<h4>Chapter 1395: Chapter 1703: Fated Rival (2)</h4>


    Actually, this mission didn’t require too many people. However, everyone was eager to join. As for the reason... Rescuing Ling Chen was secondary; the main attraction was witnessing the confrontation between that middle-aged man and the formidable opponent.


    Even Tong Zhentian was no exception. Several Heavenly List experts were excited, eager to see what a real battle between masters would look like.


    Before long, the convoy slowly arrived outside the luxurious vi.


    The group didn’t bother to disguise their intentions, openly getting out of the cars and heading straight to the vi, observing the surroundings. Ling Kun and Tong Zhentian led the way, not even bothering to greet the guards, kicking down the vi’s iron gate and striding inside.


    Immediately, the security personnel responsible for patrolling around the vi rushed over, forming a human wall blocking Ling Kun and the others from entering.


    "Get your boss out here," Ling Kun demanded.


    A man in a suit stepped forward, nced at the crowd, and asked, "Which one is Ling Kun?"


    Ling Kun replied, "That’s me."


    "What about Tong Zhentian, Chen Junfeng, and Ji Gang? Are the three of them here?"


    Tong Zhentian frowned slightly. It seemed their guess was right; these people were well aware of the Heavenly List masters around Ling Chen, clearly intending to draw them here.


    "We’re all here, so it’s time for you to call your master out," Tong Zhentian said in a deep voice.


    "I’m right here." The voice captured everyone’s attention. They looked up and saw a person standing on the third-floor balcony of the vi. To be precise, it was a middle-aged man in in clothing, with unremarkable appearance, hardly standing out in a crowd.


    At this moment, the man was standing with his hands sped behind his back, looking down at everyone. Whoever his gaze fell upon couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts.


    How terrifying! Even for Heavenly List experts like Tong Zhentian, Ling Kun, and Chen Junfeng, they could sense the man’s formidable presence. That gaze alone was enough to defeat without a fight.


    ng!


    Just then, there was a crisp sound, followed by someone jumping down from the second-floor balcony. Seeing who it was, everyone couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.


    "Ling Chen, are you alright?"


    The oneing wasn’t someone else; it was Ling Chen, who had been kidnapped earlier. Facing the concerned gazes, Ling Chen smiled slightly, "I’m fine. They fed me well and treated me nicely. If it weren’t for thinking about my life, I wouldn’t even want to leave."


    Earlier in the room, hearing themotion outside, Ling Chen knew the rescue team had arrived. The mysterious middle-aged man merely wanted to use his presence to draw Tong Zhentian and the others over. Since everyone was here, there was no point in staying in the room; better to rush out and fight alongside them.


    "Hey!" Ling Chen raised his head, shouting at the man on the third-floor balcony, "You’ve achieved your goal, so shouldn’t you reveal your identity now?"


    "I said, you’re not worthy of knowing my name." The middle-aged man’s tone was devoid of emotion, coldly saying, "Tonight, everyone appearing within my sight must die."


    "Tsk tsk! Quite the arrogance. I say, you’d better watch it so you don’t regret itter," Ling Chen mocked.


    "Oh, really?" The middle-aged man sneered, "In that case, I’ll start with you." As he finished speaking, he lightly tapped with his toes, like an eagle spreading its wings, swooping down from the third-floor balcony at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Ling Chen, striking towards his forehead. If it hit, Ling Chen’s life would be finished.


    But at this critical moment, the alert Tong Zhentian swiftly moved forward, striking Ling Chen’s back with one hand. Suddenly, propelled by that Power, Ling Chen’s body thrust forward, narrowly evading the middle-aged man’s assault.


    Meanwhile, Chen Junfeng and Ling Kun attacked from the left and right,unching offensives from either side. Faced with their pincer assault, the middle-aged man sneered disdainfully, not taking their attack seriously. As Chen Junfeng approached, the middle-aged man tapped his feet, instantly disappearing.


    Where is he?


    Seeing this, Chen Junfeng and Ling Kun were shocked. He vanished!


    While the two were stunned, Tong Zhentian’s voice suddenly came from the side, "Watch out above."


    Hearing Tong Zhentian’s warning, the two hurriedly looked up at the sky, realizing they didn’t even know when the middle-aged man had jumped up. At that moment, the man had his feet upwards, palms downwards, striking towards Ling Kun and Chen Junfeng’s heads.


    The middle-aged man came on fiercely, moving quickly, with Chen Junfeng and Ling Kun having no time to dodge. With no other choice, they gathered all their Inner Strength, punching towards the sky.


    As flesh and fists collided, Chen Junfeng and Ling Kun, standing on the ground, sank sharply, knees slightly bending, almost knocked to the ground.


    However, seeing their flushed cheeks, although they barely withstood the attack, they wouldn’tst long. After merely a few seconds, their knees and waists bent further, almost unable to hold on.


    Beside them, Tong Zhentian, fearing they might be in trouble, tapped his toes, quickly leaping from the ground and kicking towards the middle-aged man in mid-air. Observing, onlookers expected the middle-aged man to retreat. Nevertheless, the man had no intention of retreating; as Tong Zhentian’s attack approached, he suddenly rotated his body in mid-air, spreading his legs in opposite directions to form a split.


    Suddenly, before Tong Zhentian’s foot could contact the man’s body, the middle-aged man rebounded him with a kick, sending him flying far away. At that moment, a ’whoosh whoosh’ of breaking air came from above.


    Looking closely, Zhang Zhongfeng was drawing bow and arrow not far away, shooting over ten arrows to forcefully limit the middle-aged man’s movements. Taking this opportunity, Chen Junfeng and Ling Kun, down below, quickly retreated, escaping from under the middle-aged man’s palms.


    Whew whew!


    Retreating to a safe zone, Ling Kun and Chen Junfeng breathed heavily; in those brief seconds, their clothes were almost soaked in sweat.


    Exchanging nces, Ling Kun and Chen Junfeng saw a trace of fear in each other’s eyes.


    Though they knew the opponent was powerful, experiencing it firsthand made them realize that the opponent’s power wasn’t just strong but terrifying.


    Three Heavenly List experts teamed up to attack, yet not only did they fail to inflict damage but were easily repelled instead—what kind of strength is this?
