easy target. If I want to kill you, it's as easy as pie..."
As he spoke, Zhang Lingzhizhike retreated several steps backwards, "Wait for me, don't think that my Feiyun Academy has people and that our Tianshi Palace is weaker than yours."
As he spoke, Zhang Lingzhizhike turned around and pulled the collapsed Zhang Zhuzhi, sprinting away from the scene.
"Zhang Lingzhi that brat has a bit of strength, but his mouth is too stubborn."
Song Zhong chuckled and walked towards Chen Mo with a leisurely pace.
"Feiyun Academy Song Zhong, greetings to the Taoist ancestor."
Song Zhong smiled warmly as he approached, bowing with a respectful demeanor to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo smiled and returned the greeting, "Thank you, Song Zhong, for your timely help."
"It's my duty."
Song Zhong smiled, "In the past, I and my apprentice visited the Tianlong Royal Court, and we once listened to your instructions at your door. Three hundred years have passed, and with so many people around, I suppose you might not remember us. However, this favor, both myself and my apprentice remember well."
"I see."
Chen Mo nodded slightly and slightly turned his head to look at Zhao Hu, who was collapsed on the ground behind Song Zhong, and he frowned slightly.
Song Zhong also noticed Chen Mo's thoughts and gave a look to his apprentice, Song Yunfei. The latter hurried forward, supported Zhao Hu up, and reached into his space ring to take out a spiritual pill, ready to stuff it into Zhao Hu's mouth.
"Let me do it."
Chen Mo quickly moved forward and stopped Song Yunfei. He then approached Zhao Hu and helped him to a nearby lake. Afterward, he simply threw him into the water.
"This lake is not only conducive to cultivation but also can heal injuries. I suppose you, Old Song, know about this as well."
Chen Mo smiled and said.
Song Yunfei retracted the spiritual pill in his hand and stood up, smiling, "We have never been to this otherworldly space before, so how could we know about these things?"
Song Zhong's eyes narrowed into a slit, still maintaining a smile on his face, "I've heard of it. I don't know why the Taoist ancestor would ask this."
"I guess you should know."
Chen Mo lightly waved his hand, beckoned to the little bean sprout beside him, and asked her to keep an eye on Zhao Hu under the lake. He then turned to look at the master and apprentice duo.
"Thank you both today. When I have the time, Chen Ming will definitely come to express my gratitude."
"No need to be so polite."
Song Zhong lightly waved his hand, "Since the Taoist ancestor still has things to do, let's leave first. My apprentice and I will be around here if there is a need. Just shout and we will come to your aid."
"There is no need for the two of you to go to so much trouble."
Chen Mo gently shook his head, looking at the two who were about to leave, and added at the last moment: "Oh, by the way, if you two go back, remember to tell my senior master thank you..."
Suddenly, the master and apprentice duo who were about to leave stopped in their tracks, their eyes narrowing in surprise as they stared at Chen Mo's smiling face for a long time. Their faces had lost all signs of the previous smile.
