So, Three-Star Dou Zun instinctively chose to change direction, planning to escape this place. After all, he had already suffered considerable injuries during the siege against Xiao Yan earlier.

Now that the formation had just been broken, his injuries had only worsened further. Even if he stayed to help the remaining people, the odds of defeating the opponent were extremely slim.

It was better to retreat now while he still could and save his own life.

However, Lin Feng, who had been lurking nearby in search of an opening, was never going to let him get away so easily. Just as the man turned around, Lin Feng’s elusive figure burst forth with a sharp sound that tore through the air.

In the blink of an eye, he had already caught up and appeared right in front of the man. But since Lin Feng didn’t want to expose his identity, he refrained from using any of his signature Dou Techniques.

Instead, he relied purely on his physical strength and swung a fierce punch toward the Three-Star Dou Zun.

”Soul Evil Palm!”

Seeing this, the Hall of Souls elder swiftly raised his palm and shouted sharply. In that instant, thick black mist surged over his palm, engulfing it completely. The next moment, he thrust his palm forward with full force.

As his hand fell, a massive jet-black energy palm print streaked through the air, roaring toward Lin Feng. Wherever the palm passed, the surrounding space shattered under the violent Dou Qi, revealing the dark void behind it.

Seeing the power of that Dou Technique, Lin Feng didn’t dare to be careless. He knew the man had realized his escape route was cut off and was now fighting desperately.

Therefore, a faint layer of golden light quietly covered Lin Feng’s seemingly ordinary fist.

”Boom!”

The next instant, Lin Feng’s fist collided violently with the black energy palm print midair. In that moment of impact, torrents of black Dou Qi exploded outward from the palm imprint, scattering in every direction.

In the blink of an eye, the overwhelming black Dou Qi had completely driven away the cold aura lingering in the area and then arrogantly claimed that space as its own.

Immediately after, Lin Feng’s figure, hidden beneath the black robe, was sent flying backward. He skidded through the air for over a hundred meters before finally managing to steady himself.

Anyone watching could easily tell that Lin Feng was at a disadvantage in that clash. After all, the limitations he placed on himself to conceal his identity were simply too great.

Still, although he hadn’t defeated the three-star Dou Zun, his goal had already been achieved. Because Feng Qing’er—who had just finished taking down a Five-Star Dou Zun—had now caught up.

With a graceful wave of her jade-like hand, a surge of majestic Dou Qi condensed into a shining whip out of thin air. It lashed fiercely toward the Hall of Souls elder!

In the next instant, the man was struck without any chance to defend himself. The violent Dou Qi pierced through his flesh, crushing his internal organs in an instant.

”Pff~”

Under such a devastating blow, the Three-Star Dou Zun immediately spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with chunks of viscera. Then his entire body went limp, falling lifelessly toward the ground like a bird with broken wings.

”Damn it! Failing the ambush on that bastard Xiao Yan was bad enough—why do we have to run into such powerful enemies right when we’re almost home?!”

Seeing this scene, the remaining Hall of Souls Protectors screamed in panic, quickly turning to flee.

After all, as a group of injured Dou Zong, staying here was pointless—they might as well run for their lives too. Although those people were far away, both Lin Feng and Feng Qing’er—being Dou Zun experts—clearly heard their words.

The next moment, both of their faces were filled with astonishment.

They hadn’t expected such a coincidence this time. They had chosen to strike while the Hall of Souls’s defenses were empty—planning to ambush the branch hall and seize its soul bodies.

However, the Hall of Souls members who had gone out were instead plotting to ambush Xiao Yan and eliminate him.

At that moment, Lin Feng and Feng Qing’er finally understood why so many of the opponents had been injured. It must have been from their earlier battle with Xiao Yan’s group.

As for Lin Feng, the instant he heard the name ”Xiao Yan,” his eyes flickered slightly. The next moment, his figure vanished from where he stood, bursting forward like lightning toward the three Hall of Souls Protectors fleeing together!

Before those Protectors even had time to react, Lin Feng had already appeared a short distance in front of them. Then, with a fierce tone, he said coldly, ”Since they couldn’t hold you back, I guess I’ll have to make sure none of you leave here alive.”

As his words fell, he reached out his hand, grabbing toward the three Hall of Souls Protectors.

”The enemy knows our plan! They’re countering us with our own strategy!”

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the same thought struck all three Protectors at once.

They assumed their plan to ambush Xiao Yan had been discovered in advance, and that the enemy had deliberately pretended not to know—letting them fall right into a trap.

In reality, however, the truth was that while they had gone out to ambush others, someone else had already come to attack their branch hall instead.

”Ah!”

As they were still reeling from shock, the two Protectors running at the rear were suddenly seized by Lin Feng’s hands.

The leading Protector, seeing his two comrades captured, turned pale with terror. He used every ounce of strength he had left, desperately accelerating as he fled into the thick, cold mist ahead!

Lin Feng, meanwhile, seemed to have shifted his focus to another cluster of Hall of Souls Protectors.

Seeing that the leading one had already escaped too far, he gave up the chase and instead turned toward another group of black mist figures.

The Protector who had ”luckily” escaped Lin Feng’s pursuit didn’t dare look back. He focused solely on running for his life, ignoring everyone else.

From a distance, Feng Qing’er could tell exactly what Lin Feng was doing. So she didn’t bother going after the escaping Protector either. Instead, she gracefully turned her body and flew toward Xiao Yixian’s battlefield.

”That side’s falling! We can’t handle two high-level Dou Zun at once—retreat, now!”

Seeing Feng Qing’er approaching, the Seven-Star Dou Zun of the Hall of Souls immediately shouted to the others.

As soon as he spoke, he unleashed a powerful Dou Technique toward Xiao Yixian—then swiftly turned and bolted toward the distant horizon. The other Hall of Souls experts, still barely holding on, quickly followed his example.

Each released a Dou Technique at Xiao Yixian before frantically turning to flee, as if terrified their companions would abandon them and leave them to die.

Caught off guard by the sudden barrage of more than ten Dou Techniques, Xiao Yixian was momentarily pinned down, forced to defend herself continuously, unable to give chase.

By the time she managed to free herself, most of the enemies had already vanished without a trace. Meanwhile, Lin Feng and Feng Qing’er finally arrived on the scene, a little late—just as the battle had come to its end.
