Yan Tianguan gritted his teeth, his only thought now was to escape immediately, no longer pondering the exact relationship between the Human Clan and the Xingyu Clan Members.

"If I don't leave now, I'll be caught up by Yan Yuqing and Tie Yi!"

He originally thought that today he was just leading the vanguard of the Fire Demon Spirits to scout the enemy, never expecting to be ambushed by the Xingyu Clan.

Thus, he had only casually asked three martial masters of the Martial Emperor Realm to protect him, never anticipating an ambush by the Xingyu Clan.

Oh, the hatred in his heart!

At this moment, he had no will to fight, his sole thought was to leave here as quickly as possible, wanting to inform the king of the Fire Demon Spirits about all that had occurred here, to come annihilate all of the Xingyu Clan Members.

He just needed to escape!

Fear gripped his heart, weakening his momentum significantly, in his panic, he was struck by a Xingyu Clan's expert.

Yan Tianguan could not care about anything else, his only thought was to leave this place immediately.

In a flash, his body transformed into a stream of light, rapidly moving towards the direction he came from.

At this time, Duan Gujin, who had been constantly tracking him with his Divine Sense, saw an opportunity.

"He's injured!"

Duan Gujin felt a thrill of delight, when Yan Tianguan was about a hundred meters away from him, he released his right hand—long arrows shot towards Yan Tianguan with a piercing sound.

"Swish!"

Now, the long arrows he fired were less than a hundred meters from Yan Tianguan, condensed with all his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power—this was his limit.

Duan Gujin believed his long arrows were unstoppable by Yan Tianguan.

Yan Tianguan had earlier seen Duan Gujin aiming at him with long arrows, guessing that the opponent would definitely fire.

He had prepared to dodge early when he sensed Duan Gujin shooting the arrows, with a flash, he rapidly dodged to the side.

His plan to dodge was faultless, but he didn't know that the longsword was controlled by Duan Gujin's Spiritual Power.

In controlling Spiritual Power, Duan Gujin's strength was far above all other Martial Emperor Realm Martial Artists on the Fire Cloud Continent.

Swish!

Yan Tianguan dodged quickly, but the long arrows changed direction even faster.

In barely three breaths later, everyone heard a piercing scream from Yan Tianguan.

Everyone then saw a long arrow had pierced Yan Tianguan's shinbone; he looked at the arrow in his leg, forcefully pulled it out, and threw it to the ground.

After pulling out the long arrow, his body turned into a stream of light, rapidly surging forward.

He initially thought that if he promptly removed the arrow that struck him, he would be unharmed, but he didn't expect that not even ten meters later, he found himself unable to channel any Primordial Power, as if it had disappeared abruptly from his body.

Startled, he intended to introspect his body's situation with his Divine Sense.

The next moment, he saw his internal organs were completely decayed.

"My God!"

His expression drastically changed, filled with horror, he wanted to stop it all, but it was already too late.

Everyone then saw a layer of thin ice forming on Yan Tianguan's body, completely enveloping him.

Upon seeing Yan Tianguan's condition, Duan Gujin concluded that he was struck by the Hell Ice Flower and was already dead.

Just a little while later, the body of Yan Tianguan finally collapsed.

The Xingyu Clan Members all gasped in cold air, their faces filled with horror, and their hearts began pounding violently.

Among those present, especially the Queen and Tie Yi, there was a profound dread towards Duan Gujin.

They knew that Duan Gujin's strength was far superior to theirs, and that Yan Tianguan was no match for him, yet he had a way to eliminate Yan Tianguan.

In the battle between the Xingyu Clan and the Hua Hun Clan, the Xingyu Clan had never gained much of an upper hand; they simply could not find a way to destroy the Hua Hun Clan.

But today, they saw Duan Gujin, a Martial Master First Layer martial artist, being able to eliminate Yan Tianguan, who had the cultivation of a Ninth Level Martial Emperor. The shock in their hearts was indescribable.

In fact, other Martial Master First Level martial artists would simply be unable to cope with Yan Tianguan.

The reason Duan Gujin could eliminate Yan Tianguan was, on one hand, he possessed the deadly Hell Ice Flower, a poison that could kill even a Demi Immortal, let alone a mere Emperor Wu.

On the other hand, even if other Martial Artists of the same realm obtained the Hell Ice Flower, they likely wouldn't have the Spiritual Power to control the long arrows.

Even the Queen, whose cultivation had reached the Ninth Level Martial Emperor, did not have enough Spiritual Power to control the long arrows to deliver a fatal hit to Yan Tianguan.

That's why she was unable to hit Yan Tianguan in the previous battle.

Seeing Yan Tianguan's body on the ground, Yan Yuqing's mind stirred, and she struck the body with several palms from a distance.

Under the fierce force of her palms, Yan Tianguan's body was torn apart.

Only after confirming that Yan Tianguan was indeed thoroughly dead did she exhale a breath of turbid air.

She and Yan Tianguan had too much deep-seated hatred; now that she had finally eliminated him, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"We must retreat immediately!" Yan Yuqing ordered.

Yan Yuqing knew that everyone present had nearly exhausted their Primordial Power; she had to lead them to retreat immediately to a safe place, lest the reinforcements from the Fire Demon Spirits arrive.

Besides, now that they had eliminated Yan Tianguan, their primary enemy, and achieved their goal, it made no sense to continue fighting other Fire Demon Spirits.

"Wait a moment!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, just now remembering the artifact that Yan Tianguan used to communicate with the King of the Fire Demon Spirits.

He frowned slightly and scanned Yan Tianguan's fragmented corpse with his Divine Sense.

The Body affected by the Hell Ice Flower would quickly turn to ashes upon exposure to light.

So, only some fragmented clothes remained on the ground.

Soon, he found a sparkling Jade stone on the ground.

However, the Jade was now broken beyond recognition.

Besides that, Duan Gujin found no other valuables.

He did not pick up the broken Jade, but instead forcefully sucked it towards his feet, hurriedly rearranged it, and discovered some text on the fragmented stone.

"Spiritual God Jade?"

Even though the text on the broken jade was incomplete, Duan Gujin could still make out its general meaning.

"Duan Gujin, aren't you leaving?"

Yan Yuqing asked.

"I got too excited just now, I forgot to tell you not to smash Yan Tianguan's corpse, this is the treasure that he used to communicate with the King of the Fire Demon Spirits! Now that this treasure is broken, in the future, we can only tough it out against the Fire Demon Spirits!"

Duan Gujin sighed, Yan Yuqing had acted too quickly, and he had no chance to remind her.
