Chapter 12993: Dark Guard Commander Jiang Zhan
Jin Yan wants to kill Jiang Lianheng.

But this guy Jiang Lianheng is so cunning that it is simply astonishing.

Faced with Jin Yan's raging attack, he not only did not choose to confront it head-on, but instead adopted the most despicable strategy of escape. He used his men as shields and took the opportunity to retreat. Every step he took seemed so decisive and ruthless.

The screams of his men who died for him were like the most miserable wails in the night sky, but they failed to bring about even a glance of pity from Jiang Lianheng.

Jiang Lianheng's heart seemed to be burned by fire at this moment, and panic and fear intertwined into an airtight net that bound him tightly. He knew that his every move was related to life and death, and the slightest mistake could lead to eternal damnation.

Sweat slid down his forehead and dripped onto the cold ground, and was instantly swallowed up without a trace, just like his current situation, isolated and helpless, with his life hanging by a thread.

His heart was filled with endless depression and resentment. The trap he had carefully designed was originally meant to capture Ling Xiao in one fell swoop and get rid of this thorn in his side.

However, things are unpredictable, and it was Jin Yan who fell into the trap, and they never saw the shadow of Ling Xiao, the prey they had dreamed of. This sudden change made him feel unprecedented frustration and anger.

What made him even more desperate was that Jin Yan's strength far exceeded their expectations and was so strong that it was suffocating. First, his father Jiang Yuan, the once majestic pillar of the family, was unable to fight back under Jin Yan's attack and died in an instant.

Now, even he himself was on the brink of life and death, and every breath was accompanied by the whisper of death.

He knew very well that if no one came to rescue him, he would have to follow in his father's footsteps and go to the underworld to reunite with his deceased father. This fear and despair, like an icy cold current, penetrated his bones and almost suffocated him.

Fortunately, he brought almost all the strong men of the Jiang family who were at the Tongtian realm this time. These strong men were clad in glittering armor, and each of them emitted a brilliance that was no weaker than that of the stars. Some of them held long spears like dragons, and some held giant blades like mountains. They were arranged in an orderly manner around Jiang Lianheng, forming an indestructible line of defense, which barely blocked the raging golden flames.

The golden flame was like a river of lava pouring down from the sky, carrying with it the momentum to destroy everything. However, under the combined efforts of these powerful men, it seemed somewhat powerless, and a barely perceptible dimness was revealed in its light.

Looking at the golden flame, it seemed a little tired at this time. It was no longer as wild and unrestrained as before. Every surge was accompanied by a slight tremor, as if it was making a final struggle with some invisible force.

The light that was originally so bright that it could melt everything now seemed a little powerless, revealing a bit of fatigue and helplessness.

Seeing this, Jiang Lianheng's tense nerves finally relaxed a little, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. It was a sense of pride at the sight of victory, and also a response to Jin Yan's provocation.

He shouted at Jin Yan, his voice full of joking and confidence: "Boy, are you tired? I'm right here, come and kill me, I won't tire you out! You want to escape today? That's impossible! Look around here, the formation I carefully arranged has blocked everything here. You are like a beast trapped in a cage, you have no choice but to wait for death."

However, just before he finished speaking, the golden flame suddenly moved. It was no longer the seemingly boundless sea of ​​fire, but turned into an extremely sharp flame, like a comet that streaked through the night sky, instantly penetrating the gap in the crowd and heading straight for Jiang Lianheng.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and the arrogance on Jiang Lianheng's face instantly disappeared without a trace, replaced by unconcealable fear and deep regret. His heart was beating wildly, and sweat slid down his forehead, dripping onto the ground, and instantly evaporated without a trace.

He secretly regretted in his heart: Why did I provoke Jin Yan for no reason? Now, even his life is at stake. This is simply courting death and asking for trouble! But now that things have come to this, regret is useless. He can only grit his teeth and prepare for the impending fatal blow.

boom!
The air at this moment seemed to be shattered by a heavy hammer, erupting with a deafening sound, shaking the surrounding space, and dust and subtle air currents danced wildly at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, a black shadow as swift as a ghost appeared silently in front of Jiang Lianheng in the astonished eyes of everyone, like the deepest guardian in the night, with unquestionable strength and determination.

The black shadow did not stop at all, and directly turned into a black lightning, colliding head-on with the golden flame's attack that was as hot as golden flame.

Jin Yan's attack was a powerful martial art that gathered all his strength and was intended to kill with one strike. However, the moment it touched the black fist shadow, it seemed to have encountered an insurmountable barrier. The light suddenly dimmed, and the power was weakened layer by layer. In the end, he could only let out a series of hisses unwillingly and was forcibly driven back.

Jin Yan's body drew a long parabola in the air, retreating more than ten steps, and each step was accompanied by a slight tremor on the ground, showing the huge impact he was bearing. His feet finally managed to stabilize, but his face was as pale as paper, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, obviously he was seriously injured.

There was both unwillingness and deep fear in his eyes, and his gaze towards the black figure was full of complexity.

"Second uncle!"

Jiang Lianheng's shout was filled with excitement and gratitude. He stepped forward quickly, almost rushing into the arms of the black figure.

The person in front of him was none other than his second uncle whom he had been thinking about day and night—Jiang Zhan, the leader of the secret guards and a legendary figure, famous for his extraordinary strength and mysterious style of doing things.

At this moment, his black armor shone with a cold luster under the dim light, which made him look more majestic and powerful, as if he was a god of war walking out of the darkness, giving people an endless sense of security.

Jiang Lianheng's eyes were filled with tears, which were the joy of reunion after a long separation, and the deep gratitude to his second uncle for showing up in time. He held Jiang Zhan's hand tightly, as if holding the safety and hope of the whole world.

As Jin Yan looked at this scene, the unwillingness and despair in his heart intertwined into a complex web.

He knew very well that if he was in his prime, he would have no problem competing with a strong man like Jiang Zhan, and he might even defeat him. But at this moment, he was at the end of his strength, and the power in his body was almost exhausted.

He wanted to escape, but when he looked around, he saw the flashing light of the formation, trapping him firmly in this area, and the exit was blocked by Jiang Zhan's steady figure like a mountain.
