Chapter 10: Chapter 10: The Battle for Bloodshade City
A City Under Siege
Lin Feng and his sect members arrived at Bloodshade City, only to find it in a dire state. The city, once filled with life, now lay in ruins. The streets were empty, save for remnants of battles past, and dark-clad figures patrolled the area—members of the Shadow Serpent Sect.
Zhang Wei clenched his fists. "They've already taken control of the city?"
Mei Ling observed the surroundings carefully. "This isn't just a takeover; they're establishing dominance. We need to be cautious."
Lin Feng remained calm but resolute. "We came here for a reason. We will reclaim this place and restore order."
Taking a deep breath, he stepped forward, his voice carrying across the city.
"Shadow Serpent Sect! You have unlawfully occupied this territory. I give you one chance—withdraw peacefully, or we will be forced to take action."
A moment of silence followed. Then, from within the ruins, a figure emerged—a tall man with a commanding presence, his aura radiating a strong cultivation level.
He smirked. "And who are you to make demands?"
Lin Feng met his gaze evenly. "Someone who does not take kindly to injustice."
The air grew tense as both sides prepared for an inevitable confrontation.
The Confrontation Begins
The Supreme Sect's disciples took their positions, ready to defend themselves. The opposing sect members remained unmoved, seemingly unfazed by the warning.
Then, in a flash, Lin Feng moved. His energy surged as he engaged the enemy leader in combat, his strikes swift and precise. A powerful clash of abilities filled the air, shaking the very ground beneath them.
Zhang Wei and the others joined the fray, engaging the opposing sect members in a display of martial skill and strategy. Each side fought with determination, but it quickly became clear—the Supreme Sect had the upper hand.
Just as victory seemed within reach, a new presence descended from above. The sheer pressure of their energy caused the battle to momentarily pause.
A figure clad in dark robes appeared, their aura vastly surpassing that of the previous opponent. The leader of the Shadow Serpent Sect had arrived.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes. This was going to be a true test of strength.
A Clash of Power
The opposing leader observed Lin Feng with an amused expression. "You've done well to come this far. But do you truly believe you can challenge me?"
Lin Feng remained composed. "I don't need to believe. I'll show you."
Activating a technique provided by the system, Lin Feng's strength surged momentarily, allowing him to meet his opponent on even ground. Their exchange of attacks sent shockwaves through the area, the sheer energy illuminating the darkened cityscape.
Yet, despite his temporary boost in power, Lin Feng realized the opponent's strength was formidable. If this continued, he would be at a disadvantage.
As the battle raged, an unexpected ally arrived. A figure in golden robes descended gracefully, shielding Lin Feng from a powerful strike.
The new arrival spoke, their voice calm but firm. "I believe it's time you step back."
The enemy leader scowled. "You again?"
Lin Feng exhaled, knowing that this battle was far from over. But at least, for now, he had support.
